As they were talking, Lin Yu and his group arrived at the fourth floor.
Rushing into the corridor, they found that all the monsters on this floor were dead; everywhere they looked, there were only corpses.
Lin Yu had anticipated this and immediately said, "Quick, to the 5th floor!"
Time is running out for them. Countdown: 6 seconds, 5 seconds...
The shouts from behind rang out once again:
"Song Tianhuo! Song Tianhuo!"
"Zhao Daqiang, Zhao Daqiang!"
"Sun Qianqian, Sun Qianqian!"
The voice that had previously seemed like a death curse to them now posed no threat whatsoever, and the group could remain calm and composed in the face of it.
With 4 seconds left on Lin Yu's countdown, the group successfully rushed into the 5th-floor corridor.
Sun Qianqian let out a soft moan, her whole body convulsed, and she collapsed to the ground.
Her mana had been completely consumed, and next, her health would be consumed.
"I'm almost done for too." Zhao Daqiang's face was deathly pale, and a few seconds later, he also collapsed to the ground.
Both of them were on the verge of death, and Lin Yu was their only hope!
Lin Yu had already charged forward like an arrow, wielding the blue stone sword, towards the monster.
At the same time, at the other end of the corridor, the elevator doors opened with a clang, and through the dense swarm of gray-skinned monsters, Lin Yu saw Third Master and Li Fei stepping out of the elevator.
The two of them also saw Lin Yu, their expressions filled with astonishment.
"This kid isn't dead? How is that possible?" Third Master said in disbelief.
Li Fei was also shocked: "Could it be that he has already solved the danger in the stairwell? No, that's impossible, impossible!"
They were well aware of the dangers of the stairwells. Back then, the leader and his gang perished in the stairwells when they tried to go from the 5th floor to the 7th floor.
Now, what makes Lin Yu think he can get out of there alive?
"Perhaps, like with elevators, the lower floors aren't so scary; the truly terrifying part is the path from the 5th floor to the 7th floor," Third Master analyzed.
"That's why this kid ran out from the 5th floor without a second thought."
Li Fei nodded, agreeing with the Third Master's assessment, and then sneered:
"Hey! Look at his shoulder, there's an extra head. I don't know what that head is eating, but one thing's for sure, this kid's not going to make it!"
Third Master laughed loudly: "Haha! I thought he was so capable, but he's just a pathetic worm on the verge of death!"
"Perfect timing! They've drawn the monster away for us."
Li Fei laughed loudly, "Haha! This saves us some effort, let's go!"
The two strolled back to the elevator leisurely, ready to leave.
Lin Yu grinned and returned a contemptuous smile.
But then he lunged at a monster at top speed and slashed it down with his sword.
The monster seemed not to see him at all, neither dodging nor avoiding, letting him slice off one of his arms.
With a "plop," black blood splattered.
The monster then realized what was happening, roared, and lunged at Lin Yu.
The other monsters completely ignored Lin Yu, as if they hadn't seen him at all, and swarmed into the elevator.
Lin Yu was not very surprised by this. In his estimation, the gray-skinned monster and the vengeful spirit were mutually restraining and unwilling to get close to each other.
This is evident from the fact that both sides possess independent territories.
Now, with a vengeful spirit on his shoulder, the gray-skinned monsters are trying to avoid him. Unless he attacks them, they won't even think about attacking him.
"This, this is impossible!"
"Are these monsters blind? Why don't they just eat that kid?"
Inside the elevator, shouts from Third Master and Li Fei could be heard.
They didn't understand why the rules that had always worked were no longer effective for Lin Yu.
Lin Yu swung the green stone sword continuously, unleashing three consecutive sword strikes within a second. The sword energy surged, and the high amount of true damage stunned the monster!
The monster's chest and arms were slashed open with deep, bone-revealing wounds, and blood gushed out.
Lin Yu noticed that the vengeful spirit on his shoulder was trembling slightly; clearly, it was somewhat afraid of the blood flowing from the monster.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up, and he let the black blood splatter onto his shoulder.
The vengeful spirit shrieked and flew away immediately. Lin Yu's mana stopped draining, and the control panel displayed: [Mana: 2/300.]
Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief. What a close call! Thank goodness he survived.
As for Sun Qianqian and Zhao Daqiang, whose lives were hanging by a thread, Lin Yu could only say that he would do his best to save them, but he couldn't guarantee whether they would survive.
"Roar!" The gray-skinned monster pounced on Lin Yu frantically. Its high level 5 health allowed it to withstand several of Lin Yu's true attacks and still retain its fighting power.
"Pfft!" Lin Yu seized the opportunity, severing the monster's other arm, and then pierced its chest with his sword, but he himself was also kicked by the monster.
Lin Yu leaned back, bent over like a shrimp, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, Lin Yu's mana was completely exhausted, and he could no longer deal high damage to the monster. Fortunately, the monster was also weakened by his repeated attacks.
Lin Yu gritted his teeth, grabbed the monster by its legs, and dragged it toward Sun Qianqian and Zhao Daqiang.
Lin Yu glanced at them; the two were now like candles flickering in the wind, as if they would die at any moment.
Lin Yu quickly lifted the monster up, and the gushing black blood splattered onto their shoulders.
The vengeful spirit screamed and flew away, while the two people closed their eyes and did not wake up for a long time.
"Looks like I couldn't save you after all. I'm sorry." Lin Yu sighed, silently mourning his fallen teammates.
After the mourning was over, Lin Yu smiled and said, "Rest in peace. I will take good care of your props and weapons."
Lin Yu reached out to grab the two men's weapons.
The next second, the two of them opened their eyes simultaneously.
Zhao Daqiang said, "Well, we're not dead yet, so you might have to be disappointed."
Lin Yu silently withdrew his hand and laughed, "Haha! It's so good that you're all alright!"
