Chapter 506 Entering the Land of Dead Souls
[Dungeon goal: Survive in the Dead Soul Land for one month. 】
[Note 1: There will be no settlement rewards at the end of this instance. All players who have survived for one month will be forced to leave the Dead Soul Land immediately. 】
[Note 2: In the Land of Dead Souls, you can obtain benefits in a variety of ways, such as killing monsters and blasting equipment, robbing tombs to obtain treasures, purchasing from NPC stores, NPC teaching skills, and NPC granting titles. They can all be brought back to the main world by players. 】
[Note 3: The Land of Dead Souls is highly dangerous, with most areas being dangerous areas and only a few areas being safe areas.
Danger areas must have potential benefits for players to obtain, and generally speaking, the more dangerous the area, the higher the potential benefits.
There may also be benefits available in the safe zone, but the safe zone is not absolute and may turn into a dangerous zone under certain circumstances. 】
[Note 4: This copy has canceled the penalty level mechanism, and players will not enter the punishment level even if they fight each other maliciously. 】
[It is detected that you are an SVIP player. You can choose your initial identity from the following options. 】
[Exorcist: You are an exorcist who came to the Land of Dead Souls to hone yourself. For you, dealing with incorporeal evil spirits is relatively simple, but you know that there are some terrifying evil spirits in the Land of Dead Souls that even you don’t want to face. right.
All your damage to evil spirits is increased by 33%, and your physical attacks can cause 18% damage to evil spirits. 】
[Ghost Hunter: Rather than destroying ghosts, you are more willing to capture and tame them and make them work for you, so you came to the land of dead souls where there are many ghosts.
When you kill a ghost, there is a 50% chance of getting the corresponding summon. 】
[Zombie Refiner: You are a corpse lover, keen on cultivating powerful zombies, and are also very good at dealing with zombie monsters. When you encounter a zombie, you can choose to subdue it, but the stronger the zombie, the more likely it is to resist, and you need to suppress it with force. 】
[Descendant of the Zombie King: It is said that one of your ancestors became the Zombie King. Your connection with the Zombie King's bloodline makes ordinary zombie monsters stay away from you. Even if you attack them, they will only run away and dare not resist.
But please be careful not to be discovered by your ancestors. The zombie king likes to devour the flesh and blood of descendants. Once it smells your breath, it will definitely bring great danger. 】
[Temple King: You are born under the protection of a temple. When you find a temple, as long as you clean it up and obtain ownership, you can transform the temple into a fixed safe zone. No monsters or monsters can harm you unless you leave the temple. 】
[Shenhan: You are proficient in divination related to ghosts. You can rely on divination to know the number and activity routes of ghosts in the area in advance, so as to seek good fortune and avoid disaster.
However, divination is not always a success and may sometimes lead you astray. To reduce the risk of overturning, please do divination no more than three times a day.
This status limits male options. 】
[Ghost: You are proficient in the art of communicating with ghosts and gain the ability to communicate with some ghosts.
But please remember that most ghosts are full of malicious intentions, so you should have as little contact with them as possible.
This status limits women's choices. 】
At this time, Wang Zhifan had entered the copy world.
He found that he was standing under a dark sky, with the dry earth beneath his feet. A few loess graves with cracked tombstones could be faintly seen among the weeds not far away. A melancholy female song was coming from the woods further away. Farther away are the rolling black mountains.
"There are no settlement rewards, but you can get rewards from the dungeon... I remember playing this type of dungeon."
After browsing the text information on the light screen in front of him, Wang Zhifan recalled that he had experienced a similar copy a long time ago.
That dungeon also had no settlement rewards, but he obtained the Supreme Blood, Rogge's Heritage, Demonic Dragon Armor, Monster Nest and other good things from it, and the benefits were greater than ordinary dungeons.
This means that not having a settlement reward is not necessarily a bad thing. Although his special advantage is gone, it can be made up for by personal efforts.
"Choose an identity first...soul killer, ghost hunter, descendant of King Zombie... I think they are all useful."
As usual at the start of the dungeon, he was slightly entangled in the choice of the initial identity of the dungeon and analyzed it one by one.
"The spirit remover increases the damage to evil spirits. I don't lack this... The ghost hunter can obtain ghost summons with a probability. I am not a summoner... The corpse refiner can subdue zombies. I am not interested...
The descendant of the Zombie King is a double-edged sword. It is not afraid of ordinary zombies, but will be chased by the Zombie King. Choose it and then deliberately lure the Zombie King out? Maybe it's an idea to get rewards...
The temple prince can turn the temple into a safe zone, which is most suitable for the survival purpose of the dungeon... The divine man can divine the location information of ghosts and monsters, which is convenient for finding target explosive equipment... The hag cannot be selected only for women..."
After a moment's thought, Wang Zhifan eliminated the four categories of spirit remover, ghost hunter, corpse refiner, and hag, and chose among three: the descendant of the zombie king, the temple prince, and the divine man.
His idea is very simple. He mainly considers personal safety and reward acquisition, and chooses the most suitable one.
"The descendants of the Zombie King feel a little less effective than the Temple Prince and the Divine Man...
The temple prince has the strongest survival ability. As long as he performs well, he can hide in the temple for a month and pass the level...
The divine man can advance or retreat, and knowing the intelligence of ghosts and ghosts is a great advantage, as long as you don't abuse divination...
I'd better choose the divine man. According to my situation, I shouldn't be able to sit back and do nothing for a month. "
In the end, Wang Zhifan determined the initial identity of his copy as Shenhan. The information on the light screen in front of him disappeared without a trace, and some strange information appeared in his mind.
It was a strange ritual that required the shaman to light a fire and incense, smear mud on his face, and then dance like crazy beside the fire to get the divination information.
"Oh my god... I have to dance for divination? And such a weird dance... I would have chosen the temple king if I had known!"
For a moment, Wang Zhifan felt cheated. He didn't expect that he had to do it for real to choose the identity of a shaman. It was simply challenging his personal aesthetic perception.
But he had no choice since he had chosen it. He could only accept the reality and prepare for action. He planned to dance the shaman once when no one was around, so as to get information about ghosts in the surrounding area first.
But there was a requirement in the shaman dance that he couldn't meet for the time being, that is, to light incense.
He could light a fire and easily find mud to smear on his face, but he didn't have incense in his portable space.
Looking around, when he was thinking about whether to use branches and hay instead, he found that there seemed to be something stuck in front of the broken tombstones in the weeds. He walked over and saw that it was a few incense sticks that went out before they were burned out.
"It's true that whatever you need is available... But this incense seems to be difficult to take. The owner of the grave will definitely be unhappy if you take it."
When he arrived at the grave, Wang Zhifan confirmed that there were evil beings in the grave mounds, and there were in every grave mound, just by relying on his extraordinary perception.
They are currently in a dormant state, and for some reason they have not launched an attack, but it can be expected that once they are offended, the peace will be broken.
He is not sure about the strength of these things. They may not be very tricky, but he has to consider the chain reaction.
Because there are things in more than just these grave mounds in this area, in the dense forest not far away, and in the dark mountains farther away, he can feel a lot of more evil auras. Once he acts casually, it is likely that the stability of the surrounding area will disappear.
"According to the copy prompt information, this initial location should be a safe zone, at least for now...
If I act rashly, this safe zone may directly become a dangerous zone...
Forget it, I'm new here, I'd better keep a low profile and get to know the basic environment first before I start."
After thinking about it, Wang Zhifan decided to play it safe. It's not that he was afraid of something, but it was too reckless to start a war right after entering the copy. It was not his style.
So he decisively gave up the idea of dancing on the spot, did not take the incense in front of the broken tombstone, and turned to the direction of the dark mountains in the wasteland.
Looking around, no matter which direction he walked, the farthest distance was the dark mountains, as if a fierce ghost surrounded a piece of land, an ominous place.
With great vigilance, he stepped on the dry ground, and soon passed by the dense forest and slowly stopped.
At this moment, the woman's desolate cry was still heard in the dense forest, which was very creepy but contained a special temptation, tempting people passing by to enter the dense forest.
Wang Zhifan was not affected by the woman's singing because his personal attributes exceeded the standard and he also had the title of Overlord and other immune control things.
He stopped completely on his own initiative because he found that there were other things in the dense forest besides the evil aura.
"Help... Save me..."
He vaguely heard another subtle voice mixed with the crying. The voice was very small, but it was hard to ignore for people with his hearing ability. It was definitely not an illusion.
"Someone in the forest is asking for help... It seems to be a real person. He doesn't have that kind of evil aura."
Generally, when encountering such a situation, everyone will react first that there is a problem and think that the evil existence in the dense forest is playing an attractive trick.
But Wang Zhifan's perception is so strong that ordinary people can't imagine it. He can directly discover many subtle things and make more accurate judgments.
Without much hesitation, he turned and went to the dense forest, holding the legendary Qingdi Sword in his hand, and took a steady step.
This decision was not because he was kind, but it was obvious that there might be indigenous residents in the dense forest, that is, NPCs, and he couldn't easily let go of the opportunity to contact NPCs.
In a few seconds, as he got closer and closer to the dense forest, the sad cry of the woman that had been coming from it became clearer, and the voice asking for help also increased slightly.
When he really stepped into the dense forest, the light around him instantly became darker, and the two sounds intertwined together, forming a particularly creepy experience, as if he had stepped into a forest of female ghosts.
Wang Zhifan knew very well that there was really a female ghost in this forest, but at present the female ghost did not show much intention to attack. She hid in the depths of the dense forest and cried alone, ignoring the guests who came to the forest, otherwise there would be no living people here.
Relying on the guidance of the cry for help, Wang Zhifan passed through the outermost trees of the dense forest. After a while, he stopped in front of a big tree and looked up at the trunk.
There was a person hanging on the tree. It was a rustic boy in his teens wearing green cloth clothes. He was hung in the air with branches wrapped around his neck and shoulders, and his lips moved slightly and weakly asked for help.
If other people suddenly saw this scene in the forest, they would probably think that they had found a hanged person and were scared to death.
But Wang Zhifan already knew that the person hanging was alive, so he looked very calm.
He then raised his hand and flicked his fingers, accompanied by the invisible sword energy, and the rustic boy in blue clothes hanging on the branch fell to the ground, and he reached out and grabbed him and put him on the ground.
"Little boy, how did you get hung up there?"
After saving the man, even though he knew there were ghosts not far away, Wang Zhifan couldn't help asking a question.
"Thank you for saving me! I'll tell you when I get out!"
The rustic boy in blue pulled the branches and leaves off his neck with all his strength while thanking them. He ran out of the forest as soon as he cleared the entanglements on his body.
Wang Zhifan followed him and confirmed that the boy did not deviate into the depths of the dense forest. He ran out of the forest 20 meters away before stopping.
"Huhu... I finally got out! Thank you for saving my life just now!"
After coming out, the rustic boy in blue gasped with a look of surviving a disaster on his childish face.
"No need to thank me, how did you get hung up?"
Wang Zhifan knew that the child's thinking was jumping, so he asked again.
This time the boy immediately gave an explanation:
"I was chased to this forest by an evil ghost in my dream, and then I was hung up by the ghost!
Luckily, I have this amulet given by my grandma, so the ghost can only trap me but not kill me...
Oh no, my amulet is broken!"
The boy took out a jade pendant from his collar, and the pendant was split vertically in half as soon as he took it out. The color of the cross section also changed from crystal green to a little black.
"In a dream?"
Wang Zhifan couldn't help feeling a little confused after hearing this. He couldn't understand what the child meant.
Because there was obviously a problem with the logic, maybe children's words were not rigorous.
"It was in a dream! Judging from your appearance, you just came here, right? I'll take you to our village and tell you on the way..."
The rustic boy in blue said and led him towards the dark mountains in the distance, his steps were very fast.
Wang Zhifan knew that he had triggered the NPC to point the way, and the village pointed by the other party must be a key location, so he followed without hesitation.
On the way, the little boy talked to Wang Zhifan about a lot of things, which deepened Wang Zhifan's understanding of this dungeon world.
For example, the boy's previous dream of being hung on a tree meant that he was accidentally spotted by an evil ghost while sleeping at night. The evil ghost broke into his dream and chased him into the woods. Then the evil ghost turned the dream into reality and hung him on the tree. Fortunately, he was wearing the amulet left by his grandmother so he was not killed.
For example, the place they were going to was called Xiaohe Village. Xiaohe Village was the only place where living people gathered and lived in the surrounding area. It was relatively safe most of the time, and you could buy a lot of things that could help deal with ghosts. It was a treasure land that people who came to the dead soul land could not miss.
