Chapter 266: Glad to Serve You
Wu Chang followed Bae Tae Hyung to what he called the morgue.

The morgue is in darkness. It was originally the cold storage of the research station. When the research station was still operating normally, it was used to store food. When the research station was constantly attacked by monsters in the dark and team members died frequently, it was used to temporarily store the bodies of the dead.

When the cold storage was opened, more than twenty corpses were found piled up in a mess. What was surprising was that about half of these corpses had a light red resentment on their bodies.

Judging from the clothes of the dead, only three or four of them were natives of the plane, and the rest were players.

There were no obvious signs of combat on the players' bodies. Some had fatal injuries such as slit throats or bullet swallowing, but most died easily.

Relaxed, but not peaceful.

Their eyes were wide open and their expressions were distorted like the little bald man in the famous painting "The Scream". They had obviously suffered a huge mental shock, which led to the collapse of their wills and the loss of inspiration.

Pei Taiheng said on the side: "From what I remember, most of these dead people died from monsters in the dark. Monsters in the dark will only devour us. The later ones he killed will be displayed around the research station as if to show off."

Bae Taehyung looked at the corpse on the ground, carefully identified it for a while, and pointed his finger at an old black man wearing Mickey Mouse clothes. It is rumored that even if you are in an uninhabited area, as long as you put on this suit, you will be taken out of the court by Disney's legal department.

Unfortunately, the strongest legal department on Blue Planet was unable to reach into the Abyss Game.

"As far as I can remember, he was the last expedition member to go into the water. When I was unconscious before, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But now it seems that such a person can be a member of the expedition team?"

Wu Chang shrugged and said, "Who knows, maybe if he recites Miska, Moska can directly summon the hidden room in the ruins."

He looked at Mi Laohei and didn't think there was anything wrong at first glance. After looking carefully twice, he found that there was a hole in the black tights on Mi Laohei's upper body, and the hole was pitch black.

It was not the black of his skin, but some deeper black, as if it was erasing something.

If it were someone else, it would take a lot of effort to figure out what was erased.

Wu Chang doesn't need to. If Mi Laohei has a grudge in his body, he can ask him directly.

He looked at Mi Laohei's resentment, and the resentment twisted, like a human-shaped mouse dancing a ghostly dance, jumping towards him.

The next moment, his consciousness was filled with resentment.

This time, he was in the third perspective. When he looked in, he saw Mi Laohei taking the key to the ruins from Bae Taehyung.

Mi Laohei was very familiar with the process. He did not need Bae Taehyung's guidance. He walked directly into the darkness and came to the place where the diving suits were stored. It was obvious that he came prepared.

You have to know that at that time, the Shivering Icefield had not yet been broken and the intelligence had not yet been shared. To be able to grasp the intelligence of the Night Island Research Station so thoroughly, Michael Black was definitely not from an ordinary organization, either from the White Tower or from the French Blue Branch of the Western Union.

Walking in the darkness, a certain energy emanated from Mi Laohei's clothes, resisting the malice in the darkness.

It can be seen that he wore the Mickey Mouse COS costume not just out of hobby, but that costume is also a defensive prop of a high level.

After putting on a diving suit, he went directly to the underground space. When he passed by a large number of upside-down fishmen, he didn't even look at them, showing that he was well-trained and had a clear goal.

He definitely came here with a mission. Maybe if we let him perform some Miskamosca, he could really come up with something.

Mi Laohei jumped into the pool, inserted the key into the keyhole, and after turning it three times, the door leading to the underground opened like a gate.

He crept behind the door and turned on his diving suit's headlamp.

Under the light of the headlights, the outline of a building vaguely emerged below. It was the ruins sunk in the water, the former holy place of the Naaru, the Temple of Death.

He continued to dive, and suddenly felt an abnormal current around him, as if there was something around him. He turned his head and shone his headlight, but there was nothing in the water, only darkness.

He continued to dive for more than ten meters, and suddenly looked back again. This time he discovered something and saw a huge black shadow passing by.

There is something in the water.

He took out his weapon and continued to dive, keeping an eye on his surroundings.

He felt the thing again and turned to look, this time his headlights caught a dark shadow.

It was a gigantic monster with a body length of more than 20 meters. It looked like a ball of black fog or a mass of wriggling mucus. At the tail of the huge mass of mucus, there were seven or eight rotten and festering tentacles.

At the front end of its body, there is a small white pointed horn. To be precise, it is a conch.

The headlights shone on the white conch, reflecting a dazzling light, as blinding as crossing the road late at night and suddenly seeing an overloaded truck with its high beams on speeding towards you.

It was a dazzling brilliance with weight.

Under the light, he saw his childhood, the father he had never met, the small supermarket where he often shopped for free, and the fat police officer who often used him to practice shooting.

Call ~
The monster whizzed past, and before he could see clearly, he was hit and flew away by the monster.

The monster's tentacles pierced through the diving suit, pierced through the tight black top of the Mix Mouse COS suit, and stabbed hard into his chest, leaving a stamp on it.

It was a red mark that looked like a whirlpool, and his wounds flowed out of the mark, causing the whirlpool to spin.

The spinning vortex sucked his consciousness in. Before he could see clearly what was inside the vortex, his will was shattered by the existence inside the vortex.

Mi Laohei was like a puppet, controlling his body to slowly float up, and under the guidance of the vortex mark, he went straight away from the scientific research station.

He stood in the darkness, the red mark on his chest flickering, emitting some kind of signal.

Not long after, a figure walked out of the darkness.

He took the key from Mi Laohei and whispered, "The future is irreversible. The Lord will surely cleanse the world of all sins. We are ready for the Day of Judgment."

The next moment, the scene of resentment was interrupted.

Wu Chang woke up and recalled the figure that appeared last. Judging from the body shape and voice, the other person was the missing Hiroyuki Fujita.

Wu Chang shook his head in disdain, feeling somewhat disappointed with Hiroyuki Fujita, who concealed clues to the ruins, killed Wells, and planned the attack on the research station.

After paying so much, he thought the other party had great ambitions, but this is the result?
Putting aside Fujita Hiroyuki, Wu Chang looked at Mi Laohei's chest. That dark area was exactly where the vortex mark of resentment was imprinted.

He took the opportunity to observe the other dead players and briefly checked the resentment of several players. Their resentment was similar to that of Mi Laohei.

Some were attacked by underwater monsters after entering the water; some ventured into exploring the rooms inside the research station during their stay and were affected by hallucinations and nightmares, with marks gradually appearing on their chests; and some were directly bewitched by Hiroyuki Fujita and entered the darkness.

After looking around, he came to two conclusions.

The red vortex mark can attract Hiroyuki Fujita, who has the key to open the iron gate under the pool.

The white conch is inside the slime tentacle monster underwater.

Seeing that Wu Chang remained silent, Pei Taiheng asked, "Are you okay?"

Wu Chang came back to his senses and said, "I have finished reading it and found a lot of useful information."

Bae Taehyung: “Ah?”

He was a little confused and wondered in his heart, is this guy in front of him reliable?
He didn't even touch the body of the deceased. He just glanced around from two or three meters away. It took less than a minute, and he was done with that?

With such a perfunctory explanation, he was able to tell how many men and women were dead. This guy is quick in mental arithmetic and discovered a lot of information. If you can really discover it, then Holmes should let you play the role.

Pei Taiheng curled his lips, having already determined that Wu Chang was a fake and categorized him as the same type as himself.

The two left the cold storage and returned to the hall. Jian Xing and others came over and asked Wu Chang how things were going.

Wu Chang said: "I found obvious commonalities among the deceased. I have an idea of ​​the next step, but I need to prepare a little bit."

Director Gao asked, "What do you need us to do?"

Wu Chang shook his head and said, "I can do it myself."

On the other side, Johnson pulled Pei Taiheng to the lounge and asked quietly, "What's the situation?"

Compared to outsiders like Wu Chang, Johnson trusts his own people more, especially Pei Taiheng, who is as docile as his own son. Pei Taiheng whispered, "Be careful of that guy. He talks nicely but is actually perfunctory. He doesn't even bother to bend down to investigate. Why don't I see any obvious common points? If he can get anything, I won't eat kimchi for a year!"

Wu Chang didn't pay attention to what was happening next door. He started to make preparations in front of several people.

Fujita Hiroyuki is very cunning. He will only attack the weak who are alone, or the targets whose wills have collapsed and have red swirl marks on their bodies.

Wu Chang had dispelled the ill intentions on the way here. If he pretended to be weak, the other party would definitely not take the bait, so he could only start with the vortex mark.

If other players want to catch Fujita Hiroyuki, they just need to pick a lucky person from Johnson's foursome or their companions, make their will collapse, and reveal the vortex mark, and then throw them out as bait.

However, Wu Chang didn't like this approach, and it was unnecessary.

He had read through the resentments many times, and each resentment was a personal experience. He was very familiar with the appearance and aura of the vortex mark.

He took off his shirt and looked at his chest. Under the effect of his talent of turning the void into reality, a red vortex-like mark appeared on his chest.

Jian Xing was puzzled; "What are you doing?"

Wu Chang said: "All players who died from the monster in the dark have this mark on their bodies. It may help me lure out the monster."

Director Gao was puzzled: "Can we lure the other party into taking the bait by simply drawing a mark?"

Wu Chang explained: "It's not just a simple resemblance in appearance, I imitated its aura."

Director Gao said tentatively: "I don't remember you having this ability before."

Being able to imitate the aura of the BOSS mark in the A-level copy is not something that can be achieved by just any skill.

Wu Chang had no intention of hiding anything, and said in a relaxed tone: "I didn't have time to tell you that the days I disappeared before were not just because I was lazy, but because I took the opportunity to change my job."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes changed instantly. In everyone's impression, Wu Chang had never been good at fighting, but they didn't expect that he had changed his job without making any noise.

Jian Xing opened his mouth slightly, and just as he was about to say something, Director Gao spoke first.

"Why didn't you discuss this with me in advance? Job change is a big deal and can't be taken lightly. Once it's completed, you can only change your job by advancing to the second level of the Abyss."

"What stage have you reached in your job transfer? If you haven't completed it yet, get out and give up the mission immediately. We still have two golden job transfers in our bureau. They may not be completely suitable for you, but at least their levels are not weak. I can make an exception for you."

Wu Chang blinked. Although in his eyes, other job transfers were useless except for the hidden job transfer, but even in the four major organizations, the golden job transfer was a rare good thing.

How could Wanghai Branch keep two?

"Do we still have this good stuff in our bureau?"

Director Gao said proudly: "Although our bureau is small, thanks to the previous director's strength, we have been able to obtain a valuable treasure. Every time it is deployed, it can earn a lot of appearance fees. In fact, our financial resources are richer than some first-tier cities."

Wu Chang said: "Golden job transfer is so precious, is it appropriate to grant it to me?"

Director Gao said disdainfully: "Whether it is suitable or not is not up to me to decide. You have made contributions to Wanghai City, and just because you are willing to come in, I think it is suitable. No one is more suitable than you."

Lei Huo on the side said: "I think so too. If anyone feels there is a problem, they can come and talk to us."

The director and deputy director of the Wanghai Branch both agreed. Even if someone had objections, it would probably be difficult for them to speak up.

Seeing the two people express their opinions in this way, it would be impossible for Wu Changruo to say that he had no reaction at all.

The top leaders of the four major organizations might be planning some unknown conspiracy, which made Wu Chang distrustful of them and even wary of them.

But he had a very good impression of the branches at the bottom, especially the Wanghai Branch. He had seen everything they had done during this period.

If they were not there, even without the painter's instructions, the wild extraordinary people would be able to turn Wanghai City upside down.

Wu Chang was silent for a moment, then pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"Thank you, Directors. But it's not necessary. The job transfer I got is very suitable for me and is no worse than the golden job transfer."

Director Gao narrowed his eyes with a look of disbelief. The golden job change was not something that could be easily obtained. Not to mention a player like Wu Chang who only cared about survival, even a powerful player like Jian Xing who was beyond the current level of the dungeon might not be able to get a golden job change.

"Wu Chang, now is not the time to show off. There are not many opportunities to get benefits from the bureau. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. If you feel it is not suitable, then just consider it as owing the bureau a golden job transfer. When you grow up, you can find a way to repay it."

Wu Chang insisted, "I'm really not showing off. I happened to unlock a hidden mission in my last dungeon, and the job transfer item I got is for inspiration and mental strength. It's very versatile, and I'm very satisfied with it."

Director Gao wanted to persuade him again, but Jian Xing said:
"What Wu Chang said is true. He is indeed very satisfied with his job change."

Jian Xing said so, Director Gao could only believe it. He looked at Wu Chang and said with a smile: "It is said that players with a low level of skill are unlucky and prone to unexpected crises. You are lucky."

"Even though you said no, my words still count. If you change your mind, you can come to me anytime."

Wu Chang nodded and said, "I will."

He looked at everyone, took out the horn in his hand, and said, "I can temporarily resist the darkness on the island with the ability of my job transfer. I will go and fish out the monster in the darkness now. The horn in my hand can restore people to consciousness, and the monster cannot confuse me."

"If I find that I cannot defeat the monster, I will blow the horn to call for help, and then you can come out with night lights."

Wu Chang took the risk of using himself as bait, but everyone had no better plan at the moment, so they could only remind Wu Chang to be careful, and that as long as the green mountains remain, there will be firewood to burn. At worst, he can hide in the research station for seven days and leave when the ship arrives.

Wu Chang made a grasping gesture, pondered in front of the mirror for a moment, and then imitated the appearance of the player in Resentment, with a dull look as if he had lost his soul, and staggered into the darkness.

About fifty meters away from the research station, he imitated the breath of the vortex mark when it was activated, causing the mark on his chest to glow red.

Ten seconds later, he felt prying eyes coming from the darkness.

Pretend to be dazed and wait for the other party to take the bait.

After about two minutes, the figure in the dark finally couldn't help it and moved towards him.

Wu Chang could see the other person, it was the disappeared Hiroyuki Fujita. Seeing the other person in person was much more obvious than seeing him through resentment.

Hiroyuki Fujita is just an ordinary person. At least in Wells' memory and Johnson's description, he has no extraordinary powers. But now he can live in the darkness of the Island of Night and possesses the power to bewitch people. Wu Chang can't help but ask, what is the price?
The price was that Fujita Hiroyuki's body was highly alienated. He had fish-man gills on his neck, and his eyes became like fish eyes, emitting a strange light, and fish scales grew on his exposed body.

Although he did not turn into a fish head, his degree of mermanization was far higher than that of the expedition members hanging in the underground space.

When he was five meters close to Wu Chang, he stretched out his hand forward, and his arm stretched to nearly four meters like a mollusk. When it reached the limit of length, a crack appeared on the palm of his hand, and a white bone spur with mucus and black venom stretched out from it, slowly stabbing towards the vortex mark.

This kid is quite cautious.

Although Fujita Hiroyuki's bone spur could not break Wu Chang's defense, he was not prepared to be stabbed by it.

When the bone spur was about to pierce him, he grabbed it and looked up at the other person.

"Mr. Fujita, I got you."

A look of panic appeared on Fujita Hiroyuki's face, as if a gecko was cutting off its tail to survive. He immediately broke off his outstretched arm and turned around to escape.

"late."

An inconspicuous button on Wu Chang's clothes lit up, releasing an invisible shock wave towards Fujita Hiroyuki.

「Item Skill: Mind Control」

"Skill Description: Launches a mental attack on the target. The strength of the mental attack depends on the user's inspiration. If the mental attack breaks through the target's will barrier, the target will be completely controlled."

Under Wu Changgao's inspiration, Fujita Hiroyuki's will barrier shattered at the touch of a button, as if he was hit by a spell, and he stood there in a daze.

After a moment, the strange light in his fish eyes dimmed, and he walked stiffly back to Wu Chang, bowed and said:

"Hiroyuki Fujita is willing to serve you."
