Blood Calamity-What Happened Beneath and Within the Buildings
Titan Ruins.
Shadow Prison Building.
Safe Zone, the Gothic-style building stands majestically, topped with two searchlights that resemble the eyes of a troll.
Suddenly, a black tide was released from the bottom of the Shadow Prison Building, quickly covering all the Safe Zone.
The monsters that burst out of the Blood Mist World are immediately engulfed in the black tide, as if they have sunk into another world and disappeared completely.
Hehehehe~
On the top floor, a man with a birthmark on his left cheek cackled, "All the characteristics of our Shadow Prison Building are for defense; we'll definitely survive this round of Blood Calamity!"
Another young man chuckled maliciously and chimed in, "The other Dormitory Building will be in trouble then!"
The two are twins; one has a birthmark on her left cheek, and the other on her right.
Just then, a third voice broke in.
"Tsk tsk, our Shadow Prison Building is just too difficult. We dare not choose the development trait, which is why we are almost at the third tier, but our foundation is still so weak."
"This Blood Calamity is our opportunity."
"Once the other Dormitory Building are exhausted by the Blood Calamity, it will be time for us to take over the battlefield!"
"Haha, I've always heard that there are huge rewards for capturing other Dormitory Building. I wonder what Shadow Prison Building will reward us with!"
The speaker was a handsome man with a thin jawline; he was undeniably handsome, but in a way that transcended the ordinary, suggesting he had put considerable effort into enhancing his charm.
"Xiao Wu, Da Wu, the boss asked me to ask you, have you found out the information you were tasked with gathering?" the handsome man asked.
"Brother Chen, you can rest assured that we'll handle things!" The young man with a birthmark on his left cheek took out a GPS device with three red dots on it.
The handsome man's gaze swept past the other two red dots, then fixed on the leftmost red dot, his eyes gleaming.
The other two red dots are Shadow Prison Building's old enemies, nothing much to say about them.
The young man with a birthmark on his left cheek pointed to a red dot on the far left and said, "This is the Dormitory Building we discovered in the ' Ghost Mausoleum.' It wasn't there before; it must have been recently unsealed!"
Upon hearing this, the handsome man's eyes instantly lit up with an alarming brightness, and his gaze became incredibly excited.
"Haha, there's a newly opened dorm for newbies, and it's so close to us! We're rich!"
Just then, a green-haired girl with curly hair jumped onto the roof, her sleeves fluttering, a joyful smile on her face, like a little Demon.
The girl was extremely beautiful, with a high crown of her head, a swan-like neck, square shoulders, and snow-white skin, but unfortunately, her height was less than ideal.
"Don't be too happy yet. It wouldn't be good if this building couldn't withstand the Blood Calamity and became Forbidden Land." The handsome man took a deep breath to calm his racing heart.
"That makes sense. I hope they'll step up their game." The girl with the curly hair nodded repeatedly, her shadow behind her menacingly menacing, as if hiding many monsters.
"This building should be fine," the man with a birthmark on his right cheek said hesitantly. "This building seems to be the Mad King Building."
"I think I've heard rumors about this building before. It seems they've been targeted by the Strange Tales Building, a zero-level Dormitory Building," the handsome man said thoughtfully.
The girl with the curly hair said hurriedly, "Then we need to hurry over after the Blood Calamity is over, lest the Strange Tales Building take advantage of us!"
The handsome man frowned, thought for a moment, and then nodded, saying, "Okay!"
The expedition route can start from the Mad King Building, or it can be divided into two groups.
The other two buildings are slightly better than the Mad King Building; one is a first-tier building, and the other is a second-tier building.
Pick the easiest target first, collect the rewards for successfully conquering the first two buildings, and then move on to conquering the other two. This way, the snowball effect will grow bigger and bigger.
Grandmaster Building.
Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor sneezed, glanced at the blood-red rain outside the window, and muttered, "The doors and windows should be tightly closed, so why do I feel a chill?"
Upon hearing this, the tenants' expressions changed, and they hurriedly went to check to make sure that everything was securely sealed and no wind or rain had gotten in.
"Don't scare us, Sister Nian!" Tao Xiu patted her chest and said.
Those who were drenched in the blood rain were all mutated into blood-corpse monsters. Unless they possessed Mythic or higher-level purification abilities, death was the only outcome.
Because of the incubation period, many of the Grandmaster Building buildings were breached from the inside.
At the critical moment, the Floor Leader voted to use the dormitory's special properties to purify everyone's abnormal status in one go; otherwise, the fate of the Grandmaster Building would have been extremely tragic.
This trait was originally meant to provide a shield along with purification, intended for Grandmaster Building players to use when charging out, and had a very long cooldown. However, it was used on the first day of the Blood Calamity.
"The storm is raging, when will this bloody rain finally stop?" a woman even more mature than Tao Xiu sighed.
She had a full bust and a great figure, her face showed signs of aging, and her eyes and brows exuded a mature woman's charm.
These are the new tenants recruited after the Enlightenment Studio's journey to the Netherworld.
"I don't know, but as long as Blood Rain exists, the combat power of us fighting-style players will always be suppressed." Hundred Flowers Thought Emperor's expression became more solemn.
Although it is a second-tier Dormitory Building, the situation in the Grandmaster Building is not optimistic. Compared with players in other buildings, players in the Grandmaster Building mainly invest their resources in themselves.
And now, with blood raining down outside, their individual strength is essentially sealed off.
"Hehe, maybe our Grandmaster Building will be the first Dormitory Building to collapse," Tao Xiu said with an awkward laugh.
After he finished speaking, he realized that everyone was looking at him, and immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he secretly slapped himself.
I have such low emotional intelligence.
Heavenly Demon Building.
This is a top-tier Tier 3 Dormitory Building in the Titan Ruins. Each dormitory is extremely luxurious, and the Safe Zone has been expanded by a great distance.
At this moment, three players in the corridor were soaked in blood, but they showed no signs of distress, as if nothing had happened.
All three were very charismatic and dressed impeccably.
"Do you think this rain will stop? Or will it keep raining during the Blood Calamity?"
"I don't know... The Heavenly Demon Broadcast warned that there might be a flood at the end of the Crimson End."
"It should be fine. The Heavenly Demon Pool is already draining water; it seems to really enjoy this blood rain."
"Tsk tsk, have you guys noticed that the Heavenly Demon Building has been acting very strangely lately? The closer we get to obtaining the ten Building Lord's tokens, the more restless it becomes. It might even use this Blood Calamity to cause some trouble!"
As the group was discussing, the door to a nearby dormitory room suddenly opened, and a handsome, snake-like man stepped out.
A man with high-bridged eyebrows and a masculine air turned his head and asked in a cold voice, "Speaking up?"
"Yes, the Strange Tale and curses did indeed begin spreading from Xia Xingyuan, and..." The snake-like handsome man took a deep breath, his face suddenly flushing, and said in a deep voice, "He's willing to exchange a token of the Building Lord for his life!"
These words acted like a silencing spell; instantly, even the sound of the rain seemed to diminish, drifting far, far away.
The next second.
The three exuded a powerful and ferocious aura, and the blood rain was evaporated before it even got close!
Without questioning the snake-like handsome man, the three of them walked towards Thousand Illusions Dormitory almost simultaneously, without any hesitation.
Watching the three figures disappear into the distance, a hint of apprehension flashed in the snake-like handsome man's eyes before he followed them inside.
All three were the Floor Leader of the Heavenly Demon Building. They had gotten together by chance out of interest and were chatting about all sorts of things when they came across the recently popular Magic Box Curse.
These three people are also cursed, which is why this matter was brought up.
It's useless for one person to remove the Magic Box Curse, because it will quickly spread to others. You either have to completely isolate yourself from all the curses, or you'll suffer together, which is very troublesome.
As they talked, the group eventually pulled out Xia Xingyuan.
Sometimes, the casual conversations of important people can really kill.
Inside the Enlightenment Studio, Xia Xingyuan's tenants lay dead or injured in a corner. The main gate and the cannon were undamaged because three important figures were standing in the corridor; they had let the people in on their own initiative.
At this moment, Xia Xingyuan sat on the sofa, his skin peeled off, his fingernails gone, and his pinkish-white body twitching from time to time, like a bullfrog that hadn't been properly cleaned.
His deathly red eyes darted around, looking at the three Floor Leader, and he actually forced himself to stand up. "Greetings, Floor Leader!"
His voice sounded like a broken bellows, and the ligaments in his neck trembled as he spoke.
The man with high-set brow bones remained silent, his tiger-like eyes burning brightly, as if flames were leaping within them.
The female Floor Leader with upturned eyebrows also remained silent, her eyes flashing blue as she stared at Xia Xingyuan, seemingly activating a detection skill.
Another slightly overweight male Floor Leader, wearing an executive jacket, quickly went up to them, looking concerned, and said, "Tell Red Snake to go easy on you, just ask a few questions. How did he manage to hurt you like this? Are you alright?"
