Survival in an apartment, starting with a stroke of luck on a plane

at last!

A piercing, distorted scream, like a red-hot branding iron, abruptly shattered the silence on the southern edge of the town.

The sound was filled with extreme fear and pain, instantly making all the players who were searching tense.

"To the south!"

Something's up!

"Quickly! Send reinforcements!"

The sunny young man immediately issued an order, and his central team and several nearby squads quickly moved in the direction from which the screams came.

The shadow clone followed without hesitation, fulfilling his duty of "supporting".

However, Lin Yu's main body, which was farther away from the scene of the incident, reacted even faster.

The instant the scream rang out, he shot off like an arrow, accelerating to his maximum speed.

In just a short while, Lin Yu arrived near the scene of the tragedy.

This is a dilapidated shantytown, where most of the low-rise houses are now just ruins.

The strong stench of blood was overwhelming and nauseating.

Lin Yu arrived behind a half-collapsed low wall. In his field of vision, he saw the entrance to a relatively intact small house, and the scene was shocking.

A two-person player team has been reduced to mutilated corpses.

One of them was torn apart at the waist by the immense force, his internal organs spilling out onto the ground; the other's upper body was almost flattened, and his skull was shattered.

Meanwhile, next to the corpses, a twisted humanoid creature was lying on one of the corpses, frantically tearing and swallowing flesh and blood.

Clearly, this was probably a ghoul that couldn't stand the hunger and chose to go out hunting. It was smart enough not to choose to hunt the members of the Sunshine Youth Team, but instead chose these lone players who hadn't joined the team.

Lin Yu's eyes were as cold as knives, and he did not hesitate at all.

"Drive away!" Lin Yu silently chanted, and the "Drive Away" technique from the "Seven Subduing Demons Techniques of the Green Mountain Path" was activated instantly.

An invisible spiritual pressure, carrying the thunderous will of simulated heavenly thunder, slammed down on the ghoul that was feeding like a heavy hammer.

"roar--?!"

The ghoul was indulging in the delicious flesh and blood when it was suddenly struck by this oppressive force targeting its soul and its dark origin. Its massive body stiffened abruptly, and it let out a roar of shock and rage.

It felt as if it were being pierced by an invisible electric current. A fear stemming from instinct made it hesitate for a moment, and the flesh and blood in its mouth fell out.

Its cloudy eyes, filled with surprise and rage, swept around abruptly, searching for the source of any disturbance to its meal.

It's now!

Lin Yu's figure sprang up from behind the low wall like a cheetah! Azure Rose instantly raised her gun, the muzzle drawing a cold, eerie trail in the night.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Six deafening gunshots rang out almost in quick succession. Lin Yu held nothing back, unleashing all six bullets from his magazine, aiming directly at the ghoul's head, heart, and other vital organs.

The terrifying power of the Azure Rose was already demonstrated during the basement test, and now, facing a true dark creature, the bullets imbued with [Divine Blessing] unleashed astonishing destructive power.

Puff puff puff puff puff!

The ghoul's tough skin, which could withstand ordinary knife and axe blows, was easily torn apart like inferior leather in front of the Blue Rose's bullets.

Six terrifying, bowl-sized holes instantly exploded in the ghoul's chest, shoulders, and arms.

Dark red and blackish blood, with a strong, foul stench, gushed out like a fountain.

"Awoooooo!!!"

The ghoul let out a deafening scream. The enormous impact caused its massive body to stagger backward, crashing heavily into the wall of the small house behind it, cracking the already crumbling wall.

Intense pain and the divine power contained within the bullet scorched its flesh and soul.

It stared in disbelief at the horrific wounds on its body, glaring at the figure that rushed out of the darkness with a mixture of shock and rage, its eyes filled with violence and a hint of... fear?

Its wound hadn't healed!

This clearly indicates that the revolver in Lin Yu's hand is probably the weapon that can kill them according to the game rules.

The strong will to survive overcame the excruciating pain.

The ghoul let out a ferocious roar, ignoring the gushing blood and its almost blown-off arm. Its only remaining intact claw, accompanied by a shrill whistling sound as it tore through the air, viciously grabbed at Lin Yu, who was rushing towards it. Its speed far exceeded that of an ordinary human.

Lin Yu's expression remained unchanged. He was prepared. His footwork changed mysteriously, and his body slid sideways like a willow catkin in the wind, narrowly avoiding the fatal claw.

The blade of the demon sword, carrying a chilling aura, swiftly slashed towards the ghoul's ribs.

hum!

An invisible shockwave of resentment spread along the sword's edge, slamming into the ghoul's mind.

The ghoul's movements stiffened again, as if it were briefly bound by invisible chains.

At the same time, black energy surged on the [Demon Sword], and two blurry, twisted female ghost figures shrieked as they pounced out, fiercely tearing at the ghoul's spirit.

The ghoul shook its head in agony, overwhelmed by the double blow to its body and mind.

"Press!"

Lin Yu seized the opportunity and activated the "Suppress" technique of the Seven Subduing Demons Techniques. A heavy will, like an invisible mountain, suddenly pressed down on the ghoul.

Its already injured and heavy body suddenly sank, and the ground beneath its feet sank slightly.

"Roar!!!" The ghoul struggled frantically, trying to break free from the invisible pressure.

It sensed the threat of death.

Lin Yu's eyes were icy cold. He raised the muzzle of the Azure Rose gun again. This time, a deep hum came from inside the gun, and dark red demonic power gathered wildly at the muzzle.

Instead of choosing the most powerful level 3 charge attack, he opted for the level 2 charge attack, which is faster and more suitable for single-target finishing moves.

The brief 0.5-second charge-up feels both incredibly long and deadly in the heat of close combat.

The ghoul sensed the terrifying, destructive energy emanating from the gun barrel. It let out a desperate roar and desperately tried to pounce on Lin Yu in a final struggle.

"Bang--!!!"

A deafening roar, deeper and heavier than any gunshot before, exploded out like the thunder of hellish war drums.

A dark red streak of light tore through the air and struck precisely the center of the ghoul's ugly head.

There was no violent explosion, but the head that was hit was like an ice block thrown into a furnace, instantly engulfed from the inside out by a ghostly blue hellfire.

"Sizzle—!!"

A tooth-searing, burning sound rang out.

The ghoul's screams abruptly ceased. Its massive body convulsed violently, and eerie blue flames erupted from its seven orifices, instantly engulfing its entire body.

The flames carried an eerie feeling of coldness and heat, with an extremely strong clinging quality, frantically burning its flesh, bones, and even soul.

In just two or three seconds, the ghoul that had been so ferocious just moments before was burned into a pile of charred, smoky, human-shaped bones amidst silent, violent convulsions.

The eerie blue flames slowly died down, leaving only a pungent, burnt smell in the air.

Lin Yu took a slight breath, his arm holding the gun was numb from the huge recoil.

He quickly scanned his surroundings, confirming there were no other threats. Wisps of dark red embers still lingered at the muzzle of the Azure Rose gun.

He stepped forward and kicked the pile of charred bones to confirm that they were completely dead.
