High Heels and the Last Day of the Game

[Total Nightmare Coins: 683]

Having had a lot of fun playing last night, he bought a few charm-boosting little props on the trading network, raising Tong Qi's and Wang Yazhi's comfort levels to 94 and 95 respectively, while Cao Yaxuan reached her peak so far at 98 comfort.

Although it only brought a tiny bit more Nightmare Coin revenue, Xu Lang had already decided that these comfort levels could only go up from now on, never down.

Buying things like rabbit ears and silk stockings only cost a hundred or so copper coins.

Yet, one extra Nightmare Coin could save a life at a critical moment.

Lang Ge~ Tong Qi grabbed Xu Lang's mischievous hand, her gaze pleading.

They had played way too wildly last night, and just thinking about it this morning made a person feel ashamed.

Xu Lang let out a pleased, low hum, displaying the homeowner's absolute control over his tenants.

Tong Qi bit her lip, suppressing her voice.

Little did she know that Cao Yaxuan and Wang Yazhi were already awake, a fact that could be judged entirely from the sound of their breathing.

Xu Lang rolled straight over and engaged in a round of "morning exercise" with Tong Qi.

Today was another uneventful day too.

Time flew like a white horse passing a crevice, a night seemingly flashing by in an instant.

Early in the morning, Xu Lang learned through the chat room that Wu Huihui had gone to the supermarket, so he had her purchase some things on his behalf.

The total consumption was 300 copper coins.

They were all footwear items.

The final result was quite sorrowful.

Only when Wang Yazhi put on a pair of milk-white high heels did her comfort level increase by 1 point; Tong Qi and Cao Yaxuan's comfort levels did not increase after putting them on, perhaps because they didn't match the style of those shoes.

This Tuesday morning, Wang Yazhi suffered terrible luck.

"Sigh..."

Seeing that Xu Lang and the others were all asleep, Cao Yaxuan sighed inwardly, her heart quite melancholic.

She was very happy that Xu Lang bought gifts for them.

Little Langzi bought a gift for Sister Ya, so Sister Ya was very happy.

However, Sister Ya really disliked the way Little Langzi aggressively charged at Wang Yazhi.

Hmph, what a bad thing, you'll die in bed sooner or later! With a grunting snort, Cao Yaxuan turned her head and went right to sleep.

"What should I do? I won't get pregnant, right?"

Wang Yazhi had only closed her eyes and hadn't truly fallen asleep.

Pregnancy—this was something all three women worried about.

Yet, in this kind of environment, expecting them to practice safe sex was honestly a bit of black humor.

Right now inside the dormitory building, couple dormitories were by no means few, but there was practically not a single person who had the leisure of mind to use safety measures.

If you actually went out to buy some little umbrellas, people would only treat you as a fool.

If you could survive a month, you were badass; who would care about what happened afterward!

Even so, although they said that, everyone basically thought of this matter afterward and inevitably felt worried about it.

Searching for pregnancy-related videos on Douyin, the comments with the most likes at the bottom were those about picking up Aunt Flo, picking up Aunt Flo for your girlfriend.

There was no help for it; the matter of pregnancy was seriously a big deal.

Let's survive this round of game first, and next time we'll see if we can get Xu Lang outside...

Tong Qi had her back to the wall, her large eyes blinking and blinking, likewise not asleep.

The only one who truly dropped off to sleep the moment they finished business was Xu Lang.

However, unlike the two women, she was thinking about other things.

How on earth should I allocate my stat points? I really want to help Lang Ge too.

The way Xu Lang had solo-killed the veteran player was so cool, and it also made Tong Qi feel a sense of self-reproach.

She felt she was too useless; aside from cooking and cleaning, she couldn't help Xu Lang with anything.

I can't sleep. I might as well check out the chat room more.

The next day, 5:00 PM.

[Game countdown: 1 day, 1 hour, and 01 minute]

[Base Nightmare Coins: 56, conversion rate: 308%, output for eight hours: 228 Nightmare Coins]

[Total Nightmare Coins: 911]

This was the first time Xu Lang possessed this many Nightmare Coins, and to say he wasn't excited would be a lie.

Suppressing the thrill brought by a one-click upgrade, Xu Lang took a deep breath, got out of bed, and did two push-ups.

Tong Qi quietly cracked open a slit of her eye, and seeing Xu Lang putting effort into the floor, her heartstrings secretly relaxed.

At least he wasn't putting effort into her.

"Xu Lang, why are you doing that kind of thing today?" Cao Yaxuan stretched lazily and asked as she looked at Xu Lang.

"What's wrong with doing push-ups?" A trace of confusion flashed in Xu Lang's eyes.

Doing push-ups made it easy to sweat, and having Cao Yaxuan and the others mop the floor afterward was indeed a bit troublesome, but this wasn't worth mentioning, was it?

The only reason he could think of for Cao Yaxuan to say this was that.

"Don't you know the dormitory floor is sacred and inviolable?" Cao Yaxuan snorted.

Xu Lang's face darkened; he flipped over, sprang directly to his feet, and walked toward Cao Yaxuan.

A homeowner's rights over their tenants were limitless!

Once six o'clock passed, there were only twenty-three hours left until the start of the next round of the game!

Competition among players reached a fever pitch on this day, and the mutual crushing had reached its absolute limit.

Consequently, two murder cases occurred.

The perpetrators were residents of the fourth and third floors, respectively.

With this, the residents of the fourth and third floors instantly blew their tops, threatening to storm the dormitories of those two Blood Hatred players right at the start of the game and make the two of them die first.

Xu Lang silently lurked, lest he draw fire onto himself.

He carried Blood Hatred on his own back, after all.

Amidst the clamor, new residents arrived.

A portion of players with some experience grumbled endlessly, saying that the more people there were in the dormitory building, the greater the game difficulty.

Yet, another portion of veteran players were unconcerned about this, feeling it was mere superstition.

Having observed for so many days, Xu Lang had more or less figured it out.

The most superstitious ones were precisely these veteran players; certain theories were just like priming the pump for a game gacha—some people treated them as supreme dogma, while others sneered at them.

Xu Lang casually ripped open a bag of potato chips, eating while he began to ponder.

It seems the seniority of all veteran players doesn't exceed three periods.

With so many experts around now, I'm no longer inconspicuous.

That former genius Wang Ao has now been reduced to a small-time nobody.

Wu Huihui is doing all right, though; her people make up the majority in the tenth-floor dormitory, and she has basically secured the position of Floor Leader.

Floor Leader—this was the title given to the boss of each floor.

The first floor had a first-floor Floor Leader, and the second floor had a second-floor Floor Leader.

This didn't mean the Floor Leader was necessarily the strongest person on a given floor, but rather the one with the most leadership ability.

On the final day before the game started, the candidates for Floor Leader had already been decided, with veteran players serving as Floor Leaders on the bottom nine floors.

There was no help for it; some veteran players had transferred over together with their tenants—a whole nest of veterans whose strength was simply too top-tier for novices to handle.

Only the tenth floor was rather eccentric.

Because Wu Huihui loved shielding her little sisters, most of the dormitories on the tenth floor had people in them, so outsiders couldn't transfer in, nor did any veteran players come to seize them.

The top and bottom floors, as well as the far left and far right, were generally the worst locations.

It was either a god-tier opening or a game-over opening.

And given the nature of dormitory survival games, game-over openings were generally more common.

Likewise, there were also some numbers people were wary of, such as a strong aversion to the house number 4...

In short, opinions varied wildly.

"Lang Ge, today is the last day of the rest period." Tong Qi said in a declarative tone.

There was a sense of emotional weight and worry in her eyes, alongside a deep sense of resistance.

Aside from madmen and ambitious schemers, no one wanted to play this ghost of a game.

"We will definitely survive." Wang Yazhi patted Tong Qi's shoulder, her red lips pressed into a straight line.

Xu Lang chuckled and stated with certainty, "We will make it into the top ten. Inside Purgatory, we will be the vanguard!"

Even though he had coasted all the way here, he truly had the qualifications to say these words.

A carried victory was still a victory, wasn't it?

In truth, the configuration of Xu Lang's dormitory wasn't bad; aside from the main door, everything else matched up to the standards of veteran players, and on top of that, he had a rare Guardian Spirit guarding the premises.

If not for the Guardian Spirit's setting of only recognizing a single homeowner, some veteran players would definitely have come to seize the dormitory by now.
