Chapter 138 Dormitory Friendship League (Thirty)
"Heart Secret...?"
Zheng Wanqing opened her eyes in shock, and stretched out her right hand to pull Tang Xin Jue, but Zhang You quickly intercepted her wrist, and his grip was so strong that it hurt:
"She is not!"
Zhang You's voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the dark and cramped space.
"She is not Tang Xin Jue."
Her eyes were fixed on the girl in front of her - Tang Xinjue's body was unharmed, the only change seemed to be her pupils which suddenly turned copper-yellow.
But there’s more to it than that… there’s also aura.
Cold, strange, as if all the vitality had been sucked out, this feeling would never appear on Tang Xinjue.
Guo Guo swallowed hard, "No, it's not the Heart Sutra..."
Who could that be?
Zhang You didn't answer. In her dark pocket, she curled her fingers and clenched a light golden card.
【Game Resurrection Card】
[Holding a bedroom can increase the chance of resurrection during the game, which needs to be manually triggered by the holder before death. 】
This was the item they obtained after the previous copy. It had been kept in Tang Xinjue's hands. After being locked by the suddenly appearing blood-red eyes, Zhang You was ready to wait for death and resurrection.
But at the moment when the black air rushed into the dormitory, Tang Xinjue touched her imperceptibly, and the card was stuffed into her palm from Tang Xinjue's fingertips.
Before she could react, the black gas had already enveloped her - but in the blink of an eye it dissipated without any warning, surrounding Tang Xin Jue with fear.
It was not until this time that Zhang You regained his composure from his shock and made a general assessment of the situation.
There are only two possible reasons why Tang Xin Jue transferred the resurrection card at the critical moment:
Otherwise, she doesn't need the card.
Otherwise, she couldn't guarantee that she could use the card.
The resurrection card must be triggered in advance by the holder when he is still alive and conscious.
Zhang You didn't know what happened to Tang Xin Jue, but the next second when the logic was automatically connected, he realized the hint given by Tang Xin Jue:
——She might have another way to resolve this deadlock, which does not necessarily require the use of the resurrection card, but it would also be very risky.
And if she fails, she will need another person to activate the card.
While breathing rapidly, Zhang You's gaze was fixed on Tang Xinjue.
...So now, has she succeeded or failed?
The blood-red eyeball froze in mid-air.
Even if it was only for a moment, the backlash of the dormitory rules reached an extremely terrifying level.
The huge eyeball, which was as tall as a person, was corroded to only a small half. The black gas disappeared completely as soon as it touched the dormitory wall. This was why the vision of several people became clear quickly - the dormitory protection mechanism was taking effect!
His eyeballs knew they couldn't stay there for long, and his pupils made a terrifying crackling sound, staring at Tang Xinjue with the intent of almost bulging out.
But it couldn't continue its attack. No other creature here knew better than it what the aura in the girl's dark yellow pupils meant.
That is a higher level existence with absolute oppression and command power; it is the purpose of its trip, the reason for what is happening at this moment, and it is...
Could it be that he came in person?
Biological instinct forced it to retreat and flee, but something else that it rarely came into contact with, something humans called logic, made it aware of a lingering sense of disharmony.
If that person decides to do it himself, why does he need it to come over?
If the student's body is already occupied by "that person" at this moment, why not give orders?
It was not until the pair of dark yellow pupils looked over coldly that it confirmed again that there was no trace of life in the girl, and only the power belonging to "Them" remained. This was an indisputable fact.
Although there was still a hint of strangeness, it still lowered its head obediently and retreated.
From an outsider's perspective, the eyeball paused for a few seconds before falling to the ground. The bloody and mangled remaining tissues formed a ball and slowly dragged backwards in this strange posture.
Is this, has the attack stopped?
Zhang You gritted his teeth and quietly moved to the back of Tang Xin Jue. When the blood-red eyeball was almost retreating to the dormitory window, he used the dim light in the room to turn over the other side of the resurrection card.
Then she heard the spiritual imprint left by Tang Xin Jue.
Tang Xin Jue said: Wake me up.
…
Outside the dormitory building, the game field was shrouded in silence for dozens of seconds, and no one made a sound.
After Blood-Red Eyeball entered, Dormitory 606 did not emit the same blood-curdling screams as the previous dormitory that was chosen for punishment. But no one doubted that there must be another form of hell inside.
Being chosen by a ghost boss like Eyeball is undoubtedly like being sounded the death knell by the god of death, and it is not much different from being directly wiped out in the game. If it were any of their dormitories, they would not be lucky enough to think that they still have a chance to survive.
At this moment, they didn't know whether to be shocked or grateful. They were grateful that they were not the ones with the best grades, but instead could live longer?
On the balcony of 307, Yue Qiong lowered his head and listened quietly to the noise above.
He wouldn't be stupid enough to use the cursed black mist to investigate the situation unless he also wanted to be noticed by the red eyes.
The so-called cooperative relationship between the informant and the Elf House is more of a game setting. In essence, they are students, and the other party is a ghost. How can the beast really cooperate with its prey?
Especially when the true form of the blood-red eyeball appeared, he began to feel an increasingly strong sense of foreboding, but he could not figure out where this premonition came from.
"Is he really dead?"
He spoke softly as if talking to himself, his expression unclear under the mask.
"To invite wolves to kill people, but not to believe that people will be killed."
All he got was the shield girl's sharp, cold voice: "Why don't you try it yourself in the wolf's mouth and see if you can survive."
Yue Qiong was aroused by the murderous intent beside him. He glanced at the girl who was sharpening her knife, collected his thoughts, and smiled indifferently: "It seems that I overestimated them."
Just because he was cheated a few times, he subconsciously felt how powerful that person was. Maybe he was just being paranoid.
That’s right. Compared to the opponent who is already doomed to fail, how to deal with the cheap neighbor who is about to go berserk is the most urgent problem to be solved.
It would be best if the third dormitory to be punished could fall on the shield girl, so as to avoid the trouble of him taking action. Yue Qiong's eyes moved slightly, but it was a pity that he couldn't find a way to control the "Elf House" yet...
Just as the fragmented and brief thoughts flashed through his mind, an inhuman scream suddenly sounded from far above him, sharply cutting through the air and rushing into his ears!
Yue Qiong's eyelids jumped suddenly, and like all the other candidates, he immediately looked up -
Then, a scene that he had never thought of, or even could not imagine, came into his sight.
On the broken balcony of Room 606, a red piece of flesh the size of a rubber ball was struggling to wriggle outwards. From under the surface tissue, traces of a pupil could be vaguely seen, and it was still melting and bleeding.
A thin layer of black air outside protected the piece of rotten meat, and it clung to the balcony tightly, as if it was fleeing in a panic, as if there was some ferocious beast in the dormitory, and if it was any later it would be devoured to the bone and blood.
This, this is...
The candidates who were recognized opened their mouths in astonishment.
Is this the blood-red eyeball?
"What the hell is this? It scared me."
Guo Liang sucked in a breath of cold air, stared at the balcony window of Room 303 with his eyes wide open, not daring to look anymore and quickly turned his head away.
In shock, he almost forgot about the small white bowl in his hand, causing the steaming water in the bowl to almost spill out, scaring him so much that a layer of cold sweat immediately seeped out of the tip of his nose:
"Fortunately, fortunately, if this spilled, the spiritual power master would be in danger."
This is a big deal. It earns much more than Brother Bai doing business with the game, working hard every day as a barefoot doctor, and doing odd jobs maintaining dungeons.
"Put it away."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him. Guo Liang turned around in surprise and saw that Brother Bai had withdrawn his healing skills and turned back to the formation that protected the entire venue. He said in a light voice: "They are fine over there."
Guo Liang: “???”
"Did I hear wrongly or are you kidding? An eyeball that big entered Dormitory 606. The doors and windows of the dormitory are all rotten. How could it be okay... Wait," Guo Liang paused, and then realized belatedly: "That eyeball..."
"The thing that was clinging to the window of Room 606 just now, was that the blood-red eyeball??"
Guo Liang turned his head and looked outside again. The piece of flesh on the window of 606 had become smaller. Although it was still struggling to get out, it seemed to be sucked by something from behind and could not get out of the dormitory.
This scene doesn't look like the students inside are being chased by the blood-red eyeballs, but rather the eyeballs are being... persecuted by the students?
