Ethan Blake is extremely cautious in every step he takes.
Places with low-level danger or above,
Definitely not taking any chances.
As soon as something goes wrong,
Ethan is ready to run away at any time.
Because life is more important...
Thinking about this,
Ethan clenched the kitchen knife in his hand.
The long hair of the female ghost's head fell to the ground,
Dark red blood kept dripping from the knife's edge,
Leaving a long trail in the corridor.
Ethan suddenly stood still,
Turned around,
And stood in front of the classroom door closest to the girls' restroom.
[Class 1, Grade 2, Whispering Shadows University: Low-Level Danger]
Ethan picked up the kitchen knife,
Knock knock knock—
Three regular knocks on the door.
Creak—
A heartbreaking voice sounded.
The classroom door slowly opened inwards,
Behind the door,
A bloodless human face was revealed.
One head shorter than Ethan, thin and frail, with a wild hairstyle.
[Peter Clark, the fierce ghost from Class 1, Grade 2, Whispering Shadows University: Low-level danger]
...
In the live broadcast hall,
In front of Ethan's live broadcast screen,
More and more people gathered.
"Has anyone ever encountered this NPC?"
Unexpectedly, someone has actually met him.
"I don't know the storyline behind Peter Clark, but he is of a high level and cannot be dealt with by a newcomer armed with sophisticated weapons. I barely escaped death."
"Tsk, tsk, this newcomer is really unlucky."
"Hey, I told you a long time ago, don't open a classroom casually."
...
Peter Clark raised a sinister smile,
Moved his eyes down,
The smile froze.
Ethan has a kitchen knife in one hand and a female ghost's head in the other.
The side of his face was still stained with bits of blood that spattered when he cut off the female ghost's head.
Ethan showed a smile that he thought was friendly and kind...
"Classmate, do you know her?"
Ethan raised the female ghost head in front of Peter Clark,
Trying to let Peter see it more clearly.
A bloody head suddenly came up in front of him...
"Ah!"
Peter screamed,
He retreated in panic and distanced himself from Ethan.
Peter's pupils were shaking, and he looked at Ethan's eyes,
Full of—
Shock, horror, fear, dread.
...
The voice that was still feeling sorry for Ethan just now stopped suddenly.
After a long time, someone spoke.
"This NPC named Peter Clark... was scared by the players?"
"Where is the brother who just said he escaped death?"
Unexpectedly, he would be the "player who escaped from death under Peter Clark" with this development: "..."
On the barrage.
: ???
: Damn, suddenly it cuts to Peter Clark's main perspective. Does this dog live broadcast want to scare me to death?!
: The ghost didn't scare me, but a player actually scared me!!
: So his solution is to carry a head around and ask the ghost if he knows it?
: I don't understand. What can I do if I know you?
: Manual @One of the Best.
The barrage started @One of the Best.
In the live broadcast hall.
"One of the Best's judgments was wrong before. Now he definitely doesn't dare to take the lead."
Someone answered: "The analytical ability of One of the Best is widely recognized, and it is unlikely that he will make mistakes every time."
"Rational."
Thousands of calls,
One of the Best shows up.
One of the Best: Find someone who knows the female ghost, and you can also understand the plot and fulfill the female ghost's wish.
: Simple and clear, get to the point.
: I see.
: As expected of One of the Best.
: Master One of the Best, please bring me to this book next time!
...
As an NPC, Peter Clark
At this time, he had forgotten his mission.
Facing Ethan, all he could do was shake his head crazily.
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I don't recognize, I don't recognize!"
Ethan took back his hand,
He glanced at Peter with pity.
"Died young and a stammer."
Ethan nodded politely to Peter, turned around, and left.
He went to the next classroom.
Boom—
Behind him,
The door to the classroom of Class 1, Grade 2, was slammed shut.
The sound of the door closing seemed to infect Peter's inner trembling.
Ethan just looked back,
Then he walked to the door of the next classroom.

[Players unlock the "Step by Step" achievement]
More and more viewers,
Watching Ethan knock on all the classroom doors on the second floor one by one.
Ethan repeated the same question—
"Classmate, do you know her?"
The evil ghosts who were walking sideways in the dungeon shook their heads tremblingly, expressing that they did not recognize him at all.
Ethan didn't say much and finally walked to the last classroom on the second floor.
The devil in this classroom,
Wearing a red dress, bleeding and crying, full of resentment.
Looking at the head in Ethan's hand, he showed a vicious smile.
Even looking at Ethan was full of hostility.
"I know, of course I know this female cousin!"
One of the Best: Look, the key NPC in the plot has been found! It is indeed the method I mentioned. You can crack the mission after listening to what she said!
: Wow, I actually found it!
: I thought the hidden mission couldn't be continued, but I didn't expect it would be possible. It's just too risky.
"You know?"
Ethan's eyes lit up.
His efforts finally paid off.
He raised the kitchen knife,
Smiled happily.
The knife fell from his hand.
The devil didn't react.
The audience players did not react—
The heads of the evil spirits are separated,
Another head,
Rolled to the ground.
Splattered blood,
Half of Ethan's face was dyed red.
Even one right eye was stained red.
Like a madman.
"That would be great..."
Ethan whispered to himself.
Everyone: ?????.
