ICSST CH27: The Final Touch

by Aria — Bidding. The absurd word hung in the air, freezing the atmosphere. Zhou Qi’an strained to keep his eyelids from closing, quietly waiting for this special auction to begin. The statue's eyes flickered between dark and cloudy, alternating back and forth, with constant cruelty lurking deep within. Many had once prayed before the statue—men, women, the elderly and young, millions of people whose desires could be summed up in simple words: wealth, love, life, offspring, and vengeance. Zhou…

ICSST CH26: Dawn

by Aria — He raised his hand and took. This simple action, completed within two seconds, left everyone staring in disbelief. The person involved also found it strange. Thinking there was some kind of trick, Zhou Qi’an decisively recalled the white silk, ready to fight to the death at any moment. His muscles tensed, his thin lips pressed tightly together, not daring to relax for even a moment. However, the moment he pulled out the trident, nothing happened. "…Is this for real?" Amidst the…

ICSST CH25: The Golden Legend

by Aria — The staff weren’t all-knowing about the instance. For example, Mr. Si knew that Xun Er was a monster disguised in human skin, but he couldn’t recall his background or the reason behind him becoming a monster in detail. In the end, by counting the number of heads, he barely matched up the few bluish-purple monsters with the players. It was impossible for so many monsters to have appeared out of nowhere in the instance. A few of them had familiar outlines that could be identified. As for the last…

ICSST CH24: Two Question Marks

by Aria — Xun the Wealthy’s death triggered a series of changes throughout the mansion. In the spreading darkness, the villa became the most terrifying core of it all. It resembled a giant, grotesque growth, writhing unevenly. The group came to a halt outside the villa, feeling a sense of unease. After feeding the fish, the college student had grown a bit bolder: “Should we set the place on fire?” Zhou Qi’an glanced at him, as if looking at an idiot. The college student scratched his head…

ICSST CH23: The Whole Feast

by Aria — Beneath the layered shadows interwoven by darkness, Zhou Qi’an steadied himself and said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll count to three.” “One, two…” There was no way back now. Everyone assumed it was the signal to charge—a desperate battle, a final struggle against time. “Three.” Who would have thought that as soon as Zhou Qi’an finished counting, he would decisively turn around and shout, “Run!” “???” Zhou Qi’an bolted without the slightest hesitation,…

ICSST CH22: The Feast Begins

by Aria — Downstairs, Han Tiansheng was still shaken with fear. "I really saw him." Saying "he went upstairs" wasn’t entirely accurate—Xun Er looked more like a stranded fish, his half-ruined body writhing, or rather, swimming upward. The sight was as grotesque as it was eerie. With the sun’s unnatural descent, the living room was dimly lit. Han Tiansheng couldn’t make out all the details, but the blurred imagery only made it more terrifying. Just moments ago, he thought he was doomed.…

ICSST CH21: Blessing

by Aria — The players had limited curiosity about the staff and didn’t care what official notice Mr. Si would receive. Right now, Zhou Qi’an was more concerned with how to stir up trouble using his friendliness score, which had exceeded sixty. Before he could put his plan into motion, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed from the stairwell. "Where is everyone? Come out this instant!" Xun the Wealthy was furious—again. This time, his anger burned hotter than ever, and his eyeballs nearly popped out…

ICSST CH20: Rekindling the Fire

by Aria — Ghosts had a simple and brutal way of thinking—they only cared about results. In the female ghost’s eyes, Zhou Qi’an, who had nearly killed Xun the Wealthy with an explosion and a fire, was a good boy. She appeared, hanging upside down from the ceiling, staring at him with a deathly gaze. Zhou Qi’an suspected that when she and the little ghost had died, one had been stuffed into a mattress while the other had been sealed in the ceiling. That would explain why their appearances were always…

ICSST CH19: Double Standards

by Aria — In the distance, the fire had been extinguished, leaving only thick, rolling smoke. The young man stood before Mr. Si with an eager-to-please expression, weaving his lies into a tight cocoon while keeping part of his mind on the stakeout inside the villa. Hopefully, that spider’s many eyes weren’t just for show. The fury on Mr. Si’s terrifying rabbit face faded slightly. He didn’t fully believe Zhou Qi’an’s words, but he hadn’t found any major flaws in them either. And as a game…

ICSST CH18: The Suona Begins

by Aria — This was far beyond just a little bit of shock. The college student’s face turned pale. “You want to set fire to the manor… and cause explosions? Are you trying to make sure nothing survives here? That’s just too—” “Too much of a waste, right?” Zhou Qi’an said. “After all, the house wasn’t cheap to build.” The college student opened his mouth to say something, but Zhou Qi’an looked at him with a half-smile. “Not for the house? Are you actually sympathizing with the…
