Now all that's missing is a Ghost General to complete the deal with the Wujian Restaurant, and the three-month agreement with the Three-Eyed Ghost King is still a dozen days away.
Xia Tianqiong and the Ghost Bride are currently abroad, capturing the last Ghost General.
New York City, America.
Inside an elevator in a building, ten people suddenly appeared out of thin air: two Asians, five whites, and three blacks.
As the group panicked and bewildered, a clown face appeared on the elevator screen.
The clown's voice was full of mockery: "Welcome to the elevator survival game. Everyone must press at least one floor button."
Once the elevator doors open, if the person on the corresponding floor does not wish to exit, they can find someone else to take their place. At least one person must exit from each floor and remain outside for at least three minutes before returning to the elevator.
Friendly reminder: There are dangers outside, but also huge benefits. If anyone remains in the elevator when it reaches the top floor, they will be eliminated.
The rules are very simple, there are no twists or turns, and no one needs to guess.
After hearing the introduction, the people in the elevator immediately started discussing it.
They even argued over who should press which floor button.
In the corner, Xia Tianqiong stood side by side with the ghost bride, saying, "This foreign ghost is just like the foreigners, simple and direct."
The ghost bride's current appearance is that of a young woman with classical Eastern beauty.
She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said softly, "Only in the human world is there the concept of kingdoms. In the realm of ghosts, people are mostly divided by ethnic groups."
“But I’ve been to the Ghost Realm twice, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen any ghosts that look like foreigners.”
"In terms of humanoid monsters alone, the Ghost Realm reveres humanoid monsters of our race. Monsters of other races will be devoured and wiped out as soon as they appear, so their numbers are extremely small."
"No wonder most of the strange designs abroad are in the shape of animals or buildings."
While the two of them were chatting, the argument over there had already ended. Everyone pressed a floor number, and the two of them also pressed a floor number.
The elevator started, then quickly stopped, and the screen showed the third floor.
The elevator doors opened, revealing a pitch-black exterior filled with thick black fog.
The person who chose this floor was a Black woman with dreadlocks and an overweight figure.
She stood at the doorway, her eyes wide open, her legs trembling.
"Damn it, this is terrifying. Who among you is willing to go out in my place?"
A young white man scoffed, "Do you think anyone's stupid enough to go and die for you?"
Another white woman suddenly raised her hand and pointed to Xia Tianqiong and the Ghost Bride in the corner of the elevator, "Aren't there two Asians here? Let them try."
The plump, dark-skinned woman's eyes lit up, and she immediately turned around. "Hey, Yellow Monkey, which of you two will go out and check the situation outside?"
Her self-righteous manner made it seem as if someone owed her something.
The other people in the elevator looked at them with ill intent, but no one offered to help; instead, they all had a hint of expectation in their eyes.
By the way, I should mention that Xia Tianqiong doesn't speak any foreign languages, but the Ghost Bride cast a little trick on him.
This allows him to understand any foreign language, and he only needs to speak Chinese, while others hear a foreign language.
It's a very mysterious kind of trickery.
Before Xia Tianqiong could answer, the fat, dark-skinned woman urged her again.
"You lowly yellow-skinned monkey, didn't you hear me? Get out of here!"
Xia Tianqiong turned his head and saw that the plump, dark-skinned woman's large body blocked most of the doorway, and she was about to glare at him before giving him a friendly greeting.
"roll!"
He uttered a single word softly, yet it struck like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
The others immediately covered their heads and ears with their hands, their faces contorted in pain.
The fat, dark-skinned woman coughed up blood from all seven orifices, and her plump body was sent flying backward.
They flew directly out of the elevator and into the black fog outside.
The elevator fell silent. The others looked at Xia Tianqiong as if he were a devil and quickly moved away from him.
It was unusually quiet outside the elevator; there wasn't a sound.
Two minutes later, a figure suddenly lunged at the elevator, but was blocked by an invisible force and could not enter.
It was that dark-skinned, plump woman, whose face was now withered and as thin as a stick.
"Help...me, you fucking guys come and save me!"
According to the rules, she cannot enter until three minutes have passed.
Inside the elevator was a young blonde girl with a look of pity on her face. "Should we help her?"
Beside her was a strong young Black man; the two seemed to be a couple, holding hands the whole time. "Honey, she's dying, and there's nothing we can do to save her."
"But...that's a human life!"
The blonde girl frowned, her face contorted in pain, radiating an aura of saintliness.
Just then, the plump, dark-skinned woman outside the elevator seemed to be grabbed by something, and her body was suddenly pulled into the black mist.
Then a few screams were heard, and then it all stopped.
The group looked at each other, and no one spoke.
A moment later, the elevator doors slowly closed and started moving again.
