"Did anyone encounter any danger last night?"
Zhou Yingting turned around and asked the others.
"I didn’t notice anything unusual on my end, not even the tap was turned on. I thought the Water Ghost might be giving me trouble, but after using the Barrier-Breaking Liquid, I didn’t find anything."
Song Qingyun shook his head and replied.
The others also spoke one after another, "I didn’t have any issues here."
"No problems on my side either."
"I felt like I was haunted last night."
Finally, Lin Yuxin suddenly said, "When I woke up last night, I felt like I couldn’t see anything; it was pitch black all around."
"I quickly used the Barrier-Breaking Liquid on my eyes, only then could I see things."
Lin Yuxin spoke with a face full of fear.
The darkness felt as if she was blind, so terrifying.
It was her first time experiencing what it’s like to be blind.
"It’s good that nothing happened."
Everyone exchanged glances and felt relieved. It seemed the Barrier-Breaking Liquid was indeed effective.
Judging by the amount of Barrier-Breaking Liquid allocated to them, it was enough to last until the day they left.
Thinking about it, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed, enjoying the food Song Qingyun brought while chatting.
Knowing the Water Ghost’s tricks, dealing with it in the following days became simpler.
Except at night when it tries some tricks occasionally, there were no other issues.
But these tricks were entirely ineffective against the Barrier-Breaking Liquid.
By the seventh day, the Water Ghost seemed to be in a hurry, causing unrest in all seven rooms throughout the night.
Until the sound of a rooster crowing was heard in the distance, the people in the rooms saw a flickering light beneath them, indicating the start of a teleportation mark.
Such a scene filled everyone’s hearts with joy.
Zhou Yingting also saw the word "Task Completed" appearing on his attribute panel.
The talisman in his hand began to burn automatically, turning into ashes.
When they opened their eyes again, it seemed they had returned to the small space they came from.
"So, we’ve completed the task?"
Gan Xinyang looked around with a look of joyful surprise on his face.
"Could this be another trick by the Water Ghost?"
He thought about it and spoke with some uncertainty.
"Impossible, the Barrier-Breaking Liquid’s effect should still be active, it’s impossible for this to be a trick by that ghost."
Song Qingyun shook his head immediately and saw the reward list pop up in front of him.
"Wow, ten million!!! Is this real?"
Another newcomer noticed the change on his panel, and upon seeing the ten million, his eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
So, completing this task successfully could earn ten million?
No wonder people were eager to enter this instance!
Lin Yuxin and another girl paused upon hearing this, then looked at their panels.
Upon seeing the rewards pop up, they instantly looked pleased.
"I don’t want anything else, I just want this ten million!"
The newcomer didn’t hesitate and directly chose the ten million. But when he saw the talent entries selection next, he felt a bit tense.
Previously, he had heard about these entries and knew that any talent entry would have side effects.
"Um, can’t the talent entry be chosen not to be carried, and can it be sold for money or something?"
The newcomer looked at the talent entry in front of him, feeling a bit conflicted.
The talent entry appeared promising, but he didn’t want to use it right away. Even if it couldn’t be sold for money, could he just carry it until needed before using it?
"No, if you want to carry entries, they must be obtained within the instance, and only non-designated entries can be carried, understand?"
Song Qingyun was happy to clarify, as it increased Heroic Value.
The newcomer nodded slightly, "I understand. It’s kind of like Cloud Peak or Golden Shovel, when selecting Hex entries, they can only be used by oneself, and the books dropped from monsters can be carried as desired."
Song Qingyun was momentarily stunned by the newcomer’s description before nodding silently.
Admittedly, the description was quite accurate.
Well, learned something! Next time I encounter other newcomers I’ll explain ; for those who’ve played, they’ll understand instantly.
Zhou Yingting listened to their conversation, smiled, and focused on his panel.
Instance clearance reward, choose one of three options.
Reward 1: Ten million RMB.
Reward 2: Growth Injection Potion, height +5.
Reward 3: Three-dimensional Attribute Pill, Attributes +3.
Growth Injection Potion? They even have such a thing?
Zhou Yingting glanced at it and focused on the Attribute Pill.
He’s familiar with this, but unlike last time, this Attribute Pill only increased three points of Attributes now.
Last time, Zhou Yingting completed the challenge alone and each attribute was increased by nine points.
Whatever, the Attribute Pill it is.
Zhou Yingting took the Attribute Pill without hesitation. Although not extremely wealthy, he wasn’t desperately in need of money either.
Next, it’s time to look at this entry selection.
Zhou Yingting began focusing on the entry selection, and soon three entries appeared in front of him. Discover more novels at novel✶fire.net
Entry: Blessings and Misfortunes Together.
"When you draw an entry, you gain a choice of four, but the side effect of the entry you draw is increased by one."
Zhou Yingting almost couldn’t help but want to curse upon seeing the Blessings and Misfortunes Together entry.
But after thinking a bit, his brow furrowed.
A choice of four, meaning he’ll have an extra entry to choose from during selection.
This increases the chance of finding the entry he wants, but the additional side effect is hard to swallow.
Zhou Yingting sighed, not bothering to look at the panel explaining how to resolve the entry’s side effects.
He’s struggling with one side effect, having two is just ridiculous.
With that thought, Zhou Yingting glanced towards the next talent entry.
He hoped the second talent entry wouldn’t have particularly severe side effects.
