Chapter 214
Yu Tu used leaves to poke the inside of the hollow stone in annoyance, feeling that he was in a dilemma. Although he didn't know how many monsters there were, if he found out he had gone to the wrong place, it would be difficult to get out - there couldn't be so many monsters, and every one of them couldn't be as easy to fool as the one in front of him.
Yu Tu pondered in the cold wind with the stone shell on his head, and finally decided to take a gamble.
If before you could see the spectacle of a stone with roots walking, now all you can see is a stone crawling on the ground cautiously.
Ma Jia's mind was even more tense at this time, and his eyes refused to leave the surveillance of Qiankunmou for a moment, so much so that he did not notice that many teachers in the cave quietly unfolded the same screen, publicly exposing the whole process of his disguise.
The "stone" that could move and change direction by itself moved into the dilapidated buildings in the snow-capped mountains at an extremely slow speed. Through the small hole in the stone, Yu Tu Miao fell into a long silence.
He was too far away before, and the building seemed to be covered by a layer of shadow, making it difficult to see clearly. Now that he has reached the gate and the fog has dissipated, he realized that this group of dilapidated buildings is an abandoned school.
Thinking of the monster that just lost its SAN, Yu Tu's leaves trembled.
As we all know, schools are usually built on cemeteries or mass graves, using human anger to suppress the eerie ghostly aura of the school. Whether it is a folk fantasy or a timeless entertainment movie, schools are always high-risk areas where accidents are prone to occur.
After studying in the inner world for a year, Yu Tu discovered that this was not a stereotype—because it was true!
The examples the teacher gave during class were all real cases that had happened in the outside world. Many of the strange events occurred in schools, with high schools having the highest frequency, followed by kindergartens.
The high school ranks first in the outbreak of strange events in schools. I believe the senior high school students have made great contributions. Who can be calm, optimistic, positive and brave, full of love for the world, and be as brilliant as a blooming sunflower every day when they are in the senior year of high school?
Yu Tu asked himself, he couldn't do it, and his classmates couldn't do it either.
Senior high school students graduate one after another, but their resentment is left in the school. Day after day, year after year, the resentment continues to accumulate. When it reaches a critical point, it will mutate and form strange events. When events occur, people who accidentally get involved will be injured at best, or even die.
Yu Tu huddled in the corner of the broken door with his stone shell on his head, undecided whether to go in or not. Some things do not weaken their lethality to people with the passage of time. For example, many people, even if they have already entered college or graduated for many years, will still dream of themselves sitting in the examination room of the college entrance examination one day, scratching their ears and cheeks, and then wake up in the middle of the night, sweating profusely.
Before Yu Tu even entered, he felt that his DNA was starting to get scared.
He was now very sure that the vague monsters he saw from afar were the students of the "school" in front of him. The high school campus was already terrifying enough, and the campus that had become a weird spot after the accumulated resentment exploded was even more terrifying.
Yu Tu Miao shuddered and carefully walked around the broken automatic door to enter the school. After he walked to the automatic door, a prompt appeared directly in his mind:
【Please escape from school in the right way. 】
The simplicity and clarity are breathtaking.
Yu Tu Miao carried his stone shell and moved to a corner where he would not be stepped on, then began to observe the campus.
Before he had stayed in this corner for a minute, Yu Tu heard the familiar dragging sound again. He looked out from the hole in the stone shell, and unexpectedly, what he saw was not a monster, but a pale and thin student covered in blood. The student held an ankle in each hand and was dragging a person behind him. A bloodstain spread from under the person being dragged, extending beyond Yu Tu's limited vision.
The whole scene had a thrilling movie-like feel.
The pale and thin student stepped out of the broken automatic door as if he had passed through invisible waves. If he looked like a murderer inside the door, he became a pervert outside the door, turning into a monster with five eyes, three arms and one leg.
The monster was dragging the dead body spread out in a spread-eagle position, and it was skipping towards the way Yu Tu came. Yu Tu instantly remembered the phrase "how embarrassing" in the physics sense.
Seeing the monster leave, Yu Tu stared at the long streak of blood, and finally understood what Qu Yutao meant by "selecting an environment familiar to the students" and "ensuring that the students will have an unforgettable experience."
The main body was still observing the campus environment, while the vest turned his gaze to Qu Yutao who was not far away from him. Qu Yutao was very sensitive to people's gazes. As soon as Yu Tu looked over, he raised his head and said, "Senior Buyehou, what can I do for you?"
Yu Tu asked directly: "Why is it designed like this?" Aren't you afraid of leaving a psychological shadow on the students?
He moved his eyes away from the surveillance screen where his main body was, and found that the monsters that stepped out of the ruined campus would randomly look for places to drop corpses, and then sense the breath of humans nearby to chase and kill them. Whether or not you can escape from the monsters depends entirely on your ability, and you will be "killed" if you are not careful.
"Are you afraid of scaring those kids?"
There were a large number of surveillance footage opened in front of Qu Yutao. In many of the footages, students were being chased in a dangerous situation. Some students had pale faces and stumbled as they ran away, with monsters falling behind them and chasing them relentlessly. They looked extremely pitiful.
"When we first designed the core of the snow mountain, we made three options: one is family, the second is hospital, and the third is school." Qu Yutao said, "When multiple people enter at the same time, the family model is not easy to implement and the effect will be weakened; the hospital is too dangerous and basically all the troops are wiped out; after much deliberation, only the school is the most suitable."
The family is the core, which is suitable for psychological tests; the hospital is the core, which is suitable for physiological tests. Although the school has both psychological and physiological tests, it is neither as suffocating as the former nor as dangerous as the latter.
"Most of the students here have spent their first 18 years studying in the outside world. They spend more time with their teachers and classmates at school than with their parents." The surveillance images reflected in Qu Yutao's eyes made him look a little cold, as if he had lost all human emotions at that moment. "You may not understand the current era very well, and you don't know the pressure students are under."
The frequency of strange events in schools is quite high. This is because the various negative emotions of students accumulate in a fixed place year after year, forming a "field". Students in the "field" are more susceptible to negative conditions. For example, they may jump off a building and commit suicide because they did not do well in an exam. Or they may quarrel with classmates over a trivial matter and be seriously injured and hospitalized...
In addition to these visible things, there are also invisible things. Over the years, these things have created a "nightmare" in every student's heart.
"When they are thrown into a familiar environment and faced with familiar situations, some people will forget that they have awakened their spiritual power and have the ability to subdue monsters - because they are always in the shadow of the past." Qu Yutao gathered the last surveillance images of the "dead" students together and lined them up. "Even if this feeling only lasts for a moment, it will be fatal on a real battlefield."
On the snow-capped mountains they have transformed, death is just a failing answer sheet, but after they graduate, death is a permanent farewell.
All the graduates of Millerkel University went to the Foreign Affairs Bureau, accounting for almost half of its manpower, but the other half came from Chang'an Academy, Kunlun and Guixu.
Kunlun receives news of student deaths every year. Some are from students who have just graduated, and some are from students who have graduated for several years. These teachers have been experiencing the eternal farewell brought by death.
Just like the habit of recording students' "black history" passed down from the Alien Bureau, they had it a long time ago.
Kunlun teachers will retain many memories. In these memories, some students are full of vigor and ambition, some students are full of sincerity with bold words, some students are shy, gentle and strong-willed, and some students are carefree, chivalrous and courageous... Later, some of these students with different personalities guarded the safety of the city, some traveled around the country to save people, some were seriously injured and retired with regret, and some were buried in the ground, leaving only a silent tombstone.
The memory of people who have awakened their spiritual powers is many times better than that of ordinary people, so it is difficult for their memory to be blurred. They remember every student, living or dead.
Strictly speaking, these four schools have never been real schools, and they do not cultivate innocent students. Each of their students will face countless actual combat exercises during their school years, because they will go to the real battlefield after graduation.
"They have to break through the 'nightmare' in their hearts until they are no longer afraid." Qu Yutao smiled lightly, "If we are cruel to them now, we will have fewer photos on the wall in the future."
"We are selecting only the environments they all fear," he said. "Next year we will conduct individual simulation training for each person."
"Senior Buyehou." Qu Yutao looked at him, "This is one of the reasons why everyone is looking forward to your arrival."
Yu Tu looked at him. Qu Yutao's eyes were very light in color, like transparent amber. When he smiled gently, there was nothing strange about it. But once the smile disappeared, it gave the illusion that he was not human.
At this moment, Yu Tu suddenly felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders, because everyone thought he was powerful, a hidden boss, and no one thought that the boss might be a fake.
"I'm not forcing you." Qu Yutao said, "I understand better than anyone that 'hope cannot be pinned on anyone'. In the end, everyone can only rely on themselves."
He just hopes to increase the chances of survival for these students who will go to the battlefield in the future as much as possible, rather than finding out one day that the jade plaques engraved with the students' names have turned into dust.
Qu Yutao said what he wanted to say the most. It was obvious that Buyehou came for the tea tree seedling, but he wanted to seize this opportunity. He admitted that he was mean and selfish, and good at calculating, but he had a clear conscience.
When Qu Yutao lowered his eyelashes, he heard the sigh of Buyehou and made a promise gently and calmly:
"I'll do the best I can."
