Chapter 110 Evening Study (VIII)
8:03, Classroom 605.
Ye Sui sat on the chair, took off his shirt and wiped his body.
While helping him, Hong Yang fiercely questioned him, "Who are you calling 'fool'? And you're drawing a pig's head. I saw you were reading a book seriously, but you were actually daydreaming?"
He looked very proud and proud, showing no trace of the worry he had just shown.
Ye Sui lowered his head and let Hong Yang scold him obediently. When Hong Yang got happy with the scolding, he raised his face and called out "Yang Yang" in a low and soothing voice...
Mu Yu had just put on the clean coat his brother had given him and was thinking over there.
"Abandon... The scarecrow has appeared before, and Old Wolf has also appeared before. This copy really corresponds to the four major campus ghost stories of science and engineering. Among these four stories, the only things that haven't appeared before are the words on the floor of the lounge and the man in the water pipe."
Su Mingyun followed along and recited the words: "abnormal... But didn't a monster that looked like a word appear in the previous round of the game?"
Fu Xiaoju complained: "Those are words that can penetrate everywhere, not just words that are on the ground... abode."
Mu Yu nodded: "Indeed, today's four levels should just match those four stories. The words on the floor of the lounge may be another way to play."
But there is one thing worth noting.
According to the rules, this "evening self-study" will end after the fourth get out of class, and the copy time limit will also end at that time, which means that they will not experience the fourth round of recess games.
If there is a fourth hidden player in this copy, then they may only be able to find him in the fourth class based on the existing experience and clues.
But the problem is that the ways in which copies hide players are becoming more and more sophisticated.
This time, Ye Sui was thrown directly onto the rooftop, lying flat on his back, and was nearly drowned by the accumulated rainwater. So what about the remaining two players? Where were they hiding?
Ye Sui put on the clean coat that Hong Yang lent him.
There is some difference in their body shapes, but fortunately Hong Yang likes to wear loose clothes, and when she wears them on Ye Sui, it can barely cover his body.
Ye Sui had just finished reading the rules of the game for this copy and talked about something.
"After I fell asleep, I was completely unconscious for a long time. Then I suddenly felt like I was being drenched by the rain. At that time, I felt that my clothes were dry. It was probably an hour later that I was woken up by Brother Chenxi."
"What do you mean?" Jing Qiao didn't understand the hidden meaning in his words.
Mu Chenxi narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you think you regained consciousness at the beginning of the second class?"
Ye Sui nodded and said calmly, "Yes."
"You don't have a similar situation, do you?" Mu Chenxi looked at Su Mingyun.
Su Mingyun was stunned and shook her head repeatedly: "No, I feel like I've been feeling a little suffocated since I fell asleep!"
"You were a hidden player in the first round of the game. When you were transferred to the dungeon, the first class had already begun," Mu Chenxi said, "That's in line with the rules."
Everyone's thoughts suddenly quickened.
Mu Yu analyzed: "In other words, the hidden players probably only became vaguely aware after the corresponding class started? Ye Sui, you felt that your body was dry at that time, but it was raining outside. You should have been outside for an hour at that time..."
His eyes moved slightly: "So, the hidden player may not be released until the corresponding class starts?"
Everyone was stunned.
Fu Xiaoju's brain was stuck: "What does 'released' mean... abolish?!"
Mu Yu: "That is to say, until that time they appeared in the location where they were later found. Before that, they did not exist anywhere in this building and were completely erased by the copy! ...above!"
Jing Qiao: "Ah, so that's why we couldn't find anyone when we searched before? ... abrasion!"
Su Mingyun: "That shouldn't be the case, right? After all, even if the dungeon now puts all the hidden players in front of us, it's still hard for us to find them... Just like Ye Sui, who would have thought that he would be transferred to the rooftop? If it weren't for the clues revealed by the monsters in the break games and his voice, we would never have guessed it! ...absolute!"
Huang Jiajia: "Can you please not memorize English? My English is not that good..."
Fu Xiaoju: "Then you can recite something else!"
Huang Jiajia: "That makes me look like a loner, wuwuwuwuwu...bad! Damn! Fuck!"
Everyone: “…………” Your vocabulary is quite large!
Hong Yang frowned: "I feel like the last hidden player will be hard to find."
"Indeed," Mu Yu thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. We are already halfway through the process. Where are the clues to the monster generator? Ye Sui, Su Mingyun, you two are hidden players, don't you have any other clues?"
Su Mingyun scratched his head: "I didn't feel anything..."
Ye Sui also looked at himself, moved a little, and suddenly, his expression became subtle.
Hong Yang asked sharply: "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Sui seemed to want to say something but stopped.
"Tell the truth!" Hong Yang glared at him.
Ye Sui covered his forehead: "I feel a little pain in my butt..."
Everyone: “???”
Their eyes were all focused on Ye Sui's butt.
A hint of embarrassment blushed over Ye Sui's pale face, and he touched his butt.
Lu Zhongnian stood beside him, tilted his head to take a look, and reminded: "You touched the wrong place, you need to touch a little further back, is there something in your pants?"
"?" Ye Sui stretched his hand back again, "It seems like there is something in my pants..."
Fu Xiaoju: "Hey man, what did you hide in your pants, a torpedo?"
"..." Ye Sui, "Can you guys help me block it? Let me feel it and try."
Jing Qiao and Su Mingyun blinked their eyes: "No need to avoid us, we don't mind~"
Ye Sui: “…………” His face turned completely red.
For the sake of the mental health of his relatives and friends, Mu Yu still took Lu Chongnian's little hand... and the hand of his cold-faced brother, and stood in front of Ye Sui.
Hong Yang was watching the show, Mu Yu glanced at him and said, "Now I know where those two words and pig head came from."
Hong Yang froze: "... Damn it!"
What Ye Sui pulled out from his pants was a short piece of dead branch.
He looked confused.
He had no recollection of ever picking up such a dead branch, let alone putting it in his pants. He was not a pervert...wait.
Ye Sui's face changed, and he touched his right trouser pocket and said, "My trouser pocket was punctured. I picked up a leaf before entering the teaching building today and put it in this trouser pocket."
Lu Zhongnian asked: "Ginkgo leaves?"
"right!"
"That ginkgo leaf is gone now?"
“It’s gone.”
Lu Zhongnian touched his pocket and took out a golden ginkgo leaf.
Today, he also picked up a ginkgo leaf before entering this teaching building in another world, but the shape of this leaf did not change.
Mu Yu, Mu Chenxi, Fu Xiaoju... almost everyone began to touch their bodies subconsciously.
Then everyone paused, their eyes met in the air, and they said in unison: "...You all picked up leaves?!"
The classroom became eerily quiet.
Fu Xiaoju was shocked and asked, "Did you really pick them all up?"
Jing Qiao: "I didn't pick this piece up today. I picked it up several days ago and kept it in my pencil case..."
Huang Jiajia: "I picked mine up today..."
There is no doubt that all of them have a ginkgo leaf at this moment.
But after most people found their own leaves, they discovered that theirs was the same as Lu Chongnian's, still looking the same as when they picked it up, a small golden fan.
Only Ye Suihe...
Su Mingyun opened her advanced mathematics textbook and found that the leaf that was originally stuck inside had turned into a green sprout.
She picked up the sprout and looked at it in amazement.
"So only the hidden player's leaves have changed?" Fu Xiaoju muttered, "One is a tender bud, and the other is a dead branch. What does this mean?"
Mu Yu looked out the classroom window.
Classroom 605 and classroom 211 are located on the same side of the corridor. There used to be a tall ginkgo tree outside the windows of these two classrooms.
But at this moment, the ginkgo tree disappeared.
The fog was ten meters away, and in this space, only heavy rain was falling.
Mu Yu stood up and walked towards the window, and everyone followed him.
They opened the window and looked down.
Su Mingyun said uncertainly: "I just thought that the fog left such a long distance just to tell us that it was still raining in the dungeon. It was designed specifically for Ye Sui's round..."
"I thought so before." Mu Yu thought thoughtfully.
But now it seems obvious that the copy designed such a space on both sides of the teaching building just for that tree.
"...But where is the tree?" Huang Jiajia whispered, "Is our mission to find that tree?"
Mu Yu's eyes gradually changed.
He figured it out.
"No, our mission should be to conjure up that tree," he said, turning back to Ye Sui and Su Mingyun, "Throw the things down and see."
"Ah? Throw it down?" Su Mingyun was confused.
"Yes, throw it down. It's okay. At worst we can just climb out the window on the first floor and pick it up."
After Mu Yu said this, Su Mingyun stretched his hand out of the window.
She swallowed, loosened her index finger and thumb, and the tiny green sprout fell down.
It, along with the rain, quickly disappeared into the dark night and out of their sight.
The rain hit the light grey concrete floor, splashing.
The water flows together and flows freely to the inclined place.
But there was no movement on the ground downstairs.
Everyone was leaning on the windowsill and staring, frowning slightly.
Lu Zhongnian glanced at Ye Sui and said, "Throw yours down too and see."
Huang Jiajia said weakly: "Do you want to throw more?"
"One of them holds a young bud, and the other holds a dead branch. The young bud represents spring, and the dead branch represents winter. If the ultimate goal of the dungeon is for us to obtain the ginkgo tree at this season, then it is an autumn tree. Its growth order is not spring, summer, autumn, and winter, but winter, spring, summer, and autumn. The dead branch is the starting point."
Lu Zhongnian's words enlightened the others.
Ye Sui threw the dead branch in his hand down.
Then, a spectacular scene took place.
The dead branch turned into a black dot and hit the ground... In an instant, the concrete floor cracked and spider web patterns appeared!
The road surface suddenly arched up and the soil turned over, as if something was about to break out of the ground, accompanied by a rumbling sound coming from the ground!
This muffled sound was like the sound before a volcano erupted. It became more and more dense and violent, as if a mysterious force was brewing...
Under the water of the rain, with everyone's heartbeats racing...
A sharp dead branch pierced through the soil.
It paused for a moment, as if the breakthrough had consumed too much of its energy and it needed a short rest.
Then it shot upward.
Another jump.
…
The soil loosened, and it began to break free from it...
The thick trunk, the forked branches, everything surged out of the soil... The cracks in the ground became larger and larger, as if nothing could stop the tree from expanding. It stabbed into the night sky...
This rapid growth even scared Huang Jiajia back two steps.
Jing Qiao, Su Mingyun, and Fu Xiaoju all watched it with their mouths wide open, while Mu Yu and the others watched intently.
The dead tree continued to grow upwards, passing the first, second, and third floors, its branches spreading out and gradually becoming larger...
It soared straight to the fifth floor, reaching the height they remembered, before suddenly stopping its growth right under their eyes.
At this moment, the dead branches stretched out in all directions, like arms spreading out in joy.
They welcomed the rain and breathed happily...and sprouted densely.
Huang Jiajia was frightened again and staggered back a bit.
He touched his chest and murmured, "...I'm holding my breath."
Everyone was holding their breath.
This powerful vitality rushing towards him was more shocking than any scene that had ever appeared in the copy.
They waited quietly, and only started discussing after confirming that there were no other changes...
Mu Yu groaned, "I feel like when this tree turns into its autumn look, the monster generator might be on it."
"So if we can't find the hidden player, we're done...?" Jing Qiao said.
Ye Sui analyzed slowly: "What is clear now is that only those who picked up leaves are selected as players in the dungeon. Who are the remaining players who haven't appeared yet? Who among them picked up leaves?"
Mu Yu: "Well... Yan Shaowen and Zhuzhu definitely didn't take the leaves. They don't seem to be interested in this thing."
Fu Xiaoju looked hesitant and said, "I'm not sure about Jiang Shuyue. Anyway, I haven't seen him pick up anything since he and I were assigned to the same group. But I don't know if he picked up anything before that."
As for Li Ke and Chang Sen, the same thing applies: no one is with them, so no one knows what their situation is.
"Forget it, there's no point thinking about these things now," Mu Yu glanced at his phone, "It's 8:15 now, and there's still half an hour before the end of this class. Let's go check the teaching building again to see where the monster is."
The levels can only be completed one step at a time, and their focus now is on the round of mini-games that will be played during the break.
Only by knowing the true form of the monsters can you control them and use them to find the hidden players.
Everyone nodded in unison: "Okay!"
…Then Mu Yu was ruthlessly kicked out of the search team.
Reason: Love to sleep too much.
He was very dissatisfied! He felt that there must be a way to overcome this problem! The word "give up" did not exist in his life dictionary!
Hong Yang said dryly, "Do you know what Brother Xi's face looked like when Lu Zhongnian carried you in last class? Be careful, the next round Brother Xi may bring out something other than a bomb, but a Gatling gun."
…Mu Yu obediently sat back on the stool!
While his brother's back was turned, he quietly and solemnly reminded Lu Chongnian to be careful... Then Mu Chenxi turned around sharply and glared at him, and Mu Yu was so scared that he let go!
Lu Zhongnian couldn't help laughing and rubbed his head: "Is your brother a monster?"
Mu Chenxi stood at the door, his eyes sharp as a knife as he looked at the two of them.
Lu Zhongnian restrainedly and gently rubbed Mu Yu's ear with his fingers, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, your brother loves you very much."
So, naturally, he would not hurt the people he cared about.
Mu Yu was touched.
He quietly leaned over and glanced at his brother. His brother had his arms folded across his chest, looking like, "If you don't let this guy over here, I'm going to get really mad."
Mu Yu awkwardly let go of Lu Zhongnian's clothes and whispered, "Then you all have to be careful."
…
Soon, the remaining seven people left the classroom.
In the huge room 605, in the blink of an eye, only he and the bored Hong Yang were left.
Hong Yang started to memorize English words again. He was afraid that he would fall asleep in the classroom, which would be too embarrassing.
He noticed that Mu Yu's pants were still wet and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Administration..."
"There's nothing I can do even if it makes you uncomfortable. How about letting me wear your pants?" Mu Yu glanced at him.
Hong Yang recited loudly: "advance, adventure, advertising..."
Pretend not to hear.
Mu Yu laughed.
Then he quieted down.
He turned sideways to Hong Yang with a calm look in his eyes. The dim light shone from above him, illuminating only half of his face, while the other half was hidden in the shadows.
He quietly moved his right hand and touched his trouser pocket.
There's something hidden there.
Mu Yu's Adam's apple rolled.
He pretended to speak casually: "By the way, Yangyang."
"Agency, agreement...what?"
"You have participated in three dungeons so far, have you ever felt that your 'sight' disappeared when passing by a vending machine?"
When Hong Yang heard this strange question, he stopped memorizing words.
He frowned and recalled: "I don't remember, I have no impression, why, why do you ask?"
"Nothing," Mu Yu looked away, "Just now when I went to exchange items, I felt that my surroundings were empty for a moment... Maybe it was an illusion."
