Chapter 57 This is a personal vendetta
【Spiritual Journey】

When Xiao Ran threw out his arm, he felt a series of sharp gazes locking towards him.

Not daring to delay at all, he activated [Spiritual Movement] immediately to increase his speed to the extreme. His body was wrapped in black mist and he rushed to the fourth floor in the blink of an eye.

"what!!!"

Before Xiao Ran could catch his breath, an extremely angry roar sounded, and then Xiao Ran felt a suffocating deathly aura behind him rapidly approaching him.

He looked back at the wall behind him.

I saw a tumor-like thing on the wall spreading upwards along the wall. Wherever it passed, the walls and stairs were all corroded and assimilated by the matter split by the tumor.

And on top of the tumor, many eyeballs were staring at him. In a trance, Xiao Ran heard the cursing of many students.

"It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"

"He was the one who brought the principal here. Damn this guy!"

"We are innocent. He is the one who killed us."

"kill him!!"

That was the resentment of the students on the first floor. In fact, this riot tonight had no effect on them at all. All the night ghosts were attacking the dormitories on the higher floors. There was not even a single night ghost on the lower floors.

But it was Xiao Ran's arrival that attracted the mad principal, which led to their all deaths.

But for Xiao Ran, such resentment is no burden at all.

In his eyes, these students were not human beings. After seeing the truth from the meat stove, Xiao Ran became more certain of his thoughts.

These students are all recreated from the meat furnace.

Their souls and bodies are all products that have been reshaped in the flesh furnace and cannot be considered human beings at all.

Rushing to the fifth floor, a large amount of negative emotions began to appear in Xiao Ran's perception.

The strong negative emotions were accompanied by an almost insane murderous intent. Even Xiao Ran began to be affected. He always felt a nameless anger rushing to his head.

This level of negative emotion is not on the same level as the beggars, old men, and even embroidered shoes I encountered before.

If given a choice, Xiao Ran would rather go back to the second floor and sleep than get involved.

But obviously he had no choice. Not only that, the road ahead was filled with dangers and dangers, and he had to go in and break into it.

He took out the [Soul-Calling Banner] from the space and waved it at the tumor following closely behind him.

Privilege 1: Revelation

Use soul summoning on the target to collect the opponent's soul. For each additional soul in the soul summoning banner, you can gain 1 soul power. The stronger the soul power, the better the effect.

"Come in, you annoying flies!"

Suddenly, a suction force was seen surging out from the [Soul Calling Banner], and in an instant a scream was heard from the tumor. Then six or seven soul lights were sucked out from the tumor and instantly absorbed into the [Soul Calling Banner].

This trick may not be effective against night ghosts, but it is completely effective against these little guys trapped in the tumor.

Without the support of these ghosts, the tumor spreading around began to stagnate.

Xiao Ran took advantage of the opportunity and hurried to the sixth floor.

As soon as I reached the sixth floor, I saw two night ghosts standing in front of a dormitory door and banging on it frantically.

Strictly speaking, these two night ghosts are one person, a man and a woman. The man has a dog's head, while the woman has no face. What's even more bizarre is that they share the same body.

The sixth floor is where the core members of major campus clubs live, so needless to say, the specifications and level of the dormitories are excellent.

The couplets hanging on the wall and the talismans pasted on the door were constantly burning the two night ghosts in front of them.

But these two night ghosts didn't care about the damage on their bodies at all. There were already holes of various sizes burned on their bodies by the talismans on the door, but they were still banging on the door tirelessly.

With every punch, it felt like the entire dormitory building was shaking.

“Are all these night ghosts crazy??”

Seeing that the door was beginning to deform, Xiao Ran stepped past them without hesitation.

The night ghost had no intention of paying any attention to Xiao Ran who suddenly appeared. After all, there were too many night ghosts on the sixth floor. As long as he didn't compete with them for the dormitory, it would be fine.

What was unexpected was that the moment Xiao Ran stepped past Ye Gui, his body suddenly turned around and a pitch-black machete was pulled out from under his cloak.

"Draw your sword and kill!!"

With a powerful blow, the two night ghosts were caught off guard and the head of the woman on the left was cut off directly. The man was also stunned. He turned around and saw Xiao Ran running away with the woman's head.

"Wang!!"

The dog-headed man's eyes turned red, and he chased after Xiao Ran without caring that the dormitory was about to be broken into.

"gone?"

The six boys in the dormitory were almost frightened to death.

The gate to level ten was almost broken down, and they all thought that their lives might be over, but they didn't expect that the couple would actually run away.

“Phew! What a sudden turn of events.”

A boy wearing glasses patted his chest and said.

The other five boys looked disdainful. The guy just now was hiding in the quilt, saying something like, "God wants me dead."

But before they could open their mouths to mock, they heard a loud bang on the door.

The door was kicked open, and outside the door, Principal Dong, who was already blood-thirsty, was seen standing. Thin long blood vessels were rapidly flowing into the door like dense little snakes.

The man with glasses widened his eyes and blurted out the next sentence unconsciously: "The road ahead is long and dead end!" "Puff!!"

In an instant, the room was covered in blood and the walls were littered with minced meat.

On the other side, Xiao Ran ran all the way inside. Whenever he encountered a night ghost, no matter what kind of ghost it was, he would raise his hand and chop it with a knife first, and then run away without any hesitation.

A fat monk was leaning over a female corpse with his butt sticking out, eating it with relish. When Xiao Ran ran over, he accidentally cut a hole in his butt.

A child wearing a bellyband, holding a baby bump, met Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran raised his hand and threw the woman's head over. The child was startled and raised his hand to grab the woman's head, but when he looked again, the baby bump in his arms had been taken away by Xiao Ran.

As I ran along, there were more and more night ghosts behind me.

Gradually, Xiao Ran didn't need to do anything anymore, as many night ghosts followed the crowd and caught up.

With so many night ghosts gathered together, huge resentment gathered into a ball. Even Xiao Ran began to be affected. He felt hot all over, blood boiling, and a bloodthirsty impulse began to arise in his mind.

But at this moment, the night ghosts that were originally following Xiao Ran suddenly slowed down their pace at the same time, and even stopped gradually.

"Why don't you chase me?"

Xiao Ran was stunned, but did not slow down.

Until I turned a corner and a blood-red maple leaf suddenly floated in front of me.

The leaves just flashed in front of Xiao Ran. The next second, he wiped it with his hand. Because he had turned into a night ghost, he did not feel any bleeding, but there was a deep cut on his face.

Looking up, I saw a woman holding a bright red umbrella and dancing slowly among the maple leaves in the corridor.

The woman's feet were bare, and she was extremely focused on every movement.

Next to him was a man dressed in the uniform of a Japanese ronin, sitting cross-legged on the ground with his head lowered, one hand stroking the sword in his hand and the other holding a porcelain bowl full of blood.

The two men were blocking the middle of the road, and just the chill emanating from their bodies was enough to make Xiao Ran's muscles tense up uncontrollably.

The head that was originally heated up by various negative emotions suddenly felt like being poured with a basin of cold water.

I felt cold from head to toe.

Completely different from the negative emotions emitted by other night ghosts, what emanated from these two was an extremely pure murderous intent.

"At least level six or higher."

Xiao Ran was a little nervous, as he had never seen a sixth-level night ghost, but he was sure that these two were stronger than the beggars, much stronger.

"Just looking at their attire, they should be Japanese? Why are there Japanese night ghosts here?"

Before Xiao Ran could figure out the reason, he suddenly felt something and turned around with a headache.

In the corridor behind me, I saw the principal with red eyes, who had caught up with me at some point.

"Damn, where are those night ghosts?"

Xiao Ran's original intention was to lure all the night ghosts upstairs together, and then lead them all to the principal, letting them fight each other.

However, he didn't expect that these night ghosts would run faster than him after sensing the danger.

The principal looked up at Xiao Ran, a hint of confusion flashing in his red eyes. The smell was obviously right, but the boy in front of him was not the boy he had seen before.

Caught between the two.

Xiao Ran now has nowhere to hide.

At this time, the principal obviously also noticed the Japanese couple. After a flash of fear in his eyes, he locked his gaze on Xiao Ran.

Seeing the principal walking towards him step by step, Xiao Ran gritted his teeth, took the female corpse out of the space, and grabbed the corpse's head with his sharp fingers. Although he could not speak, he believed that the principal should understand what he meant.

As expected, when the principal saw Xiao Ran's actions, his body stiffened and he dared not move for a moment.

Seeing that this trick was indeed effective, Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief and retreated step by step towards the side stairs while holding the corpse.

As long as I get to the seventh floor, I will be sure to get rid of them first.

Who would have thought that the Japanese ronin sitting on the ground suddenly raised his head, and the cold light in his eyes seemed sharper than the blade. His movements were extremely fast, and almost in the moment when no one expected it, he had already pulled out the scabbard.

"Buzz..." accompanied by the sound of the blade being unsheathed.

Xiao Ran's heart shuddered, and he instantly had an illusion, as if the space between him and the ronin was suddenly shortened. Wherever the blade passed, a sharp wind blew, almost dividing the space in two.

“I can’t hide!!”

There was a flash of fire in Xiao Ran's pupils, and at this moment, a hot current rushed up his arm. It was the curse that Xiao Ran had written on his arm before.

The 0.5 seconds made Xiao Ran alert and he quickly put the cloak in front of him.

At the same time, activate the privilege 2 Iron Armor of the Strange Cloak.

After activation, the cloak's strength increases by 200%, providing excellent defense against physical damage, but the player's own mobility will be greatly slowed down.

"boom!!"

Xiao Ran's eyes went dark and he felt his body suddenly become lighter. A huge force penetrated from under his cloak and struck his chest. A suffocating and stinging feeling quickly spread throughout his body.

It was not until the body fell heavily to the ground that Xiao Ran raised his head again and saw that the female corpse was still standing in the original position, but in his sight, it turned into shattered dust bit by bit, and quickly spread in the air with the cool breeze as the blade was sheathed.

The corridor was filled with an atmosphere of blood and indifference, and the ronin's actions stunned everyone for a moment.

Xiao Ran was stunned for a second, then...

He smiled.

Silently, he gave the ronin a thumbs up and said, "This is a personal vendetta..."
