What's the crash? I'm playing the game normally.

Chapter 992 The Scaring Contest! Whoever scares the other to the point of breaking down wins!
The rules for fire prevention are as follows:

The flames in front of the three teams of players are terrifying flames; the more terrified the players, the smaller the flames become. The team is eliminated when the flames extinguish.

When the player is terrified to a certain degree, the flames will stop burning, and the flames will also be weakened by the wind.

As the system announced, green flames lit up in front of the three teams; these were the terrifying flames.

Among them, Bai Wan's team had the largest green flames, followed by the villainous Li Sha's team, and the weakest were the righteous partners.

It seems that Bai Wan and the others were no longer afraid during the previous operation, while the Justice Partners were frightened by the previous strange events, and their fear level dropped significantly, which resulted in their flames not burning as fiercely.

Bai Wan and the others instantly understood how to play the game.

“If flames and terror levels are closely related, then we need to scare the enemy team members while also protecting our own fire,” Su Yuening said to Bai Wan.

Bai Wan nodded, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes. He loved scaring people the most.

Meanwhile, the villain Li Sha also turned his gaze to Bai Wan, and frowned slightly when he saw the green flames in front of her.

The villainous group in front of him, called Spicy Hot Pot, was indeed quite extraordinary. He had sensed something was off before, as this group was chatting and laughing in this terrifying haunted house.

It's easy to imagine how strong their mental fortitude is, which is why the will-o'-the-wisps in front of them are burning the most intensely. This will be their team's most formidable opponent. He glanced at his righteous partner, whose strength and mental fortitude were both average.

Therefore, their biggest enemy this time is Mala Xiangguo (a type of spicy stir-fry), after all, there is only one clown crystal in the haunted house, and there is no distinction between good guys and bad guys here.

"It's alright, boss, I'll take care of it."

A man wearing sunglasses walked out from behind Li Sha. He was dressed in a very trendy style and had a black eagle tattoo on his hand.

His name was Lü Kang, and he was known as the King of Fear. He was skilled at inflicting the terror of death on his opponents to break down their defenses.

Li Sha nodded politely to Lü Kang. Lü Kang wasn't a member of their team; he was hired at a high price specifically to participate in the Ghost and God Amusement Park event.

Li Sha had assumed that since it was a ghost and spirit amusement park, there must be haunted houses or similar attractions. In such a spooky environment, having someone who could create terror for the other player would give them an advantage in the game. Li Sha smiled at that moment, and sure enough, he was right.

We actually encountered a haunted house segment.

His decision to hire Lü Kang at a high price was indeed correct.

Lu Kang smiled at Li Sha and said, "Don't worry, Captain, I won't let you waste your money. I'm quite famous in the villain world. This horror value setting is perfect for me. I'll scare them so badly that all their flames will stop burning."

Lu Kang pushed up his sunglasses, looking at Bai Wan and the other team members with a somewhat disdainful expression.

No matter how strong the mental fortitude of the spicy hot pot players is, they will be powerless to resist their own attacks. They can only be said to be unlucky to have encountered their specialty.

Thinking of Lü Kang, he walked straight forward. His eyes behind his sunglasses suddenly turned red. At that moment, the already dark and gloomy haunted house seemed to become even colder, and faint wailing sounds came from an unknown direction.

Gradually, one ghost after another appeared out of thin air. These ghosts were almost inhuman, with distorted and blurred features. The moment everyone saw these ghosts, the uncanny valley effect was triggered, and they were instinctively filled with fear.

Especially Lin Bo'er and the others from the Justice Partners team, upon seeing the dead soul, the flames in front of them began to shrink slightly.

Following Li Sha's advice, Lü Kang focused his attention on Mala Xiangguo, their greatest enemy at the moment. He then dispatched his twisted ghost to quickly approach the enemy. This was his special ghost, the Terror Ghost, which instilled fear in anyone who saw it. Coupled with its distorted face, even the most resolute person would have their defenses breached within seconds.

Bai Wan and the others, who were initially looking somewhat solemn, then discovered that the ghost had also triggered a bug, with one half of its face resembling Bai Wan's and the other half resembling Liu Tong's. Although the features were somewhat distorted, it looked even more ridiculous.

Especially seeing Liu Tong and Bai Wan simultaneously yelling and screaming at everyone, Su Yuening and the others didn't even have time to react before they burst out laughing. "Pfft!"

"I'm dying of laughter, this is too funny! It's half Grandpa Bai and half Brother Liu Tong."

Su Yuening and even Lin Luoluo couldn't help but cover their mouths with their hands, while Liu Tong and Bai Wan stared at each other's faces and laughed heartily.

Nana and the newly joined Yun Xin'er both burst out laughing.

"???"

Three question marks appeared above Lü Kang's head.

What the heck? What are you guys laughing at??
Seeing that I have a phobia of ghosts, you're not scared at all, but you even laughed. Isn't that a bit disrespectful?
Lu Kang suddenly stood there dumbfounded. This was the first time he had ever encountered a team with such mental fortitude. No, this couldn't even be called mental fortitude anymore. Who the hell wouldn't be afraid of a grotesque person with distorted features, but instead laugh out loud?

This has already transcended the realm of humanity.

Lu Kang glanced furtively at Captain Li Sha, feeling a little embarrassed. The other party had paid a high price to scare people, and he had actually made them laugh.

It's somewhat embarrassing.

Cilantro was in the most awkward position. Looking at the incredibly terrifying ghost while her teammates were laughing, she could only manage a forced, almost tearful smile, and finally said:
"Hahaha, that's hilarious..."

"...Okay, okay, that's interesting. Looks like you've watched too many horror movies, right? It's okay, Captain, don't worry, I'm just testing the waters."

Lu Kang smiled at Li Sha, indicating that everything was going according to plan, and Li Sha nodded in response with a smile.

“Master Lü, I certainly believe in your ability to scare people, otherwise I wouldn’t have hired you.”

Lu Kang smiled and nodded, but finally stared at Bai Wan and the others with a serious expression and murderous intent.

"You've got some skill, but it's useless. Watch my ultimate move—Terrifying Memories!"

Wow!
Suddenly, a powerful aura emanated from Lü Kang. Then, Lü Kang stared at Liu Tong, a worker with a resistant expression at the front of Bai Wan's team, and projected his memories onto him.

This is his ability, Horror Memory. He can project the most terrifying things he has ever experienced into the memory of others to achieve the purpose of scaring them. However, this skill has a drawback.

That is, the other party can also project their own memories into his mind.

However, he specializes in horror and has many skills related to defending against horror, so there's no need to worry about being influenced by the opponent's memories.

No matter how terrifying the other person's memories are, he can accept them all.

Lu Kang smiled slightly, and the skill was implanted into Liu Tong's mind.

Lu Kang projected his most terrifying experience into Liu Tong's mind. It was a time when he and his teammates participated in a major battle as mercenaries. Enemy and comrade alike died in front of him, creating a scene of almost a mountain of corpses.

Most people would be terrified and mentally broken in an instant, but Lu Kang gave Liu Tong a cold smile and said, "Have you ever experienced death?"

Wow!
Memories of the corpse mountain flooded Liu Tong's mind. Lü Kang had expected to see Liu Tong driven to a mental breakdown by his own terror, but to his surprise, Liu Tong remained expressionless, instead displaying a disdainful smile, and calmly said:

"Death? Is this your death?"
