The glass, although seemingly sturdy and not like ordinary glass, couldn’t withstand the intense impact of the tentacles.
Even the villa couldn’t endure it.
Under the pounding of the tentacles, the entire villa began to shake violently.
Other players inside the villa were unaware of which part the tentacles were striking, thinking they aimed to destroy the entire structure.
Players, with fearful expressions, stared at the massive tentacles outside the window, retreating in fear.
Some players considered staying inside their rooms, thinking it would be safer, but little did they know that the real threat was these blood-red vines.
After all, on the first night, the blood vines merely wrapped around the Yang family villa, motionless like actual plants.
However, tonight was different.
Players were unprepared, anxiously watching the blood vines strike the villa.
Internally praying for the strength of the Yang family’s villa.
They could barely cope with the blood shadows. How would they deal with a presence capable of easily crushing the entire Yang family villa?
Facing the blood-red vines, they felt utterly powerless, like facing the vastness of the universe.
The blood-red tentacles outside the window merged and grew larger. They were immense, even for a villa resembling a castle.
It wildly shook in the air, as if about to devour the Yang family villa, giving a sense of endless danger and oppression.
Terrifying.
The players near the window could most vividly feel the horror of the tentacles. Some even struggled to breathe, with every cell in their body screaming to run away.
The players followed their inner instincts, opening the door and running in the direction of other villas.
Even the player with the crew cut made the same choice.
Facing these tentacles was worse than dealing with the mysterious blood shadows.
Though similar, these two entities were evidently not on the same level.
There was a chance of surviving against the blood shadows, but facing these eerie tentacles meant certain death.
Fortunately, the tentacles were only striking this particular villa; seeking refuge in other villas would be much safer.
Shen Baiyue’s room was not far from Ruan Qing’s; due to injuries the night before, she had been staying in her room throughout the day.
She watched the tentacle slamming towards the nearby direction, a bad premonition rising in her heart.
Combined with the thudding sound of blood shadows hitting the door, it was evident that something had gone wrong.
Shen Baiyue gently opened her own door, looking through the crack towards the nearby scene.
The doorway of the room not far from her was surrounded by blood shadows.
After confirming, Shen Baiyue closed the door, lowered her gaze, and expressionlessly clenched her right hand.
Even after a day of rest, she still felt somewhat powerless.
It was simply not enough to support her in battling the blood shadows for long.
However, Shen Baiyue picked up a clothes hanger and decisively opened the door.
Taking advantage of the blood shadows’ attention being focused on the door, she silently approached.
Clearly, the clothes hanger was not as sharp as a sword, making it difficult to kill the blood shadows.
It required five or ten times the force to barely disperse the blood shadows.
Moreover, the commotion here continued to attract more blood shadows.
It was very difficult for Shen Baiyue alone to rescue the young man in the room.
Fortunately, at this moment, there was another person by her side, the man named Feng Ye, who had previously saved them.
The two of them worked together to deal with the blood shadows at the door.
The crashing sound continued, but no matter how hard she tried, the door to the room wouldn’t budge.
While the two were dealing with the blood shadows that were attracted here, and trying to figure out how to open the door, the banging inside the room stopped.
However, not long after, more intense banging sounds followed.
The frequency of the impacts increased several times.
Both of them were getting anxious, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t open the door.
It seemed that the Yang family villa did not allow the door to be opened from the outside at night unless the room’s owner violated the Yang family’s rules.
The two could only desperately bang on the door, making even more noise than the blood shadows.
They attempted to violently break the door.
Just as the two were frantically banging on the door, the unexpected sound of snapping fingers rang out nearby.
Then, with a ‘drip’ sound, the door opened.
The two unconsciously turned their heads to look.
Shen Jinzhao was leaning against the door of his room. Obviously he was the one who had just snapped his fingers.
Shen Baiyue, upon seeing Shen Jinzhao looking over, lowered her head with a hint of panic.
Feng Ye glanced and then withdrew his gaze, immediately pushing the door open and entering the room.
Shen Baiyue hurriedly followed.
However, inside the room... no one was there.
A slight panic hit both of them, and they immediately looked towards the window.
Fortunately, the glass window only had numerous cracks from the impact but hadn’t completely shattered.
There was no sign of anyone being dragged out by the tentacles outside the window.
But even though there was no one in the room, the blood-red tentacles outside the window continued to strike the glass, as if they had gone mad.
They didn’t have time to worry about those tentacles. Shen Baiyue and Feng Ye searched the room thoroughly but couldn’t find the person.
However, they found an open ventilation duct in the bathroom.
Under the ventilation duct, there were chairs and miscellaneous items stacked just enough to reach the ventilation duct.
Clearly, the person they were looking for was likely to have crawled in through the ventilation duct.
The ventilation duct wasn’t small; it could easily accommodate a normal-sized adult male.
Without hesitation, Shen Baiyue and Feng Ye crawled in through the ventilation duct.
Seeing this, Shen Jinzhao yawned and went back to his room to sleep.
It seemed as if the commotion in the villa had nothing to do with him.
It was as if his intervention earlier was only because the banging on the door was too loud and disturbed his rest.
***
Indeed, Ruan Qing had escaped through the ventilation duct.
A few minutes ago, Ruan Qing was startled when he saw the cracks in the glass window, and his whole body’s hair stood on end, breaking into a cold sweat instantly.
Before the cracks appeared, it was just frightening to look at.
It was a fear induced by a visual effect, accompanied by a subjective sense of awareness.
But after the cracks appeared, that fear immediately reached its peak, sending shivers down the spine.
It was an indescribable and inexplicable fear.
It felt remarkably similar to the eye in the <Horror Livestream> instance.
Giving off an extremely dangerous vibe.
Ruan Qing instinctively took a few steps back, struggling to swallow a gulp of saliva.
Just as Ruan Qing was about to avert his gaze and leave, he paused, staring at the cracks in the glass.
Even taking a careful look through the telescope.
It wasn’t his imagination.
There was something odd about the cracks in the glass window.
No, it wasn’t the glass that was cracking; it was some transparent substance outside the glass.
It was like the kind of barrier described in cultivation novels.
No wonder an ordinary glass window could withstand for so long.
The glass, although seemingly sturdy and not like ordinary glass, couldn’t withstand the intense impact of the tentacles.
