Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

The girl, tied to the wooden stake, showed a change in expression.

"What are you talking about?"

"I am Lin Xiaoyu, an innocent victim sacrificed by an evil god... How could I possibly be an evil god?"

It hurriedly said to Fan Chen.

"Really? I don't believe it." Fan Chen shook his head.

"What if you really are an evil god? Wouldn't it be asking for trouble if I summoned you?"

"It's better to be cautious. I've already got the job, so I'm leaving."

He waved to the girl and turned to leave.

He looks like he's preparing to work as a freeloader.

"Do you think you can still leave?"

The girl on the wooden stake suddenly lost her weakness in her voice and became cold.

When Fan Chen looked at it again, its forehead skin was torn open, and amidst the blood, a strange eye opened.

"You have gained my power and become my high priest."

"Now, you are my follower!"

It stopped pretending and laid its cards on the table.

The woman Fan Chen interacted with after entering the Red Moon World was the Ghost Eye Evil God!

The High Priest is a legendary profession; as the name suggests, it is a profession that serves the gods.

When players follow the quest guide and complete the High Priest quest, they will be controlled by the Ghost Eye God and become a follower of the Ghost Eye!

This career trial quest is a trap.

In this eerie world, there exist all sorts of ghosts and spirits that bear the names of evil gods.

Players can be influenced by them and become their followers.

Cult members are not a profession, but more like a curse.

Players who become cult members will gain special and bizarre abilities, but the side effect is that their personality will gradually become paranoid and twisted, and they will fanatically worship evil gods.

Such players are always ostracized by everyone!

The viewers in the live stream were all a little surprised when they heard what the girl with the ghost eyes said.

"So Fan Chen triggered the High Priest class trial quest!"

"The High Priest class... the name sounds like a legendary class?"

"This is a trap; it will turn players into cult members!"

"Fan Chen is finished!"

"Brother Chen, no!"

Li Qian, An Ran, Zhou Muchen, and others who cared about Fan Chen all became worried at the same time.

Fan Chen's expression remained calm, and a smile even appeared on his lips.

"Who told you I became the high priest?" he said with a smile.

Fan Chen: Sorry, I'm just a temporary worker, I'm not officially employed by your cult...

He was unfamiliar with the profession of high priest. The information Li Qian provided only introduced the various evil gods in the strange world, without mentioning any related professions.

But you can tell the nature of this profession just from its name.

Fan Chen still completed the task without worrying about any negative consequences.

One reason is that he has a Soul Eater to back him up, and another reason is the nature of his job as a temporary worker.

He will only master the corresponding skills upon completing the career trial, but will not obtain the corresponding career.

"What are you talking about?"

"You are now my high priest, and you must obey my commands!"

The evil god roared in anger, and the eerie eyes on its forehead emitted a blood-red light that enveloped Fan Chen, exerting its influence.

[Warning: You have been cursed by the Ghost Eye!]

Spirit +12

Psychic +15

Spirit +19

...]

On Fan Chen's forehead, an eye totem was faintly visible.

But the totem disappeared as soon as it appeared.

Fan Chen: I'm not your employee, you can shout until you're hoarse and it won't do any good!

He is not a high priest and is not controlled by the evil god with the ghost eye.

The effects released by the Demon Eye were directly absorbed by the Soul Eater.

Fan Chen ignored the evil god and quickly pulled out the three-person group photo from his pocket.

Actually, what Fan Chen said just now was just a bluff.

He couldn't be sure whether the girl in front of him was the demon god in disguise.

Now that the other party is no longer pretending, Fan Chen confirmed it.

"It really was an evil god in disguise..."

"If players attempt to summon the spirit, they might unleash it completely, with potentially disastrous consequences."

Previously, Fan Chen had figured out the "event" behind this instance by using the mummy diary and clues found in several leisure activities.

However, some things remain unclear, such as what exactly was recorded in the last few pages of the Mummified Corpse Diary that disappeared.

The camp's various recreational activities seem to be draining the players' energy, turning it into firewood.

Meanwhile, the campfire lit by firewood was scorching Lin Xiaoyu's statue.

This seems to be using the player's mental power to perform some kind of sealing...

Fan Chen had never been able to figure out the reason behind it.

But when they saw the image of the guide ghost in the photo, they learned that the guide ghost was the dried corpse Zheng Mingyu.

Fan Chen guessed a certain possibility.

Now that he had confirmed that the girl in front of him was an evil god in disguise, Fan Chen had completely figured out the key points:

Due to an accident during the original sacrificial ceremony, the evil god was unable to descend, and some of its power and will remained in Lin Xiaoyu's body.

Along with other cultist spirits, they were bound to the world of the Red Moon.

Lin Xiaoyu's body became a cage.

But what was trapped inside was not Lin Xiaoyu's ghost, but a part of the will of the Ghost Eye Evil God.

So, the evil god bewitched Zheng Mingyu, teaching him the power of psychic abilities, hoping to use psychic abilities to escape his cage.

In his diary, Zheng Mingyu often felt mentally disoriented and forgot many things.

It's because he's constantly being influenced by the evil god with the demonic eye.

He did indeed acquire psychic abilities and began performing psychic rituals according to the evil god's demands.

Just as the spiritual communication was about to be completed, Zheng Mingyu suddenly realized something.

He learned that what was about to be summoned was not his lover Lin Xiaoyu, but the evil god with ghost eyes.

He stopped the psychic session in time.

Yet the power of the evil god still seeped out.

The stone statue in the center of the square should be the manifestation of the evil god's power.

Even if Zheng Mingyu stops communicating with spirits, it may still break free from its cage.

Unbeknownst to him, Zheng Mingyu's body was affected by the evil god Ghost Eye, and he had essentially become a follower of Ghost Eye.

In order to break free from the control of the evil god, he voluntarily ended his own life, leaving behind the dried corpse in the wooden house.

Then he transformed into a guide ghost, using his mastered psychic abilities to summon the wandering spirits of the camp and restore the Red Leaf Camp to operation.

If tourists come here and experience the leisure activities, their mental attributes will be continuously depleted.

Spiritual attributes will be converted into firewood for the campfire.

The campfire is the seal that prevents the evil god from descending.

The cries for help that the player hears are not from the girl being sacrificed, but from an evil god.

It's tempting players to extinguish the campfire.

If the campfire goes out, the evil god with the demonic eye will descend and wipe out all the players.

Fortunately, Fan Chen had already learned of this important rule through the Fengdu Daily and did not make any related attempts.

As for the dried corpse left behind by Zheng Mingyu, it is still under the influence of the evil god with ghost eyes.

Therefore, the spirits of cult members may appear in the Misty Forest as dried corpses.

Players can also trigger the High Priest's class quest through the dried corpse.

This is the conspiracy of the evil god with ghost eyes, guiding players to be controlled by him step by step.

Even the pages in the dried corpse's diary that recorded the truth were clearly destroyed by the evil god.

These thoughts flashed through Fan Chen's mind quickly.

Then, he prepared to put his newly learned skills to use.

Psychic!

He still wants to communicate with spirits, but the target of his communication is the real Lin Xiaoyu!

Although the body before her was controlled by the evil god with ghost eyes, the real Lin Xiaoyu was still inside.

The hidden quest triggered by Fan Chen is to rescue the girl who was sacrificed.

Since the mission was triggered, it proves that Lin Xiaoyu's soul is still in this body.

When Zheng Mingyu was communicating with spirits, he suddenly realized something, which was most likely because he received a reminder from Lin Xiaoyu.

However, spiritual communication requires a medium.

Nothing is a better medium than photographs that hold joyful memories.

The Fengdu Daily reported that Fan Chen obtained this photo from the red-clothed water ghost.

That's because it's a key item for completing hidden missions.

[Spiritual Communication]

Fan Chen held the photo in his hand and displayed his skill.

At this moment, the time limit for the cursed bottle to lock onto the mind is about to end.

The ability to communicate with spirits caused Fan Chen to experience a continuous drain on his mental energy.

This skill consumes a lot of spirit attribute!

The photo slowly floated up in Fan Chen's palm.

The figure of Zheng Xinyi, the water ghost in red, appeared behind Fan Chen.

Guiding Ghost Zheng Mingyu also appeared behind Fan Chen.

After Fan Chen killed the dried-up corpse, all the ghosts in the camp disappeared, and Zheng Mingyu's face appeared in the photo.

This indicates that Zheng Mingyu has possessed the body of this photograph.

They simultaneously reached out to the evil god with the ghost eye.

Using the bonds of love and friendship, he summoned the lingering soul of Lin Xiaoyu within that body.

"Stop! I won't let you get away with this!"

The evil god with the ghostly eyes grew increasingly ferocious, and the ghostly eye on its forehead trembled violently.

This body belongs to Lin Xiaoyu, though it has become a cage that confines it.

However, if Lin Xiaoyu's spirit is sent away by a medium, this body will disintegrate.

At that time, it will also refuse to exist.

So it desperately wanted to influence Fan Chen and stop his psychic abilities.

Fan Chen remained completely unmoved.

But at this moment, on the tiger-slaying knife in Fan Chen's other hand.

The blood-red aura was still boiling, solidifying into Li Hu's ferocious face.

Suddenly, a strange eye appeared on Li Hu's forehead...
