"Horror dungeons have always been the focal point of our 14th Bureau because if something goes wrong, some entities might escape."
"If that happens, it would be a huge problem."
"Besides being possessed, another reason these entities escape is when people inside the dungeon fail to complete their tasks."
"Your performance in the horror dungeon made us realize you have great potential and the ability to resolve certain incidents that occur in these dungeons."
"So we want to invite you to join our 14th Bureau. Of course, based on your performance, we will give you the best treatment and provide anything you need."
"Longevity Pills, Three-dimensional Attribute Pills, Spiritual Recovery Potions, and more, we can provide anything you need."
At this moment, Zhang Yi began to make offers, hoping to recruit Zhou Yingting into his division.
If Zhou Yingting agreed to join, their 14th Bureau's strength would significantly increase.
Zhou Yingting listened to this and finally understood their intention.
However, upon hearing they wanted him to handle things within the horror dungeons, Zhou Yingting was about to refuse.
"I can't agree to this. In the future, if there's a horror dungeon, I'll stay far away."
Without hesitation, Zhou Yingting directly refused them.
Hearing Zhou Yingting's response, Zhang Yi was taken aback, not expecting such a decisive rejection.
"Our 14th Bureau has a lot of valuable items; besides those mentioned, we also have some talent entries and the like."
Zhang Yi, unwilling to give up, continued to persuade.
"There's no need for persuasion. If I joined you, I'd only be a burden. This time, upon exiting the dungeon, the negative effect of the entry I chose attracts supernatural attention."
"If I were to enter a horror dungeon again, I'd be the first to suffer. Don't you both understand what I'm saying?"
Judging by their expressions, Zhou Yingting felt that if he didn't give them a reason, they might continue persuading him in the future.
Zhou Yingting didn't want this, so he made things clear.
Zhang Yi was surprised, "You've witnessed the terror of horror dungeons and still chose such an entry?"
He hadn't considered this possibility.
He assumed that after witnessing the horrors of the dungeon, Zhou Yingting wouldn't choose an entry with such negative effects.
Even if the other talent entry wasn't that great and had strong negative effects, Zhou Yingting would still choose the magic entry.
He hadn't expected Zhou Yingting to be so bold.
"At worst, I'll pay for information to avoid horror dungeons."
Hearing this, Zhou Yingting responded seriously.
Regardless of the entry, Zhou Yingting had no intention of ever entering a horror dungeon again; such places weren't meant for people.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yi slightly opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but eventually sighed.
Although buying information is effective in avoiding horror dungeons,
it's not foolproof.
However, saying such things is considered inauspicious, and he dared not say it carelessly.
After all, it's said that some entries are very sensitive about such matters.
If Zhou Yingting had such an entry, and due to a single comment, re-entered a horror dungeon, that would be disastrous.
"Nonetheless, our 14th Bureau will always welcome you. If you ever change your mind, I hope you'll contact me."
Knowing that Zhou Yingting had such negative effects, and clearly didn't want to join the 14th Bureau, Zhang Yi didn't persist any further.
After once more offering to give Zhou Yingting a ride, which he declined, Zhang Yi and his companion turned and left.
Watching them leave, Zhou Yingting glanced at his attribute panel.
Spiritual Power 200, possession occurs at 170.
If those things appeared, it would be troublesome.
"I should maintain good relations with Zhang Yi. This way, if the 14th Bureau discovers any supernatural entities have escaped, I can leave immediately."
"Otherwise, if something escapes, it would still be fatal for me."
Thinking this, Zhou Yingting sighed, but soon had a thought and quickly sent Zhang Yi a message.
"Does your 14th Bureau have the talent entry 'Demon Body'?"
If they had it, perhaps Zhou Yingting would consider working for the 14th Bureau for a while.
The talent entry 'Demon Body'?
Already seated in the car, Zhang Yi received Zhou Yingting's message, opened it, furrowing his brows, and immediately searched.
After checking, he found no information on the 'Demon Body' entry.
Once sure of this, he replied to Zhou Yingting.
Zhou Yingting looked at the message with some disappointment. After thinking it over, he sent another question, "Do you have entries that can increase Spiritual Power?"
"We don't. Entries that enhance Spiritual Power are extremely rare; people mostly keep them for themselves and don't trade them."
This time Zhang Yi replied quickly.
The previous inquiry was for a seemingly obscure entry, but the current question was about a highly coveted one, though too rare to see anyone trading it.
Seeing Zhang Yi's response, Zhou Yingting sighed.
"My three-dimensional attributes are just over twenty. If the 14th Bureau has anything non-supernatural related, I can offer my assistance. But as a trade-off, you must inform me immediately if supernatural events occur locally. Does that work for you?"
Every dungeon completion grants a +3 Three-dimensional Attribute Pill, so claiming over twenty attributes should be enough.
If he could secure first-hand information through this, Zhou Yingting considered it worthwhile.
Zhang Yi, reading Zhou Yingting's message, squinted slightly.
Zhou Yingting's three-dimensional attributes reaching twenty points? That was unexpected.
If that's the case, there might indeed be opportunities for cooperation with Zhou Yingting in the future.
The requested first-hand information posed no disadvantage to the 14th Bureau.
After pondering briefly, Zhang Yi immediately sent Zhou Yingting confirmation of the deal.
For now, treating Zhou Yingting as a collaborator seemed fitting given his capabilities.
Seeing Zhang Yi agree, Zhou Yingting breathed a sigh of relief.
This way, there was added assurance in safety.
Zhou Yingting preferred helping deal with rogue extraordinaries rather than engaging with the supernatural.
After all, those encounters could lead to obscure deaths.
