Chapter 150: Higher Education Entrance Examination (10)
When Mr. Green appeared out of thin air, a false smile still hung on his excited face.
"Student Tang, this time..."
Then she saw Tang Xinjue racing at full speed in front of her.
Tang Xinjue nodded and greeted her, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her collar and threw her in front of him!
Mr. Green: ???
The giant black hand at the end of the stairs didn't care whether there was one or two people below it; it just slammed down without hesitation. The woman who bore the brunt of the attack froze in her smile, her hair instinctively blowing back, transforming into thin, sharp thorns in the blink of an eye, piercing the outline of the black hand!
Two screams rang out simultaneously: one was a woman's scream of pain, and the other was a sharp scream from the stairs.
Tang Xinjue's vision suddenly became clear. It turned out that the thick darkness in the corridor was not just the low visibility caused by the lack of light - but the countless fine floating black air.
The black air now rolled down as if it had life, madly gathering at the edge of the last step of the fifth-floor stairs, like a raging flame rising from the ground, burning with anger.
Tang Xin Jue grabbed Teacher Lu and slammed on the brakes, shrugging: "Teacher, you seem to have made them angry."
Mr. Green covered his head and opened his mouth wide: "I provoke them? You..."
The woman was holding back countless curse words as the black energy whistled and whipped over with a long branch. Tang Xinjue reacted slightly faster than the person next to him, hugging the other person from behind and flipping her over on the ground.
Amidst Teacher Lu's screams, Tang Xinjue successfully used the other person's body to block the ghosts on the steps, then pushed the person to the weakest point of the black air barrier and followed closely behind.
This time, the stairs, which had been prepared, reacted instantly and rushed towards the direction of the figure's sprint, covering the person tightly!
"Pah!" At the same time, there was a light sound, and Tang Xin Jue successfully broke through the siege.
——After pushing Midori Teacher out, she rushed directly in the opposite direction. The dangerous angle where the black energy was originally the strongest suddenly became the easiest breakthrough point after all the firepower was transferred to Midori Teacher.
Mr. Lu: "You XX..."
Tang Xinjue stood up and shook his clothes to cover the narrow bloodstains on his skin. Then he nodded politely to the woman trapped on the stairs and said politely:
"Teacher, you're a true believer. Thank you for coming all this way to pick me up. I'll go back to the exam room and continue working on my homework. When you go back later, please bring a few Band-Aids and take them to exam room 307. Thank you."
After saying that, he waved his hand, turned around and walked into the corridor leisurely.
…
Zhang You quietly opened a door and slid in like a fish.
She was already used to seeing the empty and ordinary layout of the house. Not only did she not look disappointed, she immediately cheered up and began to look for an opportunity to go to the next room.
From the second loop, Zhang You immediately realized that honest examinations were of little use in the dungeon. He had no choice but to return to his old ways and use his skilled roaming skills to explore the teaching building.
Taking advantage of the breaks between the four exams, she explored all four floors and discovered that the invigilators' appearances and whereabouts were not without pattern. From her observations, she could be divided into three categories:
The first type is the most common examination room invigilator, with an average of two people stationed in each classroom examination room. Unless in extremely special circumstances, they basically will not leave the classroom.
The second type is the roaming invigilators. Whenever a candidate does not take the exam properly, these invigilators will come out in droves and will not disappear until order is restored in the exam room.
The third and most special type was a single invigilator, whose will and personality were more prominent, and who seemed to possess the ability to command the other invigilators. This was also the only NPC she could sense any overt malevolence from.
For example, the irritable female invigilator with a very familiar name, "Bing Lanlan", is such a leader.
But no matter what kind of invigilator, they wouldn't be online all the time. Especially Bing Lanlan. Zhang You noticed after a little observation that the other party seemed to be restricted by some activity rules:
Whenever she reached a certain amount of movement or time, she would be forced to return to a door in the fourth-floor lobby. If there was no emergency involving the students, she would have to wait until the next exam to come out again.
After mastering these rules, he would seize the gaps when there were any, and create them when there were none. After trying his best, Zhang You finally walked through all the walkable spaces in the five-story teaching building.
After walking through all the places you can walk, the rest of the places are inaccessible.
A faint sound of footsteps interrupted her thoughts. Zhang You silently put on a pair of gloves, then swiftly got into the cabinet in the corner and waited for the door to be opened.
This is the second floor, which is also the place with the strictest invigilation and the easiest to be noticed, so we must be extra careful.
In fact, she had long since noticed that the security levels on different floors varied. After going through them once, she abandoned the easier floors and focused on exploring areas where every step was a threat.
After all, the more dangerous a place is, the more important it is.
So the more she couldn't leave, the more she wanted to leave.
“Squeak—”
The door was flung open, and a young male invigilator walked in. He looked around expressionlessly, his gaze finally landing on a large wooden cabinet in the corner that could accommodate one person.
After a brief moment of judgment, he turned around and walked up step by step, holding the cabinet door handle.
Zhang You held his breath.
Through the gap in the wooden cabinet, she could see the two dull eyes on the invigilator's face, resting quietly in their eye sockets without moving.
This proves that the other party is just conducting a routine inspection and has not yet contacted other invigilators.
As Zhang You breathed a sigh of relief, the invigilator pulled open the cabinet door and his eyes met the girl's in the cabinet.
The next second, he covered his stabbed chin, staggered and fell without saying a word, and fainted.
Zhang You jumped out cautiously, quietly took his coat and tools, put them on, then dragged the man into the cabinet and locked him up.
Although the patrolling invigilators were numerous and endless, they also had their weaknesses. A blow to the jaw would temporarily incapacitate them from contact with the outside world and their ability to move, while being confined in an enclosed space would slow their automatic recall.
After getting rid of the person with ease, Zhang You opened the door again and slipped out quietly.
So far, there is only one door left in the second-floor corridor that has never been opened.
This was a locked door. Zhang You had looked through the keys of many invigilators, but none of them matched the keyhole on the door. She had almost snatched away all the invigilators on the second floor.
If this doesn't work, the only option left for her may be to take the greatest risk and go back to the fourth floor to find "Bing Lanlan " and pluck the hair from the tiger's butt.
Click.
There was a slight sound from the keyhole, and the door opened.
Fortunately, there is always a way out.
Zhang You suppressed the curve of his lips and slipped in sideways without wasting any time. As soon as he entered, he was dazzled:
...Isn't this room a little too bright?
After she adjusted herself and looked again, she realized where the light in the room came from.
The entire room was almost filled with various glass and metal products, reflecting as if it were outdoor sunlight, which was extremely dazzling.
At first she didn't understand the origin and purpose of these items, until she saw dozens of pairs of glasses of different styles placed in the cabinet in front of her, she instantly understood.
Oh my god, so this is it?
Each pair of glasses looks ordinary, but if you look closely you can see words as thin as mosquito wings on the lenses. Paired with earplugs, magnetic cards, USB flash drives... their nature is obvious.
This is clearly a cheating prop storage room!
The house is filled with a dazzling array of props and instruments, from remote control consoles and signal recovery devices to earplugs, rings, and toilet paper, all arranged according to a pile of incomprehensible garbled labels, as if it were a display of confiscated contraband.
Feeling a bit guilty, Zhang You adjusted his glasses frame and began to search according to his original plan. He couldn't help but grind his teeth as he checked.
Why did the dungeon take away all her abilities? Even leaving her with a storage bag would be fine.
These are all props, free props in the copy!
After checking most of the room and finding nothing, she felt as if she had lost 100 million.
Is it really impossible to take something away without affecting the rules of the dungeon? For example... Zhang You's eyes suddenly swept to a certain place and froze for a moment.
It was the sharp edge of a silver instrument. Because the gap was almost integrated with the shadow of the corner of the wall, she almost didn't notice the corner of the paper sticking out.
Gently pulling it out, the document hidden in the corner is revealed in its entirety, and the title comes into view:
"Advanced Entrance Examination… Rules and Regulations?"
"Impossible! This is only the second round, how can you have so much strength..."
The square-faced female teacher fell to the ground, covering her chest with her hands, her face full of disbelief.
Although she still looked like a normal invigilator, her other hand had turned into a pile of bones, and the fingertips of her five fingers, which were sharper than knife blades, were still covered with bloody flesh strands. It was not difficult to imagine the brutality and horror of the attack.
But unfortunately, the bones were broken, so that this terrifying arm could not be lifted at all. The arm was bent 90 degrees in the opposite direction, and there was a foot on the shoulder.
The owner of the foot looked at her disdainfully, holding a blood-stained ID card in his hand, which he had just taken out of the square-faced teacher's pocket.
Zheng Wanqing tried hard to decipher the words on it: "Liu...Liuli Zi? What is this, a color? A kind of glass?"
What the hell is this? Are the clues in the dungeon so obscure now?
"That's my name!"
The square-faced man couldn't help but roar out the last sentence, and his tongue suddenly stretched out and shot straight towards Zheng Wanqing's neck!
Zheng Wanqing subconsciously punched down, and the steel shadow condensed and hit the tongue directly back to the ground, and a dent was directly formed on the back of the square face.
“Wuwuwu——”
The square-faced man stared at her unyieldingly.
Zheng Wanqing suddenly realized: "Your name is Liuli Zi? Why does the name sound familiar... Are you the dungeon boss? No, it doesn't seem that way, you're so weak. Then do you know where my roommate is?"
"Hello, hello?"
Zheng Wanqing squatted down and patted her face, only to find that she had rolled her eyes and fainted from anger.
[The examination room has been severely damaged. The exam cannot continue. We will be randomly transferred to the next examination room. Please be prepared. Three, two, one...]
"Next exam room?"
Zheng Wanqing was startled, her eyes blurred, and when she opened her eyes again, the scene was completely different.
The "candidates" and "invigilators" who were lying all over the classroom are gone, replaced by rows of brand new desks and unfamiliar faces.
A circle of invigilators gathered at the classroom door a few steps away, but this time the target seemed not to be her, but another girl with a low ponytail.
Looking at the more familiar figure, Zheng Wanqing suddenly opened her eyes wide.
