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

Dead silence.

The live streams around the world were completely silent.

Everyone was like a duck with its neck choked, mouths agape, but unable to utter a sound.

In their pupils.

It reflected the deep darkness, and in that darkness, stood a man who seemed like a god or demon.

Their thinking went blank once again.

What happened?

What exactly happened just now?

The stove... has gone out?

According to the rules, if the stove goes out, the person will die!

This is an ironclad rule proven by the lives of countless players!

But why...?

Is Yang Jian still alive?

Not only is he alive, but... he hasn't lost a single hair!

he……

He put his hand into the stove!

What did he do?

Is it...

An absurd, crazy, yet most truthful idea, like a virus, is growing and spreading wildly in everyone's minds!

He... took that ghost...

have eaten?!

Once the thought appeared, it could no longer be stopped!

Much later.

The frozen barrage of comments, like the surface of a frozen river, began to crack, and scattered words struggled to emerge.

[...The fire...is it out?]

[Am I seeing things? It's really wiped out! Utterly wiped out!]

[The fire in the stove went out, and a vengeful ghost came to claim lives!]

[These are the rules! Why is Yang Shen completely unharmed? This isn't scientific! This isn't strange!]

[Science? Bizarre?]

[Upstairs, look at Yang Shen himself. Does he seem like someone whose existence can be explained by science or the supernatural?]

So... everything that just happened was really... eating ghosts?

[My God... I always thought "eating demon" was just an exaggerated metaphor used by Kyushu viewers to describe his immense power... I never imagined... he actually eats for real?!]

[Monster! This isn't human anymore!]

This is a real monster! It feeds on vengeful spirits... What kind of being is this?!

I feel like my worldview was repeatedly crushed tonight, then forcibly pieced back together, only to be crushed again... I'm numb.

[So... so this is the correct way to clear the eerie dungeon? Not by dodging, not by breaking the rules... but by... eating all the ghosts?!]

Don't be silly! Who do you think you are? Yang Shen?

[You try eating one? You'd probably be torn to shreds the moment you opened your mouth!]

[This is terrifying! Where on earth did the Nine Provinces find such a... god-like man?!]

Bullet comments.

What began as bewilderment and confusion gradually transformed into a frenzy of awe and reverence!

If we say...

The wall full of ghostly figures that had appeared behind Yang Jian earlier gave them a visual shock and a sense of fear of the unknown.

So now.

This scene of "swallowing a vengeful ghost" completely overturned their understanding of this bizarre world and their identity as "players"!

original……

The relationship between players and ghosts is not simply that of prey and hunter.

When the prey becomes powerful enough.

Conversely, one can also become... a top predator!

At this very moment, the whole world was in an uproar.

Inside the eerie hotel.

The disappearance of the Stove Ghost also triggered a series of strange and unsettling changes!

All surviving players.

At the same time, the fireplaces in their rooms went out with a "whoosh"!

The only flame that could bring light and warmth has disappeared.

Endless darkness and coldness instantly enveloped every corner and the hearts of every survivor.

"what!"

"What happened?! How did the fire go out?!"

"No! Don't! Light it! Light it now!"

Panic screams echoed throughout the rooms.

The surviving players frantically searched for fuel, trying to rekindle the fire.

however.

No matter how hard they tried, the cold stove could no longer ignite even a single spark.

Because the source of this flame... is gone.

Darkness descended completely.

When one kind of eeriness is erased, it often means that... another kind of eeriness will awaken from its slumber!

First floor.

In room 244, which belonged to the players of Sunset Empire.

He casually tossed the old newspaper, stained with dried blood, onto the table—a piece he hadn't had time to burn as fuel.

In the darkness, it moves without wind.

"Shh...shh..."

The edges of the newspaper began to curl slightly, turning...

It was as if an invisible hand was slowly turning the pages.

A new terror is brewing...

……

Inside room 201.

Yang Jian was completely unconcerned about the chain reaction he had caused.

It devoured the furnace ghost.

This made him feel better than ever before.

That's a kind of...

The pleasant feeling after the hunger has been somewhat satisfied.

Yes, it was just a little bit of satisfaction.

For him, a furnace ghost wasn't even an appetizer, at most... a dessert before the main course.

His gaze pierced through the walls of the room, sweeping across the entire hotel.

In his perception.

This hotel is like a giant cage, or rather... a giant buffet.

On the plate.

A variety of "dishes" are displayed.

That terrifying being that can leave charred footprints in the lobby and make all the evil spirits retreat is a tough one to deal with, and we can't touch it for now.

The ghost playing the piano.

It's considered a main dish, so it should taste good.

That thing that keeps wandering around in the elevator is like a side dish.

as well as……

Fourth floor!

Those dozens of ghosts gathered together, like a nest!

that……

That's what makes it a true feast!

If we could devour all these ghosts...

A cold smile curled at the corner of Yang Jian's lips.

His integration progress will inevitably see an explosive increase!

By then.

He will be able to unlock more and stronger abilities belonging to "Yang Jian"!

Just as he was planning his own famous hunting sequence.

"Eee... Ya ya..."

A faint, eerie operatic melody, like a mournful lament, suddenly rang in his ears without warning.

The sound seemed to pierce through layers of floors and the barriers of space, carrying an irresistible magic that resonated directly in his mind.

Her voice carried a hint of resentment and a touch of seduction.

Also with...

A subtle... provocation!

Yang Jian raised an eyebrow slightly.

Oh?

It seems that my "eating" just now disturbed those "actors" upstairs.

Are they... inviting me in?

Or……

"interesting."

A playful smile appeared on Yang Jian's cold face.

Since the grand feast has already extended an invitation.

Then how could I, as the only diner, possibly refuse?

He no longer hesitated in the slightest.

Take the first step.

He turned and walked out of room 201, heading straight for the elevator at the end of the corridor, which exuded an ominous aura.

His goal is very clear.

He's going to the fourth floor!

Go meet those actors who have already "dressed up" for him!

……

This scene was clearly transmitted to the world through the live broadcast.

The Kyushu livestream room instantly erupted in excitement!

The audience, who had just been shocked by Yang Jian's "swallowing the ghost alive", were now terrified by his sudden action!
