Chapter 200 Please Do Not Beat Up NPCs

【Huh? May I ask you something?】

[Haha, here's a joke: the dungeon boss said he's afraid of ghosts!]

[What's wrong? What's wrong? Just because you can tear apart the supernatural doesn't mean you can't be afraid of ghosts? Just because you can kill the entire production crew without batting an eye doesn't mean you can't be afraid of ghosts... Sorry, I can't keep this up. I declare that Ling Wu being afraid of ghosts is the biggest lie in this live stream.]

[Ling Wu: My wife says I'm afraid of ghosts, so is that not allowed?]

Okay, okay, we know you're afraid of your wife.

Regardless of the doubts expressed in the live stream, Jiang Liyue was very satisfied with Ling Wu's answer.

She hooked her hand around his palm and comforted him with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Ling Wu glanced at the dark entrance to the haunted house, then at Jiang Liyue's relaxed expression, and decisively leaned against her shoulder like a big bird: "Okay, then thank you for protecting me, baby."

The other four strange figures present shared similar feelings with the viewers in the live stream, their expressions extremely bewildered.

No, were the terrifying forces they felt an illusion? Are you serious about saying you're afraid of ghosts?

In contrast, the four players who overheard their conversation nearby, unaware of the truth, seemed thoughtful.

So, in Couple Number One, is the male player the real player? And that pretty young lady is actually a terrifying female ghost?

To be honest, seeing that man's gloomy expression from time to time yesterday, they thought he was the weird one.

In other words, the reason that female ghost contributed such a high amount of love points was because she was love-struck?!

Why should I?!

The male player, who was also number four, looked at Ling Wu with obvious envy.

They're both men, so why is Number One so lucky to randomly get a lovestruck female ghost who's also so beautiful?

Unlike the female ghost he randomly encountered, who only ate his flesh.

They're all male players, so how come some of them are so lucky?

The fourth male player's gaze shifted to Ling Wu's face. Wasn't he just a handsome pretty boy?

His looks weren't much worse than the other guy's... Okay, even if he's not as good-looking, what's the use of being handsome? It's his masculine charm that's attractive.

The fourth male player, who disliked showering and had a stubble beard, thought confidently to himself.

Jiang Liyue was unaware that other players had misunderstood their identities as human and ghost, and she often didn't bother to pay attention to others.

However, if she knew what the fourth male player was thinking, she would probably let him experience what true power is.

After the director announced that couples could enter the haunted house, Jiang Liyue took her boyfriend, who was "afraid of ghosts," and went in first.

The haunted house inside the instance was indeed very atmospheric.

The long corridor was pitch black, with only a faint red wall lamp illuminating the side. All was quiet except for the sound of dripping water.

Jiang Liyue looked at Ling Wu beside her.

Ling Wu immediately put his arm around her shoulder and whispered, "Yueyue, I'm scared."

Jiang Liyue patted his shoulder: "It's okay, let's go in and take a look."

Is this what young couples do for fun?

That's right, this is what our dramatic, elementary school-aged couple is like.

The two, one human and one ghost, walked hand in hand along the passageway into the interior.

As we turned the corner, a face with alternating pale and bluish tinges suddenly appeared before us.

The face was contorted, with bloody tears streaming from its eyes, and in the red light it looked like a vengeful ghost coming to claim a life.

This is a common "sudden face-scare" tactic in haunted houses, designed to terrify people with unexpected frights.

But Jiang Liyue reacted even faster; the moment that face suddenly appeared, she grabbed the other person's hair and slammed them to the ground—

It made a loud thud.

It was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the sound of bones cracking and breaking.

The female ghost in the red wedding dress crashed to the ground, letting out a painful scream.

Jiang Liyue, fearing that she might get up again, stomped on her head before reassuring Ling Wu beside her, "It's alright now."

Just as Ling Wu was about to make her move, she quickly put on a frightened expression: "You scared me to death, Yueyue. Luckily, you were here."

Since he wasn't a professional actor, his expressions weren't quite right, but Jiang Liyue wasn't his mentor, but his girlfriend.

She didn't have high expectations for her boyfriend's acting skills, and reassured him by kissing him, "It's okay, it's okay."

Ling Wu blinked, feeling the kiss on her lips and the lingering fragrance.

So pretending to be scared can have such a good effect? ​​He realized.

The female ghost lying on the ground: ...Hello, do you young lovers even notice my presence when you're in love?

Also, has anyone told you that you can't beat up NPCs in a haunted house?

Knowing that being scared would result in a kiss from Jiang Liyue, Ling Wu put on an even more enthusiastic performance.

A strange creature possessing the most powerful strength in the dungeon boldly pounced on Jiang Liyue's chest and mumbled, "It's so dark, I'm really scared."

Or he would cling tightly to Jiang Liyue's arm and refuse to let go when something strange happened in the haunted house, insisting that she kiss him.

Jiang Liyue dealt with the situation quickly; every ghost that appeared in front of her was beaten up by her.

The two didn't seem to be there to explore the haunted house; they looked more like they were there to ransack it.

Later on, no more monsters were willing to go out onto the road in front of them to scare them.

The main problem is that going up there won't scare anyone at all! Let alone take the opportunity to eat some human flesh.

It might scare a creepy creature, but given the terrifying aura emanating from that creature, who's scaring whom?

I don't feel any sense of accomplishment at all!

The monsters would get nothing but a beating for nothing, so of course they weren't willing to go.

So much so that later on, Jiang Liyue and Ling Wu walked around the haunted house for a long time without encountering a single ghost.

Ling Wu had no excuse to ask Jiang Liyue for a kiss, and looked resentfully at the eerily decorated haunted house.

What a terrible haunted house! There isn't a single ghost in it. Doesn't that prevent him from getting a kiss from Yueyue?

Whether the director will actually set up a haunted house or not, I'm going to beat him up when we get back.

The director, who was unaware of the situation: Huh?

Jiang Liyue, realizing belatedly that no ghosts had appeared, blinked and asked, "Why aren't there any ghosts? Have we finished exploring?"

Haunted houses are so relaxing!

The beating up of the weirdos: haunted houses are anything but easy TT
