"There are many special materials in the system shop, but due to the points limit, this is the best I can do." Xu Qing looked ahead.

Although he didn't say anything, the pride in his eyes was very obvious.

"Besides assisting in attacks, what other uses does it have?" Xiao Jin asked directly.

"The attack system is currently only loaded with melee weapons; long-range firearms will have to wait. Besides that, reconnaissance, tracking, and surveillance..."

Xu Qing smiled and said, "I love food, so I specially equipped Zero with a cooking system."

However, it hasn't had the chance to be shown in this world yet. Next time, I'll treat you to a taste of its craftsmanship.

Xiao Jin's lips curved into a smile.

Robot Zero moved quickly, but it couldn't eliminate all the black beetles, so Xiao Jin and Xu Qing also joined in to help.

However, considering the black beetle's preference for flesh and blood, the two dared not be careless.

Activate all available defensive skills, while also maintaining a sufficient distance from the insect to avoid being bitten.

This back-and-forth has delayed things considerably.

But the vengeful ghost on the other side didn't seem to want Xiao Jin to be so comfortable. The professor's body trembled suddenly, and a violent light flashed in his empty eyes.

The arms that had been stationary around it suddenly stretched out like tentacles, carrying a chilling wind. Several arms shot through the air with a sharp whistling sound, aiming straight for Xiao Jin and Xu Qing's vital points.

Xiao Jin and Xu Qing reacted almost simultaneously, their figures retreating rapidly, like two afterimages darting through the narrow space.

The professor's arm traced eerie arcs in the air before crashing into nothingness, then with an irresistible force, it slammed into the hard concrete ground with a resounding boom.

It seemed angry at the failed attack, raising its arm covered in veins and rotting flesh, leaving several deep, bottomless holes in the ground around it.

Xiao Jin gripped the 'Wheel of Destiny' tightly in his left hand, the muzzle constantly spitting out tongues of fire. Bullets rained down on the approaching arms, each hit sending up sparks and black smoke.

As he leaped and darted through the air, each swing of his right hand was accompanied by a flash of silver light, deflecting the professor's attacks one by one.

Upon landing, Xiao Jin did not hesitate and quickly fired several freezing bullets at the ground.

The warheads released intense cold air the moment they hit the ground, instantly freezing the area beneath their feet into ice.

Even if insects crawl up, Xiao Jin just keeps stacking freezing bombs.

Her feet landed lightly on the ice, and she used the ice to leap up again, continuing her fierce battle with the ghost, while Xu Qing assisted her from the side.

Seemingly unable to kill Xiao Jin and the other two, the professor's body began to tremble violently.

The black beetles no longer surged out of the cracks on its body, and the professor's massive body began to shake violently, the process of its limbs twisting and rearranging was shocking.

The muscles wriggled under the skin, as if countless tiny snakes were frantically crawling beneath it.

The bones rearranged with a series of cracking sounds, each misalignment accompanied by a heart-stopping shudder.

Immediately afterwards, both Xiao Jin and Xu Qing could feel a violent energy gathering within the professor's body.

Oh no!! It's about to self-destruct.

The two exchanged a glance, both able to see the shock in each other's eyes.

At this moment, an extremely oppressive atmosphere began to permeate the air, a sign that energy was about to reach its peak.

Not daring to be careless, the two of them started running backwards at the same time, seemingly trying to get away from the blast radius as quickly as possible.

At the same time, light surged around Xiao Jin as he unleashed several skills simultaneously.

When she sped up, Xiao Jin noticed that Xu Qing was running slower than her, so she grabbed his collar and ran with him.

However, both of them knew that, based on the energy they sensed, a self-destruction of this magnitude could potentially level the entire building.

Behind them, the professor's body gradually emitted a dazzling light, within which ghostly energy could be faintly seen surging.

It was like a wild horse about to break free, violently assaulting the restraints on the professor's body, seemingly trying to tear everything apart and destroy it.

Time seemed to slow down at that moment. Xiao Jin had already grabbed Xu Qing and stepped onto the sixth-floor window.

She planned to jump off the building, since there was no faster way!

Just as Xiao Jin leaped down, a deafening sound resounded through the sky.

With a loud 'boom', the powerful push caused Xiao Jin to lose her balance and fall from the building.

At the same time, the shockwave from the explosion struck the two of them.

Xiao Jin groaned, his face turning deathly pale, a trickle of bright red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. Xu Qing, on the other hand, coughed up a mouthful of blood, his head lolling to the side as he lost consciousness.

As she fell, Xiao Jin's mind went blank for a moment, and the buzzing in her ears left her completely at a loss for what to do.

But in an instant, Amo on her wrist woke Xiao Jin up again.

Xiao Jin immediately regained his senses and forcibly twisted his body in mid-air, using the building walls to slow his descent.

With her current physical strength, she might be able to land safely from a mere sixth floor.

She just didn't know whether she should be glad or not, because even after all that, she hadn't let go and thrown Xu Qing down.

'Bang!'

Xiao Jin landed and tumbled, covered in dust, but she could still hear the sound of bones breaking.

"Xu Qing?" She put Xu Qing aside and then turned to look at the building. She hadn't forgotten that Cui Mingyang and the others were still inside.

But as Xiao Jin raised her head, her expression suddenly changed.

The building in front of them collapsed completely in an instant due to the explosion.

Stone slabs, bricks, and broken glass on the building were scattered and flew about like withered trees swept by a gale.

With a deafening roar, it stirred up a storm of dust and gravel.

A vast, heavy shadow, like the apocalyptic sky, crashed down mercilessly onto the ground, shrouding everything in darkness.

Oh no, we can't escape now!

Xiao Jin erected a defensive barrier above Xu Qing's head; at this point, there was no other option but to gamble.

Just as the ruins were about to crash down on Xiao Jin, she didn't notice that the task on the player panel had quietly changed to "completed".

【bite--】

Accompanied by a familiar notification sound, Xiao Jin's body trembled, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already in the amusement park.

She looked around and saw a huge projection screen in front of her, showing a close-up of the haunted building.

The haunted building in front of him had been reduced to ruins, and all the ghosts were gone. Then Xiao Jin saw two figures helping each other to their feet from the ground beside him.

The camera zoomed in, and sure enough, they were two female NPCs.

It seems they survived.

At the end of the scene, the two people, with tears in their eyes and filled with grief, look at the ruins, and time freezes—thank you for watching.

Immediately afterwards, the lights suddenly turned on, illuminating the entire theater as if it were daytime. The door on the side, which had been tightly closed, also opened, and expressionless staff members stood outside.
