Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 999: Chapter 910: Queen of Terror 6

Lan Shuangshuang smiled indifferently and said, ”It seems you’re misunderstanding something. Do you think I’m your babysitter, here to take care of you? I have no responsibility, nor duty, to protect you. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me. I’m not a veteran needing your survival rate. I’m just a newcomer, a newcomer without any responsibility.”

”How can you be so selfish, only caring about yourself and ignoring others’ lives? Haven’t you ever needed someone’s help in your life? I advise you to be kinder when you step outside!”

Unexpectedly, the one who spoke wasn’t Mo Yuan, who had previously acted overwhelmingly strong, but Bai Xinrong, who had been silently hiding behind Mo Yuan, looking particularly honest.

Bai Xinrong’s face was somewhat red, eyes staring straight at Lan Shuangshuang with a slightly terrifying gaze, filled with persistence and a hint of madness. This is a common state for newcomers to the game — an abnormal state of madness after reaching the extreme point of fear.

Now, Lan Shuangshuang is seen as the life-saving straw by this cowardly woman pushed to the edge by fear, so she wants to desperately cling onto Lan Shuangshuang, believing that grasping this straw will keep her alive.

It wouldn’t be surprising if this cowardly woman exploded with some kind of insane malice, but Lan Shuangshuang didn’t care at all. Being pushed to the brink at the start of a game shows such poor mental qualities. Going insane doesn’t matter.

It’s merely a hornless sheep trying to resist the king of beasts. Therefore, Lan Shuangshuang reached out for a stone ornament from the hotel nearby, grasping it lightly, and the hard stone instantly turned to fine powder and fell.

Lan Shuangshuang dusted off the powder from her hands casually, glanced at Bai Xinrong with disdain and contempt, her eyes mocking as if confident Bai Xinrong wouldn’t dare to do anything.

Indeed, Bai Xinrong was intimidated by Lan Shuangshuang. The madness on her face had long faded, replaced by timidity, as she lowered her head, not daring to look at Lan Shuangshuang anymore.

Seeing Bai Xinrong cowering again, Lan Shuangshuang chuckled coldly and turned away. Not only was Bai Xinrong and several newcomers shocked by what Lan Shuangshuang had just done, but Zhong Junyu and Li Meng were particularly astonished as well.

After so many games, with physical qualities continually enhanced, Zhong Junyu can only crush such stones into fragments at most; breaking them into powder is impossible. Li Meng’s qualities are at least half as good as Zhong Junyu’s.

Watching Lan Shuangshuang’s departure, Li Meng couldn’t help but look at Zhong Junyu and express amazement, ”Brother Junyu, don’t you think this person doesn’t seem like a rookie? Their ability is too extraordinary, stronger than veterans.”

Zhong Junyu was unfazed as he said, ”Being a newcomer doesn’t mean they’re all weak. Didn’t you hear her say before? Her profession is exorcism, which means she’s a Heavenly Master, and a capable one at that, not a fraud.

A truly capable Heavenly Master is incomparable to many veterans. She’s already dealing with ghosts and gods in the real world, so this so-called horror game is no different from her normal days. Naturally, she needs no adaptation period.

Such a newcomer is bound to level up quickly, surpassing many veterans at the starting point. The game we see as life-and-death survival might be just a mere game for her.”

Li Meng felt a bit envious, ”It’s truly impressive. I always thought there can’t be ghosts in the real world, but it turns out there really are, and even the Heavenly Master profession exists!

Indeed, the Heavenly Master can take advantage. Ordinary people entering the game struggle to unlock such a powerful profession, whereas she’s already a Heavenly Master. Her abilities, cultivated independently, are untouchable even by the game’s restraints.”

The envied Lan Shuangshuang headed toward the cold storage area of the Ghost Hotel, noticing it was chillingly cold everywhere after leaving, prompting her to first stop by the hotel’s entrance.

From the entrance of the Ghost Hotel, she could see the outside scenery still distinctively summer, with the passage of time leaving it neglected, causing the ground outside to crack and weeds and wildflowers to grow exuberantly from the cracks. The sound of insects and birds filled the air, vibrant yet isolated, demonstrating that it isn’t the cold winter climate.

Unfortunately, while still in the game, no one can leave the game venue, which is this Ghost Hotel; although unable to exit, Lan Shuangshuang had confirmed her suspicion: the cold air in the Ghost Hotel is caused by ghosts.

Being created by ghostly entities, she naturally has to find the ghost to restore the temperature; yet, perhaps knowing Lan Shuangshuang is tough to deal with, the ghost fled after releasing the cold air.

Nonetheless, it doesn’t matter whether the ghost capable of releasing cold air must have died at a specific location to do so. Lan Shuangshuang moved forward lightly, gracefully as if on a leisurely stroll.

Upon seeing a pair of massive iron doors, a subtle smile appeared on the corners of her lips, raising her hand to easily push open the thick iron doors. She then looked upward at the partially transparent female ghost hovering in the air, her smile widening, softly saying, ”Found you.”

In the room, the four newcomers who were huddled together under barely enough blankets to warm themselves suddenly noticed the room’s temperature wasn’t as cold anymore. Just as they had this sensation, the frosted patterns on the glass and the ice beads on the walls began rapidly melting away, evaporating, causing the room’s temperature to rise almost instantaneously, soon heating them until they were sweating profusely.

This temperature is what this season should feel like — being hot enough to sweat profusely. Practically jumping apart, everyone knew they had to separate in such sweltering weather, lest they all suffer from heatstroke collectively.

The abrupt shift from cold to hot was unbearable for the four newcomers, who started with several sneezes. Then Mo Yuan began saying it was hot, searching the room for something to fan themselves with, unfortunately, only managing to fan the warm air around, but it was still better than nothing.

Soon even the calmest Wei Zhixin was too hot, shedding a jacket and long pants, leaving only a thin vest and shorts on.

Jiang Hongxin went even further, stripping off his upper clothing entirely, not worried about exposure since he was a man. Bai Xinrong and Mo Yuan were quite envious, as they couldn’t take off too much being women, no matter how hot it was.

Compared to this side going insane from the heat, wishing to strip off every layer, Zhong Junyu and Li Meng on the other side didn’t experience such madness from the temperature. After improving physical qualities, they developed certain tolerance to both cold and hot.
