Would his head really become pointy if he used it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had asked Cao Yaxuan and the others before; the item descriptions each person saw were actually slightly different. Besides the fixed information, part of it came from the observer's subjective consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should be fine!\" Xu Lang thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Lang, you killed that zombie?\" Cao Yaxuan swallowed hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Lang had been too fast, so fast that they hadn't seen many details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still worthy of praise was that even in such a sudden situation, neither woman had screamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five days of the survival game had taught all players to keep their mouths shut!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guaranteed genuine.\" Xu Lang holstered the Colt and flashed a bright smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been a long time since Cao Yaxuan had seen such a cheerful smile from Xu Lang. She couldn't help but pause, then nodded with a blush: \"As long as you're happy... You're now ranked second on the points leaderboard. Winning the game will give you great rewards.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dormitory broadcast had mentioned something about the top ten being able to upgrade their dorms, and she felt a faint sense of anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's focus on surviving first,\" Xu Lang said with a light laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Lang, what's this?\" Tong Qi pointed at the blue serum in Xu Lang's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dropped by the Cat Demon.\" As he spoke, Xu Lang picked up the serum and injected it directly into his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slight pain pricked his arm, followed by waves of coolness spreading through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This vial of serum looked very precious. Upgrading it with Nightmare Coins might yield excellent effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even if Xu Lang had Nightmare Coins later, he would only use them to upgrade the Nightmare Cot or the main door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding back to save up for upgrading the Gene Optimization Serum wasn't a wise choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If others snowballed their economy, you simply couldn't win. Rather than enjoying power later, better to enjoy the advantage all the way!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, while Xu Lang's physique showed no visible change, he could clearly feel an increase in strength, and his posture even straightened more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Lang, are you going out?\" Cao Yaxuan's heart tightened, suddenly struck by a strong intuition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Xu Lang was leaving!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not in a hurry.\" Xu Lang shook his head, his expression calm as he casually put on Cao Yaxuan's baseball cap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just one step away from reaching the top of the leaderboard. There was no reason not to fight for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Tong Qi pressed her lips together, suppressing her urge to dissuade Xu Lang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a time like this, the man had already made his decision, so she didn't want to speak up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, she felt Xu Lang's judgment was better than hers. She just needed to support him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Lang...\" Cao Yaxuan opened her mouth, a note of pleading in her voice, \"Can't you stay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\" Xu Lang shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he holed up in the room, no one could drag him out; if he decided to go out, no one could pull him back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone had to pay the price for their choices, and he was willing to take this risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The danger of the Dorm Survival Game had exceeded his expectations, putting him on high alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Operating in this game was like sailing against the current: you either advanced or fell behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If an opportunity presented itself and he didn't take it, that wouldn't be playing safe—it would be being a turtle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Lang did a couple of light jumps on the spot, loosening up his body, then stood waiting behind the door, pistol in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several minutes passed, and finally, the opportunity arrived!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Large Zombie had reached the tenth floor. Screams echoed in the corridor, and players were giving warnings in the chat room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, the longer the person being hunted survived, the longer he himself could survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though, it was slightly unfortunate that the player being chased was smashed to death by the Large Zombie shortly after reaching the tenth floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, the Large Zombie started bashing on a door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dorm number was 186—Wu Huihui's room!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Wu, what should we do?\" Wang Tingting was panicking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be afraid. Use the iron materials to reinforce it first.\" Wu Huihui held the iron materials, ready to repair the Iron Door the moment its Durability dropped slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of light, and the iron materials in her hand vanished—truly miraculous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't just stand there. Go ask other players to lend us some iron materials,\" Wu Huihui said gravely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound was her vocal cords vibrating through fat, but in this situation, it carried a certain authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right!\" Wang Tingting snapped out of it and hurriedly started calling out in the chat room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were only the two of them in the room now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their other roommate had ironically met her end thanks to a blessing turning into a curse, dying during the Large Zombie's pursuit. If she hadn't asked Wu Huihui for the immunity potion, she wouldn't have gone along this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to their previously accumulated reputation, players gradually sent Wang Tingting some iron materials, but it was a drop in the bucket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Large Zombie kept ramming the door, the sound like a tolling funeral bell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why is it only targeting us!\" Wang Tingting felt despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were out of iron materials now. All they could do was watch the door's Durability slowly decrease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Huihui, holding a weapon, didn't dare stay right behind the door anymore. She stood further back, sweat beading on her forehead as she stared fixedly at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Large Zombie slammed into it again violently. The door cracked slightly, and through the gap, Wu Huihui could even see the terrifying figure of the zombie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Tingting trembled like a leaf in a storm, but she gritted her teeth hard, planning to dart past the Large Zombie the moment it burst in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Hui, let's run in separate directions when the time comes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both sisters were terrified, but there was no other way. The only path before them now was to seek life through facing death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Large Zombie gathered its strength, its body lunging forward for a massive impact. But midway, it suddenly staggered, and the already precarious door wasn't smashed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, that loud BANG hadn't been the sound of the door being hit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, a rapid series of banging sounds erupted continuously, leaving the two women in the room utterly bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's happening?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women looked at each other, completely baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Lang stepped forward, bent down, and picked up the item dropped by the Large Zombie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an exquisitely designed card, with a ferocious, snarling zombie depicted in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't examine it closely, quickly pocketing it before darting swiftly towards the stairwell entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The area below the dormitory building was pitch black, with only the occasional street lamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from that, there was no sound, nor did anyone dare make a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Lang moved swiftly all the way and soon reached the entrance of the gymnasium, where he saw the corpse of the Crawling Monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he also saw an old acquaintance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other people had the same idea as Xu Lang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Lang!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Tao picked up the item dropped by the Crawling Monster, narrowed his eyes slightly, and upon confirming Xu Lang's identity, couldn't contain his wild joy:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've got some nerve, kid, daring to come out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take me to your room now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, wait! Hand over the room ownership rights immediately!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he directly pulled a hockey stick from his backpack, preparing to viciously swing it at Xu Lang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xu Lang had made him so ecstatic that his words lost all logic. His voice was frenzied, like the low growl of a wild dog.\u003C\u002Fp>",1442,"2026-06-05T14:17:38.436Z",1,"novelbin.me","f02ceef56f1beac167a2ed8e54377bcf1327c012c187024a8d124213d2c35728","fierce-horror-dorm-take-a-concubine-to-get-stron-chapter-23","fierce-horror-dorm-take-a-concubine-to-get-stron-chapter-21",481,null]
