Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 998 - 909: Queen of Terror 5
Because this world can tolerate a lot of power, when Lan Shuangshuang ca over, she had the strength of a Great Heavenly Master, so she wasn’t really afraid of the ghosts in this horror ga.
After dealing with the female ghost, when Lan Shuangshuang started to leave again, Wei Zhixin, Jiang Hongxin, Mo Yuan, and Bai Xinrong instinctively followed her. After all, Lan Shuangshuang’s displayed strength seed more reliable than Zhong Junyu, and in such a place, who wouldn’t want to follow soone who seems powerful, offers a sense of security, and can protect them?
However, Zhong Junyu and Li ng still decided to form their own team and explore the terrain. This Ghost Hotel was very large and well-decorated, with six floors in total. Each floor had two rows of rooms, so were suites and others were regular rooms, but every room was very dilapidated, covered with a thick layer of dust.
Lan Shuangshuang’s main purpose was to inspect the hotel’s decor and pathways. She searched around to see what the stairs going up and down were like. Behind one of the sliding doors, Lan Shuangshuang found a small stairwell that went directly downstairs, but it was low, narrow, emitted a strange odor, and was very dark and gloomy.
When Lan Shuangshuang was inspecting this area, it just so happened that Zhong Junyu and Li ng ca around from another side. Looking at the small staircase, Zhong Junyu frowned and said, "This staircase is a bit strange. Such a good hotel shouldn’t have a spot that’s so unsightly. To be on the safe side, no one should enter here alone."
Everyone nodded in agreent; this place looked so eerie and sinister that even if forced, they wouldn’t want to go there.
As they just about finished investigating the situation, night fell. Out of fear and fright, no one felt like eating. The stress was too overwhelming, leaving them with no appetite. Coupled with their bad mood, they couldn’t eat anything even if they tried.
Seeing as no one was eating, and since it was already night, the next issue was where to sleep. Firstly, no one wanted to sleep alone. Not everyone had Lan Shuangshuang’s self-preservation ability. Without her skills, sleeping alone would be like serving oneself on a platter to the ghosts in this Ghost Hotel.
After calculating for a long ti, they decided to all stay in one large suite. By moving the sofas and beds from other rooms, they could manage to accommodate everyone.
Of course, they absolutely couldn’t turn off the lights. Although having the lights on might not help much, at least the brightness could drive away the darkness and so of the fears in their hearts. Even though Lan Shuangshuang thought it was unnerving that an abandoned hotel still had usable electricity and water, everyone was too tense to think further on it.
The won slept in the inner room, while the n stayed in the outer room. Both the n and won chose soone to take turns on the night watch. Despite the ghostly realm often making night watch useless, they couldn’t be sure that all dangers ca from ghosts in the ga, so better safe than sorry.
The first half of the night was easier to watch over since people were more alert. Therefore, the newcors took the first shift, while the more experienced watched during the more tiring second half. Among the won, since Lan Shuangshuang was very capable and Li ng was experienced, it was decided that Mo Yuan would take the first shift, and Li ng the second. Tomorrow, Bai Xinrong would take the first shift, and Lan Shuangshuang the second. Among the n, Jiang Hongxin took the first shift, and Zhong Junyu had to endure a bit more as there were only three n, so he had to cover the whole second half of the night.
Three won squeezed into two side-by-side beds. Because of the intense stress, even though their eyes were closed, none of them fell asleep. However, Lan Shuangshuang slept soundly. She was confident that her vigilance would ensure she woke up imdiately if there was danger.
In the middle of the night, Lan Shuangshuang felt an unusual chill. Her eyes opened instantly, and she sat up quickly, only to find that the room’s temperature had suddenly beco exceedingly cold. A thick layer of frost had ford on the window panes, and even the walls and furniture were covered in a layer of ice.
Lan Shuangshuang cupped her hands near her mouth and exhaled. The white mist enveloped her hands, and under the pale light, a thin layer of ice crystals quickly ford on her hands.
Unbeknownst to her, those who were responsible for the night watch, Mo Yuan and Jiang Hongxin, had already fallen over. Everyone was curled up, clearly having passed out from the extre cold—even Zhong Junyu and Li ng, the seasoned ones, were not exceptions.
In Lan Shuangshuang’s mory, this hadn’t happened in her past life. Perhaps the ga automatically increased its difficulty because of her exceptional performance or maybe a powerful ghost had been summoned.
Lan Shuangshuang went around waking everyone. If they stayed too long in such cold, they genuinely wouldn’t wake up. Zhong Junyu and Li ng woke up quickly and adapted fast—even though they were shivering from the cold, they could help Lan Shuangshuang wake the others.
The rest didn’t have Lan Shuangshuang’s ability to ignore the cold or Zhong Junyu and Li ng’s adaptability. When the four complete newcors were awakened, their extremities were too frozen to move, and they were all shivering so hard they could barely speak a coherent word.
Lan Shuangshuang thought for a mont and felt she had to go out to see if this abnormal cold was due to the ga’s weather setting or caused by so freezing ghost. Since both Li ng and Zhong Junyu were awake, having two seasoned individuals provided a bit of safety. Even if danger arose, they should be able to hold on until she returned,
Additionally, Lan Shuangshuang wanted to get so blankets. The room had only two blankets, and at this ti, they couldn’t be picky. n and won should huddle together in blankets to keep warm. It was terribly cold, but two blankets weren’t enough.
Lan Shuangshuang was about to leave when Mo Yuan and the other three newcors beca anxious. Lan Shuangshuang was mighty, and during this cold, she could still move effortlessly. Hearing that she intended to leave, their first thought was what to do if ghosts ca, prompting Mo Yuan to respond first with a tremulous voice, "You can’t go; what will we do if you leave?"
Wei Zhixin pushed his glasses up and analyzed, "What can you do by going out now? If it’s ghosts, they’re surely hiding away. If it’s not, then it’s just wasting ti. If ghosts co while you’re out, won’t we be very dangerous? Right now, even though it’s cold, by huddling together for warmth, we can still make it through, so there’s no need to take risks."
Even Bai Xinrong and Jiang Hongxin, usually quiet, looked at Lan Shuangshuang with expectant eyes, evidently not wanting her to leave. On the other hand, Zhong Junyu and Li ng, sitting with their arms crossed, leaned against the wall, casting mocking glances at the group of newcors.
