"Colossus Hospital" The Female Ghost in the Elevator

"Wow, this newbie has triggered the hidden mission in Colossus Hospital!"

"Damn, that's impressive!"

"So Old Man Jack can't move at all! But how did he figure that out?"

"Whoever called this newbie a moron just now, please step forward!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion. Suddenly, a person with a special frame spoke up in the live - streaming room.

Tom: Although it might seem like a lucky shot, among the new players who were newly included in the Bone Region this year, he's performing quite well so far. In newbie dungeons, the outcome often isn't the most crucial thing. What really matters are his mentality, judgment, and reaction abilities.

"?? Is this the vice - president of the [Bugle Call Camp] guild, the big shot Tom?"

"It really is Tom! Let's take a photo for memory!"

"Why does big shot Tom have the time to come to a newbie's live - streaming room?"

"Is your guild short of members? Big shot, look at me! I'm already level 12!"

Tom: We're not short of members. I just happened to be free and dropped by to take a look. It's a good chance to analyze the newbie dungeon situation this year.

Tom: Given the current situation, the best way for Leo is to resist the temptation of the hidden mission and focus on completing the main quest. The map of Colossus Hospital isn't large, and there aren't too many monsters. However, there are many restrictions on the exits. One must obtain an access card to leave.

Tom: But as far as we know, there are two access cards in the hospital. One is on the dean, and the other is in the Logistics Department . The former is bound to be extremely difficult to obtain, and the latter might be quite challenging to find. Let's see how this newbie will play it out.

Tom: Also, Old Man Jack has subtly told Leo that his daughter died in the elevator, which means the elevator in the hospital shouldn't be used.

In the live - streaming room, Tom was analyzing rationally when he suddenly stopped.

Because he saw Leo running straight towards the elevator with a property deed in his hand...

...

The wooden decorations in the elevator were extremely shabby.

There were many dark - brown spots.

They were dried bloodstains.

Apparently, something had happened here.

Leo stroked his chin and stared at the elevator for a long time.

...

[Elevator: Low - level Danger]

[Note 1: There is a vengeful spirit inside. Its power and resistance have been severely reduced, but it still has a physique five times that of a human. You can't fight it bare - handed.]

...

The label appeared again.

After seeing this label, Leo smiled.

The one who died in the elevator was most likely Old Man Jack's daughter!

Its power and resistance were severely reduced.

Good,

very good.

Leo stepped forward bravely.

He walked into the elevator.

His hand reached into his pocket and took out a black object, placing it under the property deed.

Most hospitals have a map on the first floor, and this map would be very helpful for Leo to complete the mission.

So he wanted to go to the first floor.

He pressed the button.

The elevator started to descend slowly.

1s...

2s...

Suddenly -

The lights started to flicker erratically!

The elevator began to shake!

...

The changes in the elevator made the audience in the newbie live - streaming room tense up!

"As expected, newbies are newbies. They easily overlook details. It seems he's going to stop here."

"As the saying goes, an elevator is like a living coffin. In such a dangerous world, entering the elevator is really an unwise choice!"

"Indeed!"

"By the way... Is this newbie's mental quality a bit abnormal? Up until now, his mental power hasn't dropped at all?!"

"Really? Isn't he scared at all?"

...

Inside the elevator,

Leo's eyes kept looking around.

Before he knew it -

A drop of viscous liquid dripped from the ceiling.

It landed right on Leo's forehead.

It slid down his nose.

Leo's gaze swept across, and it was a patch of blood - red.

It was blood!

Something strange, wet, and cold landed on Leo's shoulder, sending a bone - chilling chill.

Leo slightly turned his head and saw... a mass of hair as tangled as seaweed!

Without any warning,

a horribly broken and blood - smeared ghost face suddenly appeared in front of Leo!

This startled many people in the live - streaming room, making them break out in a cold sweat!

This kind of sudden horror was really intense!

"I died so miserably..."

A cold moan echoed in Leo's ear, almost freezing his blood!

Leo stuck out his tongue and actually licked the blood on his nose.

His face showed a somewhat strange excitement.

"Are you Old Man Jack's daughter, Snow?"

...

"Guys... I feel like Leo's expression... doesn't look right?"

"It doesn't seem like he's scared. He even seems a bit... excited?"

"Can he even get excited in this situation?"

"True to his heart! I'd call him... a real brave man!"

In the live - streaming room, the people who were initially frightened by the suddenly - appeared ghost were mostly less scared when they saw Leo's expression.

...

Seeing that this man in front of her wasn't scared at all, Snow was also stunned.

What's going on?

Was she not scary enough?

"I'm Snow... Are you here to avenge me?"

The blood - stained face, the wet and sticky black hair...

The pale skin, the eerie tone...

Leo wasn't afraid. He even wanted to perform a craniotomy on her.

"Your father, Old Man Jack, has a special gift for you."

Snow was taken aback.

"My... father?"

Leo nodded.

"He left it specifically for you. He said it was very important and asked me to make sure you got it."

"It seems to be related to some property deed."

"But first, tell me about yourself. Weren't you supposed to have died in an elevator accident? Why do you want revenge?"

Upon hearing the words "property deed", Snow, the ghost, knew that Leo was indeed sent by Old Man Jack.

Because only three people in the whole hospital knew about this.

Her, Old Man Jack, and the dean.

Snow's eyes were cold, and the eyeball hanging outside her eye socket was full of venom. Her aura became more and more unstable.

"Accident?"

"Yes... Everyone thought it was an accident..."

"Do you also think it was an accident?"

"Do you think so too?!"

As she spoke, she suddenly thrust her terrifying, broken face in front of Leo!

Her venomous eyes stared fixedly at Leo!

Leo blinked and asked:

"And then?"

The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.

A ghost scaring people is a terrifying thing.

But if it can't scare people, it's really embarrassing.

Snow coughed dryly twice, slowly retracted her face, and said coldly:

"It was the dean.

He murdered me and pushed me off the rooftop!

Then he had someone collect my body and claimed it was an elevator malfunction!"

Leo suddenly understood.

"So, you want me to kill the dean for you?"

Snow nodded.

"If you kill the dean for me and bring his head back to me, I'll give you a generous reward!"

There was no system prompt.

This meant that the ghost was lying to Leo.

She didn't plan to give Leo a reward at all.

Even... she was likely to kill Leo after the deed was done!

"What are his weaknesses?"

Leo seemed not to notice and continued to ask on his own.

"He's the most powerful ghost here... but also the weakest one.

Unlike other ghosts... he doesn't know he's dead!

If you can make him realize that he's already dead... his obsession will disappear, and his power will fade!"

After the ghost finished speaking, Leo handed the property deed and the sphere underneath to the ghost's hand.

"I understand."

"These things are from your father for you."

"I'll try to avenge you. Take a look at them first."

Snow's cold gaze fell on the property deed, and she casually took the two things Leo gave her.

The process was so smooth.

So smooth that the ghost didn't have any suspicion.

Leo walked out, turned right.

He stopped.

He covered his ears.

A strange pull - ring was hooked on his middle finger.

After a short wait -

An extremely dazzling light exploded in the elevator!

A violent explosion followed, and countless pieces of flesh and wood chips flew out, spreading all over the ground for more than ten meters!

A blown - up, round head rolled out of the elevator, and the fallen eyeball was filled with extreme unwillingness and horror...
