Queen Yanluo suddenly, very suddenly and without warning... knelt down.
Oda Mai just picked up the knife and was about to cut her wrist. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help but pause, and her hard face was slightly confused.
Queen Yanluo wrapped her whole body's heat within half a meter of her surroundings, and did not leak any more than half a meter away.
Queen Yanluo's posture at this moment seemed to be that she wanted to shrink into a thick turtle shell and not dare to move.
For all the students in class two of the third year, in an instant, the green light in their eyes suddenly dimmed, as if they were so happy that they suddenly felt depressed after being said "normal".
All the students were huddled in every corner of Class 2, Grade 3, as if they had been infected by Queen Yanluo, and they were also trembling.
The situation in Class Two of Year Three turned strangely. The Queen knelt on the ground for some reason, and the other students were trembling.
Ah this?
How fat is this?
Is it the loss of morality or the distortion of human nature?
Regarding this sudden drastic change, Liu Ruyan and Gao Tiantian didn't know what to do.
Oda Mai smiled coldly against the wall.
Her fighting spirit is high.
She drew blood with her sword.
She will be unbeatable.
She sheathed her sword and was about to——
"Let's go!"
Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan finally reacted and made their own choices.
After Queen Yanluo's heat was contained, the heat in the air finally became less terrifying. The two of them were sweating profusely. Taking advantage of this inexplicable situation, they rushed out from their respective positions, each holding one of Mai Oda's arms.
Without saying a word, she held up Mai Oda, who was about to use the knife to enjoy double the pleasure, rushed out of the classroom through the back door, and ran away.
Oda Mai had no expression on her face and slowly typed a question mark: "?"
Cao Tiantian explained bitterly: "You are stupid! Have you forgotten that this is an escape mission? Our goal is not to kill monsters, but to escape from this shabby school!"
As the three of them ran, Liu Ruyan gasped slightly: "Yes, now is not a good time to kill monsters, and there are no obvious benefits to killing monsters... Besides, do you really think that with the strength of Queen Yanluo, we can
Can you really kill her when she kneels down?"
Cao Tiantian didn't know what she was thinking of, her expression changed, and she shook her head wildly, expressing disbelief.
actually.
Originally, according to the apostle's usual style, Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan did not need to pay attention to Oda Mai at all.
After all, you are willing to stay and fight monsters to attract hatred and become a tank. You agree with me, and we did not force you. While you were pulling the boss's hatred, we slipped away. Isn't this a normal operation?
But just when Oda Mai was about to draw his sword and kill Queen Yanluo, a narration that filled the screen appeared in front of both Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan.
Those three options are vaguely like reminders.
Oda Mai...can't die!
The force value she displayed will be very useful next time!
Cao Tiantian nodded secretly.
really!
There is no perfect path, that's what this trial turned out to be.
As long as a certain point in time is reached, the narration will give out escape tips bit by bit, allowing the surviving apostles to discover the real way out from the various narrations and option prompts.
I see!
I see!
Cao Tiantian suddenly understood.
It turns out that this is the reason for the "time limit".
As time goes by, students and teachers in the school will become more and more demonized, and "hints" will follow one after another.
As the saying goes, there is no absolute death in a trial, that’s what it is!
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, if they were not given any hints, they would not be able to find a real way out of Styx Junior High School in just three days.
The difficulty... is too high.
Escape Trial, as the name suggests, this world is for escaping, not for anal sex.
"Run!"
Oda Mai silently put away the knife.
The three of them did not hesitate, took three steps at a time, quickly walked down the stairs and arrived at the vast playground.
When Cao Tiantian, Oda Wu, and Liu Ruyan arrived at the playground, varying degrees of surprise appeared on their faces.
"Is it...snowing? When?"
Liu Ruyan's eyes narrowed slightly. After a moment of silence, she carefully stretched out her hand. Pieces of "snow" as fine as goose feathers slowly floated in the air, and finally some of them were taken by Liu Ruyan in her white palm.
There was no hint of coolness wherever the "snowflakes" touched, and there was no sign of being melted by body temperature.
"This...isn't snow."
Liu Ruyan said suddenly.
Cao Tiantian was stunned: "What is it if it's not snow?"
Liu Ruyan: "This is ashes. Yes, it looks like ashes produced after burning. There is 'ash' in this sky!"
In front of you.
Styx Junior High School.
Whether it was the playground, the ground, or the vegetation, everything in sight was covered in a blank and pale ashes. At first glance, it looked like a heavy snow had suddenly fallen, making the school covered in silver.
A campus shrouded in ice and snow.
The three of them were walking on campus, and as soon as they stepped on it, a fine cloud of dust rose up behind them. But soon, it was gradually covered by ashes falling from the sky, hiding their footprints.
The pale sky, the pale ashes, the vast earth, the sky and the earth, are desolate.
What a desolate and beautiful scenery this is!
Even Mai Oda, who had always only thought about swords and swords, had an indifferent expression at the moment, staring at the sky, making people wonder what she was thinking.
The ashes in front of them, and even the ashes falling on their bodies and shoulders, did not make Liu Ruyan and the others feel "dirty". Unlike the ordinary dust in the real world, the dust was flying everywhere in front of them.
The "gray" is paler, purer, and more flawless, making people even unable to bear to touch or trample on it.
It seems that even making loud noises to destroy this dead, desolate and strangely beautiful atmosphere is a sin.
Cao Tiantian raised her head, wiped her eyes, couldn't believe it, and murmured to herself: "Why does the sky rain... gray?"
Liu Ruyan shook her head: "I don't know either. But I guess... Queen Yanluo's reaction is probably related to the gray in the sky."
Cao Tiantian felt chills all over: "Even Queen Yanluo was so scared that she knelt down on the spot. Isn't this a sign before the world is destroyed, as described in novels and movies?"
"Haha, what does the destruction of this world have to do with us? Just escape."
"That's true."
The two of them quickly calmed down after saying one thing to each other.
suddenly.
At this moment.
boom--
There was a loud noise.
A huge explosion suddenly came from the teaching building.
An astonishing wave of air raged through all the passages in the entire teaching building and exploded.
When the air wave reached the playground, all the ash on the ground was lifted up, covering the three people's faces.
But at this moment, Liu Ruyan and the other three couldn't care less about their miserable and gray heads. There was a terrible temperature in that air wave. Even after they tossed and turned a few times in the passage of the teaching building, the heat wave hit their faces.
, they can still clearly distinguish the terrifying high temperature mixed in the air waves, which is very much like the anger of Queen Yanluo, so surging and turbulent.
Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan coincidentally imagined the undulating mountains of Queen Yanluo, as huge as they were angry.
Cao Tiantian: "It's her!!!"
Liu Ruyan: "It's her..."
When Queen Yanluo went crazy again.
In front of the two of them, [Multiple Choice Question] and [Narration] reappeared.
Liu Ruyan and Cao Tiantian's expressions changed slightly, but after they were slightly surprised, they carefully observed the options and quickly made their "choices" without verbal communication.
After making their choice, the two actually entered pathfinding mode and walked in two directions.
On the spot, only Oda Wu was left, with a sword hanging from his waist, standing proudly on the dusty earth.
After Liu Ruyan and Cao Tiantian left, the ashes flying in the sky... stopped.
If it hadn't left ashes all over the place, it might be hard to believe that there were once pure snow-like ashes flying all over the sky under this sky.
…
…
And about ten minutes ago.
Styx Junior High School Office Building.
Office of the Vice President.
Or the secretary's office.
——It’s the same anyway.
Yi Lin easily and happily cracked the "mystery of the secret room where the vice principal had an affair" and arrived at the secret room.
He turned over the vice principal's office and found no special props or mechanisms.
So I had to give up.
Back in the secret room, Yi Lin's eyes fell on a covered mirror.
Although Yi Lin did not see the mirror, this shape... there should be no other possibility besides being a mirror.
"Huh, it can't be a portal, right? Or maybe it's some kind of magic mirror or something like that?"
"Once you are caught in the mirror, will you go to heaven where you are?"
"Or is it like being sucked into the mirror world?"
Yi Lin smiled, and many possibilities flashed through her mind.
After all, this is Styx Junior High School.
In a weird school where even "magic" exists without any violation, wouldn't it make sense for a mirror with strange powers to appear?
Although Yi Lin laughed on the surface, she was extremely vigilant in her heart.
Why has the entire Styx Junior High School never seen a mirror?
It happened to be hidden in the secret room of the vice-principal and secretary?
If Yi Lin guessed correctly, this mirror covered with black cloth was most likely the only "mirror" in the world.
Yi Lin carefully lifted up a corner of the black cloth, but did not lift it completely. She put her hand into it and touched it quietly.
The feel... nothing special.
But the attribute of "mirror" suddenly appeared before our eyes.
…
[Ordinary full-length mirror]
【Grade】Rough
【Durability】2/2
[Effect] Extremely fragile.
[Explanation] This is a treasured full-length mirror obtained by "Superior Fraudster Mundy" through special channels. He likes it very much. Every time he uses it with his secretary, he will wipe it carefully to avoid getting any dirt on it.
…
Rough grade?
That is... is it really just an ordinary full-length mirror?
Yi Lin lowered his head and thought.
As for the properties of the mirror, that few words of explanation also made Yi Lin feel that something was wrong.
A superior deceiver?
Yi Lin's eyes flashed slightly.
And the effect column is also extremely weird.
Can [Extremely Fragile] also be counted as an effect?
An ordinary mirror has an unusual explanation, which everyone will find strange.
But at this point, it seems a bit unreasonable to say that he completely ignored the only mirror in Styx Junior High School and turned around to leave.
After thinking about it, Yi Lin suddenly smiled, and then silently took out the knife.
After taking out the knife, Yi Lin suddenly lifted the black cloth covering her goggles completely.
The mirror surface is as smooth as new.
And in the mirror, a green-faced "devil" with fangs and wings on his back was "looking" at Yi Lin in confusion!
Yi Lin: "..."
Yi Lin had no expression on her face and without hesitation, she immediately raised her knife and stabbed the "devil" in the mirror.
But at the same time, the "devil" with green face and fangs and wings on its back in the mirror stabbed Yi Lin with the same movement and the same speed with the dark red short knife in his hand.
Separated by an ordinary mirror, Yi Lin and a "demon" stabbed each other with real swords and guns, just like fencing in the air, very exciting.
but.
When the tip of Blood Jasmine's knife was less than an inch away from the mirror, Yi Lin suddenly woke up with a slight chill on her back.
The "devil" in the mirror stabbed Yi Lin with a knife and was also frozen on the other side of the mirror. The tips of the knives inside and outside the mirror were facing each other tit for tat across the mirror, as if they were in another world.
Yi Lin reacted and her pupils shrank suddenly.
That’s what happened!
The "demon" in the mirror is not someone else, nor is it a monster with a health bar that can be killed, but... him.
This is Yi Lin in the mirror.
The ordinary mirror in front of her is like a demon mirror, reflecting Yi Lin's truest posture.
"Is this...reality?"
Yi Lin quickly put away the knife.
He twisted his waist and stretched his arms, just shy of performing a complete radio gymnastics-style ancient martial arts strengthening technique.
Yi Lin did it anyway.
Not bad at all.
The strange "him" in the mirror also made a round of the same movements.
"Sure enough...is it actually coming in this way?"
Yi Lin was finally convinced of what kind of existence they were in this trial world.
Originally, when they first entered the trial, Yi Lin had deduced from the rudiments of their facial features and the [Grudge] attached to their foreheads that they had come to this world in a state of being "regressed in time".
But this is not the case.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, this approach does not make much sense.
Yi Lin doesn't know the real ages of Cao Tiantian, Han Han, and Liu Ruyan, so we won't mention them for now.
However, Yi Lin and Mai Oda are only in their early eighteens and are still young and tender. Although it is a bit difficult to play the role of junior high school students, at most they look a little precocious and not exaggerated to the extent of an uncle with a beard.
To pretend to be a middle school student is so unconventional.
That's why Yi Lin felt that this "cuteness" didn't make much sense.
But now when Yi Lin saw "him" in the mirror, she was completely convinced of this matter.
It turns out that they did not come in their true form at all.
If Yi Lin guessed correctly, their current bodies were created by a certain entity similar to Saya's birth method, and then entered this Styx Junior High School through "transfer students".
That's why people like Yi Lin and others would have a weird sarcoma growing on their backs without knowing it.
And this is why, the moment they appeared, they were already standing on the podium of Class 2, Grade 3, completely skipping the steps of entering the other world with their true bodies.
"It is very possible that this body is an existence similar to a 'body copy'."
"'It' has quietly replaced all our 'data' in some way."
"For 'it', this kind of thing is not difficult to do at all. After all, every time we return, we can return to the 'original' state by consuming death points."
"It's like, before we enter the trial, we will go through a 'data backup' process. Then when we return, whether it is missing an arm or a leg, or any injury, even if only half of the body is left, we can easily restore it by spending points.
.”
"So actually 'we' can also use magic in this world? It's similar to Queen Yanluo's power? But we just haven't found a way?"
"So, can this kind of reinforcement be brought back to the real world through learning and exercise, and become an ability that can be mastered independently?"
Yi Lin thought of many possibilities, and her thoughts became clearer.
But.
Yi Lin frowned again.
This still cannot fully explain why there are no other mirrors in Styx Junior High School except here.
Just to prevent students from discovering their ugliness?
Isn't that the case?
Maybe there are other more meaningful reasons?
Yi Lin always felt that something was wrong.
But I couldn't figure it out for a while.
So he thought about it more seriously.
But Yi Lin didn't notice that when he was thinking about the violation of the "mirror", a black spot appeared out of thin air in the center of the mirror.
An extremely pure black spot, like a black hole inside a mirror, absorbs all the red erotic lights in the secret room.
The black spot gradually expanded from a dot to a lump...a piece...a small piece.
When Yi Lin came back to her senses, she found that "she" in the mirror seemed to be stained by a large thick ink stain. The image in the mirror, from her neck down to her navel, was completely covered by the black ink.
, unable to see clearly the true appearance.
This strange scene seems to indicate that... something is coming.
The strange changes were sudden and caught people off guard. At this juncture, Yi Lin could only take out the knife again and moisten his throat. No matter what monster was about to run out of the mirror, he would be prepared to strike.
It’s troublesome], just make it look like it’s in trouble before talking about it.
Yi Lin didn't know that something strange happened to the mirror.
The sky was filled with flying ash, as pale as snow and as fine as sand, quietly covering the entire school without leaving any corner.
What Yi Lin didn't even know was that at the moment when the sky was filled with ashes, all the creatures in the academy, except for their apostles, all looked at the sky, knelt on the ground, and shivered.
Yi Lin is unaware of everything happening in the outside world.
But even if he knew it, he had no time to care about it at the moment.
Because of the mirror in front of me, darkness spread completely, the mirror surface was completely submerged, and it was completely dyed into a strange black.
All light and all reality cannot leave any image or trace on the black mirror.
Yi Lin suddenly felt that this dark color looked familiar.
Somewhat like the darkness that shrouds Styx Junior High School at night.
But there's something different about it.
Yi Lin was tense all over, clenching the knife in her hand, staring into the abyss in the mirror, not daring to breathe out.
It seemed as if just exhaling forcefully would disturb some kind of terrifying existence.
Yi Lin knew in his heart that the situation in front of him was beyond his expectation, out of his control, extraordinary and very bad.
He should run away.
Or to stop it all.
No matter how bad it is, you can't stare into the abyss in the mirror.
Because...this is unlucky.
It's like some kind of flag before death.
But for some reason, Yi Lin felt that in front of that darkness, it was extremely difficult for Yi Lin to breathe and think, and her mind went blank, leaving only confusion.
etc?
Why is it blank?
Blank space and darkness are obviously difficult to associate together.
The ordinary mirror in front of me seems to have become an abyss, or a passage connecting the abyss. It seems that as long as you cross this mirror, you can reach another world.
Suddenly.
A hand suddenly emerged from the abyss.
It was a pale palm.
From the dark mirror, a pale palm suddenly appeared.
Black and white, like a painting.
Yilin's thoughts, which seemed to have been frozen by the darkness, came to life again the moment the palm appeared.
When Yi Lin saw the hand slowly reaching "this way" from the other side of the mirror, words that could not be separated into sentences appeared in Yi Lin's mind.
Those words didn't mean anything, and Yi Lin couldn't figure out why, but when she saw that palm, one meaningless word after another flashed through her mind.
When Yi Lin wanted to think about it carefully, she quickly forgot what the last flashed word was, leaving only a blank thought.
That palm cannot be remembered, recalled, explored, named, or speculated upon.
That dark mirror seemed to connect two worlds.
The world where Yi Lin lives.
And the world where that palm lies.
The palms are getting bigger and bigger.
getting bigger.
Yi Lin's expression suddenly changed drastically.
A finger, silently, penetrated the barrier of time and space, penetrated the mirror, and penetrated from the "other side".
That finger...is huge.
On the pale fingers, the slightly sharp but seemingly carefully manicured black nails were actually a bit bigger than Yi Lin's face.
Those are not human hands!
Oh, of course it can't be a human... To be precise, that's not a palm that should exist on a normal human body!
At that moment when the huge fingers slightly squeezed out of the mirror.
On the dark mirror surface, with the finger as the center, ripples ripple out in circles.
The ripples reached the edge of the mirror and turned into waves of horrifying distortions. The wall behind the mirror suddenly twisted into various weird shapes, like a whirlpool in the deep sea.
Along with the terrifying distortion and vibration, the entire mirror made a clicking sound, as if it was overwhelmed, as if it would be crushed by that terrible finger at any time.
No!
Yilin suddenly woke up.
Never let that finger fully extend!
It is absolutely impossible for this mirror to allow that palm to completely stretch out from the strange world behind the mirror, but just the first exposure of a pitch-black nail made Yi Lin feel the pressure of death. If the whole finger could be stretched out
The consequences will be disastrous!
When Yi Lin came back to her senses, a chill ran down her spine, and drops of sweat dripped down her hair. Yi Lin did not hesitate, and crazily activated the blood jasmine. With the blessing of Nie Hongxiu's "form change", with Yi Lin as the center, countless hair-like shapes
Bloodshot blood surged towards the "mirror" and strangled.
He did this not to fight off the finger, nor to trim the finger's nails, nor to naively think that he could cut off half of the finger with this little strength.
Yi Lin's purpose... is very simple!
Crash--
Countless blood threads enveloped it, and in the blink of an eye, the ordinary and ordinary mirror was wrapped in the blood threads of blood jasmine, like a blood cocoon.
Yi Lin drove countless blood threads regardless of consumption, strangulating, strangulating, and strangulating in the blood cocoon.
finally.
The blood streaks receded like a tide and reshaped into the shape of a short sword in Yi Lin's hand.
After the bloodshot strangulation, only a large piece of thin glass slag was left on the ground, and there was no longer a strange ink shadow on it.
That finger... retreated!
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Yi Lin sat down on the ground, panting heavily, her expression solemn, and she was silent for a long time.
