Bang bang.

The rainstorm shows no signs of stopping and will remain in place until the end of the event.

Dirt mountain road.

A woman in red, with disheveled black hair, completely ignoring the torrential rain, walked towards an abandoned tiled house.

When you arrive in front of the tiled house......

Sou! A kitchen knife was grasped in her hand, and she walked towards the interior of the room on full alert.

Her pupils seemed to have some night vision, and she could see everything in the dark tiled room.

Carefully search all corners of the tiled house, ready to use a kitchen knife to split the enemy in your way.

After completing a full inspection to determine that there is no danger.

She returned to the hall and squatted beside Han Dong, whose neck was slit, and a red lip whispered in her ear:

"It's gone."

The words are finished.

A large amount of mycelium grows from Han Dong's neck and reconnects with his body.

【Head Body Separation Experiment】

On the first night of the incident, Han Dong secretly conducted this 'experiment' in his room - using a sharp knife he bought to cut a small incision into the neck area.

The "Faceless Head" rapidly grows mycelium (tentacles) that connect to wounds and heal quickly.

Of course, such a wound connection is limited to the head and body, and is not feasible for other parts.

This is precisely because Han Dong's real subject is just this "Faceless Head" that occupies 100 weight points.

As for Valen. Nicholas's weak flesh was only a temporary loan.

As long as it doesn't hurt the skull and doesn't hurt the cell mass, Han Dong won't die.

Borrow this feature, along with the collected data and the accidental opening of the 'side event'.

During the third day, Han Dong, who stayed at home, spent a lot of effort to lay out an extremely complicated [bureau].

This round requires a lot of 'gear' to stay together.

The slightest 'gear' is missing, loose, or fails to turn at the moment it should be, and the big picture is wrong.

Among them, the most important 'gear' is [Chen Li, the Evil One].

And what Han Dong didn't expect was that Chen Li's gear was even more special than he imagined...... Chen Li's particularity makes the overall situation more stable.

Then, the most important part of this plan has just been successfully realized.

Han Dong was completely sure that 'Akaman' was an evil spirit, and immediately asked Chen Li to take action.

Chen Li, disguised as an evil spirit, took the initiative to chase after Edward and Monica.

Edward mistakenly thinks that evil spirits have found him.

Edward, who is very familiar with the 'hidden' rules, will inevitably kill the blonde to buy time...... Even if Edward didn't kill him, Chen Li would do it himself.

The reason for this is that the time of death of the blonde Monica coincides with the time of Han Dong's 'suicide'.

Han Dong had already received the message of 'Killing Limit' from Akaman's mouth, and as long as someone in the team died, Akaman would definitely receive the corresponding information.

Therefore, the evil spirit will never have any suspicion about Han Dong's suicide.

…………

The head is back to the body.

Han Dong breathed a sigh of relief and showed a rare smile:

"It's finally come to this!

My guess is correct, evil spirits are indeed restricted...... And the most fundamental hard time limit.

However, this restriction will continue to weaken in the last few hours, and may even leave it unrestricted.

So be it...... We hurried back to the bungalow. ”

Han Dong leaned against the wall and slowly got up.

Prepare to take advantage of the time when the evil spirits cannot harm people to return to the bungalow smoothly, unite the event characters, and start the final plan.

Who knows, Chen Li is standing at the entrance of the bedroom of the current tiled house, stretching her arm forward, pointing to a certain position.

It seems that when she entered the house to find out if the 'evil spirit' existed, she accidentally discovered something.

"Underground Passage!?"

Remove the dilapidated wooden bed that Chen Li was referring to, and lift the carpet at the bottom.

A dark and deep passage is revealed.

"There are seven and a half hours left until the end of the incident...... The only survivors were me and Edward.

The 'harm interval' of evil spirits should not be too short, at least more than three hours.

Chen Li, let's go down and have a look. ”

Gut feeling.

"There may be a windfall down here...... If you don't have anything, it's perfectly too late to return to the bungalow. ”

Time permitting.

Han Dong stepped on the damp stairs, illuminated by the light of a flashlight, and went to the mysterious cellar that he accidentally discovered.

"Let me go ahead."

During the downward journey, Chen Li took the initiative to walk in front of Han Dong with a kitchen knife to avoid any danger in the cellar...... There is a feeling of 'protector'.

Moss, rats, insects, rancid smell.

When Han Dong stepped down the last step of the ladder, a familiar system voice came:

『Discover the Hidden Area - [Corrupt Cellar]』

"Please search for clues in this area to open the corresponding event...... The time limit is 15 minutes.'"

"Another windfall!"

The corners of Han Dong's mouth went up, revealing an excited smile.

The first 'side event' that was activated by talking to the event person, this time it was to discover the hidden area. What will be the specific gain, you have to find clues.

It takes about ten minutes to complete a detailed exploration of the cellar.

In a corner of the wall where there were traces of loose soil, dig up a notebook.

The scribbled Kyushu script on it records the events of 'the plague ravaged and led to the forced relocation of local tourist attractions, and the area of [Wang Zigang] turned into a barren mountain range. ’

"The scenic spots were relocated, and all the farmhouses were abandoned, and even the villages and farmhouses were all abandoned...... So there was a plague here? ”

Chen Li on the side said: "My brother and I are not residents of Wang Zigang, we only know that this area has been desolate due to the outbreak of plague, so we deliberately found an abandoned farmhouse building, pretending to live here and luring Wang Po and his wife over. ”

"Hmmm......"

Han Dong continued to read the diary.

In the back, there is an account of the internal events of this family of five - the family slowly waited to die due to the plague, and when they finished flipping through it, a family photo fell out.

『Hidden Event Activated - [House of the Plague]』

Requirements: Kill the plague alive ×5

Reward: One Destiny item (matches the subject's level).

As soon as the system prompt ended...... The soil in the cellar area loosened in a large area, and the collapsed arms full of small holes stretched out of the soil and slowly crawled out of the ground.

Five plague creatures crawled out of the ground, exactly corresponding to the five in the family photo.

They have been dead for a long time, reappearing through the power of the plague and the 'space of destiny', and they do not belong to the category of humans, but are nothing more than a group of unconscious lifeforms driven by fungi.

Han Dong ...... Leave these guys to me. ”

"Hmm."

Han Dong's current physical state is not able to fight against these plague individuals, not to mention whether he will be killed or not, once he is infected, it will be very troublesome.

Of course, Han Dong will not watch the whole play.

The backpack contains 'special items' purchased in the countryside before the event starts.

Two bottles of low-quality liquor with extremely high alcohol content and low price, and several cheap plastic lighters.
