Chapter 24
Yu Qing leaned back and was pressed hard to the ground by two powerful tentacles, making him dizzy.
Thick black mist filled the air instantly, and he was caught off guard. The boy took two sharp breaths, and his health immediately approached zero.
Fortunately, he had a lot of points, and he could click on the system to automatically renew his life.
But this time the black mist was too aggressive. In just one second, his health returned to zero six times!
Yu Qing’s whole body was shrouded in black mist, his lungs were compressed, and it became extremely difficult to breathe. The boss wanted to play a game with him, and if he wasn’t having fun, he would naturally get angry.
“It’s just… a seventh-level piece of trash!”
There was no point in being afraid! Yu Qing let go completely, letting the sounds of points being consumed and health points returning to zero ring wildly in his ears.
His slender silver hair was scattered on the ground. He slowly gave up resistance, relaxed his body, let go of his hands, and looked at the seventh-level BOSS that everyone was talking about with some satisfaction. His eyes gradually became boiling, ferocious, and provocative, like a beast prepared to devour the tiger.
Opening his mouth, he declared with determination, “Darling, I will definitely kill you!”
[Hey, the game is over, dear host, see you next time!]
The game ended, and the terrible pressure suddenly disappeared. A layer of cold sweat broke out on Yu Qing’s body. He kept catching his breath and tried hard to tighten his numb hands. He was about to get up and listen to “Ding dong ——”
Yu Qing paused, shuddered instantly, and almost knelt down again.
[The live broadcast task is refreshed, explore the top floor of the sanatorium.]
[Time limit: 1 hour.]
[Special note: If the mission fails within one hour, the health value will automatically return to zero.]
[Explore, explore the secrets of the entire sanatorium, and embrace your new life!]
Breathing rapidly, Yu Qing unconsciously rubbed his arms, trying to smooth out the sudden goose bumps—he thought the BOSS game had started again, and almost suffered a cardiac arrest!
So, after dragging his limp legs and sitting back on the hospital bed, Yu Qing decisively asked the system, “Can BOSS start his own game anytime and anywhere?”
Fortunately, the answer he got was: [BOSS is restricted by the overall system, and within one day there is only one chance to start the game.]
Yu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and fell down on the bed with a bang, letting the late fatigue eat away at his body.
[Oh, my God, I think the host is exhausted. He only has 15 points of physical strength.]
[But, hasn’t he been marked as a sacrifice? What…is everything okay?]
His stomach was a little flat… Gurgling…
Thump, thump, thump…
The heavy muffled sound was heard together with the growl of his stomach. The suppressed “thump” sound was much louder than the “thump thump” sound when the female ghosts appeared together. The “Bang” was even more obvious, and the malice even went straight to his forehead, but…
Yu Qing was too lazy to pay attention.
In order to fill his stomach, he bought nutrient solution from the system mall, and his mind kept capturing another key piece of information provided by the system.
[Embrace your new life.]
He remembered that there was also such a condition for clearing the dungeon, [Find the key to get out and embrace your new life.]
So, what was the relationship between “key” and “embracing new life”? What did the tragic story of Xu Han’s family have to do with the “key”?
Yu Qing thought secretly: He had roughly understood the story of Xu Han’s family, but the exploration level of the plot only stayed at 20%.
The bell on the wrist, the girl made into a rabbit, the mysterious angel statue… the remaining 80% was hidden in the darkness, and every inch had to be exchanged for life.
Boom, boom, boom…
The dull sound continued. Qian Lai walked in from outside at some point and stood in front of Yu Qing’s bed, staring motionlessly out of the window in the direction of the sound.
Boom, boom, boom…
The sound still continued. Qian Lai seemed to be fixed by something. He stared at it for a full minute without even moving his eyelashes.
[Ding——]
Yu Qing paused, and in his ears, the system broadcast suddenly sounded: [The angel’s sacrificial ceremony is about to begin, host Yu Qing, please be prepared!]
[3, 2, 1!]
“Yu Qing…” On one side, Qian Lai finally said: “Look, what I saw…”
