"Everyone stay close together and try not to get separated!"
He glanced at the Songshan Academy, which had undergone a complete transformation. Every student who entered had changed into their own costume.
Or perhaps, this is what they were originally like.
Missing arms and legs are the most common costumes at this masquerade party.
Here, you can see all sorts of bizarre creatures.
In particular, some of the more powerful and eerie beings exude a strong aura of blood and an immense pressure.
Not only human contestants, but even ordinary and weak monsters would choose to retreat when they encountered powerful ones.
For example, there's a giant ball of flesh slowly moving along the road ahead.
The fleshy ball was covered with hands and feet.
The horizontal and vertical lines are irregularly distributed across the entire fleshy ball.
If you see something strange from afar, you'll hide in a corner or avoid it altogether.
Lin Xue and the others were the same.
He was hiding behind a corner, waiting for the big fleshy ball to leave.
"The masquerade party hasn't even officially started yet, and the campus is already this terrifying!"
"I wonder what kind of terrifying hell it will be tonight!"
In normal circumstances, all the strange appearances in the instance world are reasonably readable.
Once they revert to their original forms and reappear before people, let alone fight, their mere appearance will be enough to scare away many.
"While we still have some time, let's search the campus carefully and try to find a few convenient hiding places."
It's extremely dangerous to be wandering around outside all the time.
They need to find several hiding places and hide in these places at night.
How's the meeting room?
"And the auditorium!"
"There are more tables and chairs over there, so even if we're playing hide-and-seek with the weirdos, we'll have more places to hide!"
He carefully thought about the places he had visited at Songshan Academy.
"A multimedia room would also work; there's plenty of clutter there!"
Lei Ze also thought of a place.
"I think the equipment room is nice too, and there's a small grove of trees!"
Everyone racked their brains, recalling every place they had ever been, and recounted every possible hiding place.
Places like classrooms and dormitories are unthinkable, given their eerie atmosphere; there must be many students living in those places.
"Let's go take a look first, and figure out the routes to these locations before the party starts!"
After discussing for a while, the group went to check each of the places one by one.
Plan all the routes in and out so that even if everyone separates, they can still hide according to these patterns.
In this way, even if they accidentally get separated, they can quickly reunite.
"When you're hiding, remember not to go to the kitchen, and the woods are dangerous too!"
"I've already figured out the escape route. We'll just climb over the wall. If you get to the wall, you can try to see if you can still jump over it!"
"If the wall is forbidden and we can no longer climb over it, then we should find a way to meet at the school gate!"
If things really come to a battle royale, their goal will be to escape the school.
So in addition to finding a hiding place, they need to find several more escape routes.
Time passed slowly, and soon it was time for the masquerade party to begin.
[The Songshan Academy masquerade party has officially begun! Everyone get ready, and don't get caught!]
A line of large, blood-red characters appeared before everyone's eyes, then slowly disappeared.
Then a light pink mist enveloped the entire campus.
Why is there such thick fog at the masquerade party?
He looked around, but he could barely see the scenery a meter away.
"This might be an opportunity for us!"
Unexpectedly, the masquerade party was concealed by a fog, which greatly hindered their escape and also added obstacles for the supernatural beings.
"Host, these fogs have no effect on me!"
But 629's words shattered everyone's illusions.
Now everyone knows that the little mouse next to Lin Xue is a high-level monster.
If the fog here doesn't bother the little mouse, then it means the fog is aimed at human players, and the eerie creatures won't be affected at all.
"Is this instance designed to kill us?"
Razer clenched his fists angrily. Wasn't this treating them like clowns?
Their vision was obstructed, and they could see nothing, while the monsters could see their every move.
Suddenly I felt like I was being made a fool of.
Wouldn't the entire school's teachers and students surround them and watch them perform hide-and-seek?
"Hand in hand, follow me!"
Lin Xue and 629 guessed what these people were thinking, but now was not the time to stay here any longer. Fortunately, the place they were in when the party started was relatively secluded.
In the distance, many small eerie creatures have begun to emerge.
They dragged their crippled bodies around the campus, their eyes darting about, searching for any human athletes.
"From now on, let's try not to speak anymore. This fog might transmit our voices, allowing the monster to quickly locate us!"
Through 629, Lin Xue saw that none of those strange creatures made a sound.
There must be a reason why the strange behavior is silent.
As for the reason, Lin Xue guessed it was related to the fog.
Because while they were talking, a large number of ghostly figures had already come toward where they were hiding.
So they started using gestures to communicate.
After moving to several different locations, the strange creatures that had been following them gradually lost their trail and began searching aimlessly.
The contestants couldn't see it, and Lin Xue only noticed this phenomenon through the view shared by 629.
However, everyone now knows that they cannot speak in the fog.
At least the chances of survival have increased significantly.
The group wandered back and forth between several hiding places, and whenever they noticed a large number of strange creatures approaching, they would move to the next hiding place.
"Ring ring..."
As a series of urgent ringing sounds rang out, the entire pink mist began to churn.
All the strange creatures froze, standing motionless in place.
Lin Xue quickly stopped him from walking, made a gesture to everyone to stop, and then squatted down to the side.
Although no one knew the meaning behind the sudden ringing of the bell, they all followed Lin Xue's actions and squatted against the wall.
The pink mist rolled and thickened, as if Songshan Academy was quite unhappy about the loss of a few little mice.
Under normal circumstances, humans would not know this information and would be completely fooled by the strange beings in the academy.
They won't grab the human players all at once, but will tease them little by little until the human players are in a sorry state and are defeated one by one.
If it weren't for 629 being there, even Lin Xue wouldn't be able to see the outside world through the pink mist.
