Chenglie High School is the name of this high school located in the capital of Country R.
Now, the college entrance examination is approaching. On the blackboard in the classroom, the countdown number of the college entrance examination reminds every student that they are about to face the most important exam in their lives. The college entrance examination in RR country is divided into the general entrance examination (also called the central examination) and the self-enrollment examination of each university, and this countdown is the self-enrollment examination.
Of course, for Gao Ying and the others, they were facing a more important exam, a life-and-death exam.
Twenty candidates are scattered in 5 different classes in the third grade, each class has 4 students.
At this time, it was already noon, and twenty candidates gathered in the school cafeteria and began to discuss what to do next.
Because so far, most people have not seen the devil, so many of the candidates who joined this time have not realized the seriousness of the problem. There are even a few who are more excited, thinking that this exam is the same as an online game, and the final reward is that they can get immortal life. Even though Gao Ying has repeatedly emphasized that this exam is very dangerous, for a group of senior high school graduates, staying in this environment that is almost the same as the school they used to attend, it is really difficult for them to have enough sense of urgency.
Of course, for this group of new candidates, they will not be told about the concepts of "Devil Messenger", "Cave", and Hell and Abyss level exams, and... that skeletons can cheat while their eyes are closed. Gao Ying reckoned that half of the fifteen new examinees in front of him would survive.
"I have to emphasize one thing... Cheating is absolutely forbidden. Even if you are not careful, you must never see the answers on other people's exam papers. Do you understand?"
"Well... that is to say..." A boy wearing glasses said, "If you cheat, the skull on the test paper will be..."
"Kill you. You don't have to take any chances. Of course, leaving this school during the exam will have the same result. Those who don't believe it can try it, but it must be at the cost of their own lives."
"The matter of the old teaching building... We have already inquired about it." The next person to speak was Ji Yixuan, "This is a teaching building located on the west side of the school. That teaching building has been abandoned for more than ten years, but why did it happen Abandonment has always been unclear... People in the school say that you can't enter that teaching building."
As a result, many people showed nervous expressions, but a few candidates were very excited, thinking that this was a very exciting adventure. This is like a routine in those horror online games, playing a copy and getting rewards. However, they overlooked the point that death in the game can be repeated, but here... it is impossible. Once dead, it is impossible to resurrect... only Gao Ying is an exception.
"During the exam, if candidates want to explore the school on their own, try to group up with three people, and try to avoid moving at night. During the period... try to avoid mirrors or any reflective objects." Gao Ying continued to explain some precautions, and Regarding staying away from mirrors and reflective objects, Agnes adopted the advice provided by her. After all, her father is an Abyss-level candidate, and the information he can provide is naturally very precious. In addition, Gao Ying did not say that both Dong Xie and Agnes have a certain degree of ability to perceive the devil. For Gao Ying, this ability needs to be used to the maximum. Constantly loses function. Therefore, it is obviously inappropriate to give it to new candidates for free.
"very strange… "
In the distance from the cafeteria, several other students were paying attention to Gao Ying and the others.
"Gao Ying, and Ji Yixuan and the others, why are they so familiar with people from other classes?"
"Hmm... it's kind of weird..."
Takashima Yoko and Nishimoto Yuki, and four other friends in the same class, Takahashi Shoji, Yamazaki Shinya, Nakamori Yoshiko and Kurosawa Natsumi began to discuss about exploring the old school building.
"Look... that's Yoko Takashima!" At this time, Dong Xie noticed Yoko Takashima, "Gao Ying, you told me that Yoko Takashima and Xueying Nishimoto were discussing going to the old school building, right?" ?”
"Hmm..." Gao Ying nodded and said, "I don't know yet, whether we should let them go."
"Maybe... they shouldn't be allowed to go?" Dong Xie said: "Gao Ying, think about it, if they go, there may be some serious consequences. Isn't that the case with many horror movies? Open the taboo... "
"Dong Xie...don't forget one thing, we are examinees. If we can't solve the exam questions, even if we are not in any danger during the exam, we will surely die when we go back. There is no doubt about this. Therefore, we are thinking about avoiding danger Under the premise, the first thing to consider is how to solve the test questions."
"Yes... is that so?"
Of course, Gao Ying was not unaware of this. Maybe these people's entry into the old school building will become some kind of opportunity to trigger the curse. However, Gao Ying felt that if the curse was only inside the old teaching building, then they would have to enter there to find clues to solve the problem. This is very dangerous for them, but if the curse spreads to the entire school, Gao Ying and the others will have more opportunities to take the initiative. However, the consequences are also terrible. Ordinary students in the school may also be implicated by the curse and die. It's just... In the struggle of life and death, Gao Ying has already realized that it is impossible to survive blindly in kindness in this exam. He watched Welvin brutally kill the candidates one by one with his own eyes. They were abandoned by God after all...
It's easy to take the moral high ground, provided...it's not against one's self-interest. Gao Ying has clearly realized this point. Now, he must give priority to how to keep himself alive, how to keep Ji Yixuan, Dong Xie and others alive. Only in this way can a cohesive candidate group be established. He clearly realized that he could not survive on his own. In addition to providing convenience for cheating during the time when the skeleton closed his eyes, the candidates could also share their experiences and help each other at critical moments. This is especially true for special candidates like Dong Xie and Agnes. After receiving rewards, some rewards can even help other candidates (for example, Qin Yexunyi's teleportation reward).
"Should we explore the old school building together?" Ji Yixuan made another suggestion at this time: "In this way we can obtain first-hand information... "
"No... just wait and see what happens."
When Gao Ying said to wait and see what happened, he took a special look at Ji Yixuan. The latter, on the other hand, immediately understood Gao Ying's intentions. This is the same as when he was in Saikalun Prison. Gao Ying hopes to use these students who are not candidates to explore a dangerous place with devils for them. As long as one person comes back alive, Gao Ying can get some clues that can be used to solve the problem from his mouth. As for whether to enter the teaching building, it can be judged according to the subsequent development of the situation. Ji Yixuan really admired Gao Ying's decisiveness and responsiveness, but at the same time... Gao Ying gradually became a little cold-hearted. But this is also natural, Ji Yixuan is clearly aware of how difficult it is to survive in this hellish exam scene. They don't have much room to sympathize with these people living in parallel worlds.
As for Agnes, she had also seen Gao Ying's thoughts. In terms of cruelty, she is still far above Gao Ying. To her, she doesn't care about the life and death of anyone in this parallel world. Even if all the students in this school die, she will not feel anything. Gao Ying has such decisive power, making such a decision in an instant, he really deserves to be a person with the blood of the Gerzwaren family like her.
At this time, a thunder and lightning sounded outside, and suddenly, the chopsticks in Yoko Takashima's hand fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with you?" Kurosawa Natsumi who was sitting opposite her smiled and said, "You don't seem to be such a timid person, Yoko Takashima."
"Yes... yes..." Yoko Takashima was also a little puzzled at this time, why she was suddenly so timid.
"So... if it doesn't rain tonight, then choose to go into the old teaching building tonight. After all, maybe we will have something to do in the next few days. Before graduation, let's go and experience the true meaning of this campus legend." Nishimoto Xueying With a sneer, he said, "I can't wait."
"No... but..." Yoshiko Nakamori, who was wearing a pair of thick bottle-bottomed glasses, scratched her head timidly, and said, "Then... um, what I want to say is, there can't really be devils, right? In that teaching building? "
