There's a skull dungeon attached to my basement

After a bout of frantic chopping, the mutated rat-man collapsed, defeated.

The calming sandalwood incense had burned out, and the uses of the Sandalwood Tranquility Talisman were completely exhausted.

In a daze, Xiao Yang crawled up from a large pool of scarlet minced meat.

He didn't know how many axe strikes he had landed during this fight. The mutated rat-man's regenerative ability was too strong. To counter this exaggerated recovery, Xiao Yang could only keep chopping away, axe after axe.

Applying one of his few remaining Tranquility Talismans, the talisman quickly burned and evaporated. With that slight, cool sensation, Xiao Yang exhaled a long breath.

His condition recovered somewhat.

Not far away, a huge flesh abomination, having devoured one long-armed infected after another, had expanded to its limit. Finally, reaching its maximum size, it suddenly exploded.

In this not particularly large space, a rain of flesh and blood began to fall.

A large intestine was directly launched onto Xiao Yang's helmet. Amidst that peculiar odor, Xiao Yang's movements froze.

Soon after, this scarlet rain of flesh and blood stopped. Xiao Yang nonchalantly wiped the large intestine hanging on his helmet, recovering from his shell-shocked state.

Shaking his head and muttering to himself, he reached out towards the pile of minced meat in front of him.

"Alright, time for the harvest!"

Xiao Yang had expended a great deal to fight this mutated rat-man: Blood Core, Calming Sandalwood Incense, Sandalwood Tranquility Talisman—one Epic-tier consumable completely used up, another Epic-tier consumable used up by a third, and a very special Blue-quality consumable.

If he couldn't find anything good on this mutated rat-man, then Xiao Yang would suffer a huge loss, a loss that would make his heart ache.

His body trembling, he stretched his hand towards the pile of flesh and blood, groping around.

However, compared to the upcoming harvest, Xiao Yang's current mental state was the most worrying.

His body trembled involuntarily, his mind was in a daze, and he felt an inexplicable excitement. But that was normal; who wasn't crazy after going into the dungeon?

Suddenly, an excited shout rang out in the arena.

"Golden Legend!"

Xiao Yang only found one item on the mutated rat-man, but that one item was enough to completely make up for his losses. He had found a golden Legendary item, a dazzling golden disc.

【Greed Disc\nQuality: Legendary\nEffect: Offer enough suitable sacrifices, and you will receive blessings.\nDescription: A golden disc. Put something on it? Perhaps something expensive.】

On this bloody battlefield, in front of a pile of minced meat that showed no trace of its former self, Xiao Yang shouted and yelled, like some kind of bizarre sacrificial ritual.

On the other side, in a large puddle of clear water on the ground.

Little Bone was also performing its own peculiar ritual. The little fellow was frantically groping in the clear water on the ground, and each time it reached in, it was able to pull out a large number of pale fingernails from the thin puddle. These pale fingernails piled up around Little Bone, indescribably strange.

The little fellow at this time was on par with its master, who seemed to be performing a sacrificial ritual, in terms of bizarreness.

Little Bone was attracted by Xiao Yang's shouting and yelling. It stopped its strange groping action, turned its head, and its gaze fell on its boisterous master. Suddenly, the little fellow stood up and came to the pile of minced meat that Xiao Yang had chopped so finely with his axe. It reached out and slowly grabbed into the minced meat.

At this moment, the golden light appeared again in Little Bone's hand.

Little Bone had found another Greed Disc of Legendary quality for Xiao Yang.

At this moment, Xiao Yang slowly opened his mouth.

Little Bone was always so unexpected.

With the battle over, Xiao Yang found many interesting things while cleaning up the area.

In a corner, there was a golden treasure chest. Xiao Yang found a batch of expensive jewelry and a still-slowly wriggling stomach.

The newest and fastest novel is on 69shu.com!

There was only this simple sentence on it.

Xiao Yang did not give up on this blue pool. After testing it, he jumped in and explored it. After being bathed in this blue pool, Xiao Yang gained an effect that washed away filth.

【Wash Away Filth: Gain temporary protection, immune to the effects of pollution.】

When he saw this effect, Xiao Yang was silent.

"Ah?"

He realized that he might have misjudged the situation of this BOSS battle to some extent. This BOSS battle, which had suddenly become more difficult, could now be explained.

Xiao Yang was still wondering after the fight. Although the mutated rat-man had dropped a golden item, the difficulty was still a bit too high. He had the Light and Darkness Paradox Mind Transcendence, False Spirit, eighty-five points of Spirit, Calming Sandalwood Incense, and Sandalwood Tranquility Talisman.

With so many miscellaneous things combined, he still only had single-digit Spirit left after the fight, and he was almost carried away to see the Evil God.

A mental pressure monster with high health, high regeneration, and summoning small mental pressure monsters—wasn't that too inhumane? The difficulty was too high.

So it turned out that it wasn't that the difficulty was exaggerated, but that there was a way to counter it!

A normal mutated rat-man boss battle should involve jumping into this blue pool for a buff after fighting for a while, and then jumping out to fight for a while. As long as you solved it before the mutated rat-man completely polluted the pool, then it would be fine. That should be the way to fight.

But Xiao Yang didn't realize this.

But it wasn't a big problem. Perhaps it wasn't a bad thing. Xiao Yang found such an item at the bottom of this blue pool.

【Heart of Comfort (Full)\nQuality: Special\nEffect: Comforts the soul, brings peace.\nDescription: This is a crystal ball that can bring peace.】

The Heart of Comfort was a transparent crystal ball. It was placed on the left eye of this idol's head. After Xiao Yang took the Heart of Comfort, the blue pool of water immediately dimmed and no longer had its previous divinity.

His recklessness had earned him a special item in a full state, which might be of great use in the future.

Xiao Yang comforted himself like this.

Finally, there was the thing that was buried the deepest in this area, and perhaps the most important thing. Xiao Yang took a yellow copper plate from the right eye of the idol's head in the blue pool.
