Jiang Yao pretended not to know, stepped on the sticky blood on the tiles with his feet, and inspected the body inside.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught the gloomy air behind him.

"Shua"

The grass-cutting scythe pierced the air, suddenly slashing at the strange creature behind him at a speed that was beyond the reach of the naked eye.

Its lower body was bloated like a rotten octopus, with countless tentacles stuck to the tiles, and yellow-green pustules bulged out on the surface of its skin.

The scythe chopped off more than ten of its tentacles. The monster was sensitive to pain and let out a sharp scream.

"Ahhhh..."

Jiang Yao ignored it, but looked at the blade corroded by pus. The foul-smelling pus dripped down the tip of the blade, and the blade was pitted.

The durability of the scythe dropped below 5%.

Already scrapped.

She threw away the sickle with some regret, put on the cowhide gloves she bought during the day, and bought a butcher's knife in the mall.

"Kill you! Kill you!!!"

The strange octopus triggers a furious state, and its wriggling tentacles expand and extend rapidly, and it is about to occupy the entire girls' toilet——

Outside the toilet.

Listening to the banging and the ground shaking inside, the female ghost in red trembled and looked in the direction of the toilet in fear.

ten minutes later.

Jiang Yao walked out of the toilet and shook his wet hands.

Meeting the shrinking gaze of the female ghost in red, he explained: "I encountered an octopus, which delayed me for some time."

The female ghost in red trembled even more.

octopus? What kind of octopus is that? It's obviously a pervert hiding in the girls' toilet and peeping. Died in the toilet and became a monster.

Jiang Yao said: "It said it saw you being carried away by the restaurant owner. As for where it was carried, it didn't know."

When the female ghost in red heard the words 'Restaurant Owner', her whole body became filled with yin energy and she was filled with resentment. Her hair hanging loosely on her shoulders was floating in the air, and she was extremely angry.

The system suddenly appeared at this moment.

"Random missions are upgraded to platinum-level missions, and the rewards are increased."

Bronze level, gold level, platinum level...

The best quest level is Obsidian.

Platinum level is equivalent to player level 20.

The difficulty is unimaginable.

"Please find my body-"

A line of bloody tears flowed from the corners of the eyes of the female ghost in red.

Jiang Yao was about to speak, but the human skin lantern in his hand suddenly went out.

Darkness came, and the gray fog wrapped around his ankles gradually tightened.

[HP: 97…85…]

And her health dropped faster and faster.

Jiang Yao didn't hesitate and bought a prop that was better than the human skin lantern to dispel the gray fog in the mall.

It cost her 200 thriller points.

The moment he touched the prop, a line of information appeared in front of him.

[Merman Oil Lamp (Gold Level): It existed in the tomb of the emperor who unified the world a thousand years ago and will never be destroyed for thousands of years. It is an essential tool to dispel fog, please keep it properly. ]

As soon as she took out the oil lamp, the wildly surging gray fog around her suddenly dissipated, and the pain in her ankle disappeared.

"Do you... want to go back and take a nap?" the female ghost in red asked cautiously.

She has memories of her life and knows very well that humans need sleep. Especially in the horror world, mental value is as important as health value. If it drops to zero, people will become the lowest level, irrational monsters.

Jiang Yao drooped his eyes, the whites of his eyes covered with bloodshot eyes. She waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "No need to sleep."

She couldn't sleep, so she might as well come out and stretch her muscles.

The female ghost in red thought she was doing it for herself, and was so moved that she burst into tears.

The restaurant owner's residence is not in the staff dormitory, but in a luxury box on the third floor.

There are guards guarding the stairs. You need to take the elevator from the second floor to the third floor. You must have a special card to go up to the third floor.

What's more, the restaurant owner never goes downstairs except for extremely important occasions.

These low-level employees may work hard for ten years without ever seeing their boss.

After Jiang Yao collected this information, the sky outside the window slowly darkened and the gray fog gradually receded.

It's almost dark.

"I'll come see you tomorrow night."

She left these words to the female ghost in red and quickly returned to the dormitory.

I fell asleep for two hours.

After waking up, Jiang Yao's mental value returned to 90 points again, and his health value was 30 points.

It’s just that there are less than 100 Thriller coins left in the account.

"What did I do before going to bed?!"

Jiang Yao stood up suddenly and checked the account back and forth.

She has always been ill.

Insomnia will turn her into another person, half sane and treating money like dirt.

This is why, after making so much money for so many years, she only has 200 yuan in savings left.

The memory of what she had before going to bed was hazy, and no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't recall all the details.

Just remember the little details.

Accepted a random mission...

"We must solve this insomnia problem in the future." She sighed resignedly.

Otherwise she would never be able to save money.

After washing briefly, she walked out of the dormitory and saw other players gathering together to discuss what happened while sleeping during the day.

"The mist was very strange. When I touched it, it felt like I had been bitten by something." As he spoke, the man stretched out his hand, and there were vicious, insect-bitten wounds on the back of his hand.

It makes people's scalp numb.

"You must not extinguish this human skin lantern, otherwise you will definitely die." A player who has been in the horror forum for a long time said seriously.

The gray fog dissipates at night and appears during the day, and only a human skin lantern can resolve it.

"Sister, didn't you sleep well?"

Liu Ziyuan came over and saw that her eyelids were clearly black and blue, and couldn't help but asked worriedly.

For Jiang Yao, he was lucky to be able to sleep for two hours a night. It was difficult to sleep for even a minute before, but my mental state was better than yesterday.

She glanced at the boy who also had two dark circles under his eyes and replied, "It's not bad."

Liu Ziyuan didn't close his eyes all night, he rubbed his sore eyes, his brows and eyes were full of sleepiness.

There was always movement outside the dormitory door, coaxing him to open the door. He could only buy earplugs in the mall and spend the night staring at the human skin lantern.

I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes. It was a new day and work was about to start again.

"Another person died."

Player Wang Meimei turned pale, pursed her lips, and whispered.

Number of people alive so far: 4.

Jiang Yao, Liu Ziyuan, Wang Meimei, and Kong Zaichang.

They are all acquaintances.

In less than two days, six of ten people died.

There are fewer and fewer players, but it does not affect the operation of the restaurant at all.

"You and you go to the food department, and you two go to the reception department."

The old man in black Tang suit they saw on the first day appeared in front of them again.

Glancing at them all with a sinister gaze, the old man licked his rat-like black teeth and pointed at them with his fingers.

Jiang Yao was assigned to the reception department.

With her is Kong Zaichang.

Kong Zaichang originally had an ugly face, but when he learned that he would be working with her today, his eyes lit up for a moment, and a hint of calculation flashed through his eyes.

Maybe he can devour her innate abilities today.

"Sister Yao, I'm so happy. I didn't expect to be a colleague with you." He showed no scheming and expressed all the joy in his heart.

Kong Zaichang thought maliciously.

Those six people died well, otherwise he wouldn't have had the chance to get close to Jiang Yao.
