Seeing Wu Huihui had truly left, Wang Ao's expression shifted between cloudy and clear.
After waiting thirty seconds, Xu Lang had Cao Yaxuan loot the body while he continued confronting Wang Ao.
"Let's go!" Wang Ao snorted coldly upon seeing this, turned, and left imdiately.
The other onlookers exchanged a very understanding glance. They didn't leave directly but silently moved further away.
Xu Lang ignored them and simply returned to his position against the wall, standing firm.
Not long after, Cao Yaxuan ran over and said, "Xu Lang, look what this is!"
Cao Yaxuan was holding a crossbow in her hands, its arrowhead gleaming with a chilling coldness.
Tong Qi covered her mouth, her face full of belated fear: "Lang-ge, he was planning to ambush you with this earlier!"
No wonder Wang Ao ran away so fast. He couldn't win in a fight to begin with, and now he'd lost this divine weapon too.
Xu Lang took the crossbow and checked its information.
[Handmade Crossbow]
[Type: chanism]
[Level: 2]
[Lethality: 45]
[Bolts: 1/1]
[Durability: 9/9]
[Deconstruction yields: Crossbow Bolt X1, Wood X8, Wooden chanism X1]
[Upgrade Condition: 170 Nightmare Coins]
[Description: I only have one shot, boo hoo hoo hoo...]
"Even though it's only Level 2, its lethality is just 4 points lower than the Venomous Snake!"
If Wang Ao had used this thing against the Large Zombie earlier, he might have been able to kill it instantly with a headshot.
It's just a pity that, whether he was waiting for an opportunity or saving it as a trump card, he never used it until the very end, and now it benefits .
Pah!
This isn't benefiting ; I earned it through genuine skill and learning!
"This dorm survival ga is truly dangerous everywhere. If I didn't have Super Intuition, I would have been in danger just now... From now on, I should just hide in the dorm and avoid coming out easily."
Xu Lang made this decision privately.
Imdiately after, he said to Cao Yaxuan: "You use this crossbow for self-defense. I can't operate it alone anyway."
"Really, is that okay?" Cao Yaxuan blinked, feeling sowhat incredulous.
Xu Lang nodded, then turned intending to comfort Tong Qi, but saw the latter looking delighted, happy for her friend, so he didn't say anything more.
Both girls have good hearts; it's just Xu Lang himself who's a bit dirty...
"Thank you, Xu Lang!" Cao Yaxuan excitedly kissed Xu Lang on the cheek.
This made the onlookers nearly grind their teeth to dust.
Seizing treasure, gaining the favor of a beauty – this is the treatnt only many male protagonists get!
Xu Lang didn't say anything, cautiously observing his surroundings with his peripheral vision.
Cao Yaxuan held the handmade crossbow, fondling it admiringly, occasionally gesturing and aiming as if she were a little boy who had just gotten a new toy.
Xu Lang didn't know when he had raised this top school belle Cao to be like this; perhaps this was her true nature all along.
Not long after, a strand of dawn light broke through the blood mist at the horizon and fell upon the school campus.
A tal crate attached to a parachute slowly descended from high altitude, finally landing steadily on the ground!
Everyone's eyes were fixed on this airdrop, seemingly feeling sowhat restless and tempted.
Right at that mont, Cao Yaxuan urgently tugged Xu Lang's sleeve and whispered, "Soone sent a private ssage saying there are people upstairs planning to throw rocks at us!"
Xu Lang was startled: "Who told you that?"
"Simps."
Xu Lang: "..."
Even without Cao Yaxuan's warning, Xu Lang hadn't planned to just walk straight out recklessly, precisely because he feared this kind of situation.
Imdiately, he led Cao Yaxuan and Tong Qi sideways in a fast run for over ten ters before finally erging from under the eaves.
The mont they ca out, Xu Lang looked back and indeed saw several people leaning out from the eighth floor, holding stones and bricks in their hands.
All of them were Wang Ao's people.
Seeing Xu Lang look over, they quickly pulled back inside.
Xu Lang remained silent, leading the two girls straight to the airdrop location.
"These people are so bad!" Tong Qi adorably wrinkled her brow.
Xu Lang said indifferently, "This is an inevitable outco."
Cao Yaxuan secretly glanced at Xu Lang.
For soone to be so indifferent to others' malice ans he's either already accustod to it, or he's naturally thick-skinned and extrely self-centered.
The three of them walked up to the airdrop crate. Xu Lang found that the airdrop crate couldn't be stored in his backpack, so he frowned, had Tong Qi open the crate, while he and Cao Yaxuan stood guard.
Seeing Xu Lang being so cautious, the crowd imdiately abandoned so of the thoughts they should and shouldn't have been having.
The deterrence of two ranged weapons was no joke.
Tong Qi didn't need much effort to open the airdrop crate, taking out a black sculpture resembling a child figurine.
"Just this one thing?" Afraid of losing focus, Xu Lang didn't check the information but instinctively glanced inside the airdrop crate.
It was empty inside.
"Mm." Tong Qi nodded.
She was also a bit surprised that such a large airdrop crate contained only this small item.
The child sculpture was about the size of a human head, seated cross-legged on a lotus pedestal, with fangs exposed, shaped like a ferocious ghost.
"Okay, let's go then." Xu Lang nodded, put away the child sculpture, then lifted the airdrop crate with one hand and headed back towards the dorm.
The airdrop crate seed to be made of steel; deconstructing it would just yield so raw materials. The Steel Door's Durability would inevitably decrease soday.
The onlookers were dumbfounded. That airdrop crate was at least one cubic ter, yet Xu Lang lifted it effortlessly with one hand.
Just how much strength did he have?
...
They returned smoothly to the tenth-floor dorm without any obstacles. Xu Lang took out the black child figurine.
Its texture felt like wood but not quite wood, like jade but not quite jade. Staring at its small black face, one could sense a chilling aura.
This thing was a bit sinister.
[Ghost Child]
[Type: Guardian Spirit]
[Level: 3]
[Vitality: 70]
[Skills: Ward Ho & Repel Evil, Devour Ghosts, Eyewitness]
[Upgrade Condition: 500 Nightmare Coins]
[Description: Extre evil gives birth to extre protection...]
[Bind to current dorm? Yes/No]
Xu Lang stared at the Vitality section and soon received detailed feedback.
Guardian Spirits don't have Durability; when their Vitality is depleted, they die. However, after death, they slowly respawn. Skills also have no cooldown ti, but using them also consus Vitality.
[Ward Ho & Repel Evil: The Ghost Child will guard your room, patrol for and capture Yin creatures and ghostly entities within visible range, while also exerting a deterrent effect on specters and other spiritual entities.]
[Devour Ghosts: The Ghost Child will consu spiritual entities to restore its Vitality. Consuming many may have a probability of triggering an upgrade.]
[Eyewitness: Forcibly controls an enemy for 1 second.]
"Truly a great treasure." Xu Lang's eyes lit up brightly.
With this Guardian Spirit present, he wouldn't need to fear ghost attacks anymore, even though he hadn't encountered any ghosts yet.
But given how sinister this ga is, he was bound to encounter them in the future.
Humans have a natural fear of these invisible entities.
"So cute." Tong Qi looked at the Ghost Child's pitch-black little face and couldn't help but laugh.
Probably because both the Ghost Child and she had the sa chubby baby cheeks.
Suddenly, the Ghost Child turned its face and smiled at Tong Qi.
Tong Qi recoiled in fear, shrinking her neck – a case of professed love for what one really fears.
"Gasp~ Xu Lang, it can move!" Cao Yaxuan exclaid in surprise.
Xu Lang nodded and chose to bind it.
The next second, the Ghost Child directly disappeared from his hand.
Xu Lang felt a sensation unique to the room owner and hurriedly ran out to check. He found the Ghost Child positioned right next to the doorplate, housed within a small shrine.
"Move it a bit higher." Feeling it was sowhat blocking the Surveillance Cara's view, Xu Lang said instinctively.
The small shrine's position imdiately shifted.
Greatly amazed, Xu Lang adjusted the shrine's position a few more tis, stopping only when he was satisfied.
He observed the Ghost Child, reluctant to go back inside.
He really wished a ghost would appear right now to test the Ghost Child's capabilities.
