Uninvited Guests

The question popped into Qin Rang's mind, but he was quickly drawn back to it by the Moonlit Night.

"If you use it again, you'll completely lose control." Moonlit Night reached out, "Mask, let me see it?"

Qin Rang hesitated for a moment, then handed it to him anyway.

Under the Moonlit Night, Qin Rang took the Weird Object and examined it from both sides. The Weird Object didn't seem special at first glance, and Qin Rang found it easy to use. However, only by holding it in his hand could he feel how chaotic the energy contained within it was.

"Only a madman like you could use such Weird Object."

In this world, perhaps only the protagonist, Qin Rang, has been able to use this mask safely for so long. Ordinary people who put on this mask would become monsters driven by it the next second.

"Many times we have no choice but to use them." Qin Rang took back the mask, shrunk it, and put it back in his pocket. He smiled and said, "No Weird Object is without danger. Aren't the Weird Object you use the same? They might cause a slight change in personality, but as long as it's still within a controllable range, it's fine."

"So, have we broken the Rules for Actors now?"

Moonlit Night laughed and said, "What do you think constitutes breaking his Rules?"

"Disrupt the play he directed, leading to a completely different ending from yesterday."

Qin Rang looked at Tao Yuan and the others, his narrow, fox-like eyes narrowing. "Did we succeed?"

Here, Tao Yuan channeled energy into the Chainsaw, wanting to test Chainsaw power.

"The energy intensity is higher, the ability to target souls remains, but the charging time is shorter. There's also a Rules... it seems to cause berserk behavior upon contact with blood, the side effects remain the same, it's still a little pink person, but it's not just affecting the hair, the skin might also turn pink..."

As Tao Yuan spoke, the Chainsaw in his hand suddenly expanded in size, the metal gears emitted a piercing friction sound, and the high-speed spinning sound cut through the air, leaving scratches on the nearby walls and ground.

Tao Yuan, wielding Chainsaw, swung it down without hesitation at his friends who were standing right in front of him!

The enormous Chainsaw enveloped almost all of them under its sharp teeth, with Wang Ding in the very center, feeling immense pressure every time he Chainsaw up.

No one expected Tao Yuan's sudden attack.

In the rush, An Ying used her umbrella to push Wang Ding's body outwards. Bai Yang's Puppet quickly blocked Chainsaw's teeth, forcing it to pause for a moment. In that instant, a long knife flew from afar.

The gleaming blade sliced through the pink Chainsaw. Wang Ding seized the moment of hesitation and rolled to the side, the Chainsaw slamming down beside him.

"Zzz--!"

A deep gash appeared on the floor, the Chainsaw gears stuck in the tiles, dust and sand flying everywhere.

Moonlit Night reached out and retracted the long sword. Having missed his attack, Tao Yuan picked up the three-person-high Chainsaw and continued swinging it horizontally.

Moonlit Night's longsword once again blocked the attack, and in the gap, she reached out and pulled Bai Yang, who was the weakest, to her side.

"What happened to Tao Yuan?" Wang Ding clutched his arm, his face pale. He had never expected to be ambushed by his teammate.

Qin Rang rushed over to pull his teammates away, but out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the bloodstains all over the Corridor walls and suddenly realized something, his heart skipping a beat.

"You probably violated the Rules of this Chainsaw; it can't draw blood." Qin Rang looked at his hand. "How's your hand?"

"It's nothing, just a scratch, nothing serious," Wang Ding quickly replied, knowing what he was worried about.

Qin Rang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

The blade grazed the Chainsaw as it flew towards Tao Yuan. Sensing the danger, the irrational Tao Yuan gripped the handle tightly with both hands, holding the Chainsaw horizontally in front of him to block it. A few strands of pink hair were severed by the blade and then completely crushed by the violent energy.

If it's something eerie or an enemy, the blade's edge in the Moonlit Night won't just slice off a hair.

If he attacks Tao Yuan now, he will definitely hurt her. Moreover, there is no absolute safety under the Weird Object; injury or death are both possible.

However, attacking the Chainsaw would be too dangerous for them; being hit by the Chainsaw would surely lead to the same fate.

They were all caught in a dilemma; what should they do now?

After blocking the blade's edge, Tao Yuan used both hands to forcefully flip the Chainsaw's blade and thrust it forward fiercely!

An Ying was about to stop him, Moonlit Night reached out and grabbed his collar, pulling him back as well.

"Don't go and cause trouble."

Even faster than An Ying reached the Chainsaw was a thin piece of paper.

The light pages of the book blocked the Chainsaw, and the raging Chainsaw suddenly went out, crashing weakly to the ground with a thud.

"Are you out of your mind? You'll stop anything!" Moonlit Night said to An Ying, "You should have some idea of your own capabilities."

The implication was that he was overestimating his abilities.

Bai Yang, who had also been pulled back by the Moonlit Night and was overestimating his abilities, laughed and said, "If you had been down there just now, you would have been split in two, just like your umbrella!"

An Ying didn't say much, but simply pursed her lips and whispered her thanks, "Thank you."

It's unclear whether the thank you was for pulling him back or for stopping the Chainsaw.

The moment the Chainsaw went out, Tao Yuan's eyes suddenly cleared.

She glanced instinctively at the Chainsaw in her hand, then at the various battle scars all around her, her teammates far away from her. Confused, she released the Chainsaw Weird Object muttered to herself, "Did I... just lose control?"

Did I hurt you?

"That's how it happened. If they hadn't helped us, yesterday's events would probably have repeated themselves. Wang Ding's arm would have been broken, An Ying would have been harmed by the Weird Object she used to save us."

After listening to their story, Lin Nieran stared at the people standing in his room in shock. "Such a thing happened? I have no recollection of yesterday at all?"

Qin Rang said, "We'll probably need to catch the Actors and break the Rules to restore your memories. Not only do I remember, but they all remember too."

After saying that, he looked at Bai Yang, Moonlit Night, and Ji Fengbai. The three of them nodded in unison, showing a tacit understanding.

A few minutes earlier, Tao Yuan, Wang Ding, Moonlit Night, Bai Yang, under the pretext of the school coming to "visit families," found Lin Nieran's house. The group of them arrived at Lin Nieran's room in a grand procession.

An Ying and Qin Rang, who were not students, could not go together, they carried Tao Yuan's huge Chainsaw and climbed up the pipes behind the residential building.

They climbed up faster than Tao Yuan and the others. Lin Nieran, who was teaching Little Dumpling to do her homework in the room, thought that some new kind of eerie thing had arrived and was about to kill it when the system urgently stopped him.

Otherwise, these two uninvited guests would probably have been mistakenly killed by Lin Nieran.

Ji Fengbai arrived even more casually. He stuck a piece of paper on himself, becoming invisible to the Weird Mother, and followed Tao Yuan and the others in.
