Old Players Arrive, Target is Xu Lang!

"Xu Lang, hurry and check the chatroom!" Cao Yaxuan cried out.

Xu Lang froze for a moment, then hurriedly opened the chatroom and clicked on Liu Quan's profile.

[Name: Liu Quan]

[Seniority: Phase Three]

[Room Number: 57 (Owner)]

A Phase Three player!

Xu Lang's brows furrowed deeply.

A player with two whole tiers more seniority had shown up right away.

At this moment, the chatroom was buzzing.

[32 Ye Fan: Holy shit, a Phase Three big shot! Please carry me!]

[88 Cao Bin: Senior, how exactly do you play this game?]

[84 Li Wang: @Liu Quan, big bro, please carry me!]

[191 Sun Yan: @Liu Quan, big bro, do you still have tenant slots in your room? Could you add me?]

[57 Liu Quan: Heh. Looks like I'm the only veteran player here. When I arrived, I checked your information. You should all be from a newly unsealed building, right? I'll only ask one question: who took the unsealing gift pack?]

[44 Lin Bao: Xu Lang from Dormitory 200 took it!]

[57 Liu Quan: @Xu Lang, hand over the goods, and I can spare your life!]

Xu Lang's brows knitted tightly.

The moment this man arrived, he pointed his gun straight at him.

"Brother Lang, what do we do?" Tong Qi asked nervously.

This veteran player didn't look like a good person. With how arrogant he was acting, he definitely had something to rely on.

"Let him come," Xu Lang said calmly.

Tong Qi immediately felt reassured.

Cao Yaxuan said angrily, "Perfect. The repeating crossbow doesn't have a target yet—when he gets here, shoot him dead!"

Wang Yazhi's eyes were filled with worry.

Although players had never clashed head-on before, a Phase Three player's physical abilities were surely far beyond those of an ordinary person. He might even have plenty of strange and bizarre items.

[57 Liu Quan: Anyone willing to follow me, gather on the third floor. @Wang Ao, you're the floor leader of the third floor, right? Have all your lackeys follow me. In the next round, you can just sit back and relax.]

Xu Lang's gaze flickered.

Now he understood why Liu Quan had stepped on Wang Ao the moment he arrived. He was building momentum for himself.

People like this were even harder to deal with than brainless lunatics!

In the third-floor corridor, more than a dozen players gathered.

The cruel Dormitory Survival Game made them desperately crave the authority of someone above them—someone like a senior or a guide—just as humans loved creating gods.

Seeing that so few players had come, Liu Quan frowned. "No one else?"

"Brother Quan, probably not. Most of the players are on the tenth floor," Sun Heng said with a grin, rubbing his hands together.

Some people didn't even know what to say, so they simply started laying it on thick.

"Brother Quan, you really look mighty and extraordinary."

This great god could truly lead them to survival. There was no harm in sucking up to him a little.

Liu Quan stroked his unkempt full beard, his expression turning strange. "Alright, stop flattering me. Come with me to the tenth floor."

"Brother Quan, are you going to rob Xu Lang? He has a gun, so be careful," a male student said with an ingratiating smile.

"A gun is usually a Level Two weapon. It's nothing much." Liu Quan shook his head dismissively.

As they talked, the group headed toward the tenth floor.

Along the way, quite a few people spilled everything they knew about Xu Lang. They sold him out completely, afraid that speaking too late would fail to catch Liu Quan's attention.

"Xu Lang is a huge pervert. There are three beauties in his room!"

"Xu Lang has a steel door, and he has two Swift Repeating Crossbows!"

"Xu Lang bought Meditation..."

Liu Quan waved a hand. "How much do the most expensive items in each of the five sections of your supermarket cost?"

A thick-browed male student quickly said, "I know this. The most expensive item in the Item Section is a Level Four battle axe, priced at 19,999 copper coins. As for the Facilities Section..."

After hearing his explanation, Liu Quan stared at him. "What's your name?"

"My name is Liu Qiang. We share the same surname, Brother Quan!" the thick-browed student said with a cheerful smile.

Liu Quan nodded meaningfully. "Your intelligence-gathering ability is quite good. Come be my tenant later."

Liu Qiang was overjoyed.

Liu Quan continued, "Here's a little tip: after each game ends, the most expensive item refreshed in the supermarket is often the best value for money. If you can buy it, you've made a profit."

"Hehe, but we don't have that much money," Liu Qiang said with a chuckle.

Liu Quan shook his head.

"That's a problem with how you play."

"I'll teach you how to save money and farm monsters later!"

"For now, tell me what items you found over the past two days. Don't hide anything."

Liu Qiang hesitated.

There were too many miscellaneous items; he did not know where to begin.

Liu Quan said seriously, "Mention the more distinctive items. The properties of things you find during your rest periods are often related to the content of the next round of the game!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began chiming in at once.

Liu Quan's expression remained calm until he heard of the two items, "Red Sleeve Shoes" and "Red Lantern." His brows suddenly twitched.

"Brother Quan, what's wrong?" Liu Qiang keenly caught Liu Quan's abnormal reaction and immediately looked deeply concerned, as though Liu Quan were his young wife.

"Nothing. It's only the second day, so the signs aren't obvious yet. The game's characteristics will gradually become clearer later," Liu Quan said in a low voice after taking a deep breath.

He hoped it was not what he thought.

Red Sleeve Shoes and Red Lantern inevitably made people think of Chinese-style horror.

Liu Qiang gave his signature chuckle again and asked, "Brother Quan, can you tell us how you got to our dormitory building?"

"There are many different ways to play the survival game, and the items will become more diverse as well. You'll understand once you get further in. Moving between dormitory buildings isn't difficult," Liu Quan explained impatiently.

The others fell silent as well.

Because they had reached the tenth floor.

In Dormitory 200, Xu Lang learned that Liu Quan had brought people upstairs, and his expression turned grave.

This might be the greatest crisis he had encountered since entering the Dormitory Survival Game.

More than ten people, plus an experienced player—one steel door definitely would not hold them off!

[44 Wang Ao: Xu Lang, do you want to work together and take out Liu Quan?]

Just then, a private message popped up.

Xu Lang's furrowed brows relaxed as he turned off the private-message notification.

Even Wu Huihui, who was closer to him, had said nothing at a time like this, much less Wang Ao. He simply could not be trusted.

Earlier, he and Wang Ao had been at each other's throats, yet now Wang Ao had turned around and suggested cooperation.

That shamelessness...

Honestly, people like him might be the ones best suited for the Dormitory Survival Game.

Xu Lang's group of four kept staring tensely at the surveillance monitor.

When they saw Liu Quan truly lead a group of people into the surveillance range, Cao Yaxuan immediately followed Xu Lang's earlier instructions and switched the Swift Repeating Crossbow to automatic attack mode.
