Before Xu Lang even reached the tenth floor, he heard a chorus of giggles and laughter.
"What are you all doing?" he asked, stepping out of the stairwell to see Tao Tao riding on the back of the Soul-Herding Wolf, with the Ghost Child and the River Mouth Child perched on Tao Tao's head.
Were they assembling a Gundam or sothing?
"Haha, Uncle Xu Lang, we're playing horsey," Tao Tao giggled.
The Ghost Child, gripping Tao Tao's braid, gave Xu Lang a serious, deliberate nod.
The River Mouth Child's gaze flickered upon seeing Xu Lang, a faint blush appearing on its pinkish-white cheeks, as if it were feeling quite embarrassed.
"Alright then, carry on," Xu Lang said with a wave.
The ntal ages of this human, beast, and two guardian spirits were on the sa level; it made perfect sense for them to play together.
He had let the Soul-Herding Wolf out when he left earlier.
Every ti the Ghost Child saw Xu Lang, it would look at him with hopeful eyes, wanting to play with the big dog.
Out of habit, Xu Lang checked the information of the two guardian spirits and felt sowhat satisfied.
With no shortage of food at ho, the offerings for the two guardian spirits had never been lacking. Their levels had now risen to level eight, not far from level ten.
Level ten represented a qualitative leap.
Within the Dorm Survival Ga, level ten was a clear dividing line. Beyond level ten, while nurical disparities between different item levels still existed, rarity beca a more crucial evaluation standard.
Both guardian spirits possessed decent quality—one was Excellent-grade, the other was Mythical-grade.
Xu Lang planned to use Nightmare Coins to give the two little ones an upgrade wave later, to see if he could unlock higher rarities.
If the River Mouth Child could evolve into a childlike version of the True Lord of Clear Source and Mystic Path, that would be truly interesting.
"Xu Lang."
Just as Xu Lang was about to enter his room, a sowhat affected voice called out to him.
Turning around, Han Zhixiu's handso face ca into view.
Xu Lang's eyes instinctively swept downward. The crotch seam of her tight pants was high, making her wine-glass legs appear long and straight, and her waist-to-hip ratio was absurdly exaggerated.
This figure was far too authoritative, giving Xu Lang a sense of awe similar to his first encounter with Xu Ruyan.
"May I co in and sit for a bit?" Han Zhixiu asked, her gaze flickering. "While I was out sweeping floors, I obtained so new intel I can share with you all."
"Sure," Xu Lang said, opening the door.
Han Zhixiu followed Xu Lang inside, her eyes imdiately lighting up.
The massive bed in the living room was incredibly eye-catching, both sacredly glorious and peacefully serene.
During ga ti, everyone preferred placing their beds in the living room so they could react more quickly in case of ergencies.
"Oh, Zhixiu's here?" Cao Yaxuan, who was playing gas with Xu Xiaong, turned and spotted Han Zhixiu.
"You two know each other well?" Xu Lang asked.
"Yes, Yaxuan and I added each other as friends," Han Zhixiu replied with a smile, her pupils contracting slightly.
A Ga Console!
Wasn't that a Core Facility that combined both economy and entertainnt?!
While the supermarket also had entertainnt options, their playability surely couldn't compare to a Core Facility. After all, the Ga Console could actually yield skills or items from the gas themselves—the sheer appeal generated by that alone was unmatched by any other ga.
After all this ti, Xu Xiaong had indeed dropped so items from the gas, though they were mostly things like red potions and blue potions. The rarest was a "Heavy Fist" Skill Scroll, which Xu Lang had fused into his Epic-Level Fist Technique.
Hearing the commotion, Tong Qi erged from her room. Seeing they had a guest, she went to prepare tea and so snacks.
Han Zhixiu didn't stand on ceremony. She thanked them generously and settled onto the sofa. Her full hips sank into the cushions, giving the impression they might bounce right back up.
To have such presence without using golden nectar ant Han Zhixiu's combat skills were truly well-honed.
"Take a look at this," Han Zhixiu said, pulling out a slip of paper.
An Information Slip!
Xu Lang hadn't expected Han Zhixiu to actually have information to share.
[Information Slip]
[Type: Item]
[Content: Within the great mausoleum of the Rakshasa Country lies one king, three saints, seven sages, and twenty-one generals.]
[Description: This kind of thing has no level, cannot be dismantled or upgraded. Just look at it and that's it.]
"What?! There are actually twenty-one generals like Azeman?!" Cao Yaxuan exclaid, her face full of shock.
Xu Lang also felt surprised, while simultaneously feeling a secret thrill.
Subtracting the deceased Saladin and Azeman, if the others could also erect tombs, that would an thirty tombstones!
The Rakshasa Ancient Kingdom was practically a resurrection care package delivered right to their doorstep!
"Based on circumstantial deduction, that should be the case," Han Zhixiu said, her clear, sharp gaze sweeping towards Xu Lang. "I didn't understand before why the Mad King Building's difficulty was so high. Now I'm starting to get it."
Xu Lang shook his head. "Has nothing to do with . The Mad King Building has always been this insane."
"Maybe," Han Zhixiu sighed almost imperceptibly.
A single Azeman had nearly driven everyone to despair. If the enemy all charged over at once, there would genuinely be no way to play.
The probability of an extinction-level instance appearing in other dormitory buildings was, at most, one in ten. How co the Mad King Building faced extinction-level instances every single round?
Wang Yazhi tapped the tabletop, analyzing calmly:
"The dormitory building won't present a guaranteed-death ga instance. This round's ga probably isn't just about us fighting a defensive battle. It likely requires us to explore as well."
"Didn't Zhang Dahai say earlier that he discovered monsters reviving within the mausoleum?"
"Perhaps the correct thod to clear the instance is to strike at the heart of the enemy's power before they fully revive."
Cao Yaxuan shook her head repeatedly. "But what if they all revive? That's gambling with our lives! We can't play that ga!"
She had truly absorbed Xu Lang's teachings: a single scratch could kill , the dorm door losing Durability ant it could be breached at any mont. The best way to win a gamble is not to gamble at all. Victory without fighting is the most complete victory.
Xu Lang frowned. He also felt the true thod to clear the instance was likely as described.
But what if this was a trap?
However... he had Simulation!
Then it's fine!
He'd run a simulation tonight to check.
The Nightmare Lord sequence was just too comprehensive. While Simulation had its margin of error, getting a general idea shouldn't be a problem.
After that, Han Zhixiu chatted with everyone a while longer, then asked if there was a training area in the dorm, wanting to spar with Xu Lang.
Before the match began, Han Zhixiu said, "Close the door," only to see Xu Lang had already placed his hand on the doorknob a step ahead of her.
This made her beautiful, cat-like eyes narrow slightly.
Xu Lang sotis really did seem capable of foreseeing the future.
Han Zhixiu excelled at kickboxing, possessing outstanding combat skills.
Her back positioning was flawless, her attacks ca in relentless combinations, pressuring Xu Lang until he could barely breathe.
Yet, the ultimate victor was still the Five-Ti Champion, Xu Lang!
The vampire's explosive power was a fact, plus his Constitution stat was higher than Han Zhixiu's, and he had the Nightmare Eye to peer into her mind. There was simply no reason for him to lose.
Nightmare Eye: I feel dirty.
