Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

……

Sylvia and Winston, who were anxiously waiting in the corridor, were staring intently at the door of room 514 that Zhao Hao had stormed into.

After Zhao Hao went inside, the door closed by itself.

Winston looked at the thing Zhao Hao had handed him and couldn't help but smile wryly: Was he trying to make me fight some alien monster with this? Was he trying to make him laugh to death?

In his hand was a paper knife cut from thick cardboard. Although it looked quite impressive, it was only ten centimeters long, and in Winston's hands, it was as small and cute as a thumb biscuit.

Sylvia, meanwhile, stood with her arms crossed over her chest, praying nervously, though she didn't even know who to pray to.

She had once believed in God, but God had not shown her any mercy. She had also prayed to other legendary deities, but there was no response.

Now, she doesn't even know who to pray to.

But whoever you are, please help this boy! Let me, let me fight against fate one more time!

Just then, Winston's face suddenly felt wet as a raindrop fell on his face.

(While I was writing this sentence, I suddenly felt a drop of water fall on my face, which startled me! I was even hallucinating from writing it _(:з」∠)_)

He wiped his hand in confusion and found it covered in bright red blood.

He looked up and saw countless drops of blood falling from the ceiling of the corridor!

In the blink of an eye, he was drenched in blood by this sudden downpour.

Thick, foul-smelling blood flowed from his head down his cheeks and dripped onto the ground.

Winston froze on the spot, as if a bomb had exploded in his heart, powerful enough to destroy all common sense.

He stared blankly at the ceiling, his expression vacant, his lips trembling.

Meanwhile, Sylvia was in an even worse state. She saw the door to room 514 suddenly burst open, and a torrent of blood rushed out!

The entire corridor was like a floodgate, and an unstoppable wave of blood surged forth!

"Don't just stand there! Be careful!"

As soon as Zhao Hao stepped outside, he saw his two friends standing there dumbfounded, while a splatter of blood was shooting towards Sylvia!

The two were caught in a hallucination caused by a sudden increase in their spiritual vision. If they are not soothed in time, they may even suffer permanent sequelae, such as fear of blood, hemophobia, or bloodlust.

Zhao Hao believed that this tainted female ghost was a Black Iron 5-star, as the psionic distortion it brought was too intense for the two of them.

Winston was just an ordinary person, while Sylvia, although considered a superhuman, was a self-taught individual who had awakened naturally and was seeing this kind of spectacle for the first time.

"Dump truck ramming!"

Zhao Hao roared and charged forward at breakneck speed like a runaway tractor, shattering the paving stones with each step. He left several afterimages as he rushed toward the bloody mass in mid-air.

At this moment, he was faster than the swirling blood, but the corridor was not very long, and he couldn't intercept it before the swirling blood touched the two of them!

"The monkey drops the peach!"

Zhao Hao roared again and threw out a small object.

The object struck the bloodstain directly, but instead of penetrating through it like it would when hitting liquid, it sent the bloodstain flying in a misty spray before it fell to the ground.

It was the [Demon-Slaying Chocolate] that Zhao Hao had in his hand!

Having suffered repeated blows, the tainted blood demon seemed to be reaching her limit. Sylvia and Winston, who were trapped in a psychic hallucination, broke free from the illusion.

As soon as they broke free of the illusion, they saw a terrifying monster not far away—wearing a long purple robe, a hat with two "wings," a thick, bushy beard, and eyes bulging like two copper bells. It exuded a chilling aura!

Winston shielded Sylvia behind him with one hand, standing in front of Zhao Hao. "My God! What kind of monster is this?"

Zhao Hao was taken aback: Who are you calling a monster? Oh, right, I forgot to change my skin.

Zhao Hao quickly changed out of the [Deadly Judge] costume and revealed his true form, reassuringly saying, "Don't be afraid, I am Zhao Hao. That was just a little magic trick of mine."

As he spoke, he pulled out some plastic wrap and walked over to cover the pool of blood on the ground.

Just then, a light suddenly came on in a nearby dormitory room, and someone muttered that they wanted to open the door to see who was driving a tank in the corridor!

Zhao Hao swiftly tossed out a talisman and stuck it to the door, sealing it to the frame. The girl inside tried to push it open several times but couldn't.

Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief; it would be terrible if someone saw this scene.

Unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred at this moment. The filthy blood two steps in front of Zhao Hao suddenly disappeared, and not far behind Sylvie, from the shiny stainless steel strip on the wall of a corridor, half of the upper body of the filthy blood ghost and a long arm emerged!

The successive blows had severely damaged it, leaving its body only a tiny remnant. But it didn't matter; as long as it killed the girl and drank her blood, it would be completely healed!

The next instant, in front of Zhao Hao and Winston, a gaunt, ghostly hand with long, blood-red fingernails emerged from Sylvia's chest!

Just two steps away, Winston's eyes widened, veins bulging on his forehead, and his teeth clenched. Having witnessed his companion's death before his eyes, he was consumed by rage, which even outweighed his fear of the terrifying monster!

At this moment, he suddenly rushed towards the blood-stained female ghost, and the paper knife in his hand had somehow transformed into a large, silver-gleaming knife more than a meter long!

"Die!" Winston severed the bloodstained female ghost's rear half, connecting it to the shiny stainless steel with a string of filthy blood like an umbilical cord.

The tainted blood demon didn't care at all; it wanted to burrow into Sylvia's body and take over this more gifted one.

The next instant, Sylvia before its eyes transformed into a tiny paper doll adorning its fingernails...

------------

Chapter 99 What a coincidence!

It turned out that Zhao Hao had prepared a plan before entering room 514 because he was worried that something might happen to Sylvia.

He recently learned a trick called "substituting one thing for another" from Uncle Tie. Although it's a relatively low-level technique, it can be quite useful if used properly.

It's somewhat like the Substitution Jutsu from Naruto.

If you prepare in advance, you can use paper figures to block attacks.

At this moment, the real Sylvia appeared in a daze by the wall five steps away, watching dumbfounded as the monster pierced her chest with a claw and turned her into a paper doll.

"So that's how it is! I didn't die! I don't have to die! I won!"

Sylvia was in tears because the dark eyeshadow from her smoky makeup had left two black streaks on her face.

After discovering that Sylvia was not dead, Winston quickly calmed down and cleaved the bright silver stainless steel wall in two with a single blow.

Zhao Hao mentally gave Winston a thumbs up. He had realized so quickly that the tainted female ghost might have the ability to travel through mirrors, which was why he shattered the stainless steel glitter piece, worried that it would escape again.

The filthy female ghost realized she had been tricked and that her escape route had been destroyed. Enraged, she spat a mouthful of filthy blood at Winston.

At this moment, Zhao Hao had already rushed over. Seeing this, he abandoned his attack on the Bloodstained Woman, leaped forward and pushed Winston away, while raising his arm to block the Bloodstained Woman.

This thing doesn't look like anything good. Zhao Hao used his Mage's Hand to wrap his arm, blocking the filthy blood.

The filthy blood contained a large amount of strange spiritual energy; it was indeed unusual!

The area covered by the mage's hand was alright; the foul blood was blocked by the mage's hand, but the mage's hand was also corroded by the foul blood.

However, some blood splattered onto Zhao Hao's exposed upper arms and shoulders.

Zhao Hao immediately felt a strange, icy spiritual energy invading his skin, beginning to destroy the flesh and blood of his arm.

He was wearing a vest at the time, and his shoulders were visibly turning bruised and swollen.

Zhao Hao took out an exorcism talisman and slapped it on his shoulder, dispersing much of the evil spiritual energy and preventing it from worsening.

Looking again at the blood-stained female ghost, it had actually transformed into a mass of blood and was swimming away into the distance. Having been severely injured several times, it was completely exhausted and could no longer fly, so it crawled quickly on the ground.

"Bound!" Zhao Hao immediately used a barrier spell to trap him.

I'm not saving any more money, this thing is too good at hiding.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Zhao Hao immediately took out the Heavenly Capital Five Thunder Talisman that he always carried with him.

He downed a mouthful of magic bottle and used his wand to fully restore his psionic energy; by then, even the wound on his shoulder had healed considerably.

"Pardon! Summon Thunder!" Zhao Hao channeled his spiritual energy into the Heavenly Capital Five Thunder Talisman and casually tossed it out.

"Crack!" The windows of the entire floor were shattered by the banging.

A deafening clap of thunder suddenly rang out in Dormitory No. 3, and then the entire building lost power.

The entire dormitory building shook violently, and screams of girls awakened by the thunder could be heard everywhere.

The dormitory building, which was originally almost entirely dark, now appears to have lights on in almost every window from the outside.

"Boom!"

A dormitory door on the fourth floor was suddenly smashed open, and the entire door was shattered into pieces the size of a palm.

A white-haired girl emerged, carrying an ancient samurai sword. Behind her, psionic energy swirled like mist, within which seemed to sway a giant red demon head.

It turned out to be that exchange student from Japan, Nanaya Saki, who was in the same literary club as Zhao Hao!

She carried a knife, with a massive, monstrous demon that seemed to reach the ceiling looming behind her as she walked up the stairs.

Hearing the commotion and sensing the unfamiliar spiritual energy fluctuations, Zhao Hao, clutching several talismans, looked warily down the stairs. In the shadows, Wangcai bared its teeth and claws.

The two looked at each other.

……

At that moment, downstairs in the girls' dormitory, Colt and the others, who had just gotten out of the car, were caught in the devastating explosion and hurriedly dodged the falling glass.

"Quick! Get in!" A group of men in black, fully armed and carrying various equipment, rushed into the girls' dormitory building.

About three minutes later, yellow and black police tape had been put up on the ground, and the students in the No. 3 girls' dormitory building were being calmed down and would soon be orderly led away from there.

"Don't worry, everyone. It was an explosion caused by a student's improper use of natural gas. Everything is fine now. The college will arrange accommodation for tonight, and we will work through the night to repair the damage. Please stay calm and don't panic..."

Meanwhile, in the shadows under a tree in the distant green belt, the man wearing a top hat and a tailcoat was gripping his walking stick tightly!

"After countless hardships and meticulous planning... it turned out... damn it! Damn it, the mysterious scheme!"

This black book was something he acquired at great expense and with a huge cost, and he even sacrificed one of his Black Queen pieces.

He placed the book in the library, letting it choose its own target, and then summoned a mirror ghost to create the finest Black Queen.

This was a crucial step for him to break through to the Bronze level.

Eight years have passed since the psychic resurgence, and he has been preparing for this event, but he never expected to mess it up here!

At this time, psionic energy has just begun to recover, and there are not many powerful individuals yet, making it the best time.

Eight years of hard work and meticulous planning have all come to naught.

In fact, just a short while ago, he suddenly sensed that something unexpected had happened to the plan. The ceremony had been affected and changed!
