Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

"Oh, my name is Fan Chen, and in the real world I am a death row inmate."

Upon hearing An Ran's self-introduction, Fan Chen, out of politeness, also introduced himself.

An Ran was clearly taken aback.

But he quickly burst out laughing.

"If I can leave here and return to reality, I will go to the prison where you are serving your sentence to thank you in person."

She continued, "Psychologists are in high demand among gamers, whether they are playing as gamers or working in real-world professions, because they can stabilize a player's mental state."

"The Special Administration Bureau also took special care of me and gave me some special privileges."

"I can apply for prison visitation and provide you with psychological counseling."

She took another step closer to Fan Chen, her voice gradually softening.

The sound was like a gentle lullaby, making people unconsciously let their guard down.

"I am now opening my heart to you," she continued.

Her body was almost completely pressed against Fan Chen's.

A pair of beautiful eyes stared intently into Fan Chen's eyes.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on her face.

The gentle tone suddenly changed, carrying a hint of command.

"From this moment on, you shall obey my commands!"

As she spoke, her eyes seemed to transform into a vast lake, engulfing Fan Chen.

The core skill of a psychologist: Hypnosis!

She's hypnotizing Fan Chen!

From the very beginning, she never intended to open her heart to Fan Chen or allow others to control her.

Rather than relying on others, she prefers to depend on herself and take the initiative.

The previous words were merely a means to gradually dismantle Fan Chen's defenses, create conditions for hypnosis, and ultimately completely control Fan Chen.

Of course, she wouldn't hurt Fan Chen; she only hoped to escape the strange world safely.

Then the mind control over Fan Chen will be lifted.

In the void of the white spiritual world, the figure representing Fan Chen's will had become vacant.

"I'm sorry, I lied to you," An Ran said to Fan Chen.

"It's okay, you didn't succeed anyway," Fan Chen's voice rang out.

The confusion in his eyes vanished instantly.

"I didn't really trust you in the first place."

The moment An Ran initiated hypnosis, Fan Chen's Soul Eater ability was passively activated.

[Warning: You are being affected by a nightmare!]

Spirit +6

Spirit +5

Maximum Spirit +1

...]

Anran's calm and aloof expression suddenly changed.

Realizing something was wrong, she quickly backed away, trying to distance herself from Fan Chen.

But Fan Chen had already reached out and grabbed An Ran's slender neck.

Fan Chen had no concept of chivalry or pity when it came to those who tried to harm him.

The moment his hand touched An Ran, countless images suddenly flooded Fan Chen's mind:

A little girl whose father died when she was young and who was raised by her mother with great difficulty.

A beautiful girl who buries herself in her studies, excels in every aspect, receives confessions from boys, and is envied by girls.

A cool and aloof female doctor who graduated with excellent grades, became a renowned psychologist, and established her own psychological clinic.

After encountering several players from bizarre worlds, the player became interested in the game and then entered into it.

Encountering terrifying bandaged ghosts in dungeons, possessed by these spirits, these game world undead struggle to survive.

……

This is the spiritual world. Through physical contact, Fan Chen glimpsed An Ran's mind and saw scenes from her past memories.

But in the tranquil world of her mind, a cold voice echoed: "From this moment on, you must obey my commands!"

These were her hypnotic commands, but now they are affecting her.

Because she couldn't influence Fan Chen, her hypnosis backfired!

"not good!"

An Ran was shaken to her core. Under the backlash of this hypnotic influence on the mind, she would soon be affected and unable to disobey Fan Chen's orders.

They will truly be controlled by Fan Chen!

"Ah!" she cried out inwardly, urging her remaining strength to forcibly sever her mental connection with Fan Chen.

Her figure disappeared in the mental space.

However, her consciousness had just returned to the bandaged female ghost's mental world.

Suddenly, I felt a bone-chilling cold.

Filthy bandages spread from all directions, wrapping around her consciousness.

This is the malevolent intent of the bandaged female ghost!

The spirit of the hanged ghost, which had been suppressed due to the severe injury inflicted by the hanged ghost, became active again.

But having already expended a great deal of energy, she could no longer resist it!

safely:"……"

She now faces two choices: be assimilated by the bandaged female ghost's malevolent intent and become a part of it.

Alternatively, one could return to the mental space where they communicate with Fan Chen and accept his control.

This wasn't a difficult choice for her.

Only by living can everything have meaning.

An Ran struggled to break free from the female ghost and reappeared in front of Fan Chen.

In the mental space, Fan Chen was feeling regretful because of An Ran's departure when he saw her figure reappear.

This beautiful woman, who exudes a mature and sophisticated aura, has become panicked.

Behind her, the void of white was quickly stained with a filthy crimson.

Bandages spread out from the blood-red stains.

The malevolent intent of the bandaged female ghost invaded this mental space.

"Save me! I'm willing to give you everything!"

An Ran pleaded anxiously.

The hypnotic commands that had backfired on her earlier were still affecting her, and she was still struggling to resist them.

But with this plea, the last resistance crumbled.

The hypnotic commands were completely imprinted on her mind and soul.

Fan Chen frowned slightly, realizing that a strange spiritual connection had been established between himself and An Ran.

After a slight hesitation, he quickly pulled An Ran behind him and reached for the spreading bandages.

[Warning: You have been attacked by a curse!]

Spirit +13

Maximum Spirit +1

Health +3

Psychic +7

...]

The bandage touched Fan Chen and recoiled as if it had been electrocuted.

Realizing something was wrong, the bandaged female ghost, filled with malevolent intent, immediately tried to escape.

Fan Chen: Do you think I'd let you get away?

He grabbed the bandage and pulled it up forcefully.

Come here!

……

Inside the dark tunnel, the battle of the mind did not affect the physical body outside.

Fan Chen remained standing in front of the bandaged female ghost, holding the bandage in one hand.

I've been holding this position for almost five minutes now.

The viewers in the live stream became worried again: Could Fan Chen be controlled by the bandaged female ghost?

He seems to be dying again...

Just as the comments section was getting agitated, Fan Chen moved and recovered.

The bandaged female ghost, who had been weak and collapsed on the ground, also stood up in a swaying, twisted posture.

"What tricks are you playing on me?"

Fan Chen chuckled and whispered, staring at the bandaged female ghost, and pointed to the side.

With a whoosh, the bandages on the bandaged female ghost instantly spread out like tentacles in that direction.

Fan Chen withdrew his hand, and the tentacle ghost also withdrew her bandages.

"What's going on? Fan Chen has controlled this female ghost?"

"How did he do that?"

"I don't recall him having any profession that allows him to control ghosts, right?"

"My brother Chen is awesome!"

The live stream chat exploded with excitement.

In reality, Fan Chen did not control the bandaged female ghost.

He only controlled An Ran, while An Ran took control of the bandaged female ghost's body.

Just now, the bandaged female ghost's malevolent intent attempted to invade the mental space, but it was destroyed by Fan Chen's Soul Eater.

The female ghost's malevolent intent dissipated, and her physical body should have dissipated as well.

Ke Anran promptly took over the body.

Now, the bandaged female ghost is essentially safe and sound.

Fan Chen is able to control the bandaged female ghost's actions by connecting with An Ran through a spiritual bond.

"Are you alright now?" Fan Chen asked An Ran in his mind.

"No problem. Without the influence of the bandaged ghost's malevolent intent, I can now control this body better," An Ran replied.

She paused, then called out hesitantly, "Master."

Fan Chen: "Uh..."

The hypnosis that caused the previous backlash was actually not very effective.

However, due to the malevolent thoughts of the bandaged female ghost, the fear of life and death made the hypnosis even more deeply imprinted on her mind.

The hypnosis was quite thorough...

"It feels strange not to call me master," Fan Chen thought to himself. "From now on, just call me... um, boss."

"Okay," An Ran replied obediently.

"I will take you away from this strange world," Fan Chen promised.

An Ran had tried to hypnotize him, but it backfired, and she ended up hypnotizing herself instead.

The establishment of that spiritual connection made Fan Chen certain that he had completely controlled her.

Since that's the case, Fan Chen no longer cared about her deception.

Her abilities are also very useful.

Fan Chen shone his flashlight and looked around.

"I've been sitting still for ages, and the hanged ghost hasn't appeared yet?"

"Tsk tsk, they don't even know how to seize such a good opportunity."

"Is it scared?"

He said with some regret, and with Anran in tow, continued forward into the dark tunnel.

The bandaged female ghost followed Fan Chen in an odd posture.

It had been attacked by the hanged ghost, but the wounds it suffered healed quickly, and it disappeared from sight again, only visible out of the corner of its eye.

Fan Chen can determine its location at any time.

At this moment, Fan Chen began to consider completing the hidden mission.

Fan Chen needs to find inner peace in the confession of the half-platform stationmaster.

"Talking doesn't seem to be working..."

"Should we beat it up and make it realize its mistake?"

"But I'm worried that if I cut it down, I'll kill it."

Although the hanged ghosts are troublesome, as long as the player is also hung up, they can face their true forms.

Attacking it would be easy, and even easier for Fan Chen.

Suddenly, Fan Chen had a thought: Helping the stationmaster find inner peace seems like the job of a psychologist.

So Fan Chen consulted his private psychologist about this issue.
