Chapter 61: The Monster on the Ninth Floor, Believe in Xu Lang

Room 186, Wu Huihui and Wang Tingting listened to the zombies banging on the door outside, their expressions grim.

Nie Xiaozhu stood behind the door, sweat beading on her forehead, using steel materials to repair it whenever the durability dropped.

Wu Huihui had previously promised to upgrade Nie Xiaozhu's room, but considering the cost, she simply made her a direct tenant of room 186 instead.

Coincidentally, a female veteran player was asking Wu Huihui if there were any vacancies on the tenth floor, so she gave up the spot.

Female groups really do prefer sticking together in clusters.

And that female veteran player was different from Xu Ruyan - she was a slacker player with terrible dorm configuration, otherwise she wouldn't be changing floors.

"Sister Huihui, if we rely purely on the door to hold out for ten minutes, it might be impossible," Nie Xiaozhu said urgently.

Other floor leaders, after noticing the zombies' attack rate, became relaxed and weren't particularly worried.

But Wu Huihui's group was different.

This approach improved everyone's survival capability, but it also reduced Wu Huihui's group's own survival chances!

"If we can't hold out, then the other sisters in other dorms..." Wang Tingting looked worried.

"Don't worry!" Wu Huihui snapped.

Wang Tingting and Nie Xiaozhu immediately looked at her in confusion.

"What's wrong, Sister Hui?" Nie Xiaozhu asked timidly.

When Wu Huihui got angry, she could be quite intimidating.

Wu Huihui snorted heavily through her nostrils and said, "Trust Xu Lang, he'll definitely pull the monsters!"

Nie Xiaozhu and the other's eyes lit up immediately.

Tenth floor players were complaining incessantly.

Wu Huihui's worries were completely justified.

To slow down the zombies' durability consumption, some people had no choice but to open their doors and fight the zombies directly for a while before retreating back to their dorms.

But this approach carried huge risks, and if they got scratched, they needed glutinous rice for treatment.

Actually, the tenth floor players' overall defense was relatively high, since Wu Huihui didn't drain resources like other floor leaders did.

This strategy seemed foolish but was actually excellent, benefiting everyone - it's just that few could actually implement it.

However, the current problem was that the tenth floor's monsters were zombies!

The zombies' door-breaking ability was absolutely terrifying!

So right now, the tenth floor had become the most precarious floor.

Room 180, Xu Ruyan manually controlled her turrets, picking off zombies with precise shots.

She had a level three dorm with four turrets, all level two, with formidable firepower.

However, she was alone in her dorm, and when the door's durability dropped, she had to repair it herself, which was quite troublesome.

Xu Ruyan didn't have surveillance cameras, but she seemed able to sense the situation outside. After blasting a zombie's head with a water cannon, she went behind the vermilion dorm door to repair its durability.

Just as she was about to make repairs, her hand holding the materials paused, and she quickly put her eye to the peephole.

Immediately, she gasped in shock.

She saw green-eyed wild wolves, leopards, and monkeys running out into the hallway.

These were monsters from the ninth floor!

At this realization, her expression immediately tightened.

Her vermilion door was very effective against ghost-type monsters, but it wasn't good at dealing with physical attack monsters like these.

"Am I going to die here?"

A bad thought rose in her mind.

But she wasn't too afraid. Taking advantage of the water cannon's effect on the zombies, she suddenly opened the door, released a cloud of green poisonous mist, and then closed the door again.

The green poisonous mist lingered in front of her door, continuously damaging those monsters.

Eighth floor, Room 159.

"Damn it!" Eighth floor leader Zheng Kai cursed loudly after seeing the emerging beasts through his peephole.

He immediately shared the beast information in the chat room, then opened his door, kicked away the paper dolls blocking it, and threw out two molotov cocktails.

Flames instantly erupted in the hallway corridor!

These flames would burn door durability, but they would also damage monsters.

He had to cripple this first wave of monsters, otherwise if they went to attack other dorms at full strength, it would accelerate player attrition on the eighth floor.

The dorm closest to the hallway was indeed the death position, but it was also the output position - monsters passing by four turrets would get attacked to some extent!

Other floors were experiencing the same situation, though their pressure wasn't as heavy as the tenth and eighth floors.

Meanwhile, Room 200.

"Finished them off!" Xu Lang looked at the completely empty area outside his door and let out a sigh of relief.

Through the surveillance screen, he could see that there were still zombies outside room 199.

Xu Lang opened his door.

Instantly, the zombies that had been attacking room 199 immediately turned around.

Additionally, many zombies without attack targets came hopping over in this direction.

Opening and closing the door was done in one smooth motion.

Now he just needed to wait for the zombies to come deliver points.

"Brother Lang, it's bad! Monsters from the ninth floor are coming up!" Tong Qi shouted.

During normal battles, Tong Qi monitored the chat room while Cao Yaxuan watched the surveillance screen, with Wang Yazhi providing support.

Hearing this, Xu Lang immediately opened the chat room and found the monster information that Wu Huihui's group had posted.

They were three types of beasts: wolves, leopards, and monkeys. Fortunately, they were all level two creatures, not very strong, at least far less threatening than zombies.

"It's fine, Tong Tong. Keep monitoring the player list in the chat room and see if there are any casualties on the tenth floor," Xu Lang said calmly.

After all, everyone's doors were surrounded by zombies, so no matter how fast the durability dropped, it would only be so bad.

The most important thing now was monster clearing capability.

If the clearing capability wasn't strong, death was inevitable sooner or later.

Tong Qi nodded. She had been paying attention to this in her heart and replied, "Two minutes into the game, four dorms have been breached. The player from room eighteen abandoned their dorm and became a wanderer. Some monsters went chasing after them..."

Wanderers referred to those without dorms.

Thirteen casualties in two minutes might not seem severe, but Xu Lang's expression was very grave.

With every player's door surrounded by monsters, once casualties started occurring, it was extremely easy to trigger a domino effect!

However, even though Xu Lang anticipated this outcome, he couldn't do much to help others.

This was the Dorm Survival Game - just defending your own territory was already quite an accomplishment.
