Chapter 51: Chapter 51 Abnormality: A Song of Good Fortune, a Gift to Everyone! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

If we don’t consider unrestricted instances like the Bloody Train,

by his calculations, he would need more than seven months.

As for dying in an instance? What a joke.

Of course, now that Mu Rufeng had started with a trillion soul coins, ten million was really nothing to him, merely a trifling amount.

If other abnormalities knew about this, let alone ten million, even ten thousand would have made them kneel and call him ‘daddy.’

Even among the strong Level 6 abnormalities, a million could make them obey you.

In the Mysterious World, the more money you have, the stronger you are, but the stronger you are, the less money you have, because you’ve spent it all on enhancing your own strength.

You could say it’s a contradiction.

After all, one can absorb the ghost qi within soul coins to empower themselves.

…

Mu Rufeng took steps to enter Carriage Three.

The conductor in Carriage Three was quite observant, knowing that a free-roaming Contractor should not be provoked.

They were also aware that their carriage was close to the dining cart, so no melodramatic scenarios arose.

All they did was politely ask if Mu Rufeng was heading to the dining carriage.

When Mu Rufeng took out his meal card, the conductor immediately stepped aside.

Some new players saw Mu Rufeng pass by, hesitated, wanting to speak or ask some questions, but ultimately, they lacked the courage to do so.

It didn’t take long before Mu Rufeng reached the connection to Carriage Two.

Here, something was off.

He didn’t step into Carriage Two but stood in front of the carriage.

Mu Rufeng discovered that the whole of Carriage Two was completely dark, without any light whatsoever.

To say that you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face would not be an exaggeration.

“Is anyone there? Why’s it all dark?” Mu Rufeng did not dare to enter, standing at the connection point and yelling inside.

Though Mu Rufeng had a cheat, he wasn’t foolish; it was clear there was a problem inside.

He had money, but it wasn’t everything.

“Good day, sir. You must be looking for the dining carriage, right? I apologize, but the carriage’s lights are out due to some issues and are under urgent repair.”

“If this has caused any inconvenience, please forgive us.” A voice came from within Carriage Two.

“Broken? Under repair?” Mu Rufeng did not believe it.

It’s a joke. Even if the lights were broken, it couldn’t possibly be this dark.

After all, the light from Carriage Three, though not very bright, should at least shine through.

But this Carriage Two, it was as if light could not penetrate at all.

However, considering this was an instance in the Abnormal World, anything was possible.

After a moment’s thought, Mu Rufeng took out matches, lit one, and tossed it in.

A strange thing occurred.

The moment the burning match entered Carriage Two, it suddenly vanished without a trace.

It wasn’t like the flame had been extinguished; it was as if the darkness had enveloped and covered everything.

Mu Rufeng could still smell the unique scent of the burning match, so it was clear the match hadn’t disappeared.

It was still burning, but it was invisible, as if its light had been stripped away.

“How long will it take? I’m already quite hungry,” Mu Rufeng asked.

There were no explicit rules about mealtime, but in the instance’s world, there were definitely such quirks.

Better safe than sorry.

Who knows whether the Rule has set that not eating within an hour is a violation, and even though Mu Rufeng was wealthy, once he broke a Rule, he would be a rich, appetizing, fat sheep.

The abnormalities would definitely swarm in.

“The maintenance crew is currently performing emergency repairs, it’s still uncertain at the moment,” came the voice again.

“How am I supposed to dine? Just wait here? Is this the kind of service your train offers?” Mu Rufeng said coldly.

“We are terribly sorry, sir, this is our fault, rest assured, we will compensate you.”

“After the repairs are completed, you may proceed to the dining car again, and receive a 20% discount,” the voice chimed in once more.

“A discount? Do I look like someone who needs that money?” Mu Rufeng spoke.

“If sir can’t wait, then you can follow this black thread, it will lead you to the dining car.”

As the voice finished, a black thread emerged from the darkness.

Mu Rufeng frowned upon seeing this.

What on earth happened in Carriage 2?

“Sir, sir? Are you still there? Just hold onto the thread, and it will take you to the dining car,” said the voice.

Mu Rufeng didn’t touch the thread.

After pondering for a moment, Mu Rufeng took out his Rule Item, the Loving Singing Mouth.

Since the situation inside was unclear, Mu Rufeng didn’t mind using his own item to break the situation.

[Please specify the target and a song for the performance]

Mu Rufeng straightaway used his Rule Item, targeting the person inside Carriage 2 who was speaking.

As soon as he used the item, the Loving Singing Mouth transformed into a black light and entered Carriage 2.

“Uh? What’s this? Not good, Rule~~”

A cry of alarm came from the man, but before he could finish his sentence, a lively song began to play.

“Good fortune come, I wish you good fortune come,”

“Bringing joy and love with good fortune come,”

“Good fortune to us, let good fortune come,”

“Meet good fortune and prosper across the lands.”

“Folding a thousand paper cranes, tying a red streamer,”

“May good-hearted people have good fortune every day,”

…

As the song played, the darkness in Carriage 2 rapidly receded.

Mu Rufeng could now see the scene inside Carriage 2 clearly.

There was nothing different from the other carriages, and the lights weren’t damaged.

There weren’t many passengers either, with the addition of three new players, no more than thirteen in total.

These passengers all sat in their seats, eyes tightly shut, but their faces showed expressions of fear, as if they were having nightmares.

Down the aisle, a Suit Ghost was singing “Good fortune come.”

This Suit Ghost had a range of expressions and was dancing wholeheartedly as if he was completely immersed in his performance.

However, Mu Rufeng could feel the terrifying ghost qi emanating from within the Suit Ghost.

He wished he could kill Mu Rufeng on the spot, but because he was caught up in his enthusiastic singing, he was completely unable to act.

Mu Rufeng still didn’t dare to enter Carriage 2.

Because he feared the Suit Ghost was feigning it, maybe he could act and was just trying to deceive Mu Rufeng into entering?

Or perhaps, he originally intended to dismiss Mu Rufeng but somehow changed his mind.

Mu Rufeng suddenly caught sight of the stewardess sitting in the front row.

The stewardess was also deep in sleep, her face extremely panicked, seemingly having a nightmare too.

In other words, the ability of this Suit Ghost was likely Nightmare-related.
