the announcement he heard when entering the Newbie Apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a standard, emotionless mechanical voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So at first, he thought the voice had no owner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought it was just because he was a “Chosen One” and had been given a “mission” that normal players didn’t have, so he could hear a personal announcement no one else could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until later events that he realized—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That so-called “Chosen One” announcement he heard was most likely forged by the Apartment Boss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Zhou Qiming used the word “most likely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was just a pawn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the forged announcement theory he deduced—Jiang Ye had actually experienced something similar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, the 1010 Administrator had faked their own death just to avoid Jiang Ye’s sharp edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, it’s not impossible that those in power used false announcements to mislead players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, only two people were capable of forging an announcement for Zhou Qiming—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either the Administrator of Apartment 4444 at the time;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or someone even higher up, the Apartment Boss of the entire A-Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the “Mission Quest” in the forged announcement involved deceiving the 4444 Administrator,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qiming naturally assumed the announcement was faked by someone above the 4444 Administrator—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Apartment Boss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the contents of the forged announcement—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qiming’s first “Mission Quest” was to leave the coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, get out of that sealed coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Zhou Qiming, who had been trapped in that coffin for who knows how long, it was like a drowning man grabbing a lifeline!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was even so overjoyed that he doubted whether the announcement was just his imagination…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as for actually leaving the coffin, he didn’t need to do anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time, he was released by the 4444 Administrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew nothing about his current situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But under the guidance of the “Mission Quest,” he pretended to be a Reincarnated Player who had already experienced the Newbie Apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, he had some gaming experience, plus detailed prompts from the “Mission Quest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, following the quest instructions to the letter—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the moment he left the coffin, he began building a trust relationship with the 4444 Administrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, leveraging that trust, he gained quite a few benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most significant of which, naturally, was something Jiang Ye was also very familiar with—Resurrection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the resurrection process wasn’t complicated either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 4444 Administrator bound a “Survival Stone” to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, one of those red and green stones Jiang Ye dug up in the Reincarnation Graveyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, those were Survival Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bound Survival Stone was tossed into an empty coffin and buried in the graveyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Zhou Qiming no longer feared death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he welcomed it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because as long as he died, he would resurrect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And each resurrection made him stronger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During that time, he frequently visited the publicly known underground graveyard of Apartment 4444.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was then that he unearthed a group of followers, including Ge Ge, who had all resurrected from coffins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If everything had gone smoothly, people like Yang Wenchao and Wan Xin should’ve been dug up by Zhou Qiming too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, Zhou Qiming had more “Mission Quests” to complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After growing rapidly with help from the 4444 Administrator, he soon received his second “Mission Quest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though most of the benefits he’d gained came from the 4444 Administrator,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That forged announcement he heard before leaving the coffin had already planted deep trust in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, he had killed the 4444 Administrator in the game before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So instinctively, when choosing between the 4444 Administrator and the “Mission Quest,” he leaned toward the quest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, behind the Administrator’s back, he carried out the second “Mission Quest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that second “Mission Quest”…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye could probably guess—it was related to Yu Hu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, when Zhou Qiming first got the quest, he had no idea what “Yu Hu” was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply followed the prompt and found a unique space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hidden room, where Yu Hu was located.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, he found a crystal-clear jade pot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Yu Hu the Eerie Being also looked like a jade pot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the base of the pot, the character “Lin” was engraved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until later that Zhou Qiming realized—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That jade pot wasn’t just any wild eerie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was more like a small eerie that had been deliberately raised by an Eerie Nurturer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eeries like that carried less risk when invading a player, and had a higher chance of triggering a Glyph Pattern Ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, with ease, he obtained the Glyph Pattern Ability brought by Yu Hu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the jade pot itself, he didn’t care in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he had no idea how important eerie beings could be to certain players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he knew was that the new “Mission Quest” felt like a cheat code the God of Fate had written just for him, the “Chosen One.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the Glyph Pattern Ability Yu Hu gave him could be paired with death and resurrection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So once he had that ability, he became even more eager to die!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because after dying, not only could he use the Survival Stone the 4444 Administrator provided to resurrect,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could also become permanently immune to whatever killed him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he had a chance of copying the fatal ability and using it himself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This effect even worked inside the Virtual Duel Space!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in the Quick Battle against Lin Jing—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as Lin Jing killed him once, he would become completely immune to that killing method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter when he encountered it again, it would never kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Glyph Pattern Ability was insanely strong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even at just Tier 1, it was already that powerful…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was terrifying to imagine what would happen if it advanced further. The odds of copying fatal abilities after death might reach 100%!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Zhou Qiming was ecstatic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He genuinely believed he was the Chosen One with all the cheats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the other players in the Newbie Apartment were nothing but supporting characters in his glorious life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, his arrogance was off the charts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So much so that he failed to notice—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At some point, the 4444 Administrator’s attitude toward him had subtly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until later, when Apartment 0000 was opened ahead of schedule, and a Light-type Player suddenly appeared…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 4444 Administrator’s attitude grew more irritable and gloomy by the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the danger, Zhou Qiming was even a little afraid to return to Apartment 4444 and face the Administrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He always felt that, if it weren’t for the restriction preventing Administrators from killing players…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator might have already killed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qiming had confessed all this so far, and the Mask of Deceit on his face hadn’t fallen off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to continue—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Ye’s Administrator Replica suddenly interrupted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“According to the Mask of Deceit, you haven’t lied.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But there are two fairly important details that you seem to have intentionally left out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, let me remind you—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First, in the game, I won’t blame you for not knowing more because of your coffin-bound, death-locked perspective.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you seem to have overlooked something critical—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the game, the 4444 Administrator should’ve possessed a Death-State, just like I do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So how did your team manage to kill him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t tell me you were secretly a Light-type Player in the game?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second, you said you heard a ‘Mission Quest’ from within the coffin, and based on that, you established trust with the 4444 Administrator after coming out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then here’s the question—why would the 4444 Administrator trust you? Why would he go so far as to invest a Survival Stone in you and help you grow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just because you said you were a Reincarnated Player? That reasoning doesn’t quite hold up, does it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“……”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Zhou Qiming hadn’t lied at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had deliberately concealed some facts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Jiang Ye had called them out directly, there was no way for him to continue dodging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment of thought, Zhou Qiming sighed lightly, then suddenly asked the Administrator Replica:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That madwoman… she’s probably a member of the Defenders’ Alliance, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Administrator Replica nodded. That much was already beyond doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qiming was silent for a while, then suddenly looked up into the Administrator’s eyes and said meaningfully:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, in the game, I didn’t kill the 4444 Administrator under orders from the Apartment Boss.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was because I was given a Light-type Item by a player from the Defenders’ Alliance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, you heard that right. That legendary Light-type Item, which supposedly doesn’t exist, is real!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s just that Dark-type Players can’t use Light-type Items.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So the team I built at the time was composed entirely of Non-Dark Players.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My game account back then didn’t have a Light-type Ability, but with my identity as a Non-Dark Player and the help of a Light-type Item, I easily took down the 4444 Administrator.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be precise—I purified him…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the teammate who later killed me under the Kill-on-Sight Order, I still don’t understand how he one-shot me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But what I’m sure of is—he would’ve killed me even without the Kill-on-Sight Order.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That guy must have secrets too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe he’s backed by the Defenders’ Alliance? Or supported by the Apartment Boss? Or maybe someone else entirely—who knows?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyway, it was a case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I was the mantis, he was the oriole.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After I died and was put back into the coffin, I had no access to outside information. So that’s all I know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That so-called “that’s all” actually meant—he had just revealed the existence of Light-type Items!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye was a bit surprised, though not entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, not long ago, among the items Lin Ling let him choose from, there was, in a sense, a Light-type Item—Xiaoyao Dao Stone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Lin Ling, injecting Light Blaze into the Xiaoyao Dao Stone would allow the player to gain an effect similar to Light and Shadow Escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An effect similar to Light and Shadow Escape…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t that be considered a Light-type Item?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now, one thing could be confirmed—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the entire Doomsday Apartment, Light-type Items do exist!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The idea that they don’t exist is just a wishful assumption by Dark-type Players!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like how Dark-type Players still think all the Light-types are extinct…\u003C\u002Fp>",1740,"2026-06-03T07:17:36.055Z","2026-06-03T07:17:41.424Z",1,"novelbin.me","430f00e3b6fc2fa40ed7275b82bbd6d100ce9df0c374a7a0fcfe5b3a6095a6fe","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-212","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-210",575,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsurviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-cover.jpg"]
