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

"Hey! Hey!"

Are you alright?

"Quick! Take this! Take this and we're going up to the fifth floor! We'll only be safe on the fifth floor!"

As always, Bell raised the candle in his hand and offered it to An Lan.

Can...

This time, An Lan took the candle directly and slammed it to the ground!

"Thump!!!"

The flames went out instantly.

After a flash of shock across Belle's face, who was dressed in tattered clothes but had an exceptionally high level of beauty, her perfect European-style face quickly collapsed and gradually transformed into a familiar girl's face in An Lan's eyes!

The girl at the entrance, the one who was in charge of lighting the fire!

Without the cover of the candlelight, Belle transformed into the Little Match Girl!

"you!"

The other party had barely uttered the word "you" when An Lan gave him no chance. Suddenly, scales surged and enveloped his arms, and his hands gripped the other party's neck tightly, squeezing him until his face turned red!

"Ugh! Ugh—Ugh!!!"

A suffocating sense of despair washed over him, and "Luosang" was almost dumbfounded!

No?

Why should I?

I am [Bell]!

I just saved their life!

Why did this guy, this kid from China, just strangle himself without saying a word?

"You...you..."

Seeing the wailing and groaning, yet the other party remained unmoved, Luo Sang's face darkened: "[Nullify]!!!"

"Buzz—"

After a strange fluctuation rippled outwards from Luo Sang, the scales on An Lan's arm began to recede rapidly, and her arm, which was being held and shaken loose by the other's hand, became unstable!

"Shit! Shit! Thank!"

"You bastard! When exactly did you discover my problem?!"

Insulting An Lan, Luo Sang was about to kick her in the chest, but An Lan seemed unsurprised that her ability would be [Nullified], and looked at Luo Sang with a mocking expression: "I've been waiting for you to use [Nullification]!"

"[Memory Alteration]!!!"

"What?!"

"Pop!"

Visibly, a strange ripple spread across An Lan's eyes. Luo Sang felt his mind go blank, then his struggling movements ceased, and like a puppet on strings, he allowed An Lan to lift and shake him however she pleased...

"Bang!"

An Lan casually tossed Luo Sang to the ground and said coldly, "Tell me! What's your situation?"

"Report!"

"【Chameleon Rosang】, a member of Lord 【Death】's squad! They've settled here to acquire the skin of 【Anger】 and assist 【False Man】 in invading the fairytale world!"

Luo Sang immediately stood up and saluted An Lan!

"ha?"

His words caused An Lan's mind to freeze for a moment.

That's a lot of information in just one sentence!

What is a chameleon?

"And who is Lord Death?"

"What 'anger' shell? What 'false person'? Are you referring to those weirdos?"

Scratching the back of his head, An Lan, as someone who entered the "instance" late, really couldn't understand the current situation.

He simply waved to Luo Sang: "Is 'Chameleon' your title?"

"Yes, sir!"

"My ability is [shapeshifting]; I can conjure up anything I've ever seen! It was using this ability that I transformed into the [Beast Prince] and tricked and killed the [Little Match Girl]!"

"Oh?"

"So you put on her skin? And that's how you use her power?"

"No! Sir, it's this!"

Shaking his head, Luo Sang took out a strange matchbox from his pocket. The matchbox was very old-fashioned, a rectangular paper box that looked quite ordinary.

but...

As An Lan took it from the other party, a label appeared on the [Matchbox].

[Fairy Tale Prop: A Dying Fantasy]

[A Dying Fantasy: A Blessed Matchbox. When you carry this item and light a flame, you can see whatever you desire in the firelight. This effect can only be used on one target!]

"Oh?"

"A strange prop?"

"Great stuff! It's mine!"

An Lan quickly pocketed the matchbox, then sized up Luo Sang's appearance, muttering, "Did you peel off this skin yourself?"

"No, no, no—"

"I sent it to the Little Red Riding Hood workshop, and they peeled it for me!"

"Little Red Riding Hood Workshop?"

"That's right! Sir, don't you know? That's the headquarters of the [False Humans]!"

"Huh? How do you know about [the fake person]?"

An Lan was genuinely curious.

If this is the starting point for entering the instance, it's impossible for someone to know all this, right?

"grown ups!"

Look!

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!"

Unexpectedly, after saying that, Luo Sang slowly peeled off his skin. With a sound of flesh tearing, An Lan watched in disbelief as the skin of the "Little Match Girl" was ripped off Luo Sang's body!

The smooth leather was perfectly preserved, and it even felt icy cold when it was delivered to An Lan.

【drop--】

Wearing this item will automatically select the "Skinner/False Human" faction!

Almost as soon as he got his hands on the human skin, An Lan heard the long-lost notification sound of the [Instance] in his ears.

"Oh?"

"There's also a faction option?"

"So... once you put on the skin, you're automatically considered a 'fake person'? No wonder... I didn't like the look on your head back then?"

An Lan pondered the taste and then put the human skin into her bosom.

mine!

They're all mine!

Anlan never finds it troublesome as long as it's useful.

"By the way...you just mentioned Lord Death! Isn't he one of the four guardians of the Energy Absorption Society?"

"right!"

"So, how many people did you send to Yangliu [Instance] this time?"

"two..."

"Oh? Who's the other one? Where is he?"

"I don't know! The master only instructed us to slow down Jiang Lai's progress!"

"I see... One last question, what did you mean by 'the skin of anger'? Was it the skin of the 'Beast Prince'?"

"To be precise, it's the skin of the [Beast Prince] in his rage! In other words, the skin when he's completely transformed into a beast!"

"The fairy tale world is divided into two mirror worlds: [Good] and [Evil]! The [False Man] invaded and only descended into the [Evil] world! That is now the [Dark Fairy Tale] world!"

"To fully enter the normal 'fairytale world,' you need to collect all seven emotional shells and open the gaps..."

"Once you join the [False Human Faction], you'll need to help them acquire skins... Conversely, if you join another faction, the tasks will be different!"

"Oh?"

"So... you're here just to cooperate with the [False Man] and obtain the skin of [Anger]?"

"Yes!"

"By accelerating the [False Human] invasion, we can gain a greater advantage in controlling the [Instance]!"

"I see..."

"..."

As An Lan stroked her chin, she gradually understood everything.

Depend on!

At first, I was really just a guinea pig running around, being used as an idiot by Luo Sang!

He took the skin from "The Little Match Girl" to help the "fake people" get in. But... why are those "fake people" so obsessed with getting the rose?

Come again!

With Rosang's design, why not just find a fake person to impersonate Bell and lure the Beast Prince into the fifth floor?

He asked Luo Sang about this question that had been on his mind, and Luo Sang frowned slightly, a rare occurrence on his blank face.

"grown ups..."

"You...you must not have read the complete 'The Beast Prince'?"

"ha?"

"The curse of the 'Beast Prince' is that he has the chance to become human again until the last flower withers. The rose on the second floor is the flower..."

"The 'fake humans' are incredibly stupid, so they keep trying to steal the rose to prevent the 'Beast Prince' from ever becoming human!"

"As for why I didn't let the [Fake Man] cooperate to become [Bell]?"

"Actually... no matter who it is, once they become [Bell], they will be bitten to death by the [Beast Prince] in a short time! Unless, the person who becomes [Bell] has excellent physical abilities!"

"He managed to run to the fifth floor in time!"

"so..."

"You fucking chose me?!"

"..."
