Chapter 12 That's How It Is!

"I see!"

The Evil God's right hand wore an expression of sudden realization.

Shen Wei nodded slightly, and then began to answer the Evil God's right hand's second question:

"You asked me if the staff here are really human? I'm not sure about that either. But I guess there's a high probability they are still human, or at least some of them are, no, I should say that at least they still retain human consciousness! Like the staff member disguised as a clown who gave me the flashlight, of course, there are others, like the staff member selling drinks that I haven't seen. He's also likely to be alive, but that's just my guess..."

"As for the staff's identities, I have two guesses. First, they were originally staff members of this Morning Light Amusement Park. They accidentally avoided 'Her' pursuit, slowly became familiar with the rules of the Rule Anomaly, survived, and became NPCs serving the Chosen Ones."

"The second guess is that these staff members disguised as monsters were originally Chosen Ones like us who were selected into the Rule Anomaly. But because their missions failed, they couldn't get out of here and were forced to become NPCs, eking out a living..."

Shen Wei's conclusion made the Evil God's right hand sway from side to side, looking very satisfied.

"You little brat, I suspect you stole my brain. I advise you to keep one eye open when you sleep, otherwise, I'll open your head to have a look..."

Faced with the threat from the Evil God's right hand, Shen Wei was speechless: "Are you sick or something? Why are you suddenly acting crazy?"

Just as the Evil God's right hand and Shen Wei were bickering, subtle footsteps came from the darkness ahead.

"What is it?"

Shen Wei quietly asked his Evil God's right hand.

"It seems… it seems to be a teddy bear, a huge teddy bear holding a sharp hacksaw, but it looks like it's being played by a human..."

The Evil God's right hand mumbled.

Hearing that the teddy bear was being played by a human, Shen Wei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Because the person ahead was likely a staff member, and staff members are not dangerous. He could safely escape the haunted house. Thinking of this, Shen Wei stood up and walked towards the haunted house exit upstairs. But he suddenly thought of a neglected question:

"If the teddy bear holding the hacksaw is a staff member here, then why doesn't he have a flashlight? Why isn't he turning on the flashlight? It's dangerous not to have a flashlight in the dark, even for staff members! Or there's another possibility, that he doesn't have a flashlight at all, that he's not a staff member..."

Thinking of this, Shen Wei felt a chill down his back, and a strong sense of fear arose spontaneously.

"Don't be afraid, I'm a staff member here. There was an emergency just now, and I used the flashlight's strong light function, now the flashlight is out of power. I hope you can escort me to the safe rest area..."

The teddy bear gave off a crisp voice of a young woman.

"Oh, is that so! The flashlight used the strong light function, is it this kind of strong light function?"

After saying that, Shen Wei directly turned on the flashlight's strong light function.

The dazzling yellow beam of light instantly pierced through the huge teddy bear, turning it directly into a cloud of black smoke.

And Shen Wei took the opportunity to pass him and ran towards the haunted house exit upstairs.

"Dear visitor, why don't you trust me? I'm really a staff member of the haunted house..."

The teddy bear's voice suddenly became long and sharp. The sound of pursuit also came from behind Shen Wei.

The Evil God's right hand quietly turned his palm backwards to take a look. A woman with half a body suddenly stretched out from the back of the teddy bear. This woman had disheveled long hair and blood-red eyes. Her lips cracked into a strange arc, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth. This terrifying expression seemed to be frozen on her face, extremely strange. Moreover, this terrifying guy kept repeating to Shen Wei that she was a staff member.

"Dear visitor, wait for me, dear visitor, please wait for me..."

The teddy bear holding the hacksaw kept calling out behind Shen Wei, like summoning a soul, making Shen Wei's mind a mess.

"Be careful, open the umbrella!"

A sharp hacksaw was thrown out by the teddy bear and shot straight at Shen Wei's head. After sensing it, the Evil God's right hand reminded Shen Wei in the first time. Shen Wei took out the Yin-Yang Umbrella from the Ghoul Ring and directly opened it to cover his upper body.

The sharp hacksaw hit the umbrella of the Yin-Yang Umbrella and was directly bounced off and penetrated into the wall.

At this time, Shen Wei was only a dozen meters away from escaping the haunted house exit. But, an accident happened at this time. The strange woman growing on the back half of the teddy bear suddenly let out a shrill scream.

The terrifying sound waves shook Shen Wei's seven orifices until they bled. His whole brain was blank, as if his thinking had stagnated, and he couldn't control his body even more. He could only stand in place, unable to move even a finger.

"It's over, I'm really done this time..."

Shen Wei cried out in his heart.

"You brat, give me all your lifespan, I'll fight this broken toy..."

A hint of fierceness was revealed in the tone of the Evil God's right hand. Hearing his words, Shen Wei's face was uncertain, as if he was considering whether to give all his lifespan to his Evil God's right hand as a last-ditch counterattack.

Seeing the teddy bear with the strange woman growing on its back half getting closer and closer to him, Shen Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was over, let the Evil God's right hand make a big fuss.

Just as the desperate Shen Wei was about to hand over all his lifespan, things suddenly took a turn for the better. One after another semi-transparent children ran out of the darkness.

These children swarmed towards the terrifying teddy bear, some pulling its arms, some pulling its legs, and some going up to cover the strange woman's mouth with their hands. The ghosts of these children forcibly dragged the teddy bear down.

"Move, move..."

Shen Wei's brain kept sending signals to his stiff body. But it seemed that some kind of strange ability was still imprisoning him, making him unable to move in place. Just then, a tender little hand passed through his palm and grabbed his finger! Shen Wei immediately felt his body relax, and he could move again. He looked to his side and saw that it was the little girl he had been carrying to the fourth floor. The little girl was pulling his hand forward.

"Hurry, brother, it will be too late if we are any slower..."

The little girl made an anxious voice.

The gate of light ahead began to become illusory. Shen Wei finally understood why the little girl was so anxious. Fortunately, they were not far from the exit at this time.

Shen Wei grabbed the doorknob of the exit and yanked it hard.
