Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

After a moment of dizziness, Fan Chen found himself inside a dilapidated building.

Visibility was dim, and shadowy figures moved around me.

"Boss." An Ran's voice echoed in her mind.

Fan Chen turned his head and saw An Ran wearing a doctor's white coat.

She seemed to habitually wear this outfit when entering the instance.

Fan Chen nodded to her, and soon saw Zhou Muchen's figure again.

Zhou Muchen walked over quickly, his face still taking in his surroundings.

"In this instance, players will appear together."

"The player's identity is that of a daredevil who ventures into a mental hospital to risk death..."

Fan Chen made a quick judgment.

He recognized that this was a lobby with a reception desk and seats for resting, all of which were quite dilapidated.

The ground was covered in dust, and the air was filled with a rotten smell, clearly indicating that it had been abandoned for a long time.

There were no lights, only moonlight filtering in through the window, creating a blurry view.

One of the biggest challenges players face in this instance is the darkness.

There are ten players in total who have entered this instance.

After the initial panic, everyone took out their lighting tools.

It's already a D-level difficulty dungeon, and players who enter are well-equipped with items to deal with various situations.

Fan Chen also took out the "Illusion-Dispelling Oil Lamp" that he had obtained from the last dungeon.

It emitted a light that enveloped him and his two companions.

A tall, muscular male player, wearing shorts that revealed his well-developed thigh muscles, took out a flashlight.

This person appears to work as a security guard; a flashlight is standard equipment for security guards.

A female gamer dressed in urban attire took out a mobile phone and turned on its flashlight function.

Four players, two men and two women, gathered together immediately.

One of the male players, who had dyed blond hair, took out a red lantern, which emitted a somewhat eerie red light.

Upon seeing these four players, Fan Chen easily recognized their identities.

"These must be the members of the Rascal Guild's raiding team, right?"

They are so easy to spot.

Aside from the blond guy, the two female players had flashy hair and wore earrings and lip piercings, looking every bit the energetic young women.

There was also a bald male player with a fierce look on his face, wearing a gold chain and looking like a big shot.

And on each of them, large tattoos could be seen under their clothes.

When Fan Chen looked at them, the bald man also looked over.

Chong Fanchen grinned, revealing his gold teeth, a veiled threat in his eyes.

Fan Chen smiled as well; he was always very polite.

But if you dare to cause trouble later, I wish you a good death.

Then, Fan Chen looked at the last player.

This is a somewhat eccentric male player, standing in a corner without using any lighting tools, his body almost completely immersed in darkness.

He was wearing sunglasses and tilting his head to look like he was listening attentively.

The three players—the tall guy, the urban beauty, and the man in sunglasses—were clearly lone wolves, and they were wary of the others.

"There is no immediate danger around." Fan Chen used his vigilance to sense his surroundings and found no hostile targets.

He quickly took out the Fengdu Daily.

Anran took the oil lamp from his hand.

With the talent of "absolute rationality", her mental attributes are stable enough that she consumes very little energy when using strange items.

The blood-stained newspaper was opened, and lines of text quickly appeared on it.

[The Ebony Mental Hospital is divided into the Inner World and the Outer World.]

The fourth floor houses severely mentally ill patients and is the most dangerous place in the mental hospital.

When the red moon descends, the corridor on the fourth floor will connect the inner and outer worlds.

When the dark sonata begins, the red moon will descend.

Beware of being spied on from the shadows.

Doctors at Ebony Mental Hospital are working to prevent patients from escaping.

A terrifying secret lies hidden within the missing paranormal investigator.

Finding the dean will trigger the psychiatrist career trial quest.

With the reverse amplification brought about by the curse, Fan Chen quickly finished reading several messages.

He told An Ran and Zhou Muchen about these messages, explaining that only players holding the newspaper could see them.

At the same time, Fan Chen was also thinking quickly.

"A mental hospital is like a two-world system, like Silent Hill?"

"I wonder if there are any sexy female nurses..."

"When the red moon descends, the corridor on the fourth floor connects the two worlds, but the fourth floor is the most dangerous place."

"When the Dark Sonata plays, the red moon will descend. It seems that the timing of the red moon in this instance is still irregular."

And there was another piece of information that surprised Fan Chen the most:

As expected, you can obtain the psychiatrist profession in this dungeon!

The other players' expressions changed when they saw the newspaper in Fan Chen's hand.

Many players now know that this is an exclusive item, which may reveal some information and rules about the dungeon.

This filled them with envy, and they tried hard to hear what Fan Chen was saying.

But they heard nothing.

The light from the Breaking Illusion Oil Lamp forms a protective layer and also has a certain sound insulation function.

"Hmph!" The bald man snorted coldly, and a burning incense stick suddenly appeared in his hand.

He held the incense in both hands, faced the dark corridor at the back of the hall, and knelt down with a thud.

The two young women and the blond-haired young man also hurriedly knelt down.

"..." The other players looked at them in surprise.

"This is worshipping ghosts..." Fan Chen thought of the information he had seen on the forum.

This is a skill of a rogue profession.

By worshipping ghosts, one can communicate with powerful spirits within the instance and receive certain hints or even protection.

"Trying to please the ghosts in the dungeon, huh?" Fan Chen said with some disdain.

Zhou Muchen wasn't interested in worshipping ghosts. After listening to Fan Chen repeat the information, he continued to look around.

"I wonder if Qing Tong has come here." He muttered to himself.

"Boss, what do we do next?" An Ran asked.

Fan Chen looked around: "Let's try exploring this place first..."

Before he could finish speaking, a female player suddenly screamed "Damn!"

She's a spirited young woman in the Madstorm Guild who's currently worshipping ghosts.

She jumped up from the ground in a hurry.

"Feifei, what's wrong?" the bald man with gold teeth asked warily.

"A bug! A bug just crawled onto my leg," said the spirited young woman named Feifei.

"Where are the bugs?" another energetic young woman said irritably.

"It's true, I don't know where they went!" Feifei said, unconvinced.

"Alright, be careful later!" the bald man said impatiently.

He got up from the ground and put away the incense stick.

He looked somewhat disappointed, clearly not having received the instructions he expected.

"Insects?" Fan Chen frowned as he looked at the dusty lobby floor.

At this moment, the tall man wearing shorts walked to the glass door on one side of the lobby, glanced outside a few times, and said:

"You can see the main gate from here!"

They are currently inside a building, which is apparently the main building of a mental hospital.

Outside was a courtyard, which appeared desolate under the cold moonlight, with withered grass and trees.

A wisp of mist drifted around.

Through the mist, an iron gate could be vaguely seen.

"Our mission is to escape from the mental hospital."

The tall man said excitedly, "I want to go take a look. Maybe if I go through that iron gate, I can leave this place!"

He held the flashlight and looked at the other players, as if hoping someone would join him.

But no one responded to him. How could he possibly leave a D-level difficulty dungeon so easily?

The tall man hesitated, wanting to go and explore, but not wanting to be separated from the others.

Fan Chen stepped forward: "We'd like to go take a look too."

Now that we've entered this instance, we should try to explore every corner of it, hoping to trigger some hidden clues.

The tall man's expression brightened, and he carefully pushed open the glass door.

After he walked out, Fan Chen, An Ran, and Zhou Muchen followed him out.

A sophisticated urban woman and a man in sunglasses followed closely behind.

The four members of the Madstorm Guild whispered a few words to each other and then followed.

The courtyard outside was gloomy, with swirling mist carrying a chill.

The tall man, wearing only shorts, hugged his arms, feeling a bit cold.

"Fan Chen, I've watched your live stream, you're amazing."

He suddenly turned to look at Fan Chen: "My name is He Yichao. It's an honor to enter the same instance as you."

"Hmm." Fan Chen's reaction was indifferent.

Seeing this, He Yichao stopped talking.

After walking a short distance from the lobby, Fan Chen looked back at the building behind him.

The building has an old exterior and four floors. Through the windows, the interior is silent and dark.

The players trudged along the path overgrown with withered weeds, making a series of sounds that stood out against the silence.

The courtyard is simply furnished and easy to understand, with nothing particularly noteworthy.

The Eye of the Spirit Detector also failed to discover any clues.

As Fan Chen got closer to the iron gate, he saw that the fog was even thicker, making it impossible to see the outside world.

The iron gate was closed, but it didn't seem to be locked.

"Seems safe?" the tall He Yichao said, walking toward the iron gate.

He possesses the alertness skills of a security guard and can sense hostility.

Just as he reached the iron gate, he seemed to notice something and turned to look at the tree on one side of the gate.

His body suddenly stiffened, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

Other players who approached quickly noticed the anomaly as well.

It was a crooked tree, and a person was hanging from its crooked trunk.

Because of the angle, it can only be seen when you arrive at the gate.

"A hanging ghost?" Fan Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he turned on the oil lamp to shine the light over.

It was indeed a hanged corpse, with its back to us.

Just as Fan Chen looked over, it seemed as if a breeze was blowing, and the corpse slowly swayed, its face turning around.

It revealed a pained, ashen face.

Fan Chen quickly realized that the pained face was his own...
