The Second Round, A Powerful Level 2 Monster!

Dormitory 2, First Floor.

Thunder's expression darkened.

"Brother Thunder, should we go up there and take that kid out?" a short girl asked viciously.

If Xu Lang's dormitory had been in ruins, they would not have been worried.

Because anyone who had it rough in the first round usually did not end well.

But the problem was, Xu Lang's facilities were all completely intact!

That meant something entirely different!

"Not a good idea. Don't assume there are no experts here and underestimate this round of the game." Another boy wearing glasses shook his head and said cautiously, "An ordinary dormitory building wouldn't have two hundred slots. The difficulty of this game is definitely unusual. Now isn't the time for infighting."

There were five people in Thunder's dormitory. Apart from that girl, the others were all third-phase players and were similarly cautious, so they echoed his opinion.

"Yeah, Brother Thunder. Although this is a ghost-type dungeon and your lightning-element skills give you a huge advantage, don't really think we're guaranteed to win this round."

"The veteran players we've met only get more cautious with age. The situation is great right now, so there's no need to go looking for excitement. If Xu Lang's death causes the situation on the tenth floor to collapse and drags the other floors into it, we'll be in serious trouble!"

Hearing all three of them say this, Thunder took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "I know. Even if we make a move, it won't be now."

They were on the first floor. Going all the way to the tenth floor to kill Xu Lang, then figuring out how to break down his door, would take too much time.

If anything unexpected happened along the way, their entire group might very well get wiped out.

"A wise decision." The bespectacled boy smiled.

When it came to murder, breaking down doors, and robbery, no one present thought there was anything wrong with it. They were merely weighing the pros and cons.

This was the Dormitory Survival Game!

No one talked about morality here, nor did anyone speak of honor. Everything depended on one's own abilities!

That was also one of the things the bespectacled boy liked about this game.

Dormitory 200. Xu Lang and the other three stared at the clock, waiting for the next round to begin.

"Yazhi, learn this." Xu Lang suddenly took out the Basic Swordsmanship Skill Scroll.

Although he believed that, with over a thousand Nightmare Coins in hand, it was unlikely that his door would be breached during the early stages of the game, there was always the possibility of an accident.

If Wang Yazhi learned Basic Swordsmanship, she could be of some help as well.

"This... thank you!" Wang Yazhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and accepted it, rarely not refusing.

Tong Qi and Cao Yaxuan said nothing either.

After all, they were already so close.

"No need to thank me. It was meant for you in the first place." Xu Lang shook his head.

He was not interested in swordsmanship. Learning it would be less useful than stacking more firepower with firearms.

Wang Yazhi took a soft breath, accepted the skill scroll, and said solemnly, "Xu Lang, I promise that my future value, Wang Yazhi's future value, will definitely exceed this skill scroll!"

That was the confidence that allowed her to accept the skill scroll so openly!

Hearing that, Xu Lang flicked Wang Yazhi on the forehead. "Your value, Yaxuan's value, and Tong's value are all immeasurable. Don't say something like that again."

Wang Yazhi's value had long surpassed that of the skill scroll. She simply did not know it.

"Okay." Wang Yazhi nodded, deeply moved inside.

She turned around and wiped the corner of her eye with the back of her smooth hand before immediately using the skill scroll.

"Sister Yazhi, how do you feel?" Tong Qi asked, her eyes sparkling.

Wang Yazhi performed a flourish with her sword and replied, "It feels like I have some swordsmanship memories and combat experience in my head now."

"That's pretty good." Cao Yaxuan smiled.

Xu Lang looked at Wang Yazhi and felt that she stood out even more with a sword in hand, like a female sword immortal in flowing white robes.

Unfortunately, after checking her information, he found that her comfort level had not increased.

The three watched Wang Yazhi practice her sword, and time quickly passed.

[Dormitory Broadcast: The second round of Fierce Ghost Soul Return has officially begun. Duration: 1 hour. Please kill more monsters and maintain your ranking on the leaderboard.]

The four of them readied themselves, their eyes fixed on the surveillance screen. At the same time, they opened the chatroom to see whether there was any important information.

Suddenly, a stream of white mist drifted in from the stairwell and entered the corridor.

Xu Lang frowned. Before he could think further, a ringing sound came from within the white mist.

The sound made him feel deeply unsettled, as though he were hearing some infrasonic wave that the human body could not tolerate.

"So annoying!" Cao Yaxuan covered her ears.

Xu Lang turned and said, "Go find something to block your ears."

In fact, before he even said it, Wang Yazhi had already cut off a corner of her robe, made earplugs from it, and handed them to Xu Lang and the others.

By then, white mist had already filled the entire corridor.

Immediately after, a hopping creature burst onto the surveillance screen!

[Zombie]

[Type: Undead]

[Level: 2]

[Skills: Bite, Blood Feast, Corpse Poison, Iron Bones]

[Description: First, take a sip of your closest kin's blood...]

The moment Xu Lang saw the panel, his head filled with question marks.

Were these stats for real!?

A level-two monster with four skills!

Aside from its poor mobility, it completely crushed level-two zombies!

Xu Lang's mouth twitched. Seeing more hopping zombies within the dense mist, he knew things had become troublesome.

Just from the skill Iron Bones alone, it was clear that these zombies were absolutely the "break-down-the-door" type!

And with that strange bell ringing, the monsters were probably more complicated than just zombies!

The moment the zombies appeared, their eerie green eyes turned toward Dormitory No. 200's door.

Blood Hatred was still in effect and would not disappear until the end of this round.

What's more, Xu Lang lived in an edge dormitory to begin with!

Only some big shots deliberately chose edge dormitories, since they made farming points more convenient. Likewise, that also meant edge dormitories were the most dangerous!
