Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

"Where's that chair? How could it be gone..." the actress said in a trembling voice, looking around in panic.

She also remembers that the rocking chair would rock on its own, making a creaking sound.

This chair was clearly haunted, but now it's gone.

"Could it be that the bald guy who just ran away took it with him?" Zhou Muchen wondered.

"Why is Baldy moving this chair?" Fan Chen shook his head.

The disappearance of the chair may indicate that the corresponding evil spirit has already taken action.

He immediately activated his alert system.

After the Spirit level was continuously upgraded, the maximum range of alert had reached within 20 meters around the perimeter.

It can almost contain the entire building.

However, he did not perceive any hostile target.

—The vigilance perception can detect the malice of ghosts, but the bald man belongs to the player, so his malice cannot be detected.

"Forget it, maybe it'll just suddenly appear on its own later." Fan Chen gave up for the time being and walked into the activity room.

"Isn't that even more terrifying?"

While the actress and the man in sunglasses were internally complaining, Fan Chen had already arrived in front of the television and video recorder placed against the wall.

The television was a CRT type with a large head, and the VCR also had a very old-fashioned feel.

He took out the videotape and fiddled with the equipment in front of him.

He had checked this place before.

Without power, neither the television nor the VCR can start.

They are not considered strange or eerie items.

Now that we have the videotape, the only option is to play it here.

After fiddling around for a while, Fan Chen opened the cassette player's cartridge, inserted a videotape, and pushed it in.

The video recorder and television still did not respond.

*Slap! Slap!* Fan Chen raised his hand and patted the large-headed TV.

"You, you be careful, don't disturb anything..." the actress hurriedly reminded in a trembling voice.

It's not like it's malfunctioning. Can't it be fixed by just tapping it?

But as soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden "hiss" sound, and the TV flickered.

The switch light on the VCR seemed to flash briefly as well.

"Really... it works?" The group was quite surprised.

Zhou Muchen immediately raised his hand, wanting to try it too.

"Wait." Fan Chen stopped him, having already figured something out.

The focus isn't on filming TV shows, but rather...

He placed his hand on the large CRT television.

A tingling sensation immediately spread through my palm.

The television screen lit up again, but it was a distorted image, and the power light on the VCR also turned on.

"This thing requires mental energy to activate," Fan Chen explained.

His mental attributes began to decline steadily: -1-1-1-1...

They already knew a rule: those in abnormal states would be captured by the staff of the mental hospital.

A decrease in mental attributes constitutes an abnormal state.

Players who want to see the recorded content must risk being captured by the employee ghosts.

"We can take turns consuming our mental attributes," the actress suggested.

Fan Chen remained noncommittal. Watching his rapidly declining mental energy, he suddenly became curious and wanted to see what the employee ghost looked like.

This is a rare and excellent opportunity.

After all, his mental attributes require considerable effort to lower on their own...

"How do I start this thing? It's an antique from decades ago." Zhou Muchen hurriedly studied the video recorder.

"I've used it before, let me do it." The man in sunglasses leaned closer.

He pushed his sunglasses up to his forehead, examined the old machine, and reached out to press a button on it.

When everyone saw his bright eyes, they were filled with questions: So you're not blind after all?

Not only Fan Chen, but everyone else also guessed that he was blind.

Zhou Muchen asked, "You can see?"

"When did I ever say I was blind?"

The man in sunglasses pointed to his sunglasses: "This is a strange item. When I wear it, I can't see."

Zhou Muchen: "Sunglasses that will blind you if you wear them?"

"That's just a side effect!" the man in sunglasses said irritably. "But in return, I'll gain other abilities."

"What exactly it is, that's my secret, I won't tell you."

Although they were all working together, he remained sufficiently wary.

As he spoke, the screen on the large-screen TV flickered a few times, displaying a shaky image.

Fan Chen suddenly realized that the hanging rope at the courtyard gate hadn't affected the man in sunglasses because he genuinely couldn't see it at the time.

The ability to hide in the dark, along with heightened hearing and perception, are likely the special effects of sunglasses.

Thinking about all this, Fan Chen looked at the television screen.

The image on the television was somewhat blurry and shaky, but it was still vaguely discernible that it was filming the auditorium we had just visited.

Patients in hospital gowns and hospital staff in white coats were sitting in those chairs.

They looked perfectly normal; they were all living, breathing human beings.

There was nothing strange about watching these television broadcasts; they seemed like just ordinary recordings.

What is being documented is Mr. Kun's performance at the mental hospital.

The scene was very noisy; the mental patients were like a group of children, making a racket.

"Quiet down, or don't blame me for being rude!"

In the shaky video, a female doctor stands up and shouts.

The female doctor looked to be in her forties, with a beautiful face, but her expression was frosty, giving her an extremely dignified air.

She was highly respected among the patients, and all the mental patients immediately fell silent.

Fan Chen recognized that the female doctor sitting in the middle of the front row in the family photo must be the director of Ebony Mental Hospital.

Previously, in the Dark Hall, he was also a member of the ghost audience and had been killed by Fan Chen many times.

"Old classmate, don't worry about it, continue your performance," the female dean said in a gentle voice to the simple stage.

The shaky camera then shifts to the stage.

A middle-aged man in a suit stood in the middle of the stage, holding a violin.

This is clearly the famous musician, Mr. Kun.

Was the female dean and he old classmates?

"Next, I'm going to play a piece for Dean Cai. This is something I've always wanted to play for you," Mr. Kun said with a smile, placing his violin on his shoulder.

A melodious tune then began to play.

Fan Chen and the others were taken aback, because the piece of music they were playing was "The Butterfly Lovers".

However, it wasn't the ghostly version we heard before, but a normal tune.

Although the sound from the CRT TV was somewhat distorted, it was still quite pleasant to listen to.

"There's nothing strange about the video itself; the hidden secret lies within its content...."

Fan Chen pondered curiously.

The Liang Zhu song is over twenty minutes long; I hope the video recording will also be twenty minutes long.

Fan Chen's mental attributes are constantly being depleted.

The current 428 points of spirit attribute will soon drop by nearly half.

If it descends any further, it will trigger the curse backlash of the Demon Eye Tiger-Slaying Blade.

Li Hu's Curse will activate when one of Fan Chen's base attributes drops to about one-third.

"Is the hospital's ghost employee coming or not?" Fan Chen looked around expectantly.

suddenly.

Just as his mental strength dropped to 214 points, a blurry shadow appeared in his field of vision.

There were two or three meters between them.

coming!

When a player's mental attribute drops to half, a ghostly employee from the mental hospital will appear and capture them.

As his mental attributes continued to decrease, the blurry shadow kept getting closer to Fan Chen.

"Boss."

An Ran's voice rang in Fan Chen's mind. She had already activated her Spirit Detection Eye and saw the footprints that were approaching Fan Chen.

"Stop, I'll take over for you," she said with concern.

"No need, I want to see what's going on with the employee ghost," Fan Chen refused.

The ghostly figure in my field of vision became clearer and clearer as it got closer.

Fan Chen could already tell that it was wearing a white coat, its face was ashen, and its expression was ferocious.

He stretched out his hand towards Fan Chen, as if to arrest him.

It was getting closer and closer to Fan Chen.

Like He Yichao, only Fan Chen could see it.

Other players can only detect clues through special skills.

"You're sick, you can't wander around outside... Come back to the ward with me..."

The employee ghost spoke in a cold voice.

Its hand had already grabbed Fan Chen's arm; it was ice-cold.

Two black handprints appeared on Fan Chen's exposed arm.

[Warning: You have been affected by the aura of the underworld!]

Spirit +4

Psychic +9

Spirit +3

...]

A prompt appears before my eyes: the employee ghost possesses a strange power with nether attributes.

Unlike He Yichao, Fan Chen's body did not stiffen; the strange influence he received transformed into a reverse amplification.

Although driving the video recorder was taking a toll on his mental energy.

But overall, things are improving.

A hint of confusion appeared on the employee's grim face.

Following the rules, once Fan Chen's mental attributes began to improve, it released Fan Chen's arm and prepared to retreat.

But Fan Chen grabbed its hand in return.

Fan Chen: Still want to leave? Stay and give me some energy!

The touch was icy cold; the influence of that ghostly aura continued.

Employee Ghost: ?
