Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

The headquarters of the Thunder Guild.

The luxurious manor in Vice President Luo Haiwei's personal space.

It's still late at night in the real world.

With the completion of the Lai Xin Mall instance, members of the Thunder Guild received a notification and logged into the game one after another to head to the Luxury Manor.

Shen Lixue appeared in the corridor of the manor, yawning.

"Seriously, what happened that made you call me online in the middle of the night..."

She was still complaining as she walked sleepily into the living room.

"Is it because of Fan Chen's copy?"

"It seems like tonight is the time he'll be entering the dungeon, and the guild even arranged for someone to snipe him."

"Unfortunately, I had a date with my boyfriend today and didn't watch the live stream."

As Shen Lixue was thinking, a female player walked towards her in the dimly lit corridor.

"Hello." Shen Lixue greeted the other person with a polite smile and a nod.

The female player named Peng Ling walked past with a cold expression, without responding at all.

"Tch!" Shen Lixue curled her lip.

She had never liked Peng Ling; she was withdrawn, didn't care about dressing up, and was rather unsophisticated.

I greeted her kindly, but she didn't even respond.

You deserve to be ostracized by your guild members!

"Didn't Peng Ling get a brand new dungeon randomly? Will she be running the same dungeon as Fan Chen tonight?" She suddenly thought of this.

As an ordinary member, she didn't know much about the guild's arrangements.

All that is known is that Peng Ling was randomly assigned to the same new instance as Fan Chen.

Instead of helping her avoid dungeons, the guild arranged for members of the raiding team to share dungeons with her.

Hmph, this is the kind of treatment you get for being unlikable.

but……

Did she successfully survive the new instance?

Shen Lixue turned her head and glanced at Peng Ling's departing figure.

For the brand-new D-rank dungeon, the guild also arranged a raiding team to target Fan Chen.

Before the dungeon started, her friends discussed it privately and all felt that Peng Ling would not be able to survive.

But it seems she's quite lucky.

I wonder how the mission to snipe Fan Chen is going...

The vice president's sudden call for everyone to go online is likely not going to have a good outcome.

Shen Lixue suddenly regretted not watching the live broadcast tonight.

"Quickly find out what happened."

She made her decision and hurriedly ran towards the manor's luxurious living room.

Most of the members she knows will gather here after they log on.

"what?"

Shen Lixue suddenly frowned and looked down at her feet with some disgust.

On the marble floor, for some reason, there was a puddle of mud left behind.

She accidentally stepped on it, and her usually clean expression became somewhat distorted.

"How come there's mud here!"

"Who did this?!"

She grumbled a few words of annoyance and smeared the mud off her feet onto the floor.

Looking around the dark corridor, she then noticed that the mud seemed to be footprints left by someone accidentally.

There was a long string of them, stretching from the front of the corridor all the way inside.

Was this caused by that inconsiderate player?

Because she was in the guild's headquarters, Shen Lixue did not connect the dots to anything strange.

How could there be any trickery at headquarters?

When she arrived at the luxurious living room and saw her girlfriends, she completely forgot about the incident.

There were already more than a dozen players gathered in the living room.

There is a large-screen TV in the living room, showing Fan Chen's live broadcast.

The live stream has ended, the screen is black, and only the words "D-level dungeon 'Laixin Mall' has been conquered!" remain.

However, many viewers remained in the live stream room, with a constant stream of comments.

You can also watch the live stream inside the guild base.

Some people prefer watching offline, but many members also enjoy the comfortable environment of the base camp.

Clearly, quite a few people stayed here to watch Fan Chen's live stream.

Shen Lixue sat down next to her friends and looked at the TV screen.

"My brother Chen is awesome! Let's see who dares to challenge me now!"

"Entered the bizarre world six times, and cleared it perfectly each time. Who else can do that?"

"It wasn't six times, it was seven times. He even perfectly cleared a dungeon, but he didn't stream it live, though it's recorded on the forum."

"Of the eighteen players at Laixin Shopping Mall, only five survived. The mortality rate is terrifying."

"The situation is special. This instance not only has cultists but also Mud Granny. The actual difficulty is probably already at C level."

"The entire Mortal Clan survived; that's what makes it valuable."

"I really want to join this guild, and I really want to be carried by Fan Chen."

Shen Lixue was somewhat surprised, yet also felt that it made sense when she saw this information.

Fan Chen cleared the level perfectly once again, carrying the entire guild to victory.

Shen Lixue suddenly felt a bit annoyed.

"If only the Thunder Guild had recruited Fan Chen sooner, I might have been able to latch onto their coattails."

"Li Qian, how come that arrogant woman has such good luck!"

"Having just left Thunder and joined the mortal realm, I perfectly cleared the brand new D-rank dungeon..."

Shen Lixue had never liked Li Qian, so she couldn't help but feel resentful.

Then she thought of something, and her expression changed.

Only five people survived this dungeon. Excluding the four from the Fanchen Guild, the remaining person was Peng Ling.

The two members of the Thunder Guild who went in with them are both dead?

She didn't know who the two pioneers were.

But the fact that he was assigned to snipe Fan Chen means he must be quite capable.

While everyone else perished, Peng Ling, an ordinary player, survived.

What gives her the right?

"Li Qian seems to have some connection with Peng Ling..."

"Could it be that Peng Ling betrayed the guild and secretly colluded with Li Qian in the dungeon?"

"So everyone else died, and she survived!"

Shen Lixue felt that this must be the truth of the matter.

She has decided that she must propose to the vice president later that Peng Ling be thoroughly investigated!

As she was thinking about these things, she suddenly overheard her friends talking.

"The vice president must be very angry, which is why he called us all online."

"I think his thirst for power is returning; I wonder how long he'll be giving that lecture later."

"There's nothing he can do. After all, Fang Chao was killed, and the forums are criticizing the guild. How could he not be angry?"

"Fang Chao deserved to die. He actually dared to kill a member of his own guild."

"That's right. Although I don't like Peng Ling, he can't kill her, especially since he set a blood trap on her beforehand..."

Shen Lixue's body trembled.

"What did you say?" she asked in astonishment. "Peng Ling is dead?"

"Didn't you watch the live stream? Peng Ling was killed by Fang Chao's blood trap. She died a terrible death, and her body was even sewn back onto her body by the boss." A girl sighed.

She didn't feel too much regret, since she didn't like Peng Ling in the first place.

But since the person is dead, we still have to put on a show.

How Peng Ling died is still being discussed endlessly on the forum.

But the members of the Thunder Guild knew it all too well.

Shen Lixue's face paled even more: "How is this possible..."

If Peng Ling is already dead, then who was the person she encountered in the corridor earlier?

She hurriedly opened the game panel, clicked on the guild member list, and searched through it.

Soon, she found Peng Ling's name.

The status following the name indicates whether the person is alive or online.

She's still alive!

Someone else must have made a mistake, Shen Lixue felt relieved.

The next moment, Peng Ling's name flashed and the chat interface popped up.

Peng Ling: My dear child, Grandma has seen you.

Shen Lixue's body suddenly stiffened, and she could no longer move.

Her eyes trembled violently, revealing a range of emotions including fear, pain, and struggle, before turning into a numb silence.

From the moment she guessed the presence of mud in the corridor, the Mud Granny began to invade her body...

Drip, drip, muddy water began to drip down her body.

It spread silently to the people around them.

A few minutes later, a member of the guild came to the living room.

"President Luo asked me to inform you to come to the conference room for a meeting!" he said to the players in the living room.

More than a dozen players stood up at the same time and walked towards the conference room one by one.

Their movements were stiff, their expressions numb, and they seemed lifeless.

Where they walked, puddles of mud and water remained on the ground.

Inside the main conference room of the Thunder Guild.

Apart from those who were unable to attend due to other commitments, more than half of the guild members, nearly seventy in total, gathered together.

Vice President Luo Haiwei sat in the main seat of the conference room.

There were several captain-level players around him.

The team leader, Sun Feng, is a war god who possesses the legendary class "Guan Jiang Shou" and is second only to the guild leader in strength.

The captain of Team Four, "Lawyer" Zhou Rongrong.

The captain of Team Six, "Soldier Man" Liu Haonan.

Wang Xi, the captain of Team Seven, is known as the "Coffin Carrier".

"I think everyone knows what happened tonight."

"The guild is going through a very difficult time, and everyone must work together."

"There are a few key points I want to discuss with you..."

Luo Haiwei began his long-winded speech, spittle flying everywhere.

Most of the guild members were drowsy but had to force themselves to stay awake.

In the real world, Luo Haiwei was a public official.

He hadn't achieved anything significant until he entered the bizarre world, where he unexpectedly made a name for himself and became the vice president of the Thunder Guild.

Therefore, he loved to show off his official authority in front of the guild members.

"Bang, bang!" Luo Haiwei slammed his hand on the table, his expression cold and stern.

"Did you all understand what I said?"

"This concerns the guild's future..."

He paused abruptly, frowned, and reached out to touch his balding head.

My fingers were wet and a little sticky.

He looked up in surprise and saw a bright ceiling that was already damp in one spot.

"Leaking? How is that possible..."

Luo Haiwei was startled and realized something was wrong, so he immediately jumped back.

Something's fishy!

Strange things have happened in his personal space, the headquarters of the Thunder Guild!

Inside the conference room, the other members also became alert and left their seats.

However, some members, including Shen Lixue, remained seated in their original positions.

Drip, drip, muddy water quickly gushed out of their bodies, dripping onto the ground and beginning to flow.

Their bodies were quickly covered in mud and water, turning them into mud figures.

"Grandma Mud... how did it get here?"

Luo Haiwei was shocked and immediately ran out of the meeting room.

But when I opened the door, I saw someone standing outside.

Peng Ling.

Its face was filled with anger and resentment, and it asked in an icy voice, "Why did you do that to me?"

"Peng Ling...you..." Luo Haiwei's expression trembled.

Peng Ling stepped into the conference room, her body covered in mud and water, melting away.

Like a dam bursting, brownish-yellow mud surged into the conference room like a giant wave.
