Chapter 62 Carnival (4) “You don’t want to try to change the monster…

Fei was somewhat surprised to hear this, but he did not think that the lighting engineer could help him in any way. With what the general system had said before, plus the test of the Prolock, although he had no previous impressions, he had a clearer understanding.

The skills he possesses are not limited to those that the Kwaidan game once gave to players. He can control Kwaidan without the help of any extra external factors.

Fei even wondered whether the skill of "Infiltration" was a so-called generous gift from the ghost story game, or whether it was an ability that originally belonged to him, and it was just a reminder to make him feel reasonable and real when using it.

"I heard that after completing the game, you received a reward that freed you from the rules of the Kwaidan realm. What a coincidence, isn't it? Is it really because of the Kwaidan game?"

The lighting engineer took a step closer. The mirror wall, which had returned to its original state, was filled with his excited smile. In front of him, the protagonist of the topic always maintained a cold expression.

"Maybe you could have done it anyway. This is how it should be." The lighting technician suddenly raised his hand. The glass fragments that Fei had thrown to the ground appeared in his hand at some point, and he pointed them at his neck.

"Don't you really need it? I want to help you, even if it means sacrificing my life." The sharp edges tore the wound even wider, but he continued, "What if it's just a matter of cognition?"

"Of course, things that haven't been considered can't happen. I assume you've already tried. Besides the abilities you typically use in Kaidan games, what else can you do? Don't you want to try changing the rules of the Kaidan world?"

Fei looked at him, as if he finally realized what he was going to do. The lighting technician wanted him to revive the dead.

Resurrection from the dead is impossible in Kwaidan, not just in the carnival, but in all Kwaidan. The various restrictions and prompt rules on monsters in Kwaidan are only for maintaining the balance of the game.

Rather than hope.

Fei originally just wanted to control the ghost stories and hadn't thought about it that far, but the lighting technician gave him some inspiration.

It seems that after returning to the Surveillance Bureau in a few days, he can try to influence the essential rules of the world of ghost stories.

"Whatever you want." Fei had no intention of stopping this man's crazy behavior, but if he really died, he would probably be covered in blood, so he took a step back and left without looking back, "But I don't have the mood to do that now."

He can't do anything here at the moment. Most things, including those deliberately hidden by the main system, will have to wait until he goes to the world of ghost stories to find out.

Now he was more concerned about how long it would take Shi Yu to get out of the mirror maze after entering it.

I have a question.

The system popped up shortly after he said that, clearly more concerned with something else: "If you leave, what if Shi Yu gets into an accident? Shen Que and the Operations Department can't keep an eye on him the whole time, right?"

"Aren't you here? Remember to monitor the situation in real time and relay the situation to me." Fei paused for a few seconds as if he were telling a joke, then spoke in a more serious tone. "Based on the past events that have been retraced, I don't think anything will happen to him during this period."

[…But you’re very confident in Shen Que? Aren’t you afraid that something might happen to him?]

Fei sighed. "Does it matter whether I'm relieved or not? To be honest, sometimes you can be too human. I didn't have such rich emotions in the early days of my memory."

"Novi's creations are basically as fake as "Him," but you give me a completely different feeling." Fei pointed out something else. He stood at the entrance of the mirror maze. The sky outside was already dimly lit. "What on earth are you?"

[Uh...do I have to be a thing?]

"It doesn't have to be."

Fei didn't continue arguing with the system. He thought Shi Yu would come to the mirror maze as soon as he got out of the doll state. There were not many tourists at this time, and there were relatively fewer variables.

The facts were indeed similar to what he thought.

There were not many people queuing at the entrance of the maze project, and the staff were maintaining order in an orderly manner. Fei entered the maze before Shi Yu arrived. The overlapping mirrors carried the same figure, and another dark shadow flashed in the field of vision.

"Behind you! Watch out!"

When Shi Yu's voice suddenly rang out in the room, Fei's footsteps paused for a moment, as if he wanted to turn around and look at him, but his sight was blocked by the moving glass.

Fei withdrew his gaze and glanced at the restless hand that stretched out from the mirror. The warning look successfully calmed the monster down, but unlike his calmness, endless screams of fear continued to echo in the room.

The comments were hilarious, and it looked like Shi Yu and Wen Tingxu, the two ghost-phobic people, were pretty scared.

The mirror wall beside him changed again. Fei turned his head and saw that the person coming was Su Yang.

Su Yang was also a little surprised. She had hardly any contact with Fei, but he had helped her many times after all, so she was no longer as wary as she was at the beginning. After thinking about it, she still greeted him politely.

"You want us to come to the Mirror Maze? Is it because this project is relatively simple, or is there some other reason?" Su Yang tried to take the initiative to speak, but her guess was more inclined towards the latter. "Is there a key rule here?"

Unfortunately, Fei denied her question: "The key rules are not in these amusement projects. It's just a matter of meeting the requirements of the rules. The maze is a relatively easy project."

Although Fei said it was of low difficulty, the overall structure of the maze was constantly changing, and it was impossible to break through by forcibly breaking the mirrors. Su Yang tried it, and the mirrors would be restored, and it only took two or three seconds.

Fei stood there without making any unnecessary movements. He looked at the mirror in front of him and said slowly, "We'll talk about finding a way out later. Now you have to find your companions first, right?"

Fei's words were like some kind of well-intentioned guidance. Su Yang realized something. She moved the silk thread, and the sharp thread like a knife cut all the mirrors within the field of vision, and broke the glass walls again before they could be repaired.

Familiar figures soon appeared at the end. Shi Yu also saw them and his expression suddenly became surprised. However, the moving mirror blocked him again in the next moment, and the broken mirrors were replaced with brand new ones.

Before Shi Yu disappeared, Su Yang's silk thread wrapped around his wrist, and now they knew each other's location.

The connecting silk thread was tightening and trembling. Su Yang followed the guidance of his own ability and moved closer to the other end. Fei, on the other hand, looked like he was doing good deeds without leaving a name. After showing his few good intentions, he planned to turn around and leave.

"Are you leaving?" Su Yang suddenly turned around and asked him. She looked at Fei and spoke in a much softer voice, "I heard from Shi Yu that you and his brother are acquainted."

Fei didn't know why she suddenly said that. Perhaps it was the rare opportunity for contact that made Su Yang feel the need to express her confusion: "But you gave me a very familiar feeling just now, like... Bai Bei is here."

Maybe it was because Bai Bei had counseled her gently in the same way before, or maybe it was because of the similar tone of voice. The strange similarity seemed like an unrealistic association, and Su Yang herself felt extremely unbelievable.

She opened her mouth to ask, but ultimately didn't ask. The opportunity was fleeting, and the rotating mirror stopped everything. Su Yang could only see the faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

[Su Yang… guessed that you were Fei?] The system was still a little slow to react.

Fei did not answer. He knew that Su Yang was smart and perceptive enough, but he did not expect that she would discover more just through this contact. He also knew that she would not tell Shi Yu.

"It doesn't matter whether they guess it or not. I'm leaving soon anyway, and they will definitely find out then." Fei, who was suspected of being exposed in the near future, was too lazy to even move. He simply let the rotating mirror take him to another space.

It is called a mirror maze, but Fei thinks it is more appropriate to call it a mirror cube. The spaces they are in are made up of cubes, and the mirrors isolate these disordered spaces.

"Let's make a bet?" Fei occasionally chatted with the system when he was in the mood. "How long do you think it will take them to find me?"

The system thought to itself, "You're the one you shouldn't worry about the most. Will they really come looking for you?" [Hmm... 20 minutes?]

"No."

As he finished speaking, the glass wall in front of him suddenly stopped rotating, and the ground beneath his feet faintly trembled. Fei looked at the three people who appeared in front of him and walked over. "It's only been five minutes. It seems that their growth is quite obvious."

As he approached, Shi Yu eagerly shared her method: "I can retrace the entire maze! As long as I freeze all the mirrors in one position, the route won't change, making it easy to find the way out!"

Shi Yu's method certainly works. Fei did not deny it. He nodded. The young man, who was recognized, excitedly took control of the entire moving maze, while Su Yang was responsible for breaking the mirrors, and the route to the exit became clear.

Fei and Wen Tingxu, who rarely had to intervene, stood by and felt the joy of being carried away and lying down at close range.

[Wow, our protagonist group is growing so fast. The previous High-Risk Ghost Stories were basically all about Brother Fei. I was so busy cheering for Brother Fei that I forgot who the protagonist of the sequel is (not really)]

I can't take it anymore. I can actually taste a hint of the guardian's comfort and love in Fei Ge's eyes.

[But Fei Shen did provide guidance many times, so why isn't he considered a reliable guardian of our protagonists in the strange story... Brother, why didn't you leave us behind?]

The lively comments were half teasing and half crying, as if the system could predict how the comic readers would cry in a while. The reactions of these people after discovering the truth were absolutely wonderful.

Fei himself didn't take it seriously at all. He followed the others out of the maze.

Compared to these entertainment facilities, the real difficulty should be the evening performances, which are unpredictable. Who knows what type of performances the carnival will put together for Shi Yu and the others.

A performance that deliberately failed, where a human body was dismembered, people were tied to a turntable and thrown darts at, and they were locked in a water tank and dumped with piranhas.

There is no doubt that it is inseparable from bloodiness in any way.
