Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 145 - 142: No.1 Mansion Surrounded (Bonus Chapter)
Muscles kept bursting forth, causing her clothes to rip apart. Her hands were constantly mutating, stretching out, resembling some grotesque, twisted monster, endlessly growing and expanding.
Her body was also changing, with her legs continuously mutating, as well as her back and stomach.
The room was filled only with the continual crackling sounds of muscle and bone growing.
She painfully tried to open her mouth to call for help, but instead, a constant stream of spider silk poured out.
The spider silk was like a gushing white spring, surging upwards and then quickly falling back down, soon engulfing her.
The next day.
Yuze stopped at her door: "Little Tactician, time to eat!"
Despite knocking on the door for a long time, there was no response from inside.
He frowned slightly and was just about to push the door open when Joyce walked over: "What are you doing?"
Yuze shrugged: "Calling her to eat."
Joyce stood protectively in front of the door: "You boys, can you be a bit more considerate? Josh is a girl. A girl’s room isn’t like a boy’s room, where you can just enter as you please."
Yuze touched his nose. He really hadn’t thought of Josh as a girl.
Just a minor little rascal, mischievous to the extreme.
Joyce patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, she was trained by Ma Qi for a week straight. Let her sleep in, she’ll come downstairs on her own when she wakes up."
"Alright then." Yuze didn’t think much more about it and went downstairs to put the freshly bought food in the kitchen, telling the auntie: "These beef and pineapples, stir-fry them into cumin pineapple beef. Cook the prawns into porridge, and these chicken breasts and vegetables, make a fresh salad, and when Josh comes down, serve them to her. Oh, and juice the carrots, add some honey, and make sure she drinks it. Don’t let her sneak it to Ermao."
Upon hearing this, Ermao ran over, barking wildly at Yuze and baring its teeth in protest.
Yuze flicked it on the head: "You’re heavier than she is. What’s wrong with her eating a bit more? If you dare eat the food she gives you, I’ll smack your head to pieces."
Ermao, receiving a warning look from Yuze, instantly quieted down. It whimpered and turned its head away, refusing to be touched, then turned and slumped back to its spot, sticking its butt towards Yuze.
The light in the logout room on the third floor went out, meaning Rob and the others had returned. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the sound of Rob clattering down the stairs could be heard.
Yuze twitched his mouth as Rob lunged at him enthusiastically, giving him a solid embrace: "Captain! I missed you so much! It’s been a while, and you’re still as handsome and dashing as ever~"
Yuze disdainfully pulled him off: "Get lost."
The group was used to finishing a dungeon and then heading to a restaurant for a meal.
Yushi blinked, asking softly: "Josh, where is she? Come on down, let’s eat."
Yuze: "No need to call her. She just finished being trained by Ma Qi yesterday and hasn’t woken up yet."
Rob clicked his tongue: "Ma Qi’s so ruthless! Even such a small child isn’t spared!"
Everyone had been through Ma Qi’s training, so they knew just how terrifying his extra training could be.
The group tacitly agreed not to call Josh and went out to a restaurant.
In the evening, the group had just returned after playing, only to find the entire Mysterious Guild enveloped in a white misty haze.
Several teammates leaned haphazardly against Yuze: "Captain... where did you take us?"
"Hiccup... this isn’t the way home, I’m going to report the captain."
"Home, captain, hiccup..."
Yuze was momentarily stunned, then realized that this vast white expanse was undeniably the Mysterious Guild!
The entire guild building looked as though it was draped in a layer of white cloth, or covered by a layer of flowing white liquid.
Inside, there wasn’t a single stir, almost as if time had stopped.
He threw aside the disoriented teammates and rushed into the mansion.
Suddenly, a cold silvery light flashed by, causing a sharp pain beneath his eye, and when he reached up, he felt blood.
It was spider silk.
In the moonlight, the silk glinted coldly, sharp as blades.
Josh?
Yuze frowned slightly, activating his spiritual power to perceive his surroundings.
After probing for a bit, he couldn’t help but laugh in frustration.
This gifted little bastard.
He turned to his teammates: "You guys stay here and don’t move, don’t touch the spider silk, I’m going in to take a look."
In response, he was met with the steady snoring of teammates piled up in a haphazard stack by the roadside.
Yuze: "..."
He turned and entered the guild, carefully avoiding the strands of silk, leaping up to stand on the balcony of Josh’s room.
The spider silk here was especially dense.
Nearly impenetrable.
He paused only for a moment before releasing his spiritual power, merging with his Spiritual Body.
Josh was his Master An, capable of soothing and repairing his Spiritual Sea, but he couldn’t repair hers, only offer some comfort.
Spiritual Power Users are divided into Master An and Strong Attacker types; Master An’s Spiritual Sea is calm and tranquil, generally without noticeable aggression, whereas Strong Attackers exhibit very strong and violent aggression.
There had never been a case of Master An experiencing a spiritual power outburst like Josh’s.
If it weren’t for the fact that he had already paired with Josh and had been soothed by her, he would have suspected that she wasn’t Master An but a Strong Attacker.
Clearly, the current situation was due to Josh’s sudden surge in spiritual power causing her Spiritual Body to lose control.
When the Spiritual Body loses control, it takes over the body, or in simpler terms, she loses her sanity and becomes an animal in a Beastification state.
Typically, each Strong Attacker goes through this stage, their first Beastification awakening, awakening their spiritual power attack.
Yuze’s first awakening was at the age of 18, transforming into a massive Maine Coon cat, locked in a room, and it took a week to regain his sanity.
Because after awakening, the first Beastification leaves one feeling very insecure, easily agitated, losing control, and attacking people aimlessly, so being locked in a room for a week is the best way to get through that period.
"Josh, it’s me, I’m coming in?" Even though he knew she might not have any self-awareness now, he still spoke up to remind her, so as not to scare her in her beast form.
There was a slight movement inside.
As soon as Yuze peeked through the window, he saw a large furry pink and white spider hanging upside down in the corner of the ceiling on a web, staring at him cautiously yet innocently with big eyes.
He hurriedly released his spiritual power: "Come here."
Having paired with him, Beastification state Josh would follow her animal instincts, considering him family.
The little spider quickly crawled down the web to him, pouncing and pinning him to the ground, with all eight legs thoroughly nailing him down, its furry pink and white head continuously snuggling into his embrace.
Yuze comfortingly patted the little one’s head, "Don’t be scared, don’t be scared."
The little one wrapped not only itself but also him in the spider web.
Yuze chuckled, pinning down her busy front legs: "What are you doing?"
The little one didn’t understand anything, rapidly spinning out silk, wrapping the two together.
Yuze had no choice but to let her continue wrapping them together.
This was a sign of insecurity in the Beastification state; she was very frightened.
