Weak in affinity talent? Female ghosts are eager to give hints.

"Grass..."

"We're doomed!"

"I can't possibly follow their example and tear my own face off now, can I?!"

"..."

With a grim expression, An Lan looked around and saw that the strange people had already surrounded her in circles!

"Skin!"

"Let me see the skin! Let me see it!!!"

The strange person in her arms, with all ten fingers rotted and falling off, had saliva splattering from their densely packed, overlapping teeth, and suddenly bit down on An Lan's jaw!

"Fuck you!"

An Lan finally couldn't hold back any longer!

An Lan kicked out at the strange man's chest, sending him staggering back several steps. The candlestick in An Lan's hand flickered, and just as she was about to face the other strange men—

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

His vision blurred for a moment, then he felt a tremor beneath his feet. When he regained his composure and looked up again, the circular flowerbed had vanished, and he was surrounded by complete darkness!

He instantly returned to the first floor?!

"Um?"

"What am I doing?!"

"Pi! Pi! Let me see Pi!!!"

"I want it! I want your skin!"

"Mine! Mine!"

"..."

Can!

Before An Lan could even register her surprise, light and shadow flickered again in the surrounding darkness! The strange figures split into pairs, also shaking their candlesticks, and appeared on the first floor!

An Lan squinted again, a hint of understanding flashing in her eyes.

He seems to have figured something out...

Do we need two people to go up to the second floor?

or?

Does it require determining whether it's a man or a woman?

Once the group separates, it seems like they'll be kicked out of the second floor?

"Skin! Give me skin!"

"Bang!!!"

A strange creature lunged forward. Once its outer skin had completely peeled away, it revealed a humanoid, deformed, short-armed, short-legged, eyeless, noseless, purple monster. The monster's mouth gaped open, and after shedding its human skin, it seemed to lose its balance and collapsed to the ground!

"Ta-da!"

Despite its short limbs, its crawling speed is surprisingly amazing!

"Skin!!!!!"

An Lan was not paying attention for a moment, and the strange man crawled between her legs!

Holy crap!

"Where the hell am I going?!"

With a clang, An Lan hurled the candlestick at the strange man and ran toward the castle gate without a word!

However...

An Lan never expected what would happen!

"Tap tap tap—"

The girl who had been guarding the gate was now strolling at the entrance, staring at him coldly, a rare smile playing on her lips: "I knew it... I knew it..."

"You are a human being!"

"What?!"

Goodbye!

"Bang!"

The girl forcefully pushed open the castle's massive doors, the heavy wooden doors creaking shut in the darkness! The only light source inside vanished instantly. An Lan slammed against the door and pushed hard, but the door...didn't budge an inch!

"Damn it..."

"That guy doesn't have any [affinity] indicator... he probably isn't human either..."

"She...is just a shell...so the [Goddess Conquest System] didn't trigger, right?"

As An Lan belatedly came to her senses, her back suddenly felt heavy!

"Pi-Pi!!!"

"I want your skin!"

"Your skin is amazing!"

"..."

The candlelight flickered in the darkness, and the heat of the light instantly drew closer! An Lan felt a sudden tearing sensation on both sides of her shoulders, as if countless needles were piercing through, slowly separating flesh from blood!

A foul stench filled the air, accompanied by the sounds of frantic chewing.

"Skin!"

"Skin--!!!"

Four or five strange figures had already climbed onto his back! And more and more flickering candlelight were getting closer! In the darkness, the grinding sound of teeth gathered...

An Lan didn't turn around; he was well aware of the current situation!

There aren't many strategies to deal with them right now. Either use [Savage Evolution] to kill them all!

Or...

Have Chu Ningrou use [Spatial Displacement] to send herself out of the castle.

And another option is to restart!

The former is unstable, and An Lan doesn't know exactly how many "weirdos" there are. If they can't be killed off, then the "Savage Evolution" will be wasted.

As for asking Chu Ningrou for help?

Although she is not a ghost and can appear in this "dungeon", it doesn't seem good to expose this ability during a live stream.

The safest option is to restart!

"Pi! Pi ah!!!"

"Sizzle!"

A piece of flesh on her collarbone was torn open by a claw-like object. An Lan trembled in pain. After a piercing pain, she could feel something... drilling into the flesh under her back!

"C!"

"What the hell is going on with this [dungeon]?!"

"[The perfect timeline]!!!"

With [Reincarnation Reset] available, An Lan didn't waste any time. After the skill icon flashed, the surrounding scene suddenly froze!

The strange figures that had been clinging to his back began to leap back to the ground, and the closed door started to reopen, revealing the woman grinning maliciously once more in the doorway...

Time has begun to flow backward!

"Buzzing—"

fall back!

fall back!

fall back!

until...

An Lan reappeared outside the castle!

[666! Anlan is back in the dungeon!]

【Huh? Why does this scene seem so familiar?】

[Of course it looks familiar! This dungeon looks like the one in Yangliu!]

【...】

The comments section returned to its previous lively state, as if nothing had happened before.

Standing once again at the castle entrance, An Lan let out a long breath, her gaze suddenly becoming profound.

He hadn't known before that those "strange people" were operating in human skin; he simply thought the fairy tale world had been corrupted. But now it seems that monsters in human skin may have already taken over the "fairy tale world"?

The Three Little Pigs?

Jack and the Beanstalk?

【little Red Riding Hood】?

These were all unusual behaviors during the last [Instance].

It's not because they're contaminated, but because they're just a shell!

"so..."

"Why was that girl lighting a fire at the door?"

"And whose skin is she?"

"And...why are these 'weirdos' picking the purple roses on the second floor? Is there some symbolic meaning?"

"..."

As various thoughts swirled in her mind, An Lan suddenly felt a vibration on her wrist.

The Cursed Collar seemed to sense something and was fluctuating excitedly.

[Oh? Not just a handsome guy, but also a survivor with time manipulation abilities? Interesting...interesting...you've piqued my curiosity, handsome young man!]

Do more interesting things, and perhaps... I wouldn't mind helping you see the problems in this world...

"Um?"

"This is..."

"Did your previous actions attract the attention of other dimensions?"

Looking at the [Cursed Collar] with some surprise, An Lan was astonished to find that the guy from another dimension was not affected by her rewind?

he...

Can you go through the flashback yourself and not forget the memories?

"..."

After the collar vibrated slightly, it remained silent.

After hesitating for a moment, An Lan decisively put the [Curse Collar] around her neck!

Since we're going to explore this place, the situation is bound to be unstable. There are already so many strange people here, what's one more collar around the neck?

"you..."

Why aren't you in line?!

"You—you..."

Suddenly!

The scene repeated itself once again!

On the red carpet to the left of the castle, a group of masked men all turned their gazes toward An Lan. An Lan narrowed her eyes, this time not rushing over...

instead!

He slowly produced a wedding dress from behind him, as if by magic!

That's right!

It was the wedding dress I bought on Wen Lan's advice.

White tulle dress, crystal shoes...

The moment this thing was pulled out, the men were all stunned, and even the girl at the door looked at An Lan with suspicion.

No?

What are you doing?

[Happy Hero: What is Anlan trying to do?]

[Beware Superman: I have a bold idea, he...he wouldn't be going to...]

[Superman: Is he planning to cross-dress and follow the path of the woman on the right?!]

【...】

The comments section exploded at that moment!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, An Lan calmly draped herself in a gauze dress, put on a scarf, changed into crystal shoes, and swayed gracefully as she walked onto the red carpet on the right!
