A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

"Keep dividing!"

She gave the order again, "Split into four teams!"

"Three to four people per team! Maintain formation and keep the distance between you!"

This time.

The voices of opposition have diminished considerably.

Because everyone saw hope.

soon.

The dozen or so survivors were divided into four smaller groups.

Once the four teams had spread out more than ten meters apart, the surrounding fog dissipated rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The thick fog that had previously made it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face had become as thin as a veil in the morning light.

They finally saw it clearly.

Not far ahead of them, rows of dilapidated farmhouses stood quietly in the dim light of the day.

They resembled giant beasts that would devour anyone they chose.

The true face of Huanggang Village was finally revealed to them!

Qin Taotao came to a conclusion.

This fog.

It is the embodiment of "people".

The more people there are.

The more it gathers, the thicker the fog becomes.

Only by breaking down the concept of "crowd" and weakening its meaning can the fog dissipate.

This copy.

From beginning to end, it forces players into the abyss of being "left behind"!

"Walk!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Taotao led her team and was the first to enter the village area.

The other three teams quickly followed.

They maintained a delicate and dangerous distance from each other, cautiously advancing into the village.

……

The village was deathly silent.

A strange smell, a mixture of decay and dampness, filled the air.

Just as one of the squads was passing by a half-collapsed mud-brick house, a player from the Lighthouse Kingdom in the squad suddenly had a bright idea in his eyes.

Pointing to a figure standing against the wall in the yard, he let out a soft exclamation of surprise.

"Look! It's Tom! He's still alive!"

That figure.

He was a member of Jack's team before, who left the team out of panic when the ghost appeared.

"I told you! I told you the information Qin Taotao gave us was fake!"

The player exclaimed excitedly.

His face was full of relief at surviving the ordeal. "What? All the lone players are dead? Tom's just standing here, perfectly fine!"

"She just wants to use this message to control us!"

talking.

He then thought of going up to say hello.

"Hey! Tom! You rascal..."

"Don't go over there!"

His teammate, a more experienced veteran player, grabbed him and shook his head with a serious expression.

"Look closely, there's something wrong with him."

The excited player was taken aback upon hearing this.

Look closely.

The player named Tom was sitting stiffly against the wall, completely still.

His head was slightly lowered, shrouded in shadow.

I can't see their expressions clearly.

His whole being exuded an indescribable stiffness and eeriness.

"Tom?"

The player tentatively called out.

The people in the courtyard did not react.

"Look, he must be terrified."

The player was still unwilling to give up.

He desperately needs a real-life example to prove that being "alone" isn't so terrible.

He ignored his teammates' attempts to stop him.

He carefully broke away from his squad and took two steps toward the gate of the courtyard.

"Tom, it's me, Mike! You're still..."

His words came to an abrupt end.

The moment he broke away from the group and was all alone!

Tom, who had been standing still in the yard, suddenly raised his head!

What a terrifying face that was!

Pale and swollen.

His eyes were like two bottomless black holes, and his mouth was stretched into an inhuman arc!

It's not a living person at all!

"ah--!"

Mike was terrified and let out a piercing scream. Without thinking, he scrambled back to his team.

And just as he returned to his teammates.

The ghost of "Tom," who had already rushed to the courtyard gate, suddenly stopped and paused.

Its empty eye sockets "looked" at the three people huddled together.

It seems we have lost our goal.

It slowly and stiffly retreated back into the courtyard, leaned against the wall again, and resumed its previous still posture.

It was as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.

But the warmth and stench emanating from Mike's crotch served as a stark reminder that a truly horrific scene had occurred.

"A ghost...a ghost...he's become a ghost!"

Mike collapsed to the ground, screaming incoherently.

The other two in the team.

His face was deathly pale, and his whole body was trembling like a leaf.

They finally understood.

I understand completely now.

The vengeful ghost will only attack players who are alone!

This intelligence.

The message was quickly relayed to all squads via headset and also relayed back to various command centers in the real world.

In a short time.

Global analysis teams have arrived at the final, and only, answer.

Being alone means certain death!

This rule is absolute!

Upon receiving this definitive information, all the surviving players instinctively moved even closer together.

however.

After a brief moment of realization and fear, other thoughts quietly began to sprout in the minds of some people.

The command center of the beacon nation.

"The rules are set: 'Lone wolf means certain death!'"

"This means that as long as they stay together, they won't be directly attacked by the vengeful spirits!"

"At the same time... this also means that if we want to kill someone, all we need to do is... leave her alone!"

A cold, excited glint flashed in one analyst's eyes.

All eyes.

All eyes were fixed on the screen, on the figure protected in the center by the Kyushu National Team—Qin Taotao!

"A golden opportunity!"

"She's too powerful; she possesses the ability to control ghosts. We have no chance of winning in a direct confrontation!"

"But now, the rules have given us an invisible knife!"

"Order our people to find an opportunity to unite with other players who are dissatisfied with Kyushu and take action together!"

"There's only one goal—to isolate Qin Taotao! Let the ghosts of Huanggang Village kill her!"

The same instructions.

It also reached the ears of their respective players from the command centers in countries like Japan and South Korea.

A conspiracy against Qin Taotao is taking shape quietly and rapidly.

They were prepared for revenge.

They want to use the rules of this ghost to completely bury this major threat here!

……

the other side.

Qin Taotao's team also encountered a ghost formed from the death of a player.

It's that Korean player who previously tried to use a mirror to fight back against the ghost messengers.

He stood motionless in the middle of the road like a wax figure.

Qin Taotao's teammates were so frightened that they immediately stopped in their tracks, huddled together nervously, and dared not make the slightest move.

But Qin Taotao's reaction.

But he was completely different from everyone else.

In her view, this so-called "ghost" did not possess the terrifying aura of a true vengeful spirit.

It's more like an... energy body.

A special creation formed from fragments of the supernatural power of ghost messengers, mixed with the player's intense resentment and unwillingness before death.

"These things... are edible."

A clear idea.

It appeared in Qin Taotao's mind.

The ghost driver inside her.

A surge of longing rose within me.

These are fragments of ghosts.

It does not possess any independent rules; it is merely a collection of supernatural entities.

If we could devour them.

Not only will there be no risk of being corrupted by vengeful ghosts, but it can also replenish the Ghost Driver's power, making its puzzle more complete and stronger!

This is an opportunity!
