Not only did the four players encounter this situation, but players in other dormitories also faced various circumstances.
Therefore, when they saw Ji Zhiyuan and the others running out of the dormitory, some players chose to leave together with them.
However, a few players with less courage chose to stay in the dormitory, waiting for daylight.
The players who ran into each other in the corridor didn’t have time for small talk; they immediately ran towards the downstairs of the dormitory.
Although the power in the dormitory had been cut off at eleven, the lights in the corridor were still on.
However, due to the unique orientation of Building A and Building B, the balconies faced the wind direction. In case of rain, the rain would drift into the balcony, making it very inconvenient for drying clothes on rainy days.
So the dormitory building had railings installed in the corridor for hanging clothes. Most students were accustomed to airing their clothes in the corridor.
Due to the presence of clothes, the corridor’s light was slightly blocked.
The shadows of the clothes cast on the ground looked somewhat distorted and eerie, resembling monstrous figures.
It looked somewhat creepy.
Occasionally, a breeze blew in from the end of the corridor, causing the clothes to sway slightly.
Under the illumination of the light, the shadows on the ground swayed with the wind, giving people a particularly uncomfortable feeling after watching for a while.
As if monsters had come to life...
The players didn’t look up at the clothes above their heads but quickly and silently ran downstairs. There was no sound along the way.
It wasn’t until the players ran down from the dormitory that they realized that the First University at this moment seemed to be in a completely different world from the noisy daytime.
The entire campus was terrifyingly silent and dark.
Only the streetlights were still dimly lit, but their light was too weak to illuminate far.
The world was extremely quiet.
Upon careful listening, some rustling sounds seemed to come from certain dark corners.
It inexplicably evoked a chilling sense of fear.
The players didn’t hesitate much and immediately ran towards the First University teaching building.
Usually, only the dormitories turned off their lights at night, and the teaching building remained lit.
Being in well-lit areas might indeed feel safer, even if it’s just a psychological effect, it could bring a sense of comfort to people.
As a group, their movements were too conspicuous, so eventually, the players decided to split up by dormitory rooms and investigate different areas of the school for clues.
Ruan Qing had always had poor stamina; he started breathing heavily after running a few steps.
Ji Zhiyuan looked back at the young man trailing behind, slightly slowing down his pace.
Probably afraid of being left behind, the young man ran very hard, but he seemed not adept at sports, already struggling to catch his breath after a few minutes.
Ji Zhiyuan stopped, and when Ruan Qing finally caught up, he grabbed Ruan Qing’s hand and ran together.
Ruan Qing didn’t refuse because he indeed struggled to keep up.
Moreover, being alone in such a situation would undoubtedly be a dead-end.
Several people directly ran into the teaching building where Ruan Qing had classes during the day.
Although the teaching building was pitch black, the lights could be turned on.
Considering that turning on the lights in only one classroom would attract attention, after entering the teaching building, the group would casually turn on the lights of any classroom they passed.
In no time, almost all the lights in the entire teaching building were turned on, dispersing the darkness and dispelling a hint of unease and fear.
The players finally breathed a sigh of relief, but their nerves remained tense.
There were quite a few players entering the game this time, which inexplicably made them feel uneasy.
Moreover, there were significant issues with this First University.
The First University at night seemed like a realm of ghosts, attracting numerous unknown and fearful entities. Not to mention the ghosts that already existed within the First University itself.
This was a paradise for ghosts and a hell for humans.
As expected, the First University was the ghost domain mentioned in the dungeon information related to the pen spirit.
It could be seen that the pen spirit had reached an extraordinary level of strength.
It’s important to note that not all ghosts were powerful enough to have their own ghost domain; that required reaching an extreme level of strength, making it their unique realm and world.
In their own ghost domain, the ghost was the only king.
If they were to encounter the pen spirit head-on, they probably wouldn’t be able to escape.
Ruan Qing’s stamina was really poor; even if someone was pulling him to run, he was already struggling to catch his breath.
After entering the classroom, he leaned against the wall, trying to calm his rapid heartbeat and breath caused by intense exercise.
After checking the surroundings and finding nothing unusual, several players returned to the classroom, only to find the young man with slightly open mouth, struggling to breathe. They were all stunned.
Most people would look disheveled after a hurried run, but not this young man.
His hair was scattered, with a few strands moistened by sweat on his cheeks, yet it didn’t make him look disheveled. Instead, it added a bit of messy beauty and a sense of fragility.
As if he was a beautiful and fragile porcelain, with a delicate beauty that, if touched, would break, making it hard to look away.
Under the gloomy gaze of Ji Zhiyuan, the three coughed awkwardly and, feeling uncomfortable, averted their eyes.
Although they were all intermediate-level players, Ji Zhiyuan always gave off a terrifying aura, making the three subconsciously afraid of him.
As if there would be dreadful consequences if they offended him.
Although this idea seemed unfounded and irrational, the three individuals had no intention of testing it out.
After all, they only had this one life, and once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.
Ruan Qing didn’t pay attention to the reactions of the others. After calming his breath, he took out his phone to check the time.
However, his phone was occupied by numerous missed calls, with almost a hundred missed call notifications.
Because he didn’t want to deal with Shen Yu’an’s calls, Ruan Qing had set his phone to silent, but he hadn’t expected so many calls.
Ruan Qing opened the calls and saw there were calls from Qiao Nuo, Qi Yunshen, Shen Yu’an, and even Gu Lin.
Each person had made quite a few calls, with Shen Yu’an having the most.
Since he couldn’t be reached by phone, several of them had resorted to sending text messages.
The number of unread messages was surprisingly high.
Qi Yunshen mainly asked where he had taken the things he was supposed to bring, suspecting that he had run away with his ID.
Shen Yu’an, on the other hand, was angry that he dared to escape, and most of the messages were threats, with the final one stating that he would come find him.
Ruan Qing ignored the messages from the two and continued scrolling down.
Gu Lin probably called out of roommate concern, making a phone call just to show support and not sending any text messages.
Qiao Nuo did the same, but unlike Gu Lin, Qiao Nuo made quite a few calls and even sent several text messages, not all at the same time.
6:00 PM.
[Hurry back, don’t wander outside at night.]
10:00 PM.
[What’s wrong? Do you think your life is too precious? Come back now.]
11:00 PM.
[Where are you? I’m coming to pick you up.]
12:00 AM.
[If you’re dying, call me.]
