Rules Strange Tales: SSS Talent? I Play With Them All

Jiang Ran's soul swapped with his parallel world self, and he arrived in a strange world of rules. Amidst rules that are hard to distinguish between true and false, and a succession of ill-inte...

Chapter 138 Dual Personality

What?! VIP guests?!

Relying on Gou Shi's fawning smile, he froze on his face. He had thought that as a guest, expressing respect to a crew member would earn him some goodwill, but he didn't expect that the crew member wouldn't even look at him!

But they've only been in this strange world for less than half an hour, right?! Everyone started from the same point, yet Jiang Ran has already become a VIP?

The difference between people is just too great!

"Well then, goodbye. Thanks to Mr. Gou Shi, I'm going to enjoy my own VIP service."

Relying on Gou Shi, Jiang Ran felt a burning pain on his face and could only watch helplessly as the blue-clad crew member respectfully led him away.

"Damn it! How did he get VIP status? Right! Observer! You must have seen how he did it, right? Tell me now! I want to be a VIP too! Only then can I get ahead of everyone else!"

According to Gou Shi, the VIP status would definitely bring unexpected benefits, so the sooner they obtained it, the better. If they waited until Jiang Ran did something before trying to imitate him, it would probably be too late!

Since Gou Shi had made this request, the observer directly used the first prompting opportunity to inform him that he could go to the captain's cabin to obtain a VIP card.

"A hospitable captain? And we can get other important information? Oh dear, why didn't you remind me sooner! Oh well, it's not too late to go now!"

With a confident smile, Gou Shi walked towards the captain's cabin!

He has always been seen as a smart person in his previous live streams, so Japanese netizens trust his judgment at this moment!

"Look at Yi Jun's confident stride, that's the stride of victory!"

Soon, witnessed by netizens, Yi Tou Shi also pushed open the door to the captain's cabin!

"Oh! Captain, I've come to find you!"

Planck squinted at him disdainfully. Wait, who is this person? Do I know him that well?

"Brother! Your expression is too cold! I'm your dear brother, Yituo Gou Shi!"

Relying on Gou Shi? Planck carefully recalled his memories. That's right! Isn't this the person Brother Jiang Ran asked him to "take special care" of?

"Quick, quick, have a seat! Oh! Brother, you're here. I must treat you well. Are you thirsty? Then quickly bring me an ice-cold beer!"

"Haha! You're such a hospitable brother!"

The two's enthusiastic demeanor further convinced netizens that Captain Planck must be a good person, and many observers were already tempted to warn their own ghost story writers to go find the captain.

"Come on, brother, you must keep this VIP card safe!" Planck chuckled and patted Yi Yue Gou Shi on the shoulder, slipping a red VIP card into his hand.

Having come here with the help of Gou Shi, his purpose was this card, so he put the card into his pocket with a silly grin on his face.

"By the way, bro, is there any other information you want to tell me?"

According to the observer's clues, Jiang Ran not only received a VIP card, but also some important information. However, because he was whispering to the captain at the time, no one knew what the two of them were talking about.

Given the opportunity, he naturally wanted to find out the details.

"We're all brothers, so before we talk about anything else, let's drink this glass of wine first. Cheers, brothers!"

Planck smiled and handed Yi Guoshi a glass of the same wine.

"If you don't drink, you're not giving me face!"

Seeing that the bottle from which Planck poured his drink was the same one he was drinking from, Gou Shi knew he wouldn't get any more information if he didn't drink it. So, he pretended to be magnanimous and downed the drink in one gulp!

"This wine tastes really good... ugh—"

Relying on Gou Shi, he felt a tightness in his chest as an octopus tentacle, thicker than his arm, emerged from his mouth. A sharp pain in his jaw caused him to fall to the ground!

"Mmm...mmm..."

"You can't even drink Hai Si wine? Alas, this only proves that you are not destined for immortality."

Planck shook his head with feigned regret, then took a matchlock gun from his holster.

Bang--!

Smoke filled the captain's cabin, but just when everyone thought that relying on the hook stone meant certain death, a cloud of black mist enveloped his body. He pulled out the octopus from his body, and his body became as ethereal as the mist.

"Died in less than half an hour? What a piece of trash."

With one hand covering his head and the other pointing at Planck, Gou Shi shouted, "Kill him!"

The black mist instantly condensed into a spear, piercing through Planck's body!

Based on Gou Shi's talent, he is an S-class "two-faced person". First, his ability will create a secondary personality with a lower IQ. After the secondary personality dies, his true personality will reappear and take control of the body.

After the death of his original personality, he can use the Hook Stone to manipulate the black mist. He can make himself ethereal to avoid attacks or manipulate the black mist to kill other strange creatures. Each time he gives a command, the total amount of black mist will be reduced until it is completely exhausted.

"You're not bad."

Planck smashed the spears embedded in his body, and surprisingly, the blood that flowed out was blue.

"An NPC that can't be killed by force? I didn't expect you to be an important person. But then again, you are the captain."

In the world of ghost stories, there are always some creatures that cannot be killed by talents, such as the Black Mountain God and the Golden Ghost, who are big bosses. As long as they die, the plot of the entire ghost story world will collapse. Therefore, we can only find ways to deal with them in the world of ghost stories, and we cannot kill them directly with talents.

However, such damage was enough to seriously injure them, and they certainly wouldn't be able to pose a threat for a period of time.

"It seems you're not going to tell me any more information. Whatever, I'll find out in other ways."

With a gloomy face, Gou Shi walked out of the captain's cabin. He tried his best to conceal his black mist so that the other ghost storytellers wouldn't be able to spot him at a glance. Then he took out the red VIP card.

"The observer seemed to have said that Jiang Ran from Longguo got a black VIP card. Are red and black two different levels? I'm afraid not. If I'm not mistaken, this red card is probably meant to trick me."

But even such a card has other uses.
