Chapter 33 What kind of participant is this
Contrary to the bright and luxurious restaurant outside, stepping into the changing room feels like plummeting from heaven to hell in an instant.
The surrounding walls are a green-gray cement, with streaks of blood flowing down. Long wigs hang on the wall, suspended like human heads. On the walls on either side of the door, there are half skeletons embedded.
It was as if during the wall construction, living people were built into the wall, and through great struggle, only the upper body was pulled out, gradually turning into dry bones over time.
What's terrifying is that as the door was opened, those two skeletons suddenly began to struggle violently. Two pale skeleton hands desperately clawing towards the door.
The girl in the leather jacket, who was walking at the front, let out a scream and fell to the ground.
"Don't be afraid, in such a place, the more afraid you are, the faster you die!" The veteran called Jiang Ping was pale, but he still tried to remain calm.
Several participants tried to avoid the two skeletons at the door as much as possible.
When Alexander entered the changing room, he couldn't help but feel a certain sensation.
The restaurant outside wasn't terrifying, and according to the ghost master's words, it did not have any purposeful instance add-ons installed. Alexander thought the ghost master didn't want to affect the customers' appetites, so he gave up.
Now it seems, he did not give up collecting the fear of the participants, but instead placed the add-ons to increase fear elsewhere.
As for the restaurant outside, what could be more terrifying than those never-ending customers?
For the other participants, this doesn't seem to matter much. As participants, the terrifying properties of the add-on act directly on their psyche. But they can't see these properties, and even if they could destroy them, it wouldn't help, as the add-ons would be refreshed with the restart of the instance.
But Alexander is a ghost master! He can see the properties of the add-on! Not only can he see them, but he can even take them away!
Whether he loads them into his own instance, or sells them directly through the unique ghost master's store, in any case, this thing is useful to him!
He turns the ghost orb in his hand, looks at the two skeletons, and indeed the properties appear in front of Alexander.
Skeleton hanging on the wall
Level: Resentful Spirit
Properties: Instance add-on, Fear+5
Features: Installed on the wall to create an embedded effect, as if alive and built into the wall. When encountering a participant, struggle violently, adding an extra 3 points of fear.
What a good thing!
Alexander glanced at the instance store, this type of add-on, one for five hundred ghost coins.
Just by taking these two add-ons, could he get a thousand ghost coins?
Don't think a thousand is a small amount, a 3s rating only rewards five hundred ghost coins!
Now this thousand, it's practically being given away!
Alexander didn't hesitate, stepped forward and grabbed the struggling skeleton hand, yanking it forcefully.
To the astonishment of the other participants, Alexander... actually pulled the skeleton rack right out of the wall.
Everyone swallowed hard, their eyes full of shock and fear as they looked at Alexander.
"What are you doing!" Veteran Jiang Ping, summoning up his courage, stood up and yelled at Alexander: "If you randomly destroy things in the instance, aren't you afraid of getting us all into trouble!"
"Don't worry!" Alexander glanced at him and calmly explained: "The master of this instance is the mysterious manager who, it's said, nobody has ever seen. It seems he doesn't show up in the restaurant often."
"And that manager we just saw, I don't think someone of his status would be aware of everything happening in this instance at any given moment."
"Just now, in addition to assigning us to our dining areas, the manager also left two people in charge of cleaning. The kitchen, the restaurant, even the storage room, all except this changing room."
"Considering his disdainful attitude towards us, I guess he won't come to inspect the changing room!"
His reasoned explanation left everyone speechless. Especially as most of the participants were newcomers, they looked at Alexander with admiring, sparkling eyes.
This made Jiang Ping, who was also a veteran, uncomfortable. He snorted: "With all your fancy talk, you think nobody has ever brought anything out of an instance? What's the point of taking such useless things?"
"It's extremely meaningful! These are all works of art, can't I take them back for decoration?" Alexander retorted, then ignored Jiang Ping, pulling out the other skeleton on his own.
He didn't even need to put it in his storage, he directly chose to load it. The next moment, two creepy skeletons were embedded on the wall behind the toilet door in his building.
For others, this instance was a horror game, but for him, it might not only be a social game, but also an interior design game.
Each of these instances was like a furniture showroom!
While others came to fight for their lives, he came to collect goods and decorate!
The participants didn't know that Alexander owned a ghost building. Listening to him, they felt goosebumps on their scalps.
Having two grotesque skeletons embedded on the walls at home, ready to give anyone who comes a bony hug?
What a hellish interior design style!
No wonder he offended the manager as soon as he arrived, this guy must be mentally abnormal!
Fearing they might get dragged into trouble by Alexander, the participants quickly put on their work clothes from the wardrobe and ran out. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even if the work clothes were covered in fresh blood, even if there was a skull popping in and out of the cabinet, they didn't find it so scary anymore.
When the last participant was about to leave the changing room after quickly dressing up, he looked back one last time.
Alexander was seen with an excited expression, reaching out and pulling out the skull from the cabinet. After examining it and apparently finding that it didn't move, he disappointedly tossed it aside and began to dress.
Oh my God!
What kind of participant is this!
The one who was at the door trembled and immediately quickened his pace.
By the time Alexander came out of the dressing room, the outside had already started to bustle, with customers coming into the restaurant one after another.
Some of these customers didn't look much different from normal people, while others were terrifying.
Some were wrapped in red bandages, some wore their bloody intestines as scarves around their necks, some were holding their own heads, and some were charred all over, emitting green smoke...
The participants nervously went forward to serve.
A girl named Jessica, perhaps because of extreme nervousness, accidentally stumbled and bumped into a customer with intestines wrapped around his neck.
"It's okay, don't worry!" The customer smiled, his bloody hand slowly brushing down the girl's cheek, neck, chest, abdomen, and finally resting on her navel.
Black ghostly energy flashed by, and to the girl's horror, the customer's hand plunged directly into her body.
The next moment, a section of intestine was pulled out.
Strangely enough, there was no visible wound on the girl's stomach.
"Don't worry, you'll be fine! This small mistake just cost you a piece of intestine! Next time, you might not be so lucky!" The customer was still smiling, hung the small section of intestine around his neck as a collection, then politely bowed to Jessica.
Jessica was obviously in extreme pain, with cold sweat pouring from her forehead. She gritted her teeth against the pain and managed to put the cup with an unknown liquid and floating eyeballs that she was holding on the table before clutching her stomach and rushing towards the bathroom.
For these customers, the selected waitstaff were probably a form of attraction as well!
Alexander watched this scene, frowning deeply.
At that moment, the restaurant door opened, and a woman in a red dress with a charming face walked in.
She was the terrifying female ghost who was cut into 36,000 pieces by her boyfriend with a scalpel in a video of the Ghost Restaurant he had seen before!
And the place she was going to was, astonishingly, the VIP area that Alexander was in charge of!
