Yu Ning stretched out his hand and the ring on his finger slowly elongated until it touched the ground.

The moment it touched the fleshy object, it started twitching and immediately wrapped itself around the ring and emitted a viscous liquid.

When it discovered that the ring was just a light, the fleshy object loosened its hold and slowly changed back to a long strip of flesh that quietly lay on the ground.

When this last mouthful of slime was discharged, the fleshy object seemed to have lost energy and never moved again.

Everyone at the scene saw this scene and they were disgusted, especially the three girls who survived the disaster. They sucked in a cold breath and hugged each other in relief and fear.

“What the hell is this …… thing? It’s disgusting.” A girl muttered.

No one could answer her question.

Yu Ning used the ring to push the piece of flesh away from everyone, before turning to look at Liu Lin: “Where did the key come from?”

As soon as Liu Lin heard Yu Ning mention the key, her face changed slightly. She instinctively put the key behind her back and looked at Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia warily.

Liu Lin refused to answer, but her companions answered bluntly, “We found it together, but she walked in the front and got the key first, she couldn’t give it up after that.”

“What does the key do? Open a door and take you wherever you want to go?” Yu Ning asked again.

The three girls' eyes went wide and Liu Lin couldn’t help but ask, “How do you know?”

“I guessed.” Yu Ning said, “What are the restrictions on using the process, besides consuming your physical strength?”

Liu Lin looked at Yu Ning in amazement.

Ji Mingxia walked over to Yu Ning and faced the three girls. “If we wanted to attack you and snatch your things, we would have acted long ago. Why would we wait until now? No matter how powerful that key is, can it be more powerful than Yu Ning?”

Yu Ning wasn’t secretive when he used the ring and on hearing Ji Mingxia’s words, the three girls’ gazes went to Yu Ning’s hand.

They had seen the power of the ring with their own eyes, and the three naturally wouldn’t doubt Yu Ning’s strength.

Soon, they noticed that Ji Mingxia also had a ring on his hand.

The three girls’ expressions changed slightly, and one of them couldn’t help but look at Ji Mingxia curiously and said, “Do both of you have supernatural powers, and you appear to save people whenever there are supernatural events?”

“No. Such people do exist, but not us. Yu Ning and I are just ordinary students so don’t count on us too much.” Ji Mingxia said, “If you guys don’t want to talk about it, we won’t force it, let’s all be well.”

With that, Ji Mingxia turned and  intended to leave with Yu Ning.

The girls panicked on the spot: “Don’t, don’t, Xiaoqi is still inside!”

“Liu Lin, don’t hide it, we are all in the same boat now, hurry up and say it.” One girl also urged.

Liu Lin looked at Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia and whispered, “This space is locked, you can’t leave.”

Ji Mingxia looked back at her.

Liu Lin wasn’t secretive anymore and briefly told them about their experiences in the past few days.

On the first day, they took a car with Yu Ning Ji Mingxia to Funan county. They put their luggage away, and went to a location near the hotel the next day, hoping for a chance encounter with Ke Chengxuan when he came down for breakfast.

Unexpectedly, an accident occurred before they could see their idol.

“It was not yet dawn at the time and there were few people at the time but those 24-hour convenience stores, and the front desk on the first floor of the hotel were lit, in addition, there were people occasionally walking back and forth in the area. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, as if a large number of things were rushing over with the wind. The wind was so strong that we couldn’t help closing our eyes." Liu Lin said.

By the time their sight was restored, the world before them had changed.

The buildings were still the same, and the lights were on, but the people had all disappeared.

At first, Liu Lin and others thought they were overthinking, perhaps those people left temporarily. However, dawn came but there was no one in the surrounding area. It was as if they were the remaining living people, Liu Lin and the others were suddenly scared.

Although they chased stars in a frenzy, they were just teenage girls and had never encountered such an eerie thing.

They had been on a plane all night and did not sleep well. On seeing such an eerie scene, the girls immediately retreated, ready to go back to a safe place first.

“At this time, I saw the shadow of a key floating in the air. I was curious so I reached out and brought it down.” Liu Lin said, lowering her head to look at the key in her hand, “As soon as I got it, I felt close to it, like it was destined to be in my possession. Xiao Qi forgot her room card and we were unable to enter the room. At that time, I got a feeling that with this key, we could go straight in. I couldn’t help but try it and to our surprise, it worked.”

Liu Lin looked at Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning and said, “It is like a free door that can take me anywhere I want to go, but I feel very tired whenever I use the key and I have to first rest and recover my energy. The specific recovery time is related to the door opened. In addition, there is no way of getting out of the place that was forcibly opened by the key for about one hour.”

Ji Mingxia immediately said, “You mean, we are now trapped on the first floor of this hotel, and we can’t get out for at least an hour?”

Liu Lin nodded: “We discovered this after experimenting in the past few days but you guys are different, maybe you can get out.”

Ji Mingxia looked at the hotel’s first floor lobby, and then looked at the door leading to the school classroom behind him, not understanding how all this happened.

A gust of wind blew, and the whole area of Funan County was enveloped in a mysterious force?

Liu Lin and others were originally ordinary people, but picked up a mysterious item while walking around, moreover a key to any door?

Could mysterious items be found that easily nowadays?

“It’s feeding off you, use it less in the future.” Yu Ning said to Liu Lin.

Everyone looked at him in surprise, not understanding what he meant.

Finally it was Ji Mingxia who asked, “Feeding, what do you mean?”

“By using a person as a medium, it can bring out its power, this key’s ability is very passive so it needs to find a master in order to play its role.” Yu Ning said, “After entering a space, you are blocked for an hour, you can meditate for an hour and leave if it is a safe place, but what if it is a dangerous area?”

The girls thought back to the black shadow and their faces became pale.

Before opening the door, Liu Lin wanted to go to Ke Chengxuan's location, which was the second floor of the hotel.

However, she opened the door and came to a school classroom.

No one saw what that black shadow really was, and they would have died if not for Yu Ning’s timely help.

That is to say, the key deliberately led them there, and wanted them to die.

Thinking of this, the two girls looked at the key in horror, and Liu Lin’s face was also pale.

However, she did not throw the key away and still held it tightly in her hand.

Seeing that both Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia intended to enter the classroom, the two girls hurriedly exclaimed with anxiety, “Where are you going? Don’t leave us behind!"

Yu Ning had finished what he had to say and would not give a response, but Ji Mingxia heard the trembling in their voices and did not have the heart to ignore them. He turned back and said, “We’re going in to see what’s going on, you guys can stay outside and leave when the time comes.”

After saying that, he and Yu Ning walked in.

Once Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning left, the entire hotel lobby seemed to become cold and eerie.

The light from the classroom shone through the seams of the door and the dim red glow made the people who were already anxious become even more anxious and fearful.

The two girls had originally disagreed with Liu Lin because of the key, and now with Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia’s departure, the two hugged each other and hid in the corner, unconsciously staying away from Liu Lin.

Liu Lin felt their estrangement and her face became twisted for a moment. She held the key tightly and quietly stood in the corner with her head lowered.

“Wei Zhen, didn’t that thing move just now?” At this moment, a girl pointed to the doorway and said.

The girl named Wei Zhen looked over, only to see the fleshy object lying by the edge of the door frame.

Her face changed slightly and she asked with uncertainty, “Was that thing there?”

“I don’t know …… I don’t remember.” The girl shuddered, “Liu Lin, Liu Lin …… was it in that location earlier?”

Liu Lin stood there with her head bowed and did not respond.

The red light fell on her body, making her entire body look pensively stiff.

Just then, the fleshy object twitched slightly and jumps closer to the two girls.

The two girls screamed, no longer caring about anything else, and rushed towards the classroom in unison.

Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia had walked through the door and came into the classroom. They were not only greeted by the red light but also a rotten smell.

The two followed the smell and finally found the source in the corner of the back row of the classroom. It was a completely disfigured corpse.

Dark red blood snaked out along the floor, the body’s head was missing and the area from the chest to the abdomen was opened up. The internal organs were in a mess, as if something had gnawed on it.

Judging from the blood, it had been dead for a day or two.

Fortunately, it was winter so only the stench floated out. It would have been festering with worms if it was summer.

Although Ji Mingxia now had a lot of experience, he was still shocked by the wretched corpse and reflexively hid beside Yu Ning.

Yu Ning was not affected, he even bent down to take a closer look at the clothes on the deceased: “He is wearing work clothes, it’s a hotel staff member.”

“A hotel staff member died in the classroom?” Ji Mingxia said.

Just after his words, a loud bang came from behind, followed by the girls who rushed in with frightened expressions.

“Help, help, help!” The girls screamed while rushing to Yu Ning and Ji Mingxia.

Ji Mingxia turned his head in time to see a black shadow running out of nowhere and trailing behind them.

He was startled and was about to warn them when the disfigured corpse on the ground, as if stimulated by something, suddenly wriggled up and pounced on Ji Mingxia.

“Mingxia!” Yu Ning immediately reached to block it, and the ring stopped the corpse. However, it was at that moment when the girls and the black shadow also rushed over.

The red emergency light flickered a few times, and suddenly went out at that critical moment.

Ji Mingxia happened to see the black shadow’s appearance before the lights went out.

It turned out to be a man, covered with long, thin fleshy filaments.

As he ran, the fleshy filaments wriggled back and forth, like tentacles of a giant alien octopus quickly hunting for food.
