In the corridor.

Princess Yao Yao looked at the tightly closed door, initially at a loss, but soon she was at ease.

"Anyway, they have two lives, so it doesn't really matter if they die."

With that, she adjusted her mini skirt, sat on the bench in the hallway, swung her legs, and continued eating her snacks.

Suddenly, footsteps echoed in the corridor. Princess Yao Yao turned her head to see a few residents from the fourth floor coming down. Qin Nuo had helped them before, and after some thought, he decided to come down and check.

Liu Ze ignored Princess Yao Yao, gripped the handle of room 305, and twisted and pulled with all his might, but couldn't open the door.

Then, he turned to Princess Yao Yao and asked, "Did he go in?"

Princess Yao Yao didn't know who he was referring to but replied, "They all went in, but it doesn't look too optimistic."

She then felt a scorching gaze on her and turned to see the Fat Homebody Ghost behind Little Yuan's Mom, staring intently at her legs clad in white lace stockings.

Princess Yao Yao shifted uncomfortably and used her snacks to cover herself.

"Li... Little sister, my name is Zhang Yuan, what's... what's your name?" The Fat Homebody Ghost, clearly not used to interacting with people, stuttered as he spoke to such a pretty girl.

"Yao," Princess Yao Yao casually replied.

"Can I shake your hand?"

The Fat Homebody Ghost took a step forward, extending his sweaty hand, his breath hot, and his lecherous eyes fixed on her snow-white thighs.

His gaze seemed to pierce through her mini skirt!

Just as Princess Yao Yao was considering running, Little Yuan's Mom suddenly extended two fingers and jabbed them into the Fat Homebody Ghost's eyes.

"Behave yourself, we're here to help."

The Fat Homebody Ghost covered his eyes, somewhat fearful of Little Yuan's Mom, and obediently stepped back without making another sound.

At this moment, Jackson came down from upstairs.

"Weren't you inside?" Princess Yao Yao asked in surprise.

"I got killed by that ghost, and my respawn point is in my room," Jackson said with a dark expression.

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

He hadn't done anything, hadn't even seen the enemy, and his head was already on the floor.

The worst part was using up his immunity token like this!

He was utterly frustrated!

"What about Phantom and the others..." Princess Yao Yao was taken aback.

"They'll probably lose their heads soon too," Jackson said with a bitter smile.

This wasn't them capturing anyone; it was like a flock of sheep entering a wolf's den, about to be wiped out!

"Force the door open!" Liu Ze sensed something was wrong and said in a deep voice.

But no matter how he tried to break the door, it would always restore itself in seconds.

"A ghost curse," Little Yuan's Mom's eyes flashed as she said, "Let me open it, but it'll take some time."

"Then it's probably too late," Jackson muttered.

Inside the room, darkness completely engulfed the surroundings.

Cobra and the others could only huddle together tightly.

"Don't spread out, back to back, so if it attacks anyone, the rest can immediately notice," Jiang Xiaobai said.

Though the chances were slim, there was still hope.

The few of them were on high alert, their ghostly items useless, like helpless chicks huddling together for survival in a desperate situation.

Except for Qin Nuo.

He stood there, showing no sign of tension.

"Phantom?" Black Rose looked at him in confusion.

"Ignore him, he's already given up resisting," Black Bear said weakly. He was already missing an eye, and now a hand, his mental state was poor.

The others remained silent.

For those with weaker endurance, giving up resistance was indeed the best option.

After all, once dead, they could exit the room and respawn at the respawn point.

Only Black Rose thought otherwise.

She knew Phantom's strength was the most unfathomable among the seven players.

In the darkness, the Face-Flaying Ghost spotted the isolated Qin Nuo, murderous intent surging in its eyes.

Silently, it appeared behind him, its ghostly hands merging with the darkness, reaching out.

Its ghostly hands could instantly remove a head, even before the brain realized it was dead!

The darkness obscured vision, and no one noticed the ghostly hands already beneath Qin Nuo's neck.

Just a slight lift, and the head could be taken!

However, at the critical moment, a pair of hands like iron clamps grabbed the Face-Flaying Ghost's hands!

Qin Nuo slowly turned his head, grinning at the Face-Flaying Ghost, "Got you!"

"Can't you tell I'm fishing?"

The Face-Flaying Ghost was utterly bewildered.

How did he discover it?

"With such a strong uric acid smell on you, I could find you with my eyes closed!"

The eerie voice didn't come from Qin Nuo's mouth.

The Face-Flaying Ghost suddenly noticed a blood-red eye on Qin Nuo's right arm, mocking it.

"Half-Ghost?!"

The Face-Flaying Ghost's eyes filled with deep terror, and it suddenly tore off its restrained arms, turning to flee into the darkness.

"Cutting off its arms to escape, that's ruthless."

"But hiding won't help, my bottle of virgin boy urine ruined your scent-masking ghost aura."

"This room is now an open book to me."

As Qin Nuo spoke, he took out a machete.

Bang!!

At that moment, a dull sound echoed, and the vanished door reappeared, being violently slammed open.

Cobra and the others, not yet understanding what happened with Qin Nuo, were overjoyed, "The door's open again, run!"

Before he could finish, the others had already rushed out the door.

Black Rose stopped at the door, turning back to look at Qin Nuo, "Hey, what are you standing there for?"

Qin Nuo ignored her and instead plunged into the darkness.

Once everyone was out, they collapsed on the ground as if reborn, their tense nerves finally relaxing.

Liu Ze looked at the group, frowning, "Why didn't he come out?"

"Who?" Cobra asked, panting.

"You mean Phantom, right? He didn't come out," Black Rose said.

"That guy's definitely gone."

"If you go in, you might even find his head!" Black Bear said, panting, with a hint of schadenfreude.

However, the moment he said this, he felt a chill all over, his hair standing on end!

Liu Ze and Little Yuan's Mom looked at him coldly, like the hand of death gripping his throat.

A sense of doom enveloped him!

The Fat Homebody Ghost, holding a spiked club, appeared in front of Black Bear, saying menacingly, "If you say one more word, I'll crack your skull open!"

Black Bear was dumbfounded, fear causing his body to tremble involuntarily, and he nodded instinctively.

The others dared not speak, watching this bizarre scene.

Their hearts were filled with panic and confusion.

Weren't these the apartment residents?

What was their connection to Phantom, and why such a big reaction?

"I'm going in to find him," Liu Ze said, glancing into the room and turning to head inside.

"I'm going too," Little Yuan's Mom said, pulling a kitchen knife from under her apron.

"If anything happens to my good brother, the guy inside will end up as minced meat!" The Fat Homebody Ghost said with a murderous aura.

However, just as they were about to step into the room, a head rolled out.

It wasn't Qin Nuo's; it was the Face-Flaying Ghost's.

Its terrifying face was filled with fear, and white smoke rose from the severed neck.

Qin Nuo emerged, dusting off his clothes, and looked at everyone, saying, "Why are so many people blocking the door? Isn't it stuffy?"
