The "Survival on the Train" game has bugs, it's really laggy!

The sound waves transformed into tangible, visible white shockwaves, sweeping wildly in all directions like a tsunami!

"Snap! Snap! Snap!"

All the crystal glasses, decorative glassware, and even the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the banquet hall were instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks under the terrifying sonic boom, and then with a "crash," they all exploded into a sky full of shimmering powder!

"My God!"

The money-guarding spirit let out a strange cry in fright. Its body, woven from straw, was blown away like a leaf caught in a gale by the shockwave.

Even more terrifying, the sound waves seemed to strike the soul directly. Its spirit was jolted out of the straw doll with a "whoosh," tumbling in mid-air in terror, its light flickering as if it were about to dissipate at any moment.

It watched in horror as the white shockwave surged toward its patron without any obstruction!

Finished!

Even with such a powerful physique, our patron couldn't withstand something that directly attacks the soul, right?

However, Su Yuan simply stood there, not even lifting his eyelids.

The terrifying sound waves, powerful enough to shatter spirits, struck him like a gentle breeze, causing only a slight sway of his clothes before having no other effect.

He even picked at his ears, feeling that it was a bit noisy.

His physical constitution of 78.9 and perception of 119.3 made his body and soul incredibly resilient. This level of sonic attack was like listening to a rock concert to him; at most, he might feel that the lead singer's voice was a little cracked.

"this one?"

Su Yuan pursed his lips, looking somewhat disappointed.

His action seemed to have thoroughly enraged the being in mid-air.

The music got louder, and the originally flat and empty rhythm began to become more exciting.

In the dance floor, the hundreds of "guests" who were originally stiff in their movements suddenly shuddered upon hearing the variation of the dance music.

Thick, black blood, like oil, began to flow from their empty eye sockets.

They all turned their heads in unison, their necks cracking as they rotated 180 degrees, and hundreds of empty eye sockets, dripping with black blood, were fixed on Su Yuan!

The next second, they moved!

It was no longer the elegant yet rigid waltz of the past, but an extremely distorted and swift death dance!

Their limbs swung wildly at angles that defied human anatomy, their bodies spinning rapidly on the smooth floor like drunken tops, creating gusts of cold wind as they pounced towards Su Yuan!

[WARNING: You have entered the special rules zone "Death Waltz"!]

Danger level: 2.5 stars.

Rule 1: Once you are pulled onto the dance floor, you must keep up with the beat of the music and perform the correct dance steps.

[Rule Two: Any incorrect dance step will be considered a desecration of the Queen. Your body will be forcibly twisted and torn apart by the power of this rule, until death.]

Rule 3: You may not leave the dance floor until the music ends.

"A rule that guarantees death?"

Su Yuan looked at the system notification that appeared in his mind, and then at the "dance partners" who were rushing towards him like ghosts, and a playful smile appeared on his face.

"This is interesting. They're forcing me to dance with you guys."

He cracked his wrist, making a "crackling" sound.

"What a pity."

Su Yuan grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth. In the dimly lit banquet hall, his smile appeared particularly sinister.

"I can't dance, I can only cause trouble!"

The moment the words fell!

"boom--!"

A violent shockwave erupted from Su Yuan's center!

He didn't even use the power of lightning; he used only his physical strength to send the "dance partners" who first rushed towards him flying!

Immediately afterwards, Su Yuan flicked his right hand, and the exaggeratedly shaped [Evil-Slaying War Hammer], which was much taller than him, appeared out of thin air in his hand.

He hoisted the heavy warhammer onto his shoulder, feeling its familiar weight, and a surge of exhilarating pleasure welled up from the bottom of his heart.

"Come on, all of you, die!"

Su Yuan let out a low roar, and with a sudden burst of power, he charged towards the dark mass of corpses like a tiger among sheep!

"Bang!"

A male corpse dressed in a tuxedo spun around and rushed toward Su Yuan, reaching out its withered, claw-like hand, trying to pull him into the dance floor of death.

Su Wo didn't even glance at it. With a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air, the Demon-Slaying War Hammer in his hand cleaved down from top to bottom in a simple and unadorned split!

"Pfft!"

The corpse, along with its once-decent tuxedo, exploded into a bloody, black mess, like a watermelon struck head-on by a battering ram.

Minced flesh and black blood mingled together, splattering everywhere.

One strike!

Just one hammer blow!

Without pausing for a moment, Su Yuan swung his warhammer and charged wildly across the dance floor like a tireless bull.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Deep, muffled thuds echoed throughout the hall.

With each hammer blow, one or more corpses would inevitably be smashed into an indistinguishable mass of mangled flesh.

Su Yuan's attack was simple, brutal, and devoid of any skill, yet it was extremely effective.

In the face of absolute power, any rules or techniques seem so pale and powerless.

He doesn't need to follow the rules of the "Death Waltz" at all. All he needs to do is use the most direct method to physically exorcise all these annoying "dance partners"!

Just as Su Yuan was getting into the swing of things and was preparing to clear out the entire dance floor in one go,

"hiss--"

An extreme sense of danger came from above his head without warning!

Su Yuan suddenly looked up.

The bride's corpse, Odette, who had been hanging under the crystal chandelier, had somehow cut the white ribbon that had been binding her neck.

Her body did not fall.

Instead, it resembled a gecko, its limbs twisted in reverse, clinging tightly to the ceiling in an extremely bizarre posture!

Her magnificent black wedding dress seemed to come alive at that moment, with countless black threads extending from it, like a spider web, covering the entire ceiling.

Her head was twisted at a terrifying 180-degree angle, her eyes, filled with resentment and madness, staring intently at Su Yuan below.

The next second, her body moved!

She was like a giant, disgusting black spider, crawling rapidly across the ceiling on all fours, so fast that only afterimages could be seen!

In the blink of an eye, she had already climbed directly above Su Yuan!

Her black wedding dress suddenly trembled, and the hem instantly transformed into countless sharp black spikes, raining down like a storm, relentlessly stabbing towards Su Yuan's throat, heart, temples, and all other vital areas!

This strike was swift, accurate, and ruthless!

They blocked all of Su Yuan's escape routes!

"Well done!"

Su Yuan's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. He did not choose to dodge, but instead slammed the Demon-Slaying War Hammer in his hand heavily onto the ground!

"Immovable as a mountain!"

Om-!

A thick force field, almost invisible to the naked eye, instantly spread out from him!

"Ding ding ding ding—!"

A dense, crisp sound, like raindrops hitting banana leaves, rang out wildly.

Those black spikes, sharp enough to pierce through steel plates, seemed to hit an invisible wall the moment they struck Su Yuan's skin, and were forcefully bounced away!

With a 30% damage reduction and Su Yuan's abnormal physical defense, Odette's determined attack couldn't even scratch his skin!

"My turn!"

Su Yuan grinned, and taking advantage of the brief moment when Odette's attack missed and she was momentarily stunned, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her ankle, which looked exceptionally slender due to excessive twisting!

It was cold and stiff to the touch, like holding a piece of pork that had been frozen for hundreds of years.

"Get down here, you son of a bitch!"

With a roar, Su Yuan's arm muscles bulged, and a terrifying force erupted!

He grabbed Odette's ankle, like swinging a tattered sack, and yanked her off the ceiling. Then he swung her around and slammed her down onto the hard marble floor!

Boom—!

A deafening explosion!

The entire banquet hall seemed to shake violently from the terrifying impact!

The hard marble floor cracked inch by inch, centered on Odette's body, and spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread throughout the entire hall!

However, that's not all!

Su Yuan pressed his advantage relentlessly, giving Odette no chance to breathe, and stomped heavily on her chest, pinning her to the ground.

Then, he raised the Demon-Slaying Warhammer high in his hand, aimed it at Odette's head, which was still staring at him with venomous resentment, and slammed it down hard!

"Bang!"

A flash of lightning!

Odette's head exploded instantly with a "poof," like a rotten watermelon smashed by a hammer!

Red and white, splattered everywhere.

However, just when Su Yuan thought the battle was over.

The headless corpse he was trampling under his feet was still struggling frantically!

Thick streams of black energy surged wildly from her severed neck, rapidly condensing and reforming in mid-air.

A brand new, intact head is regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Su Yuan frowned deeply as he looked at the bizarre scene before him.

"Can't be beaten to death?"

He swung his warhammer several times, smashing Odette's body into a bloody pulp time and time again.

But each time, the scattered flesh and black energy would recombine and return to their original form within seconds.

Moreover, Su Yuan could clearly sense that Odette's aura had not weakened despite being repeatedly killed; on the contrary, it was getting stronger with each fight!

It was as if the entire castle was providing her with a continuous source of energy!

"Looks like this is getting a little tricky!"

Su Yuan kicked the newly reassembled Odette away, and watching her stand up again as if nothing had happened, he felt a sense of unease for the first time.

"This can't go on, it'll never end."

Su Yuan's expression turned extremely serious as he watched Odette rush towards him again.

He knew very well that although he was powerful, his strength was not limitless.

If this drags on, even if the other party can't kill me, I'll eventually be exhausted to death.

We must find her weakness! Or rather, find the source of her infinitely regenerating energy!

Without further hesitation, Su Yuan killed the opponent again, then moved to a safe distance, abruptly closed his eyes, and pushed his terrifying perception ability of 119.3 to its limit!

In an instant, the world around him changed completely in his "vision".

The corpses still writhing wildly in the dance floor, the furniture stained with resentment in the banquet hall, even the dust permeating the air... everything shed its original disguise and transformed into clusters of light composed of energy of different colors and intensities.

In Su Yuan's perception, Odette was an incredibly huge and profound black energy aggregate, filled with pure death and resentment.

but……

Su Yuan keenly noticed that something seemed to be connected to this huge mass of black energy.

Those were translucent energy threads, finer than a hair and invisible to the naked eye.

These threads, numbering in the thousands, were densely packed, like a giant spider web, completely enveloping Odette's body.

The other ends of these threads all point in the same direction.

The second floor of the banquet hall!

There was a closed room there.

An aura even more eerie and chilling than Odette herself was continuously emanating from that room, flowing into Odette's body through those invisible threads!

"I see!"

Su Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and all the mysteries were solved at that moment!

"The Queen appears to be the final boss and possesses her own self-awareness, but she's more like a puppet!"

"The reason for all this lies with the mastermind hiding behind the scenes!"

Having figured this out, Su Yuan's tactics became clear instantly.

He stopped entangled with Odette, this seemingly indestructible "punching bag," and began looking for an opportunity to rush up to the second floor.

However, Odette seemed to have also sensed Su Yuan's intentions.

Her attacks became more frenzied and reckless.

Like a mad beast, she used every means to drag Su Yuan to the center of the dance floor, preventing him from approaching the stairs leading to the second floor.

Su Yuan was constantly harassed by it. Although he was strong enough to overwhelm it, this guy seemed to be unkillable.

This thing seems to be a product of the rules. Even if it has energy behind it, it is too vast and cannot be consumed in a short time.

This also marked the first time that Su Yuan, a physical combat talent, suffered a setback.

So Su Yuan decided to use this tactic.

His talent, the Forty-Four Nights Great Flood, is not merely about summoning wind and rain or enhancing the physical body without side effects.

Naturally, this also includes manipulating floods.

"I've chosen you!"

A hint of madness flashed in Su Yuan's eyes.

He took a deep breath and pushed the ocean power within him to its limit!

next second!

"Splash—!"

The rainwater that had been pouring in through the broken window seemed to have lost all its restraints at this moment!

The sudden downpour, like a celestial river pouring over the sky, instantly filled the entire banquet hall!

This is no ordinary rain!

Every drop of rain contains the raging power of Su Yuan's thunder and ocean!

They came crashing down with terrifying weight and force!

Within seconds, the entire banquet hall was transformed into a massive, constantly churning vortex!

The terrifying water pressure was squeezing in from all directions!

Those corpses that were still twisting wildly in the dance floor were, under this terrifying water pressure, like being thrown into a 10,000-ton water press. They didn't even have time to let out a scream before they were crushed into piles of meat patties!

Odette, the queen who could regenerate infinitely, finally tasted the bitterness of this sudden "great flood".

Her body, under the terrifying water pressure and violent lightning, began to collapse and disintegrate uncontrollably!

Countless black feathers and resentment were stripped from her body, and then instantly purified and evaporated by the lightning containing divine power!

"roar--!"

Odette let out a roar filled with pain and resentment.

She wanted to rebuild her body, but the omnipresent torrential rain and lightning were like a giant meat grinder, constantly tearing her newly formed body apart again!

"A great opportunity!"

Su Yuan looked at Odette struggling in the flood and knew his chance had come.

Without any further hesitation, he exerted force with both legs, and like an arrow released from a bow, he shot through the murky water, leaving a long white trail in his wake, towards the second floor!

"boom!"

He didn't even bother to take the stairs; instead, he used the most violent method, smashing his head against the ornate white marble railing on the second floor. He landed heavily on the second-floor corridor like a demon descending from the heavens.

The water under his feet splashed wildly in all directions as he stepped on it.

Without pausing, Su Yuan ignored the strangely styled oil paintings hanging on the walls along the corridor and rushed straight toward the source of the eerie aura!

However, the moment he stepped onto the second-floor corridor...

Everything around me has changed.

The deafening roar of the floodwaters downstairs, and Odette's painful and unwilling screams, all vanished without a trace at that moment.

Instead, there was a deathly silence.

Su Yuan suddenly stopped and looked around warily.

The corridor is still the same corridor.

Oil paintings, still the same oil paintings.

But Su Yuan could clearly feel that he seemed to have... stepped into another space.

An independent domain built by that behind-the-scenes mastermind using their own power.

Just then.

"Giggle giggle..."

A clear, melodious yet chilling girl's laughter suddenly echoed from the depths of the corridor.

The laughter was innocent and carefree, like that of a naive child playing hide-and-seek with their friends.

But in this deathly silent corridor, it seemed particularly eerie and chilling.

"Big brother, your performance was wonderful!"

Accompanied by laughter, several black swans, entirely black and exuding an ominous aura, flapped their wings and flew out from the shadows deep in the corridor.

They did not attack Su Yuan.

Instead, they circled around and landed on his shoulder, affectionately nuzzling Su Yuan's cheek with their cold, obsidian-like beaks.

It was as if she was guiding him.

Downstairs, the guardian spirit was intentionally avoided by Su Yuan's energy, so it did not cause any harm. Instead, it formed a protective layer, finally giving Su Yuan a chance to catch his breath.

But the next second, its chubby face turned deathly pale, and even its spirit began to flicker violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Su Yuan seemed to hear several shouts across the water.

"A sequencer, a sequencer!!"

"Be careful, sir! I've sensed the presence of a Sequencer!!"

"Well, I'm going to hide in the treasure chest now, my sir. I can't really be of much help anyway, but I'll do my best for you!"
