Chapter 29 The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village (Please continue reading)

This allocation of points may not be the most perfect solution.

Or rather, Lu Ming could not predict what would happen in the future, nor could he find a so-called perfect solution.

But it's not a big problem; as long as you challenge the horror movie dungeon, you can continue to gain attribute points.

As soon as Lu Ming had a thought, the points were added, and the transparent panel in front of him was refreshed.

[Available points: 0 points]

[Mental Strength: 24 points]

[Stamina: 1]

【Strength: 2】

【Speed: 3】

【? ? ? 】

After completing the skill point allocation, Lu Ming immediately felt as if his previously lifeless body had been awakened, and his pale complexion improved considerably.

His thinking is clearer, and he is less likely to be disturbed or affected by external terrors or crises.

"As expected of the power from the Main God Space, these changes to me were made directly from an extremely high level... It's as if an invisible hand is adjusting me."

After completing this skill point allocation, Lu Ming followed Chen Xin and the others to the various orbs of light, some large and some small.

These floating orbs of light cannot be chosen arbitrarily; the world that appears each time is random.

Just like the instance [A Nightmare on Elm Street] that I saw when I first came to the Main God Space, it did not appear this time.

Instead, other new copies have appeared.

"Huh? This time, a seven-star ghost dungeon actually appeared?" Chen Xin looked somewhat surprised, because in this God Space, the most difficult dungeon is an eight-star red dungeon, and so far, no one has been heard of actually seeing one.

The dungeon, named Ju-on, emitted a crimson-gold light, eerie and malevolent, sending chills down one's spine simply by getting close.

"Forget it, these things don't concern us much. The Seven Star Dungeon is still too terrifying."

Chen Xin shook her head, not letting her gaze linger on the Ju-on dungeon.

Although Huang Mao Zheng Yaozu did not look in Lu Ming's direction, his words implied that Lu Ming was dragging them down: "With our original team configuration, it would not have been difficult to take down a three-star difficulty dungeon, but now... I'm afraid we can only challenge two stars."

Wanting the extra reward of helping newbies clear the dungeon but not wanting to take responsibility, even Wu Lei, the only Tier 3 challenger in the team, couldn't stand it anymore and frowned, saying, "Say less and just challenge the three-star difficulty dungeon. I'm also about to advance to Tier 4."

Ignoring the people's pointless chatter, Lu Ming pondered as he looked at the descriptions that appeared next to the various spheres of light, large and small.

People like Chen Xin came to the Main God Space from parallel worlds different from Lu Ming's for various reasons.

As far as Lu Ming knew, these horror movies did not exist in their world.

In some horror movies, if you happen to get caught up in the plot, even if an ordinary person knows how things are going to unfold, it's impossible for them to survive.

For those who know nothing, entering a dungeon is like groping in the dark unless they are extremely strong; their chances of survival are slim.

Therefore, Chen Xin and the others only discussed the differences in difficulty between each instance.

After all, we don't know anything else, so there's really nothing to discuss.

"The Ouija board only has two stars. I heard other classmates play this ritual when I was a kid. It was rumored to be incredibly mysterious and could be considered a childhood nightmare... However, as long as the spirit summoned by the Ouija board can be sent away in time, it is not dangerous. The real danger of this dungeon is its mission: to investigate the cause of death of the spirit by the Ouija board."

Lu Ming still remembers that there were three taboos in the Ouija board game: first, you cannot ask about the cause of death; second, you cannot ask about lifespan; and third, you must ask the spirit to leave.

This instance's quest happens to violate the first of the three taboos.

"Train to Busan, to prevent the zombie virus from spreading abroad? Interesting... South Korea has already fallen, so strategically abandoning it is reasonable, there's nothing we can do about it."

"This time, we didn't get The Ring, but we got Ju-on, and the mission is extremely difficult. We need to deal with this vengeful ghost."

Lu Ming had no interest whatsoever in attempting the seven-star difficulty ghost dungeon before him.

After all, if Kayako were placed in a world of mysterious resurgence, she would probably cause an S-class supernatural event.

The most basic characteristic of this vengeful ghost is that it cannot be killed; it is an aggregate of resentment, similar to a kind of idealistic existence.

Moreover, it can move regardless of time and space, and superimpose several different fatal curses.

In terms of its reach, Kayako's curse is like a virus, spreading rapidly from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, leaving no one unscathed.

Sadako from The Ring is certainly terrifying, but compared to Kayako, her only drawback is that Sadako's conditions for killing are harder to trigger, requiring the viewing of a cursed videotape.

"I definitely have to go to this kind of instance. Maybe I'll have a chance to control a fierce ghost like Sadako or Kayako, but now is definitely not the time to go."

Despite being a level 0 challenger, Lu Ming possesses terrifying strength that others could only dream of. However, one thing others are right about is that Lu Ming is a novice with little experience in challenging dungeons.

The only time I went into a dungeon, I entered a dead gray world that had crashed due to a malfunction.

The best choice this time is to try out a dungeon that isn't too difficult.

After some discussion, the others decided to choose the three-star difficulty dungeon, the Mountain Village Corpse.

Although the name sounds terrifying, the lure of the generous rewards is irresistible, and the three days pass by if you grit your teeth and persevere.

Clearing a two-star dungeon grants 3 attribute points, while clearing a three-star dungeon grants 5 attribute points.

As for the 10% bonus for new players, that's something else entirely, different from attribute points.

Once a challenger reaches Tier 3, the God Shop will be unlocked.

The currency used to redeem items is points.

The challenger ranking is also determined by calculating the cumulative points earned by the challenger.

Points are awarded based on each challenger's performance in the dungeon. Generally, challenging a two-star dungeon will earn around 300 points, while challenging a three-star dungeon will earn around 600 points.

 The difficulty of the dungeon is related to the task to be completed. Chu Renmei is very strong, but the task is to survive for three days, so she was only given three stars. This is to clarify and avoid any misunderstanding.
