Excessive ferocity due to caution

The night clouds were thick and cold, and the moon was as dark as a tide.

Zhao Yi and Yang Linlin met at the agreed place. Both of them were ready and headed towards the water tower.

"Zhao Yi, I still don't quite understand."

"What do you need the fishing line for?"

"Do you want to strangle Li Sheng to death?"

Zhao Yi stretched out a finger and put it in front of her lips.

"Be cautious in your speech."

He didn't want to explain to Yang Linlin.

This girl is obedient, but she talks too much.

Zhao Yi took precautions against her, lest her performance be subpar and expose her true intentions.

Faced with Zhao Yi's mysterious demeanor, Yang Linlin remained silent.

Upon arriving at the basement of the water tower, the two met Li Sheng, who had been waiting there for a long time. He seemed somewhat... anxious.

"Why did you take so long to arrive?"

Li Sheng grumbled.

"Let's hurry and scout the location. We don't have much time left. After midnight, when the third bell rings, that ghostly fog will once again permeate every corner of the campus!"

Zhao nodded.

"no problem."

The three of them found the water tower and carefully headed to the underground parking lot in the west district under the moonlight.

There are three entrances and exits in total. The two followed Li Sheng to scout out the area, listening carefully to Li Sheng's detailed plan of their escape route and how to entangle themselves with the ghosts...

When Li Sheng spoke, he displayed an unnatural excitement.

Yang Linlin, who was observing him closely, became increasingly certain of Zhao Yi's guess.

There's something wrong with this person!

The two entered from the east, which was the intersection where Li Sheng was supposed to lie in ambush.

Li Sheng was walking in front, so he didn't see Zhao Yi quietly take out a round, dark green object and wed it into the iron bar on the side wall of the entrance.

The loop at the top is connected to a fishing line that is almost invisible in the dark.

The other end of the thread was hidden in the sleeve of Zhao Yi's school uniform.

Li Sheng hid in a corner and said to the two of them:

"Chen Qiong's evil spirit is lingering in area C ahead. After you get there, deliberately make some noise to attract its attention, and then split up and run, one towards the north exit and the other towards the west exit."

"Then we'll follow the route we've outlined to avoid it!"

"It won't go far from here. As long as you can lure it out of the underground parking lot, I'll be able to get the weapons, destroy its corpse, and break the curse!"

Zhao Yi glanced at Area C.

"No problem, wait until we lure it away before you act. We only have one chance, so don't rush!"

Li Sheng nodded.

"good!"

Zhao Yi and Yang Linlin then crouched low as they made their way towards Area C, carefully hugging the wall and using the vehicles as cover, while observing the surroundings for any possible vengeful spirits of Chen Qiong.

A cold wind blew in from the entrance, making Yang Linlin shiver in the darkness.

She was extremely nervous.

You can even hear your heart pounding in your throat!

In fact, she wasn't the only one who was nervous.

Li Sheng was equally nervous.

Since that incident, he has been barely surviving in this strange school for several months, and now he has long since run out of ammunition and food.

He was getting hungrier and hungrier.

My companions are becoming fewer and fewer.

Whether he survives or not depends on whether these two can help him lure away that terrifying evil spirit today...

...

As Zhao Yi explored Zone C, he maintained a high level of mental focus.

The red, bloody glint in his eyes grew stronger.

It even faintly glowed with a reddish light.

The pupils were no longer round, but had become eerie and chilling patterns!

Before his eyes, all inanimate objects were gradually fading away.

The area that was originally dark and invisible became increasingly clear in Zhao Yi's eyes!

[Player Zhao Yi's source code has encountered an error and become corrupted...]

[Attempting to fix it...]

Repair failed...

Repair failed...

Repair failed...

...

The system's annoying voice kept ringing in Zhao Yi's ears, but he ignored it along with the strange whispers.

At this moment, he seemed to be in God's view!

He saw everything that happened in the underground parking lot!

Including that twisted humanoid figure hidden in the corner!

……

[The Chaotic Quantum State: Extremely Dangerous!]

[Note 1: Extremely fast movement speed, can pass through most obstacles!]

[Note 2: The attack is extremely powerful; you cannot withstand it!]

[Behavior: Slaughter all living things in sight! Prioritize attacking loud units!]

Weakness 1: Schrödinger's cat.

[Weakness 2: Body. 】

……

Having obtained this data, the crimson in Zhao's eyes gradually faded and returned to normal.

He was lost in thought for a few seconds before his eyes regained their sparkle.

Zhao Yi carefully led Yang Linlin around the straight line between the twisted humanoid and Li Sheng.

He turned around and gave Li Sheng an "OK" sign.

Li Sheng also responded with an "OK" gesture.

In the darkness, his face was filled with a sinister and morbid smile!

Die... die!

If you die, I can live!

You can only blame your bad luck!

How can you easily believe what a stranger says?

A surprising smile appeared on Li Sheng's lips.

The next moment, Zhao Yi grabbed the fishing line from his sleeve.

Pull hard!

In the darkness and silence, the sound of the pin being pulled off the grenade seemed somewhat abrupt.

Ding!

The pull ring fell to the ground.

The sound was crisp and clear.

The twisted human figure, which had been still in the corner, turned around.

Li Sheng's body tensed up at that moment.

He had a question in his mind.

What was that sound just now?

Looking back,

A burst of flames erupted!

The dazzling flames spread like a phoenix spreading its wings, and the violent explosions reverberated throughout the entire underground parking lot!

The terrifying impact slammed Li Sheng against a nearby car door. Before he could even think about what had happened, he vaguely saw a terrifying black shadow drifting towards him in the distance, illuminated by the blinding firelight!

Done!

Li Sheng was terrified!

The shadow of death looms, and adrenaline surges!

Without time to think, he immediately fled into the distance!

If we don't leave now, we're doomed!

As he approached the exit, he subconsciously glanced back, only to be shocked to see—

Zhao Yi stood in the underground parking lot and waved goodbye to him!

Now that things have come to this, how could he not guess that he had been outmaneuvered by Zhao Yifan?

His fists were clenched tightly, and his eyes were blazing with fury!

Li Sheng was so angry that he almost coughed up blood, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore!

The twisted humanoid was chasing after him at an extremely fast speed!

He must get out of there immediately!

Li Sheng led the shadowy figure away from Area C in a disheveled state, and Zhao Yi quickly went with Yang Linlin to the shaft inscribed with "Filthy Fire".

"Holy crap, you're carrying around grenades, those weapons of mass destruction!"

"Don't you get points for the beginner dungeons?"

The shock written all over Yang Linlin's face was evident as she took out a crowbar and helped Zhao Yi pry open the manhole cover, all the while listening to Zhao Yi say:

"I had a patient before who was an arms dealer."

"I cured his bloodlust, and he gave me a box of specially made weapons as a reward."

"I usually like to carry a few hand grenades with me when I'm bored, so I can take them out and play with them."

Yang Linlin: "..."

Live stream chat:

Are you crazy?! Who the hell would take a grenade out and start fiddling with it?!

I'm becoming more and more convinced that Zhao Yi went crazy because he had too much contact with mentally ill people!

Putting aside his eccentric behavior, Zhao Yi's counter-strategy was truly ingenious!

Indeed! From discerning the truth to setting the course, what seemed like the simplest of operations had such a devastating effect...
