This scene was something even Xu Lang hadn't anticipated!

He never expected that the slight margin of error present in the simulated dream would manifest here!

Fortunately, his combat reflexes weren't weak. Without a second thought, he directly teleported away.

Xu Lang appeared on the guardrail, watching Azeman charge towards him. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and his expression turned pleasantly surprised.

"He's alive again, doesn't that mean I can squeeze him dry one more time?"

"A win-win situation!"

A win-win meant Xu Lang won twice.

Xu Lang's figure vanished in an instant, reappearing crouched on Azeman's shoulder. The Scarlet Herding Chains wrapped around the latter's neck as Xu Lang himself leaped off the building.

Azeman's massive four-meter-tall body was yanked into the air, his back slamming violently against the guardrail, his neck tightly bound by the Scarlet Herding Chains!

As everyone knows, if a BOSS has a second phase, it's usually stronger!

But the problem is, this Azeman had already been drained dry once, so his strength was actually much weaker than before.

Seeing Azeman get yanked away, the players were shocked, but they quickly grasped this logic.

Xu Lang clung to the eighth-floor exterior wall, his right hand exerting force as he stabbed one end of the Scarlet Herding Chains into the ceiling!

If Azeman could smash through walls, the chain's tip was certainly sharp enough too!

After doing this, Xu Lang flipped back onto the floor and saw Wang Yazhi and the other women about to attack Azeman.

"Stop!" Xu Lang hurriedly stopped them, saying, "You just keep covering me. It'd be best if you go find the person who spoke up earlier."

Cao Yaxuan and the others halted their movements and nodded.

Wang Yazhi's eyes were calm and sharp. Although she wanted to show off her strength, she could keep her cool at this moment.

A little over a minute later, Azeman was completely dead, the Scarlet Herding Chains coiling back with a drop of blood.

Simultaneously, Azeman's loot appeared: a giant Spiked Club and a set of armor.

Both the main weapon and main equipment dropped. The drop rate this time was good, and there were also the two items squeezed out by the Scarlet Herding Chains. A huge profit.

"Xu Lang, can I have this corpse?" Luo Lin walked over, her eyes fixed on Azeman's body.

Generally, after a monster drops loot, its corpse rapidly disappears. Quick storage into the backpack can prevent this, but such corpses are usually just empty shells, unusable by ordinary people.

"Take it." Xu Lang nodded, seeing Tao Tao standing beside Luo Lin. He glanced around and noticed many female players from the tenth floor had come down, standing guard on the outermost perimeter.

Players on the tenth floor, due to lower survival pressure, had a stronger willingness and culture of cooperation. Their positioning showed training too—overall, Wu Huihui managed things well.

Right now, because Xu Lang killed Azeman, the tenth-floor players were very happy.

As long as Xu Lang was here, they faced no risk of monsters breaking their doors, and their harvest each round was also substantial.

Suddenly, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he looked at Cao Yaxuan. "Any leads?"

"Nothing reliable yet." Cao Yaxuan shook her head.

Xu Lang's brow furrowed deeply.

What most people didn't know was that retaliation wasn't an impulsive act, but rather a rational behavior accumulated at a genetic level.

If you couldn't retaliate, couldn't attack enemies, then even if you were a giant, you'd be gnawed to the bone!

If you couldn't retaliate, others could hurt you the same way once, twice, three times, countless times!

Xu Lang had also considered using his Sixth Sense to test, but there were too many people who both feared and held malice towards him.

Should he just kill them all?

Just as he thought this, the door to Dorm 170 opened, and a gothic-dressed loli walked out.

It was the loli baby!

Players with a preference for younger characters felt their eyes light up, their specific tastes deeply satisfied!

Even many who didn't fancy this type firmly locked their gaze on her.

This Pandora's Charm wasn't low, reaching a level comparable to Wang Yazhi's.

"This is your payment." Pandora tossed a pendant to Xu Lang.

Xu Lang casually caught it, his gaze fixed on Pandora. This woman coming out personally likely meant there were other matters; otherwise, a simple trade would suffice.

Sure enough, Pandora's sparkling starry eyes stared at Xu Lang, her long eyelashes fluttering as she said, "Do you want to become my Tenant?"

The surrounding players wondered if they'd misheard. She actually wanted to take Xu Lang as a Tenant? Didn't she know he was a Five-Time Champion?

But some players maintained a serious attitude towards Pandora's words.

These players were all relatively new residents of the Mad King Building.

"Pandora is a twelve-cycle Veteran Player, and daring to say this, she definitely has some confidence!"

The credibility of a fanciful statement was completely different when uttered by an ordinary person versus a powerhouse.

At least in many people's eyes, Pandora was genuinely stronger than Xu Lang.

The face of a Dorm Survival Game player wasn't their skills or equipment, but their dorm. In terms of Turret count and dorm level, Pandora was higher than Xu Lang, only lacking two Guardian Spirits.

Besides that, Pandora's air of mystery was no less than Xu Lang's.

"I'm different from those Slacker players. I've achieved Top Player twice. In twelve rounds of the game, not once have I fallen below tenth place." Pandora's amethyst eyes stared at Xu Lang, stating it lightly.

Some players immediately held their breath.

They knew Pandora's dorm was a level ten or above dorm!

Although the Mad King Building already had many twelve-cycle Veteran Players, none possessed a level ten dorm!

However, hearing this, Xu Lang found it dull.

Because Xu Ruyan had seemingly said similar things before.

"Only achieved Top Player twice? I think that's average." Xu Lang replied flatly.

Pandora's flat chest hitched, visibly heaving once, as she said, "Don't think I called you here because I couldn't handle Azeman! I just didn't want to lose too much Turret Durability!"

"Xu Lang, don't listen to her. She's just a shut-in, holed up in her room, doesn't even dare step outside." Cao Yaxuan whispered in Xu Lang's ear. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Pandora gritted her silver teeth, shouting sharply, "I'm sharing information with you! Young man, see what a true High-Level Player is!"

Xu Lang and the others received an information share.

[Magic Mirror]

[Type: Turret Facility · Special]

[Level: 10]

[Rarity: Rare]

"All my Turrets are of Rare grade, and this Magic Mirror is one in ten thousand, a Rare grade!" Pandora crossed her arms, seeming very proud. "Although the monster levels in the dorm building I stayed in before wouldn't exceed the building's level, the monster quality and item quality were surprisingly high!"

After saying this, she offered no further explanation. Those who understood, understood.

Some knowledgeable players sucked in a cold breath.

"Hiss~ Pandora's previous dorm building was a premium building! No wonder she has so many good things!"

"No wonder Pandora is so strong, controlling all ninth-floor players without even leaving her room. She must have used some items brought from that premium building!"

"What's a premium building?"

"It's a dorm building with exceptionally good resources. A single beacon from such a building sells for nearly ten thousand Copper Coins!"

"What's a beacon?"

"... Bro, are you a pure newbie? Didn't your Dorm Owner vet you when you joined? A beacon is an item used during dorm migration to go to a specified dorm building, but this thing can't be used in the Mad King Building!"

"What—"

"Ask again and I'll have the Dorm Owner kick you out!"

Pandora listened to the surrounding discussion and snorted displeased.

She only had a pleasant expression for people she was interested in. Any sound from others was classified as noise.

The volume in the entire area was suppressed as she stared at Xu Lang and said:

"In my opinion, this endurance-type round isn't that simple!"

"You only have seven Turret slots total. You won't last!"

"You're currently relying on that Split Turret to hold on, but it can't handle every situation. I'll ask you one more time, do you want to become my Tenant!"

The olive branch was shoved right to his lips!

Unfortunately, Xu Lang didn't like olive branches. If it were swapped for... He glanced at Pandora's black-stockinged little feet, shaking his head inwardly.

Pandora, with such a good dorm, definitely wouldn't be willing to become his Tenant unless her door was broken by monsters.

Mad King Building, show some strength!
