We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 41: Memory Alteration (Please continue reading)

In addition to the 1900 points and the supernatural power of the ghost fog, Lu Ming now has 5 more attribute points.

Without hesitation, Lu Ming continued to allocate attribute points to mental strength.

Although he didn't know where the specific boundaries were, Lu Ming believed that quantitative changes would lead to qualitative changes.

In other words, the increase in mental strength from each attribute point is fixed, but when a certain number of points are accumulated, Lu Ming's mental strength will likely undergo a leapfrog transformation.

Just like crossing a certain threshold, the upper limit that can be reached will be greatly increased afterward.

As the points were added, the transparent panel in front of Lu Ming was refreshed.

[Available points: 0 points]

【Mental Power: 29】

[Stamina: 1]

【Strength: 2】

【Speed: 3】

【? ? ? 】

After completing the point allocation, Lu Ming approached the area near the various light spots, some large and some small.

This is where you choose the horror movie instance, and it's also where the most challengers gather.

Under normal circumstances, the God Realm does not force challengers to participate in dungeon challenges.

The main god will only issue mandatory tasks to challengers who realize they have no hope of leaving the main god space and thus remain idle; failure to complete these tasks will result in their annihilation.

Therefore, unless you are a player aiming for speedruns, most challengers will not rush to the next dungeon immediately after clearing the previous one.

As expected, Lu Ming encountered Chen Xin and Wu Lei, who were still in the Main God Space, among the many challengers.

Now both of them have become Tier 3 Challengers and are choosing a horror movie instance not far away.

Lu Ming still had some questions about some of the detailed rules in the God Space. It would be too much of a waste of time to figure it out on his own, so he took the initiative to step forward and ask.

When Lu Ming approached, Chen Xin and Wu Lei turned their attention to him and noticed the newcomer.

A moment of silence fell over the room.

Not only Chen Xin, but even Wu Lei's mind went blank; both of them looked like they had seen a ghost.

If they remembered correctly, the cold-looking young man in front of them seemed to be Lu Ming, the newbie they had taken with them on the last dungeon run.

"Ming-ge?!"

"Well, we meet again."

Lu Ming nodded, which was his way of greeting him.

"How did you..."

Chen Xin originally wanted to ask Lu Ming how he was still alive, but when she got to the point, she suddenly realized that it was a bit strange to ask that question.

When you meet someone, you immediately ask why they're still alive, why they can't live? If you're so eager to die, go die yourself.

So Chen Xin changed her approach: "Ming-ge, what happened in the dungeon?"

Lu Ming shook his head, clearly not intending to say anything more.

At this moment, both Chen Xin and Wu Lei noticed that Lu Ming's identity card showed that he had become a second-tier challenger.

To progress from a newbie to a Tier 2 Challenger, you need at least 1000 points.

This means that Lu Ming has completed the Mountain Village Corpse dungeon and made an amazing contribution, earning 1000 points or even more.

Could it be that... Lu Ming used some method to kill that terrifying ghost?

This somewhat absurd thought suddenly popped into Chen Xin's mind.

Although it sounds incredible, it is the best explanation for the current situation.

Remembering the message Lu Ming left them when he left, even if Chen Xin were slow to realize it, she would no longer regard Lu Ming as an ordinary challenger. Now that she thought about it, surviving the dead gray world caused by a system bug, reappearing unexpectedly after the time limit, and gaining extra points... attributing all of this to luck was too foolish.

Chen Xin dared not think any further.

Lu Ming ignored Chen Xin's inner thoughts, unaware that in her mind, his image had gradually become unfathomable. He simply glanced around casually and said, "This place we're in now isn't the entirety of the Main God Space, is it?"

"Indeed... Challengers of the fifth rank or above are said to be able to enter the higher-dimensional God Space, but we don't know the specifics."

"So that's it."

Lu Ming nodded. It seemed that this God Space was not as simple as he had imagined.

A broken god, strange rules, and all sorts of bizarre things happening to him.

Finding out the truth is still a long way off for Lu Ming. All he can do now is keep himself in a relatively stable state and accumulate as many points as possible.

"You guys go ahead with your work. I'll be leaving now if there's nothing else."

From Chen Xin and Wu Lei's perspective, Lu Ming showed no signs of anything unusual.

This is because, back in the Mountain Village Corpse dungeon, Lu Ming had already used the Ghost Domain to shroud the two of them, and used the supernatural power of the bloodstained old newspaper to alter their consciousness and delete the memory of that altered consciousness.

"No one is allowed to have any thoughts of harming Lu Ming."

“Lu Ming’s behavior is not abnormal and is reasonable.”

"Call Lu Ming 'Brother Ming'."

If Lu Ming were facing two relatively strong challengers, it would be fine.

Even though Chen Xin focused on increasing her mental strength, she was still only a second-tier challenger at the time.

There was no room for them to resist Lu Ming's preemptive supernatural attack.

Needless to say, Wu Lei hasn't shown any unusual behavior so far.

Huang Mao and Xia Lili are both dead. Only Wu Lei and Chen Xin survived the dungeon.

After spending some time together, Lu Ming had a fairly good impression of the two of them. Although their strength was average, their character was acceptable.

Even so, Lu Ming still couldn't completely trust the two guys he had met. As the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not their heart, so using supernatural means as an extra layer of protection was the safest option.

Finally, he asked the two to change their way of addressing him to "Ming-ge" to ensure that the alteration of the bloodstained old newspaper had taken effect.

With these random thoughts swirling in his mind, Lu Ming turned to look at the dense clusters of light points, intending to enter the instance again.

Just then, Chen Xin and Wu Lei arrived from behind. Chen Xin, who was in the lead, smiled and said, "Brother Ming, which dungeon are you planning to challenge? Can you take the two of us with you?"

Both of them have now realized who the real powerhouse is and who they can rely on to survive.

Although we don't know what special methods Lu Ming has, it's always the right thing to do to challenge the dungeon together.

Moreover, just now, the two of them inexplicably developed a special sense of trust in Lu Ming. This trust seemed to be innate, engraved in their bones, making them feel inexplicably close.

“Your abilities are still too weak; following me will only hold you back.”

Without a second thought, Lu Ming rejected Chen Xin's request without hesitation.

Chen Xin initially thought Lu Ming was exaggerating.

After all, she had already become a Tier 3 Challenger, and could exchange for various items in the Main God Shop.

If she were to challenge the three-star difficulty Mountain Village Corpse dungeon now, she certainly wouldn't be as pathetic as before.

These thoughts vanished instantly after Chen Xin saw the copy Lu Ming had chosen.

Before Lu Ming was a golden sphere of light.

The dungeon's name was a bizarre four-character name.

The Ring (or the Nightmare Ring)
