I Play the Horror World as a Simulation Game

"What's she carrying?" Princess Yao Yao whispered.

Qin Nuo didn't answer.

Black Rose walked straight to the door of room 304 and knocked.

An old lady with a hunched back opened the door, holding a small ghost with dull gray skin.

"Grandma Li, I found the toys your grandson lost." Black Rose's frosty face melted into a sweet smile, like a friendly girl next door.

"Thank you so much, dear. It's rare to see such a kind-hearted girl like you."

"Xiao Yuan, aren't you going to thank your sister?"

The little ghost, holding his beloved toys, danced with joy. "Thank you, sister. You're so nice."

"Be good, and don't be so naughty next time, throwing things around."

After the door closed, Black Rose's smile vanished, her face returning to its cold demeanor, like a face-changing act in a Beijing opera.

Qin Nuo glanced at Princess Yao Yao. "Learn from her; that's how you complete a task."

Princess Yao Yao pursed her lips, saying nothing.

Black Rose approached, scrutinizing Qin Nuo. "I heard you completed a task for the landlord?"

Qin Nuo checked the time. "I'm on my second one now."

"How about a deal? Win another game from the landlord and get something back for me. Name your price." Black Rose, evidently informed by Cobra, crossed her arms and pushed out her chest.

"Not interested. Money doesn't appeal to me."

Qin Nuo shook his head without hesitation.

"Think about it. If it doesn't work out, I'll come to your room tonight for a proper chat?" Black Rose suddenly flashed a seductive smile, alluring.

You had to admit, this woman was a master at changing faces.

"What for? To mooch a meal? I'm broke." Qin Nuo spread his hands.

Black Rose's face darkened, then she smiled calmly. "Since you're not interested, forget it. I wasn't that keen anyway."

With that, she turned and left.

Princess Yao Yao stuck out her tongue, muttering, "Such a flirt."

"Fing hell! Lost everything again, damn it!"

"That damn woman must be hiding money. If I find it, she won't get away with it!"

The cursing voice echoed from the hallway; the scumbag ghost from 403 was back, filled with malice and seething anger.

Black Rose glanced at him.

The scumbag ghost noticed Black Rose too, his gaze lingering on her alluring figure, a lewd grin on his grotesque face. "Nice-looking chick, which room are you in?"

Black Rose's eyes glinted coldly, showing disgust, and she walked away without a word.

The ghosts in the apartment were key to completing tasks, and players had to avoid provoking them as much as possible.

Princess Yao Yao, clutching her snacks, hid fearfully behind Qin Nuo.

The scumbag ghost leered at Black Rose's backside, licking his lips with a chuckle, but as he turned to go upstairs, he noticed a pair of eyes fixed on him.

The scumbag ghost glared fiercely at Qin Nuo. "Brat, look again, and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

Qin Nuo said nothing. As the scumbag ghost turned his head, Qin Nuo's right hand revealed a blood eye, with corpse spots spreading across his arm.

Then, he lunged at the back of the scumbag ghost's head!

The scumbag ghost barely sensed it before his head was slammed to the ground.

The floor cracked, and the scumbag ghost howled, struggling madly.

With a flick of his arm, Qin Nuo tossed the scumbag ghost into the hallway, pulling out two human bone nails. Before the ghost could get up, Qin Nuo slammed the nails into its skull with his palm.

Instantly, the scumbag ghost let out a piercing scream, white eyes rolling back, collapsing to the ground.

This all happened within seconds, leaving Black Rose and Princess Yao Yao stunned.

What was this guy doing?

This was a resident of the apartment; did he really intend to kill him just for a few insults?

Black Rose, shocked, also noticed Qin Nuo's arm, her heart pounding. "Half-Ghost!"

Wasn't this his first time in a horror game? When did he merge with a ghost?

Ignoring the two women's dazed expressions, Qin Nuo dragged the half-dead scumbag ghost towards room 301.

But soon, Qin Nuo realized something was wrong.

As he got closer to room 301, the scumbag ghost grew heavier, ghost aura pouring from its orifices.

Eventually, the floor was dragged into a deep groove!

Qin Nuo couldn't take another step; the scumbag ghost in his hand felt like a meteor, unbearably heavy!

"What's going on?" Qin Nuo, sweating profusely, stared at the scumbag ghost in astonishment.

"I told you it wouldn't work," the Blood-Eyed Ghost said calmly.

The two human bone nails in its skull were pushed out, clattering to the floor!

The half-dead scumbag ghost suddenly opened its eyes, unleashing terrifying strength, breaking free from Qin Nuo's grip, and retreating to the hallway.

The scumbag ghost glared at Qin Nuo but seemed wary of something, turning to run.

In the hallway, the ghost aura dissipated.

Black Rose and Princess Yao Yao looked at Qin Nuo, too shocked to speak.

"Just a minor grudge," Qin Nuo casually explained to them, then left.

Back on the fourth floor, the door to 403 was smashed open, the inside a mess, with many things smashed to pieces.

The wife emerged, covered in blood, unsure if it was hers or her husband's.

She looked at Qin Nuo, asking softly, "How did it go?"

"It was a bit challenging."

"I'll think of something else," Qin Nuo said, noticing the knife in the wife's hand, guessing she had dealt with her husband again.

But clearly, it was all in vain.

Returning to his room, exhausted and reeking, Qin Nuo decided to take a shower.

After washing his face, Qin Nuo asked, "What happened earlier?"

"That was an Obsession Ghost," the Blood-Eyed Ghost replied.

"The harder you push, the less likely it is to work."

"What's an Obsession Ghost?" Qin Nuo asked.

"When it died, it had immense fear of room 301, becoming a vengeful ghost. That fear turned into an obsession."

"Room 301 is its obsession zone. Forcing it will only increase its resistance."

"Unless you can make it enter room 301 on its own!"

Qin Nuo pondered.

"You can't handle this task, give it up."

"Not necessarily."

Qin Nuo responded, though it was indeed a headache.

After his shower, Qin Nuo emerged from his room.

Leaning back in his chair, he continued to think.

Moments later, an idea struck him, and Qin Nuo opened the system toolbar.

Suddenly, Qin Nuo's eyes lit up with a plan.

Getting dressed, Qin Nuo prepared to leave.

"Where are you going?" the Blood-Eyed Ghost asked.

"To continue the task, of course."

"Just to be clear, if you need my help again, it'll cost you," the Blood-Eyed Ghost said, licking its lips.

"I won't need you."

"Tonight, you just watch the show."

Qin Nuo smiled slightly, then left the room.

After leaving room 404, Qin Nuo didn't notice that the door to 403 also opened, a pair of eyes filled with resentment watching him leave...
