Chapter 15 School for the Blind
Xu Zhiyan held a folding chair in his hand, stood in the middle of the dormitory with his back to the door, and gasped for breath.
I didn't expect beating someone up would be so exhausting!
At the beginning, there were still a few students who resisted, but probably because of the restrictions of the lights-out rules, their roommates did not make any big moves. He took the initiative and quickly knocked some of them unconscious or knocked some down.
Hearing the sound of the dormitory door being pushed open, Xu Zhiyan paused holding the bench leg, wondering how many times he could die.
[Name: Xu Zhiyan]
[Status: Weak,? ]
[Mental Threshold: 0-59]
[Current Spirit: 34]
The dormitory teacher and the little fireman consumed 15 points of his mental power, and his recent death reduced it by another 10 points. His remaining mental power was only enough for him to die three more times.
Xu Zhiyan closed his eyes and waited for death.
He didn't intend to resist in vain before finding a way to crack it.
The imagined pain never came.
Qu Ji at the door seemed to be stunned by the scene before him and did not move for a long time.
When Xu Zhiyan opened his eyes again, he found that his face felt numb?
He belatedly raised his hand and touched his cheek, as if a thick mask was tightly attached to his skin.
I bent my fingertips and scratched it gently. Not only did it not hurt, but it also tore a cut and tore off a piece of skin.
Looking at the skin mixed with blood and flesh on his palm, he suddenly understood why he was not killed by Qu Ji this time.
This is indeed the past of Qu Ji.
But these things did not happen, everything existed in his consciousness.
This would explain why everyone has the same face!
Because Qu Ji was timid and cowardly, the ugly scar on his face made him a laughing stock among his classmates and a target of bullying.
The source of everything comes from this scar, so in the conscious world, no matter whether it is a student or a teacher, they all have a face without a hideous scar that Qu Ji has always dreamed of.
Although I don't understand how everything here is cyclical and how long the cycle is, but looking at Qu Ji's skillful hacking and killing skills, people in this consciousness world will probably be killed every once in a while.
But this time he acted too quickly, and someone else took the lead in attacking the target of revenge instead of Qu Ji, causing Qu Ji to encounter a situation that had never happened before.
When everything became clear, Xu Zhiyan took a deep breath and planned to turn around and explain to Qu Ji that he was not one of those people who had bullied him, but his new roommate in the double room.
But as soon as he let go of the folding chair, he saw a game pop-up window pop up in front of him.
[Ding! Congratulations to the player for discovering a game BUG! This BUG causes NPC cognition to be blurred. ]
[In order to protect your gaming experience, we will fix this BUG after you finish your next sentence. ]
[Tip: Players are not allowed to reveal their identities directly or mention any names. ]
"?"
Xu Zhiyan was stunned and almost couldn't breathe.
He opened his mouth and wanted to curse, "What a stupid game!" But when he realized that he might only have one sentence left, he gritted his teeth and swallowed the curse word back into his stomach.
According to this, the way to successfully pass this branch quest should still be mainly through fighting or escaping.
Either subdue Qu Ji and stop him from killing his roommates, or escape from the pursuit with the mentally retarded roommates.
But now he accidentally found a third solution, and beat up these roommates in advance, resulting in Qu Ji, who originally wanted to kill people, having nothing to do.
Assuming the BUG is fixed, other players with high combat power might be able to win, but there is absolutely no way he can win.
The next sentence became his final straw!
The audience in the live broadcast room were also amazed.
[What can I say? I'm so anxious! ]
[As expected of a game system, isn’t it obvious that they don’t want Xiao Baiwan to pass the level! ]
[I used to think that Xiao Baiwan could be on the potential list, but now I think if he continues to grow, he should be able to be on the top of the standings! ]
[I second your opinion. After all, those who create game bugs and make the game more difficult for a single player are basically at the top of the leaderboard.]
[Can you please stop talking about that nonsense? I want to know what to say now! ]
[I can’t reveal my name and identity, let alone my legs! Of course, I took advantage of the snail’s lack of reaction to grab the knife and kill it! ]
[Look! Little Millionaire turned his head...]
Xu Zhiyan waited until he had caught his breath before turning around.
Qu Ji was still standing at the door, just like when he delivered breakfast to everyone in the morning.
He was holding a dagger in his hand, looking dazed. It was unclear whether it was a sign of a mental breakdown or if he was thinking about how to start.
It takes great courage to face a monster that is stronger than you and may hurt you at any time.
Xu Zhiyan touched his cheek. The flesh mask that had just been torn off had returned to its original state under the influence of the game system.
He paused for a step and walked towards Qu Ji.
Soon, there was only the threshold of a dormitory between the two of them. Qu Ji did not move. Now was the best time to snatch the dagger, and once missed, there would be no second chance.
However, Xu Zhiyan did not attack the dagger.
He reached into his pocket.
It contained some loose coins and small banknotes, which were the little pocket money he had left as a student.
The crumpled banknotes were smoothed out, totaling twenty-one dollars and fifty cents.
Xu Zhiyan pursed his dry lips silently and stuffed the money into Qu Ji's pocket.
He didn't dare to look up at Qu Ji, for fear that he would stab him.
But after taking a breath for a moment, the other party did not move.
After that, Xu Zhiyan did not speak again. While thinking about what to say next, he turned back while counting on his fingers and stared at his roommate who was wailing on the ground again.
Searching for supplies is always a great pleasure.
He first searched the pockets of his roommates and slapped anyone who tried to struggle.
One dollar, five dollars, ten dollars, twenty dollars...
Plus some loose coins.
In a short while, he had collected more than a hundred dollars.
But Xu Zhiyan was still not satisfied.
After making sure that Qu Ji would not suddenly attack and hurt anyone, he stuffed the hundred yuan back into Qu Ji's pocket and ran back to search the drawers and cabinets.
Different from the rough way he went through the pockets of NPCs, Xu Zhiyan was very enthusiastic when facing the lifeless furniture. He searched every drawer clean, not only the change and banknotes, but also the biscuits, snacks, cigarettes and drinks.
The banknotes were held in hands and the supplies were placed on the bed.
Although there is a high probability that these things cannot be taken away, but what if?
Finally, he had finished searching all the cabinets.
Holding the more than one hundred yuan he had collected, Xu Zhiyan walked to the door.
This time, he did not put the money directly into Qu Ji's pocket, but handed it to him and waited for Qu Ji to take it himself.
After seeing Qu Ji reluctantly reaching out his hand to take the money, he smiled and spoke.
"I got all your breakfast money back for you."
After blurting out this sentence, the numb feeling on my face came back, even worse than before.
Xu Zhiyan felt as if the skin on his face was falling off.
Qu Ji raised his head and looked at the person in front of him.
The face that frightened him shattered bit by bit, revealing another delicate face. Although his consciousness was still unclear and he couldn't identify who the other person was, he still shook his head and said in a crying voice:
"You are not them."
“They wouldn’t do that to me.”
“I don’t think I killed anyone…”
Xu Zhiyan felt relieved, it seemed that he had guessed right.
Qu Ji was not some perverted murderer. He would hide behind the door when they first met, and would quietly make the bed after he left.
He does not enjoy killing people, and can even be described as a docile person.
So as long as he knows now that the people in front of him are not the ones who bully him, this false consciousness will naturally disappear.
As Qu Ji began to doubt his own memory world, this independent world began to collapse...
Before losing consciousness, Xu Zhiyan saw the completion prompt on the game panel.
[Side Quest: Monster's Fall]
[Progress: 100%]
[Note: The monster that was constantly lost has woken up, stopped falling, and is no longer addicted to the world of consciousness. ]
[Reward: Box of Time (to be claimed)]
When I opened my eyes again, the sun was already high in the sky.
Xu Zhiyan felt pain all over his body. It was mainly because the floor of the archive room was too hard.
No, I have to go back and get some sleep.
Sleeping last night was as good as not getting any sleep. As an ordinary person, he concentrated for 24 hours and felt like he was going to die!
Hearing the sounds of conversation and unlocking coming from the door, he didn't bother to collect the reward. He rolled over and hid behind the cabinet with his back hunched.
After a while, the students who were called to organize the files arrived as scheduled.
Xu Zhiyan took advantage of the fact that he was also wearing a school uniform and successfully blended in, then slipped out through the upstairs toilet.
After returning to the dormitory, Qu Ji did not go to class but sat on the bed instead.
Seeing the hunched young man with a scar on his face, Xu Zhiyan knew that he had escaped from his monster form, and he couldn't help feeling relieved.
Qu Ji raised his head, stared into his new roommate's eyes and slowly said, "Let's continue our dormitory games tonight."
“The person on my back is my inferiority complex and my shackles.”
"But it's all gone now, thank you."
Xu Zhiyan nodded. He looked at Qu Ji’s body which was gradually becoming transparent, knowing that he would most likely disappear after the side quest was completed.
But the timid young man was able to speak without stuttering and express his gratitude openly, and he inexplicably felt a little comforted.
The only regret is that the things in the dormitory in the past world cannot be obtained...
There are so many cookies and snacks, what a pity!
When a person relaxes, his spirit also becomes tired. Xu Zhiyan leaned against the head of the bed, waiting for the last question.
At this point, he knew Qu Ji would not ask any more outrageous questions.
"You seemed very sad just now, what are you regretting?"
“…”
Shit! Why would you ask this?
How to answer? Should I honestly say that he feels that he is at a loss because he cannot take out the things from the past world? That is not appropriate!
But the rules of the game are that you have to tell the truth.
Xu Zhiyan had no choice but to explain: "...I just...kind of want to take away all the supplies I looted from your roommate."
To the end.
He buried his whole body in the pillow, digging the three-bedroom and one-living-room apartment with his toes.
Damn, this is the first time I feel so embarrassed since entering the game.
In the live broadcast room, everyone burst into laughter when they heard the answer.
[As expected of a small millionaire, robbery runs in his veins. 】
【Hahahahaha this truth buff! 】
[I laughed so hard, hahahahahahahahaha, Xiao Baiwan never dreamed that this truth would backfire]
[hhh who would have thought that Tianluo would run into trouble with just a casual question! ]
[Oh no! The bandit bloodline is exposed! Hahahaha]
Fortunately, the game system popped up in time and saved Xu Zhiyan from embarrassment.
He lay on the bed with his eyes narrowed, an expression of surprise.
[Task 3: Participate in dormitory games]
[Progress: 100%]
[Reward: A safe place to rest temporarily. ]
[Note: After completing the dormitory game, the dormitory will be used as an independent space for players. ]
【Congratulations to the player who is the first to complete the dormitory game. 】
