Elevator Survival: Master of Every Floor

“Oh right, I should apologize to the original owner.”

Lin Feng dragged the female corpse out from under the bed.

“My beauty, I’m really sorry. I borrowed your mattress for a bit, thank you so much!”

“Ding, host has triggered a random quest. Does the host want to fulfill the lingering regret of the red-clothed fierce ghost?

Rewards for completion: One huge leather backpack.”

He could even trigger a random quest!

Lin Feng glanced at the elevator closing time, there were still forty minutes left, enough time to accept the quest. Why not do it!

So Lin Feng chose to accept the quest.

“Ding! Random quest, the regret of the red-clothed fierce ghost: In 5 minutes, the groom’s family who is holding a ghost wedding will appear on this floor. Please kill them all and burn the corpses.”

After hearing the quest requirements, Lin Feng let out a sigh of relief. It didn’t seem too difficult, and there were no ghosts either. He could probably handle it with just his crossbow, better not waste bullets.

Lin Feng thought for a bit, then decided to hide under the bed, also pulling the female corpse under with him.

After quietly waiting for 5 minutes, two people appeared before Lin Feng’s eyes, a man and a woman. They were currently holding the corpse of a man dressed in groom’s attire.

These must be the quest targets.

Lin Feng loaded his crossbow arrow and took aim, shooting!

At such a close distance, using just a crossbow, if he couldn’t even hit them he might as well bash his head in and die.

The man who was shot in the neck covered his unceasingly bleeding throat, unable to utter a word as he fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, the woman beside him was immediately frightened. Just as she was about to scream for help, Lin Feng’s crossbow arrow arrived as promised.

After killing two people in a row, Lin Feng’s mindset had stabilized. Unlike the previous headshot with the handgun, it was really too disgusting, with brains splattering everywhere. A normal person would be a little taken aback at first.

It was also possible the scene was just less gory.

Next was burning the corpses. Lin Feng looked around.

“There’s ready fuel right here!”

The room was lit with many oil lamps, likely to create a festive atmosphere. Lin Feng directly knocked over all the lamps and poured the oil over the corpses, instantly igniting a raging fire.

“Quest completed!”

Lin Feng clapped his hands, then returned to the elevator. But at this time, the system had not yet given the prompt for quest completion. He’d probably have to burn the corpses completely before getting the reward.

This time’s gains were truly not bad. Even without the system reward, Lin Feng was very satisfied.

He had used one ghost-warding talisman, and obtained two gold coins and a blanket.

The talisman was likely the most valuable, its purpose being to allow the survivor to kill the red-clothed fierce ghost.

After spreading out the blanket and mattress, Lin Feng’s bed was finally decent.

Lying down comfortably, he could quietly wait for the quest completion.

There were still over twenty minutes before the elevator doors would close.

“System, if the elevator closes before the bodies are fully burned, I won’t get the reward right?”

“Ding, do not worry host, please be patient.”

The system’s words made Lin Feng think of many things.

Could time continue to flow in the floors even after the survivors left?

Lin Feng suddenly had a bold guess – each floor was like its own separate world!

Recalling the noises he’d heard in the classroom floor before, Lin Feng felt his speculation was likely correct.

But even knowing each floor was an independent world, what could he do? He still couldn’t leave.

“Might as well take the health pellet first.”

Looking at the pitch black medicine pellet in his hand, Lin Feng stuffed it into his mouth without a second thought.

“Hm?”

“Hmmm?!”

As soon as the pellet entered Lin Feng’s mouth and touched his taste buds, his expression contorted as if wearing an agony mask.

“Ugh!”

“Damn, so bitter! And astringent too!”

“You damn system, this pellet isn’t made of shit is it????”

Although Lin Feng wanted to spit it out, he was unwilling to waste it. So he hastily drank several mouthfuls of water to force the pellet down.

“Other people’s pellets dissolve instantly, with fruity flavors if not sweet. Yours is as awful to eat as actual shit!”

Lin Feng retched slightly, then focused on sensing changes in his body. If there were no effects, he’d have to take the system to task.

“Ding, please keep an open mind host, this system would never scam you.”

“With your word, brother here can rest assured.”

Lin Feng nodded, then waited.

One minute later…
Two minutes later…
Five minutes later…
Ten minutes later…

“Ding, host quest completed. Reward: one huge leather backpack.”

“What about the changes to my body? I don’t feel anything different?”

Lin Feng clenched his fists, feeling as weak as ever.

“Ding, please do some push-ups host, and you’ll notice the difference from before.”

“I’ll trust you this once.”

Lin Feng put the leather backpack aside, then started doing push-ups.

One hour later.

“Holy shit! I’m this badass now?”

Previously, Lin Feng doing a dozen standard push-ups was already quite good. This time he actually did them non-stop for a whole hour! And didn’t feel tired at all.

At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly felt his stomach seemed hard. Reaching to touch it, he immediately teared up.

His 4-pack abs! They were finally back!

“Ding, please keep exercising host, the health pellet will continue enhancing your physique.”

“What a treasure! System, you didn’t lie to me!”

After confirming he wasn’t scammed, Lin Feng picked up the leather backpack to examine it.

“Doesn’t seem that big.”

“WTF?”

As soon as Lin Feng’s hand touched the backpack, 5 inventory slots appeared in his vision.

“Ding, this is a spatial backpack. Each slot can store one item, up to 200 kg of that item.”

A godly item!

This was practically a godly item!

Lin Feng immediately stuffed the wood and scrap metal into the backpack. If he had obtained this on the recycling center floor, would he ever lack for metal??

He could fill all 5 slots with a ton of scrap metal!

After putting on the leather backpack, Lin Feng didn’t feel any weight at all, only the backpack’s own light weight.

“What a treasure!”

Lin Feng sighed feelingly, then carefully put away the backpack. Next he took out a can of beef and heartily wolfed it down.

He had to say, the taste of this can was quite good, perfectly seasoned. Lin Feng ate every last bit of soup and meat until he was full.

Even a little bloated. After eating his fill, Lin Feng exercised for another two hours, all the way until past 3 AM before going to bed.

He slept until 11:30 AM the next morning.
