Listening to the strange sound coming from outside the door again.
Fang Cheng hesitated for a moment, then got up from the bed and walked quietly to the dormitory door.
Then, he peered cautiously through the peephole.
Pat—
Pat—
The sound gradually approached, as if a hammer was slowly and heavily striking his heart.
Fang Cheng held his breath, just staring intently through the concave lens of the peephole at the narrow space it revealed.
After several seconds, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he took a quiet gasp of air.
He finally saw what was making the noise in the dark corridor.
It was... an extremely bizarre figure.
The moonlight spilled in weakly, revealing a vague humanoid silhouette.
As the figure drew closer, its entire form became visible.
The skin was naked, a dim green, with patches of scales covering the back.
Its head was large, with eyes bulging like those of a fish, and its limbs bore webbing akin to that of a frog.
