Chapter 394 [(*^▽^*)]
This ghost is quite interesting. Everything it swallows is stored in a void space. In this space, even the elite monster in front of us can only be obediently digested bit by bit. It cannot escape unless it can directly tear open the space inside its stomach!
This is his skill, originally designed to prevent the food he swallows from escaping. However, after eating the corpse of Elite Monster 03, the skill evolved, which is why he is so confident!
If this elite monster 05 makes just one mistake! If it makes just one mistake, I'll win!
Elite Monster 05 was unaware of this, but as an elite monster, he still had a sense of crisis. Every time that huge mouth appeared nearby and tried to swallow him, a sense of danger would rise in his heart!
Although he spoke words of mockery and belittlement, he became increasingly cautious. This ghost was indeed no ordinary creature!
Their battle seemed boring, but a closer look revealed dangers everywhere. Even Xue Rui and his group, who were already safe, realized they had underestimated the ghost that appeared in the staff canteen after noticing the elite monster's serious expression when it confronted them.
Huajiao whispered, "Could this ghost really evolve into a new elite monster? If so, won't all the ghosts An has left become..."
Zhou Feng said, "It's not that simple. This ghost became so strong entirely because it ate the corpse of the elite monster 03 that we killed before. Where did they get so many powerful corpses to eat?"
Huajiao breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good! I was so scared... If it were really as I guessed, then the players wouldn't be alive!"
Xue Rui said, "Even so, we must deal with these ordinary ghosts as soon as possible and destroy their corpses!"
Fang Hong gritted her teeth, "We never had the concept of destroying corpses before. We've learned our lesson! Let's go. While these two powerful ghosts are holding each other back, let's go find some more ordinary ghosts to kill."
Ding Baishuang's eyes lit up. "Agreed!"
After all, it seems that neither of them can be determined in the short term. While observing their battle, they can also hunt other ghosts. There is no conflict between the two.
This is not just about earning points, but also about eliminating as many ghosts as possible that might evolve into elites in the future. If these ordinary ghosts survive to the end, they will be the ones in trouble.
After all, they're definitely going to have to deal with the BOSS. With so many elite ghosts surrounding the BOSS, how are they supposed to win? Are they just going to commit suicide?
Xue Rui: "Now that there are elite monsters, we can't use the items to find ordinary ghosts. Do you have any other methods? Searching layer by layer is too slow, and some ghosts will avoid danger and won't even appear if they encounter a powerful player. We might not be able to find the remaining ghosts."
Lin Leyou checked how many ghosts were left, and found that apart from four elite monsters that were still alive, there were only ten ordinary ghosts left!
Including that Devouring Ghost that's constantly dealing with Elite Monster 05, to be honest, Lin Leyou quite likes this Ghost. It knows how to lie low and keep devouring to get stronger!
Lin Leyou sensed it and wondered if it was because he only had two more days before he could leave, but his abilities as a BOSS were gradually becoming apparent. At first, he felt that he could only use his own skills and items, and that he couldn't even beat a random elite monster.
But now... Lin Leyou casually waved his hand, and a palm-sized ornament placed on a table in the distance slowly floated up and flew towards him. He grabbed the ornament and casually put it aside.
He has gradually mastered the abilities of Elite Monster 03, and now he even possesses tremendous strength, so his speed shouldn't be too slow either.
The latter's speed and strength are the abilities of Elite Monster 05. It turns out that this BOSS can possess the abilities of all Elite Monsters, as long as... as long as he can live for five days.
Lin Leyou had a sudden realization: So that's how it is! The boss on the first day is the weakest. If players want to win, they must find a way to sneak into the top floor and kill the boss on the first or second day! Otherwise... as time goes by, the boss will become stronger and stronger.
If I really wait until five days later, and then I can go out on the sixth day, I should have the ability of four elite monsters by then. With my own items and skills, as well as the skills that originally belonged to the BOSS, how could the remaining players in this dungeon possibly defeat me?
A dead end, this is a dead end for players. If players don't think about killing the BOSS at the beginning, then it will be a dead end in the end.
This is already the third night, Xue Rui... Can you believe it? Tomorrow morning after six o'clock, it will be the fourth day, and the fourth day is the last chance!
The fifth day... Although I won't be able to leave until the sixth day, I believe I'll be invincible by the fifth day. "Ah... it's lonely at the top!"
Xue Rui and his team are currently searching for ordinary ghosts. Their original search tools are no longer working, but they have a better way.
The building is refreshed every day, so the places where there were dead people are also refreshed and become spotless. They only need to look for places with bloodstains where someone died on other floors, and they will likely find the hidden ghosts.
They have now found a place with mutilated corpses. The half-eaten body is scattered at the entrance of the toilet. The blood does not appear to have congealed, so the person was probably not killed very recently.
Xue Rui said, "They should still be here. Everyone be careful."
The five of them cautiously approached the toilet. Huajiao was somewhat speechless. "Why do these ghosts like to stay in toilets to kill and eat people? Do they have some kind of special fetish?"
Everyone paused slightly. Although they felt that what she said was a bit inappropriate, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it, since it was the truth.
Xue Rui said, "I'll go in and take a look first. You guys follow behind and remember to provide support at any time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly took two steps forward, stepping over the pile of flesh and blood, before slowing down and walking into the toilet.
But he walked around the whole thing without any unexpected events. Could it be that the ghosts here had already left? Xue Rui didn't believe it and walked around the whole thing twice more, even opening all the cubicle doors, but still found nothing.
He slowly walked out, but when he reached the door, he realized that the four people outside were gone. Good! It wasn't that there was nothing unusual, but that he hadn't noticed it.
Since this has happened, why not take advantage of these free points?
In Zhou Feng's eyes, Xue Rui was still looking around inside, walking around with a calm expression, observing slowly, and occasionally standing in one place for a while, as if waiting for something.
They didn't notice anything unusual for the time being, but given enough time, they would definitely find out that the ghosts inside were clearly trying to kill this one first and then deal with the rest.
Although we can only kill one at a time, this is the strongest one, and the remaining four can be dealt with together!
This ordinary ghost had gained a little intelligence by the third day. It had eaten quite a lot of people in the previous two nights, and was now much stronger than on the first day.
On the first day, he definitely wouldn't have been able to fool the four players outside. He would either have to hide well or be hunted down and killed by his prey.
Xue Rui waited for a while but his teammates didn't come in, or perhaps they did come in but he couldn't meet them. In the same place, they were separated into two different spaces by the ghost.
Now all he has to do is wait for the ghost to appear. It will eventually eat him up, since it can't stay locked up forever.
Xue Rui didn't need to rush; only the ghost was anxious. Sure enough, Xue Rui stood in the middle without moving, which puzzled the ghost. It had originally been waiting for its prey to panic when it realized it couldn't escape, so it could appear and kill it when the other party wasn't paying attention.
But now the prey is just standing there motionless. After a while, the ghost will naturally start to get anxious. If the prey panics, it can make its move now!
After all, there were still several prey waiting outside. If they noticed something amiss and came in, he would be in danger if the five of them joined forces. That's how Xue Rui waited for his prey to appear.
In the brightly lit restroom, the light above suddenly began to flicker. After a few flickers, the light gradually dimmed until the entire room was completely dark. The sound of wind lashing against the windows could even be heard outside. Xue Rui's lips curled into a smile. Almost there…
Xue Rui originally thought that this ghost could hold out for a while, but he didn't expect it to give up in less than ten minutes. It was really impatient. But that's fine, it can save him time.
He casually took out a bracelet from his pocket and put it on his wrist. The bracelet was made of black and red beads. At first glance, it didn't seem like anything special, but upon closer inspection, some patterns seemed to be faintly visible on the beads.
The black, mud-like ghost that was gradually condensing on the wall above clearly didn't find this thing useful. Although he saw it, he didn't feel threatened and didn't take it to heart.
Xue Rui smirked. Just as the mud on top had fallen to less than ten centimeters above his head, he suddenly stretched out the hand with the bracelet on it.
As the hand extended, red and black patterns appeared on its skin, resembling runes, though they were somewhat indistinct.
Then, the hand grabbed the mud. Normally, anything that touches mud should be engulfed and eaten, but…
