Chapter 466: Ghost Whisperer·My World!

~8 min read 1,509 words

Alliance Ancient Tower, second floor.

A tall youth sat on the stairs leading to the third floor. With his arm joints resting on his legs, his fingers interlaced, leveling with his nose and mouth, he looked a bit pretentious, but...

When the players saw the corpses littered all over the ground in front of him, there was only deep terror.

"Si Jincheng!"

Someone called out his name, and this name spread like a plague. The players who heard it couldn't help but gasp.

Si Jincheng, a Six-Star Player, a Reserve Teammate of the Deceiver Alliance leader.

A Superego Skill owner.

And also a Reserve Floor Master for the first and second floors of the Deceiver Alliance.

Simply put, as long as one of these two Floor Masters died, then their Floor Master position and Death Whisper Rules would be taken over by him.

He could upgrade to Seven-Star at any time, but no one hoped he would upgrade to Seven-Star.

Simply because at Seven-Star, skill values would inflate, and his skill was very special. If he dared to upgrade to Seven-Star, the Floor Masters of the Liar-Slayer Alliance would exterminate him.

Even the leader of the Deceiver Alliance didn't want him to upgrade to Seven-Star.

This kind of existence unexpectedly...

Appeared on the second floor!

Hearing the discussions of the other players, the One-Star, Two-Star, and Three-Star Players turned around and returned to the first floor without even thinking about it. After all, it was impossible for Si Jincheng to stay on the second floor all the time; he would perhaps reap a few waves of Points and then go to a higher floor.

Most Three-Star or below players left, but strangely enough, the Six-Star or above players cupped their hands to Si Jincheng and then passed him, heading to the third floor.

When these two waves of players had left, there were still about three hundred players left on the second floor.

These players were all the cream of the crop among Three-Star and Four-Star players, as well as Five-Star Players.

Chen Ran's group of four mingled in the crowd and discovered Luo Xingchuan's group of five, and the five people also saw their group of four. Killing intent burst forth from the eyes of both sides.

Before long.

When the last corpse in front of Si Jincheng was carried down, he slowly stood up.

Si Jincheng looked around at the crowd: "You are the tenth wave. Previously, there were also arrogant Three, Four, and Five-Star players who wanted to break through, but most left their lives here. I will only ask one sentence, is there anyone else who wants to leave?"

Seeing that no one left, Si Jincheng slowly pulled out his Liar-Slayer. It was a...

Liar-Slayer with a white base and black spots.

"Ghost Whisperer·My World!"

The Secret Room went dark, a gunshot sounded, and in the darkness, the crowd only felt a wave of dizziness. All three hundred plus players were...

Sucked into his Liar-Slayer!

When the light was restored, only Si Jincheng was left on the second floor. The Liar-Slayer in his hand had more black spots, looking more like a black base with white spots.

Si Jincheng continued to sit on the stairs, quietly waiting for the arrival of the next wave of players.

【Form a team?】

Before Chen Ran had time to survey the environment, his line of sight was blocked by a light screen.

He clicked 【Yes】.

Immediately after, over five hundred avatars and names popped up on the light screen. He sent team invitations to Qiu Yinong, Lin Xuan, and Jiang Zhe, and very quickly, these three agreed to team up.

【Quest: Collect Cards hidden in certain rooms in this city.】

【Clear condition: Thirteen Orphans!】

【Prompt: When a single person or a team has a Ready Hand for Thirteen Orphans, a soaring pillar of light will appear on the individual or members, lasting for an hour. Upon ending, completing a Winning Hand can immediately clear the stage; if any one Card is lost, or if unable to complete a Winning Hand, all Cards on the individual or members will disappear. Re-collect.】

【Prompt: Fighting is not prohibited.】

Chen Ran pondered in deep thought.

'Thirteen Orphans, Ready Hand, Winning Hand, this is obviously Mahjong gameplay.'

'In Mahjong, Thirteen Orphans is the thirteen terminal and honor tiles, requiring the collection of thirteen Cards.'

'Namely: the 1 and 9 of Bamboos, 1 and 9 of Dots, 1 and 9 of Characters, and the East, South, West, North, Red, Green, and White Dragons.'

'These thirteen non-repeating cards are the most perfect hand pattern, capable of completing a Winning Hand with any one of the thirteen.'

'But, if one card is repeated, and the other twelve are not repeated, it can also be a Ready Hand, but can only complete a Winning Hand with the missing one.'

'Regardless of the hand pattern, as long as it's a Ready Hand for Thirteen Orphans, a soaring pillar of light will appear on all members of the team, exposing their coordinates. This will attract other players to run over and snatch the Cards.'

'When the pillar of light ends, whether missing one Card or not completing a Winning Hand, all Cards in the team will disappear, and they will have to start over.'

'Only by completing a Winning Hand before the pillar of light ends can the team clear the stage.'

'What is stated here is a Winning Hand, it didn't mention the situation of Self-Drawn, which means that among these thirteen Cards, there is one kind of Card that only has one copy, and it has already been obtained by someone, and this person who obtained it should be a player permanently stationed in this world.'

'Simply put, there is a Card held in the hands of Si Jincheng's teammate or Slave, and the type of this Card has one and only one copy.'

'On the second floor, Si Jincheng allowed Six-Star or above players to pass, indicating that the Star Rating of the person holding this Card in this world...'

'Will not exceed Six-Star!'

'It's highly likely a Six-Star!'

'Summary: Collect thirteen Cards, get a Ready Hand for the Thirteen Orphans hand pattern that only waits for one Card, and then within one hour, snatch that one and only Winning Hand Card from the hands of a Six-Star Player.'

Chen Ran finally understood why no one wanted Si Jincheng to upgrade his Star Rating.

The reason was very simple.

Every skill has flaws. The flaw of Si Jincheng's skill was very obvious, and that was the 【BOSS】 in the skill world could only have the same Star Rating as his, which was Six-Star.

If he upgraded to Ten-Star, he could suck in all the players in Hell, which was equivalent to creating a second 18th Level.

It was too exaggerated.

Who would dare let him upgrade his Star Rating?

Chen Ran noticed that in the second prompt, 【Fighting is not prohibited】.

Distance-Free could be used!!!

However, he had to experiment a bit first to prove that this world was created by Si Jincheng.

And not a Ghost Whisperer Secret Room, or virtual world coverage and the like.

Proving this was also very simple.

Just now on the second floor, there were more than three hundred players, but when Chen Ran was forming a team, there were the avatars and names of more than five hundred players.

In other words.

There were 【Veteran Players】 in this world; they had been trapped here for a long time. As long as they dared to use Distance-Free against Chen Ran, then Chen Ran could be certain that this was an alternate world created by Si Jincheng, unrestricted by the Pillar Rules, and Chen Ran would then dare to use Distance-Free.

It could be understood as this world was an 【Instance】 created by Si Jincheng, and an Instance naturally wasn't restricted by the 18th Level's stone pillars.

Having figured this out.

Next was the problem of collection.

'From deduction, this world is at highest only Six-Star, and the deciphering intensity should also not be higher than Six-Star. Therefore, if the four of us team up together to collect the hand pattern, it might waste a lot of time. It's best to split into pairs to collect. Then the question comes.'

'How should we distribute?'

'Who teams up with whom?'

Very quickly, Chen Ran made a choice.

Qiu Yinong and Lin Xuan in one group; these two could use Distance-Free kills.

As for Jiang Zhe's skill, in Si Jincheng's world, its Priority was definitely not as high as Si Jincheng's skill, but 【Reverse the Future】 could also be used as a skill-breaking method.

'Jiang Zhe and I will be in one group. He is also a Ghost Whisperer and can use skills frequently, so our group will be a pure battle of wits combination.'

'One group for Distance-Free kills.'

'One group for pure battles of wits.'

'Perfect!'

Thinking up to this point, Chen Ran finally had the time to survey this world...
