"What are you still standing there for?"

Xiao Qiu rushed over, looking anxious: "That guy has completely come out, I can hear her voice getting closer!"

“There’s no foothold…” Lin Jue said as he carefully examined the structure of the exterior wall. Each balcony had a small strip-shaped protrusion on the top of the exterior wall, which was probably for rain protection. The width was just enough to fit most of a foot.

"Perhaps there's another leverage point."

Lin Jue reached out and shook the iron railing of the balcony. It was quite sturdy, and it was the only thing in the room that hadn't been damaged.

He estimated that if he tied a half-meter-long strip of cloth to the bottom of the railing, then stepped on the small protrusions on the outside and slowly moved down, he could throw himself onto the balcony below if the angle was right.

It has a success rate, so you can give it a try.

When Lin Jue told Xiao Qiu about his idea, Xiao Qiu looked horrified: "Are you crazy? If you fall down there, you'll be smashed to pieces!"

"It's not a big deal if you fall; you're strong enough not to die from the fall."

"All I need to do is go down one floor and then figure out how to escape through the stairs on that floor."

Eh?
Wait, maybe we won't need the strips of cloth.

Lin Jue turned his gaze to Xiao Qiu, who was startled: "What?"

"You're not going to die from the fall anyway, come and lend a hand." Lin Jue's tone quickened, and the sound of countless spiders crawling came from outside the room.

That thing is getting closer and closer!

"Hurry! It's too late!"

He was the first to climb over the railing and waved to Xiao Qiu: "Come out quickly. When the time comes, you grab the railing, I'll hold your body and move down, and then you swing me with your feet, and I can jump to the balcony downstairs."

"A madman, a complete madman!"

Xiao Qiu really didn't know how to describe Lin Jue's behavior. Ordinary people would never think of such an escape method. He swallowed hard and asked, "Are you serious? I won't die if I fall?"

"You're a B-rank now, not an E-rank. A fall from six stories will at most injure you, but you'll just need to eat two monsters."

Lin Jue reassured the other party that he was a very experienced Pokémon Master.

A loud bang came from the door, and the door panel quickly twisted and deformed. Xiao Qiu dared not hesitate any longer and immediately climbed over the railing: "What's next?"

Ignoring the festering wounds on the other person's body, Lin Jue put his arm around Xiao Qiu's waist and said, "Now you hold onto the railing and slowly dangle down into the air. Leave the rest to me."

"Damn it, I was so unlucky to have believed you!"

Xiao Qiu knew he had boarded a pirate ship, but he didn't expect that this pirate ship was full of holes and could capsize at any moment.

He gritted his teeth, grabbed the railing, and suspended Lin Jue in mid-air. Lin Jue held Xiao Qiu's waist and slowly moved down. When he felt it was time to jump, he turned to face Xiao Qiu and had her knee push him at an angle.

boom!
At the same time, the sound of the door being smashed rang out, and Xiao Qiu roared, "Damn it! That hurts so much! I didn't have many good pieces of flesh left to begin with! And you tore them all off!"
"Stop being so slow! Jump already!"

Lin Jue shoved Xiao Qiu away and simultaneously plummeted towards the balcony below. The angle was precise, and the fall was only a few dozen centimeters. After landing safely, Lin Jue heard Xiao Qiu yell, "You bastard surnamed Xiang, you better be telling the truth! I really can't die from this fall! Otherwise, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

After shouting, Xiao Qiu immediately let go, and the entire ghost plummeted downwards.

Lin Jue didn't check if Xiao Qiu had landed safely. Instead, he turned and ran towards the gate because he saw strands of hair following Xiao Qiu down the mountain, obscuring his view like a waterfall.

Now that the guy's attention is drawn to Xiao Qiu, it's the perfect time to escape.

Lin Jue opened the door. The dark corridor was filled with the smell of decay and decay. The floor was covered in blood and felt sticky underfoot.

Without any hesitation, Lin Jue ran quickly toward the corridor, but he stopped abruptly before he reached the stairwell, because he saw strands of hair surging toward him like black waves.

"This guy's IQ is that high!?"

Lin Jue never expected that the monster would turn its gun on him and charge straight at him. He turned around abruptly and fled to the other side of the corridor, thinking of other ways to escape as he ran.

The black hair followed closely, quickly filling the entire corridor and enveloping him.

It seems there's no way out!
Are we going to use the cursed black thread?
But using the power of extreme evil on a C-level monster feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. The cursed black line is his only means of survival at the moment, and Lin Jue really doesn't want to use it unless absolutely necessary.

Sensing the increasingly chilling killing intent approaching from behind, Lin Jue immediately changed direction, hid in a room to the side, and slammed the door shut.

boom!
The next moment, the door creaked as if it had been hit by a truck.

Lin Jue dragged the cabinet that had fallen to the side over. He wanted to see if he could drag it until the timeline changed. As long as the timeline changed and he was away from the dormitory building, he wouldn't have to face that guy when the timeline changed back next time.

He hid in the bedroom and used a desk to block the door.

The sound of the door breaking open came from outside, and there were rustling sounds all over the walls, as if countless spiders were crawling on them.

"The real thing should still be upstairs; right now, only its hair is down. Perhaps by not making a sound, it can buy us more time."

Lin Jue huddled in the corner, his brows furrowed. This desolate timeline had lasted a little too long; why hadn't it switched back yet?

The sound of hair swaying outside the door continued; it was only a matter of time before they were discovered.

boom!
There was another banging on the door; the person outside had spotted Lin Jue and was frantically pounding on the door.

With just two blows, the door shattered, and countless strands of hair, baring their claws, filled the entire field of vision.

The hair scattered in all directions, like a gaping maw of an abyss that swallowed Lin Jue whole, wrapping around his body. Then, Lin Jue felt an irresistible force strike him, and he went from standing to lying down, being dragged out of the room by the hair.

His hair was dragging him backward at high speed, and Lin Jue knew that the hair was trying to bring him back to the monster.

Even in such a critical situation, his expression remained unchanged, and he even observed the hair with great interest.

"The hair can grow so long, and that monster can survive inside other strange bodies. Its abilities are quite unique."

"What a pity, such beautiful hair will soon turn into dead straw." (End of Chapter)
