A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

Zhou An also felt a slight warmth in his palm.

Most importantly, the inscriptions on the watchtower began to flash.

It only flashed a few times before going out.

Because most of the inscriptions are already blurred and illegible.

Upon seeing this, Zhou An immediately pressed his hand against the watchtower, activating the horse talisman once more.

In the next instant, the inscriptions blurred, and the base, covered in wounds, was restored to its latest state.

Almost instantly, all the inscriptions lit up and then connected, making it seem as if the entire tower was glowing.

"Tonight, it's all set!" Zhou An smiled.

"Let's get some food first. It's a pity our inventory is restricted. Otherwise, we could have food freedom as soon as we got the Food Tablecloth." Zhou An sighed.

Zhou An immediately went downstairs.

"I was thinking of fixing the door, but I didn't expect you to repair it directly with the horse talisman." The benevolent entity said with a smile as soon as it saw Zhou An come down.

Zhou An smiled and then looked at the gate.

The iron gate, which was originally somewhat dilapidated and rusty, has now been restored to its original appearance.

Once the iron bolts are inserted, even siege towers would have a hard time breaking through them.

"Safety is not a problem for now. Old Evil, go outside and see if you can hunt some wild game."

"Old Shan, go chop some firewood and come back. We'll stay here for the night and see what's going on in this world," Zhou An instructed.

The two nodded and then went their separate ways.

……

Time flew by, and it was already six o'clock in the evening.

The sun hadn't set yet, and the sky was still quite bright.

But as soon as it hit six o'clock, the sky darkened instantly, and then turned into a pitch-black night.

Zhou An was currently sitting on the watchtower above the watchtower with his clone.

The night fell suddenly and without warning, leaving all three of them stunned.

The next second, the runes on the watchtower suddenly lit up.

The flame above their heads also began to burn fiercely.

A burst of intense light erupted instantly, directly enveloping an area of ​​one kilometer in radius.

Within this area, it is as bright as day.

Once you go beyond a kilometer, it becomes endless darkness, and you can't see anything at all.

"It's so dark."

"It's so bright."

The benevolent and malevolent entities spoke at the same time.

Chapter 110 Caravans in the Night

Zhou An's gaze fell on the flame. It was bright, but not at all dazzling; the light was very soft.

"Roar~~!"

Suddenly, a series of roars erupted from the darkness.

Zhou An's gaze sharpened instantly, then he looked into the darkness.

However, in the darkness, it was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face and couldn't see anything at all.

"It seems there are monsters in the darkness." The malevolent entity stood up, gazing into the distance, somewhat eager to try.

"What do you think is the connection between this instance and the bizarre world?" Zhou An asked the two of them.

"Who cares about the connection? I'll go into the shadows and kill some people to see what kind of bastards are coming."

The malevolent entity waved its hand, indicating that it would rush into the darkness to fight the monster as soon as Zhou An gave the order.

“There must be a connection, but we have too little information right now. The newly acquired monkey talisman should allow us to transform into monsters and enter the darkness to investigate,” the benevolent entity said in a deep voice.

"No rush, let's see if those monsters can break through the range of the fire's illumination." The night is long, and Zhou An has enough time to gather information.

The three of them stood on the watchtower, quietly observing the edge of the area.

In less than fifteen minutes, the roars grew closer, and they could even hear the thunderous footsteps.

The footsteps sounded like a thousand horses galloping, and the earth seemed to tremble.

Strangely, all the monsters stopped outside.

"Roar~~!" Monsters roared continuously in the darkness, without crossing the line in the slightest.

Suddenly, a sharp claw covered in scales emerged from the darkness and probed into the area of ​​the light barrier.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle~~!" Almost instantly, black smoke rose from the claws.

"Ughhhhh!" A low, painful roar came from within.

The claw quickly retracted.

Before it retracted, Zhou An could see the scales of the claw rapidly melting away.

If it had lingered for even a second longer, that arm would have been gone.

Clearly, the light of the fire is extremely lethal to monsters in the darkness.

"That monster's aura feels somewhat familiar," the benevolent entity said.

The malevolent entity frowned, remained silent, and simply lowered its head in deep thought.

"It does look somewhat familiar," Zhou An nodded.

"Oh my god, isn't this an evil spirit?" the evil entity suddenly realized, slapping its thigh and shouting.

In the Yin-Yang Affairs Bureau instance, most of the time it's the malevolent entities that deal with the sources of pollution and the eerie demons.

Therefore, evil spirits are more familiar with evil ghosts.

"A demon? A demon from the wilderness of a strange world?" Zhou An's heart skipped a beat.

To be honest, that aura was indeed quite similar to that of an evil spirit.

"So, the monsters in the darkness are the evil spirits of the wilderness, but this is a dungeon of the Eternal Night Continent..." The benevolent entity stroked its chin and pondered.

“Evil spirits have no intelligence; they only know how to kill. If you want to know more, you can only ask a local native,” Zhou An said slowly.

"Old Evil, go out into the darkness and check the situation to make sure those monsters aren't really evil spirits," Zhou An instructed the evil entity.

“Leave it to me,” the malevolent entity said, patting its chest.

Then the malevolent entity twisted and contorted, eventually transforming into a giant eyeball covered in eyes.

This is the appearance of the evil spirit they first dealt with at Bear Corpse Ridge.

The malevolent entity exuded a strange and eerie aura.

If Zhou An hadn't known that the other party was his own evil thought, he probably would have already attacked.

"Old evil, is the light from this fire harmful to you?" Zhou An looked up at the fire and asked.

The malevolent entity shook its head: "It has no effect, and I haven't sensed anything else unusual."

"It seems the Fire Seed still considers you a human being. Then go and find out what's going on," Zhou An said in a deep voice.

The malevolent entity nodded, then leaped directly from the sky. In the instant it jumped, the malevolent entity transformed into an eagle.

With a flap of its wings, the eagle took flight and soared into the sky, heading straight ahead.

As it disappeared into the darkness, I felt a chill sweep over my entire body.

The malevolent entity's eyes still couldn't see anything; it was pitch black all around.

Immediately, its body twisted again, transforming into the same eye-shaped monster as before.

The next instant, light appeared in my field of vision.

It was a blood-red world, covering the mountains and plains, filled with terrifying and bizarre monsters.

Each of the strange monsters is different, but they all exude the aura of evil spirits.

The evil thought fell into the clutches of evil spirits without attracting their attention.

They all circled around the fire, one ring after another.

They wanted to rush into the fire's range, but were restrained by the fire's protective shield and dared not enter at all.

Further away, large numbers of evil spirits continued to advance into the darkness.

That direction is towards the village.

Zhou An was not worried about any danger to the village.

In the center of the village there is a place that looks like a campfire, obviously used to burn fire and dispel the darkness.

It seems that this world is normal during the day, but at night it falls into darkness and is invaded by strange creatures.

As for why it's called the Eternal Night Continent, Zhou An thought of a very tragic outcome.

It is highly likely that human civilization in this world has been destroyed, and this continent has fallen into eternal darkness, completely occupied by evil spirits.

The eternal night—isn't that the continent of Eternal Night?

Zhou An withdrew his gaze and began to ponder his next plan.

As soon as it was light, he would rush back to the village, grab someone at random, interrogate them about the state of the world, and then make a decision.

It all depends on what the tasks are in the second phase.

"Old Shan, you stay outside and keep watch. I'm going downstairs to rest for a while." After saying that, Zhou An walked towards the stairwell.

"Okay." The benevolent being nodded.

Back at the rest room at the bottom of the tower, it was pitch black inside.
