Chapter 59: Shut Your Mouth

Chapter 59: Shut Your Mouth

Silent Hill Estate.

Just the name alone sounds intriguing.

It carries a meaning specifically targeting him as the "Word Spirit."

Although he's not at all surprised that such a world was waiting just for him, did those guys really think that by merely preventing him from speaking, they could easily kill him?

Does he look that easy to kill?

With such doubts, Chen Sijin's vision darkened and twisted before he quickly arrived at "Silent Hill Estate" in this world.

The moment his feet touched the land of the estate, his first impression was indeed of a silent place—he could clearly hear the sound of his own footsteps.

This was a true manifestation of being brought into this world, something he hadn't noticed in the previous four worlds.

This shows just how quiet this place is.

Then, Chen Sijin heard footsteps of varying heaviness approaching from all directions.

Judging by the sound alone, there were at least twenty people coming.

Chen Sijin turned his head and indeed saw three groups of people approaching from both sides and the front pathway.

Exactly twenty people, no more, no less.

And these twenty individuals, each group with sharp eyes and coordinated actions, were clearly elite squads not to be trifled with.

Meanwhile, Chen Sijin sharply noticed that a few individuals showed visible excitement upon seeing him, which quickly turned into confusion after getting a clearer view of him.

Chen Sijin: Smile.jpg

The aim is to confuse you all.

Also, those who expose themselves first, die first. I haven’t exposed myself, so those who show such expressions, prepare to meet your doom.

Exchangers from the squad approaching him from the front couldn't help but communicate with glances.

[Is it this person? Are you sure?! Isn’t Chen Sijin supposed to be a guy?! But there stands a stunningly pretty girl in a plaid skirt!]

The scrutinized sharp-nailed gloomy beauty smirked.

[Ha! Chen Sijin is a Word Spirit! What’s so hard about changing appearance and gender in those three minutes of being captured by a Devourer?! He’s a sly fox through and through! Turning into a pretty sweet girl is just to confuse fools like you!!]

Saying so, the woman with sharp nails spread her hands, revealing four dark purple nails that looked like venomous plant thorns.

Just as she was about to attack with her dark nails, suddenly, another person appeared next to where Chen Sijin was standing.

“No way! I was just looking for a quiet place to leisurely ponder life, and I get swallowed up? Which Devourer doesn’t have eyes to see?!”

Because Silent Hill Estate was overly quiet, the voice of this long-haired woman in her thirties was exceptionally clear, almost as if amplified.

And it was her words that caused the expressions of the other twenty people gathered there to drastically change, looking at her with an indescribable gaze reserved for the dead.

Has this person gone mad! Didn't they hear the name of the world when they were swallowed in?!

Speaking so loudly in the Quiet Villa, does she no longer wish to live?!!

The woman with sharp nails immediately looked over menacingly, her four nails prepared to attack the pretty sweet girl now directed at the woman with waist-length but unkempt hair, wearing shorts and slippers.

This deliberate attempt to draw attention, using a woman's appearance yet resembling a male slacker, makes this person more suspicious than the sweet girl in a plaid skirt!

However, before those dart-like nails could strike the long-haired slacker woman, they were blocked by a beam of green light.

At the same time, a third person appeared next to the sweet girl.

To the excitement of the three groups of exiles, this newly appeared individual was finally a man!

And what's more! This man bears a striking resemblance to Chen Zigold!

To those unfamiliar, they might mistake him at first glance.

But due to that slight difference, the exiles from the three groups, who are at least level three travelers, couldn't confirm whether this man was indeed Chen Zigold or not.

"Damn it! Are you kidding us?! Let alone the sudden appearance of a third hunting squad aiming to pick an easy target, why are there three individuals swallowed here separately?!

Isn't this a trap specifically set for Chen Zigold?! How come there are others so blind as to be swallowed up too?!"

The initially inquiring burly man with a dark face showed an extremely rich expression, as his teammates and the captain tried to convey everything through facial expressions.

His captain, a man with a gentle smile and a slightly dark aura, chuckled.

He gave his team a look that suggested, "Stay calm and let things take their course."

If Chen Sijin were so easy to kill, they wouldn't need to resort to such elaborate scheming and setting traps.

The fact that they had deployed two elite squads just to kill one man already highlighted Chen Sijin's resilience.

However, now that they've made their move, Chen Sijin's demise here seemed inevitable.

The unexpected arrival of two others didn't matter.

It didn't matter that they couldn't distinguish which of the three was Chen Sijin. If they just... killed them all, wouldn't that solve everything?

As the three squads closely observed the trio, Sweet Girl Chen Sijin was twitching his eyelids at the sight of... himself, making coquettish eyes at him.

If it weren't for all the eyes on him, he would definitely, definitely strangle this infuriating jester!

Yes, at the very first chance of capture, Chen Sijin had significantly altered his appearance.

He transformed himself from a handsome, aloof god into a pretty and sweet goddess, even choosing a lovely red and black plaid dress for himself.

He didn't believe those people wouldn't be baffled upon seeing him like this!

But he never expected that darned jester would also follow him in. Well, he did expect the jester to follow, but...

He just never imagined that the jester would dare to take on his face!

Even while maintaining a sweet smile on the surface, Sweet Girl Jin's inner self was screaming in madness and clenching her fists.

Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine such a scenario—

He became a beautiful sweet girl, someone with a face 90% similar to his own was throwing coquettish glances at him.

"Little sister, you're so cute! So pretty and sweet! Want to team up? Or maybe add each other on WeChat?"

This damned jester not only used his face to flirt with him but also behaved indecently using his face!!

This is intolerable!

Sweet Girl Jin immediately let out a delicate shout and kicked the lower body of the guy who almost shared his face!

Damn, I can't bring myself to hit my own face.

But the lower half isn’t his!!

"Wow, danger, danger. Don't be so fierce, little sister. I really thought you were sweet at first sight and I really like you!

I'm loyal, passionate, and strong. I don’t just casually misbehave."

"Shut up!!" Don’t say such disgusting things with this face ahhhh!

Now, all three people in the middle started speaking, and the three squads surrounding them were even more confused about who Chen Sijin really was.

Fortunately, the world mission's notification sound timely echoed above the mansion.

[Mission of Silent Mansion Released:]

[Survival Mission: Live quietly in Silent Mansion for seven days.

The master of Silent Mansion likes quiet and hates any sound.

Therefore, no one in Silent Mansion is allowed to speak; each word spoken will immediately cost life and energy, bringing misfortune, and threatening one’s life.

If exiles speak more than 5 sentences within seven days, they will lose all life energy and perish.

Also, no piercing noise is allowed inside the Silent Mansion.

Should any exile create noise over 50 decibels, it will also summon unknown dangers within the mansion, potentially leading to death.

So, dear guests visiting Silent Mansion, please have a quiet and pleasant seven days here! Do not speak, and do not make noise.

Reward for the mission: Gain recognition from Silent Mansion, survive successfully, and greatly cultivate a calm and steady temperament.]

Hearing this, Chen Sijin immediately rolled his eyes. As expected, the higher the level, the stingier the reward! The reward for this survival mission is practically non-existent!

And the intention to kill him in this world is blatantly obvious—

The world's rule that speaking a single sentence randomly reduces life and energy, with death certain after five sentences, really tries hard to keep him silent.

But it must be said, this world rule indeed significantly restrains his abilities. The devourer of Silent Mansion is at least of the ruler level, the same as his.

Entering the opponent's devouring world and being bound by the world's rules at the initial stage, not following the rules could indeed lead directly to his demise.

It seems he needs to be careful and really lay low... as if.

Chen Sijin smirked, listening to the following world mission.

[World Mission: The owner of Silent Mansion is somewhat troubled recently, as a man-eating monster has appeared within the mansion.

However, this monster can disguise itself as a human and blend in among the mansion's servants, leaving the mansion owner helpless and unable to catch it.

If someone can identify the man-eating monster from among the hundred servants, the mansion owner will offer the quietest gratitude!

Of course, the owner has conducted some investigation—the man-eating monster makes noises, whereas the other servants in the mansion are true mutes.

Mission Reward: Gratitude from the servants of Silent Mansion. Devourer's Core.]

[Please act quietly, exiles, and may you not become the delicacy devoured by silence.]

Great, the world mission is even more absurd than the survival mission.

Finding the one who can speak among a hundred mutes, and that too, in a manor where no sound is permitted.

Even a stray dog wouldn't be subjected to such treatment!

So, not only does Chen Sijin, dressed as a sweet girl, wear an incredulous expression, but even the members of the three hunting squads, who had allied with this devouring world with the intention of killing Chen Sijin within it, are turning green.

In such a silent villa, it's not just Chen Sijin who's at risk of losing his life; a single mistake could cost them their own lives as well.

As everyone exchanged deep, meaningful looks, the grand doors of the villa in front of them silently swung open.

The first to step out was a serious man dressed in a butler's tailcoat, wearing white gloves.

He first carefully surveyed the twenty-three individuals outside the door, then pulled out a scroll from his butler's vest, unfurling it with a snap.

Chen Sijin and others saw the eight bright red characters: [Please remain silent and follow me.]

Sweet Miss Jin: “……”

Quite attentive service even without speaking.

Truly the epitome of a professional worker.

Then, Sweet Miss Jin found herself grabbed by the hand by the gleeful person next to her, who shared her face, and spiritedly entered the villa.

Without even needing to tap into empathy, Chen Sijin could tell just how delighted this individual was.

Hah.

My fists just got harder!

The others exchanged glances and then entered the mansion.

As they walked, the leading swallow-tailed butler continued to dutifully provide silent introductions to everyone.

[Inside Silent Mansion, there are a total of one hundred servants, including two head stewards, six gardeners, eight chefs, twenty waiters, thirty cleaners, and thirty-four security guards.

My surname is Yao, and you may address me as Butler Yao. Should you have any service-related inquiries, please do not hesitate to approach me.]

Chen Sijin watched as the competent head steward Yao efficiently displayed boards filled with writing and navigated swiftly and accurately along the cobblestone paths.

Truly professional.

[Silent Mansion boasts a hot spring pool, a plum blossom garden, and a glass greenhouse as our most famous must-visit spots. Feel free to relax in the hot springs, admire the snow-covered plum blossoms, or enjoy the myriad colors in the greenhouse when you have time.]

[Additionally, the mansion's villa houses a home theater, gym, game room, and study among other areas, which you are free to enter at your leisure. We hope you have a pleasant seven days at Silent Mansion!]

[Ah, we have arrived at the villa.]

As Butler Yao held up this sign, they indeed arrived at the front of Silent Mansion's villa, showcasing the butler's precise timing.

Even more precise was the moment he stepped through the villa's doors, opened by two maids, and presented the final board.

[The master has already instructed the chefs to prepare a delicious dinner for everyone! Please take your seats as directed, and do not hesitate to enjoy the meal!]

Chen Sijin, noticing the instruction to take seats and sensing a trap, observed carefully.

Indeed, two beautifully dressed maids approached with signs reading:

[Men to the left, women to the right. Please refrain from loud talking.]

Chen Sijin quickly tallied the gender distribution among the twenty-three individuals.

Sixteen men, seven women.

Ah, that's incorrect.

Including himself.

Fifteen men, eight women.

With a hint of hesitation about his current gender identity, Chen Sijin slowly made his way to the right side.

Upon nearing a chair, he noticed the woman with the sharp nails smirking at him and arrogantly pulling the chair closer to herself, effectively claiming it.

She then flashed a triumphant smile at him, gesturing with her chin towards the chair she occupied, her eyes conveying a challenge, as if to say, "What are you going to do about it?" or "Want the seat? Beg for it."

Sweetie Chen: “……”

Is she trying to force him to speak?

Then, everyone witnessed the sweetly dressed girl in the red and black checkered dress flash an exceptionally sweet smile.

She picked up a plate from the table and hurled it directly at the woman with sharp nails!

As the woman with sharp nails caught the plate in slight panic, he threw a cup, a bowl, and a ceramic spoon at her in quick succession.

Eventually, he reached for the tablecloth, seemingly ready to pull it and create a noise that would doom everyone seated.

Everyone: !!!!!

"Stop, you maniac!" they seemed to cry out in unison.

Instantly, two of the woman's teammates stood up; one helped her catch the dishes, while the other quickly cleaned the chair she had monopolized, placing it next to Chen Sijin with an apologetic gesture inviting him to sit.

However, the irate sweet girl clutched the tablecloth, continuing to smile sweetly without letting go.

The aggrieved wanderer was visibly annoyed but managed to maintain a smile, pleading with hands clasped together.

Others looked on disapprovingly, urging him to behave through their stern gazes. Chen Sijin, catching their looks, smirked slightly.

He then scanned those seated at the table, his expression a mix of scorn, disdain, and threat.

Finally, he gracefully took his seat.

"Ah, that's the look!" Lv Jun would have screamed if he were there, marveling at the silent, deadly stare capable of infuriating everyone without a word.

Indeed, a facial expression that spoke louder than words, sending a clear message of contempt without uttering a single sound!

Then, the girl, supporting her chin with one hand, curved her lips into a slight smile.

Such a familiar sensation.

It felt like returning to a place of joyous belonging.

Le Zi Jin's eyes sparkled with admiration: "Awesome!"
