Chapter 522: Chapter 198 The Fourth Kind of Person
Room 311 was clearly well-arranged, with antique wooden chairs and paintings. Oil lamps were used for lighting.
A gray wolf wearing a lady’s nightgown was leaning on a recliner, listing room numbers like an old lady.
These room numbers represented the Abnormalities that harbored great hostility towards humans and had killed special squad members in previous conflicts.
Thanks to this renegade among the Abnormalities, Li Changhe was able to learn about the various small circles within the Abnormalities.
In general, the Abnormal passengers here had changed several times.
Some Abnormalities, due to their connections, banded together.
For example, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and that lion on the fourth floor. They were from the same world, and were originally friends, so they naturally formed a small team. If they knew that Li Changhe had killed the Tin Man, they wouldn’t let it go so easily.
Secondly, there were Abnormalities that couldn’t leave their rooms, like the Magic Mirror. Most of them were objects and couldn’t leave the rooms on their own.
For example, the red dance shoes in room 420. They were a pair of high heels, so naturally, they couldn’t leave the room.
But they had a strong power of psychological distortion, which would tempt women to wear them.
Afterwards, whether the wearer was dead or alive, they would manipulate the wearer to leave the room and engage in combat.
During that time, the wearer’s overall attributes would be greatly increased, and their combat power would be very strong.
Besides, some of the Abnormalities had never opened their doors. Whether it was humans or the Abnormalities themselves, they had received no response.
Even the gray wolf, who had been there for a long time, had no idea what was inside those rooms.
This was concerning. They had to be careful in case they suddenly appeared and caused trouble.
"That’s all I know," the gray wolf finished, apparently ready to see his guests out.
"I actually have one more question," the girl asked softly: "Why did Little Red Riding Hood chase you? In her memory, it’s all about how to cook you up."
"There are many, many stories in the world, but none is as disgusting as the wolf’s story. Wolves are born sinful, and no one cares about a wolf’s name. Wolves should be called villains," the gray wolf grinned, as if laughing.
The sharp teeth shone with a metallic luster, making him appear like a dangerous Abnormality. He had always said he was being chased by Little Red Riding Hood. But...could someone who survived in Little Red Riding Hood’s hands be weak?
His attitude was clear: he wouldn’t offer any help other than the information he had already given.
However, it was good enough to have obtained intelligence.
At this time, Smoke Everywhere found Li Changhe. After all, the cruise ship was only so big.
"Uncle Eight-direction! Did a [Player] die or withdraw from the Task?" He glanced at Little Red Riding Hood next to Li Changhe with a strange look on his face but continued to ask: "Isn’t she your ally?"
He naturally noticed the change in the [Participants] and immediately stopped what he was doing to come and ask.
"She’s actually an official player. After getting in touch with me, she sent the information out. I couldn’t stop it," Li Changhe dumped the blame, so as not to be suspected after the Task was over.
"It’s official?" Smoke Everywhere’s face changed slightly: "Well, once the official side gets the information, they’ll definitely increase their efforts to rescue the public. Then our chances of success will be even greater. As for your side..."
He glanced at Little Red Riding Hood, who had stepped back a few steps, and lowered his voice, "Have you persuaded Little Red Riding Hood? That’s awesome, bro. I almost got into a fight here."
The Abnormalities he encountered either didn’t open the door, or they couldn’t communicate. Some even wanted to fight him.
Seeing that Li Changhe had already cooperated with Little Red Riding Hood, the Abnormality mercenary on the fourth floor, he couldn’t help but admire him.
"Yes, I’ve slept with her," Li Changhe replied solemnly.
"Wh...What?" Smoke Everywhere was stunned, digging at his ear.
"Ahem, never mind." Sensing the gaze from behind, Li Changhe decisively changed the subject, "What about your side? Did you make any contact?"
"Most of the Abnormalities on the second floor are object-types," Smoke Everywhere shook his head, "Basically nothing to talk about."
"He’s not lying," Yun Ting’s voice sounded in Li Changhe’s mind, as she had been staring at Smoke Everywhere.
Li Changhe nodded, arriving at room 308’s door.
"Then let me deal with this one first, and then discuss my thoughts with you."
"Do you need us to come with you?"
"No need, it won’t be long."
Li Changhe replied, knocking on the door. There was a rustling sound from inside, followed by the door opening.
The room was dimly lit, but something could vaguely be seen moving in the darkness.
Someone laughed softly in the dark, "A human? It seems that the ruler of the first floor has changed. What a pity; I was having a good chat with that human. So...are you here to get acquainted with me? I have to say, your Bird Beak Mask reminds me of a lot of interesting things."
His voice was strange, as if someone was pinching his throat.
What he referred to as the ruler of the first floor must have been the Mad Kangaroo.
As Li Changhe entered the room alone, the door slammed shut.
Not surprisingly, an ambiguous laugh sounded from the Bird Beak Mask.
"Do you know why I’m here?"
"It’s not hard to guess. There are three types of humans who come to see me on their own initiative," the other party continued, "First, those who come for information. Second, those who ask for my help. Of course, both require payment. Otherwise, humans who come here will become food for the rat swarm. So there is a third choice: to die here. You..."
"Which one are you?"
With the closing of the room’s door, the surroundings became even darker. However, Li Changhe could clearly feel that something was approaching him from all sides.
Li Changhe knew what it was: swarms of rats. They were eyeing him as a piece of meat, waiting for an order to tear him apart and devour him.
The Abnormality in room 308 was the Hamelin Piper.
Also known as the Magic Flute.
The reason he said Li Changhe’s Bird Beak Mask reminded him of some interesting things was that he also symbolized, to some extent, the origin of the Black Death.
His abilities were to control rat swarms and cause psychic interference. The Mad Kangaroo had once exchanged human corpses for the Piper’s help.
One could say that the Mad Kangaroo had been able to control the situation on the first floor in such a short time largely because of the Hamelin Piper’s psychic interference abilities.
The Hamelin Piper did not get a response but saw an azure flame ignite before him.
The blue flame agitated the dark rat swarm, also illuminating the Hamelin Piper’s appearance.
He was dressed in medieval colored clothes, holding a flute in his hand. At that moment, his face was somewhat stiff as he looked at the figure not far away.
The Bird Beak Mask had turned into a bronze mask burning with blue flames, and the magic outfit had turned into the solid and majestic Mountain Pattern Armor.
He looked like an ancient warrior who had fought his way back from hell to the human world.
The ancient warrior approached with his knife, and the piercing sound emitted from his mask was deafening.
"It’s the fourth kind, here to kill you!"
