Terror is resurging, but only I am.

Chapter 71 (Please Subscribe!!!) T2 Tier, Ghost Eye Inheritance

"That hole is open!"

"It's in a state of waiting to be evacuated!"

Li Yan's words struck Yan Ming like a thunderclap, and he instantly grasped the importance of the information.

Yan Ming knew that the memories replaying in the node area were scenes from more than 20 years ago. They were actually fighting against evil spirits left over from more than 20 years ago.

However, he did not expect that the entire dormitory building would revert to its state more than 20 years ago, including even the wall behind the dormitory building and a hole in the wall that had been opened due to the mission's withdrawal.

That's the evacuation point!

The evacuation point, which had been closed for more than 20 years, is now open!
this means……

Can I safely evacuate Wangcheng?

In an instant, a strange hope and longing welled up in Yan Ming's heart.

In just two days since entering Wangcheng, his plans have changed dramatically.

From initially wanting to settle in Wangcheng, to now wanting to use Ghost Domain Topology to reverse the Ghost Domain and return to reality.

However, the latter plan seems to be more difficult than imagined. So far, Wangcheng Hospital and Wangcheng No. 1 Middle School alone are already in dire straits.

If we could return to reality from the mission extraction point...

He had previously judged based on Li Yan's situation that the real world might not have collapsed due to the resurgence of terrorism.

Perhaps everything was just an illusion created by the blinding ghost, and in reality, he was just a puppet, struggling to survive under the "rational logic" deliberately constructed by the blinding ghost.

Leaving from this evacuation point might allow us to temporarily escape the control of the Blindfold Ghost.

At least, he can return to the normal life he has always dreamed of.

Even if it's just for a short period of time.

A sense of inexplicable peace arose deep within Yan Ming; he had longed for this kind of life for far too long.

Wanting to settle in the Ghost Realm is nothing more than a compromise for a "peaceful" life.

But just a few seconds later, he realized something was wrong, quickly shook his head, and firmly reminded himself—

Never let up.

Even if he were to return to reality, let alone now being the time to evacuate, he wouldn't be able to truly relax.

Those ghosts have already begun to invade reality. There are players in the eerie game, and the source of that terror will eventually leak out and engulf the lives of ordinary people.

To truly attain peace, one must rely on ghost topology and transform oneself into a "ghost."

The new world turns people into ghosts.

Yan Ming regained his Dao heart and looked up at Li Yan, who was bound high up, wanting to ask him something.

"Waikira?"

The moment he opened his mouth, he realized that his current body was completely incapable of communicating normally with Li Yan.

"you……"

A look of surprise appeared on Li Yan's face. He continued, "Didn't you turn into paper figures voluntarily? I thought you did it to avoid that monster."

He realized that Yan Ming and the others were not in as good a condition as he had imagined, so evacuating in time would not be an easy task.

Li Yan struggled to lift his head and looked out the window of his dormitory. In his view, the hole behind the dormitory building was open, and the surrounding scene was marked with symbols by the unique green paint of the eerie game.

Most importantly, a green smoke grenade was placed in the center of the evacuation point, continuously releasing green smoke outwards.

This smoke does not spread outwards or affect people's vision; instead, it rises steadily upwards, typically reaching a height of tens of meters, making it visible from a great distance.

Clearly, this is an attempt to attract nearby players, announcing to the world that there is an evacuation point available for players to use.

Whether the players attracted choose to withdraw peacefully or engage in fierce combat is not something that the eerie game itself should consider.

Li Yan was well aware that these evacuation points had time constraints. Once the mission was set, after a certain waiting period, the countdown would end and everyone in the evacuation point would be teleported out of Wangcheng.

Immediately afterwards, this evacuation point will be closed, and under normal circumstances, there is absolutely no possibility of it being reopened.

The fact that the evacuation point has reopened is entirely due to the strange mechanism of the dormitory building as an "escape" side quest.

Looking at the situation at the evacuation point, Li Yan's eyes showed some worry. If Yan Ming could not escape from the dormitory building in time and missed the countdown at the evacuation point, he would lose the opportunity to leave Wangcheng once the evacuation point closed.

He didn't care at all whether he could leave or not, because he had already resigned himself to his fate.

Li Yan is now nothing more than a living corpse.

But Yan Ming is different; Yan Ming symbolizes hope.

If Yan Ming can bring the relevant theories of the Ghost Realm back to reality, then everything will turn around.

Just then, Li Yan suddenly noticed a furtive figure flash by near the evacuation point.

A middle-aged man wearing an ill-fitting high school uniform.

That is……

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, then realized that this person was the guy who had been hiding in the dormitory building before.

That's the person Yan Ming wants to chase!

That guy has actually escaped from the dormitory building. Is he waiting to be evacuated at the evacuation point?

In an instant, Li Yan confirmed the authenticity of the evacuation point.

Because he learned from Yan Ming that this middle-aged man was a player who was left behind in Wangcheng more than 20 years ago, and the other party must know about the existence of the evacuation point.

If Li Yan had previously doubted that the evacuation point could be reopened as a result, he is now basically certain.

"The middle-aged man has already escaped; he's waiting at the evacuation point!"

Li Yan informed Yan Ming of this news.

At this moment, Yan Ming and the others were struggling to climb the bed next to them, trying to climb up little by little to rescue Li Yan, who was hanging there.

Yan Ming was also delighted upon hearing the news.

The middle-aged man had repeatedly experienced escape missions from the dormitory building, so it was not surprising that he escaped smoothly with ease.

If the middle-aged man can walk, it means they can walk too; the iron gate at the other end of the corridor has likely already been opened by him!
The fact that the evacuation point only had middle-aged men is enough to show that the reality the evacuation point leads to is not more than 20 years ago, but the normal time that Yan Ming is in.

However, the only problem now is...

How can I turn from a paper doll back into a normal person?

The paper figures cannot pass through that door; they had already tried that before.

By the way, did Li Yan just think they turned into paper figures on their own?

Normal players, seeing their appearance, would only think they are under some kind of curse, right?
Li Yan likely knows something.

So Yan Ming jumped around frantically, pointing to his paper doll body and then to Li Yan.

"Don't you know how to turn back into a human?"

Li Yan reacted quickly and immediately realized this, so he quickly said, "Dormitory 2103 in front is the territory of a group of paper figures. There is a shrinking tunnel inside. If you go through it in the opposite direction, you can turn from a paper figure back into a human."

Li Yan looked at Yan Ming and the others who were still working hard, hesitated for a moment, and finally squeezed out the ghost eye on his forehead, which fell to the ground.

He said to Yan Ming:

"Don't worry about me. This ghost eye contains the map rule 'Peeping at All Evils,' and I've already upgraded it to Tier T2. Eat it, escape the dormitory building, and you can use it normally."

"With this, you can easily contend with the veteran players at that extraction point."

"I request that you report what you know about the ghost domain theory to your superiors."
