The host has entered a dungeon. Cheat loading successful.
Please choose one of the following three cheats.
1. Unlimited Soul Coins: Start with 1,000,000,000,000 Soul Coins, which may be spent freely.
2. Hundredfold Boost: Increase any single attribute by a hundredfold. Attributes may be switched at any time.
3. Stone Man: You will become an utterly ordinary, unremarkable stone with no sense of presence whatsoever. You may safely clear this dungeon.
"Hm?" Mu Rufeng stopped in his tracks, somewhat surprised.
How should he put it? This time's three cheats were amazing!!!
Mu Rufeng pondered them carefully before ultimately choosing the first cheat: Unlimited Soul Coins.
The reason he chose it was naturally because he had already learned just how important Soul Coins were in the Oddity World.
First of all, according to the information, Oddity Dungeons were basically interconnected, and together they formed one enormous Oddity World.
The Oddity World had its own order, and Soul Coins were its currency.
All items, props, and even contracted ghostly entities required Soul Coins.
Most importantly, Soul Coins also contained ghostly energy, with the concentration determined by the coin's denomination.
The higher the denomination of a Soul Coin, the more powerful the ghostly energy it contained.
After Mu Rufeng killed the four ghosts in Room 302, he had only received 325 Soul Coins because they had absorbed the ghostly energy within the coins to strengthen themselves.
Of course, they also kept some Soul Coins to buy everyday necessities.
That was why they did not have many Soul Coins on them.
Money could make ghosts grind millstones. This saying was useful not only in the real world, but even more so in the Oddity World.
One trillion Soul Coins! Mu Rufeng wanted to experience being a ridiculously wealthy protagonist too.
As for the second cheat, a hundredfold boost—even a thousandfold boost would not be of much use against certain bizarre ghostly entities.
The second cheat was the first one Mu Rufeng crossed off.
As for the third cheat, it was genuinely interesting. A Stone Man, with the attributes of an invisible person, able to safely pass through this dungeon.
If all he wanted was to clear the dungeon, choosing this would absolutely be the best option.
However, Mu Rufeng did not want to receive the lowest possible 100% completion rating.
Thus, Mu Rufeng chose the option that gave him one trillion Soul Coins at the start.
After choosing his cheat, nothing happened.
This left Mu Rufeng slightly puzzled. Then, under the conductor's urging, he slowly walked into the carriage.
After entering the carriage, Mu Rufeng surveyed the situation inside.
He discovered that there were not many passengers.
There were only three living people in this carriage: the two who had entered earlier, plus Mu Rufeng himself.
There were only ten oddity passengers as well.
One had to know that this carriage could seat more than a hundred people.
Thus, the dim carriage appeared empty and desolate, carrying an eerie air.
It reeks. Ripples stirred in Mu Rufeng's heart.
The moment he entered the carriage, he smelled a stench that was a mixture of many odors.
There was the stink of dead fish and rotten shrimp, the stench of corpses, and an even stronger scent of blood.
Those smells were mixed with several unidentifiable stenches, making them truly hard to endure.
Combined with the surroundings, they made Mu Rufeng feel slightly nervous.
After all, this was only his second time entering a dungeon. Two days ago, he had merely been an ordinary wage slave.
Mu Rufeng recalled his Bloodthirsty attribute.
Bloodthirsty: After this state is triggered, you become irritable and volatile, forget fear, and your sense of pain is reduced by 50%. Note: This state can only be triggered by consuming blood.
He immediately gritted his teeth and bit through the tip of his tongue.
The taste of blood filled Mu Rufeng's mouth.
A strange sensation rose from the depths of his heart.
Fear? Panic? Both vanished without a trace, replaced by bloodthirst.
A flash of crimson passed through Mu Rufeng's eyes.
Sure enough, drinking his own blood could also trigger the Bloodthirsty state.
As for how long it lasted, Mu Rufeng had never tested it. But that did not matter—his tongue would just have to suffer a little.
Very soon, Mu Rufeng found his seat. It was on the left side of the carriage, a pair of seats together.
"Excuse me, please move aside. My seat number is 20."
Mu Rufeng spoke politely.
His was the window seat on the inside, while Seat 19 beside it was next to the aisle.
An old granny sat in Seat 19.
Naturally, this old granny was not a living person, but an oddity.
The old granny glanced at Mu Rufeng and said, "This old woman does not like living people sitting beside me. Go somewhere else."
As she spoke, the old granny opened the lid of the bamboo basket she held in her arms.
A rich scent of blood rushed at him.
Inside was a human head—the head of a middle-aged man, blood flowing from all seven orifices, his expression peaceful.
"Son, come out and get some air." The old granny spoke as she took out the human head.
The head's eyes suddenly snapped open. Detecting the scent of a living person, it immediately locked onto Mu Rufeng and stared at him intently.
"Mommy, I want to eat meat. His meat smells so good. I really want to eat it." Strangely, the head spoke in the voice of a young child.
"Be good, son. It is not time to eat yet. Wait a little longer." The old granny said with a smiling face.
"Okay, Mommy. Put me down. I want to move around." The head spoke again.
"Alright, alright, I'll put you down." The old granny immediately placed her head-son on Seat 20.
Mu Rufeng watched this scene without any change in expression.
Though it was somewhat terrifying, it was entirely within what Mu Rufeng could accept now.
Perfect. I can test that Rule Skill too, Mu Rufeng thought.
But how could he make this oddity his enemy?
Mu Rufeng did not overthink it. He directly tried activating the Rule Skill, You Die, I Live.
You Die, I Live. Skill activated successfully. The enemy has died. All attributes increased by onefold. Duration: one hour. You Die, I Live. Skill activated successfully. The enemy has died. All attributes increased by twofold. Duration: one hour.
Almost instantly, Mu Rufeng felt the strength within his body surge to twice its previous level.
He swiftly opened his personal panel.
Name: Mu Rufeng Age: 24 Level: LV1 Strength: 42 (14+14+14) Spirit: 33 (11+11+11) Constitution: 42 (14+14+14) Contract Slot: None Skill: You Die, I Live Props: Fragrant Bandages, Resentful Cleaver, Dorm Manager's Secret Recipe Candle x2, Matches, Singing Mouth Soul Coins: 10000000004178
Sure enough, his attributes had increased by twofold.
As for the one-hour duration, he was not surprised in the slightest.
After all, if there were no time limit, it would be a truly godlike skill.
"The train is about to depart. Passengers who have not taken their seats, please do so as soon as possible!"
"The train is about to depart. Passengers who have not taken their seats, please do so as soon as possible!"
"The train is about to depart. Passengers who have not taken their seats, please do so as soon as possible!"
The train's announcement sounded three times in a row.
"Mr. Head, please make some room."
Mu Rufeng held the cleaver in his hand, a kind smile on his face.
"Oh? You want to make a move? Come on, chop off this old woman's head." The old granny was not flustered in the slightest. She even stretched out her neck for Mu Rufeng to chop.
Yes, it truly stretched out very long. The old granny's neck extended nearly a meter, looking utterly bizarre.
The old granny transformed into a Long-Necked Oddity, her eyes fixed excitedly on Mu Rufeng.
She seemed to be eagerly anticipating Mu Rufeng making a move.
Naturally, Mu Rufeng did not attack.
Among the rules Qu Lianhong had told him was one: inside the train, attacking living people was forbidden.
These past few days, the number of follow-up readers has not increased much. I want to cry. Follow-up readership is an important metric for a new book. So for the next few days, I'll add one extra chapter every day. Please turn to the final page of the latest chapter each day—the page where you see the follow-up readership ranking.
Only with higher follow-up readership can this book continue. I can only rely on all of you. Also, please vote with monthly tickets and recommendation tickets. Xiao Wen thanks you all here!
