Chapter 105 Health Surprise Inspection (XI)
For the examinees, this dream is almost like a gift. And if you break the rules at a critical moment, no one knows whether you will be retaliated.
Shi An held his forehead with his blood-stained hand, looking mentally ill. He replied indifferently: "I had a dream. In the dream, they attacked me, and when I woke up, I attacked them first."
"Where's your roommate?"
"have no idea. "
Tang Xin Jue stared at the corpses on the ground in a trance, and then asked, "What does it feel like to kill them?"
"It's like killing pigs, but they are much weaker than in the dream." Shi An answered every sentence without thinking.
Killing pigs?
Tang Xin Jue curled his lips and said, "As long as they get through this dream, they can truly escape from this copy. They probably didn't expect that they would die during the last period of time they survived as humans."
Killing the male dormitory students here is almost the same as killing a living person. In addition, the candidates will not recover their memories before the ghosts leave, so who knows if someone will kill someone because of a "dream"?
Shi An did not respond: "If you had the same dream as me, you would make the same choice."
...This sentence sounds a little familiar.
If she remembered correctly, an NPC named Li Xiaoyu also said something similar.
[If you see what I see, you will understand me. If you were me, you would make the same choice]
At that time, Tang Xinjue could not fully understand the meaning and purpose of this sentence, but now seeing Shi An, she had a new guess.
But before verifying this guess, she had another thing to do.
She nodded, "Okay, since you have a sound mind, it doesn't count as me bullying a weak mind."
Shi An: “…”
His sensitivity to the intention of fighting made him understand this sentence.
He subconsciously drew his weapon and raised his eyelashes blankly: "What are you going to do?"
Tang Xin Jue is concise and to the point:
"Props."
In the final battle of the dungeon, both teams of candidates had injured people who needed to be evacuated urgently, so the two men who tried to grab the treasure only struck once and left without actually fighting.
Since the exam gave them a second chance to meet each other, they certainly couldn't miss it.
Shi An's eyes suddenly became a little clearer and he stood up silently.
Communication and negotiation are the means to be used when fighting does not produce results. The two of them understand that now they can fight with force instead of words.
His memory had not fully recovered, but his fighting instinct was still there. He knew that the opponent was immune to some sprays, so this time he used no green tea-flavored spray, but a heavy net that caught Tang Xinjue's weapon the moment he drew it out.
The hammer is powerful in attack but is heavy and difficult to wield. Once it is grabbed, it takes twice the strength to break free, which is tantamount to losing the initiative.
However, the expected steps did not occur - a light weapon directly pierced through the net, splitting it in two and turning it back into mist. The weapon that was bullying him in the mist caught Shi An's eyes, and he turned his eyes away in surprise.
That's clearly a... toilet plunger?
Tang Xinjue turned the toilet plunger skillfully. The familiar supernatural power was indeed much more comfortable than a temporary substitute, especially when used in combat. After being successfully repaired, the sharpness of the toilet plunger was greatly increased, and it could be said that it was invincible.
Shi An took two quick steps back. He realized that the spray's control skills would be restrained by Tang Xin Jue, so he decisively turned defense into offense, pressed the spray in his hand to spray out another puff of mist, and at the same time kicked the chair on the ground.
The wooden chair seemed to be cut into pieces by countless knives in the mist, and each piece turned into an extremely sharp wooden thorn, falling towards Tang Xinjue like an overwhelming force!
The wooden thorns didn't fall close to him, and a more powerful airflow howled out from his skin, blowing them all back in a shrill scream. Shi An chanted a spell, and the wooden thorns exploded into powder, settling to the ground with water mist.
After a few rounds of less than two minutes, neither of them could get close to each other, but they suffered a lot of minor injuries. Shi An's eyes became clearer and clearer, and he looked complicated as if he wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and closed it again.
Finally he said, "I want to take care of this place."
He was referring to his bloody hands and the room full of corpses.
In stark contrast to him, Tang Xinjue had not had a single speck of blood on his body since he entered the room, standing there cleanly. Even though there was the same indifference in his eyes, he always gave people the feeling that he was clearly separated from this place.
"No problem." Tang Xin Jue smiled and said, "I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage of others' misfortune."
Then she stood with her arms folded, showing no intention of leaving.
Shi An lowered his eyes: "...I can't give you things from the Academic Affairs Office. But I can give you other things, such as food, defensive items, discount cards...even dungeon information."
Tang Xin Jue found his expression, which was as if he was cutting flesh, a little funny: "If I didn't understand Chinese, I might have thought that you were not talking about the copy information, but the secret that could kill you."
Shi An also smiled slightly, but it was very shallow: "You should know better than me what kind of weapon information is. Only the stupidest people would share it directly."
Tang Xin Jue: "So you probably won't tell me why you know me."
The other party was noncommittal: "You are different from what I thought. I can't trust you now... But it doesn't matter. If you can survive, you will know one day."
Tang Xin Jue nodded: "Okay, so similarly, I can't trust you either."
Shi An's smile froze. Then, he heard Tang Xin Jue say word by word: "Shi classmate, how can I trust someone who killed his teammates in the team battle exam?"
“…”
Shi An did not deny it. He knew that since Tang Xinjue had already said it, his guess was certain.
Of course, he didn't think there was anything to explain, so he just raised his weapon again indifferently. It was a bottle of spray about half the length of his forearm, wrapped tightly in black paper, so the words on the spray could not be seen clearly.
"I don't know when you entered the exam, or how you did it. But in this game, you are not always so lucky to meet teammates who really want to cooperate without selfish motives. Your last mission may be cooperation, and the next one may be killing each other. Of course, before that, there is no need for a reason to kill. Just like goblins kill us and we kill goblins."
He gave a self-deprecating smile and whispered, "From a certain perspective, what is the difference between us and ghosts?"
Tang Xinjue did not answer.
The blood that had solidified on the ground in the house began to rise slowly and decomposed into an impenetrable blood mist. It was swirled and torn apart during the battle, and finally splashed into the wall, and the space became blurred as if it had been corroded.
Although Shi An's ability was strong, he had no advantage in front of Tang Xin Jue. He just had a desperate spirit, as if it didn't matter if he fought to the death here.
Tang Xin Jue laughed: "You want to drag me down with you?"
There were no roommates around, nor anyone she was familiar with. Her face no longer had her usual gentle smile, but was as expressionless as Shi An's.
Even from beginning to end, it was immersed in a coldness that was engraved into the bone marrow.
"Give up." After dispersing an illusory monster condensed from the spicy spray, Tang Xin Jue said, "No matter who you are, we are not on the same path."
Shi An's eyelashes trembled slightly, his face completely sank, but the corners of his mouth smiled: "Aren't we the same kind? Are your roommates the same kind as you? Do they know about your nightmares? Do they know that you kill people without blinking an eye just like me? Do they know that you..."
"Brother Shi——"
A vague shout suddenly came from far outside the door - that was another door in the room, connecting to the exit of the men's dormitory.
Shi An was stunned, and the rest of his words died on his lips.
"Brother Shi - the exit is about to close, come out quickly - Shi An -"
Tang Xin Jue raised his eyebrows: "What about your roommates? You two are not from the same group? The blood bottles that exploded in the Academic Affairs Office were used to save them, right?"
Shi An listened quietly to the shouting outside, his murderous intent and emotions faded. After a moment, he took out a pen while panting lightly.
"Forget it, I'm just not as skilled as others."
He threw the pen out of the door with force, and closed the door of the room the moment Tang Xinjue dodged to catch it.
"I hope we won't be enemies when we meet next time." A sigh-like farewell was left inside the door.
Tang Xin Jue waved his hand at the void: "Lower your demands. It will be fine if we meet in person next time."
Inside the door: "..."
He flew out at the last moment when the door was about to close, and the moment he grabbed his roommate's arm, the space shattered. Tang Xinjue only had time to raise the pen to show his results before he fell into darkness again.
"The personal evaluation of dormitory members is loading..."
"Name: Tang Xin Jue"
"Level: Sanitation Surprise Inspection"
"Output: 27%"
"Injury resistance: 2%"
"Assistance: 12%"
"Effective score: 9 points"
"Unlocked achievements: 15"
“Final evaluation: Examination room discipline maintainer”
"The support plan for special subjects is in progress, support points +30"
Tang Xinjue's heart skipped a beat when he saw the new personal evaluation .
The final evaluation that was always filled with nouns such as "output", "jungle", and "MVP" was replaced by a new definition...Examination room discipline maintainer?
The first thing she did after opening her eyes was to jump up from her desk and try to discuss the matter with her roommate, but she ended up getting a ruthless throat chokehold:
Zhang You gritted his teeth and said, "The last second! Do you know how dangerous it is?!"
If I can't get out in this second, will I have to stay in the copy forever?
Tang Xin Jue: "I know what's going on... I can't breathe."
Zhang You: "You have a ghost!"
Tang Xin Jue smiled and said, "There is no ghost, but there is a new title."
She showed her roommate her personal evaluation, and Zhang You was stunned for a moment: "Then let me see mine."
Zhang You turned on his phone, and it displayed: [Jungler Support ]
Zhang You: “…”
Can she never leave the word "jungle" in her life?
