Modern Era, [Southern Branch Troupe].
Zhong Xueran had never told anyone what it felt like to use the Three Pure Ones Bell.
In fact, the Three Pure Ones Bell had another "hidden" ability besides Instant Teleportation.
That was... the instant it was used, a clear, detailed map, like a God's-Eye View, would be imprinted directly into the user's mind.
That map covered the entire accessible area of the current ghost story. The instant Zhong Xueran used it, she could grasp the ghost story's overall size, including the location and structure of every room. She could even see the furnishings and the placement of objects.
Once she shook the Three Pure Ones Bell and a "jingle-" rang out, all of time and space would stop for Zhong Xueran, giving her almost three extra seconds. Those three seconds were for her to choose where on the entire map she wanted to teleport.
With a sharp enough mind and an absurd enough memory, someone could even memorize every detail of the "ghost story map" within those three seconds!
That would be an enormous help in the rest of the game, whether for escaping, hiding, or even finding hidden items.
