In the elevator.

A nurse and a man without a skull.

They stood on either side of Jiang Che.

Their faces were expressionless, occasionally exchanging glances, but neither made any further moves.

Before long.

Jiang Che couldn't hold back any longer and asked the man without a skull.

"Hey, buddy, can I ask you something?"

The Brain-Damaged Ghost looked sinister: "Ask."

Jiang Che: "Can you wash your hair while doing a handstand?"

Brain-Damaged Ghost: "..."

Are you out of your mind?

"Ding~"

The elevator reached the -2 floor...

Outside, a man with only the upper half of his body was struggling to crawl on the ground.

"Help me, help me..."

The man cried out in pain, leaving a long trail of blood on the floor.

At this moment, Jiang Che suddenly reached out with both hands.

With a yank and a toss.

Splat~

The man with only the upper half of his body was pulled into the elevator.

Jiang Che clapped his hands and said, "No worries, no need to thank me."

"Hey, buddy, can I ask you something?"

"How do you go to the bathroom?"

Ghost Nurse: "..."

Brain-Damaged Ghost: "..."

Mutilated Ghost: "..."

The three uncanny beings looked at each other.

This guy must be seriously ill!

Today really opened my eyes...

"Ding~"

The elevator reached the -3 floor.

Jiang Che enthusiastically helped an old granny into the elevator.

The old granny was so excited she was drooling.

"Slurp~ Young man, thank you so much..."

"My old bones, old bones, old..."

The Pupilless Old Granny looked at the three uncanny beings behind Jiang Che.

Her wrinkled face froze completely in that moment.

Oh my, oh my, oh my...

Is it always this lively?

Jiang Che wasn't interested in the old granny, so he didn't ask anything.

The elevator continued to descend.

At this point, the nurse who had first come with Jiang Che couldn't hold back any longer.

The skin on her face began to peel off, revealing a faceless, bloody visage.

Just as she was about to make a move, the Brain-Damaged Ghost suddenly covered her mouth.

"He's mine!"

That one sentence stirred up a storm.

The Mutilated Ghost wasn't happy, roaring, "He pulled me in, clearly he's mine!"

Pupilless Old Granny: "But he helped me in!"

"I was here first!"

"I don't give a damn when you came!"

"Well, I do!"

As they argued, the four uncanny beings started fighting.

At this moment, the elevator reached the -4 floor.

Jiang Che, hands in his pockets, whistled nonchalantly as he left.

On the elevator's display screen appeared a ghastly ghost face, "Damn it, stop fighting! The guy's already run off!!!"

"%￥&￥#@#"

"%%Nmb%$@!"

Actually, from the moment the nurse got on.

A hint had appeared.

The gist was that the nurse was very hungry and wanted to eat him.

But because there was already an uncanny being in the elevator, she hadn't made a move.

The same hint appeared for the Brain-Damaged Ghost, Mutilated Ghost, and the old granny.

They seemed like wandering spirits, each forming their own faction, not getting along with each other.

Especially when encountering the Brain-Damaged Ghost, the nurse's reaction was quite bizarre.

And so, it led to this final scene.

Too many wolves, not enough meat, naturally they started fighting.

But speaking of which, even if they did make a move, Jiang Che wouldn't be afraid.

An F-grade giant scissors wasn't just for show; it was more than enough to deal with these guest-starring uncanny beings.

...

The -4 floor wasn't large; exiting the elevator and following the path, Jiang Che soon arrived at the morgue's entrance.

Pushing the door open, a bone-chilling coldness immediately rushed out.

Rows of corpse beds were neatly arranged.

Each bed had a corpse lying on it, covered with a white sheet.

Who knows which bed the Head Nurse was sleeping on.

Whether she wore clothes while sleeping...

Although curious, Jiang Che wasn't foolish enough to actually lift the sheet.

If he lifted it and the thing inside was staring back at him, that would be truly terrifying.

There were at least twenty or thirty corpses here.

At this moment, Jiang Che noticed a desk in the corner.

He walked over to check it out.

On the desk were several photos and a yellowed diary.

Jiang Che first looked at each photo.

Soon, a task prompt sounded in his ear.

"Challenge clue obtained—[Old Photos]."

"[Wail of the Bloody Night]: Completion progress 90%."

Then, Jiang Che began to flip through the diary.

As he gathered more information, the story he had speculated about became more complete.

Jiang Che couldn't help smacking his lips, marveling, "Who would've thought there'd be such an outrageous story behind a task."

Closing the diary, the task prompt sounded again.

"Challenge clue obtained—[Cannibalistic Words]."

"[Wail of the Bloody Night]: Completion progress 99%."

The progress didn't directly jump to 100%; it seemed intentional.

Stuck at 99%.

Just as Jiang Che was feeling puzzled, a piercing task prompt suddenly echoed in everyone's ears!

"Attention all challengers!"

"After dark, the murderer from fifty years ago will return to the inpatient building! At that time, he will start a new round of slaughter!"

"This Uncanny Trial has been temporarily changed to Nightmare Mode."

"Main task (Nightmare): Survive until 6 AM under the murderer's onslaught."

"Friendly reminder: Exit this scene as soon as possible."

Nightmare Mode?!

Jiang Che's expression immediately turned serious.

Temporary changes to Uncanny Trial tasks were extremely rare.

At the same time, such situations often resulted in the most casualties!

But, if one could complete Nightmare Mode, the rewards would be significantly enhanced!

Some lunatics roamed the Mystic World for a long time, just to trigger a Nightmare Mode once.

But most people didn't wish to encounter such an almost deadly change!

Because it not only meant their lives would be in great danger, but it often resulted in their completed tasks and progress being in vain!

I can't believe I encountered such a small probability.

Am I truly the chosen one?

At this moment.

Li Xiaoxiao and Jin Yudi, who were still cleaning, were stunned in place.

Their faces were as pale as paper, unable to accept it.

The murderer had returned and would start killing at night.

For them, it was absolutely deadly!

Meanwhile, Li Jiahao and Zhou Fu also wore expressions as if they had eaten something foul.

Such a one-in-a-million chance, and they encountered it?

Nightmare Mode!

Staying here any longer would be no different from waiting for death.

Even if they had no more chances to revive, even if given two more, it wouldn't be enough!

Damn it...

In addition to that.

Jiang Che's challenge task also changed.

Originally "Wail of the Bloody Night" became "The Final Redemption"...

At this moment.

A cold voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"What are you doing here?"

The Head Nurse appeared silently behind Jiang Che.

Her gaze.

Was like looking at a dead man...
