He heaved a sigh of relief, secretly glad he hadn't pulled out Mario's pipe wrench. If that excellent grade main weapon had been taken by Oink, he would have had to accept his loss.

Actually, losing the kitchen knife here wasn't a bad deal. Trading a common quality piece of equipment that could be easily obtained in a large script for a unique item in this script that could restore survival value was a fairly fair exchange.

Feng Bujue grabbed a bowl and quickly walked to the stove. He opened the lids of both pots and peeked inside, stirring them with a soup ladle. The two pots actually contained the exact same thing. He could find pork and pork bones in the soup, and on the nearby countertop, he could see chopped leftover pork fat and skin. Seeing this, Feng Bujue was finally completely relieved. He couldn't help but wonder... if it were him, would he have the courage to turn the corpse of one of his own kind into a dish? What would he be feeling while doing it?

Oink walked over at this moment. He seemed to have seen through Feng Bujue's thoughts, and coldly snorted, saying in a casual tone, "In the place where I was born, it was full of lies and enslavement. Thinking was not allowed. The priests taught us to be content with our lot, to endure hardship. I have processed countless pigs in the slaughterhouse, repeating the same things every day. Cooking them is nothing."

Feng Bujue didn't know how to respond, so he just nodded and made a sound of agreement.

He quickly filled a bowl with soup, held it in his hand, and walked out of the kitchen in three steps instead of two. Before leaving the kitchen, he turned his head and said to Oink, "Thank you, um... goodbye."

Oink didn't respond. When Feng Bujue walked out of the kitchen, the lights inside suddenly dimmed, and the burly figure of the pig-headed man disappeared back into the darkness.

[Main Quest Progress Updated]

[Explore Ye Jie High School, break the seven supernatural phenomena, current progress 6/7]

Si Yu heard the system notification and saw Feng Bujue's returning figure, finally relieved. The past few minutes had been harder to bear than the previous hour. She had been sitting on pins and needles alone. If Feng Bujue had gone and not returned, she would definitely blame herself. In her opinion, she was mainly responsible for how this script had progressed to this point.

However, when Si Yu saw what Feng Bujue was holding in his hand, joy and relief instantly turned into shock and doubt. She thought to herself, *What does this mean? Is he addicted to it? He's already had two bowls and he's preparing to take out a bowl?*

Feng Bujue brought the soup to her and placed it on the table. Then, he pointed at Si Yu with his finger, then turned his palm upwards and made a gesture of holding a bowl, pointing it towards his mouth, indicating that Si Yu should drink the soup. Because she didn't yet know that the soup could restore health, Feng Bujue added a few more gestures to explain this.

After Si Yu understood, she drank the broth. Afterwards, she checked the game menu, and her survival value had actually gone from 21% directly back to full. She gestured towards Feng Bujue, indicating that she had returned to full health.

Feng Bujue nodded, asked her to hand the lantern back to him, and then he led the way forward.

When the two walked out of the cafeteria, the ghosts and monsters outside had once again surged in from all directions. Hair like long silk, slit noses and mouths, bodies covered in scales, wearing phantom masks... this scene reminded Feng Bujue of the isolated city controlled by Samodir. Before clearing that script, he and his teammates had also been surrounded by a large group of monsters. However, there were still differences. The monsters they had encountered at that time were mostly related to the "demons" of Western legends; while the ones chasing him and Si Yu now were basically "ghosts and monsters" with traditional Eastern characteristics.

Without time to think, and without being able to stop, Feng Bujue took the lantern and led the way, running forward, with Si Yu following closely behind. Although she didn't have Jazz Dance, it wasn't too difficult for her to keep up with Feng Bujue's speed.

Both of their survival values were full, and after resting for more than an hour, their stamina values were also very high. At this moment, Feng Bujue and Si Yu were very confident that even the adversity of being chased by ghosts couldn't stop them from completing the last task.

They fled all the way, with the ghosts and monsters chasing relentlessly. After bypassing the main building, the two came to the open playground once again.

At the school gate, under the moonlight, one could see from a distance... a solitary figure standing there, no... a ghostly figure.

It was a little girl wearing red clothes. When she entered Feng Bujue and Si Yu's field of vision, the nursery rhyme began to sound again. This time, it was sung directly from the mouth of this ghost.

Accompanied by her singing, the surrounding scenery began to change. A layer of dark veil covered the bright moon, appearing intermittently. The school buildings, plants, playground facilities, and so on behind them all disappeared, replaced by a scene of a mass burial ground.

When Feng Bujue and Si Yu arrived in front of the little girl, she had also just finished singing the last sentence, but at this moment, this sentence was different from what the two had heard at first: "Gloomy ghosts, dripping blood... fierce ghosts chasing for your life, take your time, take your time... it's hard to walk on the road to the Yellow Springs." The ethereal and sorrowful tone came to an abrupt end.

The little girl giggled, a laugh that was chilling to the bone. She then said, "Uncle, Auntie, come and play with me, okay?" As she said this, black, foul blood flowed from her seven orifices, and her body floated into the air out of nowhere.

[Current Task has been changed, Main Quest has been updated]

[Destroy Hui Yizi's ghost]

[Dialogue restriction has been lifted, ghost chase will continue until the task is completed or all players die]

The first sentence that Feng Bujue blurted out after being able to speak was: "Who's the uncle!" He shouted this, put away the lantern, and stepped forward, truly moving like a freed rabbit, fierce as a tiger, pulling out the pipe wrench and hitting the monster's face.

With a *pu* sound, he actually hit successfully. Hui Yizi's face was smashed with a gap, and another burst of black blood spurted out. But as the Boss of this script, she would naturally not be finished off so easily. Judging from the fact that she was still floating, this blow was not fatal.

Feng Bujue grabbed the ghost child's neck with one hand, and repeatedly struck with the pipe wrench in the other, completely disregarding the blood splattered on his face. While hitting, he didn't forget to add, "You should call me *gege*!" (older brother)

"Hahahaha... hahahaha..." Hui Yizi laughed wildly. Even though the bones of her head had been deformed, she didn't care, and the effect of [Concussion] never triggered on her.

On the contrary, Feng Bujue's survival value was decreasing inexplicably... black blood, laughter, or simple contact would cause him to lose health? He couldn't tell for the time being, so he had to grit his teeth and continue hitting, hoping that the attack would have some effect.

Si Yu watched this scene from the side, feeling a little amused. In fact, she originally wanted to complain about the word "Auntie", but seeing Feng Bujue's so excited and crass reaction, it calmed her down instead, making her feel that she couldn't be like Ge Jue and go with the flow...

"Your Spirit Art specialization has been activated?" Si Yu came with her sword in hand, speaking as she walked. Her movements were neither fast nor slow, and the large group of ghosts and monsters surging from the mass burial ground behind her didn't seem to pose any pressure to her. Because her eyes had already locked onto the target she wanted to kill.

Feng Bujue replied, "That's right, what's wrong?" A second after blurting it out, he understood the answer to the question himself, and immediately said, "Oh... so only people with Spirit Art specialization can actively 'touch' the entities of these ghosts?"

"Yes." Si Yu returned to her concise and to-the-point style. After replying with this sentence, she had already flashed to Hui Yizi's side.

Her heart was as still as water, her eyes were cold, and her sword was drawn quickly, incomparably sharp.

A cold light flashed past. Before Feng Bujue could react to what had happened, Hui Yizi was cut in half at the waist, and a piercing scream echoed through the night sky. In the next second, black blood suddenly gushed out from the severed part of the monster's waist... At that moment, it was as if someone had cut open an orange full of juice. Feng Bujue quickly jumped away, or else he would have been taking a shower.

As the saying goes, one doesn't fear not knowing the goods, but one fears comparing goods. Feng Bujue's attack seemed extremely fierce, but in reality, it was like scratching an itch for the monster. If he had been trapped in the space of the thirteenth step earlier, he wouldn't have had enough lives even with three. But Si Yu only needed one sword to solve the problem. This was an innate talent, just like those top experts in martial arts novels who could see through the opponent's "fatal point" at a glance, thereby winning with one move.

[Current Task has been completed, Main Quest has been fully completed]

[You have completed this script, automatic teleportation will occur in 180 seconds]

Feng Bujue said, "No way? That powerful?" Although he also knew that she was very strong, this was the first time he had witnessed Si Yu directly killing a Boss-level monster. He had seen her fly up and cut the chandelier in the Usher Mansion before, but he didn't expect that she was also good at killing ghosts.

"No, you're the厉害 (lì hai - awesome)," Si Yu said. "This time, it was all thanks to you."

As they spoke, Hui Yizi had already fallen to the ground, turning into a pool of black blood. The large group of ghosts and monsters also disappeared along with the illusion of the mass burial ground, and the scenery of the school appeared once again.

The two stood at the school gate, bathed in moonlight, illuminating the earth. The sign of "Ye Jie High School" was once again displayed in front of them. Everything seemed like a dream, so illusory, yet so real. The eerie and terrifying scenes from before were still vivid in their minds. The vengeful spirit in the dry well, the monstrous arm playing the piano, the corpse cradle, the blood shadow of the pupils, as well as the Butcher of Paradise and Hui Yizi just now. In terms of the degree of terror, Feng Bujue's experiences in this script should be more than enough to scare a guy with Xiao Tan's courage offline. He just didn't know if he could see the changes in his fear value during this settlement.

"Let's talk in my conference room later," Si Yu then said, implying that they should leave the script first.

"Okay, I'll party you after the teleport," Feng Bujue replied.

After the two said goodbye, they teleported almost simultaneously.

About a minute later, at the school gate, a burly, pig-headed black shadow slowly came pushing a cart filled with cleaning supplies and stopped beside the pool of black blood.

After wetting the mop in the bucket, it slowly began to mop the floor.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed that what was wrapped around the end of the mop wasn't cloth strips, but black hair...
