Chapter 126: Edgewalker, A New Mysterious Creature

Clap clap clap!

Tong Qi and Cao Yaxuan slapped hands in celebration, and then she planted a kiss on Xu Lang’s cheek.

The lip gloss from the supermarket smelled nice, and the kiss made Xu Lang’s heart stir.

After resting a moment, Tong Qi began to capture a second Frost Ghost Archmage.

She repeated the previous procedure, and this time she succeeded as well.

“Little Zombie, come out!” Xu Lang summoned a Zombie and said to Tong Qi, “Try its power.”

Two Frost Ghost Archmages floated around Tong Qi, like guardian spirits.

“Mm!” Tong Qi nodded and communicated with the Frost Ghost Archmages with her mind.

Frost Flame Assault!

A burst of frost flame shot at the Zombie, freezing him to pieces in an instant.

Little sparks still burned on the corpse fragments.

“This power is something else!” Xu Lang’s expression showed surprise, he felt this move was no worse than the Fire Dragon Technique.

“Hahaha, thanks to Lang Ge for helping me tame it.” Tong Qi laughed.

“What about me!” Cao Yaxuan wanted credit.

She had added fuel after all!

“Thanks too to Sister Ya, Sister Yazhi, and Teacher Sherry.” Tong Qi obediently said.

Xu Lang and the others all laughed.

To celebrate Tong Qi taming the Frost Ghost Archmage, they made a big meal.

Because the Frost Ghost Archmage was a new ghost pet, Tong Qi needed time to adapt before she could fully control it, so the two ice spirits drifted around the dorm, filling the room with a chill.

After finishing the meal, they hurried back into their blankets.

Watching the Frost Ghost Archmages perform various movements in the room, Xu Lang suddenly sighed, “Sigh, there’s nothing entertaining.”

Meditating and training all the time made him bored too.

“So you treat me as the entertainment?”

Cao Yaxuan blushed, feeling hands groping at her front and back, terribly shy.

“Quick, put them away.” Cao Yaxuan patted Tong Qi.

She didn’t want a live stream, even if they were only two soul monsters.

“You don’t want Xu Ruyan to join, do you?” The two soul monsters vanished and Xu Lang’s tone suddenly changed, adopting a showy swagger like a mountain hawk.

Before long, Cao Yaxuan started whining and calling for help.

How was this different from a live broadcast?

A public execution!

“Hmm? Any objections? Speak up!”

“I just want the five of us to live well together, that’s more important than anything!”

“Alright, the monsters will arrive in a little over two hours!”

“Ah… no please!”

“……”

Cao Yaxuan, normally authoritative and with a stunning figure, even if she only had this one center position, Xu Lang could play with her all day.

In the end, Cao Yaxuan agreed repeatedly, and Xu Lang didn’t let it go.

Of course, whether Cao Yaxuan agreed to Xu Ruyan moving in or not didn’t really matter; Xu Lang only wanted to teach her a lesson, to get her to show off less when nothing was happening.

After this teasing, Cao Yaxuan completely lost her firmness.

When the monsters attacked the building, Sherry and the others would be out fighting, while only she would be lying in bed, unable to get up.

…

[Spiritual Energy +1]

In the study, Xu Lang stopped meditating and glanced at the game countdown.

[Game Countdown — 1 day 16 hours 5 minutes]

“Tonight’s polar night probably won’t be simple.” Xu Lang opened the chat with Zhang Dahai and left a brief reminder.

That kid liked to wander outdoors.

[33 Zhang Dahai: I got it, bro. Oh, bro, can you sell your Blood Flame Lantern to me?]

[200 Xu Lang: You’re still outside?]

[33 Zhang Dahai: Yup, I’m working for Uncle Wen. He made a treasure map (image)]

Xu Lang opened the image and saw it was a tunnel. He was a little curious but didn’t ask more.

[200 Xu Lang: Okay, be careful]

[33 Zhang Dahai: Thanks, bro]

Inside the tunnel, Zhang Dahai rubbed his hands together and hung up the Blood Flame Lantern.

“I want to go home too, but the more I stay home, the more dangerous it is for my sequence.” Zhang Dahai sighed.

When he told Li Shuwen before, he hadn’t told the truth.

The Edgewalker’s sequence level was not D-12, but D-3.

This was a top-ten power within the D-grade sequences, and its abilities were very unique.

— Gains large base attribute boosts when away from crowds!

— Can remain hidden from detection indefinitely, with no side effects or consumption!

— Staying still can evade enemy perception!

— Movement speed increases while sneaking!

Nearly every core ability pushed him to stay away from people.

Returning to crowds meant being severely weakened.

“Sigh, don’t think so much, keep digging. My life is destined to be lonely.”

…

On the eve of the polar night, Xu Lang glanced at the night outside the dormitory building and then closed the door.

“Two more days, then I can really rest.”

Xu Lang closed the door and thought silently.

Although he was lying flat, it was still game time, so he couldn’t be completely idle.

[Dormitory Broadcast: Polar night descends, pitch-black darkness arrives. Ten brand-new mysterious creatures have appeared. Players please be alert]

Soon, bad news spread through the chatroom.

A player had been killed by a monster!

The message came from his roommate.

At the time, that player had opened his door trying to lure the mysterious creature, but others only saw a pale claw reach from the darkness and the player’s heart was ripped out!

Preliminary assessment: this was a high-level combat-type monster!

Combat-type monsters typically have average door-breaching ability but extremely strong fighting power, often the elite of monster groups.

Players who like to sweep buildings outdoors most fear this kind of monster.

For a while, players panicked and bolted their doors.

“One-hit kill?”

Xu Lang frowned.

Someone daring enough to lure a monster must have skills, yet die so cleanly.

At that moment, a muffled thud suddenly came from outside the door.

Boom!

The Super Alloy Steel Door was being struck!

Boom boom boom!

After several continuous hits, the Super Alloy Steel Door’s durability decreased a little.

“The way it breaks the door is different, today’s monster really is unusual!” Wang Yazhi walked over with her sword, her expression grave.

Xu Lang nodded, moved behind the Void Splitter, and held his breath slightly.

In an instant, his Sixth Sense opened wide, tracking every movement of the creature outside the door.

This time he didn’t use the Ghost Child’s Eyewitness.

The moment the creature’s fist struck the door, he decisively pulled the trigger, timing absolutely precise.

Pfft pfft pfft!

Three shells pierced the body of the creature outside the door.

However, the opponent only let out a pained scream and did not die.

“Interesting, even the Void Splitter can’t one-shot it.” Xu Lang smiled lightly.

So now the question was, with its life sharply reduced, would it continue to break the door?

Blood Servants could regenerate; the one attacking the door should be a similar kind of creature.
