195: Chapter 187: Ghost House, Murderer, and the Eye 195: Chapter 187: Ghost House, Murderer, and the Eye Including Luo Di, who was wearing the investigator uniform and the Jaw Splitter, there were signs of plant growth around the neck area.
All present were elites of the sisterhood, with everyone’s physical prowess reaching the human limit; there were a thousand ways to remove the plants inside the neck.
Furthermore, the rules ntioned by the other party did not specify that removing them was prohibited.
Hua Yuan had imdiately tried to use the flower pistil that grew between her vocal cords to attempt clearing these plants.
Just as she was about to touch them, she suddenly realized sothing and stopped.
Instead, she reached out and poked Isabella’s body.
“Is your aging effective?”
Isabella imdiately shook her head, “The aging curse cannot affect the plants in the neck, I’ll try reproduction separation.”
However, Hua Yuan shook her finger, “No need to try~ The origin of this thing is not [seed] but [color].
As long as we are on this island, it’s impossible to eliminate the color inside our bodies… What color was the parasite you encountered in the Beach Area before?”
“Blue.”
Hua Yuan pointed towards the sky, towards the starlit phantom clouds mixed with various colors.
“That’s right, the color of the deceased Mr.
Di and I encountered in the forest was black.
The colors descending from the starlight divide the island into multiple areas, each area having its own the color.
Different colors induce different changes, bring different impacts, and shape different offspring.
The the color here is [green].
One of its main effects should be the plants growing in our necks, which cannot be removed as long as we are in this environnt.
Any misconduct will accelerate the concentration of this color inside us, and the potted plants will grow faster, once mature our heads will be gone.
Quite interesting.
Also, according to that person, the hotel is a completely separate area, potentially harboring even more dangerous colors.
From this ga-like stage design, it’s highly probable that the ‘Monster Avatar’ is waiting for us in the hotel.
Everyone relax, treat it as a ga of racing against ti, let’s draw lots!
After Hua Yuan made her deductions, she was the first to walk towards the center of the Crossroad.
She appeared casual on the surface but her Spiritual Body was already half materialized behind her, ready to kill any abnormal manager.
As Hua Yuan approached,
The manager brought the flowerpot from his right hand to the front, and from its mouth, five wooden sticks were spat out, safe and sound, normal drawing of lots was feasible.
Everyone quickly followed, at the manager’s request held the wooden sticks together and drew them out simultaneously.
[Beach Area] – Isabella
[Comrcial District] – Hua Yuan
[Amusent Park Area] – Shea
[Ghost House Area] – Mu Mu
Luo Di happened to draw a blank lot.
“Sir, please make a choice of area?”
Luo Di was the class leader’s partner, logically he should choose the Beach.
But Hua Yuan had already moved closer, seemingly accustod to acting together with Luo Di, seemingly wanting Luo Di to accompany her in action all the ti.
Pop~ Hua Yuan’s palm gently landed on his back.
At the sa ti, Isabella also turned her head to look over.
Just as Luo Di was about to make his choice,
Who would have expected the class leader and Hua Yuan to simultaneously utter:
“Follow Eye Sister!”
“Oh~”
Luo Di touched his blank lot on Eye Sister’s lot, thus completing his area selection.
Hua Yuan continued speaking on the side, “She herself is not good at combat and now she’s injured her eye, you must protect her well!
If Eye Sister’s injury worsens later, you’ll be in for a beating.”
“Understood.”
Hua Yuan continued, “Do you want to say goodbye to your dear one?
Isabella’s strength is comparatively weaker among us, maybe this is your last eting.”
“She will survive.”
“You have such confidence!
Then let’s look forward to eting again inside the hotel later.
I already feel the growth of the plant at my neckline, it’s really uncomfortable, it feels like being deeply *.”
Just as Hua Yuan was preparing to let everyone act on their own,
“Hua Yuan, wait a mont.” Shea was sniffing the air, seemingly confirming sothing, “The rules didn’t say we can’t kill this manager, right?”
“They didn’t ntion it~ hurry up and handle it.”
“Okay.”
Shea’s Zombie sll quickly deduced the target’s [attribute], determining whether the person belonged to humankind, whether suitable for virus transformation.
Having gotten her answer,
Shea’s jaw unexpectedly split along the centerline, forming a mutated bloody mouth, and bit off the manager’s arm in one bite.
Shea’s saliva contained a high concentration of the Zombie virus,
Both the bitten-off arm and the manager himself were subjected to the virus’s erosion.
The arm that fell to the ground visibly turned pale, with black veins crawling over the surface of the arm.
Virus takeover,
Organic transformation,
And even endowing biological consciousness.
The severed arm turned into a zombie life,
Crack~
The fingers began to exaggeratedly move, dragging along the whole arm crawling up Shea’s body.
At the wound site, strands of flesh-like tissue grew out, perfectly grafting to Shea’s shoulder at the severed arm.
There was no sign of any rejection reaction, perfectly grafted.
Even though this arm belonged to the manager,
Its length and tissue structure were not quite suitable, but it quickly transford into the most suitable shape for Shea under the virus’s adjustnt.
“Huh!?”
Although Shea had easily solved the broken arm issue, her face was full of confusion.
Surprisingly, the nearby manager had not transford into a zombie; instead, he turned sideways, staring at her with the potted plant on his head along with the skull he held in his hands.
The manager was not at all angered by his broken arm.
From the torn wound emitted a green glow, as roots slowly began to sprout, swaying in the air, seemingly waving goodbye to them, and it seed it wouldn’t be long before a plant arm grew out.
This sight made Shea uncomfortable, prompting her to quickly touch the plant growing from her own neck and hasten her steps.
Hua Yuan headed left,
Isabella moved forward,
and since the Ghost House and Comrcial District were in the sa direction, Shea decided to montarily head right along with Luo Di and Eye Sister.
The intense heat radiating from Luo Di’s body made Shea, a zombie who lacked body temperature, feel quite uneasy.
Similarly, Eye Sister also slightly distanced herself due to the dryness.
“Mr.
Di you…
never mind!”
Shea did not continue to inquire, as even Hua Yuan had expressed indifference; the priority was to find and kill the Monster Avatar.
Afterward, they could directly head to the Corner, and the opponent’s identity wouldn’t matter anymore.
Luo Di didn’t say much either, walking alone at the forefront.
Soon,
they reached the brightly lit amusent park.
Peering inside, they could see the functioning roller-coaster and the strange guests sitting on it, each one’s head seeming significantly larger than those of normal humans.
The Ghost House was set apart, much smaller in scale.
Both the amusent park and the Ghost House had a staff mber with a potted plant on their head checking tickets at the entrance.
“See you at the hotel.”
Shea touched the branches growing from her neck again and turned to run towards the amusent park entrance.
Luo Di and Little Eye turned towards a small path and entered the only unlit place in the entire area, the Ghost House.
“Di…
it’s so hot and dry…
Eyes are uncomfortable.”
“Okay.”
Luo Di decisively sealed off his Hell Attribute temporarily, reducing the heat.
Eye Sister imdiately ca closer and said softly:
“Thanks.”
The two followed the path to the front of the Ghost House, where a rust-stained vertical sign hung on the side – [Soul Chasing and Life Stealing], giving off the feel of an old-fashioned ghost house, even reminiscent of Luo Di’s favorite retro B-movies.
The potted-plant-head manager made a bowing gesture inviting them:
“Welco to Soul Chasing and Life Stealing, this will bring you a brand new fear experience!
Once inside the Ghost House, all you need to do is escape; as long as you can get out, you will receive a [Hotel Passport] from .
I need to remind you.
If you are touched, scratched, etc., by ghosts during the escape, depending on the severity of the injuries, the growth of the potted plant on your neck will accelerate.
If you turn back during the escape, it counts as a failure, and from then on, we are colleagues.
If you are ready, please follow .”
[Entrance]
Cracks and mold on the iron door at the entrance intertwined into a disconcerting pattern.
Gusts of cold air blew out from the gap in the door, mixing with various subtle sounds, as if it was a portal to another world.
Luo Di and Eye Sister did not hesitate at all, swiftly pulling open the iron door and disappearing into the darkness.
The manager sat quietly at the entrance,
always feeling sothing off about the Ghost House—occasional flashes of red light inside and a continuous rise in temperature.
The bone-chilling cold that emanated from the door and wall cracks seed to have dissipated.
The estimated escape ti for the Ghost House was [half an hour], and if they couldn’t get out within that ti, there was basically no hope.
As ti passed,
half an hour,
one hour,
two hours went by,
but the exit still had not opened.
Finally, after two hours and forty minutes, heavy footsteps erged from the back door of the Ghost House, and the iron door was kicked ten ters away.
Breathing in the sulfuric air and wearing the Jaw Splitter, Luo Di finally erged, the plant on his neck barely longer than it had been two and a half hours earlier.
His black trench coat was stained with various malignant fluids, fur, and shattered tissue.
The rotten skull held in his left hand was thrown directly in front of the manager.
Upon seeing the skull,
the manager finally understood why they could stay in the Ghost House for so long; he even had an ominous premonition that the Ghost House might be completely removed after tonight.
Still maintaining his calmness, the manager spoke professionally:
“Mr.
Di, it seems only you have escaped!
As such, I can only provide a passport for one person here.”
After the potted-plant-head manager said this,
Luo Di suddenly turned his Jaw Splitter-covered head, staring deadly at the manager with spreading Killing Intent.
This gaze was not right,
beside Luo Di’s bloodshot eyes, a strange seam appeared on his forehead.
As the seam split open, a third eye hidden inside revealed itself.
Moist,
dark,
deep,
and like a dry well, the eye stared intently at the manager, causing him to stagger back.
At this mont, the manager had an intuitive feeling that the two people who ca to play in the Ghost House were more terrifying than the Ghost House itself.
