Her Talent for Courting Death Has Always Been Impressive - Chapter 39 Part 1

Chapter 39: Solo Flight is Impossible

Actually, Yang Buqi can’t be blamed for being naive.

Although he had been here several times, he always went straight to Xu Turan’s room and, out of politeness, never wandered around—he wasn’t really clear about the detailed structure of this house.

“…Anyway, let’s go out and check the situation first.” Yang Buqi remained silent for a few seconds, found his voice again, picked up some items from the ground and put them in his pocket. He then peeled off the rules paper stuck on the door panel and, after leaving the room, re-pasted it on the outside of the door.

Following Yang Buqi’s action, identical rules papers appeared outside almost all the rooms. He glanced at the content on the paper again and turned to Xu Turan: “Assuming we get separated, you can write your location and status on this paper. The content will be synchronized to other papers, so we can keep track of the situation in real-time.”

“However, note that this thing can only synchronize when it’s pasted—don’t tear it off randomly.”

Yang Buqi mumbled on, thought for a moment, and added: “Of course, it’s best if we don’t get separated.”

In the domain, being alone was already an extremely dangerous thing, let alone their team having a fragile fake omniscient and a low-level chaos-prone newcomer…

Yet each of them was more reckless than the other. No need to mention Xu Turan, even Pu Han, a fragile one, could come here to throw his life away just because of one word from his wife, which he hadn’t expected…

It’s a pity he didn’t bring safety ropes.

As Yang Buqi led the two exploring along the corridor, he kept thinking with a tense face that if he had known earlier, he would have brought two safety ropes, tied one on each side of his belt, which would have saved him from being so worried now…

“Strange.” Xu Turan called out softly after walking out of the room.

Yang Buqi turned his head alertly, only to see her holding onto the railing looking down at the first floor, her face full of confusion: “Why is their atmosphere so good?”

At first, Yang Buqi didn’t understand what she was talking about, but after leaning over to take a look, he understood—all the photos that Xu Turan had moved outside the room earlier had already “hatched,” and several female ghosts were leisurely crawling on the first floor and the stairs.

Yes, leisurely—every one of them was crawling in such a relaxed posture that it could be described as a casual stroll.

“This state is indeed not quite right.” Yang Buqi also frowned. He had personally seen Xu Turan release female ghosts from photos before. Although those female ghosts didn’t show aggression towards people, they were particularly keen on mutually slaughtering each other. As long as they stayed in the same space, they would definitely start fighting within 3 seconds, and had never appeared in such a peaceful state.

His first reaction was that Xu Turan’s passive chaos effect had lost its effect, but on second thought, it wasn’t right—if so, they should have launched attacks on the humans present.

“This? It’s probably a stacking effect,” Pu Han also came over to take a look, his tone calm. “Didn’t I say that Haunted House No. 71 also has a passive chaos skill? But unlike Xu Turan, it will make the abominations within its control range fall into a serene state…”

The ones in Xu Turan’s room were all Lamp level, and they were closer to Xu Turan at the time, so they were more deeply influenced by her; but these female ghosts are currently active within the coverage area of Haunted House No. 71’s main body, and their level is the lowest, not even reaching Firefly level, so naturally they are more influenced by Haunted House No. 71.

“From this perspective, this haunted house seems quite friendly to its own kind,” Xu Turan said. “Yang Buqi also mentioned earlier that it can help abominations recover…”

Her instant camera was saved this way. In a sense, this haunted house could be considered their recreating parent.

Pu Han smiled at her without saying anything. The next second, the scene in the hall suddenly changed—a female ghost that was stretching lazily in the corner suddenly widened her eyes, let out a shrill scream, and stretched out her claws desperately trying to crawl out. However, after crawling a few steps, as if being dragged by something, she was forcefully pulled back.

Following that, her body began to shrivel and wither, until finally, it turned into a thin sheet, completely collapsed on the ground, and quickly turned into a pile of powder.

Xu Turan: …

Because she was still carrying the “Shield of Ignorance,” she couldn’t see the main body of Haunted House No. 71, nor could she see what was entangled on that female ghost, devouring her in an instant; but just guessing, she could figure it out.

Pu Han’s voice sounded again, as if sighing: “People are very friendly to pigs in pig farms too—look at them, how many die of natural causes?”

Xu Turan: ……

I’m sorry, I was too naive.

Beside them, Yang Buqi began to urge quietly, planning to explore the rooms on the second floor first. Xu Turan responded, thought for a moment, then took out a small medicine bottle from her body, poured out several small pills from it, and scattered them handful by handful towards where the female ghosts were.

Just looking at that action, it could be said to be full of the elegance of scattering flower petals and the extravagance of throwing money. Yang Buqi’s eyebrows twitched at the sight, hesitated for a moment, but still asked: “What are you doing?”

“Adding some spice for them.” Xu Turan said as she put away the medicine bottle and dusted off her hands. She then turned and entered the bedroom behind her.

Infinite Vitamin Bottle—this was one of the supernatural items she had purchased in this batch. Although it looked like a dead object, its essence was a parasitic type of abomination, and it had a war tendency.

The inside of this medicine bottle would infinitely proliferate special pills, which had vitality and could seek hosts to parasitize on their own, including humans and other abominations. After being parasitized, the host would become increasingly irritable and aggressive, fond of fighting and killing, and be incited to hunt other lives, and the act of hunting would in turn nourish the bottle itself—it could be said to be quite a cunning abomination.

However, under the influence of Xu Turan’s single chaos effect, it would only treat its own pills as stones and throw them out. It couldn’t cause much damage, just more troublesome to clean up.

As for how it would perform under the stacked effects of Xu Turan and Haunted House No. 71, Xu Turan didn’t actually know. But since there was an opportunity, she might as well try it, it didn’t cost anything—if it worked, that would be best; if not, it wouldn’t affect her.
