Chapter 96 [(*^▽^*)]
Tang Zhengchu felt the same way. "Let's go, let's get out of here first. If the three of us go together, even if we encounter evil spirits, we'll have the strength to deal with them, unless we suddenly encounter a BOSS."
"However, the BOSS definitely won't appear until the very last moment."
When they went out, they looked around and saw that it was almost 10 p.m., which was already very late.
"Let's go take another look at Building 2."
"Didn't you already go during the day?"
Tang Zhengchu said, "During the day, I set up some props on the second floor, but I didn't feel them being triggered, so I guess I didn't use them. Now I'm going to recycle the props. These things are worth a lot of points, and they're not cheap."
If you say that, of course no one will have any objections, since these props will definitely be useful later.
"However, to be honest, Lin Nanyue really didn't go in to check. She's really patient."
"Who can argue with that!"
Even at night, the neighborhood isn't pitch black. Such a high-end neighborhood is naturally equipped with streetlights, but the lights aren't very bright, as they need to accommodate residents who need to sleep at night.
Fortunately, there was no problem with seeing the road.
As they walked, the three of them heard no other sounds and saw no one else in the entire neighborhood; only the sound of their footsteps echoed throughout the neighborhood.
If it weren't for these streetlights, they would have thought this neighborhood was deserted, desolate, and dilapidated...
And so, the three of them arrived at the entrance of Unit 4, Building 2, with hearts pounding in their chests.
There was a light above the entrance to the building, but it wasn't very bright. Standing a short distance away, they looked at the door and felt a sense of unease.
Yao Mo, "Shall we go?"
The person who set up these props was Tang Zhengchu. These props definitely need to be recycled, otherwise it would be a real waste, but...
The eerie feeling was truly unsettling; they all felt a chill run through them, and even the usually arrogant Lian Yushan was starting to feel the effects.
"Or, how about we come during the day? When it's light, Lin Nanyue's work hours start at eight, so how about we come at six?"
Tang Zhengchu: "What are you afraid of? Wasn't Lin Nanyue dealt with that skeleton ghost here? Logically speaking, there shouldn't be anything else."
Yao Mo's lips twitched. He himself said it was in accordance with reason, but what if it really happened? He wondered if the nighttime had any effect on the abilities of those evil spirits.
The three of them slowly approached the unit door. Tang Zhengchu reached out and opened the door, and the motion-sensor lights inside turned on, making it quite bright.
"Let's go, what's there to be afraid of?"
Lian Yushan: "Should we take the stairs or the elevator?"
this……
"We're going to the second floor, so we can just take the stairs. The elevator... it would be troublesome if we got trapped inside."
None of the three of them felt there was anything wrong with taking the stairs. They then opened the stairwell door like thieves. The stairwell had motion-activated lights, and although the sound of the door opening was very slight, it was enough to turn on the lights.
They looked at the empty staircase, observing their surroundings as they quietly made their way to the second floor.
When they arrived on the second floor, they were surprised to find Qin Jiao's corpse standing before them!
Everyone was startled; they had never expected to see Qin Jiao before they arrived! Qin Jiao's body, which had already been killed, had not been disposed of and was simply lying in the corridor.
Before they arrived, they all thought that the only things on the ground were their bloody footprints and their bloody handprints on the door in front of them.
But what appears before my eyes now...
Qin Jiao's neck was almost cut in half, and the blood beneath her had turned dark red, forming a large pool of blood.
To get to that room, one would have to step over Qin Jiao's corpse, or at least tread on the pool of blood.
Otherwise, with such a large area, they... would have to jump over it.
But... it doesn't really make a difference, doesn't it? We're just going over corpses anyway.
Yao Mo looked at Qin Jiao's corpse. Her graceful body now looked as stiff as a puppet. Her long, black, wavy hair was now soaked in blood and stuck to the ground, obscuring her face.
The neck, which had been cut in half, was exposed. Seeing the face would be frightening, but not seeing the face seemed even more terrifying.
Regardless of what Yao Mo and Lian Yushan thought, Tang Zhengchu was determined to retrieve the props.
Tang Zhengchu slowly walked forward. When he stopped, his toes were right in front of Qin Jiao's head. "I'm going to retrieve the props. You guys wait here. If anything unexpected happens, remember to come to my aid."
Both Yu Shan and Yao Mo said there was no problem, and even held their only weapon in their hands, so they could attack the other party immediately if anything appeared.
Of course, whether to go to Tang Zhengchu's aid or turn around and run away would depend on the situation at that time. Tang Zhengchu stepped over Qin Jiao's corpse with trepidation.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I stood in front of the door. I looked back and saw Yao Mo and Lian Yushan standing there, one looking forward and the other looking back, ready for battle.
The body belonging to Qin Jiao on the ground remained unchanged. Only then did he open the door behind him while staring at the body. The door, marked with a bloody handprint, slowly opened.
Tang Zhengchu slowly turned his head, and just as he was about to walk inside, a head drooped down from above the door frame and bumped right into Tang Zhengchu's head.
"ah!"
He gasped, touched his forehead, and involuntarily took two steps back. The impact had been quite severe, making his vision blur and preventing him from seeing his surroundings clearly for a short time.
Just because he can't see it doesn't mean that Yao Mo and Lian Yushan behind him can't see it.
"hiss!"
In short, when the two saw the head, they even forgot to breathe and didn't attack it. They were so frightened that their eyes widened and they turned and ran away immediately.
After Tang Zhengchu calmed down a bit, he shouted, "Hey, why aren't you two saying anything? What hit me? I can't see anything right now..."
As he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped rubbing his forehead, and the entire corridor fell silent. He could only hear his own breathing.
Of course, there was also the loud sound of a door opening and closing behind us, and the hurried footsteps of two people, which quickly faded away.
It was only then that Tang Zhengchu realized that these two guys had actually run away! They had agreed that if anything happened, they would come to the rescue immediately.
Unexpectedly, when faced with danger, before the fight even started, he ran away, and most importantly, he abandoned himself!
If you're going to run, take yourself with you!
No, no, this isn't the time to think about that. The fact that they ran so fast is enough to show that whatever is here is definitely something they can't handle.
Before Yao Mo and Lian Yushan could even exchange a word, they instantly made the same judgment: in just one glance, they could tell that the three of them combined couldn't defeat this thing.
He didn't even dare to lower his hands or look up. He was frozen in place, as if as long as he didn't move, this thing would let him go or not notice him.
How could this be? I just killed a skeleton demon during the day, why is there such a powerful thing appearing now?
Could it be because it has been replaced? The skeleton is dead, this territory is empty, will other equally powerful evil spirits fill this position?
So fast? It's only been a few hours!
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come. What's with this "recycle items" nonsense?
The props he set up here, although they cost a lot of points, were not as important as his own life.
If I hadn't come, I might have survived. Although I lost some items, I might have been able to get 500 points for clearing the dungeon later!
Now... not only do I fail to clear the level and die, but I also lose points, and I can't even get my items back.
His vision has returned to normal, and his head, which had been hit earlier, doesn't hurt as much as before, but he just doesn't dare to put his hand down. He keeps his eyes fixed on the ground, doesn't dare to look up, and doesn't even dare to move.
He heard no sound around him; it was pitch black and there were no lights. Perhaps the slightest movement would turn on the motion sensor, but he dared not move.
Even though Lian Yushan and Yao Mo ran fast, it's unclear whether they managed to escape.
"No! Staying here will only lead to my death. I have to think of a way!" Tang Zhengchu knew he couldn't stand still forever.
We'll deal with those two treacherous guys later; for now, let's do our best and leave the rest to fate.
The next second, without even looking up, he turned and ran as if he couldn't see anything. He didn't even notice Qin Jiao's corpse lying behind him as he ran, and stepped on it.
He tilted to one side and almost fell to the ground.
"grass!"
He cursed under his breath, but continued running unsteadily. Fortunately, after running two or three more steps, he gradually regained his balance, pushed open the stairwell door, and ran down the stairs at top speed.
What he didn't know was that the moment he stumbled while stepping on Qin Jiao's corpse was the perfect opportunity for him to dodge the deadly blow the evil spirit behind him aimed for his neck.
Tang Zhengchu didn't look back, and didn't know if the ghost had caught up, or if he was really afraid of dying and turning back to kill it.
In short, he made it outside without being attacked.
He was even lucky enough to spot the security guards on night patrol. Only when he saw them did he feel completely relieved, knowing that no evil spirits would appear in front of them.
Although he didn't know why he had escaped unharmed, he knew he was safe.
Perhaps Yao Mo and Lian Yushan ran away first, which attracted the evil spirits? That's how I managed to survive?
