In front of him, a gigantic body like a semi-transparent mass of mist, with countless long arms like spider legs, filled the entire corridor.
Its tangled hair covered its face, accompanied by faces screaming miserably.
Its body was bizarre, but what was even more terrifying was... Rover could sense the malice coming from it.
Incredibly terrifying, incredibly chaotic, as if it were a giant spider stitched together from the bodies of countless people.
Woo! Woo! Woo!
A shrill sound came from its mouth. Because Rover's [Spirit] was quite high, he was not affected much by that sound, but Nanoe and Selina were nearly knocked out by it.
"Get into the room first!" Rover shouted.
Nanoe and Selina truly did not want to leave, but they also did not want to hold Rover back, so they immediately rushed into the room.
Rover frowned, staring at the strange creature in front of him as his gaze gradually turned gloomy and sharp.
Even though he did not know how strong that creature was, if he did not kill it, then...
[Ding! Congratulations, you have found the Boss of this phase, the Chaotic Wraith. If you kill it, you will receive a special reward. If you run, it will destroy your door and follow you forever.]
"Motherfucker!" Rover could not hold back and cursed. Is this what 'congratulations' means? This was forcing him to face that bastard creature, otherwise he would die.
If he ran, not only would he die, Nanoe and Selina would die too.
"Damn it!" Rover muttered a curse, but he had no other choice.
He flicked his hand, the chain coiled around his arm like a snake, the other end pointing straight at the Chaotic Wraith.
"Shoot!"
WHOOSH!
The chain recoiled like a spring, then shot toward the wraith at a terrifying speed like a bullet.
Earlier, when his Spirit was only 29 points, he had already been able to fire the chain at arrow speed.
Now, with his Spirit at 45 points, he could fire this chain at a speed close to a bullet.
The chain was compressed, only one meter long, like an arrow, but its speed was nearly twice that of an arrow.
SMASH!
It instantly pierced the wraith's shoulder.
GRAA!!!
The Chaotic Wraith roared. One of its long arms suddenly reached out and grabbed Rover's chain.
He frowned, not worried at all. With a slight movement of his hand, the chain immediately extended from 1 meter to 5 meters, wrapping tightly around the wraith's arm.
Clink clink! Clink clink!
The sound of metal links colliding rang out sharply, but Rover kept his focus on the wraith's arm.
The Chaotic Wraith used another arm, trying to pull the chain off. Its terrifying strength loosened the chain.
Rover frowned, gritted his teeth, and clenched his hand. The chain immediately tightened around its arm even more, and then...
BAM!
Its arm exploded, turning into countless streams of murky white smoke, then dissipating into the air.
Woo! Woo! Woo!
The Chaotic Wraith screamed miserably. Its body trembled violently, the faces and the arms and legs on its body flailing like bizarre tentacles.
It retreated a little, but Rover did not give it time to stabilize.
He flicked his hand, and the chain instantly wrapped around its neck, then tightened. No sound came from its mouth, but the faces on its body screamed, the piercing noise making Rover a little dizzy.
Suddenly, the Chaotic Wraith lunged at him.
"Damn it!" Rover shouted under his breath, then hurriedly retreated while using all his strength to tighten around its neck.
Whoosh!
At that moment, from the Chaotic Wraith's mouth, a long hand like a snake shot out and grabbed Rover's ankle.
"What?!"
Rover was startled, but he did not have time to react. He immediately fell to the ground.
The distance was only two meters. The Chaotic Wraith easily crossed it, those long legs like spider legs lunging toward him.
Rover gritted his teeth, trying to use all his strength to tighten around its neck, but it was useless. It could still endure it.
But if he let those legs catch him, then he would definitely die.
Woo! Woo!
The faces on the Chaotic Wraith's body screamed with excitement, the sound shrill and brimming with evil.
Suddenly...
A shadow swept past Rover's head, shooting toward the wraith.
"That is..." Rover was shocked. He immediately recognized it as the corpse of the girl Leng Yan had used earlier.
Thud!
Her corpse fell into the Chaotic Wraith's body, making its body tremble violently, like a stone dropped into a calm lake.
However, the faces on its body shrieked fiercely. Those faces twisted, showing disgust and discomfort to the extreme.
Rover could see the girl's corpse slowly wither like a rotting branch at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What are you waiting for?" Leng Yan's voice rang out from behind, snapping him back to his senses.
At that moment, he focused all his strength on the chain, trying to tighten around the Chaotic Wraith's neck.
Woo! Woo!
Woo! Woo!
The enraged faces screamed at the same time, the sound as terrifying as nails being driven into his eardrums.
Rover gritted his teeth, doing everything he could to control the chain.
The Chaotic Wraith used its two long arms to grab the chain, as if trying to tear it off.
"Damn it!" Rover felt the terrifying strength coming from the Chaotic Wraith. He had the feeling he was about to be unable to hold on anymore.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, two sharp spikes shot from behind Rover toward the chain. They were about to pierce into the links, forming a sturdy lock that would prevent the chain from being pulled loose any further.
He was startled and glanced at Leng Yan.
She smiled and said, "Don't look at me. Helping you is also helping myself. If that monster kills you, I'll be the next victim."
Rover nodded. He clenched his teeth, then...𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
WOO!!! WOO!!! WOO!!!
The Chaotic Wraith screamed. Its scream turned into countless sound waves that thundered outward, so terrifying that blood even poured from Rover's nose.
But he did not give up, because he knew... once that chain broke, he would definitely die.
"Damn it! GYAA!!!" Rover roared in fury, and right after that...
BOOM!!!!
The Chaotic Wraith's neck exploded. Its head turned into countless streams of smoke, but they did not disperse. Instead, they became smoky tentacles that lunged toward Rover.
"Tch!" Rover clicked his tongue. Luckily, his physique had reached 29 points, so he could dodge quickly.
But when he saw those tentacles did not stop and continued lunging toward Leng Yan, he swung his hand, and the chain shot toward them.
Whoosh!
A sharp whistling sound rang out. The chain flew again at bullet-like speed, accurately piercing through all of those smoky tentacles.
Leng Yan was somewhat surprised, but she did not show fear or worry. Instead, she licked her lips, looking at Rover with a hint of interest.
Rover did not pay attention to her gaze. He turned his head, his hand twitching as he reached forward.
WHOOSH!
The chain shot again toward the Chaotic Wraith's headless body, which was convulsing violently.
The chain was like a long spear, continuously piercing through its body.
WOO!! WOO!!!
Each time the chain pierced through the Chaotic Wraith's body, it left behind an enormous hole, accompanied by the miserable screams of the faces on its body.
When its body became faint, as if it were about to dissipate, it immediately crawled backward, trying to flee.
"Trying to run? Too late!" Rover of course knew what it was trying to do. He immediately controlled the chain, destroying its limbs.
WOO!!!
The Chaotic Wraith let out a miserable scream, then collapsed onto the ground. Its body slowly turned into murky white smoke and dissipated into the air.
"Ha... ha... ha..." Rover panted. He also collapsed onto the ground, feeling as if his mind was about to collapse.
He raised his hand, touching his nose and ears. Blood was already flowing from both because of the Chaotic Wraith's horrific screaming, but fortunately, he was still okay.
Rover leaned his back against the wall and let out a sigh.
He truly had not expected that someone like him, carrying a Rank SSS Class, still could not easily clear this game.
He had even almost died.
That was enough to realize... just how terrifying high-level Survivors were.
While he was thinking, a system notification appeared in front of him.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully slain the Chaotic Wraith and obtained a Wraith Treasure Chest. The reward has been placed in your Backpack.]
