We were supposed to be doing horror movie guides, but what the heck is this "mysterious resurre

Chapter 103 Annihilation of the Team (Sixteenth Update, Seeking First Subscription!)

Inside the room, Zhou Yisheng, who had repaired his body using [Infinite Regeneration], frowned.

Because he discovered that the ferocious ghost that had been so menacing just moments before had vanished.

It seems they were taken elsewhere by some kind of supernatural force.

Zhou Yisheng has a keen eye for observation. He has already noticed the puddles in the corner that are not easily noticed. If you look closely, you can see a distorted and blurry human figure on the surface of the puddles.

Only a rough outline can be seen, but it is enough to identify it.

"Is it that Lu Ming?"

Previously, when he used special supernatural methods to spy on Lu Ming's situation, he had noticed this young man.

Lu Ming has a cold and aloof demeanor. He doesn't talk much, but he involuntarily gives people a sense of trustworthiness, and being his teammate would make you feel very safe.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the captain of the other team.

"Looks like a newbie participating in a team-based competitive dungeon for the first time... unaware that only one member of the team can survive in the end."

"Time was running out. I'm very grateful to him for saving me from danger. However, in the adult world, interests always have to take precedence over feelings."

Zhou Yisheng frowned and stood up from the sofa.

His clothes were tattered and torn, and the bloodstains splattered on them had dried.

Despite his disheveled appearance, Zhou Yisheng was actually not seriously injured.

Or rather, all of Zhou Yisheng's injuries have been repaired by the high-level ability [Infinite Regeneration].

"Lu Ming, thank you for giving me this chance to live... This time next year, I might bring you a drink, if you have a grave."

The three people who had been watching anxiously from a distance exclaimed in surprise, "Boss! That ghost is gone!"

The death prophecy from the ghost call failed.

They survived.

Most unexpectedly, Lu Ming, the captain of the other team, took the initiative to lure away the vengeful ghost.

In this way, their team was out of danger, while Lu Ming was in danger, a double blessing.

"Yes, we survived."

Zhou Yisheng was quite moved.

The ghostly phone call gave him a strong sense of oppression, especially the bizarre way the murder was committed, which was extremely terrifying.

In their efforts to figure out the ghost's patterns, they even lost a teammate yesterday.

Fortunately, his [Infinite Regeneration] and [Substitute Death] abilities ultimately saved his life.

Zhou Yisheng looked at the wall clock.

Exactly one second past midnight.

It was indeed past the time of death predicted in the text message.

But he always felt that something was wrong, that something inexplicably strange.

I looked at the wall clock again.

No problem, one second past midnight.

The clock was not hung upside down, and the numbers on it were not mislabeled.

"No, that's not right."

Zhou Yisheng suddenly realized where that faint sense of unease in his heart came from.

The wall clock has stopped running.

The hour, minute, and second hands remained completely still.

"The wall clock is broken. I don't know when it started telling time, but it's become inaccurate. I can't tell the time at all..."

On Monday, Zhou Yisheng instinctively reached into his pocket to take out his phone to check the time.

But it wasn't until he pulled out his phone that he suddenly remembered that they had all lost their phones long ago.

So, whose phone are you holding now?
The question remains unanswered.

The phone rang again.

Moreover, this time it wasn't just Zhou Yisheng's phone that rang. The phones of the other three people in the group also rang at the same time.

It was like a symphony of overlapping melodies playing, with eerie cell phone ringtones rising and falling, overlapping each other.

Nobody knows where these phones came from.

But this is no longer important.

Zhou Yisheng was shocked to discover that the time displayed on his phone was 11:59.

There was still one minute left until the time of death predicted by the ghost call.

A chill suddenly ran down his back.

The death warnings also appeared on the phone screens in front of the other three people at the same time.

They all died within a minute.

"Damn it, the ghost is still nearby. We can't stay here any longer, let's get out of here!"

An uneasy feeling urged Zhou Yisheng on; he gritted his teeth and prepared to jump out of the open window.

But when he turned around, he realized that a little girl had appeared behind him at some point.

The girl was wearing a dirty, worn-out dress and carrying a fruit knife stained with blood in her right hand.

The exposed arms and calves were a chilling bluish-black color, with some veins and bulging veins even directly exposed.

The girl felt very familiar to Zhou Yisheng.

But it took him a moment to realize that this was the same ghost from before!
However, Mizunuma Mimiko removed her highly decomposed head and held it in her left hand, which is why Zhou Yisheng didn't recognize it at first.

The Mimiko at this moment was completely different from the Mimiko just now.

It's like the BOSS has entered the second phase, and the level of terror has skyrocketed.

"Why... what exactly did Lu Ming do? Why has the resentment on the vengeful ghost become so intense?"

The most unbelievable thing was that Zhou Yisheng found himself trapped in this small house, as if he had been trapped in a maze, unable to get out no matter how he walked. He could only watch helplessly as Mizunuma Mimiko walked towards him step by step and stabbed him in the chest with a fruit knife that was still dripping blood.

He collapsed to the ground, utterly powerless.

Mizunuma Mimiko continued to pry open Zhou Yisheng's chest cavity with a fruit knife until the skin, flesh, and internal organs were mixed together in a sticky mess.

The ability [Substitute Death] is activated.

Eighty percent of the damage was transferred to Mizunuma Mimiko, but Mizunuma Mimiko did not show any abnormalities. Even if some skin and flesh fell off, new skin and flesh would quickly grow back.

As for [Infinite Regeneration], it was completely suppressed by Mizunuma Mimiko and had no effect whatsoever.

From a mechanics perspective, the combination of [infinite regeneration] and [substitution] is indeed unsolvable.

However, after Mizunuma Mimiko was pulled into the illusion by Lu Ming, her strength increased to an astonishing level.

In other words, Mizunuma Mimiko crushed Zhou Yisheng's mechanism with sheer force.

When the time just jumped to twelve o'clock.

After the only Tier 5 challenger died on Monday, his four teammates were basically unable to resist and were killed one after another by Mimiko.

All four challengers were dead; their cold corpses lay scattered in the room, blood splattered everywhere, as if a horrific massacre had just taken place there.

Before he died, Zhou Yisheng looked at a puddle in the corner and seemed to see a blurry figure in it.

Only now did he realize that Lu Ming's appearance here was not to lure away the evil spirits, but to kill them indirectly.

Lu Ming is not the one who is naive and foolish.

It's him.

Who... exactly are you?

Although Lu Ming interfered along the way, things unfolded exactly as predicted by the ghost call.

The room fell silent again. The pool of water that had been tainted with supernatural energy had disappeared without anyone noticing. Before leaving, Lu Ming made sure to search the four people for any useful supernatural items they might have.

Unfortunately, Wang Jie, who was killed by Mizunuma Mimiko at the beginning, had already dissipated into a cloud of blood mist, so there was no way to gain anything from him.

Meanwhile, Mizunuma Mimiko, who was holding a rotting human head inside the house, vanished abruptly from the spot.
