Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Nightfall Crisis
Wanna try?
The two women exchanged glances as they listened to this.
"Why don’t we sleep together? I’m really worried that after being in this creepy place alone, my Spiritual Power will be completely drained by tomorrow."
Song Qianqian thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said.
Her close friend beside her heard this and thought about it, then nodded.
She was indeed worried that something bad might happen while sleeping, and being together would be relatively safer.
Seeing the two women decide, Song Qingyun didn’t stop them, only told them to shout loudly if anything happened, and they would come to help.
After finishing the instructions, everyone went back to their own rooms.
As everyone returned to their rooms, the group of seven, though not staying in the same room, unanimously decided not to turn off the lights, planning to sleep with the lights on.
The room lights were still very bright, providing them with some sense of security.
Under the tension, everyone tossed and turned, and as night deepened, they suddenly felt their eyelids grow heavy, before falling into a deep sleep.
However, moments after they fell asleep, the seven lights that had been on suddenly extinguished one by one.
Room 704.
Lin Yuxin suddenly felt that the temperature around her started to drop, and instinctively grabbed the blanket nearby as the chill seeped in.
As she grabbed the blanket, she started to cover herself while wondering why it suddenly became so cold.
But in the next moment, Lin Yuxin suddenly felt a chill in her heart, as if she sensed something.
"Is she in a Horror Dungeon?"
Thinking of this, her drowsiness instantly vanished, and Lin Yuxin instinctively clung to her friend’s body for some comfort, staring wide-eyed and bewildered.
She remembered that they hadn’t turned off the lights when they went to sleep.
Why did the lights go out?
Did Song Qianqian turn them off?
Thinking this, she couldn’t help but hold Song Qianqian tighter.
"Ah, Qianqian, why is your body so cold? Don’t catch a cold."
Feeling the chill from her friend’s body, Lin Yuxin pulled up the blanket to cover her a bit more and moved closer to her.
This ghostly place, she’s truly terrified.
But as she moved closer to her friend, her body suddenly stiffened.
She might not be mistaken, but her friend’s body shouldn’t be like this...
Before, she had slept in the same bed with her friend several times, and her friend’s body shouldn’t feel like this, so unfamiliar.
With this thought, a chill ran straight to her head.
In a panic, she hurriedly retreated.
"Thud!"
Lin Yuxin felt a sharp pain in her backside as she fell heavily to the floor.
But she didn’t care about the pain, she hurriedly tried to find the switch.
"Yuxin, what’s wrong?"
At this moment, a concerned voice came from the bathroom a few steps away.
Hearing this voice, Lin Yuxin’s heart relaxed slightly, but she still groped for the light, "Song Qianqian, are you in the bathroom?"
"Yes, I was just in a rush to use the toilet."
The voice answered as the person came to the door.
In the room, a vague silhouette could still be seen in the bathroom.
But without the light, looking at the silhouette in the darkness, Lin Yuxin’s heart couldn’t suppress the chill.
"Snap!"
At this moment, Lin Yuxin successfully found the switch. As the light came on, the familiar figure appeared, instantly making Lin Yuxin breathe a sigh of relief.
She quickly turned her head to look at the bed.
But the bed was empty, with no one there.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yuxin was immediately terrified, her face turning pale and her body trembling.
Seeing this, Song Qianqian was frightened too, quickly stepping forward and grabbing her hand, "What’s wrong? What happened?"
"Just... just now there was someone on the bed."
Lin Yuxin stammered, shaking as she pointed to the big bed.
Song Qianqian looked and then said, "There’s no one?"
"Really..."
At this point, Lin Yuxin was almost in tears from fear, her Spiritual Power was rapidly dropping.
Fortunately, Song Qianqian nearby gave her a bit of safety.
Following Song Qingyun’s words, she tried her best to calm her emotions when her Spiritual Power started dropping rapidly.
She remembered what Song Qingyun said about not letting Spiritual Power drop too fast, or it would be dangerous.
....
Creak....
Room 703.
Zhou Yingting was lying on the bed asleep, not knowing when he started feeling like his eyelids were as heavy as stones, and after a slight blink, he couldn’t keep them open.
Just as he was drifting into sleep, a muffled sound echoed as if someone had pushed open the door to Room 703.
Upon hearing the noise, Zhou Yingting suddenly opened his eyes and quickly looked towards the door.
But it was pitch black there, as if something was hidden in the darkness, silently watching him.
Zhou Yingting frowned, quietly observing that spot, not noticing his Spiritual Power was slowly decreasing.
"Turn on the light and see."
Zhou Yingting thought and moved slowly to turn on the light.
But as his body just moved, suddenly the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom.
It was the sound of the tap being turned on.
Zhou Yingting’s nerves instantly tightened, he quickly turned on the light.
With the light on, everything around the room was seen clearly.
But the tap in the bathroom continued to run water.
Looking at this, Zhou Yingting thought for a moment and decided not to go to the bathroom.
Let the tap run.
Going in alone might be dangerous.
Though Zhou Yingting thought this, whatever was in the bathroom seemed dissatisfied.
Moments later, the sound of rushing water grew louder, and clear water started slowly flowing out of the bathroom, spreading around.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yingting’s Spiritual Power began to decrease rapidly.
Zhou Yingting noticed the anomaly, checked his panel, and saw his Spiritual Power had only dropped by ten points, so he was relieved.
From entering the dungeon until now, his Spiritual Power had recovered five points, and now under the influence of the anomaly, it had dropped less than ten points.
So his Spiritual Power was still at 187 points, plenty to spare.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yingting wielded the Han Sword, coldly glaring at the bathroom.
If the thing dared to come out, he’d slash it; if it stayed hidden, he’d let it be.
His Spiritual Power was strong enough to handle it.
If only the Startled Swan didn’t consume so much Spiritual Power, he’d have already used it to destroy the bathroom with a strike.
