Chapter 410: The Woman Who Hanged Herself
[Mythical Phase]
The system only provided a minute for drawing cards and dice rolls.
It was improbable for Han Dong to undertake such peculiar actions under the public’s scrutinizing gaze.
But as soon as all the main characters left the warehouse due to the screams coming from inside the supermarket,
Han Dong quickly reached into his oily On Pouch and drew a card embedded in the wall.
“Damn it!!”
Looking at the three octopus-head symbols on the card’s surface as hard to deal with as the previous one, Han Dong couldn’t help but curse.
Even though he had to fully concentrate on such a difficulty… no high-level ability card symbolizing the “Faceless Skull” could be obtained afterwards.
“We should try to handle it first, striving to capture the monster alive and sacrifice it in the temple.
If I could upgrade two basic cards, I could potentially start the exploration of the mist… As for the skull setting, getting it would naturally decrease the difficulty, but there’s no need to force it.
The longer we delay, the more the danger in the mist will multiply.
During this fate event, the concept of waiting absolutely cannot arise in one’s mind”.
Dice roll…[1].
“The numbers don’t match, the on appears.”
[On – Naless Believer]
Region: General Supermarket
Fear: ★★★
Origin:
Due to the prolonged state of tension combined with the ‘sense of despair’ intensifying over ti, it is continuously piling up in every citizen’s body present in the supermarket.
So citizens have already developed ntal illnesses, opening up a special ‘ntal channel’ in their brains.
They will be directly influenced by higher level ntal entities from outside, causing changes at the soul’s plane.
Currently, the supermarket has [3] people affected by the ntal plane, their souls distorted.
Special Traits: Good at disguises, can influence common people directly through touch, hard to kill.
(Note: The people affected by ntal influence have no possibility of being healed.)
Requirent: The protagonist (David), [three] or more supermarket workers and [eight] or more townspeople must not be affected and fall due to ntal influence, otherwise, you will not get the corresponding On Value.
……
“This is another ‘Second Five Man’ type of on, requiring
to find the variations in a short ti, otherwise, the entire supermarket will decay and mutate.
However, compared to the only one-level difficulty Cold Spider event.
This [On – Naless Believer] has many details that need to be noticed, once improperly handled, the event will fail.”
Han Dong still had so doubts.
“Speaking freely, the supermarket itself is protected by the temple.
The arrival of the mythic phase has led to the [On] directly descending upon the supermarket.
It seems like the safe supermarket actually possesses flaws… I must expedite exploring the mist, the longer we hide in the supermarket, the higher the probability of death.”
……
Han Dong no longer wasted ti, he quickly left the warehouse.
Observing his surroundings in the supermarket lobby was his first priority..
Haven’t discovered any horrifying scenes yet.
But, there were a few people who were severely terrified.
Wrapped in blankets, their eyes were lost, faces pale, the hands holding the hot coffee were shaking… stamring, they couldn’t even clearly articulate what they had witnessed.
Han Dong first found David, the main character who was comforting these people, and pulled him aside for a talk.
“David, what was the situation just now? Which fool was screaming?”
David’s face also looked terrible, entirely reliant on the strong ntal quality provided by the protagonist’s halo.
“About an hour ago, Ms. Susanna hanged herself in the bathroom.
Since she was directly bumped into by another woman coming to use the bathroom, the news spread imdiately, everyone knew about this suicide.”
“Then?”
“Considering that the corpse might decay and affect the supermarket’s internal environnt… we sealed ‘Ms. Susanna’ in a bag and secretly tossed it out.
Just now, Ms. Susanna’s corpse mysteriously reappeared in the bathroom, still hanging, and was unexpectedly stumbled upon by a woman in the restroom.
In her account, there was clearly no one in the bathroom when she entered.
When she ca out of the stall, Ms. Susanna was already hanging in the bathroom.
Attracted by the screams, a total of five people went to the won’s bathroom and witnessed the terrifying scene, the news has already spread in the supermarket.
Everyone is a little restless… Especially the five who witnessed the corpse, their ntal state is unprecedentedly bad.”
“Mama mia! Didn’t you guys think about burning it? All you sons of bitches don’t deserve to survive.”
Han Dong cussed in anger, of course, it was only ant to chastise.
As the arrival of the On was inevitable, things were bound to happen.
Even if the body was burnt, it probably could have reappeared hanging in the bathroom.
David also realized his mistake, attempting to explain: “Well… gasoline is limited, we thought of conserving it, using it more to deal against the monsters in the mist.
Mr. Nicholas, do you have any good ideas?”
Han Dong angrily bit his teeth, imdiately popping a piece of chewing gum into his mouth to reduce his rage.
“First gather the five who were severely shocked in the staff break room, give them tranquilizing dications directly.
In the anti, you all hurry and announce the information about the existence of mist at the boundary, light the fla of hope for everyone.
Use ‘Hope’s Light’ to sweep away the despair and fear in the hearts of the townspeople.”
“Okay, Mr. Nicholas… How should we deal with Ms. Susanna in the bathroom? If this bizarre event can’t be dealt with, everyone will fall into a state of panic.”
Even the main character, David, couldn’t understand and was fearful of the hanged woman in the bathroom.
“A bunch of good-for-nothings! I will take a look first, no one is to move…
I went to the hidden underground area earlier and, by overcoming fear, obtained the power of ‘xican workers’, which might happen to solve this conundrum.”
Han Dong directly ntioned the xican workers event to explain his power, laying the groundwork in advance.
After all, during subsequent exploration of the mist, his powers will be used often.
If this opportunity could be used to allow the likes of David to accept the establishnt of his powers beforehand, it would be a good thing.
“xican workers… Alright!”
The protagonist, David, stared at this eccentric writer.
Though this explanation seed a bit weird, but now with various monsters and paranormal events frequently turning up… it seems relatively reasonable.
After all, they had indeed seen so terrifying horrid illusions ford by xicans in an underground opening.
Han Dong wasn’t a local and wouldn’t incur the hatred of the xican workers.
“We’ll leave the matter of woman in the bathroom to you then!”
Han Dong suddenly grabbed David’s shoulder: “This matter might be similar to the previous ‘Cold Spider event’… the possibility of others also being affected and ‘mutated’ can’t be ruled out.
You understand what I an, right?”
“Understood… once discovered, we will directly ‘deal’ with them.”
