The fog was thick and deep. Lin Jue, with his bag on his back, walked out of the dormitory building. He first went to check on Grandpa, who was leisurely half-lying down, fanning himself with his security hat, looking quite like he did when he ran his shop.

After confirming that he hadn't been discovered, he headed towards the infirmary.

When he reached the bridge over the lake, Blood Shadow spoke up: "There's a fellow in there. Although he's not strong, he's very slippery… Hmm? Why can't I sense his aura?"

"Maybe he's already been cleared out by the teachers and students of the school? After all, his location is too conspicuous, with teachers and students constantly walking back and forth."

Lin Jue appeared calm, seemingly forgetting that the Water Ghoul had died at his hands.

"That shouldn't be," Blood Shadow said, puzzled. "Although we hunt teachers and students, we never show ourselves if we encounter opponents we can't beat. Even the principal has a hard time finding us. The Water Ghoul was clearly still here during the last game."

"Even the principal has a hard time finding you? Is this a power the Dorm Master left on you?" Lin Jue had a question that had been on his mind for a while: why haven't the Urban Legends been completely eliminated to this day?

The Urban Legends are usually confined to a specific area. With the principal's strength, he could completely eliminate all the Urban Legends except for Blood Shadow, but several remain to this day.

"Yes, our numbers are already small, so the Dorm Master left his power on us, allowing us to sleep when the students are active and wake up at night. If we don't want to show ourselves, we can hide and remain undetected."

"That ability only becomes ineffective when the game starts."

Hearing Blood Shadow's words, Lin Jue nodded. No wonder when he went to Room 605 during the day, he only sensed Blood Shadow around but couldn't see any sign of him.

The original owner of this body had a useful ability; he could hide if he couldn't win.

At this moment, Blood Shadow spoke again: "There's one over by the sports field, and another in the infirmary. They're conveniently along the way."

"Those two should have been cleared out too. I certainly haven't seen them," Lin Jue said as he walked, and then asked, "Xiao Ming, you're also from the infirmary. Are there any other fellows there besides you?"

"…It seems like they've been cleared out. I don't remember very well," Xiao Ming replied, trembling.

"That's three less all at once. The number is really getting smaller and smaller," Blood Shadow sighed. The Urban Legends were always at a disadvantage. If they couldn't hide during normal times, they would have been wiped out long ago.

After returning to the infirmary, Lin Jue unzipped his bag slightly and lay down on the bed.

Although the breakthrough in the Body Tempering Art had reduced his need for sleep, he hadn't slept much in the past few days. He had to carry that heavy resentment to play the game tomorrow, so he had to maintain sufficient energy.

The next day, Lin Jue went out with his bag again, guided by Blood Shadow to the places where the Urban Legends were hiding.

Blood Shadow sensed carefully. There were six Urban Legends left. Adding them and Grandpa, Lin Jue's side had a total of eleven.

On the school's side, there were hundreds of Ghost Students, as well as teachers with D-level strength, and the even more terrifying Dean and Principal.

The Dean and Principal both had C-level strength.

This was the information Blood Shadow had gathered from the previous games. Moreover, because of the Vicious Blood, the school's side was constantly growing stronger. Each game resulted in the loss of a dozen or so Urban Legends.

Whether in terms of quantity or quality, the odds were no longer equal. It seemed that losing was an inevitable outcome.

"The survival of all of us Urban Legends is entrusted to you. Do you really have the confidence to wipe out the school?" Blood Shadow emerged from the raincoat. After learning that the number of Urban Legends had decreased again, his mood was heavy.

"Don't worry. You just need to hold off that Principal, and leave the rest to me," Lin Jue signaled for him to rest assured.

Lin Jue stood up, looked through the broken window at the increasingly dark fog outside, and vowed: "I have made ample preparations."

"What preparations?" Blood Shadow stood beside him. Lin Jue's confidence seemed to infect him, making his face less solemn than before.

"I sent Grandpa to work as the school's security guard. He'll be responsible for blocking the door, and we'll be responsible for trapping them like turtles in a jar, ensuring that none of them escape," Lin Jue said slowly.

Blood Shadow: "…"

Would you like to hear what you're saying? What kind of preparation is that? Are you so sure that those teachers and students will escape? Or are we the turtles in the jar?

As Lin Jue swallowed the last bite of bread, a bell rang.

Accompanied by the bell, darkness completely enveloped this fog-covered area.

Unlike the silence of the previous nights, the school tonight became unusually lively after the bell rang. Everywhere was filled with the roars of fierce ghosts. The resentment of all the Ghost Students and teachers was completely unrestrained at this moment, erupting completely, turning into streams of dark pressure, tearing through layers of fog.

"There's another bell, and there should be a ten-minute gap between that bell and this one. Within these ten minutes, the remaining living people must find a place to hide. If they are found by those ghosts, they will become food."

Blood Shadow stared grimly outside: "After ten minutes, this school will be a night of a hundred ghosts, and all the Urban Legends will be revived at that time."

"This place will become a purgatory."

[Plot 6: During your work, you learned that this school has a bloody game. You believe that this game is full of violence and killing, which is not conducive to the psychological development of students. You feel that as a psychology teacher, you should do something in this game… ]

Lin Jue took a sip of water, swallowed the bread in his mouth, stuffed Blood Shadow back into his raincoat, put on his bag, and walked out the door.

On the sports field, there were hurried footsteps in the fog-covered areas. It should be the remaining living people finding places to hide.

A student ran into Lin Jue's line of sight. When he saw him, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he hurriedly ran to another place, disappearing into the fog.

The fog churned, and the resentment of all the fierce ghosts turned into dark clouds, shrouding the sky above the school.

"Let's go."

Amidst the wails of ghosts and howls of wolves, Lin Jue patted his heavy bag and walked step by step across the sports field.

The previous hide-and-seek game had three camps.

The eerie, the living, and the Urban Legends.

And now, this time, a fourth camp joins the game.
