This stab was the fastest strike Leo could make! It accurately hit the dean who was lost in his own thoughts. After the tip of the scalpel pierced the dean's forehead, an unexpected change occurred! The dean, whose power hadn't completely faded yet, suddenly widened his bloodshot eyes as big as copper bells! Blood vessels wriggled in his eyes, like centipedes crawling. The pale claws that had been gripping Leo's neck lost all their strength in the moment of the dean's impending death.
Leo landed on the ground in a sorry state. He lifted his newspaper mask and coughed a few times. There were already several bluish - purple claw marks on his neck! The dean was still hanging on a rope, but his head had dropped.

[Item: Blood - Stained Scalpel]
[Quality: Unique]
[Introduction: Your soul weapon. It has slightly awakened due to absorbing the hatred of the evil ghost, and it now possesses a faint chaotic damage.]
[Note: Chaotic damage ignores resistance, evasion, and damage reduction, and it will inevitably cause full damage to all units.]
[Effect: —— Data error ——]
...
"Chaotic damage... Is it some kind of advanced attribute?" Leo secretly remembered this special attribute.
After killing the dean, Leo looked at the hanged ghost in front of him seriously and pulled the scalpel out of the dean's forehead. Blood kept dripping from the tip of the knife. Leo went to the dean's office. After rummaging around for a while, he found a letter and the dean's access card in the cabinet. He took the access card and put it on himself, then opened the letter and read it.
The diary of the Crying Ghost earlier had piqued Leo's interest in this world. Colossus Hospital and Guxuan Town had clearly been invaded by mysterious forces, which was why they had become like this. Although the newbie dungeon didn't give Leo the opportunity to explore the world view, Leo still wanted to find some available materials to have a try. It was hard to say that he wouldn't enter the dungeon of this world view again in the future.
The letter was sent from the outside world. There were only a few words written on the letter paper, and the handwriting was rather messy.
[Lao Chen, I've contacted the authorities and bribed the guards in the town for you!]
[Guxuan Town is no longer safe!]
[Pack your things quickly. In the next two or three days, go to the station at the South Town Gate. There will be a black DeTruck waiting for you.]
[If it's any later... There may be unexpected changes!]
There were only four lines of text in total. There wasn't even a signature on the envelope. The sender clearly knew what had happened in Guxuan Town. But things still didn't go as expected. The dean, whose name was 'Lao Chen', eventually died in the hospital! And his death was a tragic one!
Leo squinted his eyes, folded the letter paper, and put it back in another drawer. He turned around, left the dean's office, and locked the room.
After that, Leo took the access card and carefully avoided some extremely dangerous unknown shadows all the way to the main entrance of the hospital. The security guard's body was shattered into pieces and scattered on the ground. In an instant, Leo suddenly felt something and locked his eyes on a twisted human figure in the shadow! The figure didn't move at all and had its back to him!
[??? : Extremely Dangerous!]
[Note: Don't let him out of your sight, or something terrifying will happen!]
Seeing this red - marked prompt, Leo's hair stood on end! He couldn't see the strange twisted human figure clearly. But both the data prompt in front of him and his own instincts told him that this thing was something he definitely couldn't afford to provoke at the moment!
Leo walked to the door calmly and swiped the access card. Beep —— The black iron gate let out a harsh screeching sound, like a machine that hadn't been operated for hundreds of years, and slowly opened. The outside world was shrouded in a thick fog, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Apparently, this newbie dungeon didn't want to reveal more information to Leo.
Leo stared intently at the twisted figure in the darkness and slowly stepped back, disappearing into the thick fog little by little... As the thick fog completely obscured Leo's body, a white light appeared in front of his eyes, and his body suddenly vanished from this thick fog.
After Leo disappeared, the twisted figure in the shadow suddenly turned around, froze like a puppet, and coldly stared at the place where Leo had disappeared...

In the live - streaming room, there was a great commotion. A newbie had actually achieved an s + rating in the hell - level, eerie dungeon 'Colossus Hospital'! Many people who had witnessed it all were extremely excited, as if they had cleared the dungeon themselves!
And Leo, just after returning to the safe zone, received more than 99 friend requests!
Eternal Night Camp was a safe zone where players could communicate with each other. In fact, it wasn't a real place in the traditional sense. It was a virtual platform. There were live - streaming rooms of all the players in the entire region, and players could also trade items with each other. In the camp, there was a forum where players from a certain region could exchange their experiences in dungeons, as well as discuss some of the difficulties in their region and the experience of expanding their territory.
Leo looked around and found himself in a special environment. There was a white circle in front of him. Inside it were two different options.
[1 Please select the guild you want to join ——]
[2 Do you want to create a guild on your own?]
One was to join a guild, and the other was to create one. Leo opened his system panel. Among the friend requests, there were many with a noble golden mark. The identities of those people were extraordinary. They were important staff members of large guilds. They didn't do anything else but wanted to invite Leo to join their guild and frankly stated that they would provide resources for his cultivation, greatly increasing Leo's survival rate in dungeon quests and world quests!
Among them were the internal members of several top guilds such as Five Tigers, Bugle Call Camp, Skywatch, etc.! These large guilds were very strict in recruiting members. And they almost never accepted newbies! Their invitations to Leo were already an exception! You know, for an ordinary player, even if they tried their best, it would be very difficult to transfer to one of these top guilds in the Bone Region! A good guild had various rich resources, which could quickly advance world quests, expand the guild's scale, and obtain more benefits!
