Chapter 213 Taking Action, New Discoveries
Su Ze's gaze tightened.
It could actually be like this?
With a thought, he immediately issued an order on the Public Channel: "I'm going out now to test the strength of the Supernatural Entities. All of you, be ready at all times."
Before his voice had even faded, he had already pulled open the Dormitory door.
Outside, the corridor was packed with Supernatural Entities, staring at him with their pitch-black eyes.
The shrill wails of ghosts instantly filled his ears.
Many Wandering Ghosts, like sharks smelling blood, charged at him fiercely.
Su Ze felt the air grow cold. Looking at these eerie creatures, he felt a slight discomfort, and his eardrums throbbed from the ghostly wails.
However, his own strength gave him great confidence, so it was merely that.
He immediately tried to use the [Strange Language] Bond.
"Li!!"
He emitted a similar ghostly wail.
The Supernatural Entities rushing forward noticeably slowed down, appearing somewhat hesitant.
Their speed slowed, but only for a fleeting moment. Then, their resentment and longing for the living took over again, and they lunged forward relentlessly.
"It seems [Strange Language] isn't very effective against them."
Su Ze had a better idea of the situation and stopped wasting time.
He took a deep breath, an invisible force gathering in his throat.
Then, with a deafening roar, he unleashed the [Soul-Shaking Roar]!
"Roar—!"
Invisible sound waves, mixed with pure spiritual energy, swept out like a hurricane!
"Zhi—!"
The group of Supernatural Entities closest to Su Ze took the roar head-on. In their pitch-black eye sockets, something invisible seemed to shatter. Their bodies stiffened abruptly, and they let out ear-piercing screams.
In the next moment, like snow scorched by a blazing sun, they collapsed to the ground in agony. Their bodies rapidly turned to ash and vanished, leaving behind only a few scattered drops.
[Ding! Killed Wandering Ghost (LV3), obtained copper coins +40!]
[Ding! Under the enhancement of the [Gold Burst] Bond, obtained an additional copper coins +20!]
[Ding! Killed Wandering Ghost (LV3), obtained copper coins +40!]
[Ding! Under the enhancement of the [Gold Burst] Bond, obtained an additional copper coins +20!]
...
A series of system notifications rang out in Su Ze's mind.
He raised an eyebrow slightly.
A Level 3 Zombie only drops 30 copper coins, but these Supernatural Entities actually drop 60?
"It seems the strength of tonight's monsters won't be particularly high."
Su Ze made a judgment in his heart, and his tone became more composed.
He immediately issued an order on the Public Channel: "Except for the leaders on the First Floor, all other leaders are to begin clearing and rescuing immediately!"
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
Wang Meng, Xu Feng, and the other nine leaders replied instantly and rushed out of their respective dormitories.
Su Ze didn't linger; he headed straight for the First Floor.
...
Inside Dormitory 404.
Jiang Yuwan sat at the table, looking at the [mirror of surveillance] in front of her. The screen continuously switched between scenes of various floors.
Liu Qiaofei and Yao Qingya were both trembling slightly, their eyes darting away, not daring to look directly at the images in the mirror.
Zhuang Xiaoxin pursed her lips tightly, also not daring to look.
Qiao Yunge was a bit nervous, but she still patted her chest, feigning a carefree attitude.
"It's nothing! Let me see what's so different about these legendary Supernatural Entities!"
Saying this, she reached out to apply the ox gall tears.
But as soon as her hand moved, her actions suddenly froze.
Her gaze was fixed on a scene in the [mirror of surveillance], an expression of disbelief appearing on her face.
"I... I think I saw some human shapes..."
She looked in surprise at Su Meier and Li Xinran beside her.
"Did... did you guys apply the ox gall tears?"
Su Meier shook her head, a hint of confusion on her lips.
"No, why?"
Li Xinran gave a light snort and tilted her head up: "No, but it's not like I'm afraid to."
"No, quickly look at the mirror, can you see anything?" Qiao Yunge pointed at the mirror, her tone carrying a hint of urgency.
Su Meier and Li Xinran glanced at it hesitantly and then both shook their heads.
"I can't see anything, Little Sister Qiao. Are you just too nervous?" Su Meier said with a light laugh.
Li Xinran just curled her lip and didn't respond.
However, An Lan, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, suddenly spoke up.
"I didn't apply them either, but I can see very clearly."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it caused the atmosphere in the Dormitory to freeze again.
"I'm not exactly sure, but I can see them faintly."
Qiao Yunge and An Lan both looked at Jiang Yuwan at the same time.
Jiang Yuwan adjusted the glasses on her nose, her tone calm.
"I can see them very clearly too."
She paused and analyzed rationally: "The intelligence and spirit attributes of the three of us have become quite high after Su Ze rewarded us with free attribute points."
"Coupled with the effect of the Enfeoffment, we can see more clearly than Yunge... yes, that's most likely the reason."
Although Jiang Yuwan felt this intelligence might not be particularly important, she immediately sent this discovery to Su Ze via private message.
...
The First Floor corridor.
Su Ze's figure was like lightning, weaving through the swarms of Supernatural Entities.
"Roar—!"
Another [Soul-Shaking Roar]!
The Supernatural Entities in front of him collapsed in pain again, turning into ash.
[Ding! Killed Wandering Ghost (LV3), obtained copper coins +40!]
[Ding! Under the enhancement of the [Gold Burst] Bond, obtained an additional copper coins +20!]
...
This time, besides copper coins, one of the Supernatural Entities also dropped a gray stone.
[soul stone]
[Quality: fine]
[Introduction: A stone containing a few remnants of a Supernatural Entity's soul, can be used for refining special materials.]
Su Ze gave it a quick glance; it was just some kind of material, its specific use currently unknown.
He casually put it into his backpack.
He tried attacking with his long spear.
The long spear, carrying immense power, stabbed fiercely at a Supernatural Entity.
"Puff!"
The long spear pierced through the Supernatural Entity's body, but it felt as if it had stabbed into a mass of air, with no sense of resistance at all.
The Supernatural Entity let out a shriek, its body twisting slightly, but it quickly returned to normal and continued to lunge at him.
"This..."
Su Ze was somewhat speechless.
His strength attribute was so high, yet pure physical attacks were actually not very effective against these Supernatural Entities!
He quickly withdrew the long spear and instead took out the [Lightning-Struck Peachwood Sword] from his backpack.
The peach wood sword felt warm in his hand, emitting a faint aura of lightning.
He swung the sword fiercely, a sharp sword light flashing as it slashed into a Supernatural Entity!
"Chī—!"
The Supernatural Entity let out a shrill scream, its body emitting a burst of black smoke as if being scorched, then quickly decomposed and turned into ash.
[Ding! Killed Wandering Ghost (LV2), obtained copper coins +40!]
[Ding! Under the enhancement of the [Gold Burst] Bond, obtained an additional copper coins +20!]
"It works!"
Su Ze's eyes lit up.
Physical attacks were ineffective, but specialized magical artifacts could easily deal with these Supernatural Entities.
He cleared his way through, quickly killing all the Supernatural Entities on the First Floor, but they continued to drift out from the black mist incessantly.
Just then, the private message from Jiang Yuwan and reports from the other leaders popped up one after another.
He quickly browsed the information, especially Jiang Yuwan's discovery about "players with high spirit and high intelligence can directly see Supernatural Entities," which made him nod thoughtfully.
He could verify that when he had time.
Meanwhile, anxious messages from the leaders also arrived.
[Private Message · Wang Meng: Boss, the crisis is temporarily over, but many Supernatural Entities are appearing continuously. We can't keep this up...]
[Private Message · Xu Feng: Boss, we've cleared a batch here too, but they respawn too quickly, and we can't spread our firepower. The durability of some dormitories is dropping very fast!]
[Private Message · Qiao Yunfeng: Boss, there are only a few of us, but Wandering Ghosts are constantly respawning at both ends of the corridor. There will definitely be casualties at this rate!]
Su Ze looked at these messages, his mind racing.
He knew that this way of fighting was definitely not a long-term solution.
He had to find a more effective strategy.
Just as he was thinking, a private message from Chen Xueming suddenly popped up.
[Private Message · Chen Xueming: Boss, I've discovered something! The Supernatural Entities prioritize attacking dormitories that have observed their existence!]
Su Ze's gaze suddenly sharpened.
[Private Message · Chen Xueming: In other words... we can still use Kiting Tactics!! We just need to make some adjustments!]
Su Ze saw the two messages and instantly understood...
