148: Chapter 148 Wax Figures of Palace Maids

【Blooming Chrysanthemum: Wait, why do I have the feeling that someone has set us up?】

【Blooming Chrysanthemum: After the Beans game is finished, isn't it supposed to be that we can freely choose which ability to restore? Props, skill cards, clothing, attributes.】

【Sky Dumpling: Before the modification, the Beans game was indeed like that. The puzzles were simple, and it helped players restore more of their abilities.】

【Sky Dumpling: But the Matchstick game is difficult, and at night, only clothing can be restored.】

【I Am Not Mentally Ill: So it means... it's completely reversed. The Beans game is actually the one where more people will die at night!】

Everyone in the Management Group was instantly plunged into Fear.

The two dungeons Chen Mo had cleared previously were because he triggered hidden plotlines, entering a world even they were unaware of.

But hidden plotlines always have logic. Like the branches of a tree, as long as one follows the branches, one will eventually reach the trunk.

But the current situation is truly completely out of control.

【Disturbing the Moon: What do we do? With only clothing bonuses, and an arm turned into a wax figure, Many Children Many Blessings won't die tonight, will he? Wuwuwu~】

【Lao Ba: Don't say that. I don't want to see Many Children Many Blessings in the Land of Death!】

【Lao Liu: Heh heh, everyone, what is there to be sad about? If Many Children Many Blessings dies, he can be made into a toy for us. Wouldn't we be able to admire him whenever we want then?】

【Sky Dumpling: Watch your words, Lao Liu. We are Administrators. We should be here to select more excellent players, not to turn them into stronger NPCs.】

【Sky Dumpling: Anyway... I have an item here given to me by the Group Leader to prevent a total party wipe.】

"Damn it, this old fox, the Group Leader, has decided to let Many Children Many Blessings become an Administrator."

"Protecting the player you have your eye on, while incidentally increasing the survival probability of other players, and then in the late stages of the game, letting these people be buried with Many Children Many Blessings?"

"You have your ambition, and I also have my wish!"

Inside a dark space, Lao Liu was gnawing on a mass of wriggling black liquid.

"Heh heh, but Group Leader, you still underestimate me!" A long, slippery tongue extended to lick the crumbs from the corner of his mouth.

"A 90% mortality rate is not something you can just change casually!"

"12 people, only 1.2 can survive."

Back to the main hall.

Jiang Xinyi took out the jade hairpin and explained its use to everyone.

Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of joy.

"Something is better than nothing. Use it quickly!" Little Fatty said excitedly.

Jiang Xinyi asked Su Qing to help her put up her hair. With the jade hairpin inserted horizontally, it became an ancient hairstyle.

It made Little Fatty, who was opposite, blush.

"Why are you blushing?"

"It's nothing, I just think you're too beautiful. You look like a young lady from ancient times like this, much quieter than when your hair is down," Little Fatty said somewhat shyly.

Jiang Xinyi curled her lips.

Immediately, blue light surged from everyone's feet.

The clothing panel was restored.

Boyfriend and Couple Woman changed into Hello Kitty couple outfits and even showed them off to Chen Mo and the others.

They said their clothing was a two-person set. As long as both people wore it, and the genders were one male and one female, they could gain extra bonuses.

Little Fatty was in a steampunk-style leather jacket and pants, the kind with spikes, and even his hairstyle had changed into a spiked cut.

"Don't look at me like that. I also think it's ugly and very non-mainstream, but there's no other way."

"This outfit can give me a 15% Rebellion attribute increase, making me less timid."

Su Qing changed into a Nurse outfit. The sweatpants she was originally wearing disappeared, revealing her fair, slender legs.

Jiang Xinyi was in a green trench coat, and she also had a beret; it was a detective's outfit.

Xu Xiaoman had a baseball uniform and was even wearing a helmet. It felt very similar to a certain game and seemed like it would be very suitable for bumping into ghosts.

Meng Zhou didn't have any changes; he hadn't changed his outfit yet.

Only Lu Chengfeng was in an awkward position.

He had nothing.

He came to Chen Mo and pointed at the profession panel, confused.

"Chen Mo, this system is asking me to choose a profession. Can you see which one I should choose?"

Because Chen Mo said he was a Night Watcher, their six-person team was only missing a shooter.

So, Chen Mo let Lu Chengfeng choose Sharpshooter.

Unexpectedly, after Lu Chengfeng finished his selection, he actually came with an outfit.

It looked like a Flying Tigers outfit, and the attribute bonus was Shooting Mastery +10%.

"So that's how it is. It's to balance the strength of the team."

"Could it be that if attributes can be restored, it also directly lets Lu Chengfeng level up by 6 levels for free?"

"Damn! This kid has explosive luck too," Chen Mo exclaimed.

Without having cleared any dungeons, he could directly improve his survival ability.

"Brother Chen, what should we do next? Should we smash all these wax figures?" Little Fatty already had the Rebellion attribute.

"Go find clues. The wax figures at night might be different, but we need to move as a group of nine. The team cannot be scattered."

"Yes, Captain!" Lu Chengfeng immediately saluted Chen Mo.

After saluting, he showed a confused expression again.

"What the hell, after wearing this clothes, I can't help but treat you as my superior."

"It automatically selects the person in the team who is most like a leader."

Chen Mo put on the doctor's white coat and led everyone outside.

Currently, Chen Mo's strongest outfit was the Magician's uniform, but since Su Qing was present, he couldn't reveal that he had cleared two dungeons.

The group was all dressed in strange clothes, and they weren't uniform, making people seriously suspect that they were preparing to attend a comic convention.

The group first went into Wang Family Village to search around.

The wax figures inside included palace maids, farmers, Daoist children, and so on.

However, unlike Peters Town, Chen Mo didn't find any small notes.

Instead, it was late at night, and staying in a dilapidated house without lights, filled with palace maids, felt a bit creepy.

"Ah!"

Until a scream broke the silence.

Hearing Su Qing's scream, Chen Mo immediately rushed over.

Passing through the encirclement of many palace maid wax figures, he saw Su Qing sitting on the ground, pointing at something in the distance.

Everyone also rushed over immediately.

However, the palace maid wax figures that originally had gaps between them suddenly began to move eerily.

Some moved left, some moved right, and some moved repeatedly forward and backward.

Lu Chengfeng tried to rush over.

However, just as his elbow was about to cross two palace maid wax figures, the adjacent palace maids suddenly accelerated, instantly bouncing him away.

"Officer Lu, are you okay?" Meng Zhou raised his arm to block Lu Chengfeng's back as he flew over, preventing him from falling.

"I'm fine, but Chen Mo and the others..."

Lu Chengfeng pointed at the eerie group of wax figures in front of him.

Those palace maids suddenly stopped moving. The surface of the wax figures, which were originally about 1.7 meters tall, appeared with a halo and began to grow rapidly.

They turned into giant palace maid wax figures over 2 meters tall, blocking in front of everyone.

Their heads touched the ceiling, and they stood side by side, legs together, pressing closely against each other, forming a row.

They had effectively formed a wall of wax figures.

Subsequently, the palace maid wax figure in the very center, wearing purple silk, had her eyelids loosen and blinked.

She opened her mouth and smiled: "You cannot disturb Lord Dong's enjoyment. Just stay here obediently."
