Chapter 042: Chasing and Fighting
Draw a card, which one?
Qian Xiaomei swallowed and quickly scanned the six playing cards in front of her.
Their colors are different, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, but no purple. Could it mean "lack of life"?
In ancient times, there were many strange choices about "do you want red toilet paper or blue toilet paper" and "am I beautiful?". Abnormalities are always full of malice towards humans. Even if all roads do not lead to dead ends, it is difficult to have any good choices.
She thought so, but she didn't want to bear the cost of defying the rules.
Qian Xiaomei raised her left pinky finger and tapped the orange poker card in the air: "I choose this one."
Ding ding ding~
A grandiose bell rang, and the monster squeezed the flesh on his chest and read aloud the words on the card: "Now, I am the king. Put your feet on your head—"
At the same time, blood-red characters appeared in the air, outlining the sentence stroke by stroke, and within a few seconds, the character "王" was written.
Qian Xiaomei didn't hesitate, she immediately realized the rules of poker.
First, the other party uses certain rules to forcibly identify himself as the king.
Second, as in true King's Game form, something bad will definitely happen if the monster's demands are not fulfilled immediately.
The opponent’s first “trial” didn’t even disclose the rules, and the second one is likely to be equally opaque!
The red-haired girl jumped up on the spot, and the flexible limbs she had trained for many years successfully gave back to her owner at this moment.
Put your feet...on top of your head!
Brush, brush, brush.
Qian Xiaomei spun in the air. She first supported the ground with her hands, then arched her back in an inverted position, and touched the top of her head steadily with the soles of her feet in a judo posture.
When Qian Xiaomei was following the rules of poker, Liu Ping'an triggered the trap he had just set with a bang.
Balls of straps danced around the monster, tentatively wrapping around its intestines and limbs.
Pusha, Pusha.
Most of the straps missed, but some landed on the monster, which was a physical thing.
Secondly... Liu Ping'an narrowed his eyes and noticed that some of the straps were bounced a certain distance by the "air" above the monster.
It may well have invisible parts or helpers!
Click.
At the same second that Liu Ping'an launched the attack, the strange gun in Sun Yu's hand was charged, and the crosshairs were aimed at the "air" above the monster's head.
"Congratulations, congratulations~" The monster laughed playfully, and its body stretched to the extreme, winding in front of Sun Yu like a long snake, face to face with her.
"You are the second one, draw a card."
Gurgle.
Sun Yu nervously squeezed the trigger, raised his other hand slightly, and tapped the green poker.
She is not very good at judo, but she can do the moves in general. After all, everyone who can come here has been practicing ancient martial arts since childhood.
I hope to draw something related to aiming...
"Hehehe."
The monster snickered and licked his tongue. "Congratulations, congratulations, I am the king, *You are now——"
Pah.
Foreheads pressed together, vocal cords vibrating. "Stuff your intestines into your eyeballs."
“…”
Wild cards are generally unavoidable dead cards.
Sun Yu immediately realized that he might have drawn the worst card. At this moment, his brain was flipping through his past memories like a karaoke lantern.
Years of training, trying my best to pass the selection, signing with the idea of holding up the light for mankind... everything will end here.
"Don't be afraid, Sun Yu."
I'm... I'm not scared, Grandma. I'm really not scared. I'm just a little... sad.
Just because of this reason, just because of this rule, just - just can't do it for humanity, just, just... tears welled up in my eyes.
Sun Yu put her hand to her throat. This was the rule controlling her to play the "game".
She could see what her companions were doing and knew what they were going to do. They wanted to save me because they didn't want to see their companions die.
But grandma and the instructor have taught me this.
"Don't...save me."
Don't rescue me at this time, we don't know the rules well enough.
Don't take action at this time, the punishment link is more abnormal and it can take advantage of the rules.
"Don't regret it, Sun Yu."
Grandma, did you have the same idea at that time?
Big tears welled up in Sun Yu's eyes. He understood very well why his elite roommates would launch another reckless attack at this time.
Because we humans simply cannot control the desire to protect our companions!
Damn abnormality—
Sun Yu twisted his wrist, pulled out a short knife from his waist and pressed it against his abdomen.
She was calculating the time when her companions would come into contact with the monsters. As long as they enforced the rules at that time, the rules would temporarily favor humans.
I can do it and I must do it!
"Don't be silly! It's not as strong as you think!"
Qian Xiaomei roared and rushed forward with her sword. She was the only one here who could suppress the monster head-on, and she absolutely could not retreat.
Clang.
The sword clamped down hard on the sharp claws that were spitting out of the monster's throat, but the intestines squirmed softly and whizzed around like tentacles.
Qian Xiaomei used her superpowers to perform incredible mid-air movements. It was this ghostly, almost teleporting, movement that allowed her to delay the enemy for a moment.
Brush.
Sun Yu had already cut open her abdomen, but it was too painful. Her painkillers were not at hand, so she couldn't bring herself to dig it out.
"Ah."
The crisp swallowing sound made the monster tremble all over.
"Hee..." Three pairs of eyes emerged from the monster's twisted body, and each pair stared at Curry.
The black-haired girl covered her mouth with one hand and her stomach with the other, "Mmmm."
She felt a little nauseous...but completely manageable.
Curry stretched out his hand and gestured weakly: It's okay, the hidden part of this thing is a little smaller than the cantaloupe, so it's not too difficult to swallow.
“Hee…hee hee.”
In just a few seconds, the monster was cut by Qian Xiaomei at least six times, and at the same time stepped on several traps, emitting colorful light.
It was bubbling wildly and boiling!
"Captain, suppress it!"
Liu Ping'an rushed forward without hesitation, grabbed a dagger in one hand and stabbed it hard.
She got goosebumps all over her body, and inspiration burst out: "Ahhhh, kill it! It's not sealed!!"
"Guu!" Curry also nodded vigorously. What she swallowed was more like a part of the organ than the main body.
A severely injured monster will only become more frantic, and—
Whoosh, snap.
The monster twisted incredibly, curling itself up like a spring and springing towards Curry.
Any monster with a bit of personification will prioritize attacking the enemy that seals its body.
Qian Xiaomei instantly moved in front of Curry, cutting the monster in half with one sword and in four pieces with two swords.
"Not good..." Sun Yu lay on the ground, and warned in a hoarse voice: "Behind -"
Beep, clapper, beep.
Layer upon layer of mucus poured down from Curry's head. It turned out that there was a part of the monster on the roof. It was transparent and had been hiding in the light.
Curry's head was covered in layers of colloid, she was suffocating with difficulty, and her eyeballs were bulging outwards.
No, no, no!
"Ah—" Qian Xiaomei swung her heavy sword vigorously, screaming in despair. She had no way of cutting through the colloid, and the mucus was seeping from Curry's eyes, nose, and mouth.
Humans who have been entered by anomalies will either be transformed into anomalies, or... die in the most tragic way.
Mumble.
Curry was soaked in gel and couldn't speak, but everyone knew what she meant when she raised a finger with all her might.
Kill Me
Kill me now, this is your last chance.
The monster's remains haven't been "resurrected" yet, but it already possesses a better carrier, and will be reborn within Curry's body. Once the fusion is successful, it will likely gain sealed superpowers.
This guy has such diverse abilities, he must have killed many people.
Only at this time did the dormitory become quiet again.
Qian Xiaomei raised her sword high—
"Hey, what time is it? Please stop playing around in the dorm!"
The air began to flow again, and for some reason, human voices could be heard in the corridor.
Could it be that we have temporarily broken through the monster's territory?
Qian Xiaomei didn't care about anything else and kept shouting, "There's a monster in dormitory 104! It knows the rules and is fusing people with superpowers! Those with special abilities, please come and rescue them! Notify the rejection team—"
…
Some people are so uncultured.
After Chen Xiao'er finished shouting, she listened attentively.
Although there is no absolute correlation between academic qualifications and quality, the freshmen of Taoli University shouldn't make endless trouble on the first day, right?
She had just closed her mouth when she heard a series of crying coming from a dormitory.
"Help me—I'm in dormitory 104, help me, it's so scary, can anyone help me, please call the teacher over—"
Is this the legendary...school bullying?
Chen Xiao'er felt a little short of breath at first, and shrank back in fear, then she clenched her fists, and a flame rose from her chest.
No, what should I be afraid of? What I should be afraid of is the bullies!
Thump thump, thump thump.
She deliberately stamped her feet to give herself courage, ran quickly to dormitory 104 and took a deep breath: I heard that bad guys are most afraid of others having the courage to uphold justice, I must not show my weakness!
Xiao'ai clenched her fists and pounded on the door.
Boom!
Boom boom boom, boom boom boom!
"Open the door! Open the door for me! I've already called the teacher, no one of you can escape!!"
With a click, the door suddenly opened inward.
Chen Xiao'er was not in a hurry to stop, she staggered a few steps inside and almost fell to the ground.
She quickly raised her head and chest and asked loudly, "What are you doing so late at night? I..."
What are you doing?
Chen Xiao'er was stunned. She thought she would see a thin girl being pinned to the ground and beaten by three other girls, even using stools and tabletops.
But the truth was even more exaggerated than she had imagined. She saw a girl lying on the ground with her hands covering her stomach, her face pale, and another girl lying on her back not far away, foaming at the mouth.
"Classmate, do you have any ideas? You are classmate Chen, right? Hurry up and save him!"
Qian Xiaomei excitedly pulled Chen Xiao'er's arm. She knew the student introduction booklet by heart and of course knew that this person had the superpower to suppress abnormalities.
I don't know the exact strength, but what if it works? At least Curry's alienation phase was forcibly terminated when she came in!
As Chen Xiao'er approached, the gel on Curry's head began to peel off and vaporize at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"You, what are you doing..."
Xiao'er was really a little scared of this scene.
She walked over to the girl lying on her back and half squatted down, and found that her mouth was full of semi-solidified liquid, which felt like unfried egg white.
Could it be that they were cooking eggs in the dormitory late at night and this guy choked himself by eating too fast?
Another girl was clutching an apple knife, her hands clutching her stomach as she lay dying. Could it be that she was peeling fruit in bed when she saw a classmate in trouble and quickly jumped down, stabbing herself?
But the other two people are really suspicious!
"Call the infirmary first. I'm not very good at dealing with injuries."
Chen Xiao'er pulled a few sheets of paper from the table, lifted Curry up, patted her back, and made her vomit on the paper. She looked suspiciously at Qian Xiaomei and Liu Ping'an beside her.
The red-haired person was the one who had just opened the door. Not only was she tall, she was also holding a thick wooden stick. Now this person was sweating and panting, and it was obvious that he had just beaten something.
There are four people in the dormitory. Who can she beat up? She won't just bang on the table for fun, right?
As for the other sister, there was something wrong with her head. Not only were her eyes rolling around, but she also had a lot of strange little toys in her hands.
She looked at the broken tables and chairs, the tattered toy lizard, the ketchup, the hand-pulled fireworks, and the scattered confetti pieces...
Chen Xiao'er took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I'm going to take you to tell the teacher."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then showed a relieved expression at the same time.
Qian Xiaomei grabbed Xiao'er's hand and shook it vigorously: "Thank you, thank you. Thank you so much!"
