A wisp of smoke rose, and a sizzling sound came from the spot where Manager Li was hit.
She let out a piercing scream, and the scissors fell to the ground.
It turns out that the bullets in Cui Mingyang's pistol were special supernatural bullets, specifically designed to deal with vengeful ghosts.
Manager Li gripped her injured arm tightly, her eyes burning with rage as she glared fiercely at Cui Mingyang. The three pressed their advantage, unleashing every item and skill they had at Manager Li. Soon, in the fierce exchange, Manager Li was severely injured by Cui Mingyang and the other two, her cheongsam stained crimson with blood—a beautiful but vengeful figure. Unfortunately, this sight was destined to be unseen by anyone!
"Damn it, why is she so difficult to deal with!" Nie Xinxin said between breaths, sweat sliding down her cheeks.
They had been fighting with Manager Li for a long time, but he showed no sign of backing down.
Worse still, this vengeful spirit seems to be able to control the phonograph in the office.
The music seemed to possess a magical power, distorting space and luring them into one terrifying hallucination after another.
Moreover, the melodies were sometimes mournful and lingering, and sometimes sharp and piercing, like countless invisible hands tearing at the three women's will, making every step they took extremely difficult.
“No, if this continues, we’ll all be dragged down.” Cui Mingyang’s voice rang in Nie Xinxin’s ears: “We have to smash that phonograph first and cut off its influence.”
Upon hearing this, Nie Xinxin took a deep breath and said to Cui Mingyang, "Alright, I'll buy you some time. You destroy the phonograph. Remember, be quick!"
"Wait, let me help you," Wang Bing quickly called out from the other side.
Nie Xinxin glanced at her several times, and finally said indifferently, "Keep up!"
After saying that, Nie Xinxin swayed and, like a nimble swallow, darted towards Manager Li in front of her again.
She and Wang Bing used every means they could think of to attract the ghost's attention and buy time for Cui Mingyang.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cui Mingyang gradually approached the phonograph that emitted an eerie light.
"Get out of my way!" Manager Li was furious, his eyes red as he tried to stop him.
How could Nie Xinxin over there possibly let her succeed?
The spear, like a dragon, blocked Manager Li's claws with unstoppable force. Meanwhile, Wang Bing, seizing every opportunity, successfully got Cui Mingyang to destroy the gramophone.
With a loud 'bang,' the phonograph was smashed to pieces.
The very next second after the phonograph was smashed, Manager Li seemed to melt into wax, his outer skin rapidly disintegrating.
What kind of cheongsam beauty is she? She's just a lump of rotten flesh.
"Ugh~" Nie Xinxin grinned, "It's really ugly!"
Manager Li hated the three women even more and screamed, "I'm going to kill you all!"
"Hehe~" Nie Xinxin laughed disdainfully, "Then you come on!"
………………
Meanwhile, Xiao Jin had already brought Xu Qing to their destination.
Not long after stepping into this floor, Xiao Jin sensed that something was wrong.
The 42nd floor was eerily gloomy, filled with a heavy stench of blood. Xiao Jin, alone, gripped a long knife and walked steadily toward Manager Wang's office.
You mean Xu Qing?
That guy is hiding around the corner.
Sensing something was wrong, Xiao Jin told Xu Qing to hide for the time being. Xu Qing didn't insist on following, but instead activated the mechanical bees to assist Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin's muscles tensed, and he arrived at Manager Wang's office in a few steps.
She leaned closer and listened intently.
The office door was tightly shut, and a low growl came from inside, as if some wild beast was trapped inside.
Xiao Jin thought for a moment, then kicked the door open without hesitation.
She then saw a tall man in the office with his back to her, holding a huge axe and hacking at something on the ground.
Blood and bone fragments flew everywhere, and the stench of blood was so strong that it was suffocating.
With her excellent eyesight, Xiao Jin recognized the target of the attack as none other than Manager Chang from the Human Resources Department, whom the player had met on the first day.
Xiao Jin truly hadn't expected this.
Logically speaking, shouldn't these two be colleagues, or even on the same side? How come they're fighting each other?
On the other side, hearing the sound of the door being kicked open, the man slowly turned around.
His face was covered with hideous scars, his eyes were bloodshot, and foul-smelling saliva dripped from his mouth.
"Heh, another new toy?" Manager Wang sneered, then stood up and walked towards Xiao Jin, holding a huge axe.
Xiao Jin's expression remained unchanged as he swung his longsword, the blade flashing silver in the air as it headed straight for Manager Wang's neck.
Manager Wang dodged to the side, the axe striking back and forth. He didn't intend to kill Xiao Jin, but rather to sever her legs.
The intent to torture clearly outweighed the intent to kill.
Xiao Jin teleported away, disappearing from the spot. Manager Wang's axe slammed into the ground with a loud thud.
"Space Slash!" Xiao Jin frowned, his eyes blazing with killing intent.
The blade flashed through the air, leaving a trail of silver light, as if tearing through space, heading straight for Manager Wang's chest.
Manager Wang was hit and let out a shrill roar: "You're asking for death." The axe swung out suddenly, this time aiming straight for Xiao Jin's head.
Xiao Jin quickly retreated, avoiding the axe attack.
Meanwhile, the mechanical bee controlled by Xu Qing flew over. The small creature landed on Manager Wang with a swift, fleeting motion.
At this moment, Xu Qing looked at the contents of the monitor, a slow smile playing on his lips, before uttering a cold word: "Explode."
The next second, countless flames emerged from Manager Wang's body.
The explosion was not loud and the area was small, but Xu Qing was able to precisely control the damage threshold.
"No……"
After the dust settled, Manager Wang was no longer human; his body was covered in blood and gore, with only his bones showing.
He had long since lost his grip on the large axe, which fell to the ground with a thud.
"...You can't..." Manager Wang's eyes widened in terror, his voice filled with rage.
"You talk too much nonsense." Xiao Jin replied coldly, and swung "Shadow Shatter" in his hand again, this time aiming straight for Manager Wang's heart.
Manager Wang's figure suddenly froze for a moment, as if bound by some force.
As the knife tip continued to penetrate deeper, Manager Wang let out a shrill scream, his body rapidly disintegrating and turning into pieces of flesh in an instant.
As Xiao Jin sheathed his longsword and picked up the receipt, the same thought that crossed his mind came to him as Zhan Wenzhen's.
"Something's not right. This is way too weak." Xu Qing, who had just arrived, looked at the mess on the ground and said in a rather heavy tone.
Xiao Jin opened her mouth to speak, but a familiar mechanical voice suddenly rang in her ears.
