Chapter 18: Long Neck Teacher, how can I become like you...
[Derivative: Long-necked Teacher]
[Disaster sequence: C-56 call, C-226 space blockade, D-122 strong, F-129 consciousness scattered, E-112 deformity]
[Note: Monsters wandering around the campus buildings. They are often dressed in professional clothes, and their high heels make the floor creak. But when you think they are far away, their heads will suddenly appear and wander around you.]
[Ceiling, floor, wall... You can see them on any wall during class time. But as long as you don't break the rules and don't deliberately test their bottom line, they will leave like normal teachers.]
【Listen, the bell is ringing. 】
[They set off in high heels. ]
"hiss……"
Looking at the dense crowd of people in front of him, Wei Zhehan felt his scalp tingling. He subconsciously took a step back, but after seeing the figures of his roommates around him, he gritted his teeth and retracted his foot.
He couldn't just leave his roommate here.
Wei Zhehan warned himself anxiously: At least… at least I should wait for them to escape first before I run away…
“There are too many people.”
Zhou Haoyu pushed his glasses solemnly, but he found that his fingers were bent very stiffly. A thin layer of mist appeared on his lenses, and he saw through his peripheral vision that the frozen bloodstains on the wall of the room behind the monster teacher were melting.
It seems that this is why the classroom is cold...
The cold air now rushed towards everyone present through the huge hole.
Seeing this, Li Ming couldn't help but look out the window. It was still sunny and windy outside. The moment the gentle breeze and the cold air intersected, he suddenly felt an indescribable irony.
What they think is 'normal' is actually 'abnormal' in disguise.
"Oh?"
The long-necked teacher who first entered the classroom suddenly showed a confused look on his face. His head quickly returned to its normal position, and then he looked at the people present like a normal teacher.
Why did the number of people suddenly increase?
Li Ming keenly understood his expression: It seems that the monster teacher's IQ is relatively low... But whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, it is still hard to tell...
Cold sweat suddenly flowed from his forehead.
Li Ming instantly thought of the monster aunt they had encountered in the cafeteria, and thought of the introduction of the monster aunt in the "Eye of Truth". The long-necked teacher had the same disaster sequence of [F-129 Disorganized Consciousness] as the long-tongued cafeteria aunt.
If the other party's situation is similar to that of the cafeteria lady, then——
This will be a dead end.
The monster with the face of his former teacher slowly looked at everyone present. His dark eyes passed through their positions empty and emotionless.
“Tick-tock…tick-tock…”
The melting icicles are dripping water downwards.
The sound of dripping water echoed in the silent room. As the cold air eroded the temperature of the classroom, everyone present could feel a piercing chill creeping up from the corners of their trousers like a bone-chilling thorn.
The monster's gaze finally stopped on Li Ming's right side.
Li Ming suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next second his expression immediately became tense.
He secretly blamed himself angrily: How could he feel lucky that he was not the target? It was obvious that if anyone was targeted, it would be a terrible death.
But who was being targeted?
Li Ming's mind flashed through the words he had just read: breaking the rules...testing the bottom line...there are only two possibilities for those who are targeted...
There happen to be these two types of people among the people present now.
Li Ming's heart suddenly began to beat wildly. He was keenly aware that this would be a breakthrough, a breakthrough that would allow them to escape from their current situation, but before he could think about it further, the monster's actions shifted -
Several heads wandering in the air suddenly looked towards Li Ming's left side. They revealed fierce and resentful eyes and staggered to the left.
Then the gaze of the long-necked monster at the head also changed.
Left? Li Ming turned back suddenly.
Standing on his left was Jiang Huai, the one who walked forward from the hole in the wall, the one who was testing the monster's bottom line!
"How could you--" Sudden action!
The words of scolding were still on his lips when Li Ming suddenly realized something.
He looked at Jiang Huai who had hurriedly bandaged his arm wound, looked at Jiang Huai who pretended to be calm as he walked in front of everyone, looked at Jiang Huai's tall back, and thought angrily:
This guy—this guy—this guy wants to do it all by himself—
It would be a lie to say that I'm not glad, and it would also be a lie to say that I'm not angry.
Li Ming stared at him with gnashing teeth, but Jiang Huai's idea was actually easy to understand: he had to face the monsters he had attracted and lead them away by himself. He had never thought about "jointly fighting"!
But how can you make a decision without saying a word?
The more Li Ming thought about it, the angrier he became, but when he glanced at the people around him, his anger suddenly dissipated like a deflated ball.
He really had no reason to be angry... Jiang Huai was the only one in the dormitory who could be a fighting force...
Could they possibly push the trouble onto the senior students who were unfortunately affected?
The questioning from within completely interrupted Li Ming's thoughts.
Li Ming gritted his teeth and rebuked his own ridiculous idea: Why am I thinking about this now? What I should be thinking about most now is how to break the current situation!
However, the long-necked teacher's actions were faster than he had imagined.
The long-necked monster in the lead didn't even have time to move its body after aiming at the target. Its huge head, like a powerful cannonball, crashed straight into Jiang Huai's position.
More long-necked monsters used their hands and feet to crawl into the classroom from all directions through the holes in the wall like hunting spiders.
Soon, there were already four, five, six, or seven long-necked monsters in the small classroom...
The temperature in the classroom was getting colder and the space was getting narrower. They should have escaped from the classroom, but escaping from the classroom itself meant breaking the rules.
Jiang Huai dodged towards the door.
He calmly and slowly guided the long-necked teacher to follow him and leave the classroom. Perhaps he was too nervous at the moment, and he didn't even have time to see the window behind him.
More long-necked monsters were watching him retreat.
"Jiang Huai——"
Li Ming had just begun to shout anxiously, but the sudden coldness on his right arm made him turn back abruptly.
Liu Mei held his arm with one hand and looked at him solemnly.
She seemed to have thousands of words she wanted to say to Li Ming and the fellow students she had just met not long ago, but the time she could give them was so short that it was regrettable.
Maybe she just regretted why she didn't get straight to the point.
"Be careful of those students!" Liu Mei frowned and shouted in an imperative tone, "Remember——"
“You have to follow the rules but you can’t follow them completely!”
Her voice was so loud that even the monsters in the corridor outside the classroom could hear it. Seeing this, Li Ming inexplicably thought: Maybe she didn't just want to say it to them, she also wanted to say it to the monsters...
But why?
Before Li Ming could even begin to think, he saw the senior schoolmate he had just met turn her head quickly and yell to the frog behind her: "Wan Yi!"
This name is like a signal.
Xu Wanyi quickly made a pose like she was starting a marathon race. Liu Mei turned into a shadow again in front of everyone present and all the monsters.
A transparent, overlapping shadow.
They merged into one again, and then the monster frog started running, kicked the glass window that they had closed, and jumped into the sky outside the classroom.
Li Ming watched the frog happily giving a clumsy, provocative middle finger in mid-air.
The sound of breaking glass rang in everyone's ears, followed closely by the angry shouts of the long-necked teacher.
Now--
Those who break the rules and those who test the bottom line have become the same kind of people.
The densely packed long-necked monsters passed over them who were standing there, passed over the injured Jiang Huai, and ran straight out of the house without distraction. Their sharp nails dug deep into the wall, leaving tiny holes one after another.
When the last monster disappeared from the window, the messy classroom returned to peace.
Li Ming's heart was pounding.
He subconsciously moved closer to the window and stretched his head to look at the situation of the senior sister. The emerald green frogs were jumping between the outer walls of the teaching building, and she was surrounded by deformed long-necked monsters.
From time to time they roared, and then more monsters climbed out of the classroom windows.
The tiny frog was like an agile warrior, dodging, jumping, and even fighting back under the monster's attack. Her figure gradually became smaller and her voice gradually became inaudible.
When they were far enough away, the frog suddenly jumped up as if realizing something. Then her skin color changed and she gradually disappeared.
The two people just disappeared in the encirclement of many hunters.
"Amazing! Seniors are so awesome!"
Li Ming suddenly covered his mouth. He didn't want to attract back the monster that the seniors had led away with great difficulty because of his scream. But after he opened and closed his mouth several times, he realized that the sound was not made by him.
So Li Ming looked towards his side quietly.
Wei Zhehan was still hanging on the window sill. Half of his body was already out of the window, and he only needed someone to push him to fall off the building.
Li Ming pulled him back expressionlessly.
"Li Ming, did you see that? Damn, why can frogs be so handsome! So cool, it makes me want to be a frog too¥%%..." Wei Zhehan, who was dragged back to the classroom, shook Li Ming's shoulders excitedly.
A lot of words came out of his mouth, which were nothing more than some compliments for the scene he had just seen.
Li Ming was so dizzy from his shaking that he had to quickly stop his excitement: "Instead of saying this to me, why not wait until you meet the senior sisters and tell them in person..."
I just don't know how girls would react if they were told "so handsome" or "so cool".
Li Ming, who seldom interacted with girls, knocked his head in distress.
"Jacqueline, I think we need to have a good talk."
A familiar male voice suddenly sounded.
Li Ming and Wei Zhehan looked in the direction of the voice at the same time, only to see Zhou Haoyu speaking solemnly to Jiang Huai who was standing alone beside him.
Jiang Huai was silent for a moment, then asked, "With you?"
"And everyone in our dormitory."
Zhou Haoyu pretended to sigh and pushed his glasses up. "You shouldn't do that. Your behavior just now will only annoy the rest of us in the dormitory."
"..." Jiang Huai was silent.
"But this was indeed the best solution at the time." He pointed out the situation gloomily, lowering his head with a slightly painful expression, and said: "I have... I can't think of any other solution..."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dead silence.
In fact, there is really no better way... Li Ming turned his head away with some reluctance, thinking sadly: There is still too little they can do, just as the forum has said that the plot cannot be changed just because you want to.
There was a slight pulling sensation at the cuffs.
Someone was gently pulling at the corner of his clothes. Li Ming turned his head and saw Wei Zhehan quietly leaning close to his ear and whispering, "Li Ming, how can I become like you?"
His words were full of determination, as if he already knew that there was more to come than just a sunny road ahead.
But he still wants to be a super-powered person.
People with super powers, people with apocalypse, people with special abilities... no matter what you call them, they are referring to people with special abilities. Wei Zhehan just wants to be the same person as Li Ming.
Only by becoming a superpower, he would be qualified to fight alongside Jiang Huai, only by becoming a superpower, he could integrate into their circle, only by becoming a superpower——
He can protect others.
He wanted to protect his family, his friends, everything he had.
