Horror Game Designer

The urn was half-buried in the ground. The living flesh was melded together. Only the handsome faces were exposed. "Ji Gods are scary, but you don't need to worry too much. Normally, the Ji Gods will not leave their lairs. They seem to be guarding something in this town."

"Guard?"

"Yes. They need to stay in one spot to suppress something. As long as you don't actively provoke them, they will not place curses on you." It was hard to tell which ones of the man's words were real and otherwise. He had a light smile on his face. "The Organ Insertion Method is in a way to mimic the Gods in the altars. Using your body as the foundation and your soul to fashion the divinity. Therefore, you need to interact with many divine ghosts. That was why I volunteered to be a night gentleman.

"I didn't have the need to lie to you. We are both testers. Technically, we are allies." The man continued, "You are here to obtain the modification methods. Even if there are other methods, you won't find one that matches you better than the Organ Insertion Modification."

Using the human flesh as the foundation for the divine figurine. This reminded Gao Ming of the ownerless altar given to him by Zhang Mingli. By combining the two, he might be able to create a perfect God.

"Furthermore, you have to have your goals to have infiltrated the Xi Residence. My brothers and I have spent countless nights with Madam Xi. We can answer any questions you have." The man's face was exquisite. However, he had a cunning personality.

"Have you met the teacher at the school?" Gao Ming was there to look for someone. He wanted to check if Zhang Mingli's face was among the night gentlemen.

"Haven't the teachers all died?" The man was shocked, "Dream Break Town once built a large school. It was the tester's only safe zone. However, the previous testers were too greedy. To obtain the modification methods hidden there, they murdered the kindest teachers and students."

Kindness was never rewarded at Dream Break Town.

"Then, have you heard of Zhang Mingli?" When Gao Ming asked that question, the man suddenly shut up. The faces around his head also twitched. They crawled deeper into the urn due to fear.

The man's face paled. After a long time, he whispered, "The name is familiar."

"Your reaction doesn't reflect that."

"Certain things cannot be mentioned, or else the punishment is so severe that probably even Madam Xi can't save me." The blood wine flooded the man's nose.

"Is he that terrifying?" In his memory, Zhang Mingli was the taboo game players' saviour. He had a bad temper but a kind heart.

"You need to stay away from him. He came from the outside and was trapped in the nightmare. He died many years ago. He…" The man's voice became so low that one could barely hear him.

Gao Ming leaned forward with a frown, "He died many years ago?! Then, was the man I met at the school a ghost?"

"Not a ghost. Don't ask any more questions! Don't ask me!" The man's ears twitched. When he heard that Gao Ming's footsteps were less than a meter from him, arms shot out of the urn. The joints overlapped to form a giant mouth to consume Gao Ming, "He is this town's taboo!"

The wine splashed everywhere. The men's handsome faces left the liquid. The heads were not connected to a normal body. The flesh was sewn together to form a net-like organism. It didn't look human. It didn't look like a plant. Considering how it wiggled, it looked more like Taishui.

Gao Ming knew the man had bad intentions. He pulled out the butcher's knife. Ignoring the risk of attracting the butcher, he sliced at the man's neck.

The sharp malice sliced through the man's head. The men's mouths fell open, exposing the herbs and treasures hidden inside their throats.

"Madam Xi sure didn't spare anything to brew this wine!" Gao Ming quickly retreated. He could only see the creature through the copper mirror's reflection. He couldn't win.

The monster couldn't leave the urn. Dragging the urn, its large body crawled towards Gao Ming.

"Stay! Stay! You have the presence of the taboo! You are a taboo!"

The commotion was loud, but it didn't affect the guests outside. They were submerged in joy and celebrated happily. The place burst with revelry.

"This town is just strange and weird!" Gao Ming stumbled out of the room, holding the knife.

Gao Ming slammed the door closed. He could feel a giant force ramming into the door.

"Where did this bastard come from? Why did he bring a weapon to the feast? Doesn't he know that Madam Xi hates them?"

"He has an air of evil. Did the butcher yank his little brother out of his body?"

"Stay away from him. We are blessed. We can't be polluted by him."

"That's right. The evil aura on this bastard is too strong."

The monster from the urn rammed into the door. Gao Ming was lambasted with horrible comments. No one came to help him.

After a significant collision, the copper mirror fell to the ground. He glanced at it. The reflection showed a few bloody faces hanging behind him. They wore red clothes and looked incredibly joyful. They were caught in fanatic happiness. They had a lot of accessories that would bring good fortune.

"No one wants to help me?! When the thing from the wine urn crawls out, all of you will die," Gao Ming gritted his teeth. He held on until he couldn't anymore. At the last moment, he leapt away.

After the door blasted open, the arms made from flesh wrapped around the guests closest to the door. The arms yanked them into the room. The guests didn't even make a sound. The feast continued. Most of the guests still emerged in the joyful atmosphere.

"Every guest at the Tang Residence is connected to Elder Tang through a black thread. Everyone here is overwhelmed by joy and has lost their minds."

The monster in the urn consumed the guests. The seal on it loosened, but Madam Xi didn't show up. This gave Gao Ming the courage to glance at the main hall and Madam Xi's bedroom, which were deep inside the mansion.
