After the Glutton awoke, its body became even larger!

It wasn't that noticeable when it was lying down before.

This looks like the rhythm of evolution. An Eighth-Level Glutton is terrifying enough; once it evolves to the Ninth Level or some other form...

Thinking this, Kui Zi's breathing immediately hitched.

The two players, hearing Kui Zi speak, paused their actions for a moment.

"Woo-wah! Woo-wah!"

The Glutton slapped its big belly, its small eyes gleaming with ferocity.

If it can't have a full meal every time, then it doesn't mind having one big feast!

The two players felt a chill run down their spines and hurriedly continued to feed it.

The food was quickly all fed.

However, this time, the Glutton didn't fall asleep after eating its fill. Instead, it continued to slap its belly, its beady eyes fixed unblinkingly on the two players!

...

Xu Lang fought his way down from above, arriving at the second floor.

At this moment, very few residents remained on the second floor.

And this was only because other players had invested in potential stocks like Zhao Liang and Zhang Dahai; otherwise, they would have been finished too.

The Headless Knight was too strong.

Even a Sixth-Level door couldn't withstand a few spear thrusts, and its speed was incredibly fast to boot!

Seeing a player descending from upstairs, the black warhorse instantly turned, doubled back mid-course, and leaped over the obstacles set up by the players!

The Headless Knight leaned forward, its spear poised for a thrust.

From within the corridor, a bloody figure charged out!

The Headless Knight's armor trembled and hummed, as if chuckling in a low growl!

With a dozen or so meters between them, Xu Lang suddenly leaped into the air, flying towards it.

Zhao Liang opened his door, saw the warhorse's swishing tail, and also saw Xu Lang soaring through the air!

In that split second, the Headless Knight raised its spear forward, clashing with the Cleaver in Xu Lang's hand.

The Cleaver slid down along the spear shaft, delivering a slash directly onto the Headless Knight's breastplate!

The warhorse dragged the Headless Knight a long distance away. Its rider on its back crashed to the ground, falling off the horse.

This scene stunned everyone present!

The Headless Knight was absolutely not a magic-type BOSS; on the contrary, its defense was extremely strong!

Such a BOSS was actually killed with a single slash!

"How is this possible?!"

Zhao Liang stood frozen in place, looking at Xu Lang who had turned to glance at the warhorse, his back facing him, then looking at that blood-tinged, sinister Cleaver. He suddenly shivered, as if that slash had cut him instead.

The warhorse let out a mournful whinny, continued its charge, opened its large mouth as if to bite Xu Lang in a big gulp, fast as a black lightning bolt.

Within his Sixth Sense, the warhorse was weeping in sorrow.

"Truly a fine horse."

In that fleeting moment, the instant life and death were decided, Xu Lang turned sideways, holding the blade horizontally to block!

The warhorse split apart from its chest, shattered bones and severed limbs spraying across the corridor, like a bloody painting from hell.

Xu Lang had originally intended to behead the horse, but felt it was a bit troublesome, so he slacked off a little.

That's how modern youth are—if they can charge their phone while lying sideways, they absolutely won't bother moving the charger.

The Headless Knight's death was too clean, too abrupt.

All the players were stunned on the spot, unsure if they were lamenting not getting to leech points or being shocked by Xu Lang's monstrous growth.

Clearly, Xu Lang wasn't this strong before.

"I am not his match!"

In the crowd, Zhai Ren clenched his fists tightly, his heart unable to calm down.

He had transferred dorms to break through and obtain the Top Player title.

Yet, after arriving here, he saw no hope of obtaining the Top Player title.

He took a deep breath and headed towards the first floor without a word.

"Truly admirable," Li Shuwen sighed in admiration.

Li Wenwen, though not strong in combat, was also by Li Shuwen's side.

He couldn't rest easy leaving his precious daughter in the dorm room.

What if Li Wenwen was tricked by someone and opened the door?

However, his daughter was already an adult, not a child.

Li Wenwen gazed at Xu Lang, feeling her face grow hot, her heart fluttering with infatuation.

So handsome, so strong, and with so many women—a playful, charming heartbreaker!

Every trait is a trump card!

Sometimes, the danger a man carries can be incredibly attractive!

Women often have this thought—I don't want what others don't want; what everyone is fighting for must be good!

...

Xu Lang lowered his gaze to look at the Cleaver.

An Eighth-Level weapon, its base stats were solid. Paired with the Blood Soul enhancement, it gave a feeling of invincibility.

[Sequence Ability 3 (Killing Karma): For every living being slain, that being's killing karma is converted into the Blood Soul's sharpness. Current increase: 300 Sharpness]

Of these three hundred points of sharpness, one hundred were provided by the Butcher.

One could only say, the legacy left by the old-timer was quite rich.

The warhorse's drop was a heart, belonging to the ingredient type. If cooked well, it could increase a player's attributes.

The Headless Knight's drop was simpler: a set of battle armor with five components—gloves, arm guards, leg guards, war boots, and a breastplate.

Xu Lang didn't linger. After drinking a functional beverage, he headed to the first floor.

...

First floor.

When Zhai Ren came down, he saw Kui Zi and her group "walking the ghost."

The Glutton was very tanky and had strong output; its only shortcoming was its short legs.

"Don't come over," Kui Zi glanced back at Zhai Ren and said coldly.

Zhai Ren, a former soldier, had strong observational skills. He wasn't swayed by Kui Zi's words, nor did he rashly step forward.

After observing for a while and noticing the Glutton's condition had deteriorated significantly, he rubbed his wrists, preparing to step forward and snatch the kill.

"Stop him!" Kui Zi shouted in a low voice, charging towards the Glutton.

Su Yuan and the other first-floor players immediately turned to block Zhai Ren.

The first-floor players had paid a great price to wear the Glutton down to this state; they absolutely couldn't give up so easily!

"Tch~ Scram if you don't want to die!" Zhai Ren sneered, about to stride forward, when his steps suddenly halted.

Su Yuan and the others found it strange. Was this reckless brute not going to act?

It wasn't that he wasn't going to act, but there was no need to act anymore.

Xu Lang had already appeared in the first-floor corridor!

Kui Zi's corridor was on the left, Xu Lang's corridor was on the right, and the Glutton was in the middle of the corridor.

Both players were charging towards the Glutton!

Taking a deep breath, Kui Zi's speed suddenly exploded. A metallic sheen covered her wrist, her sharp pupils constricted, reflecting the Glutton's terrifying form.

The next second.

A black shadow leaped over the Glutton, darting right in front of her, holding a blood-red Cleaver.

Kui Zi narrowed her eyes and threw a punch at the Cleaver.

This was suicide!

Bang!

At the critical moment, Xu Lang kicked out, his foot squarely hitting Kui Zi's abdomen, sending her flying over ten meters away!

Kui Zi spat blood, her fierce gaze fixed on Xu Lang as if asking why.

Why not attack the Glutton?!

Given the Glutton's current state, Xu Lang should be able to kill it with one strike!

The Glutton didn't care about all these human complexities. It opened its big mouth wide, intending to swallow Xu Lang whole.

Snap~

Without even turning his head, Xu Lang raised his hand and snapped his fingers, his Spiritual Energy surging forth in response.

A ring of fire materialized out of thin air. The Glutton plunged headfirst into it and emerged from another ring of fire ten meters away.

"SO COOL!!!" Cao Yaxuan jumped up, shouting loudly.

In that instant, who knows how many young ladies' hearts fluttered wildly.

Xu Lang really wasn't trying to show off; he just snapped his fingers subconsciously.

Can't be helped. When you're this handsome, even taking a shit is art.

"Hurry, catch him!"

"Fat bear, don't even think about running!"

Xu Ruyan threw out a landing net, ensnaring the Glutton.

A group of Ghost Pets also pounced forward like tigers and wolves, pinning the Glutton down.

The Glutton blinked its small eyes in confusion, actually looking somewhat endearingly silly.

At this, Kui Zi's gaze grew even more puzzled.

The other players were also filled with confusion.

If you're not killing it, are you keeping it for the New Year?
