Oh no, oh no, could it be that the big shot I just latched onto has died?
Wu Tianjin felt as if the sky was about to fall, and couldn't help but start to resent Xiao Jin in his heart.
What kind of idiot is this? A big shot, huh? He knew there was something wrong with that toilet and still insisted on going there. Is he out of his mind?
"He..." Wu Tianjin was about to speak when Lu Jing put his hand to his lips and said, "Shh." Then he said with a serious expression, "It's time for room check."
this……
The three looked at each other in bewilderment.
'Bang!'
"Aaaaaaah!!!"
Just then, a desperate shout came from outside.
The players all lived on the fourth floor, so some people secretly opened the door a crack to look out, and Lu Jing and his two companions did the same.
Outside, a towering, eight-eyed monster lifted a player high into the air, its pen, which it had been using to write, now deeply embedded in the player's ear.
"Hmph~" The monster's head drew closer, its words muffled: "Why...aren't you here..."
It turns out that this player also went to the toilet, but he was in the stall on the other side. When he came out, he was unlucky enough to run into the eight-eyed monster, and was immediately grabbed and lifted up by it.
The monster ripped his arm off his body with a sudden, violent pull. The severed arm arced through the air in a horrifying arc before falling into the monster's twisted mouth.
The sharp teeth clashed beneath his throat like razor blades, making a crisp, grating chewing sound. Accompanying this horrifying noise, streams of warm juice spurted out, mixed with the stench of blood and flesh.
As the screams gradually subsided, drops of blood dripped from the ground into the cracks between the walls and the floor, reflecting the tall, dark figure above.
As luck would have it, Xiao Jin had just escaped the ghostly aura of the school uniform-clad female ghost, and as half of his body stepped out from the dim corner of the toilet, he met the gaze of the deformed creature directly in front of him.
The blood-soaked thigh that the eight-eyed monster clutched tightly in its hand was still dripping with warm liquid, the dripping sound echoing in the silent corridor like the whisper of death.
Xiao Jin's pupils contracted sharply, her heart tightened, and her thoughts raced in an instant, with that familiar notice flashing through her mind.
But in the end, it all boiled down to a soft curse: "Damn it!" Did they set her up again?!
Xiao Jin instantly understood that this monster had come to check the dormitories.
The notice stated that lights would be turned off at 10 p.m., so players naturally assumed that the lights-out time was the time for room checks.
This is undoubtedly a trap set by the school for the players. It's exactly 9:30 now, which is the real time for dormitory checks. Xiao Jin, who is not in the dormitory at this time, has obviously been deemed to have violated the dormitory rules.
Xiao Jin's body was tense like a bow. She pulled out the knife she had just put away, and at the same time, she held a familiar coin in her left hand.
The eight-eyed monster was clearly driven to a hunting instinct by the flesh and blood of the unfortunate player from before. It let out a deafening roar from its twisted mouth, like a howl from the abyss, which shook the entire corridor.
Its massive body slammed down, the ground seemed to tremble, and it charged straight toward Xiao Jin with an unstoppable momentum.
At this critical moment, Xiao Jin flicked his wrist, and the gleaming silver coin danced between his fingertips. With a sudden swing of his arm, the coin traced a dazzling arc in the air, moving at a speed too fast for the naked eye to perceive.
A series of crisp cracking sounds rang out, and the rows of light bulbs on the ceiling of the corridor seemed to be struck by an invisible force, exploding one after another, scattering fragments, and the light went out abruptly, instantly engulfing the building in thick darkness.
The eight-eyed monster lost track of Xiao Jin in the darkness and became increasingly agitated. It rampaged around, its massive body emitting heavy thuds and accompanied by angry roars that echoed through the narrow corridor, making it even more terrifying.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Jin activated Soul Hunting and charged forward with his sword raised.
In Soul Hunter mode, Xiao Jin's speed will increase by 200%, and his passive skill Stealth will activate. In just one second, Xiao Jin will appear on top of the eight-eyed monster.
The blade descended like a cold moon, slicing through the stillness of the air, heading straight for the head of the eight-eyed monster.
In the darkness, a flash of cold light appeared and disappeared in an instant, but it was enough to catch the behemoth off guard. The eight-eyed monster seemed to fall into a brief state of confusion the moment it lost sight of Xiao Jin. Its eyes, filled with eerie light, darted erratically in the darkness, but it could not find any trace of its attacker.
Its massive body appeared clumsy due to its inability to see, and it was this momentary hesitation that prevented it from avoiding the fatal blow.
"Swoosh—" The blade pierced the air with perfect precision, accompanied by a tooth-grinding metallic scraping sound, and slashed fiercely across the eight-eyed monster's two bulging eyeballs, leaving a shocking bloodstain.
The monster let out a heart-wrenching roar, a sound that seemed to tear the night sky apart and made the surrounding air tremble.
Xiao Jin gave the monster no chance to catch its breath. She crouched down as nimbly as a cheetah, skillfully avoiding the monster's giant hand that was wildly waving in agony.
Using this momentum, she suddenly exerted her strength, her legs springing up like springs, delivering a sharp knee strike straight to the monster's face. A "crack" resounded, the crisp sound of bones breaking, particularly jarring in the silent night.
The eight-eyed monster lost its balance due to the attack and crashed heavily to the ground, its massive body tilting upwards. Amidst the rising dust, it struggled to get up, but Xiao Jin seized the fleeting opportunity, her figure following closely behind. She swung her long sword again, this time aiming at the monster's slender and vulnerable neck. The blade flashed, like a silver lightning bolt piercing the night sky.
The monster's twitching gradually weakened until it came to a complete stop. The eyes that had once shone with an eerie light slowly lost their color, leaving only emptiness and death.
The surroundings returned to calm. The white floor tiles were stained red with blood, and the iron book clips were soaked in blood, the papers on them completely unrecognizable.
"Hiss~"
I don't know who was secretly gasping for breath behind the door, but Xiao Jin walked straight to room 414 without looking to the side and knocked on the door.
After a while, a very light footstep came from inside the door. The door was opened, revealing a small crack. After seeing that it was Xiao Jin standing in front of him, Lu Jing immediately pushed the door open.
"Come in quickly!" After Xiao Jin entered the dormitory, Lu Jing casually glanced outside, and after seeing the bulge in the shadows, he silently closed the door gently.
...
The room checkers are gone, and whether anyone will continue to complete this task is anyone's guess.
At ten o'clock, the lights in the dormitory went out on time as agreed. Xiao Jin did not close her eyes. After taking a short nap in the afternoon, she was in good spirits. So Xiao Jin chose to close her eyes and rest, lying flat on the bed.
