Pushing open the wooden door, they entered the cabin once again, but this time the situation was completely different. What greeted their eyes was no longer a simple room, but rather a rusty and dilapidated door.
A faint light shone from the dark red sky. The plaque beside the door was crooked and covered in rust, as if it would fall at any moment. On it, several large characters, as if written in blood, were faintly visible: "Strange High School!"
"It seems we'll have a chance to be teachers this time!" Xuan Du said with a faint smile, looking at the characters on the plaque. The characters were standard Chinese script, clearly adapted to their habits.
“Dean, mentor, demon master… I feel like we’re quite suited to this school!” Ye Zhen said with a soft laugh.
Just then, the mottled iron gate slowly opened, and the jarring creaking sound immediately attracted everyone's attention. The desolate campus was deserted, seemingly abandoned for a long time.
"Could this be an empty school? Can we just go in, take a look around, and then come out?" Kunpeng said, hiding behind Xuandu and peeking into the academy.
"If you're not afraid, you can stay at the entrance and not go in. You might be able to get out directly!" Ye Zhen said, glancing at him, and followed the others into the school.
"You heartless rabbit, trying to trick me again!" Kunpeng cursed and quickly followed. He could already feel the terrifying pressure descending upon him. Although it was not enough to threaten him yet, it was clearly a sign that the rules would not allow them to slack off outside of school.
"Hey! Who are you? What are you doing here?" As soon as the group entered the school, a shout rang in their ears. They turned around and saw a five-meter-tall abomination walking towards them, carrying a hook and chain, its fat face filled with obvious anger.
"us……"
"Hello! We heard you're hiring teachers here, and we've come to apply!"
Kunpeng wanted to speak, but Xuandu beat him to it. Otherwise, if he had spoken, everyone would have been wiped out by the rules.
"Applying to be a teacher? Don't move around here, or I'll eat you up!" Hearing Xuan Du's words, Zang E stopped, his gaze sweeping over the group with suspicion before he spoke.
After saying that, he turned and left. Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Only then did they realize that there was a huge police station right next to them, and that the abomination had obviously gone to contact the teachers at the school.
"Hey! Did you know they were recruiting teachers?" Kunpeng asked curiously, leaning close to Xuandu's ear. They hadn't been given any warning when they came in, so who knew what the school's rules were?
“There are generally two kinds of people in a school: students and teachers. So, do you come to school to be a student or a teacher?” Xuandu countered. Kunpeng was taken aback. It seemed to make sense!
"Then I could be a security guard? A principal? A parent?"
"At school, whether you're a security guard, the principal, or a caregiver, you can all be called a teacher. It's a fairly reliable way to address someone. As for parents, do you have children studying here?"
"Uh, you're right, the teacher is definitely right! You humans are really smart!"
"..."
Soon, Abomination emerged from the police station, his anger lessened considerably, but his gaze towards the crowd remained hostile, as if he were looking at a pile of delicious food.
Fortunately, he still didn't seem to dare to directly attack the crowd, whether out of fear of their strength or due to restrictions imposed by the rules.
“You all wait here, someone will come out to see you soon!” Abomination said to the crowd.
"Okay! Thank you!" Ye Zhen smiled sweetly at him, and his eyes immediately changed, almost instantly transforming from malice to goodwill.
"Um! This is our first time applying for a teaching position. Could you introduce us to the job?" Ye Zhen continued to ask, and the spherical figure of the abhorrent creature immediately sat down. "Of course!"
Everyone stared at Ye Zhen in astonishment. They hadn't expected that she could subdue this abomination so easily. Her words didn't sound particularly special, but coming from the mouth of the E's Beast, they were full of seduction and manipulation, making people unable to help but choose to believe. This was the unique talent of the E's Beast.
Taking advantage of the teacher's brief absence, under Ye Zhen's constant guidance, Hatred revealed everything he knew.
For example, the school's recruitment this time is indeed to recruit teachers for the students, but the subjects for recruitment are different. There are cultural subjects such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there are cultivation subjects such as martial arts and magic cultivation. The subjects for recruitment are different, but only one person is recruited for each subject.
Furthermore, there are some special subjects that are not open to students. If you accidentally choose one of these subjects, you are breaking the rules and risk being eliminated. Of course, if you can justify your decision or replace the original teacher, that is within the scope of the rules.
After hearing his words, everyone looked at each other, and they already had a general plan in mind. At least they could not repeat each other in terms of subject selection, so that there would be no risk of collision.
Ye Zhen even asked what would happen if they clashed. The result was a competition where the winner would become the teacher and the loser would be eliminated.
The cruel rules terrified everyone. The complexity and danger of the rules in the horror high school were far greater than in the ordinary wooden house. If you were not careful, you could fall into a pit and be wiped out by the rules.
Unfortunately, this abomination was just a gatekeeper, and such creatures are not very intelligent, so the information it could know was limited. Apart from the school's recruitment, it knew very little else, not to mention the situation of the other cabins outside the cabin.
Soon, the strange creature responsible for receiving them arrived from the school. It was a humanoid creature, but it was wrapped in a huge cloak, and its face was hidden under a decaying hood, making it impossible to see. However, the cold and dark aura emanating from its body made people feel very uncomfortable.
"Teachers who have come to apply? Tell us what you are good at and which teaching positions you are applying for." A hoarse voice came from under the hood, which sounded very unpleasant to everyone, but no one spoke up to refute it.
The group exchanged glances and, as agreed beforehand, each chose a course to apply for a teaching position.
Seeing that none of the applicants' subjects conflicted, the other party seemed quite surprised and turned away after a brief silence.
"Come with me, I'll take you to the interview!"
