A Psychiatrist's Bizarre Game Journey / Dream of the Mist

809. The Strange Castle (Part 1)

After letting her mind wander, Zhou Ke'er pushed open the bedroom door and saw Zhijiansha and Honghe preparing to leave the living room.

Zhijiansha looked at Zhou Ke'er as she pushed open the door, slightly surprised: "Why did you come out? We thought you were playing a game."

"We were just playing around." Zhou Ke'er scratched her head. "We just finished a bit and were about to come out and rest. What's up? Is something the matter?"

Finger Sand shook his head: "Oh, actually it's nothing important. We're just killing time right now, so we're planning to download a new module and see if we can get any useful items or something."

At this point, Zhijiansha hesitated for a moment before adding, "We thought you were already playing, so we didn't call you—now that you've finished, do you want to join us?"

Zhou Ke'er blinked: "I just logged off..."

Upon hearing this, Zhijiansha immediately fell silent, as if she had never intended to invite Zhou Ke'er in the first place. She simply shrugged and said, "Well then, you get some rest, we'll go ahead..."

But before she could finish speaking, the flamingo beside her tilted its head and said in a flat tone, "Going online isn't a hassle."

“From a generally rational point of view, it’s indeed not troublesome…” Zhou Ke’er stroked her chin, without refuting.

Flamingo continued expressionlessly, "Then let's go together?"

Zhou Ke'er slightly raised her hands, making a non-standard French salute: "Alright, alright, let's do it together then."

Awkwardly, Sand between her fingers picked at the floor with her toes, feeling utterly superfluous.

Soon, all three returned to their respective rooms and logged on. Zhou Ke'er used her wristwatch to teleport back to the safe house.

Surprisingly, besides Flamingo and Finger Sand, Cold-Cooked Rabbit was also here. Sure enough, this lazy, good-for-nothing gamer is truly addicted to games every day.

After hearing that Zhou Ke'er and the other two were planning to play the module together, this girl also started clamoring to join them, even though she knew that everyone would take her along. She was still making a fuss like a little kid.

From a certain perspective, it is indeed a very "cold-cooked rabbit" style of operation...

As usual, it's the same opening CG.

In the gloomy, gray sky, heavy snow fell, making it almost impossible to see anything ahead.

Looking down from the sky, there is a winding snow-capped mountain range, but it does not appear pure; instead, it is shrouded in a gray and gloomy color.

The camera zoomed in rapidly, revealing the ruins of tents covered and submerged by heavy snow. Several people emerged one after another from the shallow snow. It seemed that these people had originally been camped here, but unfortunately encountered a small avalanche, which crushed the tents. Fortunately, at least none of them appeared to be injured.

Unfortunately, not only was the tent crushed, but some of the belongings we carried were also swept away or buried somewhere by the avalanche and could not be found.

The group of eight were dressed in only very thin clothes, and it was obviously impossible for them to hike down the mountain smoothly in such freezing weather.

The problem was that they had no other choice but to huddle together, warming themselves with each other's body heat, and slowly and unsteadily make their way down the mountain.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, everyone seemed to be becoming somewhat delirious. Unexpectedly, a tall, ancient castle appeared before them!

Although such a sudden appearance would raise suspicions in any normal person, the crowd clearly had no time to think about anything else. They rushed towards the castle like hungry wolves that had discovered raw meat, their eyes gleaming with greed.

The seemingly heavy gate was easily pushed open by the crowd, who poured into the castle without hesitation.

After doing all this, everyone could no longer hold on. Overwhelmed by cold, hunger, and exhaustion, they all collapsed to the ground.

Main Quest: Survive

Rewards: Random skill of excellent quality or above, random item or equipment of excellent quality.

Side Quests: None

[Bonus Task: None]

[Note: Want more missions? Greedy for rewards, huh? Survive first!]

As the system notification faded, all the players slowly woke up.

Zhou Ke'er opened her eyes, stood up slowly, and subconsciously glanced around.

But what she noticed first was not the surrounding situation, but the situation of her own body—there wasn't even the slightest trace of evil. This meant that this was not Zhou Ke'er's original body. Secondly, either there were restrictions on evil or other "abilities" themselves, or this module had tampered with the "soul." Otherwise, the evil rooted in Zhou Ke'er's soul could not have been completely eliminated.

Of the eight players present, besides Zhou Ke'er and her group of four, there were three men and one woman, a very balanced ratio.

Flamingo swayed as he stood up, looked around, and slowly said in a monotone tone, "What a classic locked-in mystery scenario. Could it be that one of us is tasked with killing the others?"

"We can't rule out that possibility. Who knows?"

Zhou Ke'er shrugged indifferently, turned to look at Hong He, and replied with a grin, "Eh? Could it be... you're not doubting me? Am I the kind of person who would betray my teammates? If you actually think I'm that kind of person, I'll be very sad."

She subtly shifted the sand between her fingers a small distance, revealing a look of utter despair—why did she have to play the module with these two guys? Seriously, she's an outsider! She feels completely out of place!

Cold-cooked Rabbit, as usual, completely disregarded the atmosphere and went over, breathing on her hands to warm them as she said, "Wow, it's super cold here. The lights are on, but there's no warmth at all."

Just then, a thin male player with a mustache, who looked like one of those street hustlers who scams people for food and drink, coughed and said, "Everyone, I believe you all saw the notes at the end of the quest prompt. This module is obviously very difficult and will require everyone's cooperation to complete. My nickname is 'Xihai Zai Ruomu,' you can just call me Ruomu. I hope we can cooperate well... Next, please introduce this friend..."

The Taoist priest, who called himself "Ruomu," turned to look at another tall and muscular male player. He was only halfway through his sentence when the man said, "Don't touch me."

The Taoist priest's expression froze for half a second, but he quickly switched to a fawning look, trying to smooth things over with his glib tongue: "Haha, my friend, I haven't even touched you yet, so I won't soil your noble body."

But then the male player rolled his eyes and said, "What I mean is, my nickname is 'Don't Touch Me,' not that I'm telling you not to touch me. Of course, even so, don't think you can just come near me anytime you want."

Zhou Ke'er couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Are you spouting a tongue twister?"

This time, Tang San's grasp of time, position, and distance became extremely precise.

He knew very well that even with his mastery of Tang Sect's unique skills and his third-tier Xuan Tian Gong cultivation, the wolf demons were exceptionally gifted and physically powerful. In a head-on confrontation, he might not be a match for them. Especially since he was young and lacked vital energy, he certainly couldn't fight for long. If it weren't for that human who had transformed and killed one wolf demon, he might not have even bothered to fight two third-tier wolf demons; his own life was the most important thing.

However, once he makes a move, it must hit its target.

The wolf demon was in a state of extreme rage, so he didn't realize what was happening until Tang San's palm had already struck the side of his eye. He suddenly turned his head, his wolf mouth lunging straight at Tang San.

Tang San grabbed the wolf's clothes with his other hand at that moment, and taking advantage of his slender build, pulled on the wolf's fur to change direction. He flipped over almost touching the third-tier wolf demon's chest and ended up on the other side of the wolf demon.

With his right index and middle fingers joined together to form a sword-like gesture, Xuan Yu Hand activated, causing the two fingers to shimmer with a pure white jade color, and pierced towards the wolf demon's eyes as it turned its head. 818

"Pfft!" The slender fingers were instantly warmed. In terms of physical strength, Tang San was definitely far inferior to this third-tier wolf demon, but when he was hit in a vital spot, there was no room for luck when the energy levels were the same.

With the Xuan Yu Hand channeling the Xuan Tian Gong, it was almost swirling as it was thrown into the wolf demon's brain. The wolf demon's other eye exploded instantly, its brain pulverized into a mess. Its roar abruptly ceased as if its throat had been choked, and its powerful body plummeted to the ground.

Tang San kicked off him with his toes, flipped over, and landed far away.

The success of this attack was thanks to his rich combat experience from his previous life. The child's small body and the darkness provided the best cover, and the third-tier wolf demon was in a rage, its senses weakened.

In a direct confrontation, even Tang San's Xuan Yu Hand might not be able to pierce the wolf demon's thick hide. However, the eyes are the most vulnerable spot; if the eyes are pierced and filled with Xuan Tian Gong energy, it's certain death.

With his feet firmly on the ground, Tang San noticed that the third-tier wolf demon on the other side had also fallen silent. He breathed a sigh of relief. Instead of immediately checking on the human, he quickly lay down, pressing his ears to the ground to listen for any remaining pursuers.

With his current strength, it would be difficult for him to fight a third-tier wolf demon head-on. No matter how good his skills were, his young body was too weak. If he were hit by the wolf demon even once, it could very well be fatal. That seemingly simple attack just now was actually his all-out effort, raising his mental will to the highest level.

There was no other movement around, clearly indicating that only two third-tier wolf demons were chasing the one capable of transforming into a human. This relieved Tang San; otherwise, he would have had no choice but to flee.

He then approached the human, remaining vigilant at the same time.

When he approached the man, he immediately noticed that the hair that had previously grown on the man's body had disappeared. This made Tang San's heart beat even faster.

Given his childhood circumstances and the fact that he had no relation to the transformed human, the safest course of action would have been to refrain from intervening and wait for the wolf demon to leave. However, he still chose to act. One reason was that the one being hunted was human. Another important reason was his recent transformation.

In Tang San's original Douluo Continent world, there exists a type of Soul Master who possesses Beast Martial Souls and can have similar abilities. They can also continuously grow stronger by cultivating their Beast Martial Souls.

If similar abilities existed in this world, learning them would greatly benefit his own strength and make it easier for him to integrate into this world!

810. The Strange Castle (Part Two)

"Hey everyone, look—wait, is it just me who can see it, or can everyone see it?"

Just then, the unfamiliar female player suddenly spoke up, pointing to the top of her head: "I see a countdown above your heads, it just appeared, did you see it?"

Everyone nodded in agreement. With such a large string of numbers appearing above someone's head, it would be a sign of poor eyesight not to notice. Given the game's coin-minting practices, it might be a hint for some kind of challenge mission. That's why no one had brought it up. Fortunately, one of the more impulsive individuals spoke up first, and since that was the case, there was no point in hiding it any longer.

A Taoist priest named Ruomu stroked his mustache and approached with a smile: "Of course I can see it! Oh my, this beautiful lady has such sharp eyes and keen observation skills. If you hadn't pointed it out, I really wouldn't have noticed. Thank you so much—may I ask your name?"

"Really? Haha, it's nothing really!" The woman looked embarrassed, and to put it nicely, she was innocent and naive, but to put it bluntly, she was a bit silly. She scratched her head and said, "My nickname is Mu Mu, you can just call me that."

At this moment, Zhang Si (17bxW) saw this and couldn't help but move closer to Zhou Ke'er, whispering, "Hey, I feel like my persona has been stolen? Isn't that a bit unfair?"

Zhou Ke'er lowered her eyes and looked at the cold-cooked rabbit: "You have a distorted view of yourself - when we first met, the way you acted was somewhat similar to this, but now... just be a good troll and mascot, okay?"

"What! So I'm the team mascot?!" Cold Rabbit exclaimed in shock. "I never imagined my status was so high?"

Zhou Ke'er nodded seriously: "From a certain perspective, that's true."

Zhijiansha watched with unease as Lengchitu and Zhou Ke'er whispered intimately to each other. Although she didn't think the two of them would get together—it was more like they were in cahoots, let alone having an affair—she still glanced nervously at Honghe. Even though Honghe still looked expressionless, Zhijiansha felt the temperature around her drop significantly, making her shiver.

"Hey, are you guys... just going to keep talking about these trivial things like this?"

Finally, the male player who hadn't spoken until now, and hadn't even introduced himself, spoke up. He crossed one arm over his chest and pressed his fingers against the wall with the other. "It seems you guys have absolutely no idea what's going on. Has no one noticed... that the temperature here is getting lower and lower? Phew... sure enough, there are even faint frost marks on the walls."

Ah—so it really is just that the temperature has dropped, not because of the flamingos… Sha breathed a sigh of relief—Yeah, right!

"Qiangxi" is pronounced as "xi". "Oh! I knew it! It really is!"

Upon hearing this, Ruomu also leaned closer to the wall for a look, and then clicked her tongue in amazement: "Everyone's observation skills are really good! It seems that as long as everyone helps each other, we'll be able to pass the level very easily this time! May I ask what this handsome guy's name is?"

The man frowned slightly, but still answered, "Zhong Ming."

"Oh, what a nice name! Do you have a younger brother named Ding Shi?" Ruomu joked, but Zhong Ming ignored him, and no one else responded either, creating an awkward moment. However, Ruomu seemed completely oblivious, continuing with his smile, "Haha, just kidding. Uh, so next up are these four... It seems you all know each other, right?"

Putting aside Ruomu, who was asking around trying to build good relationships within the team, Zhong Ming and Mo Ai Laozi had already started searching the hall. They were just worried that acting alone would lead to a quick death, so they didn't leave the others behind.

Given her personality, Zhijiansha should have started searching quickly, but seeing that Honghe and Zhou Ke'er didn't make any moves, she didn't do anything either.
