Two hours later, the door to the principal's office finally opened.
Killing the headless principal didn't actually take much effort; the main problem was getting more information about the main world out of him, which was what took up some time.
The three stood at the door of the principal's office, not in a hurry to leave, but looking towards the room in the shadows next to it.
“Come out! The headless principal has left. I aspire to become the principal of this eerie high school. Do you know what to do?” Zhulong asked, pointing towards the room. As the headless principal’s butler, he undoubtedly knew the most about the principal, so asking him was the right thing to do.
"Creak~~~" The rotten wooden door slowly opened, and the butler, wearing a cloak and hood, came out. His unseen gaze swept across the principal's office door, and then he stared at Zhulong quietly for a while.
"In the absence of a principal, if you want to become the principal, all you need to do is hold one staff meeting. As long as all the teachers recognize your identity, you are the new principal!"
"Hold a faculty and staff meeting? Okay, thank you!" Zhulong nodded and thanked him. "Then please inform all the teachers that the meeting will be held in the auditorium in an hour!"
Since schools have faculty and students, they will naturally have large classrooms or auditoriums for holding large-scale school events or open classes.
"Okay!" The butler nodded and left first to inform the teachers.
"Let's go! We should get ready too!" As the butler left, Zhulong looked at the two women and they left together.
This trip to the principal's office was incredibly fruitful. Not only did they find an opportunity to eliminate the headless principal, but they also gained more information about the main world, especially about the main world leader who came looking for trouble—he was practically easy prey.
“That commander has a strength boost in the main world, but it’s different here in this wooden house. Can we just kill him here?” Before the faculty and staff meeting began, Zhulong and the others sat together discussing.
“No, killing him here would be considered an accidental death of the leader, and a monster from the main world would take over his leadership position. It wouldn’t be our turn!” Zhulong shook his head. They had thought of this when they entered the principal’s office, but the information they received from the principal rendered the idea meaningless.
"Then what should we do?" Kunpeng scratched his head. If he couldn't kill him here, wouldn't it be the same outcome when he returned to the main world?
“Wouldn’t it be fine if we had people in the main realm when we killed him?” Xuan Du suddenly spoke up. “We’re supposed to stay here for ten days, but it didn’t say we could only stay for ten days, did it? As long as that monster leader comes back after ten days, our people will have already entered the main realm. Wouldn’t that give us a legitimate reason to take over the power and become the new leader?”
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. As expected of a cunning old fox, how could you even think of such a method?
"Thinking about it carefully, it seems to make sense?" Ye Zhen said blankly. "Moreover, we will definitely be the first to know that this commander is dead, so we will have a natural advantage in the competition for the commander's position!"
This method was immediately accepted by everyone, but who should stay in the eerie high school? Who should go to the main world to cause trouble? These questions needed to be carefully planned, since there were many high-level monsters in the main world, and someone who could keep things in check was needed.
"Kunpeng and I will stay here at the Strange High School. As for the main world, after you leave, go back to the Primordial Star and let Ye Jun and Ye Xi handle things there!" After a moment's thought, Zhulong made a decisive decision.
There weren't many people who came to the cabin this time, mainly because of their intellect. Most of them were only at the sixth level, while the commander was very powerful. It was obvious that they wouldn't be of much use staying here, so it would be better to go back and ask for help.
As for the main realm, Ye Jun and Ye Xi are probably enough. With their strength, even if they encounter a seventh-tier peak commander, they could probably turn the world upside down.
"Okay!" Ye Zhen nodded, and the matter was settled for the time being.
Then everyone walked into the auditorium together. The auditorium was already full of people. After all, the butler was subordinate to the principal and had a very high reputation among the faculty and staff. His notices were basically equivalent to the principal's orders, and no one dared to disobey.
But everyone was completely baffled by today's meeting. They were suddenly called to a meeting without knowing anything about it, which was truly perplexing.
Everyone was stunned, especially when Zhulong and his group arrived and walked onto the main stage without any politeness.
What's going on? A temporary teacher showed up for their staff meeting? Are you kidding me?
"Hello everyone, I am a teacher at the Mysterious High School, my name is Zhulong!" Zhulong said to the crowd below. Ye Zhen and others stood on either side of him, their powerful auras undisguised, which made all the teachers of the Mysterious High School tremble with fear.
"I have some very regrettable news to share: Headless Principal has passed away!"
These words caused a stir among all the faculty and staff in the auditorium. It was like a bombshell dropped into water, leaving everyone stunned. No one expected that the headless principal, who had spent countless years at the eerie high school, would leave just like that.
"Before he left, he entrusted this eerie high school to me, so I am honored to stand here today to tell you that I, Zhulong, will take over as the principal of the eerie high school and lead everyone to achieve even greater success!"
"Impossible! Even if the headless principal has left, he would never hand over the principal's position to a temporary teacher like you, let alone a living being!"
As soon as Zhulong finished speaking, a strange creature stood up and shouted angrily. Clearly, no one wanted to believe this, at least not to let a temporary teacher or a living being rule them.
"Pfft!" However, as soon as the strange teacher finished speaking, a bloody hole appeared between his eyebrows, and dark, foul-smelling blood slowly flowed out. He almost instantly lost consciousness.
"What a pity. It seems that the headless principal's consciousness still lingers in this strange high school. Any faculty or staff member who dares to defy his will will be under his watchful eye!" Zhulong smiled faintly. He acted extremely quickly, and the group of faculty and staff members, who were only at the fourth or fifth level, could not see how the strange creature died.
As for the rule against killing in front of others, it was temporarily invalidated when the headless principal died. Many rules in the eerie high school will only come into effect again when a new principal emerges.
