Chapter 42: High Heels, the Last Day of the Game

Last night, caught up in the excitement, Xu Lang bought several small items that increased charm from the Trading Network, raising Tong Qi and Wang Yazhi's Comfort Level to 94 and 95 respectively, while Cao Yaxuan reached her highest peak so far at 98 Comfort Level.

Although it only brought a bit more Nightmare Coin income, Xu Lang had already decided that from now on, the Comfort Level could only go up, never down.

Buying things like bunny ears and stockings only cost around a hundred Copper Coins.

And having one more Nightmare Coin could save your life at a critical moment.

"Lang Ge~" Tong Qi grabbed Xu Lang's mischievous hand, her eyes pleading.

They had played too wildly last night, and thinking about it this morning made her feel ashamed.

Xu Lang hummed happily, demonstrating the dorm owner's absolute control over the tenant.

Unbeknownst to her, Cao Yaxuan and Wang Yazhi were already awake, which could be determined from their breathing patterns.

Xu Lang directly rolled over and engaged in "morning exercises" with Tong Qi.

Just another ordinary day.

Time passed like a white steed's shadow crossing a crack, the night seeming to pass in an instant.

At dawn, Xu Lang learned through the chat room that Wu Huihui had gone to the supermarket, so he asked her to buy some things for him.

Total expenditure: 300 Copper Coins.

All shoe items.

The final result was quite disappointing.

Only Wang Yazhi's Comfort Level increased by 1 point after putting on a pair of cream-colored high heels. Perhaps because the shoes didn't match their style, Tong Qi and Cao Yaxuan didn't get any Comfort Level increase after wearing them.

That morning, Wang Yazhi had terrible luck.

"Sigh……"

Seeing that Xu Lang and the others had fallen asleep, Cao Yaxuan sighed secretly, feeling quite melancholy inside.

She was happy that Xu Lang bought them gifts.

Little Lang buying gifts for Sister Ya made Sister Ya very happy.

But Sister Ya really didn't like Little Lang's rough treatment of Wang Yazhi.

"Hmph, what a bad guy, he'll die in bed sooner or later!" Grumbling to herself, Cao Yaxuan turned over and went to sleep.

"What should I do, could I be pregnant?"

Wang Yazhi had only closed her eyes but hadn't actually fallen asleep.

Pregnancy was something all three women worried about.

But in this environment, asking them to take protective measures was somewhat darkly humorous.

Currently in the dormitory building, there were quite a few couple dormitories, but almost none had the leisure to bother with safety measures.

If you actually went to buy condoms, people would just think you were an idiot.

If you can survive one month, that's already impressive enough - who would care about what happens after!

However, even though they said this, everyone would still think about it afterward and inevitably worry.

Searching for pregnancy-related videos on certain platforms, the most liked comments were those about welcoming periods or welcoming periods for girlfriends.

There was no helping it - pregnancy was quite a serious matter.

"Let's just survive this round of the game first, next time see if we can get Xu Lang to do it outside……"

Tong Qi faced the wall, her big eyes blinking repeatedly, also unable to sleep.

The only one who could actually fall asleep immediately after finishing was Xu Lang alone.

However, unlike the other two women, she was thinking about other things.

"How should I allocate my stats? I really want to help Lang Ge too."

Xu Lang single-handedly killing veteran players looked really cool, but it also made Tong Qi feel guilty.

She felt she was too useless - besides cooking and cleaning, she couldn't help Xu Lang with anything.

"Since I can't sleep, I'll browse the chat room more."

The next day, 5:00 PM.

This was the first time Xu Lang had so many Nightmare Coins - saying he wasn't excited would be impossible.

Xu Lang restrained the thrill brought by one-click upgrades, took a deep breath, got out of bed and did two push-ups.

Tong Qi quietly opened a slit in her eyes, seeing Xu Lang exerting force against the floor, and secretly relaxed.

At least he wasn't exerting force on her.

"Xu Lang, why are you doing that today?" Cao Yaxuan stretched lazily, looking at Xu Lang as she asked.

"What's wrong with doing push-ups?" A trace of confusion flashed in Xu Lang's eyes.

Doing push-ups tended to make him sweat, which would indeed be troublesome for Cao Yaxuan and the others to mop the floor later, but this wasn't worth mentioning.

This was the only reason he could think of for Cao Yaxuan saying this.

"Don't you know the dormitory floor is sacred and inviolable?" Cao Yaxuan hummed.

Xu Lang's face darkened, and he directly rolled over and jumped up, walking toward Cao Yaxuan.

The dorm owner's authority over tenants was unlimited!

Once 6 o'clock passed, there were only twenty-three hours left until the next round of the game began!

Competition among players reached its peak on this day, with mutual oppression reaching its limit.

As a result, two murders occurred.

The perpetrators were residents from the fourth and third floors respectively.

This immediately caused an uproar among the fourth and third floor residents, who threatened to breach the dormitories of those two Blood Grudge players as soon as the game started, making sure they died first.

Xu Lang silently lurked to avoid drawing fire to himself.

He also carried Blood Grudge on him.

Amid the noisy arguments, new residents arrived.

Some experienced players complained incessantly, saying that the more people in the dormitory building, the higher the game difficulty.

But some veteran players didn't care about this, considering it superstition.

After observing for so many days, Xu Lang had noticed something.

The most superstitious were these veteran players - some theories were like padding for game draws, with some treating them as gospel truth while others scoffed at them.

Xu Lang casually tore open a bag of potato chips, eating while pondering.

"It seems like no veteran player's experience exceeds three cycles."

"With so many experts now, I've become inconspicuous."

"The former genius Wang Ao has now been reduced to a minor character."

"Wu Huihui is doing quite well though - she has the most people in the tenth floor dormitory, basically securing her position as floor leader."

Floor leader - this was the title for the boss of each floor.

The first floor had its floor leader, the second floor had its floor leader.

This didn't mean the floor leader was necessarily the strongest on their floor, but rather the most leadership-capable one.

On the final day before the game started, the floor leader positions had already been determined - the bottom nine floors all had veteran players as floor leaders.

There was no helping it - some veteran players transferred over with their tenants, a whole nest of veteran players whose strength was simply too overwhelming for newcomers to withstand.

Only the tenth floor was peculiar.

Because Wu Huihui loved sheltering her female friends, most tenth floor dormitories were occupied, preventing others from transferring over, and no veteran players came to compete for it either.

The highest and lowest floors, the leftmost and rightmost positions - generally these were the worst positions.

Either an incredibly lucky start or a disastrous start.

And given the nature of dormitory survival games, disastrous starts were more common.

Similarly, some people were quite superstitious, like those who disliked room number 4...

In short, opinions varied widely.

"Lang Ge, today is the last day of the rest period." Tong Qi said in a declarative tone.

Her eyes showed some emotion and worry, besides which was resistance.

Except for madmen and ambitious schemers, no one wanted to play this damn game.

"We will definitely survive." Wang Yazhi patted Tong Qi's shoulder, her red lips pressed into a straight line.

Xu Lang chuckled lightly, stating confidently: "We'll make it into the top ten! In hell, we'll be the elite troops!"

Although he had coasted his way through, he actually had the qualifications to say this.

Winning by coasting was still winning, after all.

Actually, Xu Lang's dormitory configuration wasn't bad - except for the main door, everything else was on par with veteran players, plus they had a rare Guardian Spirit stationed there.

If not for the Guardian Spirit's rule of only recognizing one dorm owner, veteran players would definitely be competing for this dormitory right now.
