In the "Loving Family" chat room, Cao Yaxuan and the other girls were rapidly exchanging messages.

[Cao Yaxuan: Really, doing something so dangerous without even telling us!]

[Tong Qi: Lang Ge replied to my private message. We should fight if we can, but don't force it.]

[Wang Yazhi: Deal with monsters that can be quickly eliminated, quickly. Over at Twilight Building, there's only one fighter jet left.]

Twilight Building Safe Zone.

Seven Night Vision Deities surrounded a fighter jet, unleashing their attacks, looking like graceful fairies.

Not long after, this fighter jet crashed down. Before it even hit the ground, it exploded into a burst of loot.

Cao Yaxuan swooped over, gathered the loot, and looked at Wang Yazhi. Before she could speak, the dormitory building's broadcast sounded again.

[Act Four Concluded]

[Act Five: "Tactical Squad"]

[Game Background: To find the hiding humans, the military tactical squads have mobilized in full force. Knowing they can no longer hide, the human side has taken new action... We cannot sit idle any longer! We must report Dawn City's situation to the Federation and find out what exactly has happened in this city!]

[Game Duration: 0~24 hours]

The frozen scenery of Dawn City began to move!

Those robots resembling powered armor activated on their own. A tactical squad entered the Safe Zone, comprising twelve combat units in total.

They held guns and cannons, looking very intimidating.

"A big job is here!"

Scouts positioned outside the Safe Zone saw them and immediately relayed the message back to the dormitory.

Then they tried to hide.

However, contrary to their wishes, this robot tactical squad had two surveillance units that detected these scouts immediately.

Suppressive fire arrived as expected!

Even though the scouts were all highly skilled, under the surgical precision of the tactical squad's assault, two of them still fell on the spot.

The other scouts scattered like panicked animals. Some ran towards the dormitory, while others fled further away.

The robot tactical squad coordinated with flawless synergy, needing no gestures or verbal commands. They moved in unison, chasing after one particular scout.

[95 Wu Sheng: Help!!!]

This scout hurriedly called for help, sending messages to several internal groups. The chat room was also flooded with his pleas for aid.

"Wu Sheng is surrounded. The enemy force isn't large. Let's go together!" On the sixth floor of Mad King Building, the owner of Room 95 called out, leading his tenants as they leapt down from the building.

The former owner of Dorm 95 was Xiao Yan, but he had long since died in the struggle for resources.

Such matters didn't catch Xu Lang's eye, but they were major events constantly happening within Mad King Building.

At this moment, all ten corridors of Mad King Building were packed with people, a surging tide of humanity.

Seeing everyone from Dorm 95 leave, players immediately followed suit.

Soon after, nearly half of Mad King Building's players had all descended, heading towards the edge of the Safe Zone!

This scene was quite astonishing—players mobilizing on a large scale, actively moving to intercept monsters.

"Charge!"

"Carry the Mad Vanguards with us!"

"We can't let Lang Ge face the danger alone. Brothers, follow me!"

"It's just one tactical squad. Loot goes to the first to get it!"

"The situation is clear now. Not taking the initiative is waiting for death!"

"Damn Mad King Building! The three-day game time is clearly a trap! That robot will definitely enter the Safe Zone in less than a day!"

"Mad King Building, screw your mother!"

Players from Mad King Building jumped down from the building one after another, howling and cursing at the sky, like beasts who had lost their reason.

In fact, Mad King Building players didn't have much reason left...

To maintain combat power, everyone's SAN value was basically kept around 60. A 40% increase—who wouldn't say that's absolutely worth it?

...

After the Immortal Fire entered its third stage, the damage output Xu Lang dealt per second reached a new level.

The Apocalypse Fighter Jet urgently changed its strategy. It no longer attacked Xu Lang. Instead, it used its arms to protect its vital areas, striding forward with its head held high, marching towards the Safe Zone.

Xu Lang's pupils contracted sharply. A startling conclusion formed in his mind.

"Shit! It actually knows that leaving this space will remove the restrictions!"

He didn't know if this course of action was something it detected on its own or if the dormitory building had given it some kind of revelation.

Xu Lang didn't have the energy to probe it with his Nightmare Eye right now.

In short, the Apocalypse Fighter Jet was done playing with him.

While attacking, Xu Lang quickly calculated. In an instant, his heart sank like a stone.

The output was just barely enough!

But 'just barely' wasn't good enough. It needed to be absolute, certain, guaranteed!!!

With this thought, Xu Lang merged the Other Shore Twin Swords together!

A sword wave exploded point-blank on the Apocalypse Fighter Jet's body!

The killing move unleashed by these two Mythical-grade weapons caused the Apocalypse Fighter Jet to pause for a moment... before it continued walking forward.

This meant that, according to its calculations, even with the damage from the Other Shore Twin Swords' sword wave, it could still reach the Safe Zone before being destroyed!

"Hah..."

Xu Lang let out a breath.

He felt this cunning, evil, despicable, low-down, filthy robot was holding a trump card, so he temporarily decided against using the Yin-Yang Corpse Immortal Transformation Card.

After all, the transformation state from that thing only lasted five minutes.

Right now, there were only two methods to quickly boost his combat power.

One: Consume items.

Two: Consume SAN value.

Xu Lang consumed several items in one go.

Nowadays, most buff items had little effect on him. Only those with percentage-based boosts had a noticeable effect. Such items were very rare, and their effects often overlapped.

It was all Mad King Building's fault for being so useless, their level too low, their item strength insufficient, their item variety lacking.

Next was the main event...

"SAN value, I command you to drop!!!"

That old method of self-harm to control SAN value was too inefficient!

The King of Two Buildings had a better idea!

Xu Lang lowered his spine and let out a furious roar. The Seven Killings Blood Qi surged towards his brain!

[Received damage from Seven Killings Blood Qi. SAN value -20!]

[Received damage from Seven Killings Blood Qi. SAN value -16!]

[Received damage from Seven Killings Blood Qi. SAN value -14!]

[Received damage from Seven Killings Blood Qi. SAN value -10!]

[Received damage from Seven Killings Blood Qi. SAN value -5!]

Xu Lang's SAN value plummeted like it was jumping off a cliff!

In the end, his base attributes skyrocketed by 70%!

Before, he had always carefully maintained his SAN value.

Because if this thing dropped to zero, he might transform into a Mad Vanguard, and Mad Vanguards were immortal... This could potentially prevent the Epitaph from activating, trapping himself in a dead end.

However, that possibility was very small. Xu Lang had a vague feeling that the Nightmare Lord's mechanics might override those of Mad King Building.

Besides, he had also told Cao Yaxuan and the others not to deliberately lower their SAN values.

If everyone kept their SAN values low, the entire dormitory would be a nest of lunatics...

Yet, at this very moment, Xu Lang felt he had misunderstood and been prejudiced against lunatics in the past.

What's wrong with being a lunatic?!

This feeling of the SAN value dropping was just too damn exhilarating!

His brain's processing speed took off, instantly switching from a real-world engine to a virtual one, completely breaking free from the laws of physics!

Before, it was like driving on a national highway. Now, it was like playing f*cking QQ Speed!

Car crashes and fatalities? What does that even mean? All I know is fly, fly, fly, fly, fly!!!
