Inside the ship, ghosts had already started raging, with many engaging in fights. The players dared not approach at all.
In this situation, the emotions of anger and unwillingness easily spread, and the riot kept spreading.
Fang Qi whispered, “The system is suggesting that we pacify the ghosts, or else all the ghosts on the ship will start fighting, and we won’t have anywhere to hide. Do you still remember the player who died because of a fight between two corpses?”
Pang Yang: “Your point makes sense, but how do we calm them down? How can a living person reassure the dead that death is okay?”
Wasn’t that asking for trouble?
As soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately pulled back by Ning Su.
A corpse was thrown over. Fortunately, he was pulled to the side, or he might have been hit.
When hit, no one knew if they would instinctively push away, meeting the criteria for initiating direct contact.
Pang Yang wiped some sweat and cursed in relief.
After he dodged, the corpse landed on the bed of the boy with the backpack, conveniently crushing his acceptance letter.
The usually good-tempered boy finally erupted, a dark aura slowly covering his face. He terrifyingly threw the corpse off the bed and joined the brawl.
“How did it come to this?” Fang Qi shouted while dodging.
There were around two hundred corpses on the ship, and at this point, most of them were directly or indirectly involved in the brawl, with a trend of further escalation.
Pang Yang: “Stop fighting, stop fighting!”
“Huh? Don’t hit me, I don’t... I really don’t want to fight!”
Ning Su: “...”
With so many corpses fighting, players found it really difficult to avoid. The ship was now in complete chaos, and players who initially didn’t take it seriously were panicking.
Ghost fights, players suffer.
Someone climbed to the upper bunk, but even the upper bunk wasn’t safe. These evolved corpses were exceptionally strong. With a casual throw, they could send another person flying to the upper bunk.
A player was instantly pressed onto the bed by a corpse, scared and sweating, not daring to breathe.
“Quick, to the storage room!” a player shouted.
Upon hearing this, Ning Su tugged at Ling Xiao’s clothes and swiftly pulled the two children towards the storage room.
Faster than anyone else.
“...”
Ling Xiao jumped from one bunk to another in just a few steps.
“...”
Why were you all running so proficiently?
Pang Yang wiped his face, pulled Fang Qi, and was about to run. Just as they were about to run, several corpses suddenly flew towards them.
Both of them hurriedly hid behind the beds.
“What the heck is going on?”
Pang Yang took a look and immediately understood what was happening.
For some reason, there were a particularly large number of corpses near the human pupa master and Gu Xinghua. The human pupa master was ruthless, intending to use weapons to crush the corpses directly, but was immediately stopped by Gu Xinghua.
“Vice-president, don’t kill them anymore! Whether doing good or bad, it’s related to them. If they see you killing corpses, we’ll be in trouble!”
In the past few days, other players realized that they needed to do good deeds. They then realized that doing good deeds wasn’t about randomly sending warmth to each other among the remaining players. It was about doing good deeds for these corpses.
Xue Wei and Gu Xinghua certainly realized it too.
Xue Wei endured and retracted the shuttle.
Of course, they couldn’t just be surrounded by so many corpses.
Xue Wei turned her head back, her wavy long hair fluttering behind her. Her fingers flipped and pressed down, revealing an intricately carved cylindrical weapon.
The weapon smashed heavily onto the ground, continuously growing in size. Countless heads flew out of the openings, resembling a tornado, throwing the surrounding corpses out one by one.
Especially aimed towards Pang Yang.
Watching Xue Wei’s blatant smile, Pang Yang gritted his teeth. “This woman is truly ruthless! She won’t let go of anyone from the Yinhua Guild!”
The corpses flew towards them, and they couldn’t actively block them. Initiating any action might fulfill the conditions for active contact.
It was also difficult to run past so many corpses to get to the storage room.
It’s difficult, but they had to give it a try!
Ning Su stood at the entrance of the storage room and shouted to them, “Don’t come over. Hide under the lower bunk!”
Pang Yang, who was about to move, immediately lit up and crawled under the bed.
Once under the lower bunk, the corpses couldn’t reach them, no matter how they attacked.
Why didn’t he think of it earlier?
It was indeed a clever move!
With a grin, Pang Yang slid under, and the space under the bed was just enough for one person, very secure.
When Pang Yang crawled under the bed, he saw that Fang Qi was still standing.
Not only was he standing, but he also walked from behind the bed to the front, directly facing the direction of the human pupa master.
Pang Yang froze and then anxiously shouted at him, “Fang Qi, what are you doing? Hurry, hide under the bed!”
His urgent shouts had no effect; Fang Qi not only stood there but even took a step forward, towards the human pupa master.
Pang Yang was completely bewildered.
Lying under the bed, he couldn’t see Fang Qi’s expression but could only see his feet staying in place, then stumbling forward. So he was completely unaware of what was happening to the other.
Poking his head out from under the bed, he saw a corpse flying towards them, “Fang Qi! Fang Qi! What the hell is happening to you! Wake up!”
If he didn’t just hide and kept walking in that direction, it would have been fine, but not knowing how to avoid the corpses coming over, Pang Yang felt like Fang Qi had been possessed.
He reached out to grab his ankle. “Wake up!”
Ning Su, standing at the entrance of the storage room, also noticed Fang Qi’s abnormality.
He only saw Fang Qi looking in the direction of the human pupa master from a distance, the shock the other had at that moment.
Then, Fang Qi took a step forward, blocked by the bed board, and he couldn’t see Fang Qi anymore.
Ning Su thought of Fang Qi’s expression of disbelief in that moment, and a terrifying conjecture suddenly crossed his mind.
The human pupa master turned over onto the bed, jumped from one bunk to another, holding the huge human pupa canister, swiftly rushing towards the storage room.
Ning Su glanced at her human pupa canister, took a few steps forward, and used the Heaven-Piercing Silk to wrap around Fang Qi, who was almost hit by a corpse, pulling him away in mid-air.
After the human pupa master and Gu Xinghua entered the storage room, they immediately tried to close the door.
Just as the door was halfway closed, a foot extended from the side, stepping on the door.
The person leaning against the wall, with long enough legs, effortlessly blocked the door that was about to close.
Gu Xinghua gripped the door handle with both hands and pulled hard, not even moving the hem of his deep gray pants.
Gu Xinghua paused for a moment, retracting his hand to glance at the casually leaning person against the wall.
Xue Wei also glanced at him.
That leg only retracted when Ning Su dragged Fang Qi over.
As soon as Fang Qi entered the storage room, his gaze fixed on Xue Wei’s human pupa canister.
He breathed slowly and heavily, reminiscent of Fang Qi in the Flower God Temple.
He was the first player to enter the Flower God Temple, the first to have the sacred flower transplanted into his body, and one of the players who suffered the longest in that dungeon.
But he never screamed in pain, never cried.
The most painful moments were when he breathed like this.
OH NOOO!!! Don't tell me he saw the head of the person he was looking for in that canister ðŸ˜
