Outside.
The appearance of the fog caused a sensation around the world.
This was the first A-level anomaly to appear in a downtown area, and also the first anomaly to be revoked after being rated.
Unable to control the spread of the fog, they chose to join the Sun Never Sets directly, and even made a fortune by collecting entry ticket fees.
In just four days, nearly twenty people with special abilities awakened from it and gained C-level abilities in one leap, and nearly a hundred ordinary people fell into a coma.
Those who came out were very vague about the situation inside, and did not explain anything except that this was a "evolution game" that could be life-threatening.
However... many organizations have discovered that the temperaments of those who have acquired superpowers have undergone a strange transformation. They have become cold-blooded and will take the initiative to distance themselves from those without superpowers.
What is even more strange is that they will involuntarily investigate the information of the Central Superpower Academy.
Dawn Headquarters.
"The fog is full of weird things. People in the country are still restricted. Don't go out during this period."
Information Minister Feng Zhengqing pushed his glasses and said, "From the perspective of its position and cost, the fog itself is still a weird entity. In fact, its wisdom may be higher than we imagined."
"Does it want to accelerate the evolution of superpowers and cause civil unrest in this way?"
Bai Yongrong frowned, "The biggest problem now is that the fog appeared in the Sun Never Sets Zone, and we don't have much power to interfere."
"Unite other countries to put pressure on it?"
"That will also take some time - ambitious people will not miss this opportunity."
Feng Zhengqing sneered, "There are many people in this world who don't care about their lives."
"We don't have the authority, but there is an organization that does." Sitting in the first seat, the old minister slowly spread out his hands.
A letter with strict and cold wording appeared in front of him at some point. The pattern on the document was white baby's breath.
After everyone had read it, the letter returned to the old minister's hands.
Everyone's expressions changed from being wary of insufficient information to being strange, mixed with shock and confusion.
"Rather than saying that the strange fog is targeting human evolution, it's better to say... it is indeed targeting the academy."
Bai Yongrong's mouth twitched slightly: "You are brave."
The old minister said helplessly: "The academy means that this time we should not interfere, restrain our own people, and they will send someone to solve it."
"Then are we just going to watch?" Xu Jingshan, the head of the combat department, scratched his head.
"Not really." The old minister said, "We are in charge of diplomacy, so it's best to coordinate the people on the British side as well."
"Otherwise, the academy may not be able to distinguish so clearly when it takes action..."
The reason why the academy deals with Shuguang is to let them be the spokespersons at the political level and help deal with some things that the academy is too lazy to deal with but cannot avoid.
Feng Zhengqing sighed, "This is not easy to handle."
"Look at the bright side, this is also an opportunity that only we have, and negotiation is actually more beneficial to us." The old minister winked playfully.
"Just wait and see, they should be about to take action."
He shook the letter, and a line of words with a little private meaning was very eye-catching.
The first target of the Mist Strange was Delian, who was still injured. However, most people did not know that Delian's direct teacher was the dreaded Dean of Studies.
I did not expect that Dean Sainz looked cold and heartless, but in fact he still cared for Zeluan.
He even wrote in anger that Strange delayed Delian's confinement...
The old minister narrowed his eyes, but this also showed that the other party was not worried at all about whether Delian could survive in the Strange Realm.
Is this confidence?
In the Mist Realm.
After a short and almost non-existent rest, everyone quickly left the empty place.
"The first time was an underwater trap, and the second time was a bomb on the roller coaster. Every time the Butcher uses his ability, a bell will ring to remind us."
Inertial Tou analyzed, looking at the bell hanging in the sky: "Hmm... From this point of view, it seems that he only has one chance left. We need to find a way to escape before the countdown ends?" "
In addition to supernatural means, you have also seen that the Butcher's movement speed and weapons are difficult for us to compete with." The police said.
"So even if he doesn't have supernatural powers, he still has countless chances to fail. If we fail once, we will die."
"How did you escape last time?" The nurse asked the police while bandaging the graduate student.
Because the graduate student crushed Inertial Tou when the roller coaster exploded, the iron bars of the roller coaster scraped his entire back and a large piece of skin fell off.
However, the nurse did not use any skills and simply bandaged it several times.
The policeman recalled: "The countdown was about to end, I jumped off an abandoned ship, and saw a door glowing on the seaside..."
"And it ended when you went in?"
"Yes." The policeman said heavily, "But everyone who escaped with me died. I was just lucky. Damn it... How can this game end!"
"Kill the butcher? He is a weirdo, right?" The graduate student blinked, "I'll make a bomb, and everyone will try to trap him."
"It's not that easy." The policeman said unhappily, "There must be a lot of weirdos here, and a weird leader! The one I met last time I came in was completely different from this butcher!"
Everyone fell into despair. Not to mention whether they could solve the butcher, just solving this one, this weirdo still has other minions!
The nurse skillfully tied a knot on the bandage, and then looked at the white bandage that had grown out, and looked at the pink-haired young man next to her.
"Delian, these are for wrapping your feet." She handed the bandage over, "It's too easy to get hurt running barefoot."
The latter responded and reached out to take it. When the two handed it over, the nurse touched Delian's fingers, and suddenly shivered and grabbed it directly.
"Hey! What do you want to do at this time!" The nurse stared at him with wide eyes.
"No... Delian, your hands are so cold." The nurse frowned, "The temperature is abnormal, are you a little hypothermic?"
When she said this, everyone subconsciously looked at the young man, and then they realized what he had just experienced.
First, he soaked in the water tank for most of the day, and then he played chase games barefoot after coming out, and also enjoyed the noisy wind of the roller coaster wetly...
This is something that even a body made of iron can't bear!
"Then why don't you take off your clothes quickly!" The graduate student stood up and hissed because of the wound on his back, "Who has extra pants to wear?"
Hypothermia can be fatal if it becomes serious. You must change your wet clothes immediately and use blankets and other items to keep warm and restore your body temperature.
But at this moment, no one has prepared extra clothes, so they can only worry.
The only person who is not in a hurry is the person involved.
Delian's face was indeed pale and bloodless, but his expression was very calm, with a look of indifference. His golden green eyes were slightly closed, as if he was a little sleepy.
"It's okay, my brain tells me that this is a normal phenomenon." Delian frowned and guessed, "Maybe magicians have to practice this?"
Everyone: "......?"
"I've said it before, normal magicians don't learn this!" Guantou said in a panic, "You are a magician!"
"Okay, then I will be a magician."
The pink-haired young man smiled slightly, his tone was gentle, and he looked like "I will do as you say."
Guantou went crazy: "Ahhhhh!"
Several people watched him take the bandage and casually wrap it around his feet twice. His jade-like toes rubbed twice uncomfortably, as if protesting against the sudden restraint.
The nurse asked curiously, "You really can't remember anything about the past?"
"I can't remember." Delian crooked his eyes, "But it doesn't affect me much."
He said firmly, "I came here, it doesn't seem to be accidental, I want to find something."
"What else can you find, something weird?"
The graduate student didn't understand, he just said sadly, "If I can't get out this time... I haven't finished revising my thesis yet!"
The policeman didn't say a word, just took off his coat with a dark face and put it on Delian.
"Let's go, I'm a little panicked." The nurse covered his chest and looked around vigilantly, "Could the butcher catch up with us again?"
The crowd trotted along the wall and gradually approached another purple building. It was only blocked by a fence and a very high wall behind it.
"Do you want to go in?" The habitual thief said hesitantly, "It's hard to escape in a closed room, but if you can climb out of the second-floor window, there might be a 'door' behind." "
Go in." The police frowned and said, "We have already run to the diagonal line. If there is still no door here... then there is only one direction."
Then we will have to cross the river from here. If the butcher comes, there may be casualties.
The police did not say this sentence. After all, they had no way to escape. Saying it would only increase panic.
The habitual thief took out the props from his pocket, fiddled with the lock on the fence, and said confidently: "That must be impossible. I'm very lucky!"
"Squeak--" Soon, the door opened.
Time went back to before the lotus game began.
Still in the misty space, the cabin in the woods that is very familiar to the butcher.
The survivors must participate in the game once every two days and cannot enter in advance. For the butchers, they can participate at any time.
If they have not figured out the rules yet and are worried about letting the survivors escape, it is estimated that many butchers will directly take over seamlessly.
It is hard not to think of the Stanford Prison Experiment.
Many college students played the role of "prisoners" and "prison guards" under the conditions of simulated prisons. Under any known conditions, the "prison guards" still abused the "prisoners".
The conclusion is simple. If people are given power beyond their own, these people will abuse their power; and those who are deprived of power will either succumb or go crazy.
Many people know this well.
However, the butchers who benefited from it would only smile and say, "Isn't this good?"
At this moment, many butchers who did not participate in the escape game were sitting in the cabin in the forest, watching the ongoing game.
This was a benefit given to them by the managers, and it was also a bait to further encourage them to learn from each other how to kill people and abandon their bottom line.
Here, there were no moral constraints, and anyone could discuss the next hunting method with people around them without scruples.
"This function is really good, right, Ford?"
Beagle Oston, who looked like a dog, sat next to Ford and swirled the drink in his hand.
In front of them were neatly arranged small TVs, which played faces of fear and struggle, and among them there were inevitably superpowers who came in to seek excitement.
Those superpowers never thought that they would become the hunted.
Ford scanned the rows of TVs with his eyes fixed on them and said indifferently, "Get lost!"
"Don't be so heartless. We are now in the same boat." Austin said with a strange smile, "Still want to find the shadow of your dream lover?"
"Speaking of which, his entry is inseparable from you. Could it be that you lured him?"
Ford tightened his hands under the table. The academy members entered the "game" after being notified by the administrator. He couldn't even deceive himself.
He was waiting here now, firstly to find the figure of Lian, and secondly to see if there was any way to let him insert himself into the game.
As long as he can have a match with Delian, he can definitely let Delian kill him...
"I advise you to give up as soon as possible." Austin saw through his thoughts and said, "You caught my man after all. I never knew you were such a coward!"
The muscles on his face twitched, and he was extremely sarcastic: "This weirdness is obviously aimed at the academy - yes, you think the academy can be cracked from the outside, but what about the people who come in?"
"Haha, losing his memory, suppressing his superpowers, do you think he can still survive? Or - can he wait until he meets you?"
Ford raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were biting.
Austin was unmoved, he just moved closer to Ford and whispered: "So many people... are here to witness this 'accident'."
"Heh, the members of the academy are not invincible, right?"
The blond man clenched his fists so tightly that even his bones made a creaking sound.
How much he wanted to punch the idiot in front of him in the face, but the "rules" wouldn't allow it.
In fact, everyone knew that this weird field would be solved by the academy sooner or later.
But they also knew that they were "humans."
Once the academy takes action against "humans", the shaky balance that is currently maintained will be broken in an instant!
Austin said sarcastically, "You don't have to be afraid of being held accountable. They are so powerful, they shouldn't bother with little people like us."
"Idiot." Ford suddenly laughed, "I was almost led astray by you."
Austin: "?"
The blond man took the cup from Austin's hand, shook it, and poured it directly on the carpet.
His blue eyes lit up, and he said to himself, "Yes, he is so strong, this little difficulty can't stop him at all."
Why did he think that Delian would be in trouble? Is it because of concern that one is confused?
A person's strength is not affected by any external force.
Ford thought that the man who could make him fall in love at first sight for no reason must be strong enough to beat ten of him.
Even he could kill the butcher, so Delian just had no memory, and he passed the test in a few minutes!
The wine he drank was inexplicably poured away. Austin looked at the man in front of him who suddenly became happy, and was completely speechless: "No, Ford, you are sick!"
"Ding--" The bell in the room suddenly rang, and a small TV turned blood red.
The blood-red picture flickered, revealing the internal picture of an amusement park circus.
The four people tied to the chairs were awakened, and they analyzed the situation in a panic.
[Escape Game 03 Slaughterhouse, triggering the hidden mechanism!]
With a "bang", the pink-haired young man entangled in chains was thrown into the vat, and was about to stage an exquisite escape show.
The butchers who were gathered together and communicating with each other were instantly alerted, and their attention was drawn to the past.
Ford trembled his fingers, and Austin's wine glass suddenly fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Pop!"
The wine glass was gone, and Austin was so angry that he was speechless. He simply sat next to Ford and said viciously: "Then let you watch!"
See how your dream lover desperately struggled to die at the hands of the butcher!
Austin didn't notice that Ford's expression was calm at the moment, as if he had been enlightened.
Not only was it calm, but there was even a hint of "That's it?" "It's settled now" in his expression.
The other butchers also discussed in twos and threes:
"This academy member seems to have appeared on the Drentz, fighting a B-class monster alone."
"So what? Butcher No. 03 is quite smart and carefully controlled the mechanism remotely."
"But speaking of it, if they were drowned at the beginning, it would be too boring..."
Things seemed to be the same as they thought. The other survivors panicked and struggled to break free from the chains, but they could not catch up with the speed of the water tank filling up. They could only watch the pink-haired young man sink into the water little by little.
Then-
nothing happened.
Deren was not drowned, and the chains on his body did not work at all. He rolled out.
The young man really had no memory, he was innocent and well-behaved, even so well-behaved that he really stayed in the water because of a word from a habitual thief.
The butchers, who were either sighing or sighing, fell into a dead silence.
If one could express their inner emotions at this moment, they would definitely be full of question marks.
"What are you doing! Didn't you say that you don't have superpowers anymore? This is like a joke!"
"He seems to be a fantasy species, right?"
"Stupid, just hit him! It would be a problem if the academy members could be drowned!"
"That's not what you said before."
Austin wiped the corner of his mouth that had just risen, and inexplicably had a bad premonition.
"You are right." Ford was getting happier. "He is so strong, it doesn't matter whether he has memory or not."
"It has just begun." Austin gritted his teeth, his face gloomy. "When the Butcher shows up, I hope you can still smile."
Ford had already turned his head to look at the big screen.
Although he knew the situation was dangerous, the blond man couldn't suppress the urge to curl his lips.
The villain in his heart screamed crazily, such a good and obedient Deren! He still thinks he is a magician!
Underwater escape is so great! A magician with such a good figure!
Why is he not on the scene!
Soon, the Butcher showed up, but as a Butcher who uses "traps" as his main means of attack, Butcher No. 03's pursuit ability is actually very worrying.
In addition, the circus had a complicated terrain, so the five people stumbled and barely kept a certain distance.
Hearing the sound of the electric saw approaching, the pink-haired young man tilted his head slightly, as if he smelled something, and directly dragged the two people beside him into the bushes!
Across the half-person-high platform was an old roller coaster. If the butcher chose to take a detour, he would at least have a chance to catch one.
But Deren never took the usual route. Not only did he support himself with his hands, he jumped up easily. He
also dragged the others along, and before the butcher started, he stepped on the accelerator -
buzz! The electric saw hit the railing, leaving only exhaust gas on the ground.
Everyone who was completely in the butcher's perspective was almost having a myocardial infarction.
"The level of this Butcher No. 03 is too rubbish." Someone was extremely speechless, "He can't even catch this."
"Why do I feel that restricting superpowers and memories alone doesn't seem to have much effect on the academy members?"
"It should be an accident, right? This one can be beaten in the first place, and there shouldn't be any problem if the others are restricted."
"What if it's Kaxiu?" someone asked.
Kaxiu seems - it seems that the Butcher can't handle it either.
Everyone was silent, and at this moment, turning around to look at the administrator standing in the corner, they suddenly felt that this strange field didn't seem to be that strong...
"Don't jump to conclusions so early." Austin raised his voice, "Butcher No. 03 has already set a trap."
In the screen, the butcher, who was watching everyone get on the roller coaster, sneered.
He stretched out his hand, and the light of supernatural power floated, showing the bombs that had been placed on the roller coaster!
"... Trigger-type C4 bombs, related to the brakes?"
Most of the people present were desperate people, and they quickly identified the type of bombs and said in astonishment: "There is basically no chance of escape, right?"
"A roller coaster running at high speed, the brakes will explode, ha! I take back what Butcher No. 3 said."
"Even if it is a fantasy species, it should not be able to survive the explosion."
The butchers commented, with a look of indifference in their eyes, and a little bit of relief.
Even Ford couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up suddenly, rushed to the administrator, and grabbed his collar with difficulty to remain calm: "Let me in! Now! Let me in!"
The administrator wore a mask and hummed a little tune as usual, and said briskly: "You are a butcher, and I hope you can adapt to your identity as soon as possible."
"I don't care what kind of butcher you are!"
Ford was breathing rapidly, almost crazy. At this moment, his mind was full of thoughts that he had wings and could fly, and he wanted to save people!
Who can avoid bombs in such an environment!
Administrator: "For this, I can only say that it's a pity-"
Before he finished speaking, a violent explosion sounded from the small TV.
The blond man's hand holding the administrator's collar shook violently, and his mind went blank for a moment, and he sat directly on the ground.
Delian...
exploded...
How could it be so fast!
But he hadn't started to go crazy yet, because the butchers behind him went crazy faster than him.
"Ahhh! Fu*k! Fu*k! How come he's not dead yet! How can he know all this!"
"Administrator, there's something wrong with your rules! We agreed that there would be no memory!"
"Aren't they aliens? They even know the composition of the bomb! The people from that academy are cheating too much, right?!"
The pink-haired young man stood up in the wind, his wet clothes didn't make him look shaggy, but made him look particularly unrestrained.
Even at the moment of throwing the bomb, his golden-green eyes didn't waver at all.
Beautiful and crazy.
Then, he reached out his hand to the girl behind him and leaped forward as the flames bloomed.
So casually.
Easily solved the deadlock they had identified.
The butcher himself, who landed on the other end, was even a little dazed.
The blond man who tried to go crazy sat on the ground, looking at Austin who was jumping up and down in anger, and said "Huh?" in a daze.
"Not dead..."
Austin heard his mumbling and was furious: "Not dead, yes, not dead, but wait--"
Before he finished speaking, the blond man slapped his thigh and cried with joy: "I knew it was like you said, he is super strong! He won't die!"
I didn't mean to exaggerate him! Austin's face was distorted, and for a moment he didn't know whether it was pain or anger.
In the picture, after a brief discussion, the people who successfully got off the roller coaster entered the last building. As the habitual thief said, his luck has always been good-
this is the place closest to the "door".
As long as Butcher 03 can't hold back the crowd, the survivors will successfully pass this "escape game", and the former will also face the punishment of becoming a survivor.
But now, the Butcher wants to kill five people in one breath - and five people who haven't used any skills, which is like a fantasy!
Now, even the weird administrator can't sit still.
He has used the rules to set the maximum limit!
Delian has no memory of the academy, does not use superpowers, and even has ordinary people who can be called a burden next to him!
Even so, the Butcher 03 didn't even hurt a hair on his head!
What if that adult knew that he couldn't even deal with a member of the academy, and directly took back the fragments and imposed punishment!
A new rule was quietly generated.
[An unexpected situation has been detected. Hunting Ground No. 03 will be re-integrated and reshuffled. A butcher will be selected to cooperate in the hunt.]
[The decision method will be negotiated by each party. The restrictions are lifted...]
The system prompt sounded in the cabin in the woods, without giving anyone time to react.
The blond man who was sitting and crying without any shame in the last second stood up with a somersault.
- Punched Austin in the nose!
"No one can compete with me for the spot!" Ford roared.
Administrator: "Please remember, once you are killed by a survivor, you will die completely and lose -"
"You are the only one who can talk nonsense, get out!"
Administrator: "..."
Delian: Now, I am a magician!
Habitual Thief (crazy): I am not exaggerating!
Ford: You are right, he is just so strong!
Austin (crazy x2): I'm not praising him!
This chapter sends 20 red envelopes, muah!
