But even so, there was no way to avoid it; the spiritual power still dropped.

"It seems they must have violated the hotel's rules and been targeted, but this rule shouldn't be fatal."

Seeing that all three were in the same situation, Qiao Peimu basically confirmed that they had violated the hotel's rules together.

It's just unknown what hotel rule they violated exactly.

Judging by how their spiritual power is declining, although this isn't an instant-death rule, it won't take long before they're doomed.

"Think carefully about where you all went and what you did yesterday. Make sure it's something you all did together."

Zhang Yi rubbed his temples, feeling the situation troubling, and then spoke up.

Now that it's come to this, they can only ask them to see if they can find some clues.

"So what do we do? With our spiritual power dropping like this, if that thing comes again tonight, I don't think I can hold on..."

Lin Yun looked troubled upon hearing this.

Luckily, today they didn't need to go into the restaurant. If they had to go into the restaurant today, he feared he wouldn't last the day.

"I'll think of something."

They were all his own subordinates, so Zhang Yi couldn't just ignore them.

However, at this moment, he doesn't know how to help his subordinate.

Simply giving up wasn't an option either.

As Zhang Yi was troubled, the elevator reached the first floor at that moment.

As the elevator doors opened, everyone headed directly towards the lobby.

The lobby appeared somewhat empty at this moment, as there were a few less people now that Zhang Yi and the others were not there.

Upon seeing Zhou Yingting and the others come out, Shangguan Nana and the rest breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly approached them.

They knew that Zhou Yingting was probably solving how not to enter the restaurant today.

They wondered if Zhou Yingting could help them a little later on.

But the most important thing now was the rule from the Loli's side.

With this in mind, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhang Yi and the others.

"So, what's that rule?"

Everyone crowded around, worried that Zhang Yi and the others might not want to speak.

However, Zhang Yi didn't hide anything and directly explained the rule he'd just heard to everyone.

After hearing it, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Comparatively, Shangguan Nana wasn't too hopeful.

After all, she knew yesterday that it was targeted at males, so as a woman, she didn't have to worry about it.

"By the way, does anyone have a Spiritual Power Potion? I'm willing to buy it for a good price."

Zhang Yi hadn't forgotten about the issue with his team members and immediately asked the gathered people.

But as soon as he said this, everyone exchanged glances but remained silent.

Zhang Yi, seeing this, got a bit anxious. The only way to save his two subordinates now was with a Spiritual Power Potion.

If they could hold out, they could survive.

Without the potion, they were as good as dead.

"If anyone has one, I'm willing to pay a high price. I know the Spiritual Power Potion is very precious right now. If anyone has an extra, please consider sharing a bit."

Zhang Yi spoke with urgency, hurriedly asking the people around him.

Yet everyone continued to remain silent after hearing him.

Such a scene left no one knowing whether anyone among them had a Spiritual Power Potion.

Zhou Yingting sighed as he watched this scene unfold.

He originally had some potions, but they were all used up later on.

Even if he had any now, he probably wouldn't take them out.

If someone was being targeted by a supernatural entity, in the coming days, they would likely need a Spiritual Power Potion every day.

Without using it, they would be drained completely.

If they used it, they would have to keep using it, and the potion is expensive, continuously using it is unsustainable.

"This Spiritual Power Potion is life-saving. If you want this thing now, nobody will easily give it up."

Shangguan Nana watched the scene and calmly said.

She understood that although someone here might possess it, they likely wouldn't give it up.

Even if they had several, they would keep them as life-saving resources. What would they do if they needed them later?

Zhang Yi sighed hearing this.

"It's fine, Captain Zhang. If there really are no Spiritual Power Potions, don't force it."

Seeing the scene, Lin Yun quickly spoke, "Don't worry. We'll take the opportunity while we still have time to review what we did yesterday to make sure we recall the rule."

The group didn't do much yesterday, so if they think carefully, they might find the rule.

If found, they could gain a few more chances at life.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yi's lips moved, and he reluctantly nodded.

"Perhaps we might find the Spiritual Power Potion in the casino basement."

Just as Zhang Yi was about to accept their fate, a nearby voice made everyone pause.

Zhou Yingting frowned at this suggestion and turned to look at the speaker.

"Are you crazy? At a time like this, you're still fixated on the casino? There's only Blood Gold in the casino basement, no way there are Spiritual Power Potions."

This guy seemed completely engrossed; how could he be thinking about this in such a situation?

"Exactly, don't you know how dangerous the casino basement is? Still thinking about this, you've got a death wish."

"Didn't you see how many people died there yesterday? How dare you still think about it?"

Everyone was aware of what happened at the casino, so they had a deep-seated wariness of it.

Hearing this suggestion, they instinctively resisted.

Seeing such a strong reaction from everyone, the person who suggested it quickly explained.

"No, I didn't mean for you to gamble. I'm saying you can borrow Blood Gold. Think about it—if you're going to die anyway, you might as well borrow a bit of Blood Gold. The casino might not have Spiritual Power Potions, but maybe those supernatural entities have them?"

"Even if they don't, you could perhaps use Blood Gold to get some useful information."

After hearing this reasoning, Zhang Yi and the others paused for a moment.

There might be some logic to it.

"His spiritual power only dropped last night. As for death, it's still uncertain, right?"

Zhou Yingting contemplated this, then shook his head.

"But if you die, there's no going back, not even with regret potions."

The two options were worlds apart.

If they didn't go, they'd likely die.

If they went, there might be a chance for life but also they might end up deeply in debt with Blood Gold.

Many of those who went to gamble yesterday owed a considerable amount of Blood Gold, debts they haven't repaid yet.

When the time comes for repayment, who knows how much Blood Gold will be needed?

Thinking this way, it's terrifying.

Both choices are difficult to make.

Zhang Yi also found himself torn, looking at his two team members, unsure of what choice to make.

Lin Yun also had a complex expression.

At this moment, it seemed like everything hung in the balance.

Zhou Yingting watched the scene, his heart sinking.

Like them, Zhou Yingting was in a bit of trouble.

Today, no matter what, he couldn't take the safety passageway; doing so meant certain death.

So, what could be done to avoid it?

From how the supernatural entities acted, it was clear they offered no assistance.

If only Zhou Yingting had made deals with them earlier, there might have been a chance.

But now, when they were unwilling to deal with him, how could he reach the fourth floor?
