I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot-Chapter 496 - 11.22 First Green Star - Haunted Asylum (11)

Haunted Asylum, Second Floor.

A few hours ago...

After splitting up with the female pairing, Meng Lan and Sui Rou, Han Ya held the blind Professor and escorted him towards the second floor. He helped him climb up the stairs and support An Yuan from behind until they finally reached the second floor.

The expected wave of mob monsters didn't come but there is an eerie silence within the whole second floor. As soon as they reached the second floor, Han Ya, who could see things other humans couldn't frown slightly. No one knew if it was because of something unwanted or something that just pissed him off. As a former undead general, he could see ghostly qi which ghosts and monsters emit. It had similar energy as his black mist yet thinner and weaker.

Under his gaze, he could see that the whole hallway and all the doors on this floor were emitting strong ghosts. This could only mean that there are indeed lots of apparitions on this floor. What made him frown is that he could believe how useless these low-type soldiers are. As a general, he had led tons of powerful and disciplined ghost soldiers. Seeing how disorientated and knowing they had run away from a human being who is supposed to be their prey made him unhappy.

Han Ya's thoughts, 'These useless shits! There are more than hundreds of you and you can't even defeat a human player. Tsk! I'm going to clean it all up!'

He was about to lift up his spear to start killing when suddenly his right hand which held An Yuan's hand was pulled back. He turned around and saw the serious expression on the professor's face and under his gaze he felt that this human is indeed adorable.

Han Ya asked with a gentle yet hoarse voice, "What's wrong, A'Yuan?"

"There... There are a lot of monsters here. My virtual map can point out their exact locations. There should be at least 300 or more monsters here. It would be bad if we got surrounded." said An Yuan.

He is still trembling to see how dense the red dots in his virtual map are.

"It's okay. I'm here. But just in case use a defensive talisman for both physical and non-physical attacks. There should be some which we bought just now." aid Han Ya.

An Yuan was silent for a moment before pasting defensive talismans on Han Ya's chest and back. They had no money for armor. Though the effects of the talismans are limited at this moment this is what they could do. They are poor players after all.

Han Ya watched as An Yuan did the same to himself. But upon checking, Han Ya still feels that this person's protection is extremely lacking unfortunately his wealth was still in his place. He could only get it when they got out of this movie.

"A'Yuan, don't get angry, okay? I need to do something for you. Can you tilt your head for a moment?" said Han Ya.

With a confused expression on Professor An Yuan's face, he still followed the request and tilted his head, revealing a thin and white neck that looked so delicious for Han Ya to eat. The latter couldn't help but unconsciously gulp at that sight. He is regretting his words for a bit now.

An Yuan asked if he doesn't have any guard towards Han Ya at all and exposed his neck like that for him to see.

"What are you going to do, Xiao Ya?" asked An Yuan.

Seeing the Innocent look on An Yuan's face, Han Ya felt like a bad person who wanted to take advantage of such a cutie. He held the latter's shoulders and lowered his head towards the exposed white neck. He licked the neck a bit and felt it tremble under his touch. His eyes turned red trying to hold back something but he didn't allow himself to lose control. He only lightly kissed An Yuan's neck and shared some of his qi with him.

After a while, An Yuan felt extreme coldness crawling slowly on his neck. Without him seeing what was happening, light gray clusters of clouds appeared in the area where Han Ya just kissed him. It's like an exquisite tattoo of clouds spreading from the left side of his neck. A marking of clouds that looks more like a light gray mist.

Seeing his mark on An Yuan, Han Ya had a proud smile on his lips. He gently caresses the cheeks of the stunned An Yuan, there is even a light blush on those smooth cheeks of his.

With an embarrassed expression on his face Professor An Yuan currently looks like a ripe tomato, "Wh-W-What did y-you do!!?"

"Heh~ It's nothing. I've just left a protection buff on you. It would at least scare low-tier mob characters into approaching you. Get ready. We need to get ready to engage in the battle. I will leave my back to you, A'Yuan," said Han Ya.

An Yuan said, "I will definitely protect your back, Xiao Ya."

The two then started fighting on the second floor. The ghosts and monsters slowly poured out of the rooms in tides. With Han Ya in front, An Yuan would help him throw some talismans to support him. Sometimes some ghosts would turn into ashes after a talisman hit them, there would also be some fireballs and lightning flying here and there whenever An Yuan used the talismans Hei Anjing had gifted to them.

The rapport between them was not bad especially since Han Ya is an experienced fighter and able to adjust to An Yuan's level. The latter is not bad at all, he could predict a few moves ahead of time and plan before something happens. Obviously calculating everything in the formula of how the situation would go.

Surrounded by tons of enemies on all sides, Han Ya and An Yuan were fighting until they reached the stairs towards the third floor. The lights of this floor are quite old as well and the atmosphere in the corridors was eerie as the shadows were everywhere moving in accordance to the light source.

Within that shadow, an anomaly was unknown to them. It was Sui Rou, a veteran player who was waiting for the opportunity to hit on them. But sadly the vigilance of Han Ya is too high and there is hardly an opening.

Her little wolf manager, Gou, was quite shocked as well. After all, this player named Han Ya is too skilled to be considered a newbie.

[This player is quite strong. He is too powerful and even had to protect a blind teammate. Despite having a burden his capabilities are too solid. Rourou let's randomize the main mission. Your current one cannot be achieved.]

Sui Rou didn't reply right away. She was observing the pair who were about to finish fighting 300 mob monsters when she took a gamble and attacked An Yuan from the back.

Her ambush was on spot but it was quite bad as Han Ya immediately turned around before her blade touched An Yuan's neck. An inch away is a silver blade about to touch the professor's neck when suddenly a black mist from the tattoo had moved and protected An Yuan's vitals.

An Yuan was startled and screamed and almost fell to the ground.

GAAH!

Han Ya had caught An Yuan as soon as he saw his situation. He didn't even forget to stab the being that tried to kill his A'Yuan. The sound of someone groaning painfully was heard.

Argh!

Then An Yuan and Han Ya watched as a thick shadow moved fast and ran up the stairs running away from them. Few droplets of blood were left behind, obviously, the being who tried to kill the professor just now is a human being. In short, a player.

An Yuan asked, "A woman's voice? The one who attacked me is a woman?"

"Maybe. But the whole figure is covered in darkness and I couldn't even see the face. Not sure whether it is a male or a female." said Han Ya.

An Yuan asked, "Are we going now?"

"Rest for a bit. Your legs are trembling already. Take a nap first. I will protect you, don't worry." said Han Ya, his voice is quite mellow as if coaxing him.

They both lay on the floor and lean on the wall near the stairway towards the third floor. An Yuan's head fell on Han Ya's shoulder. He closed his eyes and took a nap as he was told to. But their napping time had no luxury, unlike Hei Anjing who got a room prepared for them.

They were different people after all. Hei Anjing is a being not restricted by the world's heavenly laws of this star while the other pair is the most beloved children of the heavens. Their lives are still under the control of the others.

Third Floor, Haunted Asylum.

Sui Rou who had failed to kill An Yuan was now wounded. She was shocked when her blade was stopped by the black mist that comes out from the tattoo on the professor's neck. It was unexpected and no one would think something like that would appear on a newbie's neck. That is marking that only TOP players or General Type Monsters would give their prey. It is a marking that would allow them to locate the target that received the marking. Monster markings are shades of gray to black. The Player's markings are shades of color.

"I didn't see wrong didn't I, Manager Gou?" asked Sui Rou who had left the shadows as she leaned on the wall on the third floor while wanting. Her right hand was covering her stabbed wound right on her shoulder. This is a wound from one attack from Han Ya when she tried to assassinate An Yuan.

Pants... Pants...

[Rourou you saw it right. That's a monster mark. But that's impossible, he didn't have it before we split up with them!]

Sui Rou pulled out some bandages from her bag and treated her shoulder. The wound was quite deep and one could see how much power was packed in each stab Han Ya could do. She bites her lips as she treats the wound. There are still some effects of healing orbs on her but even then the wound is healing slower than it's supposed to be.

Without them noticing a black mist was corroding her flesh making her wound wider and deeper, it wasn't noticeable as the effects of healing orb clashed with it.

"Manager Gou, give me another healing orb. Another mid-tier or a high-tier one, this wound is too weird; it's expanding on its own."

[This wound is not ordinary. There's a curse debuff in it. A rotting debuff. You just can't notice it as the effects of the last healing orb are still there. Must be something his weapon had gotten from killing too many undead among the mob NPCs that attacked them. I will also buy holy water for you. Use it to clean the wounds before using other healing orbs.]

NODS~

Black Widow could only nod her head as the pain was too much. Even though she is used to getting wounded, this kind of wound is extremely rare. Only General Class and above misters had debuffs. After the things were bought Sui Rou pours the holy water into her wound the sound of sizzling comes out.

There is indeed a curse debuff on the wound. Thanks to the holy water it was able to remove its effect but the process is different from being roasted alive.

ARGH~

As soon as the sizzling sound fades Manager Gou helped his player break the healing orb over Sui Rou's wound. This time the stabbed wound was healed almost instantly unlike before.

[This is for sure now. Player An Yuan had a monster mark on him. One that is extremely powerful despite the low connection between them. After all, the shade of his tattoo is only light gray. It is only a simple connection between the two. The darker the shade is the stronger the connection the two have.]

Sui Rou smiles weakly, "Sigh~ I opened this movie planning to have a perfect ending and get the perfect ending reward. Who would have thought that the world would pull monsters as newbies in my movie."

[Should I start the exchange of Main Mission?]

"Please avoid any clashes with that pair and especially that player named Hei. He is a lot more dangerous than Han Ya and An Yuan combined," said Sui Rou with a pale face and deep frown on her face.

[What do you mean, Rourou?]

"Look around you," said Sui Rou as she close her eyes trying to calm down her nerves. The pain from before is beyond her tolerance making her feel so tired.

Manager Gou did as he was told. As soon as he turned around he saw the scene of a wild butcher shop with weird lines of strings and the pools of red blood that almost covered the whole corridor. The hallways had the same structures as those on lower floors. Doors at each side. Dirty white walls and cemented flooring.

But the one in front of him is different. Each door was painted in crimson blood. Thin metal strings were hanging between the walls, unknown how it could be done. Hanging with it are cut limbs from arms, legs to heads. It was completely gory and ruthless. A scene of butchery that is even worse as hell.

[What the hell is this!?]
