Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

He should be safe for now.

After recovering from the shock, Fan Chen said to An Ran.

"I don't care about that jerk."

An Ran curled her lip in disdain, then asked curiously, "Was he arrested because he merged with the ghost bride?"

"His condition might lead the hospital to diagnose him as mentally ill," Fan Chen said with considerable certainty.

The ghost of the employee who came to arrest Fan Chen kept saying, "He's sick."

Fan Chen had already guessed it at the time.

After He Yichao was arrested, the rule that was triggered mentioned "abnormal state" likely refers to someone whose mental state was not right.

This includes reducing mental attributes to less than half.

The fusion of Zhou Muchen and the female ghost may also be interpreted as "schizophrenia".

One of the reports in the Fengdu Daily was that the staff of the mental hospital were doing their best to prevent the patients from escaping.

This also coincides with this speculation.

"He should be locked up in the other world. We can go find him later."

Fan Chen continued, "Hopefully, he can find a fellow streamer first."

The way to enter the Otherworld is to pass through the corridor on the fourth floor during the Red Moon.

It's been two hours since the instance started, and the red moon hasn't appeared even once...

"Oh, right."

Fan Chen took the family photo out from his waistband behind his back.

An Ran helped Fan Chen hold up the oil lamp so that they could examine the family photo by its light.

Soon, they found Zhou Muchen in the photo.

He changed into a blue and white hospital gown, wearing a bright smile.

He was standing next to a female doctor with short hair.

The female doctor was still secretly watching him, her face full of joy.

It seems that the person who came to arrest Zhou Muchen just now was the female doctor's transformed employee ghost.

"what?"

As Fan Chen scanned the photos, he suddenly noticed something: "She's in the family photo too!"

The young woman, who works as a thief, also appeared in the group photo.

With her brightly colored hair, you could clearly see an eye pattern on her forehead.

"After she stole my brainwashing curse, she was brainwashed into becoming a follower of the Ghost Eye."

"And the fanaticism of cult members was also considered a sign of mental illness by the employees..."

Fan Chen made a judgment.

He was somewhat disappointed that he didn't see the bald man in the family photo.

Why do players hate the brainwashing by evil gods so much? It's because it's highly contagious.

Once one player is affected, the effect will quickly spread to other players.

Unfortunately, the gold-toothed bald man wasn't affected.

They're probably hiding somewhere in the building right now...

"Let's continue exploring this building," he said, putting away the family portrait and taking the oil lamp.

……

As Fan Chen and the other three players began exploring upstairs.

Inside the auditorium on the first floor.

The figure of the gold-toothed bald man suddenly appeared.

The tattoos on his body detached and transformed into hideous monsters, which were grabbing his arm.

"Phew, the abilities of the underworld messengers can't be used continuously..." the bald man with gold teeth sighed as he retracted the tattooed ghost into his body.

Bad luck!

The ghost tattoo on his body depicts a ghost messenger.

It possesses considerable combat capabilities, and most importantly, it has the ability to teleport short distances.

However, ghost tattoos have significant side effects.

The tattoo material comes from other ghosts, and the ghosts themselves are forced into a deep sleep when they are transformed into tattoos.

However, frequent use may awaken the consciousness of ghosts, causing the user to be possessed and controlled by them.

Back in the auditorium, the bald man raised a burning red candle and began searching for something.

Throughout this process, a look of pain would occasionally appear on his rugged and fierce face.

He kept hearing muttering in his ears:

"Master Demon Eye is truly great, Wild Boy, you should believe in him!"

"By believing in the Ghost Eye, you can attain eternal life!"

"Brother Yezi, Lord Ghost Eyes won't treat you unfairly..."

The thief, a young woman with a mental illness, was brainwashed and cursed. Although he managed to distance himself in time, he was still affected to some extent.

"Damn, Fan Chen is under a brainwashing curse..."

"He's really not a cult member? What are those people at the Special Administration doing?!"

"We must break this curse as soon as possible, or I'll be captured too!"

It was just a mild brainwashing curse, and it wouldn't affect him in the short term.

But he witnessed firsthand the process of the thief girl being captured by the employee ghost after becoming a follower of the Ghost Eye.

In order to avoid repeating the same mistake, he only wanted to remove the curse as soon as possible.

He had already come up with a solution: worship ghosts and seek the protection of vengeful spirits!

Offerings are needed to worship ghosts, which is why he returned to the chapel.

The yellow-haired man's body is still here; he can offer it as a sacrifice to the vengeful ghost!

However, after searching with the help of the red candlelight...

All they saw were the bloodstains left by the blond-haired man after his death; the body was nowhere to be found.

In dungeons, a player's corpse usually does not disappear on its own after death.

unless……

"Did Fan Chen and the others dispose of the body?"

"Or...did a ghost take the body away?"

……

Fan Chen and his group went up the stairs to the second floor.

On both sides of the narrow corridor are rooms of about ten square meters each.

The interior is simply furnished, but each room has its own unique character, revealing traces of daily life.

There are more than forty rooms in total, which should all be wards for mental patients.

Fan Chen explored the past one by one, but found nothing unusual.

They then went up the stairs to the third floor.

This time, the strange thing happened as soon as I left the stairs.

Creak, creak, a familiar sound echoed in the dark corridor.

"It's that rocking chair!" the actress said in a trembling voice.

The rocking chair that disappeared from the activity room on the first floor has appeared here!

Fan Chen raised the oil lamp, and in its warm yellow light, he saw the chair that was rocking back and forth.

He had already raised the Demon Eye Tiger-Slaying Blade in his hand and cautiously approached slowly.

As they got closer, they saw that there seemed to be a person lying on the rocking chair.

He had a head of yellow hair that looked like a bird's nest...

"Is it that blond guy from the Madstorm Guild?" Fan Chen asked, slightly surprised.

After Huang Mao was killed by Zhou Muchen, his body was abandoned in the auditorium.

And now he's here, sitting in this rocking chair?

Yellow Hair sat in the rocking chair, eyes closed, swaying back and forth, looking relaxed and enjoying himself.

His skin was grayish-white, and he had a large hole in his forehead.

Suddenly, the alert skill activated, sensing a strong sense of malice erupting ahead.

The blond-haired man sitting in the rocking chair suddenly opened his eyes.

Those were eyes that were completely black.

With a cracking sound, its bones creaked as it wobbled to its feet.

His legs and arms were stretched considerably by a strange force.

His skin, which was originally just grayish-white, quickly turned bluish-black.

Sharp, black nails grew on both hands.

"It's...it's come back to life!" The actress's voice trembled even more.

She was able to play a zombie because she had entered zombie-related instances before and was very familiar with this zombie-like scene.

Could that rocking chair cause a corpse to turn into a zombie?

"It shouldn't be a zombie," Fan Chen shook his head.

It's a sick ghost that possessed the yellow-haired man's corpse!

He was only slightly surprised for a moment before rushing over and slashing the ghost-eyed tiger-slaying blade at the resurrected yellow-haired man.

【Cleaving bones】

But this originally invincible butcher skill, when it struck the resurrected blond-haired man's shoulder, only managed to get stuck a few inches away.

Holy crap, it's so hard?

Whoosh! The yellow-haired zombie with black fingernails slashed down at Fan Chen.

Fan Chen hurriedly withdrew his blood-stained blade and quickly retreated.

"Ugh... Huff..." The yellow-haired zombie grew sharp teeth and made strange noises.

Its arms extended to nearly a meter, and its claws swung out to grab Fan Chen.

Fan Chen nimbly dodged, unable to get any closer to it.

He kept swinging his knife at the claws that were reaching out to grab him, making a clanging sound as they struck.

"So hard, has your body turned into steel?" Fan Chen asked, somewhat surprised.

It seems difficult to directly damage its body...

"The flesh of zombies is already very tough, but this one seems even more unusual," the actress said.

She also turned into a zombie, but dared not fight the resurrected blond-haired man.

The man in sunglasses quickly disappeared into the darkness again.

An Ran had transformed into a bandaged female ghost, waiting for an opportunity to approach, her bandaged tentacles wrapping around the claws of the resurrected yellow-haired man.

Hiss, thick smoke billowed from the area wrapped in bandages—a curse inherent in the bandages themselves.

"Hiss..." The yellow-haired zombie let out a piercing scream, trying to break free of the bandages.

Fan Chen seized the opportunity and suddenly closed in.

The machete in his hand instantly transformed into countless blade shadows.

[Peeling]

Since the body is so tough, let's first peel off the ghost attached to the blond guy.

Swish, swish, swish—countless flashes of blade light swept across the monster's body.

Amidst the heavy flashes of blood-red blades, a gaunt, old man-like ghostly figure was forcibly "scraped" out.

It struggled to climb back into the corpse.

But now that you're out, don't even think about going back!

Swish! Fan Chen followed up with another [Gut Slice], unleashing a burst of blood-red blade light that landed on the ghostly figure.

The ghostly figure immediately disintegrated.

With a thud, the blond-haired man's body collapsed to the ground, quickly returning to its original appearance, only becoming much shriveled.

The rocking chair disappeared without a trace.

[Warning: You have severely injured the Sick Ghost (14, Vengeful Ghost)!]

[Psionic Power +850]

A medical record then floated down.

Room: 402

Symptoms: Cottal Syndrome

Medical history: The patient has developed severe delusions, believing that he is already dead and is just a walking corpse.

He lacked vitality in his daily life and liked to sit in a rocking chair for long periods of time.

He has a particular fondness for corpses, believing them to be his own kind...

"Tucker syndrome?"

An Ran, having regained her composure, leaned closer, glanced at the description on the medical record, and said with a hint of realization, "This kind of mental illness seems to be called..."

"Walking Dead Fantasy," Fan Chen continued, recalling this unique case of mental illness.

That rocking chair belonged to this mental patient suffering from zombie fantasies.

After transforming into a ghost, it gained the bizarre abilities of a walking corpse.

When a player dies, they will be possessed by this diseased spirit and turned into a zombie monster.

Severe voyeurism, tactile fantasies, zombie fantasies...

These patients living on the fourth floor are all extremely rare mental patients.

The vengeful spirits they transform into are all indescribably strange and bizarre.

Besides the three I've already encountered, I wonder if there are any other sick ghosts?

"I've collected enough cases to trigger the psychiatrist's mission." Fan Chen was overjoyed.

Just then, click, he suddenly heard the door open.

From a door next to it.

Fan Chen and An Ran both tensed up and looked over warily.

A sign hangs on the door: Dean's Office.

This is Dean Cai's office.

The door was quickly pulled open, and light shone through.

A face wearing a strange hat was revealed; it was none other than the ghost streamer who had disappeared earlier!

"It's you? Great! Where did you go? Why did you suddenly disappear?"

It happily popped out and said.
