Chapter 104 Evening Study (Part 2)
There is still no mobile phone signal, and there is no way to know how many players finally entered this copy.
Mu Yu was memorizing mathematical and physical formulas while opening the "Science and Technology Campus Navigation" app.
As soon as the app is expanded, a map appears on the screen - a partial map of the second floor of Building 5.
The map only showed his classroom, 211, the four classrooms surrounding 211, the lounge diagonally across the corridor, and the stairs leading to the third floor.
Mu Yu tried to shrink or enlarge the map, but it didn't work because the scale of the map was obviously fixed.
But as he walked towards the classroom door, he found that the map began to move - a new classroom appeared in the upper left corner, and a part of the lower right corner was swallowed up.
The map will change in real time based on the player's position.
At present, Mu Yu has not found the rules of the mini-games mentioned in the rules during recess on the app. He suspects that the copy will not be shown to the players until the get out of class is almost over.
There are still more than ten minutes before the get out of class ends. He can't just stay in the classroom like an idiot, right?
After thinking for a while, Mu Yu took out a pen and paper and wrote down the destination: Classroom 201.
Classroom 201 is located at the west end of the corridor. From here to there, you can check the entire second floor.
He put the paper on the podium and walked out of the classroom.
…
The corridor is dark.
The sound of rain filled the entire teaching building.
Mu Yu didn't know what the east and west sides of the teaching building were like, but by observing the situation outside the classroom windows across the corridor, he could confirm that the fog on the north and south sides was about ten meters away from the teaching building.
The rain kept falling in this short space, and the ginkgo tree outside the window of 211 had disappeared.
Mu Yu looked at the entire corridor carefully.
There was no one in sight, and no sound was heard. It seemed as if he was the only player on the entire floor.
His sight quickly locked onto the lounge across the street...
I still think there’s something wrong with this room… let’s go take another look!
He slipped out quickly.
Just like before, the door outside the lounge opened easily, and the tables and chairs inside were still the same and placed in the same position as before.
As for the door leading to the coffee room, it was still closed.
Mu Yu frowned.
Could it be that this lounge is just an ordinary lounge and has nothing to do with this copy?
He could only leave the room, close the door, and turn to walk west along the corridor.
Soon, he found that even memorizing the formula was useless when he got to the corridor... He was so sleepy...
No, change it... change the back...
3.1415926…535…yawn…8979…yawn…3238…4…6…
…
…
"Game countdown——"
"three--"
"two--"
"one--"
A voice that could not be distinguished between male and female, which echoed throughout the teaching building, suddenly woke Mu Yu up.
"--start!"
He suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sleeping in the middle of the corridor!
And the next second, that cold voice, as if amplified through the radio, called out another set of numbers:
"one two three--"
Mu Yu froze. He didn't have time to check the rules of the game on the app. He jumped up based on his intuition of these three words.
"wood--"
It’s too late!
He acted decisively, unlocked his phone screen and held it up in front of him.
"--people!"
In an instant, the body froze.
Dark corridor.
Mu Yu stood stiffly in the middle.
The phone screen was emitting bright light, and a pop-up window appeared on the Polytechnic Campus Navigation App.
[Mini game 1: One, two, three, wooden man! ]
【Game rules:
1. While the ghost is shouting "One, two, three, wooden man", the player can move around freely; when the ghost finishes shouting the last word, the player must immediately stand still. Except for breathing and blinking, the player who moves is out.
2. If the player finds the ghost and taps the ghost's shoulder, the game ends early; if the player does not find the ghost, the game continues until the class bell rings.
3. If the player enters a shelter surrounded by four sides and closes the door, he can move freely even when he is stationary and will not be punished.
4. Please note that there is only one ghost in the game. 】
ghost?
Mu Yu's eyes moved slightly.
The next second, he tensed his body.
...something was approaching him.
A cold air surged from behind.
He stared at the screen of his phone, but it was too bright and he couldn't confirm what was approaching him through the reflection.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
In the darkness, the thing approached quickly... stuck to his back, and enveloped him completely.
Mu Yu's limbs were even frozen stiff by the coldness that was so close to him.
In the peripheral vision of his left eye, a straight black object slowly stretched out from behind him... like a skinny arm... but it was completely black, like some strange shadow...
In the blink of an eye, the arm retracted.
Mu Yu's heart was beating fast.
calm.
As long as he follows the rules of the game, monsters shouldn't be able to do anything to him.
By the way, is this thing behind him a "ghost"? Then all he needs to do is tap this guy's shoulder?
"one two three--"
Before he could think any more, the voice that was indistinguishable between male and female sounded faintly again.
——Right behind him!
Mu Yu was about to move, but something flashed through his mind in an instant, causing him to stop moving.
...Wait, something doesn't seem right!
"——wooden man."
silence.
Deathly silence.
Mu Yu's chest heaved, and he was in confusion.
...He didn't move, but why didn't the monster move? It could have killed him in that instant, right?
Then, the cold voice that echoed throughout the teaching building gave the command again -
"one two three--"
Mu Yu was startled and reacted immediately.
——The sound came from upstairs!
The real sound came from upstairs!
But the command just now came from behind him - it was the thing behind him that was imitating the voice of a "ghost"!
It is inducing him to break the rules, it is not the "ghost" mentioned in the rules of the game!
So what is it?!
Mu Yu gritted his teeth and turned around suddenly.
At this moment, the picture froze.
A long, thin shadow, darker than the darkness in the corridor.
It could probably reach the ceiling, but now it bent down deeply like a snake.
The two arms stretched straight out to the sides, about three meters wide, making it look like a huge cross, but it was definitely not a cross because it had a head.
It lowered its head deeply, and got very close to Mu Yu's upturned face.
There were no eyes or nose on this black face, only a white mouth like a bottomless pit, which was opened to the extreme, like the mouth of a shark. The cold and damp breath was sprayed on Mu Yu's face, and his head was about to be bitten off and swallowed.
——
Mu Yu suddenly lowered his body and crawled under the monster's arm!
The monster froze for a second.
After Mu Yu had run two or three steps, it turned around and quickly caught up!
Mu Yu stretched his legs as far as he could and rushed to the stairs, bumping into two people coming up from downstairs!
He was suddenly confused.
Why are there still people downstairs? ? Weren't they cleared away? ?
When he looked carefully, he was furious!
——Wood, morning, and dawn!
How could it be Mu Chenxi? !
Why is there a strange boy here? ! !
His face, as if struck by lightning, appeared in Mu Chenxi's eyes.
Mu Chenxi's eyes turned and saw the strange black shadow chasing after him. He reached out and pulled him upstairs: "Go up!"
...Mu Yu held back a hundred thousand questions and turned around to rush upstairs!
Just then——
"--Wood!"
“Can you please not go up there?” The boy following Mu Chenxi howled like a ghost while crawling towards the stairs!
"--head!"
The black shadow then floated up the stairs!
"--people!"
The three of them stopped on the stairs!
…
The whole building fell silent again.
Only the sound of rapid breathing was left, interweaving with each other in the dark stairs.
Rustle, rustle, the sound also became slower and slower.
A cold gaze was floating behind them.
"It...it's behind me..." the strange boy said tremblingly, probably without moving his lips, and his voice was very unclear.
"Don't move!" Mu Yu spoke without moving his lips.
They stood there frozen, cold sweat seeping out from their backs.
The silence amplifies all the subtle sounds, and my heart beats rapidly in the tense atmosphere.
Mu Yu calmed down his breathing and asked guiltily, "Brother... why are you here..."
Mu Chenxi was behind him, her voice was very low and her emotions could not be heard: "If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have known you were doing this kind of thing."
Mu Yu: “…………”
Has he been exposed for a long time?!
"...Is there no one stopping you outside?" he asked unwillingly.
"Are you referring to your two classmates?" Mu Chenxi sneered.
"..." It seems that it was stopped, but it didn't work.
Mu Yu closed his eyes.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
The sound always lingered behind them.
A whimper of fear emanated from the boy's throat.
Mu Yu calmed himself down and tried to divert the other party's attention.
"Um... classmate... why are you here? We knew this kind of thing would happen, so we cleared the stairs in advance..."
"I, I don't know... I've been here the whole time... uh... Xixi didn't leave and I didn't leave either, and suddenly it became like this..."
"…Who is Sissi?"
"Wu...the secretary of the league committee of the class next door...wuwuwu...don't tell her, she doesn't know that I like her..."
...have they started talking nonsense? How would they know which class is the "next class"...
Mu Yu was speechless.
He could only think of one possibility for this situation.
"...Did you go to the toilet around five o'clock..."
“Wow… How did you know I was squatting for half an hour… You guys are so scary…”
Mu Yu: “…”
Because they didn't find him only because he went to the toilet when they were searching the building!
He didn't want to know how long it took a stranger to poop! !
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
The voice was always lingering behind them, but the voice of the "ghost" was still not heard.
Mu Yu could only continue to make small talk.
"What's your name? My name is Mu Yu, and the one behind me is my brother, Mu Chenxi..."
"My name is Huang Jiajia..."
"You have been on the first floor all this time?"
“No, I was on the fourth floor, wuwuwu… I didn’t know when those words appeared on the blackboard. I felt something was wrong, so I ran to the first floor… Come to think of it, I seemed to have seen you… Were you the one lying on the corridor on the second floor just now… I thought you were dead, I was so scared…”
Mu Yu: “…”
Mu Chenxi: “…”
“Wuwuwu…” Huang Jiajia’s voice was shaking more and more, and becoming more and more unclear. “It, it seems to have bitten my head… I’m going to die…”
Mu Yu's face changed slightly: "Hold on, as long as you follow the rules, the monster can't kill you. Also, after the ghost starts shouting one, two, three, wooden man, the monster seems to have a one-second freezing time, so take this time to run quickly, don't freeze there!"
"I know, I know... Woohoo... It seems to be licking me... Woohoo..." Perhaps to calm himself down, Huang Jiajia suddenly started to mutter, "Odd changes, even does not change, the sign looks at the quadrant..."
Mu Yu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he shouted: "--Don't think about studying during the break!"
It's too late.
Huang Jiajia let out a shrill scream, and the next second, a slender black shadow flashed in front of Mu Yu——
Because he also violated the rules.
His lips moved.
The black shadow expanded several times in an instant and pounced on him like a giant covering the sky. Mu Yu gritted his teeth and was about to move when Mu Chenxi pulled him behind him.
"--elder brother?!"
Mu Yu shouted out loud.
Suddenly, something popped out from behind the dark shadow!
The thing stuck to the side of the shadow's head, and the shadow's head was impacted, squeezed, and deformed by the thing.
Severe deformation -
Its body was tilted to the side by the force, and that side was the handrail of the stairs.
——The black shadow was knocked down the stairs!
Mu Yu and the others looked upstairs in shock.
Hong Yang was standing in the middle of the stairs, panting, holding a baseball bat!
"one two three--"
The sound of "ghost" came from upstairs and spread throughout the building.
Mu Chenxi said: "Run!"
The four of them immediately rushed upstairs!
Huang Jiajia struggled to follow at the end of the team, crying and shouting, "I'm sorry, I forgot the rules!"
Messy footsteps sounded on the stairs, and Mu Yu shouted without turning back: "Is your head okay?!"
"I feel like my skull is cracked a little bit, woohoo, but it's okay, I'm still alive, woohoo!"
Everyone: “…………” What a strong head!!
Mu Yu asked Hong Yang: "Where is Ye Sui?!"
"I don't know," Hong Yang panted, "I fell asleep, and when I woke up he was gone!"
"Did you buy this stick from a vending machine?!"
"Yeah, there's one in the corridor on the third floor. I just heard you guys and went to get one!"
They rushed up to the third floor.
"Wood--"
Mu Yu noticed a huge wooden cabinet on the left side of the stairs.
[If the player enters a shelter surrounded by four sides and closes the door, he can move freely even during the stationary period without being punished. ]
He asked Hong Yang: "Can this cabinet hide people?!"
"Yes, Ye Sui and I opened it when we checked, and there is space inside!"
"head--"
Mu Yu immediately rushed over, opened the cabinet door and got in. Hong Yang and Mu Chenxi followed closely on his left and right sides.
There is still a little space in the closet, enough for one more person.
Mu Yu shouted: “Huang Jiajia!”
Then he saw with his own eyes Huang Jiajia rushing to the classroom opposite, shouting, "Here I come!"
…………Not over there, brother!!
Bro, what's wrong with your eyes and ears? ! !
The last word of "ghost" is about to fall.
Mu Chenxi decisively closed the cabinet door.
"--people."
…
Rapid breathing crisscrossed in the small cabinet.
There was a gap in the cabinet door, but one couldn't see what was going on in the classroom through the gap.
Mu Yu and the others could only prick up their ears and listen carefully.
The classroom was quiet for a few seconds, and soon, Huang Jiajia's screams were heard.
"I stopped but it kept biting me. Ahhhh my head is going to split!"
The sounds of tables and chairs being banged against each other could be heard one after another, and it was obvious that Huang Jiajia had started to flee again!
Mu Chenxi said calmly: "Players are not allowed to enter the classroom after class. He violated the rules again."
Hong Yang panted and asked, "Should we ask him to leave the classroom immediately?"
...With a bang, Huang Jiajia rushed out of the classroom.
However, the moment he stepped out of the classroom, the moment he put one foot into the corridor, he broke the rules again.
Fortunately, he understood it this time.
He didn't stop foolishly, but rushed straight to the other end of the corridor, shouting as he rushed: "W-Wow, can I hit it? It just fell down the stairs!"
Mu Yu fell into deep thought.
Hong Yang was reckless and shouted, "Just give it a try!"
Two seconds later, they saw Huang Jiajia stagger through the gap.
“Ah ...
Mu Yu frowned, snatched the stick from Hong Yang's hand, reached out to push the cabinet door, but was grabbed by Mu Chenxi's wrist.
"elder brother?"
"Just now we were on the stairs, so Hong Yang was able to beat the monster downstairs. Now there is no good attack point in this position, so why not think of other ways first."
Hong Yang frowned and said, "Brother Xi is right, and this alone won't kill this monster..."
Mu Yu paused.
Huang Jiajia ran away while screaming, and the amazing thing is... he was really good at running away.
The monster was extremely fast, but he was able to dodge it time and time again. If it were Mu Yu, he might have been missing limbs by now.
Mu Yu calmed down and thought every minute.
"Did you leave the classroom during class? I wanted to search the second floor, but I fell asleep halfway through..."
Hong Yang was ashamed: "Me too, when I first woke up it was already 6:10, and then I fell asleep again not long after I left the classroom..."
Mu Yu turned his head to look at Mu Chenxi.
Mu Chenxi glanced at them, and his eyes seemed to say: Is this all you two experienced old players have?
Mu Yu's mouth twitched: "...Brother!"
Mu Chenxi said, "The game starts at six o'clock sharp. I found that I would fall asleep in the corridor no matter what, so I went back to the classroom every five minutes to search outside."
"First I saw you," Mu Chenxi glanced at Mu Yu, "sleeping in the classroom on the second floor. I couldn't wake you up, and I couldn't carry you on my back."
Mu Yu has a very bad habit when sleeping - once someone touches him, he moves around.
Struggling here and there like a grasshopper.
Not only his family knew this, but Hong Yang and Ye Sui also knew it.
Immediately, Hong Yang looked at him with an expression of laughing at him.
A string of dots appeared above Mu Yu's head.
"Then I saw you," Mu Chenxi glanced at Hong Yang, "sleeping in the middle of the corridor, and I couldn't wake you up."
"?" Hong Yang was dissatisfied, "Brother Xi, we have known each other for many years, why don't you carry me into the classroom?"
"You're talking in your sleep, saying that anyone who touches you is taking advantage of you," Mu Chenxi raised her lips, "I won't take advantage of my brother's high school classmate."
Hong Yang: “…………”
"I walked past you and headed west on the third floor. When I went down the stairs, I saw some messy things piled up at the corner of the stairs. The map showed that the place was the 'Performance Art Club's Utility Room'."
Hong Yang and Mu Yu were stunned.
"I accidentally stepped on an ugly toy in the middle of that pile of things. I couldn't tell what it was at the time, but now it seems that," Mu Chenxi's eyes turned thoughtfully, "that thing looks a bit like a small--"
Huang Jiajia turned around at some point and rushed towards them again.
The black shadow chased him angrily, with its arms outstretched and a terrifying growl coming from its mouth.
"--scarecrow."
In the corridor, Huang Jiajia finally had an accident.
He fell flat on his face, sprawled on the ground, and a dark shadow pounced on him from behind, as if it could swallow him whole in the blink of an eye.
The baseball bat was taken away from Mu Yu's hand.
The cabinet door was pushed open.
Before Mu Yu and Hong Yang could react, Mu Chenxi appeared in front of Huang Jiajia, with his legs apart, and swung the bat cleanly -
The black shadow screamed and flew seven or eight meters away, and fell heavily on the wall of the classroom!
Hong Yang was stunned.
Mu Yu was also dumbfounded... He closed his mouth, patted his chest, and sweated profusely: "I almost forgot, my brother used to play baseball and hit a home run..."
But again, this alone is not enough to deal with this monster.
The monster screamed and got up from the ground.
Mu Chenxi tilted his head, pointed at the red vending machine leaning against the corridor in front of him, and asked without turning his head: "Is there a lighter in that machine?"
Mu Yu and Hong Yang were startled.
If it's a scarecrow, you can burn it!
"Yes!" Hong Yang immediately followed Mu Yu and climbed out, "It's in this stage!"
However, before they could rush over, the black shadow monster suddenly disappeared on the spot.
They both paused for a moment, and Mu Chenxi also paused.
There was a noise upstairs and they all looked up.
Huang Jiajia knelt on the ground, gasping for breath: "Someone upstairs broke the rules?"
Mu Yu frowned: "...We are all breaking the rules and getting closer to the monster, why should the monster go up first?"
Unless, there is a player upstairs who did something more extreme than [thinking about study-related things during the break] or [taking action while supposed to be still], causing the monster to adjust the hunting priority?
But what other illegal actions could there be...
Mu Yu said: "Go up to the fourth floor and take a look!"
They rushed up to the fourth floor quickly and stopped at the stairs.
A rolling heat wave hit us in the face.
The bright firelight illuminated everything.
The black shadow monster was shaking and screaming violently in the middle of the corridor. It was enveloped by a huge ball of fire. It rushed around for a while and then fell to the side little by little.
Strands of black threads scattered out from its body, like falling straws.
It gradually collapsed, collapsed with a loud bang, piled up in the corner of the wall, and became motionless.
Crackling.
The flames continued to burn, as if they would never stop until the pile of waste grass was burned to ashes.
On the other side of the fire were Jing Qiao and Fu Xiaoju——
And Lu Chongnian, who was holding a lighter in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at them.
