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

His neck.

It makes a "click-clack" sound that makes your teeth ache.

His head.

Despite his desperate resistance, he was forcibly twisted inch by inch by a strange force!

180 degrees!

His head turned behind him!

They turned towards that endless darkness where black water surged!

Followed by.

That force acted on his eyelids!

His eyelids, which had been tightly closed due to fear and the instinct for survival, began to tremble violently!

He used all his strength to try to keep his eyes closed!

The corner of his eye.

It even cracked open due to excessive force, shedding blood and tears!

"No...no...don't..."

He let out a desperate, beast-like roar from deep within his throat.

but,

Useless.

It was all in vain.

Faced with that domineering and unparalleled power of rules, his personal will was as insignificant as dust.

His eyelids were pried open forcefully, slowly, by an invisible force!

A crack.

light.

Or rather, darkness seeped in.

And it was at that very moment, when his pupils were once again exposed to the air.

He saw it.

Behind us, in the endless darkness and flowing water.

Those two points.

A faint, seemingly eternal red glow.

They made eye contact.

He was forced to make eye contact with the ghost.

next second.

"Thump."

A soft sound.

The companion walking ahead felt a lightness behind him as the hand gripping his clothes slipped limply away.

He was startled and instinctively wanted to turn around.

"Don't turn around! Close your eyes!"

Bruno's stern rebuke stopped him in time.

"What happened?!"

"I don't know... he... he seems to have collapsed..."

The team stopped, and everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.

Another one died.

With all of them having their eyes closed, another one died!

……

The real world.

Inside the command center, the atmosphere that had just eased instantly plummeted to freezing point.

All the analysts and commanders who witnessed this horrific scene through the "death perspective" of the last player were stunned.

The relief and joy on their faces had not yet completely faded when they froze into boundless horror and astonishment.

"How...how could this happen?"

Why...did he turn around? Why did he open his eyes?!

"Is he insane?! Doesn't he know he'll die if he opens his eyes?!"

A general.

He slammed his fist hard on the control panel, letting out an angry and bewildered roar.

however.

Inside the Kyushu Command Center, the old man who had been silent all along slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, his eyes becoming extremely solemn.

"It's not that he wanted to turn back, nor that he wanted to open his eyes."

"It was that ghost... forcing him to turn around, forcing him to open his eyes."

The old man's voice was not loud.

It was like a bucket of ice water poured over everyone's heads.

It chilled them to the bone.

"The rules of this staring ghost are not simply 'staring means certain death'."

"Its rules are even more domineering and even more unsolvable."

"Its rule is... if it wants you dead, you have to look it in the eye!"

This conclusion.

It left everyone feeling deeply powerless and suffocated.

This is just like the "elevator ghost" that Yang Jian encountered in that hotel instance before!

The rule of the elevator ghost is "Looking up means certain death!"

but.

Even if the player doesn't look up, it can create all sorts of situations, and even directly distort your body to force you to look up!

This is a higher level of rule power that involves "forced judgment"!

This.

That's what makes an S-class vengeful ghost truly terrifying!

they.

It's the rules themselves!

……

After realizing yet another bizarre death of his companion, and the despairing truth it represented.

The surviving players were completely devastated.

"Run! Run!"

"It forces us to open our eyes! It doesn't work even if we keep them closed!"

"Get out of here! Quickly!"

The instinct for survival overwhelmed everything.

They no longer cared about formations or holding hands.

Like headless flies, they rushed upwards frantically in the darkness with their eyes closed!

They crashed into the wall.

He fell down on the steps.

He immediately got up and continued his desperate escape.

however,

To their surprise...

The terrifying "Staring Ghost" did not continue its pursuit after killing the last player.

That terrifying killing intent seemed to...

It stopped at that corner.

The players who were at the front of the pack couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

Is it...

Is the ghost's range of movement limited?

It cannot leave that area?

This idea.

It gave them new hope, and their pace quickened.

But little did they know.

The reason the staring ghost didn't continue its pursuit was not because it was merciful, nor because its range of movement was limited.

Rather, it's because...

An even more terrifying and utter destruction is about to unfold!

Boom! ...

An unprecedented, terrifying roar, seemingly capable of tearing the entire world apart, suddenly erupted from beneath their feet, coming from all directions!

The spiral staircase beneath their feet trembled violently and cracked!

The rock wall beside them.

at this moment,

Like a fragile cookie, it was instantly crushed by an irresistible, terrifying pressure emanating from the entire ghost lake!

Crash!!!

A deafening roar!

The solid passage was completely torn open with a huge gap!

The endless, pitch-black, viscous, and foul-smelling waters of the eerie lake transformed into a roaring, primordial behemoth at this moment.

With overwhelming force, it poured in frantically!

Terrifying waves.

It swept over the gaunt "staring ghost," and over countless afterimages and resentments in the lake.

Facing upwards,

They surged towards Bruno and the others!

"No--!"

Feeling the devastating force behind him, Bruno let out his last cry of despair.

next second.

The waves swallowed everything.

In this surging tide.

Amidst waves composed of billions of vengeful ghosts.

The surviving players were like a few fragile leaves, easily caught, tossed up, and torn apart.

They were forced to open their eyes.

In this murky place.

They saw it in the "water" filled with countless ghostly figures.

They saw the gaunt, staring ghost bobbing with the waves.

then.

They died one by one, silently.

Their bodies were crushed by water pressure, torn apart by ghostly figures, and their souls were devoured by resentment.

however.

The power of this wave was simply too great, too violent!

It did more than just flood the passageway.

It broke through all obstacles with overwhelming force, moving ever upward!

finally.

"puff!"

Several disheveled figures.

The giant wave violently threw it out from under the ground of the island in the middle of the lake!

It crashed heavily onto the island's black soil.
