Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

The key clue to the hidden quest in Chapter 10 is actually...

In a corner of the room, under a slumped table and chairs, lay a newspaper stained with blood.

Fan Chen hurried over, pulled out the table and chairs, and reached for the newspaper.

At this moment, the headless female ghost took the opportunity to float down and reached for Fan Chen's neck again.

One minute has passed.

Just as Fan Chen touched the newspaper, the female ghost suddenly paused, silently withdrew her hand, and floated back to the roof.

"Hmm? It won't attack the player anymore after the player touches this newspaper?"

"There must be an important clue in this newspaper!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Fan Chen made a judgment.

He picked up the newspaper.

The newspaper is old, but you can still see the words "Fengdu Daily".

"Fengdu..."

Is this the city where the Red Rose Restaurant instance takes place?

Fan Chen quickly scanned the contents of the newspaper.

The newspaper was stained with blood and was a mess, but the writing was still barely legible.

He spotted the front page content immediately.

A horrific tragedy has occurred at the Red Rose Restaurant!

Fan Chen's eyes lit up. The dungeon description mentioned that the restaurant had become strange since that tragedy.

This news story is a crucial clue!

However, the text in the news was stained with blood, becoming blurred and illegible.

But just as Fan Chen was beginning to feel regret...

The words, stained with blood, suddenly became clearer.

It's still blurry, but it's barely recognizable.

"This is... because of the Eye of the Spirit Detector?"

"My ghost-detecting eye has uncovered hidden information."

Fan Chen suddenly understood.

He hurriedly began to decipher the text of the news article.

"The restaurant owner's name is Rose, and she is very kind and generous... She often helps refugees who pass by..."

"There are more and more refugees lately..."

"The restaurant's supplies are running low... yet refugees continue to gather outside..."

"They begged Rose for food, they knelt and pleaded for alms..."

"Faced with the closed restaurant doors, they became increasingly agitated..."

"One night, they stormed into the restaurant..."

"They murdered the restaurant's waiters and chefs..."

"The proprietress, Rose, was also brutally murdered by them..."

"The refugees who had been helped by Rose didn't want to see the condemnation and despair in her eyes before she died..."

"So they cut off her head..."

Fan Chen struggled to read the entire news article.

The headless female ghost remained floating above his head and did not attack again.

Fan Chen already had some understanding of the tragedy that occurred at the Red Rose Restaurant:

Rose, the owner of the Red Rose Restaurant, was murdered and beheaded by the refugees she had helped.

The resentment transformed it into a vengeful ghost, cursing the restaurant.

The starving ghosts wandering outside the restaurant are the lingering souls of those refugees after their deaths.

When the red moon descends, starving ghosts rush into the restaurant, seemingly reenacting the scene of refugees committing murder...

"well……"

Fan Chen sighed, his feelings a mix of emotions.

[Reminder: You have triggered a hidden quest: retrieve Rose's head!]

After the refugees killed her, they discarded her head.

If you can help her find her head, perhaps it will alleviate some of her resentment!

"Find the rose's head?" Fan Chen's expression brightened when he saw the mission prompt.

He successfully triggered the hidden quest!

Completing this task will greatly increase your chances of perfectly clearing this dungeon!

At this moment, Fan Chen suddenly realized something and glanced at the instance time.

Three hours and two minutes.

More than ten minutes had passed since the third red moon appeared, yet it did not fade away.

"After triggering the hidden quest, will the Ghost Restaurant remain stuck at the moment of the Red Moon's descent?"

Fan Chen suddenly understood and glanced at the starving ghost outside the room.

They crowded around the entrance, but dared not step inside.

The cries of "Hungry, so hungry" echoed continuously.

The viewers in the live stream also realized what had happened.

"The Red Moon's glow hasn't stopped... He's triggered a hidden quest!"

"Did he find some information in the newspaper?"

"Holy crap, did he really get a perfect clear on this dungeon?"

"A perfect playthrough on the first try in this eerie world? I've never heard of any player achieving that."

"If I could team up with him, he would definitely be a top carry."

The audience got excited.

Fan Chen's live stream audience has reached over a hundred people.

This number is already quite high, considering that only players in the bizarre world can watch the live stream.

Currently, the total number of players in the Chinese eerie world is only a few hundred thousand.

Only a very small number of players would be interested in F-rank dungeons.

Fan Chen's live stream room can be said to have gathered everyone from that group.

Li Qian stared intently at the live stream screen, her big eyes shining brightly, her fists clenched tightly.

His face showed a hint of eagerness.

"Go for it! Looks like I'm about to witness history!"

At this moment, Fan Chen was deep in thought.

Where is the head of the headless female ghost?

Since the quest has been triggered, it means that the headless ghost's head must be inside the Red Rose Restaurant.

The Red Rose Restaurant wasn't a large place, and Fan Chen had explored almost every corner of it.

He even inspected the kitchen, including places where things might be hidden, such as freezers, refrigerators, and cabinets, when he was doing professional trial missions.

He found no trace of a head.

Where is that head?

As Fan Chen brainstormed, he looked up at the headless female ghost above him.

She wore a cheongsam, her figure graceful.

Fan Chen could almost picture in his mind its gentle and graceful appearance with its long, flowing black hair when its body was intact...

Wait, the hair!

Fan Chen's body trembled, and his eyes widened suddenly.

He recalled the scene he witnessed when he first entered the Red Rose Restaurant.

The restaurant has a neon sign that reads "Red Rose," which flashes with colorful lights.

A trash can was placed on one side of the restaurant entrance.

A few strands of long hair peeked out from inside, swaying gently...

The headless female ghost's head is in the trash can outside the restaurant!

The area outside the restaurant is also within the scope of the instance.

It turns out that all players saw the most important information as soon as they entered the dungeon!

With that in mind, Fan Chen no longer hesitated.

He glanced at the starving ghosts crowding the doorway, took a deep breath, and swung his tiger-slaying sword with a single stroke.

With the help of the gutting skill, a whole bunch of hungry ghosts fell down.

He rushed out.

Wielding a machete, he seemed to have transformed into a humanoid ferocious beast, advancing all the way.

Even if other players had the same level, class, and equipment as Fan Chen, they probably wouldn't dare to charge into the ghost horde alone like that.

One wrong move and you could be grabbed by a starving ghost and devoured.

The hidden missions in this eerie world are extremely difficult.

Sometimes, even if you know the strategy, you may not be able to do it easily.

But for Fan Chen, these starving ghosts posed almost no threat, except for the psychological nausea they caused him.

He charged forward, reached the stairs, entered the lobby, and rushed out of the restaurant.

During this process, his stamina attribute rapidly decreased due to the repeated use of the gutting skill.

I'm starting to feel a bit tired.

No problem, he has a power bank.

"I'm going to kill you..."

"You'll never get rid of me..."

"Die, I want you dead..."

The curse of the Tiger-Slaying Blade was activated just in time, and Li Hu's ramblings echoed in Fan Chen's ears.

The Grudge itself possesses a certain degree of self-will.

Li Hu hates Fan Chen intensely, and it will choose to launch its attack at the moment when Fan Chen is in the most danger.

Fan Chen: Thank you.

Spirit +7

Endurance +9

Endurance +2

Endurance cap +1

……

The curse of the Tiger-Slaying Blade is enough to compensate for the stamina consumption of the Butcher's skills.

The veteran players watching the live stream didn't understand why Fan Chen was acting like a madman, trying to rush outside.

But they couldn't say anything; they just stared intently at Fan Chen's actions.

Soon, Fan Chen finally rushed to the restaurant entrance.

After delivering a devastating horizontal slash that seemed to rip open the restaurant, Fan Chen successfully broke free.

He lunged at the nearby trash can, lifted the lid, and grabbed the stray strand of hair that had managed to escape.

With a forceful pull, a head was lifted out.

"It's a success!"

"The headless female ghost's head was indeed in the trash can!"

Fan Chen was overjoyed; he had guessed correctly!

On that head was a beautiful face with wide-open eyes, frozen with a multitude of emotions.

[Hint: You've found the rose's head!]

Spirit level: ?

Effect: The starving ghosts fear Rose's dying rebuke. Possess it, and the starving ghosts will dare not approach you.

Fan Chen was slightly taken aback when he saw the prompt in front of him.

The spirit level display for this head is "?".

This indicates that its supernatural level far exceeds Fan Chen's current spiritual level, making it impossible to detect.

This is the head of the headless female ghost.

In other words, this probably represents the spiritual level of the headless female ghost!
