  "No, what's wrong with you guys?"

  "Did we say something taboo?"

  Liu felt very strange about the change in their attitude, as if he had said something he shouldn't have.

  Tian's face was clouded with uncertainty, and after a long time, he exhaled a sigh of relief.

  "You guys... you're really unlucky!"

  The two looked at each other, and Ning frowned, "What do you mean?"

  Tian introduced them to the mechanism of the terrifying world behind the blood door:

  "The ghosts inside the blood door are divided into two types... one is born in the place, these ghosts are bound spirits, no matter how powerful they are, no matter how deep their resentment is, when we complete the mission and leave the blood door, the grudge with these ghosts will come to an end."

  "But the other type... is special."

  "Although they are also restricted by the rules of the blood door, they are not limited to one area. When they have slaughtered all the NPCs in a certain area, they will go to other places to wreak havoc."

  "These ghosts... have an absurd amount of resentment!"

  "Usually, after you encounter one in the previous blood door, the next blood door will have something to do with its story!"

  "And the blood door stories involving these ghosts are all more terrifying and have a higher death rate than ordinary blood doors!"

  After a pause, Tian's tone carried a hint of sympathy.

  "I don't know what bad karma you guys have... you encountered a ghost like that in your first blood door, no wonder only two of you survived."

  "But I think you'll only live until this point, I'm not cursing you... go write your last will and testament, make arrangements for your affairs."

  "Say goodbye properly to your family and friends."

  Tian sighed longingly and helped them to collect their dishes, carrying them to the kitchen.

  At that moment, the two of them finally understood why their attitude had changed so drastically.

  Because in their eyes, the two of them were already dead!

  "Seriously, do they really look down on us like that?"

  "If we can survive the first time from that ghost thing, we can survive the second and third time!"

  "They think we can't survive the next blood door, well, we'll survive to show them!"

  Liu grumbled and pretended to be nonchalant, but Ning could hear a barely perceptible tremble in his voice.

  After washing the dishes, Tian still took the two of them to their room in the Villa.

  Surprisingly, they didn't live in that villa.

  Instead, they lived in a flat behind the garden.

  The environment was beautiful, even though it was desolate, it was definitely much better than that dark villa.

  Tian handed them the keys, instructed them about a few things, and then went back to the villa to watch TV.

  Although they had a TV in their room, the one in the villa was much larger.

  Because Ning and Liu both had things on their minds, they didn't take the bus back to their original world, wanting to wait for Liang, the headman of the Villa, to come back and ask him about the next blood door.
