Chapter 5: Not too much, right?
Soon, she locked her eyes on Lin Chen and asked in surprise: "Did you go to the wrong team? No, you are not on the list of new players. Who are you?"
The others immediately moved away as if they were avoiding snakes and scorpions.
We have all heard a lot of ghost stories. If there is suddenly one more person in a team, it must be a ghost no matter how you think about it!
For a moment, some people felt as if they were facing a great enemy, some were so scared that they covered their mouths, and some even wanted to turn around and run away.
Because of this sudden change, this makeshift team suddenly became disorganized.
Lin Chen was about to panic, and immediately said speechlessly : "Miss, what is the training you are talking about? Why haven't I participated in it? Have you counted the number of people before? Why didn't anyone notify me?"
"You didn't attend the training?"
Xu Qian was startled at first, then suddenly realized: "I see, you are the player with invitation number 59!"
Lin Chen nodded and said, "That's right. Could it be that No. 59 is a very special existence, so the organization deliberately didn't train me?"
Xu Qian's face darkened, but she regained her composure in her heart. She ignored Lin Chen and said loudly: "Everyone, follow me to the locker room to change clothes."
Seeing this, Lin Chen did not chase after him to continue asking questions.
Whether it is a horror game or other human players, including three "Guardians" with ghost powers.
He already had a general idea of it, and he had plenty of time to learn about the horror game. There was no need to pester Xu Qian to answer anything for him.
The Haunted Restaurant is very large, and even the dressing rooms are reserved for waiters. After everyone arrived, Xu Qian took a few ladies and walked into the ladies' dressing room. Before leaving, she just said:
"Hurry up and change your clothes as soon as possible."
Lin Chen looked at the row of black suits hanging on the clothesline.
The black suit actually looked red and had an unpleasant odor.
Lin Chen sighed: "It's worthy of being a horror game. The work clothes worn by these waiters are all soaked in blood. I am getting more and more excited."
After years of catching ghosts and being able to sell them for money to become stronger, Lin Chen has no fear of ghosts at all. In fact, the more bizarre and terrifying the scene is, the more excited he becomes.
No other ordinary players noticed anything unusual. They just thought that there was a peculiar smell due to the lack of ventilation for a long time. They could only suppress their nausea and quickly changed one by one.
Lin Chen stood there, looking around intentionally or unintentionally. At this moment, he felt that there was a ghost emitting evil energy, hiding in some , but he didn't know where it was.
This ghost is hiding very deeply.
"Judging from this method, it must be at least a red-clothed ghost, otherwise it would be impossible to hide it from my eyes!"
Lin Chen thought secretly.
When the other waiters saw that he didn't change his clothes, they thought that this newcomer who had never received any training was scared silly and couldn't help but sneer.
People are like this. When they are full of negative emotions, they suddenly realize that someone is not even as good as themselves, and their mood will naturally relax.
These people, without realizing it, felt a little less nervous, as if someone was taking the blame for them. Even if they were to die, this kid who knew nothing would die first.
Lin Chen glanced at a few people, noticed their changes in expressions, understood something in his mind, and couldn't help but sneer.
He picked up a piece of clothing of similar size and changed into it without making a fuss for the time being.
At this time, everyone had changed their clothes. They stood up, glanced at Lin Chen who was still changing clothes, and turned away indifferently.
Lin Chen was still changing his clothes calmly, without any rush. After changing his clothes, Lin Chen hummed a little tune, walked to the mirror, looked in the mirror, and fixed his hair.
Compared with the rush of others, it looks very different.
He was waiting for the hidden ghost to show up.
"Your companions are gone, aren't you afraid?"
Behind him, a black figure like ink emerged from the shadows on the ground . It was a male ghost covered in oil. He was wearing a worker's clothes and his skin was covered in oil, so his original appearance could not be seen at all.
However, in the dark oil, a bright red bag floating in the air showed that this ghost was a red-clothed level evil ghost.
“Tick-tock.”
“Tick-tock.”
The sound of oil dripping onto the ground was extremely creepy in the dark locker room.
"How pitiful, abandoned by his companions."
The oil ghost's voice was cold and greedy, as if a man who had been hungry for three days saw the meal he had longed for.
Lin Chen turned around slowly and asked calmly, "Do you want to attack me? In a horror game, if the player doesn't trigger any mechanism, you can't actively attack me, right?"
"You are the only one who stayed until the end, and you looked in my mirror, which has offended me. As compensation, is it not too much for me to ask for your arm?"
Killing someone just by looking in the mirror?
Lin Chen was a little speechless. He asked that question just now specifically to confirm what Zhang Wei said about the protection mechanism of the horror game for humans.
But for now, it seems that this protection mechanism... is just that.
After saying this, the oil ghost rushed over excitedly with a grim smile on his face. However, just as he got close to Lin Chen and was about to grab Lin Chen's hands and tear his arms off, he saw Lin Chen suddenly move.
He only vaguely saw Lin Chen raise his hand, and suddenly felt a huge force coming from above his head , and was knocked to the ground.
The oil ghost lay on the ground, stunned on the spot. This is the power that only humans can possess.
Lin Chen grabbed the oil ghost's hair and lifted his head up. He smiled and said in the original words of the oil ghost: "You want my arm, I want your body, is that too much?"
The oil ghost, who was already stunned and in self-doubt, suddenly changed his expression when he heard this, and said in panic: "Brother, I am a man!"
Lin Chen's face darkened: "Who the hell wants this from you? I'm going to sell you to the illegal mining area to mine!"
Oil Ghost: “???”
Then he saw a pink sack appear out of thin air in the boy's hand, and then it fell directly over his head.
Suddenly, everything in front of me was plunged into darkness.
Lin Chen gathered up the sack, shrunk it, put it back on his body, and left the locker room directly.
To ordinary people, there are crises everywhere, but to him, these crises often represent money and resources.
"System, sell him to me."
[Successful resale, get 1000 Shengui coins]
[Balance of Shengui Coins: 1000]
When Lin Chen saw the price at which the Oil Ghost sold it, the anger on his face disappeared without a trace.
This is a red ghost that has just entered the red stage. Its strength is average, so its selling price is only the lowest 1,000 Shengui coins!
But this is still a big gain for Lin Chen.
He had worked day and night in human society for so many years, but had never caught such a valuable ghost.
When Lin Chen walked out of the locker room, there was no one in front of the door. It seemed that all the players had left and went to the staff hall to wait for work assignments.
Lin Chen had no choice but to follow the signs in the corridor and walk towards the staff hall.
The moment the oil ghost was successfully resold by the system, all the ghosts, big and small, in the restaurant were stunned for a moment. At this time, they had already received the information in the ghost channel in their minds.
"Ghost player Oil Ghost has been eliminated."
These ghosts were extremely shocked. The Haunted Restaurant dungeon had been opened so many times, but this was the first time they heard of a red-level ghost being eliminated!
"What's going on? The Oil Ghost is in red clothes. Who among these novice players can defeat him?"
"Could it be the protector who did it?"
"Those three guides only have a few dozen or a hundred ghost powers. Even with Qing Yi's strength, even if they join forces, they are no match for the Oil Ghost!"
"Is there an expert among the human players? You must be kidding. I have never heard of a novice player who can kill the Red Ghost."
"I just ran into the oil ghost. He said he was going to the locker room to try his luck. This time he really got lucky."
"No matter what, the person who can kill the Red-clothed Oil Ghost in the early stage must be very powerful. We have to be careful and not to find fault with him or else we will get into trouble."
"The oil ghost went to the room where the waiters change their clothes, so the person who killed the oil ghost was most likely one of the waiters. I'm the chef, supervising the vegetable washers. There's a master hidden among the waiters, and it has nothing to do with me."
"That's right. I'm in charge of supervising the cleaners. It's all right."
"Oh my god, I'm a responsible customer and the gaming experience is terrible!"
