A virus known as Nightmare broke out across the world.
After falling asleep, those infected were drawn into perilous nightmare games. They could only wake up by clearing the game.
Tang Jingle was terminally ill and bedridden all day, with little time left to live. Unlucky enough to catch the Nightmare virus, he entered the game in his frail condition.
All the players looked at the delicate, sickly beauty with pity, certain he wouldn't survive for even two hours.
Who knew that just five minutes into the game, he would run into the most vicious and terrifying ghost boss in the instance?
The players fled in every direction, dropping like flies one after another.
Tang Jingle had only taken two steps before he weakly collapsed to the ground, spitting blood.
As the monster drew closer, Tang Jingle huddled up in terror, trembling and weeping.
But the monster raised a hand to gently wipe away the tears at the corner of his eye, tenderly gathered him into its arms, kissed his lips, and licked the blood from them. Finally, it personally sent him out of the nightmare world.
As they parted, it would even nibble his earlobe and whisper tenderly, “Darling, see you tomorrow night.”
Tang Jingle had a secret: he had entered the nightmare game with a System. As long as he activated the “pitiful and adorable” attribute buff, he could attract ghost bosses.
[Physical contact with a ghost boss: lifespan increased by one week.]
[Lip contact with a ghost boss: lifespan increased by one month.]
[□□ exchange with a ghost boss: lifespan increased by one year.]
Hearing the notifications that his lifespan kept increasing, Tang Jingle snuggled into the monster's arms, trembling with excitement and almost laughing out loud on the spot.
[Lifespan has reached its maximum and can no longer be increased.]
Tang Jingle had finally squeezed every last drop out of the ghost boss. After someone sent him out of the nightmare game, he immediately had the System eliminate the Nightmare virus.
Urgent global notice: For unknown reasons, the Nightmare virus has rapidly worsened and mutated. It can now spread over long distances and drag anyone within a hundred-meter radius of an infected person directly into the nightmare world.
Tang Jingle had just recovered from his illness and thought he could finally get a good night's sleep. But he woke with a start in the middle of the night and found a “person” beside his bed.
The other's unfathomably deep eyes gazed at him quietly. “Darling, why didn't you come last night?”
