There were originally two families living on the fifth floor of Chen Yue's house. Their shoe cabinets, flower pots and other sundries filled the corridor. The property management had come to their door many times, but they still did their own thing.

Although the residential building is messy, it should be full of life, not like it is now, weird and strange as if it is in a science fiction world.

All the debris in the corridor on the fifth floor disappeared, and in its place was a giant, slowly rotating pit.

Qu Anran had an unpleasant look on his face. He pulled Zhang Chunliang's sleeve and wanted to retreat to the fourth floor, but when he turned around, he found that the stairs they had come from were nowhere to be found behind him.

Several people were standing on a cement platform that was only one square meter in size, surrounded by a terrifying deep pit with no boundaries. If they took a wrong step, they would fall into it and there would be no way out.

"In fact, Chen Dahai is the protagonist, right?" Qu Anran panted, with a tone of incredulity in his voice, "Otherwise it is hard to explain why he is... so strong. Isn't he too strong and exaggerated?"

Zhang Chunliang pulled the corner of his mouth. He knew Chen Dahai's current situation very well - Chen Dahai was the "virus" NPC selected by the system to invade this S-level world. With the help of Game House, he didn't know how much world energy he had devoured. It was not impossible for him to become what he is now.

"It's not like we don't have a chance." Zhang Chunliang said, "He has allocated most of his strength to the small bosses on the first few floors. He wants to use this method to consume our combat power. Now is the time when this guy is at his most vulnerable. We should take advantage of him to kill him."

"I understand the truth, but - how should I get through this?" Qu Anran murmured.

The huge pit in front of us looked like a vast galaxy in the universe, emitting a brilliant and strange fluorescence. No one could see what was at the bottom, as if there was no end.

In the middle of the pit, there is a gray stone staircase hanging in the air. There are twelve steps in total. It appears there abruptly, as if it is some kind of hint.

"We have to find a way to jump to the middle of the pit - that staircase must lead to the sixth floor!" said Zhang Chunliang.

Suddenly, some strange roars were faintly heard from the huge pit beneath them.

"What is that..." Qu Anran screamed wildly, "So many ants!"

I saw countless black spots appearing on the edge of the pit from far to near. They moved quickly and agilely, following the guidance of the fluorescent light and climbing up to the top of the pit.

"They're not ants." Zhang Chunliang couldn't hold it in any longer. "They're people! There are so many people!!"

They could already clearly see the appearance of the fastest-moving group of weirdos, including a gray-haired old woman with a cane, young children, students in school uniforms, and middle-aged office workers with tired faces.

Everyone had a blank expression on their faces, but their movements were incredibly agile. They bounced back and forth on the edge of the pit like fleas, running straight towards the few people.

"Do you think they want to come and say hello to us in a friendly way?" Qu Anran asked confusedly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl of five or six years old opened her mouth towards them. Her entire mouth turned to the back of her head, revealing a scarlet mouth full of sharp teeth. On the tip of her tongue in her mouth was the head of a woman with a ponytail. She rushed up to the platform where the few people were, with tears of blood.

Qu Anran's right foot was nearly bitten off by her, so he quickly took a step back.

"These are citizens of the consciousness world." Zhang Chunliang observed their attire and said, "Chen Dahai devoured them and turned them into his minions."

"Citizens, how many people are there?!" Qu Anran looked at the black shadows rushing towards them like a stream, his face turned pale with shock.

"You'd have to ask your father about that. It depends on how many people he has seen and how many people he has created based on them. It looks like he should have copied your entire city. By this calculation, Chen Dahai has devoured at least a million people."

"From this moment on, he is no longer my father. I will sever all ties with him." Qu Anran said quietly, "Military Advisor, help me think of a solution."

Zhang Chunliang could only try hard to think of a way to break through.

In just a moment, the huge pit under their feet began to slowly rise upwards. The bottom of the pit was no longer out of reach. Countless residents gathered inside. One after another, they filled the entire bottom of the pit with their flesh and blood.

Zhang Chunliang looked at the steps far away in the sky, sighed, and looked at Chen Yue with some depression: "I really don't want to be separated from you here."

"I don't want to either, Liangliang." Chen Yue stroked the back of Zhang Chunliang's neck and gently rubbed his right cheek with the tip of his nose. "So I will get rid of them as quickly as possible."

Zhang Chunliang took out the wheelchair that had been stored in the system backpack and carefully carried Chen Yue onto it.

"Go ahead, walk forward, don't look back, Liangliang, I will always be here watching you." Chen Yue said softly, turning Zhang Chunliang towards the stairs, "Don't stop, trust me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of blood rose out of nowhere. The residents who were about to jump onto the platform were cut in half by the invisible wave and turned into pieces of broken bodies that flew into the air. They blocked the attacks of other residents below and also opened up a path connecting the concrete platform and the steps.

The body parts quickly fell down, knocking down a large number of citizens, but soon more citizens came forward and climbed up on their bodies, and then were cut in half again.

In this way, Chen Yue built a suspended bridge made of flesh and blood between them and the steps in the center of the pit.

Although it is incredible, if they are fast enough, they can indeed step on these corpses and rush to the steps in the center of the pit!

"So cool! A bit like Fruit Ninja! Your boyfriend is so handsome!" Qu Anran shouted. He clenched Zhang Chunliang's hand, braved the bloody rain, and leaped away on the corpses in the air. "I want to fall in love, too!"

Zhang Chunliang staggered and almost missed a step.

Another piece of flesh instantly appeared under his feet, helping him maintain his balance.

Just as Chen Yue said, Zhang Chunliang only needs to take a step forward, and he will clear all obstacles for him behind him.

"This is mine! You are not allowed to even think about it!" Zhang Chunliang shouted angrily.

Qu Anran smiled, but didn't say anything. His hand, which was holding Zhang Chunliang's, was slightly sweaty.

When the two men finally jumped onto the stairs, they were covered in blood foam.

"Yes, let's go find that old bastard in this state." Qu Anran nodded and said affirmatively, "Just like a ghost demanding his life, scare him to death."

They stepped onto the stairs leading to the sixth floor, and all the illusions behind them disappeared in an instant, even Chen Yue disappeared without a trace.

The two looked at each other with ambiguous emotions.

Zhang Chunliang raised his foot and tried to move forward, but Qu Anran held him back.

"Okay, Advisor, you can take a break now. This is my home court." He said, "It's impossible for a coach to hide in the back all the time."

In the face of Zhang Chunliang's astonishment, he showed a handsome evil smile, and his pupils suddenly turned into animal eyes, emitting a little green fluorescence, and two furry wolf ears appeared in his hair, flicking gently.

"I'm going to Chen Yue's house to get some oranges. You stay here and don't move." As he spoke, coarse wolf hairs appeared on his fair and handsome face.

Qu Anran twisted his wrist nonchalantly and climbed up the stairs. His chest and back gradually hunched over and he slowly turned into a giant wolf in the dim corridor.

Then, because of its huge size, it hit the railing hard, making a loud noise.

Zhang Chunliang: “…”

He sighed and tried to follow.

He knew that Qu Anran was a man with a strong heart. Although he was always shouting and screaming when he faced the monsters on the floor a few times before, he actually did not feel any fear at all.

He has been reserving his strength, just waiting to meet his greatest enemy.

Zhang Chunliang understood his desire to kill Chen Dahai, but given this guy's current condition, it would be a bit difficult for him to take revenge.

Things have come to a critical step, and he does not want his companions' efforts to go to waste. What's more, he also wants to settle the account with the scumbag Chen Dahai who abused Chen Yue since childhood.

Thinking this, Zhang Chunliang raised his foot and took a step forward, but he did not leave his place.

——A pair of dry sharp claws suddenly stretched out from the concrete stairs and tightly gripped his ankles.

Zhang Chunliang looked down and found that a lot of arms had suddenly stood up around him without him noticing. Some were long, some were short. Some had already dried up into skeletons, while others still had flesh and skin, emitting a rotten stench.

These arms had their palms facing upwards and their fingers shaped into claws, looking ferocious and fierce, like bouquets of evil spirits blooming in hell, blocking Zhang Chunliang's way.

Suddenly there was a loud bang from upstairs. Qu Anran probably found where Chen Dahai was hiding.

Zhang Chunliang took a deep breath, squatted down, and tried to pry open the sharp claw, but the claw was extremely hard, as if it was grown together with his flesh and blood, and it didn't move at all no matter how hard he tried.

In desperation, he could only summon attack props and chopped off the withered arm as quickly as possible. Then, while the other arms were not able to react, he took two steps at a time and climbed to the sixth floor.

The arms growing on the ground woke up one after another. They twisted and twisted on the ground in a strange way, blocking Zhang Chunliang's way one after another.

These arms did not attack Zhang Chunliang, but like annoying weeds, they constantly blocked his progress. No matter how he chopped, kicked and kicked, more claws would grow out of the ground the next moment.

Finally, he was accidentally pulled to the ground by a claw. The arms seized the opportunity and suddenly stretched themselves into ropes made of steel bars, binding him firmly to the ground.

The battle upstairs became more and more intense. He heard Qu Anran's wolf howls of pain, as well as Chen Dahai's filthy curses and pleas for mercy.

Qu Anran didn't seem to be at a disadvantage.

Zhang Chunliang tried to move his arms, but they were immediately tightened.

He lay on the ground dejectedly, not knowing what to do.

After an unknown amount of time, the building began to shake violently, and the air in front of Zhang Chunliang suddenly began to twist and agitate, making a sound like cloth tearing, and then slowly a crack appeared.

Chen Yue, half of his body was covered in blood, and he came out of the crack with an expressionless face. He slowly wiped the blood off his hands, his eyes were indifferent and unfocused, as if he was thinking about something.

Zhang Chunliang widened his eyes and made an "eh eh hmmm" sound.

Chen Yue was slightly startled, and turned his head to look at him. When he saw who it was, his eyes widened slightly: "Liang Liang?"

Zhang Chunliang was wrapped in dirty arms all over his body, and those strange arms left his nose exposed for him to breathe.

Seeing Chen Yue suddenly appear, the arms seemed to be frightened and shrank back into the concrete floor. Only one arm paused slowly for a moment before slowly disappearing.

"They won't let me leave." Zhang Chunliang's whole body was sore from being rubbed by the concrete floor, and his tone was very resentful.

"...Mom." Chen Yue looked at the place where the last arm left and asked in confusion, "That hand just now seemed to be my mother."

His mother had been abused by Chen Dahai for many years, leaving a hideous and ugly burn wound on her arm. Chen Yue recognized the wound on that strange hand.

He pulled Zhang Chunliang up and massaged his aching shoulders and back: "Why is she here?"

"I don't know either." Zhang Chunliang frowned and looked at the stairs, "They seem to be stopping me from going up..."

Suddenly, a beast-like roar filled with anger came from the top floor, causing Zhang Chunliang's eardrums to hurt severely.

"Qu Anran... ? Why can't I hear Chen Dahai's voice? Did he kill him?" Zhang Chunliang's heart was beating very violently, and he felt that something bad was about to happen.

"Let's go, leave here." Chen Yue's voice was a little serious, "This building is not right."

As soon as he finished speaking, debris began to fall from the old wall.

The grayish-white wall peeled off, revealing the wall behind it - flesh and blood fascia that were undulating in a regular pattern.

"I've fallen into a trap." Zhang Chunliang stared at the shaking wall as if he had seen a ghost, and the blood in his body ran cold from head to toe.

"This building was swallowed by Chen Dahai." Chen Yue made a quick judgment, "We ran into his stomach."

The shaking of the building became more and more violent, and something was reviving inside. Zhang Chunliang glanced at the floor below through the gap in the stairs, but he only saw countless railings and no end at all.

"We are trapped in a space loop and can't escape." Zhang Chunliang stood up, thought briefly for two seconds, and suddenly hugged Chen Yue into his arms, "I have to think of a way."

An arm suddenly emerged from the concrete floor, poked Zhang Chunliang's leg, and then pointed to the glass wall between the two stairs.

That was a unique light-transmitting design of old buildings. A large glass window was separated by cross-shaped bricks, leaving four narrow window frames that could barely squeeze in two people.

The gray glass had not been cleaned for a long time, and no one knew what was outside the building.

The wall paint was peeling off faster and faster, and the area of ​​the disgusting organs on the wall was getting larger and larger. Zhang Chunliang felt that it was becoming difficult to breathe.

If Chen Dahai really merged with the building, then this place would become an enclosed flesh bag, and they would most likely suffocate to death here.

Zhang Chunliang and Chen Yue looked at each other and asked, "Are you scared?"

Chen Yue suddenly smiled. His face was still stained with undried blood foam, which gave him a kind of enchanting and fragile beauty. He said nothing, but Zhang Chunliang knew his answer.

He nodded, then rushed to the glass window without any pause and broke the glass with his back.

The height outside the building was dizzying. The old residential building seemed to have risen dozens of times in an instant. Everything below was the size of an ant. Zhang Chunliang felt dizzy and had the illusion of flying in the sky.

Fortunately, he was not unprepared, as he had special landing props in his backpack.

He opened his system backpack and took out a bunch of giant dandelions.

Under the huge cover of the dandelions, the two of them floated lightly in the air, and their falling speed slowed down, just like two leisurely drifting fallen leaves.

"It's a bit romantic." Zhang Chunliang commented, "I always feel like I should do something."

Chen Yue looked at him intently for a while, carefully wiping the blood off his lips. He gently raised his head and tentatively moved closer to Zhang Chunliang's chin.

"Coward." Zhang Chunliang smiled and lowered his head to put his mouth on his lips.

At that moment, the building beside him shook violently, and smoke rose into the sky. The sound of the fierce fight between Ravenk and others on the ground sounded like a celebratory salute.

Chen Yue stared blankly at Zhang Chunliang's handsome eyes and eyebrows, and his lips, which were stained with suspicious water marks, opened and closed slightly.

He wanted to say something.

At this moment, Zhang Chunliang's heart suddenly tightened and he had a premonition of extreme danger.

When he was caught off guard, the dandelion in his hand disappeared instantly and the system space turned gray.

They were nearly ten meters above the ground and they fell suddenly, with a howling wind around them.

At this moment, Zhang Chunliang's heart stopped suddenly, and his premonition of death had never been so strong.

But he didn't know what he should do, and it was too late.

Just a few seconds before the two were about to touch the ground, Chen Yue protected Zhang Chunliang's head against his chest and turned his body under Zhang Chunliang.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Chunliang heard the sound of breaking bones and muscles, and he watched Chen Yue's smiling face shattered into pieces before his eyes.
