Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 201: Chapter 117: One Hundred Thousand Banners to Slay Yama!

Upon hearing this, Lu Wenwu was deeply moved.

Well, well, well, the silly netizens were not deceiving me.

Even after descending to the Underworld, there’s no escaping the civil service exam and recruitment.

Indeed, the end of life is the civil service exam, and the end of the universe is recruitment.

Lu Wenwu continued to read on.

[The Underworld Administration Bureau and its direct and affiliated agencies’ 2024 civil service exam (formerly known as Ghost Messenger/Yin Messenger) recruitment is about to begin, with a plan to recruit 44,400 ghosts.]

[Candidates can log onto the special website for the Ghost Messenger exam recruitment by August 1st in the Underworld Calendar (http://www.DFgwyks2024.com) to register online.]

[The written exam on public subjects will be held simultaneously after the Ghost Gate fully closes on August 16th, Mid-Autumn Festival, in Fengdu Ghost City, Wangsi City, Ghost Realm Castle, capitals of each Yin Province, Eighteen Layers of Hell, and some large border stations.]

[This recruitment for civil service positions mainly has three characteristics: first, prioritizing the ironclad standards of the Underworld’s New Era “Ghost Messenger”…]

[Appendix 1: Directory of units under recruitment for this exam]

[1. Ghost Gate Security Bureau]

[2. Beiyin Mountain Management Office]

[3. Tomb Construction Third Bureau]

[….]

[Graduates from ghost schools and those with high merit may have reduced recruitment requirements.]

The full text was too long, so Lu Wenwu just picked out the main parts to read.

Previously, when chatting with the Yin General, he had asked and learned that today is the fourth day since the Mid-Autumn Festival began, which is July 19th.

According to what’s written in this notice, it’s precisely the registration period now.

Lu Wenwu suddenly felt a bit tempted.

Mainly because there’s no restriction on applying for the Ghost Messenger exam, as long as you have a formal Underworld ID, you can participate.

Since he rarely comes to the Underworld, Lu Wenwu absolutely wouldn’t just accept earning a few million Spirit Coins and leaving; he must get some special products from the Underworld.

Becoming a Ghost Messenger is undoubtedly a great way to make upward connections.

Other players don’t even have this opportunity to apply!

Following normal procedures, even for players with a special expedited process, it would take at least three to four months to break free from the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and the registration deadline would have passed.

Of course, there’s also the possibility of someone who was virtuous for ten lives ending their sentence quickly in Hell and entering Ghost Realm Castle to partake in this.

Just as Lu Wenwu was contemplating where to get some exam papers for study, two familiar and bewildered figures came running out through the main gate.

“Damn! Little brother, how did you get out of Fengdu City so quickly?!” Black 985 exclaimed in shock, rubbing his eyes continuously.

Bai Er Yi Yi appeared slightly calmer, but not by much; even the long tongue of his standard White Impermanence uniform nearly fell out, blinking rapidly.

“Fifth Brother Wu, what on earth is going on here?”

“Just call me Xiaowu, Brother Hei!”

Lu Wenwu spread his hands with a cheerful smile and detailed everything that had happened and his recent plans.

This time, Bai Er Yi Yi’s long tongue really fell out.

His mouth was almost unable to close.

Luckily, Black 985 was quick-handed and caught it, preventing it from getting dirty.

“This isn’t the place to talk, let’s go somewhere else. We’ve just finished our report. Thanks to you, we can finish work early today.”

As he spoke, he handed the tongue back to his partner and led Lu Wenwu towards the entrance.

“Let’s go, let’s go, come on over to my place for a chat. Tonight, we must keep drinking until we’re drunk, let me treat you well!”

“Then I’ll trouble you, my elder brothers.”

Again, it was the familiar Underworld Didi.

Again, it was the familiar Nightmare Hellhorse.

Perhaps because this time it was Impermanence himself calling the ride, and right at the important office building in the Underworld, even the craftsmanship of the Paper Horse Carriage was more refined than the previous one.

It even had black and white exclusive flame effects, looking damn cool, almost like traveling in a police car.

The group of “three” soon arrived at Black 985 and Bai Er Yi Yi’s residence.

Reincarnation Area, Impermanence Street.

Just like those common military districts or government courtyards and such.

To facilitate management, it’s also considered a Ghost Messenger’s welfare.

Except those rich folks in the Mortal World who seized many feng shui good graves or top-notch Yin Houses, most Impermanence personnel formally employed for a period live in this area with allocated Yin Houses.

Over time, it earned the name—Impermanence Street.

It’s said that here and the neighboring Ox and Horse Street are the most severely eerie and sinister places within Ghost Realm Castle.

At the center of these two street districts, the old residences of Oxhead and Horseface, Black and White Impermanence are still preserved, attracting endless streams of visitors coming to see.

Inside Impermanence Street, black and white is everywhere in sight.

A real place of learned exchanges where no commoners come and go.

The entire street was filled densely with Black and White Impermanence, resembling a horror film group’s makeup scene.

On both sides of the street, neat rows of independent courtyards, each containing differently shaped… tombs!

The tactful ones even build a small shrine at the entrance, offering a memorial tablet for the resident inside, like a doorplate.

Although Lu Wenwu felt a bit uncomfortable, he respected the cultural customs of the Underworld.

Thus, he hurriedly followed the two into this uniquely designed employee dormitory.
