Chapter 503: Chapter 179: Boarding the Ship (Part 2)

He was hiding in the crowd with his head down, and yet he was still recognized?

Indeed, a handsome face always stands out.

However, Li Changhe was not particularly alarmed.

Among the [Players], only acquaintances and friends knew his true appearance.

Having [Friends] on the Dream Cruise was clearly a good thing.

At least Li Changhe wouldn’t have to fight alone.

He opened [Friends].

Sure enough, [Earth Knight] was blinking in the list.

"Dude, I see a sneaky-looking guy from far away who reminds me of you. But it can’t be, right? Right?"

"Damn," Li Changhe was silent for a moment before quickly replying, "I knew I felt some creepy, lewd gaze on me. Want to stab me in the back? Keep in mind, when I started stabbing guys in the back, you were only ten years old."

"You’re always ten years old, aren’t you?"

Earth Knight probably felt nauseous and responded sarcastically, "It’s a good thing you’re here; otherwise, I don’t know what to do with myself. Even my Escape Coin has gone dark."

"You’ve already used your Escape Coin?" Li Changhe was stunned. They had just arrived, and he hadn’t done anything yet to use the Escape Coin.

"Don’t be so quick to leave; enjoy yourself. Eat some goji berries."

"Tsk, I came in the last batch and have been on this broken ship for a day. With my abilities, I can’t leave. Look to your left; all these people came with the last batch."

"The last batch... the one that Monitor was sent with? It’s been less than an hour; is there a time difference?" Li Changhe activated his Hawk Eye Magic Eye and looked to the left.

This place seemed to be the interior of the Dream Cruise. From this angle, it looked more like the lobby of a high-class hotel, luxurious and extravagant. It was also incredibly spacious, with the lobby alone being the size of a soccer field.

In the center of the lobby were several long dining tables filled with an abundance of food.

Was this so-called paradise referring to this place? If so, it was quite disappointing.

The lobby was divided into five floors, each with over a dozen iron doors that seemed to lead to the rooms of the Dream Cruise.

He was among the group that had just been transported in, near the entrance of the lobby.

Looking to the left, Li Changhe indeed saw Earth Knight, who was not hiding his face but standing far away with some other people.

Li Changhe also spotted Monitor in the crowd. Monitor looked haggard, and it was unclear what he had been through.

"At least there’s no immediate danger to their lives, and it seems like their activities are not restricted. Which means that as long as they follow certain rules, they can stay safe?" Li Changhe thought.

At that moment, the special squad member in red high heels turned her head 180 degrees and spoke, "The Beast, the Hunter, the Cloud Giant, and the Tin Man haven’t returned. Are they dead?"

"Haha, does that mean there are a few vacant rooms?"

"Will I get new neighbors?"

A few eerie laughter rang out, making the Abnormalities giggle.

Some didn’t say anything but simply left on their own.

It seemed Abnormalities were not united in their actions, which was good news.

Abnormalities appeared uninterested in the civilians nearby.

So it was quite clear that this operation was not their personal choice.

At the very least, it could be inferred that they had brought these civilians here under some form of coercion.

Only the tall scarecrow was waving its arms furiously, as blood and bits of flesh splattered onto the immaculate floor below, evidently furious.

This could be understood, since there was indeed a scarecrow that got along well with the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz.

This must be the scarecrow who was looking for a brain.

Li Changhe’s gaze turned to the man holding a flute, surrounded by hundreds of rats. He couldn’t help laughing mockingly at the frightened civilians.

Then, together with the rats, he walked away, scattering the civilians wherever he went. This was the Hamelin Piper, the Abnormality that killed Liu Tao and the others.

Li Changhe suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and watched the Piper walk away in silence.

Now was not the right time to kill him, with all these other Abnormalities around.

He would have to first memorize his room number and deal with him later.

The Abnormalities passed by the edge of the crowd and headed for their respective rooms.

Among them, the red-robed, knife-wielding Abnormality caught Li Changhe’s attention.

Although she was an Abnormality assumedly from some fairy tales like Little Red Riding Hood, her bloody appearance made many of the civilians retch.

But she gave Li Changhe a very familiar feeling. And through Yun Ting’s perception of her aura, she was unmistakably an Abnormality...

Little Red seemed to have noticed something and looked back.

The moment their eyes met, Little Red’s body jerked, and Li Changhe’s heart skipped a beat.

Even though he could only see the sharp-toothed mask that covered her face under her hood, he couldn’t see her eyes.

But that sense of intimacy built over the years would not be wrong.

She was...Yating!

How could she be here? Wasn’t she supposed to have left the North Shore?

Or was entering the Dream Cruise part of the [Great Wall]’s plan?

Disguising as an Abnormality? What a risky move!

Amidst the turmoil in his mind, Li Changhe took a deep breath, careful not to let any emotions show on his face.

He was just about to ask Yating in [Friends].

But she sent him a message first: "Why are you here? I can’t be distracted at the moment. Meet up with Chen Yu first. After I return to my room, I’ll contact you."

Can’t be distracted, is it to maintain her Abnormality status?

This plan was too risky.

Disguising as an Abnormality and blending in among them.

If there were any errors, wouldn’t she have to face all those Abnormalities?

In fact, Li Changhe had considered this approach at first, trying to gain information from the Abnormalities’ perspective.

But the Abnormality he defeated was the Tin Man. Even if he could mechanically ascend on the spot, he couldn’t disguise as it.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Li Changhe searched for Chen Yu’s nickname [Chen Yu] in [Friends].

Since Yating told him to meet up with Chen Yu, it meant that Chen Yu was also among these civilians.

"This plan of yours is way too risky!"

"You actually managed to get onboard the Dream Cruise?" As Chen Yu suddenly received a message in the crowd and replied in [Friends], "She’s carrying four disguise gears, and you still recognized her? You’ve got quite the skills, man."

"Don’t play dumb with me. This plan couldn’t have been your idea, right? Remember, I know your name!"

"Stop joking, your girlfriend is the one who came up with this plan," Chen Yu replied, "And by the way, I’m a girl. You still want to expose my name, don’t you?"

She was one of the very few people inside the Great Wall who knew about the relationship between Yang Dong and Li Changhe.

Of course, she understood what Li Changhe meant when he said he knew her name. But what use would that threat be to Chen Yu, a girl?

If you dare to cross-dress and sign up, I’ll apply for a [Mirror of Reversal] immediately!
