Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

"Brother Yun, don't worry about me, you go!"

Zhong Mo shouted, and immediately afterward, someone struck him hard in the stomach with the hilt of a knife.

"Be honest, you're about to die, what are you trying to prove by showing off your loyalty?"

Zhao Pengfei snorted coldly, but he didn't hear Zhong Mo's low murmur:

"What I said... was the truth..."

Zhong Mo kept his head down, and no one could see the fierce, majestic fire burning in his eyes...

"Don't touch him. We can discuss what you want."

Xiao Yun's expression was complex, and he sighed inwardly:

"I was careless; I underestimated these guys..."

I overestimated Zhao Pengfei's cunning and underestimated his strength.

Now, the only exit is blocked by Zhao Pengfei and his group, and the three of them are incredibly strong, with weapons that are not ordinary either.

In Zhao Pengfei's hand was a rough, serrated broadsword.

Beside him, his two roommates each held a gleaming samurai sword.

Xiao Yun frowned, muttering to himself:

"That shouldn't be the case. They definitely didn't have that knife originally. Either they got it from their daily settlement, or they found some treasure somewhere. But, one person is missing from their dormitory. How did they get this kind of weapon?"

Just as he was wondering, Xiao Yun suddenly noticed the bloodstains on Zhao Pengfei's broadsword.

Instantly, a chill rose from the soles of my feet and shot straight to the top of my head.

Xiao Yun's expression immediately turned grim, and he began to have some bad thoughts:

"Zhao Pengfei...you really dared to kill your classmate!"

"Oh? You actually figured it out?"

Zhao Pengfei exclaimed in surprise, then immediately let out a sneer:

"You bunch of newbies are so naive! You really think this is a survival simulation game?"

"Killing is the fastest way to become stronger!"

"Beast! Worse than a beast!"

Xiao Yun's face was ashen, and he almost roared as he questioned:

"Aren't you afraid of being found out and becoming public enemy number one?"

"Oh? I always target lone wolves, how would anyone know?"

Zhao Pengfei chuckled softly, looking at Xiao Yun:

"Do you really intend to tell everyone about this after you get out? Of course not!"

"I watched the four of you split up and made sure the other two went to the lake before I followed you here."

Zhao Pengfei's voice was cruel, yet full of confidence:

"No one can save you today, and none of you will escape!"

As Zhao Pengfei spoke, a card suddenly appeared in his hand, shimmering with a faint blood-red light in the darkness.

Snapped--

The next second, Zhao Pengfei crushed the card, and crimson light scattered outwards, then surged back into his body.

Xiao Yun's heart sank when he saw Zhao Pengfei's bloodshot eyes and his fierce aura.

"Starting with the second stage right away, that's so unsportsmanlike..."

How can you use such a powerful item right away?

Xiao Yun sighed inwardly, secretly marveling at the depth of Zhao Pengfei's hatred for him.

"Now, even using the [Emblem of Blood and Fire] might not be enough..."

Xiao Yun sighed inwardly. If Zhao Pengfei hadn't had that card earlier, he might have been able to fight back with his Blood Burning ability, but now it was completely impossible.

Using the [Emblem of Blood and Fire] will allow you to escape, but it will absolutely not save Zhong Mo.

Just as Xiao Yun was pondering, a soft laugh suddenly rang out.

Xiao Yun looked up and saw Zhong Mo's face.

And those golden vertical pupils...

"Brother Yun, let me give you a piece of my mind today!"

Zhong Mochong gave himself a silly smile, but Xiao Yun shuddered, feeling even more uncomfortable than when he was threatened by Zhao Pengfei.

His intuition told him that he couldn't let Zhong Mo continue like this.

The flames in Zhong Mo's eyes burned fiercely, his golden vertical pupils shone even brighter, and his honest face gradually became dignified and indifferent...

Something unfamiliar is awakening within him...

"etc!"

Xiao Yun shouted to stop him, and without hesitation, took off the backpack behind him and threw it out.

The backpack traced a graceful parabola through the air, and the Earth Origin Fruits inside flew out through the loosely closed opening, scattering all over the ground.

Zhao Pengfei and the others were stunned for a moment when they saw the fruit on the ground emitting a yellowish glow.

"What is this?"

The thought involuntarily arose in their minds, and at the same time, in the brief moment of their distraction...

A violent fire shot into the sky.

With my own blood, I will ignite an inextinguishable fire!

[The Poem of Blood and Fire], Fifth Tier, now activated!

[Ding! Strength +6, Agility +6!]

[Gained a negative status effect, reducing health by 21 every 5 seconds]

In just a moment, a large portion of his health bar was depleted.

But with the sudden surge in his attributes, Xiao Yun's leg muscles exerted force like springs, and his body flew out like a cannonball.

"not good!"

Zhao Pengfei's expression changed drastically. Seeing the silver blade that was already close at hand, he instinctively raised his weapon to defend himself.

The next second, as the broken blade of the mithril sword slashed past his eyes, Xiao Yun's face flashed across his vision.

But he still caught a glimpse of that mocking smile.

Xiao Yun's target wasn't him, but his brothers.

"Damn it!"

Zhao Pengfei's face contorted in rage as he roared furiously and raised his serrated broadsword without hesitation, bringing it down.

Although Xiao Yun's Blood Burning attribute surged, he also used the [Explosive Growth Card I], so even though there was a difference, it wasn't significant.

At such close range, if his brother were to entangle Xiao Yun for even a moment, he could kill him.

However, this is on the premise that Xiao Yun's goal is to kill other people.

"hehe……"

Xiao Yun chuckled lightly, and his broken sword slashed across the wrist of the man holding Zhong Mo hostage.

"what!"

The man exclaimed in surprise, felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and quickly released his grip.

He hurriedly looked down and realized that there were no marks on his wrist.

call--

Zhao Pengfei's serrated broadsword whipped up a gust of wind, fell in front of him, and crashed to the ground with a thud.

Only then did Zhao Pengfei and the other two seem to wake up from a dream and look at Xiao Yun, who had returned to his original spot.

Swimming Dragon

"Phew...the limit!"

Xiao Yun chuckled softly, and the crimson flames burning on his body slowly dissipated.

While he still had some energy left, Xiao Yun slapped Zhong Mo on the head.

"Ouch!"

Zhong Mo cried out in surprise, rubbing his head as the gold in his eyes slowly disappeared.

"I haven't even started yet, how dare you try to fight me?"

Xiao Yun snorted coldly, while Zhong Mo chuckled and scratched his head:

"Sorry, Brother Yun, I'll listen to you from now on. I'll do whatever it takes to fight for you."

Xiao Yun rolled her eyes helplessly and didn't continue the conversation.

He looked up and met the raging Zhao Pengfei's gaze.

"Good, good, good! You're very good!"

Zhao Pengfei's bloodshot eyes were practically spitting fire, and his face was terrifyingly ferocious.

It was originally a cat-and-mouse game he had designed, but he was just made a fool of!

"Your condition just now... the side effects must have been really severe, right? You can't use it anymore, can you?"

Zhao Pengfei sneered and pressed on relentlessly.

Although Xiao Yun successfully rescued Zhong Mo, he was still inside the cave, his own path blocked, and he had no chance of escaping.

"Fuck you, die!"

Zhao Pengfei roared, his serrated knife tearing through the air with a deathly wail.

Xiao Yun's pupils contracted, and he gritted his teeth, having no choice but to activate the [Poem of Blood and Fire] again.

Using his increased strength and agility, Xiao Yun, carrying Zhong Mo, narrowly escaped Zhao Pengfei's attack.

They headed straight into the depths of the cave.

"Fatty, tuck in your stomach, you can't fit any more in!"

"We've... reached our limit!"

Hearing Zhong Mo's hoarse voice, Zhao Pengfei paused for a moment, then let out a cold laugh.

He tilted his head to look at his brother beside him, pointed deep into the cave in the direction where the two had disappeared, and laughed disdainfully:

"There really are idiots out there! Running in like that is just asking for trouble!"

The two men beside him laughed and followed him into the depths of the cave.

"Hey kid, what are you doing here? Are you looking for a place with good feng shui... uh?"

Zhao Pengfei's laughter suddenly stopped.

"Smile, why aren't you smiling? Don't you like to smile?"

Xiao Yun fed the white snake a piece of roasted meat and patted its head casually.

"Come on, Xiaobai, say hello to my senior."

hiss--

The white snake shook its head, glanced at him unhappily, and then looked at Zhao Pengfei, who looked completely bewildered.

hiss--

It looks even less appetizing.
