Chapter 718: Resurrection, Snake Lord, and the First Head-On Confrontation with Evil King Building

Demon King Castle.

Cao Yaxuan and the others all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xu Lang return safely.

As long as nothing happened, everything was fine.

"Xu Lang, this is..." Han Zhixiu frowned in confusion, her gaze fixed on Bai Ling.

Although Yan Xiaoli and Jiang Xiaowen were also present, the obvious center of attention was Bai Ling, a girl they had never seen before, whose aura was exceptionally ethereal and light.

"This is Bai Ling, promising material in the Mad King Building, our future companion." Xu Lang patted Bai Ling on the shoulder.

Bai Ling's cheeks flushed, and she bowed. "Hello everyone, I am Bai Ling, from the Gu World."

Sherry nodded in realization. "You're the foreign player who came through the Gate of Ten Thousand Lies, right?"

"Yes." Bai Ling nodded.

"Alright, alright, enough of that!" Cao Yaxuan could guess with half a thought that this was another addition to the harem. Right now, she only cared about the game. "Xu Lang, when are we going to fight our way out?"

"Fight our way out?" Xu Lang couldn't help but laugh. "Who said anything about fighting our way out?"

Wang Yazhi's expression tightened. "Xu Lang, what exactly is your plan? Stop being so cryptic."

"This is an 'Evil King Invitation Letter.' Once the Mad King Building loses, we'll switch allegiances and directly develop in the Evil King Building." Xu Lang smiled as he produced an invitation letter.

The women's expressions shifted as they pulled up the information, only to find that it was indeed a genuine Evil King Invitation Letter!

Moreover, this invitation letter could invite an entire dormitory of players!

"Damn, Xu Lang, when did you get your hands on this thing?!" Cao Yaxuan exclaimed in shock.

Xu Lang smiled. "Secret."

Dormitory buildings could be negotiated with.

This Evil King Building invitation letter was no ordinary one!

It was "personally crafted" by the Evil King Building itself!

- The middleman was the Evil Dragon!

Xu Lang had contacted the Evil Dragon through Faceless, then had the Evil Dragon relay a signal of surrender to the Evil King Building.

Wang Yazhi's expression tightened. "Aren't we Mad King players unable to change our player identity?"

"That's only while the Mad King Building is still alive. Once it dies, there's no problem." Xu Lang said with a faint smile. "The Evil King Building has no migration restrictions. Once we become Evil King Building players, we can transfer to another wellness building and lie flat from then on."

Everyone was amazed.

So that's how it could be played!

"Xu Lang, you just can't give up on lying flat, can you?" Cao Yaxuan laughed.

Tong Qi asked with concern, "What about the Guardian Spirits and Huihui and the others?"

Han Zhixiu frowned, feeling that things weren't that simple.

Demon King Castle was so rare, and it contained so many Core Facilities. Was he really willing to just give it all up?

"I have my own methods for that. You don't need to worry." Xu Lang replied.

Mary sighed in admiration. "Master, you've actually become one of the cooperative parties."

For a player to negotiate terms with a dormitory building, they generally needed to be at the level of an Acting Dorm Owner, yet Xu Lang had managed to reach agreements with other dormitory buildings by taking advantage of the Building Wars opportunity.

This was going from a low-level employee to a partner! That was even more valuable than doubling one's combat power!

"Keep it low-key." Xu Lang smiled and summoned the black vortex gate. "Alright, you all go to the Demon Box World first. All we have to do now is wait for the Building Wars to end, and then we can leave this cesspit called the Mad King Building."

"Alright, alright." Cao Yaxuan nodded repeatedly, saying reluctantly, "I'm actually going to miss the Mad King Building a little."

That was what she said, but her actions were anything but slow. She stepped into the Demon Box World in two or three strides.

Unless one had a masochistic streak, no one would truly develop feelings for the Mad King Building.

The malice of the Mad King Building was simply too intense. Cao Yaxuan and the others weren't fools either. With all the information on dormitory buildings the Neighborhood Committee had collected, they knew exactly what kind of place the Mad King Building really was.

It was a great demonic den that preyed on players endlessly, relying on the fact that players couldn't migrate!

The fact that Xu Lang could think of escaping the Mad King Building during the Building Wars was truly admirable.

After everyone else had left, Yan Xiaoli quietly asked, "Lang Ge, do we have to leave too?"

Thump, thump, thump...

That was the sound of Yan Xiaoli's heart pounding violently!

Listening to Xu Lang's conversation with Cao Yaxuan and the others, she felt like she was listening to a storybook tale.

Lang Ge was actually plotting against the Mad King Building? And his plan was about to succeed!

That was incredible!

"No need." Xu Lang shook his head.

Yan Xiaoli was about to leave, but when she heard Xu Lang say that, her body suddenly froze in place.

"Lang Ge..." Jiang Xiaowen tightened her grip on Bai Ling's hand, equally taken aback.

"The Mad King Building doesn't seem willing to let us leave!" Xu Lang stared at the black vortex gate with a smile, a hint of mocking coldness seeping into his tone.

[Nightmare Eye - Contaminated Tale Portal: Passing through this gate will lead to the Mad King Building's Underground Palace...]

"What do you mean, sir?" Yan Xiaoli swallowed hard.

She suddenly felt a chill. The chill was everywhere, wrapped in the surrounding air, burrowing into her lungs and flowing through every limb!

"Since it won't let us go, then we won't leave." Xu Lang took Bai Ling's hand, smooth as solidified cream, and slowly walked over to sit on the sofa.

Yan Xiaoli and Jiang Xiaowen quickly followed.

Neither of them could explain why, but both felt an immense threat lurking all around them!

"Lang Ge, we're going to lose..." Yan Xiaoli stared at the surveillance screen, unable to find peace of mind.

Nine-tenths of the players were already tainted with red light!

Only some of the higher-ups from the three major dormitory buildings hadn't reached the top yet.

Once they also reached the summit, the Mad King Building would be directly judged as defeated!

"Winning and losing is normal. In a True King Duel, anything can happen. Even a dormitory building can fall into traps, get schemed against, and lose." Xu Lang said with a sigh.

In an instant, the malice surged explosively!

In the air of the Demon King Castle, it was as if some invisible colossal beast was roaring!

Suddenly, a surge of overwhelming force erupted from Bai Ling's body, violently wrenching her hand free from Xu Lang's grasp.

She ran madly toward the exit of the Demon King Castle.

Just moments ago, she had received another mission from the Mad King Building, and it had even given her an almost invincible BUFF!

"Bai Ling."

A faint call came from behind her.

Bai Ling turned around and saw Xu Lang holding a corpse by his side!

"Brother!" Bai Ling stared at the corpse in disbelief, her body rooted to the spot.

Xu Lang said calmly, "Don't listen to the Mad King Building's deceptions. I will resurrect your brother right now. Whatever the Mad King Building can do, I can do too!"

As he spoke, he took out a talisman and pressed it onto the Snake Lord's forehead.

Earlier, he had used Nightmare Coins to create a Talisman of the Dead's Awakening, which could bring the dead back to life for one month.

Now was the time to put it to use!
