Chapter 414: Chapter 91

After some thought, Li Changhe decided to set up traps in the ghost stories on the first floor.

This Instance was somewhat complicated, and there were not many abnormalities he could restrain and utilize, so it was better to keep it as a contingency plan.

If a conflict arises with some [Players], this would serve as a safety net.

If luck was on his side, this could potentially reveal or even seriously injure or kill a player.

"The chances of them falling into the trap are slim, under normal circumstances. Even if a player is thrown into the room by the nurse, as long as they calm down, they can easily break through the trap you’ve set up." Yun Ting commented, observing Li Changhe’s setup.

Indeed, it is challenging to ensnare [Players], especially those in tasks, as they tend to be cautious.

This trap requires the opposing party to be caught by the nurse and placed in a designated room. Although there are several traps set up, they need to be triggered. If the opponents know the nurse’s ability, they can make sure to stay away from the nurse and leave the first floor or enter the room before the nurse.

In this case, Li Changhe’s setup would be wasted.

"Don’t worry, I don’t expect them to calmly deal with the situation. If the traps work, great, otherwise they’ll at least make things difficult for the opponents. It’s just an insurance policy." Li Changhe replied, heading up the stairs.

Currently the five [Players] are divided into two groups, with the cowboy and the puppet master in one of the buildings, where gunshots had been heard. It remains to be seen whether they were fighting the abnormality or having conflicts with each other.

As for the two suspicious individuals, Li Changhe didn’t want to make contact just yet.

First, he needed to check if the vagabond and the masked woman had any issues.

In comparison to the ’Disappearing Floor’ and the ’Sounding Operating Table’ in building four,

The ghost stories in this building are quite vague.

According to the information Li Changhe obtained online and from the peddler, there were three ghost stories in this building: ’Bells Ringing at Night,’ ’Nurse Patrolling the Rooms,’ and ’The Invisible Child.’

Li Changhe had already experienced the first two.

As for the third ghost story,

It was said to originate from a female patient who suffered from mental illnesses after the accidental death of her young child.

She hallucinated that her child was still with her, claiming she could hear the child’s calls and cries. The woman’s husband had no choice but to send her to the sanatorium for treatment.

However, over time, the other patients at the sanatorium began to hear the child’s sobbing as well.

As if the woman’s child was genuinely alive, lingering by her side.

Li Changhe wasn’t sure how outsiders interpreted this, but the sanatorium’s higher-ups were definitely concerned.

This was the earliest ghost story at the sanatorium.

At that time, it attracted a group of internet celebrities and live-streamers who wanted to explore the sanatorium for online views.

Li Changhe managed to find the original video for this.

Although the atmosphere in the video was well portrayed, there were no actual abnormal events, and it appeared to be pure sensationalism, with no reference value.

In retrospect, as the sanatorium is the [Players’] property, they likely wanted to avoid drawing attention.

After all, if there were genuinely anything suspicious, it would have been eradicated by officials by now.

Perhaps some of those live-streamers were actually part of the [Players], using the videos to mislead outsiders and better conceal their activities.

"If we go by the ghost story, and the child is a ghost, as long as we don’t hand over the test papers or anything, it shouldn’t turn hostile against us."

"But first, we need to communicate with it."

Li Changhe stepped out of the stairwell to check, "Let’s see-"

"Huh?"

Stepping onto the floor, it didn’t feel as solid as he expected. Instead, it was somewhat soft and springy.

...

Meanwhile, deep in the corridor,

The vagabond, wearing a tank top, swung his golf club forcefully at a blurry figure before him.

This was his favorite weapon, [Head-splitting Golf].

[Type: Weapon]

[Quality: Rare]

[Effect 1: Strengthen Headshot Damage]

[Effect 2: Strengthen Damage Output on Human Units]

[Note 1: War God Joel’s Golf Club]

[Note 2: Even though Joel saved her; she just had to kill Joel. Spit!]

The powerful weapon effect triggered, and the figure’s head was instantly blown apart.

However, the vagabond did not show any joy but instead watched the shadow’s corpse warily.

Only after the corpse melted into the ground did he relax.

He looked down the corner of the hallway where the masked woman stood.

Neither approached the other, as they were still mutually cautious.

"You’re very cautious. Look at the time, and you’re still on guard against me?" The vagabond smirked.

"Sir, we young people value our lives highly." The masked woman replied crisply, "There are too many problems in this sanatorium. I cannot be sure if you are ’one of them.’"

"If I were ’one of them,’ I wouldn’t enter this spooky place."

"Then I would ask you to use the [Escape Coin], sir." The masked woman shook her head, "Under these circumstances, I won’t approach you alone."

This was an inevitable outcome.

Upon understanding more about the sanatorium, the [Players] had discovered its peculiarities.

Someone had deliberately set up these abnormalities.

This resulted in an increasingly complex chain of suspicions among them.

The enemy may very well be hiding among them.

(Please give some suggestions, everyone, my head is really hurting.)
