Last month's results were truly remarkable. With Jiang Ran's 100% reward plus Zhuge Shensuan's 1/4 reward, Dragon Kingdom reaped a 125% reward from an S-level supernatural world last month, which is far ahead of other countries!
As Jiang Ran's fame grew, Long Guo realized that he could no longer let him fight alone in team dungeons; a reliable teammate was essential!
The Dragon Kingdom originally planned to train Zhuge Shensuan to be Jiang Ran's regular teammate. However, Zhuge Shensuan was only an S-rank, and Jiang Ran had to participate in S-rank or higher worlds every time. Zhuge Shensuan himself didn't mind, but the Zhuge family had a lot of objections. They said that they could team up occasionally, but the mortality rate in S-rank supernatural worlds was too high for them to accept.
Therefore, Zhuge Shensuan only chose to participate in a B-level world this month. This is actually the norm for other ghost story tellers. What weirdo would go to an S-level or higher world every month?
It's time for Jiang Ran to step into this month's S-rank supernatural tale world!
"Come on, Xiao Ran, let's get to know your temporary teammates this time." Lin Changqing smiled and pulled Jiang Ran over. Jiang Ran turned his head and saw a girl standing in front of him somewhat timidly.
The girl was wearing a light blue tracksuit for easy movement, with only light makeup on her face, and her long hair was tied up in a ponytail.
"Y-you...you...hello! Brother Jiang Ran! I'm Yu Cheng! An SS-level ghost story teller! I look forward to working with you!"
Yu Cheng lowered her head, blushed, and stretched out her right hand. This girl didn't seem to be the kind of shyness that comes between men and women; rather, she had the expression of someone with social anxiety meeting a stranger.
"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Jiang Ran also extended his hand and shook hands with her.
Yu Cheng, an SS-rank expert, is an extremely famous figure in the world of ghost storytellers in China. She was once a participant in an S-rank ghost story world and survived. At that time, she was just an S-rank ghost storyteller.
Because Jiang Ran has been ruthlessly monopolizing the latest S-level supernatural tale worlds, most supernatural tale writers in the Dragon Kingdom haven't participated in supernatural tale worlds of S-level or higher for a long time.
The more numerous and simpler A-rank worlds are what most ghost story writers strive for. Most ghost story writers will never even participate in an S-rank ghost story world in their lifetime, since only a small number of people can enter at a time.
[Jiang Ran, a ghost storyteller from the Dragon Kingdom, has successfully connected to the S-level ghost story world, "The Wedding Hall in a Remote Village," but has not yet cleared it. A total of 6 ghost storytellers have previously challenged it.]
[The Dragon Kingdom Ghost Storyteller's Program has successfully connected to the S-rank Ghost Story World - Rural Wedding Hall, but has not yet been completed. A total of 7 Ghost Storytellers have previously challenged it.]
"Another team dungeon? That makes sense, otherwise Uncle Lin wouldn't have assigned me teammates."
There have been more and more team dungeons lately. If Jiang Ran remembers correctly, according to the timeline, next month's dungeon should be SS-level. Hopefully, it will be a solo dungeon, otherwise he doesn't know what kind of monsters and demons will be his opponents.
Jiang Ran thought this way, unaware that in the eyes of ghost storytellers in other countries, he was the biggest monster.
Yu Cheng wasn't with Jiang Ran, which means that the ghost storytellers entering the world didn't spawn at the same location, which is somewhat similar to the previous dungeon, Night Ghost City.
The sky was overcast, with gray clouds blocking the sunlight; judging from the time, it must have been evening.
A crow stood on the bare tree trunk, its red pupils darting around, emitting an unpleasant cawing sound.
On the tree trunk, there was a huge "囍" character, but it was cut from white paper, which looked rather eerie against the black tree trunk.
[Rule 1: If you see a white 囍 character, please ignore it and touch it as little as possible. If you see a red 囍 character, do not hesitate, leave that place immediately.]
Rule Two: Crows are beneficial birds. If you see a crow, it means good luck is about to happen to you. But be careful not to stare into the crow's pupils for too long, otherwise it may no longer be a crow.
[Rule 3: This village was once the site of a severe plague. All the survivors have moved to the city, so there is no one left in the village. Please remember that there is no one in the village. If you see other villagers somewhere, please do not talk to them.]
[Rule 4: If you have leftover food and encounter a dog, please share some with it. Note that no matter when or where you encounter the dog, please always check its back for any stitches before feeding it.]
[Rule 5: The plague happened a long time ago, and the villagers' bodies have all been buried and disposed of. So if you see a fresh corpse somewhere in the village, please suppress your curiosity and walk around it.]
[Rule Six: Do not attempt to enter the mass graves on the back hill. If possible, it is best to avoid entering the back hill. If you must enter the back hill, please remember that there are no living people there. If you feel an unfamiliar voice calling you from behind, please do not turn around and leave as soon as possible.]
[Rule Seven: Do not eat any food in a room, including food that was previously in the room. However, if there are three burning incense sticks in front of the door, you can place the food in that room on the nearest altar, and you may reap some other rewards.]
Rule Eight: Don't be afraid.
The announcement of the eight rules also means that the world has reached 30 people. Because the spawn point of the giant squid is randomly refreshed, Jiang Ran has not encountered a second person yet, and does not know who the other 28 people are.
"Alansta of the White Eagle has reached S-rank or above for several consecutive worlds, and he will most likely be one of them this time. As for Yamagami and Han Xiaodong... it's hard to say."
If possible, Jiang Ran didn't really want to go through the same supernatural world as Yamazaki, because his abilities posed too great a threat to Gwen.
Alright, let's first try to extract my talents in this world of ghost stories!
[SSS Talent: Pandora's Box]
[Effect: Refreshes the user's inventory with one item every so often. These items are divided into two categories: system items and story items. System items are general-purpose items with different functions, while story items are items specific to this particular ghost story world. They were originally hidden in the corners of the ghost story world. If you draw this type of item, it will be directly teleported to the user's hands.]
You can never guess what it will give you next. As a probability professor once said, you should be grateful that this is an SSS-level ability.
