Everyone Who Saw the Eyes Had to Die
"Both of them had their eyes gouged out. Their brains and organs had been sucked dry, leaving nothing but skin on their upper bodies," Fang Penghui said. "I've been here four days, and this is the first time I've seen a Player die like this."
Before this, every Player had simply vanished without a trace, except those killed by other Players. No one could find their bodies.
This was the first time anyone had been so brazenly left out in the open.
It seemed more like a warning... Xu Huo considered it for a moment, then said, "Isn't there a Player in the Dungeon who's been here six days? Maybe he knows what happened."
"Brother Fang, why waste time beating around the bush?" cut in a square-faced Player who looked short-tempered. "That guy's raving mad. We can't get anything out of him. The only ones who know what's going on are this man and woman. If it wasn't something from the Dungeon that killed them, then these two are Cannibal Players who staged this to cover up their identities!"
"If they won't talk, kill them. They're Cannibal Players. Killing them would make us all a little safer!"
"You sure about that?" Xu Huo didn't want to fight right now. "There's obviously a fixed number of Players here before the end of the month. Several go missing every day. With one fewer person, the odds of it happening to each of us go up. Do you think someone with your brains can last the full seven days?"
The square-faced man looked ready to explode, but Fang Penghui stopped him. "What do you mean, before the end of the month?"
"The hotel register gets cleared at the end of every month," Xu Huo said.
