Arriving in an S-class world again after several months, it would be impossible for Zhuge Shensuan not to be nervous at all. The main battlefields of S-class ghost storytellers are almost all in A-class or B-class ghost story worlds. These worlds, which are more numerous and less difficult, are more suitable for their games.
creak—
Zhuge Shensuan closed his eyes tightly, relaxed his expression, and made himself look like he was fast asleep. He could hear the footsteps approaching him, and something had already come to his bedside.
Then a cold object approached his ear and said, "There are signs of struggle on the bed. You were actually awake a long time ago!"
Zhuge Shensuan restrained himself from making any moves. His hands and feet were already bound, and even if he suddenly attacked, it would only hasten his death. However, he couldn't do nothing, so while pretending to be asleep, he activated his talent!
[S-Rank Talent: Precise Prediction]
[Effect: The user can actively activate this ability and enter a ten-second "prediction" state. If fatal damage is received during this state, the damage will be reflected and the user will be unharmed. Afterward, this ability will enter a one-hour cooldown period. If no fatal damage is received after ten seconds, this ability will enter a ten-hour cooldown period.]
Did you predict my prediction, or did I predict yours?
Zhuge Shensuan has never changed his talent, firstly because he is already very proficient in this ability, and secondly because he has not yet found a new talent that satisfies him.
After a long while, no attack came; instead, a blanket was placed over Zhuge Shensuan.
"A good patient is one who sleeps peacefully..."
The hoarse voice faded into the distance until the sound of a door closing rang out.
Phew—that thing was indeed bluffing him, but his accurate prediction failed. Zhuge Shensuan's talent will enter a ten-hour cooldown period, which means that during this time, every step he takes must be flawless!
But the problem is, how do we get rid of these constraints?
If he remains trapped in bed, he won't be able to leave the room at all, let alone complete the game.
Zhuge Shensuan tried to break free again, but found that the things binding his hands and feet seemed to have loosened a bit. What was going on?
All that has changed seems to be the addition of a blanket, so it must be this blanket affecting the restraints... Right, it's the temperature!
So all you need to do is lie here and wait for the restraints to dissolve on their own. The blanket won't provide much heat, so the temperature needed to dissolve the restraints won't be too high either.
After all, the purpose of a blanket is only to keep warm; ultimately, it's the individual's own body heat that's used.
creak—
"hello."
The nurse pushed open the door and then froze for a moment, because the patient in front of her was not only not sleeping obediently, but was even greeting her with a smirk, and there was even a woman next to her!
"You're breaking hospital rules! Patients should be sleeping when it's time!"
She drew a rusty dagger from her waist, seemingly ready to pounce at any moment!
Jiang Ran looked the girl up and down. Her nurse uniform was covered in dust and blood and had many tears. Her skin color was an abnormal gray, similar to that of a zombie. Some of the wounds even revealed bone.
"Who are you saying should go to sleep obediently?"
Gwen glared at her fiercely. From Jiang Ran's perspective, it even looked a little cute, but to the nurse, it was absolutely terrifying!
A near-god-level aura?! What did she, a little weirdo, do to deserve this?!
"I...I said I want to go to sleep obediently!"
The nurse put away the dagger and turned to run away!
"Wait, did I say you could leave?"
Gwen flicked her finger, and a blue fluorescent thread instantly wrapped around the nurse's ankle, pulling her back abruptly!
Oh? It seems Gwen has also acquired some new abilities after advancing to the [Near God] level.
The nurse was on the verge of tears: "Sister! I'm just following the rules. The hospital needs to do rounds at this time! If the patient moves around, they'll dock our pay!"
"Salaries? Who pays your salaries?"
“Of course it’s the hospital…” The nurse paused again, looking blankly at the dilapidated ward around her, then covered her head, “This…this isn’t the original hospital!”
Gwen was puzzled. How could a nurse know clearly that she was a supernatural being, yet feel uncomfortable in a hospital that had become a bizarre environment? What kind of world would she see?
"I want to go back! I want to go back! Otherwise, the head nurse will kill me!"
The nurse suddenly rushed toward the door, but how could she possibly break free from Gwen's silk threads? With this sudden exertion, the silk threads severed her ankle!
Even so, she still insisted on crawling towards the door!
Gwen leaped lightly and stood in front of her.
Jiang Ran's voice came from behind: "Who is this head nurse you're talking about? Where is she?"
"I don't know! I don't know! But I have to find her! Otherwise... otherwise I'll die!"
"Look at you, you're already dead. If you don't know where the head nurse you're talking about is, how are you going to find her?"
"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know anything!"
The nurse slammed her head against the floor. Jiang Ran sighed slightly. It seemed that this person's mind had completely collapsed, and it was obviously unrealistic to try to get anything out of her.
"Fine, let's give her a quick death. Gwen, we'll go out and find her ourselves."
The dark corridor, occasionally punctuated by strange noises, was ruthlessly shattered by Gwen, who skipped and hopped ahead of him.
Jiang Ran's style is completely different from other ghost story tellers. While others are careful in everything they do, afraid of disturbing the nurse, he simply kills her.
Judging from his gait and relaxed demeanor, you'd think he was on vacation.
"drink!"
Zhuge Shensuan finally broke free from his restraints and got out of bed. He took off his sunglasses and put them in his pocket. The environment was already dark, and it became even darker after he put on the sunglasses.
Too much time was wasted in bed, but I'm sure others did too. Some people probably couldn't hold on and didn't even get past the first nurse, but the number shouldn't be too many, since there were hints available.
Zhuge Shensuan slowly walked out of the ward, gently closed the door, and tried to keep the noise down. The hospital was very quiet at night, and Zhuge Shensuan dared not be reckless. The nurse might not have left yet, and if she caught him, he would be finished. So he had to be extra careful!
