The hand holding the soup froze in mid-air.

His forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Are you kidding me! It's poisoned soup?

Damn system, are you even giving newbie players a chance to survive!

The thought of almost gulping down the poisoned soup made Fang Yue speechless.

You have to know, dying once in this game means waiting 24 hours to re-enter. And the previous character is truly dead, requiring you to start a new character from scratch.

It's like starting all over again, the death penalty is incredibly harsh.

And they arrange a kill at the beginning? How are new players supposed to play?

"Big brother, drink your soup."

The sweet voice surrounded Fang Yue's ears.

Fang Yue looked up, only to feel that the little girl's smile was no longer warm and lovely, but sinister and malicious!

Outside the dilapidated temple, the heavy rain continued.

Boom!

Another thunderclap exploded.

At that moment, Fang Yue suddenly froze.

Because in the light of the thunder, he saw clearly.

The little girl was still holding out the bowl, but her open palm was covered with fingernails.

A person's hand, the front and back of all five fingertips, were covered with fingernails!

And the sound of friction when she held the bowl was clearly the sound of fingernails scraping against the porcelain bowl!

-1!

His body froze.

Fang Yue, holding the scalding poisoned soup, saw a hp-1 notification pop up above his head, completely out of sync.

This, this, this, is this still human?

"Big brother, why aren't you drinking your soup?"

The little girl's lovely voice sounded again, like a death knell.

And behind the little girl, the little boy's face was ashen, and he was trembling all over.

At that moment, Fang Yue understood everything.

So, from the beginning, the little boy wasn't afraid of him, but of the female ghost next to him!

Thinking of his pathetic stats and 4/50 health points, Fang Yue was sure that he absolutely couldn't beat this female ghost!

Raising his head and forcing a stiff smile, Fang Yue said, "Thank you for your kindness, but this soup is a bit hot. I'll drink it later..."

"No, you can't, big brother. Hot soup warms the stomach. It's best to drink it now."

The little girl looked at him with a smile, but her cute expression made Fang Yue's forehead drip with cold sweat.

If he died today, the game watch he worked so hard to snatch would lose its meaning.

If he couldn't get ahead of the others, how would he make big money in the game?

"Is, is that so? Okay, I'll drink it now."

-1.

The hp reduction notification popped up above his head again.

Health points: 3/50 (severely injured).

But Fang Yue had already calmed down at this moment.

Holding the poisoned soup steadily with both hands, Fang Yue looked at the little female ghost close at hand with a smile.

Under the little female ghost's expectant gaze, he slowly brought the bowl closer to his mouth.

The little female ghost's head also leaned forward slowly, as if wanting to see Fang Yue drink the poisoned soup with her own eyes.

If Fang Yue hadn't known the truth, he would have thought this was the cute reaction of a little girl hoping that others would drink the thick soup she had personally made.

But now, Fang Yue only felt that this was a demon urging him to die!

He observed calmly, his muscles and nerves tense.

At the moment when the poisoned soup was about to be poured into his mouth, he suddenly reached out his hand!

Before the little female ghost could react, he grabbed her mouth and, with the fastest speed, poured the poisoned soup into her mouth!

You want to kill me? I'll kill you first!

"Ugh, ugh?!"

The sudden movement caught the little female ghost off guard.

Her eyes widened, struggling in horror, her strength frighteningly great, and she sent Fang Yue flying.

Bang!

His back ached, and Fang Yue slammed hard into the pillar of the dilapidated temple.

-1!

hp: 2/50 (severely injured).

His life hanging by a thread, Fang Yue didn't have time to care, but suddenly raised his head to look in the direction of the little female ghost.

There wasn't enough time just now, he only managed to pour half a bowl of poisoned soup before being thrown out, and he didn't know if it could kill the little female ghost.

As a result, as soon as Fang Yue raised his head, he saw the little female ghost covering her throat and roaring silently. The most terrifying thing was above the little female ghost's head.

-1!

-1!

-1!

-1!

The values weren't high, but the frequency was terrifyingly fast. The violent blood loss frequency was jumping wildly above the little female ghost's head, the numbers densely packed together.

Tear!!

At this moment, the little female ghost suddenly tore open her own throat.

A blood-colored number, similar to a critical hit, floated above her head.

-100!

Her throat torn open with a bloody hole, blood gushing out, the little female ghost still wasn't dead, and she could actually make a sound now.

"Cough! Cough! Cough cough cough!"

"What did you do! What did you do!!!"

Her voice was sharp and ear-piercing, completely different from her previous sweet voice!

At the same time, fish scale-like fingernails were flipping out on her arms one by one!

Densely packed fingernail covers covered her entire arm, looking terrifying.

But her body had already begun to twitch, oozing black blood.

This soup is indeed terribly poisonous!

"You're still asking me what I did? Bold monster! I could tell at a glance that you're not human!"

Watching the little female ghost lying weakly on the ground, twitching in all her limbs.

He didn't know where he got the strength, but Fang Yue rushed over and kicked over the iron pot!

When his foot hit the pot, a number appeared above Fang Yue's own head.

-1!

Damn, this broken body, isn't it going to kill itself?

The kicked-over iron pot, the scalding poisoned soup immediately splashed out, covering a large area of the little female ghost's body.

Zzzzzz!!!

Dozens of values simultaneously burst out of the little female ghost's body, jumping wildly.

-11!

-11!

-11!

-11!

-11!

"Ahhh! Stop! Stop it!!"

Boom!!

Thunder sounded again.

Mixed with the ear-piercing screams. kanδん

When the thunder fell and darkness returned to the dilapidated temple, the temple was silent.

The little female ghost was now dead, leaving only a pile of fine ash fragments, like human ashes.

At the same time, a white light suddenly lit up on Fang Yue's body.

Familiar music seemed to be playing around him.

The light of righteousness shines on the earth…

"Ding!"

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dawn] for killing the strange creature [Index Finger Ghoul]. Rewarded with Force Manipulation +10, Force Resistance +10, Lifespan +1 day."

"Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player [Night Dawn] for killing [Index Finger Ghoul]. As the first player to kill a [Strange Creature], the system specially rewards [Human-grade Random Talent], rewards [Lifespan: 10 days]. Please other players keep up the good work!"

Damn, a server-wide announcement?

The first person in the entire game to get the first kill.

Then aren't I awesome!

"Ding!"

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dawn] for increasing lifespan by 10 days."

"When lifespan reaches zero, the hellish constables will take the player's life."

"Please players keep a sufficient lifespan at all times."

"Does player [Night Dawn] want to draw [Human-grade Random Talent] now?"

Of course, I have to draw!

A semi-transparent roulette appeared out of thin air, the pointer spinning rapidly.

Written on the roulette were all Human-grade talents, of various types, dazzling to the eye.

When Fang Yue silently said 'stop' in his heart, the roulette slowed down, and finally pointed to...

"Congratulations to player [Night Dawn] for obtaining the Human-grade High Talent [Breath of the Night]."

"Name: Breath of the Night."

"Grade: Human-grade High."

"Effect 1: Daytime Force Manipulation -20, Force Resistance -20."

"Effect 2: Nighttime Force Manipulation +20, Force Resistance +20."

"Effect 3: At night, greatly increase health point recovery speed."

"Effect 4: At night, moderately increase injury recovery speed."

"Note: Breath of the Night, during the day, I'm a useless person. At night, I'm Superman. Are you a vampire?"

Human-grade high talent!

It looks pretty awesome, but… isn't the daytime combat power reduced too much?

Opening his stats to take a look, Fang Yue's pupils suddenly shrank.

Damn!

His health points were jumping rapidly.

1.

5.

15.

30.

50.

This health recovery speed is soaring!

And his body also became warm and comfortable, his injuries quickly healing.

"System notification: Congratulations, you have recovered from the severely injured state."

This is the Breath of the Night? I love it!
