Chapter 23 - Dungeon Cleared! The Courageous Xiao Li!
Chapter 23: Dungeon Cleared! The Courageous Xiao Li!
【Contract: Zhu Jiang (Cook)】
【Level: Ferocious Ghost】
【Yin Awareness: 2500】
【Yin Power: 36900】
【Innate Yin Artifacts: Yin Energy Apron (High Quality), Soul-Cutting Cleaver (High Quality)】
【Talent Skill: Soul-Cutting Blade Technique】
“This panel… is way too strong!” Lin Yu stared at Zhu Jiang’s panel, unable to hide his astonishment.
The ghost’s Yin Awareness and Yin Power correspond to the ghost controller’s Spiritual Awareness and Spiritual Power!
Yin Awareness and Spiritual Awareness enhance perception, or mental strength! They are equivalent to the strength of the soul or, in other words… spell power and mana!
Yin Power and Spiritual Power represent the total amount of Yin energy contained in the soul, akin to health and attack power!
His own Spiritual Awareness was only 10 points, and even after several boosts, his Spiritual Power was just 197 points!
But Zhu Jiang’s panel exceeded his by over a hundred times!
Only at this moment did Lin Yu understand… how absurd the Yellow Springs Inn was as a beginner dungeon!
The rules that ghosts needed to follow were too numerous…
Otherwise, the six of them would have long since been completely wiped out!
“Although this place looks quite shabby, it’s truly a hidden gem…” Lin Yu couldn’t help but exclaim.
However, for him, the Yellow Springs Inn was relatively friendly!
After all, only the stronger ghosts with greater Yin Awareness have stronger intelligence.
In other words, a ghost’s Yin Awareness was different from a human’s Spiritual Awareness. It not only enhances perception but also IQ!
If it were an ordinary ghost, they might not think too much of Lin Yu’s considerable wealth, assuming he had a deep background and was playing dumb.
It was precisely because every ghost in the Yellow Springs Inn had a notable history and strength that they were so cautious about their lives, wary of Lin Yu’s “abnormal” behavior!
On the other hand, after establishing the contract with Lin Yu,
due to the existence of the perfect-level ghost binding contract, Zhu Jiang couldn’t perceive Lin Yu’s true level!
Instead, he felt Lin Yu was even more unfathomable and admirable!
At the same time, his initial favorable impression of Lin Yu was amplified by the perfect-level ghost binding contract!
With the presence of a ghost binding contract, the contracted party cannot resist or harm the contracting party.
The perfect-level ghost binding contract further prevents any malicious thoughts from arising!
Lin Yu withdrew his gaze from the cook ghost Zhu Jiang’s 【Attribute Panel】 and looked at Zhu Jiang, whose eyes were shining with excitement!
“Brother Lin… no, Master! From now on, Zhu Jiang will follow you!” Zhu Jiang said in a hearty manner.
Lin Yu smiled slightly and took out two more bottles of Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine from his pocket, “Don’t be so formal; just call me Brother Lin!
“In the future, I’ll be relying on you a lot… such a delightful occasion calls for us to drink together! Let’s toast!”
Lin Yu hadn’t had any Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine today, so he seized the opportunity to drink!
The cook Zhu Jiang caught a whiff of the intoxicating aroma of the wine that had haunted his dreams since yesterday, his eyes lighting up!
Remembering Lin Yu’s earlier words about plenty of fine wine, he found Lin Yu more and more likable.
“Great! Then I’ll drink first!” Zhu Jiang took the wine bottle and downed it in one go!
Lin Yu also drank down all of the Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine, boosting his Spiritual Awareness and Spiritual Power!
【Spiritual Awareness: 20】
【Spiritual Power: 297】
Lin Yu looked at his progress towards becoming a second-level ghost handler and couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased!
Sure enough, what the bearded man said was true…
Horror games were indeed filled with opportunities!
Originally, Lin Yu didn’t think he would actively enter horror games in the future, but it seemed now that… with the system at his side, that day might actually come!
After subduing Zhu Jiang, the second-in-command of the Yellow Springs Inn, and becoming a true ghost handler… the Yellow Springs Inn dungeon would naturally pose no further challenges!
Lin Yu then wandered around the Yellow Springs Inn, and soon awaited the dungeon’s conclusion!
During this time, he noticed that the number of survivors in the crimson text had decreased by one!
[Survivors: 3]
After casually inquiring, he learned that the mature woman had accidentally bumped into a guest while cleaning and was torn to pieces!
This caused Lin Yu to temper the inflated confidence he had just gained.
No matter how much he had the system at his side… this was still a horror dungeon! A place where ghosts roamed!
Wealth wasn’t everything! Zhu Jiang wasn’t invincible!
In a beginner dungeon, with seasoned experts like the bearded man and someone like him who had a cheat… half of the participants had still perished!
This left Lin Yu with a lot to think about.
As the dungeon concluded, while passing through the lobby,
Lin Yu was suddenly called out!
“Wait, Brother Lin!”
Turning around, Lin Yu saw the blushing Xiao Li, though he couldn’t tell if her rosy cheeks were from shyness or running.
“Thank you… without you, I probably wouldn’t have survived the first day!”
Shyly, Xiao Li bit her lip, and in the end, she stuffed a piece of paper into Lin Yu’s hand.
“Um, I’m from Jiangcheng in reality… my family has some connections there, so if you need help in real life, you can call this number!”
Before Lin Yu could say anything…
[Dungeon ‘Yellow Springs Inn’ concluded!!!]
[Congratulations, player, for completing the mission!]
After the crimson text appeared, Lin Yu returned to his home!
Clutching the warm piece of paper in his hand, Lin Yu touched his nose.
“Am I… being flirted with?”
