The reason why Tiantian and Liuliu were surprised.

It was not because the scene that was now presented to them was too terrifying, nor was it because the difficulty of escape presented by the [Gate] was beyond their imagination.

Rather, the outcome of this [Gate] option turned out to be beyond their initial imagination...ordinary.

The gate is made of two iron gates, randomly locked with a rusty chain as thick as a bowl, and the chain is locked with an equally rusty lock.

The keyhole is very large, and it looks like it is a very old spring-type lock structure. It seems that if you know a little bit of lock-picking skills, you can easily pry it open.

Next to the gate of Styx Junior High School, there stood a simple security booth made of red bricks.

The security booth looked like a simple public toilet, with walls on all sides, no windows, and only a wooden door that looked like it could be broken with a slap.

Beside the door, an ugly old dog with wrinkled fur lay lazily beside the door.

The old dog's expression has no moral integrity at all. Even when he is sleeping, he is licking his face, like the type who can pick up a bone just by throwing it away.

Ah this?

Although Tiantian and Liuliu look delicate and weak, they are also apostles after all.

Apostles who are still alive today.

At this point, the exit of Styx Junior High School was not blocked by an iron wall as they imagined. This contrast made them hesitate.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

Tiantian rubbed her eyes.

Liu Liu's slender fingers trembled slightly.

Neither of the two girls spoke.

When arriving at the gate, the restraint from [Multiple Choice Question] has disappeared without a trace.

In other words, they can move freely now.

When he raised his head, he saw that apart from the gate, the wall was only over two meters high. For the apostles, that was a height that could be easily crossed.

Liu Liu's fingers finally stopped trembling, and her heart seemed to calm down. A wry smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "This, the trap seems too obvious, doesn't it?"

"Oh drink?" Tiantian turned to look at Liu Liu, half-smiling but not smiling: "I thought you would pretend to be generous and let me try to escape first?"

Liu Liu pursed her lips and smiled, still a bit shy: "No, sister, you shouldn't be that stupid."

Tiantian's expression was slightly cold: "Call me sister."

Liu Liu: "..."

The exit is right in front of you.

The two of them did not dare to move.

After just talking nonsense, both of them felt clear in their hearts. If they could really escape from this school by climbing over the wall, then this trial would be too ridiculous.

Taking a step back, if one of the ways of escape in this escape trial is really as simple as climbing over the wall... I guess the final evaluation will not be too high.

As we all know, the final evaluation of the in-world trials is often proportional to the difficulty.

Time passes minute by minute.

When they were doing nothing, they noticed something strange.

During the lunch break, when all the students in Styx Junior High School were free to move around, no one took the initiative to approach this place.

Why?

Could it be that this place is inaccessible for some reason?

Or... this is not the way out at all?

Then what is the purpose of setting up a [gate]?

Decoration?

The weather was not hot, and the sky was gray. After being frozen in place for a few minutes, a layer of moisture appeared on their foreheads.

"retreat?"

Tiantian asked in a low voice, as if she was asking Liu Liu beside her, but also as if she was asking herself.

"retreat."

Liu Liu did not hesitate. It was only the first day, and the escape trial lasted more than seventy hours.

Even if this is really the exit, as long as the position of the door remains unchanged, they can come at any time. There is no need to take risks in the current lack of information.

After all, you only have one life, use it and cherish it.

And at this moment.

Suddenly.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

Both logically and unexpectedly, the door opened.

The moment the door opened, Liu Liu and Tiantian, who had been tense, took a step back at the same time, with goosebumps rising all over their bodies.

"Well, two classmates, what are you doing here?"

A bald old man walked out of the house with a pair of indifferent eyes.

The bald man was wearing a dark blue security uniform and looked nothing special.

Doorman?

Yes.

Isn't it normal for the school gate to have a guard?

Is it normal for a doorman to keep a dog?

I'm so... normal as a ghost!

Tiantian and Liuliu looked at each other.

Under this situation, the two apostles subconsciously regarded each other as teammates, no longer pitting each other overtly or covertly, and first dealt with the current situation.

"I--"

Tiantian just opened her mouth to say something.

But it stopped suddenly.

[Narrator] appeared in front of the two of them instantly.

【You seem to want to leave campus.】

[The only guard at Styx Junior High School, Third Uncle, appears in front of you.]

[Uncle San feels that you guys look very unfamiliar, and although I can’t see it on the surface, I’m very confused about your appearance here. 】

【Please choose your answer.】

[a, good uncle, dear uncle, I want to go out to buy sweets, can you let us go out? 】

[b, Uncle guard, look at my innocent eyes, do you believe me when I say I’m just lost? 】

【c, without saying a word, turned around and left. 】

The same options appeared in front of them.

Tiantian and Liu Liu fell silent for a moment.

There was no further communication.

The moment Liuliu and Tiantian saw the three options, an inexplicable strange feeling hit them, giving them the illusion of a chill down their spines at the same time.

It feels like if you make the wrong choice, you will die here.

The three apparently simple options made it difficult for them to make up their minds.

Just when they hesitated.

The third uncle, the bald guard, and the old dog beside him raised their eyelids slightly.

The third uncle also took a step forward and frowned: "Huh? Why don't you say anything? Didn't your teacher tell you not to approach the gate if you have nothing to do? Or is it that you are broken?"

When Tiantian heard this, she was shocked. Sure enough, there is such a taboo!

The teacher really didn’t say anything!

Only the devil knows!

[Uncle San started to get a little impatient.]

【Please answer as soon as possible.】

【Or leave here immediately.】

etc.

What's going on with this suddenly tense atmosphere?
