Fierce Horror Dorm: Take a Concubine to Get Stronger Chapter 24
Xu Lang rushed up to the tenth floor safely and unimpeded, holding his knife and gun.
All the players were celebrating joyfully in the chat room, but few dared to rashly run out of their rooms.
Because they weren't sure if all the zombies were really dead, fear still lingered.
"Xu Lang, you're back!" Cao Yaxuan exclaimed with surprise when she saw Xu Lang enter through the door carrying large and small bundles.
"Yeah." Xu Lang put down the miscellaneous items and said, "Nothing happened at home, right?"
Tong Qi shook her head: "No."
Cao Yaxuan lifted her nose proudly and said arrogantly: "If there were problems, we would have contacted you through the chat room long ago. I told Tong Qi not to bother you unless necessary, so we wouldn't disturb you."
Tong Qi immediately blushed with embarrassment.
She hadn't even said she wanted to contact Xu Lang.
"Well done." Xu Lang praised them.
"Hehe." Cao Yaxuan couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of her mouth, feeling proud of her accomplishment as if her tail was about to wag up to the sky, though it was unclear what exactly she was so smug about.
"Lang Ge, what are all these things?" Tong Qi asked curiously, looking at the items Xu Lang had put down.
"Loot." Xu Lang replied briefly, then added: "The three-minute deadline is almost up. Let's wait until we get the game rewards before looking at these."
Hearing this, Tong Qi beamed with joy.
Lang Ge was treating her as one of his own people, not hiding these captured items from her.
Less than ten seconds after Xu Lang finished speaking, the rewards from the Dorm Survival Game arrived.
[Congratulations to Xu Lang for becoming the top player. Rewards as follows: Dorm Upgrade Count X1, Facility X1, Ability Potion X1, Free Attributes +6, Backpack upgraded to 3X3, 10000 Copper Coins]
[Congratulations to Zhang Dahai for becoming the second player. Rewards as follows: Dorm Upgrade Count X1, Ability Potion X1, Free Attributes +5, Backpack upgraded to 2X2, 7000 Copper Coins]
[Congratulations to Wang Ao for becoming the third player. Rewards as follows: Dorm Upgrade Count X1, Ability Potion X1, Free Attributes +4, Backpack upgraded to 2X2, 5000 Copper Coins]
[Congratulations to Wu Huihui for becoming the fourth player. Rewards as follows: Dorm Upgrade Count X1, Free Attributes +3, Backpack upgraded to 2X2, 3000 Copper Coins]
The rewards for players four through ten were all the same.
As for players beyond the top ten, they only received 2 free attribute points, 2X2 backpack upgrade, and 1000 Copper Coins. Additionally, there was no voice announcement, only lines of numbers.
...
"Damn, I'm actually below Zhang Dahai!" Wang Ao was resting with a group of people when he heard the voice announcement and couldn't help but curse.
He knew he couldn't surpass Xu Lang - the two hundred point gap was simply despairing at first glance.
But he was only a few points behind Zhang Dahai. Although their rewards were the same, he just felt unhappy about it.
"Ao Ge, that Zhang Dahai is just pure lucky, don't be angry!"
"That Xu Lang is probably similar too, both are just opportunists!"
"Ao Ge, quickly check what your rewards are, that Ability Potion sounds amazing!"
"Hey, by the way, should we go to Zhang Dahai's place and steal his rewards!"
"Let's go, let's all go together!"
...
Dorm 186.
"Oh, great Huihui, great, we're fourth!" Wang Tingting raised her hands high, cheering and jumping around.
"Hahaha!" Wu Huihui laughed heartily, her chubby cheeks squeezing her eyes into slits, unable to conceal her joy.
...
"Whew, that was close, almost fell out of the top ten." In his dorm, Zhu Yan let out a sigh of relief, tightly clenched his fist, his eyes shining with excitement.
He didn't aim for the best, but he couldn't be the worst either.
Players beyond the top ten could only be considered as receiving basic welfare.
...
"Ah, brother, you're still dead after all." Cao Bin looked at Wu Leiting's corpse and sighed.
Judging by the zombie, Wu Leiting was killed by the Cat Demon.
If he hadn't died, he might have been among the top ten now.
Cao Bin's score was relatively low, and unlike others who were either delighted or resentful, he just felt somewhat depressed looking at the bloodshed throughout the building, and also wanted to vomit.
...
Dorm 200.
Two glowing spheres floated continuously in Xu Lang's field of vision, one labeled "Dorm" and the other "Facility," with a thirty-minute countdown.
"Can you two see the glowing spheres?" Xu Lang turned and asked.
Tong Qi shook her head: "Can't see them."
"What glowing spheres?" Cao Yaxuan blinked.
"They're prompts for upgrading the dorm." Xu Lang was thinking about something - if the two women had made it into the top three, could they directly upgrade the dorm three levels in a row!
After brief contemplation, Xu Lang first reached out and touched the "Dorm" glowing sphere.
Although mental contact was possible, using his hand gave a stronger sense of reality.
Instantly, the dorm sphere dispersed, forming three different dorm layout diagrams.
Xu Lang thought for a moment and chose the middle one.
This layout featured an entranceway, living room, bedroom, open kitchen, and a bathroom with separate wet and dry areas.
A private bathroom - just thinking about it felt luxurious!
After Xu Lang made his selection, the entire room's layout began to transform, as if someone had pressed the fast-forward button.
Sofa, living room, pendant lights, kitchen... all necessary appliances appeared!
[Owner: Xu Lang]
[Dorm Level: 1]
[Area: 60]
[Tenants: 2/3]
[Facilities: Shiny Steel Door, Gas Stove, Premium Sofa, Incandescent Light, Excellent Water Dispenser, Flush Toilet, Shower Head, Clock]
...
Dorm 200 had undergone a dramatic transformation. Except for those miscellaneous items that still looked somewhat out of place, the entire dorm was completely renewed, resembling public housing.
Xu Lang felt the air had become fresher, took a deep breath, then immediately headed straight for the shower room.
"Wait for me!" Cao Yaxuan exclaimed anxiously, quickly following.
How could a boy compete with girls for bathroom rights!
Xu Lang took off all his clothes and pants even before entering the bathroom.
Taking the shower head, Xu Lang eagerly tried to use it, but received a prompt.
[The shower head requires 30 Copper Coins payment for every 5 minutes of use. Pay fee? Yes/No]
Seeing this, Xu Lang roughly understood the situation.
No wonder monsters almost always dropped Copper Coins - they were waiting for this moment.
As expected, the flush toilet and electric lights probably also required Copper Coins.
While Xu Lang was still staring at the shower head, Cao Yaxuan rushed in, also completely naked.
The two began showering together.
Later, Tong Qi joined in as well, the three enjoying themselves harmoniously. Some small incidents occurred during this time, but didn't take too long.
There was still a time-limited upgrade option to consider - just getting a taste was enough.
Xu Lang dried his body, found a set of clean clothes from the miscellaneous items to put on, then proceeded to tap the second glowing sphere.
The sphere representing facilities also burst open, dispersing into four items.
They were respectively: camera, refrigerator, air conditioner, microwave oven.
Xu Lang frowned, seeing they were all quite ordinary items. With enough luck, one might even scavenge them from trash, and they might come standard with the next dorm upgrade anyway.
After some thought, he chose the surveillance camera.
This thing at least benefited survival and had some practical value.
In an instant, the glowing sphere completely disappeared, and a thirty-centimeter surveillance screen appeared on the wall.
Xu Lang walked over to look and found the field of view was quite broad, monitoring at least the corridor to the left and dorms 199 and 198 to the right.
Taking out his Colt with a flip of his hand, he walked out of the room and looked up at the surveillance camera above the room number plate.
[Surveillance Camera]
