The two people spoke in unison, leaving Qin Nuo a bit bewildered.

  All of Qin Nuo's previous specutions were shattered.

  The old ndlord exhaled a puff of smoke, seeing Qin Nuo remain silent, he thought he over the chess game.

  He flicked the ash off his cigarette, set the pipe aside, and said with a smile, "How about aname?"

  "This time, I'm full of fidence!"

  "Let's py ime, my stomach hurts a bit, I'll head back first."

  With that, Qin Nuo turned and ran off.

  The old ndlord chuckled, picked up his pipe, feeling quite smug, "Scared before even starting, these young folks..."

  Reag the fourth-floor corridor, Qin Nuo hesitated for a moment and knocked on the door of room 403.

  "What's the matter, child?" Little Yuan's Mom opehe door, her cold expression softened a bit upon seeing Qin Nuo.

  Qin Nuo asked her the same question he had asked the ndlord.

  Afterward, he knocked on the doors of rooms 405 and 406.

  He received the same answers from the Fat Homebody Ghost and Liu Ze.

  Returning to his room, Qin Nuo sat on the bed, crossed his hands, and fell into deep thought.

  All the answers were identical!

  Could it be like that saying oer, who would write their true thoughts in a diary, that's just foolish and lowly behavior?

  While p, there was a sudden kno the door.

  Qin Nuo got up to open it, and it rincess Yao Yao from the third floor.

  Princess Yao Yao looked at Qin Nuo, grinning and revealing her cute e teeth, holding a pile of snacks in her arms.

  "Judging by your stance, you have something to ask of me and pn to bribe me with snacks?" Qin Nuo voiced his guess.

  "No."

  "I ran out of money, spent it all on food, and after calg carefully, I realized I might not be able to pay rent for the five days. So I wao ask if I could sell these snacks to you?" Princess Yao Yao asked.

  Qin Nuo rolled his eyes, "I do junk food."

  "e on, be kind, you've pleted so many instaasks, you must have a lot of Ghost Currency, it's not a losing deal." Princess Yao Yao pleaded.

  Qin Nuo had accumuted quite a bit of Ghost Currency, but he wasn't like the Fat Homebody Ghost door, not falling for the cute act.

  If this girl could be his tool, he might sider it, but he didn't now.

  Qin Nuo generally didn't do losing deals.

  "My neighbor should be more than happy to help you." Qin Nuo poio room 405.

  Princess Yao Yao knew he was referring to the Fat Homebody Ghost, shivered, and shrank her neck, "He'll eat me alive."

  "No way, my buddy is the kio beauties, he'd gh fire and water for them." Qin Nuo ughed.

  "I'll go ask Sister Rose instead." Princess Yao Yao pouted, ready to leave with her snacks.

  But just as she turned around, a game annou suddenly echoed in her mind.

  Besides her, Qin Nuo also heard the voi his mind.

  "Attention all pyers, half of the game time has passed, the remaining time will switch to a new game mode."

  "The game mode will ge to a battle royale mode, the mai NPCs will actively hunt pyers."

  "Before being hunted, pyers identify the killer, but if they guess wrong, they will die instantly! Guess correctly, and the instance will be pleted, ending the game early."

  "Note: Uhe proteeism, pyers choose to exit the instaer being hunted once, making this instance void."

  "Being hunted a sed time will result in real-world death!"

  Battle royale mode?

  NPCs hunting pyers?!

  Qin Nuo and Princess Yao Yao were stunned.

  the game be pyed like this?

  "What do we do? It sounds terrifying." Princess Yao Yao said fearfully.

  "For you, ging to someorong is your only hope of survival." Qin Nuo said to Princess Yao Yao.

  " I g to you?"

  "Don't even think about it."

  Ign Princess Yao Yao's gaze, Qin Nuo analyzed, "Actually, there's o panic, there are still five days left in the game. If I were the killer, I wouldn't kill all the pyers in one day, that would be to."

  "And don't fet, we all have two lives. If the killer makes a move, we'll definitely know who it is, and after reviving, we identify them, ending the game."

  Princess Yao Yao suddenly realized, "Right, why didn't I think of that?"

  Qin Nuo smiled slightly, "So, this so-called battle royale mode is actually more advantageous for us pyers!"

  "Then whets killed first would be the first to know who the killer is?" Princess Yao Yao blinked.

  Does that mean they have to pete to be killed by the killer first?

  "Maybe." Qin Nuo didn't say much.

  The game instance isn't stupid.

  How could they not know such a simple loophole?

  He said it to make Princess Yao Yao be the nail that sticks out, to act as a tool.

  Bang!!

  Suddenly, a loud noise came from downstairs, Qin Nuo and Princess Yao Yao exged a gnd immediately rushed down.

  The sound came from the sed floor, and when Qin Nuo and Princess Yao Yao arrived, the other pyers had also gathered.

  The corridor was filled with dust.

  At the end of the corridor y a body.

  It was Bck Bear's.

  His head had rolled to the er of the wall...

  Everyone was stunned.

  The battle royale mode had started, and within two minutes, a pyer was already hunted!

  Everyone involuntarily held their breath.

  Qin Nuo was the first to react, suddenly asking, "Whi was Bck Bear in?"

  Everyone was initially stuhen quickly realized.

  Right!

  Bck Bear was killed, so he must have revived in his room.

  That guy must already know who the killer is!

  "Room 206!" Cobra said, taking the lead and running to the end of the corridor.

  The others quickly followed.

  When they reached room 202, sure enough, Bck Bear was sitting on the bed, looking dazed as if he had just rebooted.

  Then, remembering something, he jumped up in anger, "Damn! I got taken out just like that?!"

  Cobra walked rabbed Bck Bear's shoulders, and asked, "Who is the killer?"

  "You must have seen its appearance, right?"

  "I saw! I saw its appeara was..."

  Bck Bear nodded, opened his mouth, and the name was about to e out, "It was... it was, right, who was it?"

  Everyone eechless.

  Dude, are you seriously having amnesia at such a critical moment?

  Bck Bear held his head, trying hard to recall, but just couldn't remember who it was.

  Moreover, the more he tried, the more his head hurt.

  "Ah, I definitely know who it is, but why 't I remember?" Bck Bear said, pained.

  Everyone was more anxious than he was, tinuously pressing him for answers.

  Qin Nuo uood something and stepped forward to stop the questioning crowd.

  "There's o ask."

  "He 't possibly remember."

  "You're not him, how you be so sure?" Ja frowned.

  "Think about it, if you think of this loophole, wouldn't the System?"

  "The moment he was killed, part of his memory was likely erased by the System."

  Qin Nuo's words left everyone silent.

  Qin Nuo shook his head slightly.

  "Ihis battle royale mode isn't going to let you clear it so easily..."
