Li Qi and the muscular man's expressions changed drastically; they instantly understood why the residents in the building had turned off their lights.
What else could it be? It's probably because something scary will happen when the lights are on.
The two of them trembled involuntarily, quickly turned off their flashlights, and darkness returned to their surroundings.
Now everything should be alright!
Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, that voice, both endearing and infuriating, rang out again: "It's too late, they've arrived..."
Wh...what? Who did you say arrived?
As soon as Xiao Jin finished speaking, a gust of cold wind suddenly rose, carrying a bone-chilling cold, surging in like a tide from the darkness of the other corridor.
Listen closely, and you can hear an indescribable resentment and fear mixed in with this cold wind.
Immediately following was a series of thumping footsteps, each step pressing on the players' tense nerves.
The sound was interwoven with low whispers, and the sharp, chilling sound of a weapon scraping against the wall, sharp and rapid, coming from afar.
Something unknown, like a harbinger of death, seemed to be rapidly approaching their location.
"Run!" Li Qi's pupils contracted sharply, and his voice almost cracked from tension.
He instinctively wanted to turn around and run away, but was shocked to find that more than half of the people around him had disappeared without him noticing.
Although it was dark around him, he still remembered the general outline.
A question mark popped into Li Qi's mind, and he froze on the spot. Wait, where did they go?
His eyes searched around and finally caught sight of Xiao Jin and her group ahead. They were like cunning foxes, having quietly led the NPCs away sometime earlier.
"Damn it!" Li Qi finally realized what was happening, his anger burning, and he couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.
Without further hesitation, he grabbed Xiao Xin, who was still in a daze, and shouted, "Don't stand there, come with me!" With that, he took off running with her.
Xiao Xin seemed not to have reacted yet, and followed behind Li Qi blankly.
It turned out that as soon as she sensed something coming, Xiao Jin used her strength to grab Xiao Yu with one hand and push Xiao Mei into Cui Mingyang's arms with the other.
She then kicked Xiao Shuai, sending him flying into Luo Bin's stunned body.
She then grabbed Xiaoyu and disappeared from the spot, heading straight for the fourth floor.
When suddenly a living person appeared on them, Cui Mingyang and Luo Bin were both startled, but then they felt a gust of wind and all they could hear was Xiaoyu's scream.
The two reacted instantly. One grabbed Xiaomei with his arm, and the other carried Xiaoshuai on his back. Xu Qing and Tong Xiaolu followed closely behind.
Xu Qing and Tong Xiaolu are clearly not power-type athletes, which is why Xiao Jin didn't give them the players.
The darkness before them was different from the one in the bumper cars; it posed no obstacle to Xiao Jin. Led by her, the group ran upstairs without looking back.
Three minutes later, Xiao Jin arrived at the door and put down Xiao Yu, who was still in shock. As a result, Xiao Yu's legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
Xiao Jin quickly found the key, opened the door, threw the person inside, and then went out to meet Cui Mingyang and the others.
A moment later, Xiao Jin threw Xiao Mei and Xiao Shuai into the house, one in each hand. By then, they could vaguely hear the sounds of fighting behind them.
It seems some players have been caught up.
Upon seeing this, Cui Mingyang and Luo Bin ran out again.
Xiao Jin turned around, intending to go together, but was stopped by Xiao Yu from behind. She turned around in surprise and saw Xiao Yu with red eyes.
"No...go...I'm scared..."
A stunningly beautiful woman stares at you with teary eyes, pleading in a soft voice. Anyone who sees this would find it irresistible!
Unfortunately, our little boss isn't a normal person.
She grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and, under her terrified gaze, pressed her down onto the sofa. As if feeling something was missing, she turned and shoved a fruit knife into her hand.
"You won't be afraid if you hold this."
Xiaoyu stared wide-eyed, glanced down, and saw Xiao Jin walk away without looking back. A hint of resentment inexplicably appeared on her face.
Meanwhile, Xiao Mei and Xiao Shuai beside her had their mouths agape...
Unexpectedly, in just a short while, Cui Mingyang and Luo Bin had already started fighting after Xiao Jin came out. However, their target was not the vengeful ghost, but Ding Zhao.
Ever since he saw Cui Mingyang and his group, this person has acted like a quail, seemingly unwilling to have any interaction with them.
Cui Mingyang was too lazy to pay attention to him. As long as Ding Zhao didn't do anything reckless, he could pretend he didn't know him.
But since Ding Zhao has now provoked Cui Mingyang to attack him, there can only be one explanation...
Thinking of this, Xiao Jin's heart sank. When she turned her head, she saw Xu Qing with an angry expression and Tong Xiaolu covered in blood in his arms.
If you look closely, the bloodstains start from her thigh and extend downwards.
Her tattered pants and pale left leg were covered in fine beads of sweat, and an empty syringe lay on the ground.
Xiao Jin immediately recounted the whole story.
She glared suddenly, her sharp gaze piercing Ding Zhao. She gathered her strength in her hand, and the next second, a cold light shot towards Ding Zhao's head.
Ding Zhao, who was fighting, suddenly felt a chilling sensation, as if he were being firmly locked in place by a giant beast.
Ding Zhao instinctively pulled a small glass bottle from his backpack. The bottle then emitted light and transformed into a series of mirrored protective shields, completely enveloping him within them.
The moment the protective shield took shape, a purple-gold light seemed to burst forth from the void. When Ding Zhao came to his senses, he shuddered and sat down on the ground.
Xiao Jin appeared before Ding Zhao at that moment, half of the shattered shadows in his hand already embedded in the protective shield.
If it weren't for some inexplicable force blocking his way, Ding Zhao's head would have been pierced by the long sword long ago.
This scene not only terrified Ding Zhao, but also made Li Qi and the others who had just come over freeze in place.
He kept glancing at Xiao Jin, seemingly considering whether he should go over there.
Upon seeing Xiao Jin, Luo Bin felt as if he had found a powerful backer. He pointed at Ding Zhao and shouted, "He just attacked Xiao Lu, trying to make her attract the evil spirits!"
If the fawn hadn't reacted quickly, it wouldn't have just lost one leg.
Upon hearing this, the killing intent in Xiao Jin's eyes intensified.
Ding Zhao tried to deny it, shaking his head at Xiao Jin: "No, no, I just accidentally..."
"You're talking nonsense." Cui Mingyang retorted, "What do you mean by 'mistake'? I saw it with my own eyes when I came out."
And the deer's legs were still at the back; I'm pretty sure those were your props.
