Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

“Dead, really dead!” The Big Crow cawed chaotically, “Violent Dragon, how did you do it, gah!”

“It’s called a Howling Demon, a kind of senseless ghostly creature that grows in areas where Yin Qi and evil Qi are heavy. It’s actually pretty weak.”

Lu Wenwu hung the Soul Hook back on his waist and pointed to the remaining half body that was dissipating.

“When it opens its mouth to roar, its body enters a phasing state; we can’t hit it, and it can’t hit us either. But when it closes its mouth, one punch with full force will finish it off. That’s why the first explosive shot from the Little Milk Cow worked.”

“You… you…”

Xu Changjiang was dumbfounded, pointing at Lu Wenwu, unable to utter a complete sentence for a while.

As a Shaman Disciple and a qualified Yin World Traveler, although he wasn’t selected for the world instance last time, his familiarity with the Underworld definitely surpasses those players who participated in the world instance.

Others might not recognize, but how could he not!

The Soul Hook, Mourning Stick, and the Soul-Binding Chain on the waist!

This is the goddamn Ghost Messenger’s three-piece set!

“Violent Dragon… you… are you human or ghost?” Xu Changjiang finally asked his question, “How… how do you have the standard equipment of a Ghost Messenger?”

“Me? I’m certainly human.”

Lu Wenwu showed a benevolent smile and opened the electronic work permit on his personal terminal.

“Let me reintroduce myself, I am a Keeper of the Bo’er Elephant at the Demon Suppression Bureau, Deputy Director of the Material Management Department at the Offering Pavilion Heaven and Earth Bank, Ghost Food Research and Development Engineer at the Wangchuan Ghost Food Bureau, Spiritual Cuisine Consultant, and a member of the Special Strategic Support Group at the Ghost Gate Security Bureau.”

“I was awarded the Top Ten Outstanding Civil Servants of the Ghost Gate Security Bureau in 2024, and an Outstanding Youth in the Underworld of the same year, and have the nickname in the ghost food industry – the Underworld’s God of Stuffed Pancakes.”

“Damn, you’re an agent of Ghost An!? How… how’s that even possible!”

The usually shy Xu Changjiang burst out into trembling screams for the first time.

Now he had quite the déjà vu feeling of a mouse seeing a cat.

For the Underworld, a Yin Walker is a common presence, but they are figures walking in a gray area.

When black and white remain unmentioned, there’s no issue.

If one really wants to capture, there’s always a reason to do so.

So generally, people in this line of work tend to avoid Ghost Messengers, let alone team up for instances.

Lu Wenwu shrugged: “During my participation in the world instance, I casually took the exam, and unexpectedly landed a role. Upon returning, King Yama specially allowed me to retain the position, so technically I am still a Ghost Messenger.”

Casually?

Took the Ghost Messenger exam?

And joined the most mysterious Special Strategic Support Group of Ghost An?

Xu Changjiang fell silent.

He now wanted some peace.

Hunter AC Little Milk Cow, as an ordinary player, didn’t feel too much about Lu Wenwu being a Ghost Messenger.

The only thought was that the road ahead might be smoother now.

The Big Crow, who often dealt with death and Ghost Messengers, seemed quite excited and cawed to chat with Lu Wenwu about the matters below, and they indeed shared a few mutual friends.

For a moment, the entire team’s atmosphere became eerie yet harmonious.

The three and a bird walked forward.

Xu Changjiang dutifully used a flashlight to illuminate while summoning two defense-oriented summoned beasts to guard the surroundings, preventing sudden attacks.

Operational AC Little Milk Cow played the hunter’s role, releasing his pet—the hunting dog to patrol back and forth, trying to find some clues.

Lu Wenwu’s job became much simpler.

Whenever the Big Crow issued a “caw caw caw” warning, he would throw the Soul Hook, pull back the Howling Demon, and smack it dead, a very cooperative effort.

When Lu Wenwu killed the eleventh Howling Demon, a broken notebook dropped from it; besides a map and a spherical compass pointing in some direction, it was filled with many incomprehensible words.

Lu Wenwu, who had the ability to understand all languages, flipped through it for a while and explained to the group:

“This says the place we’re at now is called the Chaotic Mysterious Realm because an unnamed Evil God has descended upon the world, causing the spatial power and space here to become completely chaotic.”

“Due to the power of the Evil God, the Chaotic Mysterious Realm became akin to a maze filled with the god’s scattered divine power. Only a special Candle Lamp can temporarily dispel the divine power interference, which is that old flashlight.”

Saying this, Lu Wenwu followed the mark on the spherical compass, pointing from a corner of the map to the center.

“We’re probably at this spot now; we have to go to the center here to leave. We’ll encounter constant attacks by Howling Demons along the way.”

Operational AC Little Milk Cow asked, “Our main task is to survive for thirty days, can we just stay here? I’ve brought enough water and food for us.”

Lu Wenwu shook his head: “No, the notebook says the Chaotic Mysterious Realm undergoes a divine power outburst every seven days, and except for the Howling Demon, all the creatures inside will die. It’s best not to gamble.”

“Alright, looks like we have to move out quickly.” Little Milk Cow regretfully patted his dog, “Should we follow this map all the way?”

“No, that’s too troublesome.”

Lu Wenwu shook his head and walked over to the side wall.

Eye of Insight activated, with all information laid bare.
