“Yes, yes, yes.” Han Chuan looked at Wu Tianjin with a face full of agreement: “That’s right, she definitely wouldn’t repay kindness with enmity.”
"Pfft!" Lu Jing, on the other side, seemed to have heard a joke. He laughed loudly and glanced at the two of them with disdain: "This is the first time I've ever heard of a human talking about friendship with a ghost. How ridiculous!"
Wu Tianjin seemed to realize that he had been too presumptuous in his thinking.
Now that Yu Ling has become a vengeful ghost filled with resentment, we can't view her with the mindset of a normal person. We need to be prepared for the worst!
Turning his gaze away, Lu Jing continued buzzing in Xiao Jin's ear, like a bothersome big fly.
"Hey! I don't believe you haven't thought of these things. What are your plans for the next dungeon?" He blinked.
Unfortunately, Xiao Jin didn't even look at him: "Wu Tianjin said something wrong earlier!"
"oh?"
“In the real world, Yu Ling tried to kill me, but I severely injured her and drove her away, so she wants me to help her collect the corpses,” Xiao Jin replied calmly.
Upon hearing her words, Lu Jing burst into laughter after a moment: "Hahaha, interesting, very interesting."
"You injured her before, and then you pieced together your limbs to regain your strength for her. Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect you to be so kind to repay evil with kindness."
Lu Jing clapped his hands sarcastically, only to see Xiao Jin turn and leave, coldly tossing out a sentence as she went: "So what! I'll give her a chance for revenge!"
"Heh~" Lu Jing leaned against the wall, a smug smile slowly spreading across his striking face.
…………
Once outside, everyone discovered that Yu Ling wasn't the only one in danger.
Because of the fusion of the outer and inner worlds, all the vengeful spirits from both worlds are now crammed into the real-world Linhai High School, where they themselves fight and devour each other.
Therefore, when Xiao Jin and the others came out, they found bloody remains everywhere.
There were students and teachers among them; they tore at each other, chewed and devoured one another, their scarlet eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, searching for a target that could kill them with a single blow.
At the same time, a huge explosion suddenly came from the teaching building on the other side. The shock wave shattered the windows of the teaching building, and large shards of glass fell to the ground, reflecting a dazzling light in the sunlight.
The surroundings trembled, and Wu Tianjin stared wide-eyed at the teaching building: "That's... a player?"
"Wait!" Han Chuan suddenly shouted, startling Wu Tianjin so much that he jumped up.
He turned his head back and forth, looking around, asking, "What's wrong? What's wrong?" But Han Chuan didn't say anything for a long time.
"Um..." Han Chuan's expression was unusually strange: "Did you... see the time for the main quest?"
The others: "..."
Xiao Jin was so focused on her surroundings that she didn't pay much attention to the main quest.
Hearing Han Chuan's reminder and seeing his complicated expression, Xiao Jin seemed to have realized something.
Their gaze fell on the panel, and sure enough, the progress of the main quest was completely different from what they had seen in the inner world. The game time had already reached the last day.
Main Quest: Survive for 14 days (Countdown: 4:05)
"This... the flow of time is different in the outer and inner worlds?" Wu Tianjin breathed a sigh of relief; this was good news.
All told, he had spent almost two days in the inner world, while a week had passed in the outside world.
At the same time, the appearance of the group also attracted the attention of the evil spirits outside. Compared to the fighting among their own kind, human flesh and blood were often more attractive.
A heavy and oppressive atmosphere suddenly gathered in the air, and dozens of scarlet eyes, flashing with greed and bloodlust, were fixed on Xiao Jin and his companions.
Those gazes were like tentacles reaching out from the abyss, attempting to devour their souls as well.
An indescribable, sweet, and unsettling scent filled the air, mingled with the dampness of earth and decaying leaves, and the faint screams that could be heard in the distance, creating a bizarre symphony.
Driven by their bloodlust, the faces of the vengeful ghosts before them gradually twisted, their bodies contorting into bizarre shapes, drool dripping from their mouths, as they slowly surrounded Xiao Jin and his companions from all sides.
Whew~
To be honest, Han Chuan had been through a lot. He took a deep breath and pulled out his weapon.
With a resolute expression: "Come on!"
Xiao Jin flicked his wrist, and a long sword appeared in his palm.
With a crisp 'snap', the white bone whip once again revealed its power. Lu Jing was no ordinary madman once he entered battle mode, so Han Chuan and the other man quietly moved aside.
Just then, the surrounding ghosts seemed to have encountered something terrifying. Their eyes were filled with terror, and they screamed and lay on the ground.
Xiao Jin turned around abruptly and saw that the space above the top floor of the girls' dormitory behind her was visibly distorted.
Far away, the wall suddenly shattered, and a figure flew out from the gap.
In that instant, two pairs of equally indifferent and aloof eyes met in mid-air. Xiao Jin could see clearly that a strange smile appeared on Yu Ling's empty and stiff face.
It's as if it's saying, "Wait for me!"
Immediately afterwards, Yu Ling distorted the space next to her, creating a black hole, and her figure entered and disappeared.
With Yu Ling gone, the surrounding vengeful spirits were no longer intimidated by her aura and once again cast covetous glances at Xiao Jin and the others.
Xiao Jin withdrew her gaze, and where Lu Jing and the others could not see, a hint of madness gradually appeared in her eyes. Her hands involuntarily clenched the broken shadow, and the corners of her eyes turned somewhat bloodshot.
A long-awaited provocation? She'll be watching closely!
When the fight started, not only Han Chuan and Wu Tianjin, but even Lu Jing frequently looked at Xiao Jin. They were all shocked by Xiao Jin's aura at that moment.
If Xiao Jin in the past was like a stagnant pool, no matter what situation she encountered, she could remain calm and composed. This calmness infected the others around her, making it difficult for them to feel close to her.
But this time, Xiao Jin was acting strangely, even more erratically than Lu Jing, completely losing his temper and using excessive force.
As Han Chuan dodged the sharp teeth that were biting at his head, he couldn't help but mutter to himself: Wow, is this really necessary?!
Seemingly influenced by Xiao Jin, Han Chuan and Wu Tianjin also displayed twice the strength as before, while Lu Jing was not to be outdone.
As if he were competing with Xiao Jin to see who could kill more, he used some kind of ability, and green flames actually appeared on his white bone whip.
The air was eerie and ghostly; any ghost that encountered it would wail desperately.
He wielded the bone whip with great force, and with each swing, the surrounding area turned into a green sea of fire, complete with churning ghostly figures and screams—a truly hellish scene.
