Everyone stopped what they were doing instantly.

The entire dance studio fell silent, with only the faint crackling sound of the virtual bonfire burning in the center remaining.

Holding the dagger, Chen Fei moved silently like a cat to the edge of the wooden door and pressed his ear against the door panel.

There was no harsh scratching sound like that of mutated rats outside.

There was also no heavy panting from the zombie dogs.

There was no sound at all.

It was eerily quiet.

But a layer of cold sweat slowly seeped out from Chen Fei's forehead.

He turned his head, looked at Su Bai, and gestured a few words with extremely faint mouth movements.

"There's a shadow flickering in the gap under the door."

Su Bai gripped the modified fire axe tightly, and moved over slowly and quietly.

Through a gap of about one centimeter at the bottom of the door, you could indeed see that the light in the corridor was being blocked by something.

The dark figure paced back and forth outside the door, but strangely, no footsteps could be heard.

There was no sound of claws scraping the floor, nor any panting.

It was as if a ghost was standing outside the door.

Zhao Lei also came over, carrying half a wooden stick, and mouthed a question.

"Open the door and get in on it?"

Su Bai shook his head.

The situation outside the door is unclear. The double door is blocked by a metal cabinet door. To open the door, the obstacle would have to be moved, which would be too noisy and could make it easy for someone to launch a surprise attack.

Just then.

The dark figure under the door suddenly disappeared.

The faint light from the corridor shone through again.

"Gone?"

The fat man swallowed hard and muttered to himself.

Chen Fei pressed his ear against the door and listened for a long time, but there was indeed no sound.

"It seems they really left. They were probably just passing by."

Chen Fei breathed a sigh of relief and was just about to stand up straight.

"Look up! Above!"

Xia Youwei, who hadn't said much until now, suddenly shouted coldly.

The huge meat saw in her hand instantly drew an arc in mid-air, and she staggered back two steps.

"What?"

Su Bai subconsciously raised his head and looked at the ceiling.

The ceiling of the dance studio was fitted with old-fashioned central air conditioning vents, covered by a plastic mesh cover that resembled louvers.

At this moment, the netting, which was about three meters above the ground, was creaking under the weight.

"boom!"

The plastic mesh cover shattered completely.

A huge black shadow, like a meteorite falling from the sky, crashed directly into Chen Fei, who was standing by the door, with a sharp whooshing sound!

"Third brother, get out of the way!"

Su Bai roared and swung the axe upwards without thinking.

But the dark shape was too fast.

It even miraculously twisted its body in mid-air to avoid Su Bai's axe blade.

"Sizzle!"

Taking advantage of his light and agile leather boots, Chen Fei desperately rolled to the side.

But he was still a step too slow.

The shadowy figure's claws grazed Chen Fei's shoulder, tearing three long slits in his tracksuit. Blood instantly stained his clothes.

Holy crap!

Chen Fei rolled on the ground in pain, then quickly got up, holding the blue-armored dagger horizontally in front of his chest.

At this moment, everyone finally saw clearly what had fallen from the ceiling.

That was a cat.

A cat that is ridiculously large.

Its body length is nearly 1.5 meters, and with its tail, it is at least 2 meters long, almost like a small black panther.

Its entire body is covered with thick, long fur as dark as night, and it has a majestic lion-like collar of fur around its neck.

A pair of eerie green vertical pupils gleamed with a cold light in the darkness.

"This...this is Mimi, the Maine Coon cat that the dorm supervisor keeps?"

When the fat man saw what it looked like, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. (Cola Novels, following updates—it's never been so enjoyable.)

The dorm supervisor of this girls' dormitory building likes to feed stray cats and also owns a Maine Coon cat. It usually roams around in the lobby downstairs, and many boys have petted it while waiting for their girlfriends.

Who would have thought that after the system arrived, this usually docile and affectionate big cat would mutate into this state!

The system panel popped up at the right time.

【Lv.6 Shadow Maine Coon (Elite Monster)】

[Status: Stealth/Hunting]

Health Points: 350/350

[Talent: Shadow Stealth (In low-light environments, movement speed is increased by 30%, and footsteps are completely eliminated.)]

[Skills: Tear Claws, Neurotoxin, Nine Transformations of the Cat.]

[Note: It used to love eating the cat treats you held in your hand, but now it thinks your brains might taste better.]

"Level 6 elite monster!"

Zhao Lei gasped, his palms sweating as he gripped the wooden stick.

They just defeated a level 5 boss, the Rat King, and now a level 6 elite cat has appeared. Isn't the difficulty of this newbie village a bit ridiculous?

Why is it silent?

Lin Chacha hid in the corner, trembling with fear.

"Didn't you check the panel? Shadow Stealth. This beast has maxed out the Assassin talent."

Chen Fei clutched his bleeding shoulder, gritting his teeth.

As the only assassin in the team, Chen Fei felt that his professional dignity had been seriously challenged.

That was a true lethal strike; my speed was practically a slow-motion replay in comparison.

The hind leg lightly touched the wooden floor.

Without making a sound, the massive body transformed into a black lightning bolt once more, lunging directly at Lin Chacha, who appeared to be the weakest member of the group.

Its animal instincts tell it to cut first and then drain.

"Boss!" Su Bai roared.

"Grandson! Look at Grandpa here!"

Zhao Lei activated [Taunting Roar] without hesitation.

"roar!"

The sound waves vibrated in the dance studio.

The Maine Coon paused abruptly in mid-air, its eerie green vertical pupils turning towards Zhao Lei, a hint of human-like disgust flashing in its eyes.

It abandoned Lin Chacha and turned to pounce on Zhao Lei.

"Fatty, take over!"

Zhao Lei yelled and quickly backed away. He only had half a broken stick in his hand; if he got scratched by it, he'd definitely lose a chunk of flesh.

"I am coming!"

The fat man held up the heavy metal cabinet door, blocking Zhao Lei's way like a wall of flesh.

"when!"

The Maine Coon slammed its paws hard against the metal door.

Sparks flew everywhere.

The fat man felt a tremendous force travel up his arm, and he slid back half a meter, leaving three deep grooves on the metal door.

"What incredible strength!" the fat man exclaimed.

But if the cat misses its first strike, it will absolutely not be greedy for more.

Using the recoil from slamming the metal door, it somersaulted in mid-air and landed steadily on the wall beside it.

Yes, on the wall.

Its claws gripped the wallpaper and wooden panels on the wall tightly, like a gecko magnified countless times, coldly looking down at everyone.

"How can we hit it? It doesn't even touch the ground!"

Chen Fei was anxiously holding the dagger.

Su Bai stared at the Maine Coon cat on the wall, his brain working at a rapid pace.

Although this monster only has 350 health points, not as many as the Rat King, it is extremely agile and knows how to utilize the terrain.

In this spacious dance studio, the walls, ceiling, and even the mirrors serve as its springboard.

"Block its movement."

Xia Youwei, who hadn't made a move until now, suddenly spoke up.

She gripped the exaggerated meat saw with both hands, the blade pointing diagonally at the ground.

"It's too fast; it's difficult for a single person to hit it. Su Bai, I'll force it down later, and you try to predict its landing point."
