After completing the bizarre game, the world experienced a global resurgence of strange occurrences.

The moment Ruan Ning slipped into the archives, a pungent musty smell hit her.

The room was filled with iron filing racks, densely packed with somewhat yellowed medical records.

She reached into her pocket and pulled out the lighter Chen Zhuo had given her, her fingertips just pressing the flint wheel.

The moment the pale blue flames flared up, a bone-chilling cold wafted out from the gap in the file rack beside her.

"clang!"

Ruan Ning almost instinctively raised her hand, activating the defensive artifact given to her by Chen Zhuo, and forcefully blocked the sudden attack.

A piercing screeching sound erupted, sending sparks flying.

Using the recoil, Ruan Ning rolled to the other side, and as she turned around, she saw the attacker's appearance clearly.

It was a strange figure with a hunched back, wearing dark blue overalls; he seemed to be an archivist.

It roared from its throat, raised its hands made of paper cutters, and pounced on Ruan Ning again.

Ruan Ning's eyes narrowed, and she quickly activated her magical weapon, fiercely swinging it to meet the attack of the paper cutter.

The moment the blade collided with the paper cutter, a powerful, eerie aura exploded out.

The file shelf vibrated and hummed, nearly causing the yellowed medical records to fall off.

The strange attack was cunning and ruthless. Two paper cutters flew up and down, giving Ruan Ning no chance, and set the medical records in the archives on fire.

Its relentless offensive forced Ruan Ning to retreat repeatedly.

As Ruan Ning thrust her weapon at him, he dodged to the side with a strange movement, while simultaneously slashing down with two paper cutters, attempting to sever her hand at the wrist.

Ruan Ning's pupils contracted sharply, and he abruptly pulled back, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Even so, the blade of the paper cutter still tore her sleeve, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on her forearm.

Scalding hot blood gushed out, dripping onto the ground beneath their feet, spreading into dazzling blood flowers.

While the two sides were locked in combat, sounds could be heard from outside the door from time to time.

Upon hearing this, Ruan Ning's heart skipped a beat.

"Chen Zhuo is still outside the door, single-handedly holding off the hospital director and doing everything he can to buy me time. I absolutely cannot hold him back!"

Ruan Ning took a deep breath, put away the lighter, and planned to deal with the guard in front of him first, and then destroy the medical records in the archives.

Instead of retreating, she advanced towards the strangely thrusting paper cutter, forcefully using the strange weapon to deflect the opponent's attack.

At the same time, her black hair moved without wind, like countless black venomous snakes, sweeping towards the eerie creature.

The strange creature clearly hadn't expected that someone who had only known how to defend would suddenly launch a counterattack.

By the time it realized what was happening, countless black hairs had already wrapped tightly around its entire body like a tidal wave.

It frantically waved the paper cutter in its hand, trying to cut off the black hair that was tangled around it.

But those strands of hair seemed to have a life of their own, deftly avoiding the blade, instead wrapping around it tighter and tighter, gradually cutting into its body.

"Well……"

A frantic roar came from its eerie throat.

But the more it struggled, the tighter the hairs tightened.

In a short time, it was deeply embedded in its body.

Ruan Ning's eyes were icy, and she suddenly tightened her grip on the strange weapon.

She manipulated the strange hair, fixing the eerie thing firmly in place, and then shot off like an arrow.

He plunged the strange weapon in his hand deep into the eerie head.

The moment the treacherous weapon pierced through, a surge of eerie energy, like a tsunami, flooded into the strange creature's body.

Its body froze instantly, deflated at a visible speed like a punctured balloon.

It eventually turned into a pool of foul-smelling black slime, completely dissolving into the papers on the ground.

Ruan Ning pulled back her hair, staggered back a step, and barely managed to steady herself by holding onto the file shelf beside her.

Her eyes were somewhat cloudy, and an eerie aura emanated from her body, spreading uncontrollably in all directions.

After entering the Corrosion Hospital, she used her power too many times. Now, the Heart Gate in her body can only support her to use the Ghostly Release one or two more times!

But right now, she can't care about any of that.

Ruan Ning wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, took out her lighter from her pocket again, and was about to walk toward the file shelf next to her.

But just then, she noticed a file box on the ground.

Ruan Ning leaned closer and saw that the file box had clearly been opened.

She quickly picked it up and found that, just as she had thought, the contents inside had vanished!

Ruan Ning's brows furrowed immediately: "Could it be that someone came in here and took the file before me?"

She immediately remembered Luo Nan, who had arrived at the top floor before them, and promptly took out the detection-type artifact that Chen Zhuo had given her.

She gently shook the magical device, and a clear bell rang out.

The copper bell rang violently towards the depths of the archives, above a file shelf, its body scalding hot.

Ruan Ning's eyes sharpened without the slightest hesitation.

She grabbed the strange weapon in her hand, which resembled a black spear, and thrust it fiercely in the direction indicated by the copper bell.

boom!

With a loud bang, the file shelf was smashed to pieces by the strange weapon.

As the sound came, a figure appeared out of thin air, jumped down from the shelf, and landed steadily on the ground.

Ruan Ning looked closely and revealed an expression that said, "Is this really true?"

The person standing in front of her was none other than Luo Nan!

At that moment, Luo Nan was looking at her with a mocking expression, holding the missing medical record in his hand.

Ruan Ning's mind raced, and she didn't immediately rush forward to snatch the file.

She raised her hand, pressed the lighter, and threw the lit lighter directly onto the file shelf next to her, which was piled with medical records.

A raging fire erupted in an instant, engulfing the yellowed medical records.

Fueled by the wind, the fire quickly spread throughout the entire archives, with thick smoke rising slowly.

Watching the medical records being consumed by the flames, Ruan Ning finally felt much relieved.

She then freed her hands, looked coldly at Luo Nan opposite her, and spoke sharply.

"How did you get in here? What do you want with this medical record?"

Although Luo Nan had disabled his hearing and could not hear any sound, he was proficient in lip reading.

He easily understood Ruan Ning's words, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.

"I have my own way of getting in, you don't need to know."

As for what to do with this medical record? Naturally, it's for fun.

"I haven't had enough of this game yet, how could I let you end it all so easily?"

Luo Nan waved the file in his hand, his smile growing increasingly manic.

The firelight in the archives grew brighter and brighter, casting flickering shadows on the two figures.

Thick smoke billowed upwards, obscuring their vision and making their figures blurry.

The moment Luo Nan finished speaking, Ruan Ning moved.

Using the thick smoke as cover, she charged towards Luo Nan.

Facing Luo Nan, a member of the Raven Organization, Ruan Ning dared not be careless and immediately used all his offensive magical weapons.

Luo Nan, who no longer possessed any of the strange weapons, showed no panic upon seeing Ruan Ning's posture. Instead, he took the initiative to greet her, his smile growing increasingly manic.

In just one exchange, Luo Nan was already at a disadvantage.

Ruan Ning seized the opportunity and swung his weapon fiercely, slashing at Luo Nan's arm.

She could even clearly feel that Luo Nan's arm had separated from his body!

However, Luo Nan seemed oblivious to the pain, and his laughter even carried a hint of excitement and exhilaration.

Just when Ruan Ning thought she had the upper hand, a sharp pain suddenly came from the back of her neck!

As a chill entered her body, the gates of her heart, which were on the verge of losing control, began to slowly open!
