Chapter 114
Another trance.
Li Xing opened his eyes again and again and came to a whole new world.
He was a little confused.
He seemed to have changed from a traveler who simply went to Douluo Continent to a traveler who wandered among the heavens.
Is this also the influence of [Nothingness]?
……
……
White light swept across the horizon.
Even if Li Xingyi closed his eyes tightly, he still couldn't filter out the dazzling light. He only felt that his eyeballs were pierced by countless fine needles, and the temperature of his body gradually rose...
"Wait!"
Li Xingyi woke up from the nightmare with a scream, climbed up from the desk and leaned against the back of the chair. His clothes were already soaked with cold sweat, and he couldn't help but breathe heavily.
The warm morning sunlight shone in from the window, and through the mist it hit Li Xingyi's somewhat pale face.
Look around.
There was no one in the classroom except myself.
However, the textbooks were neatly arranged on the desks, and school uniform jackets were scattered on the backs of some chairs.
I took out the mobile phone that I had secretly brought into school from the innermost layer of a book in my desk, wiped the mist off the screen with a tissue, opened the screen and looked at the date.
2024年3月17日,早上7点59分。
Then he let out a long breath as if relieved from a heavy burden.
"Fortunately...Fortunately, it's just a dream!"
Li Xingyi placed his right hand in front of his heart and comforted himself softly. His heartbeat gradually calmed down. The vivid and horrific scenes in his dream became blurred after he woke up, just like other dreams, until he could not recall them anymore...
Only the lingering fear of surviving the disaster remains.
Suddenly, the tightly closed classroom door was pushed open, and a student with a panicked expression ran in. It was Li Xingyi's classmate and good brother Lin Hei, nicknamed Xiao Hei.
"Brother Qing, you have to go to the laboratory for an open class in the first period, why are you still in the classroom?"
Lin Hei asked in surprise, but did not stop what he was doing. He hurriedly took two books from his desk and turned away.
"Brother Qing, I won't care about you anymore. If you don't leave now, you'll be late. That old Deng won't let those who are late feel good!"
"Laboratory? Open class?"
At this time, Li Xingyi's mind was still a little unclear.
Looking at the course schedule that I had copied myself on the table...
The first class was indeed biology class, but Li Xingyi couldn't remember when the biology teacher notified him that he would attend the open class.
Seeing that the bell was about to ring, Li Xingyi recalled how his biology teacher hated being late, so he decisively picked up his book and ran out.
Open the classroom door.
Moment!
Li Xingyi felt like he lost consciousness for a moment, the moment he opened the door.
The noisy sounds of the school around us also stopped, and it was so quiet.
"What the hell is this?" Li Xingyi asked in confusion, covering his head.
It was like a thick fog, with the blood-red sunset shining through and refracting into the fog.
For some unknown reason, Li Xingyi couldn't control his legs and walked towards the railing of the corridor. A bad feeling rose from his body.
But he couldn't control himself and couldn't help but raise his head.
"Uh... ah!"
The moment he looked up, Li Xingyi found that he could move.
However, the first action was to be so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
In the sky above the school, there was a huge, terrifying eyeball. The eyeball was filled with pupils, and thick blood vessels connected the pupils, dripping blood-red liquid from time to time.
Even more terrifying is...
Just as Li Xingyi looked over, the countless pupils in the eyeballs also looked at Li Xingyi.
The next second, a huge translucent screen appeared at the eye of the sky, and words slowly appeared on the screen.
At the same time, an ethereal voice simultaneously read the above words.
[All players have arrived, the game begins! ]
[Game name: Blood Hospital Past. ]
【Location: Jiangbei No. 1 Senior High School. 】
[Game goal: Find the real secret of this school. ]
【award:?】
Looking at this scene, Li Xingyi's face couldn't help but tremble, and the biting coldness surrounded him.
This was exactly the same scene as in his dream!
In an instant, Li Xingyi couldn't help but recall the nightmare that he had already forgotten.
Soon after this so-called "game" began, I was chased by some indescribable "creatures"... not all of them were creatures...
Finally, with no way to escape, Li Xingyi felt like he was being swallowed.
That was the feeling of every inch of skin being torn apart alive.
Li Xingyi dared to guarantee that no one would want to experience it.
"Fuck!" Li Xing cursed angrily.
Finally I was able to control my body. I quickly got up from the ground and ran back to the classroom.
The first thing I did was to take out my cell phone from the desk and try to contact the outside world.
"Signal! Signal!"
Unfortunately, there is no signal here at all. Even the emergency call to the police that does not require a signal cannot be made. Li Xingyi was so anxious that he could not help scratching his hair frantically with both hands.
But this is not a solution.
After calming down, Li Xingyi went to the back of the classroom and got two iron garbage shovels. He then stuck the shovels on the desk and broke them. In this way, Li Xingyi got two iron rods.
outside the window.
The blood mist completely enveloped the school.
It is impossible to see what the outside of the school looks like with the naked eye.
In other words, climbing over the wall and running away from school is definitely not an option!
Staying in the classroom without taking any action would also be an extremely stupid choice. Once those things poured in from the front door and the back door at the same time, the chances of survival would be infinitely close to zero.
"Rooftop!"
A light bulb suddenly flashed in his head and Li Xingyi thought of a good place to go.
Although there is only one entrance to the rooftop, it is relatively spacious, and has buildings such as reservoirs that can be used to perform the "Qin King Circling the Pillar", so the chances of survival are definitely greater than in the teaching building.
Thinking of this, Li Xingyi walked out.
Instead of running, he moved slowly step by step, trying not to make any noise.
Turn left after exiting the classroom and you will see the stairs.
Li Xingyi stuck to the wall and slowly moved forward.
Zizizi!
Just as Li Xing reached the stairs and was about to start going upstairs, he suddenly heard a sound.
The sound was very small, but the surroundings were so quiet that it was extremely obvious.
The sound probably came from downstairs.
So Li Xingyi carefully stuck his head out.
But what caught my eye was that at the corner of the stairs downstairs, there stood a humanoid creature, but that thing definitely couldn't be a human!
His body was covered with pustules, and he was holding a bone in his hand that was about the same length as his calf.
What's even more outrageous is that his head is turned upside down, with his chest and head facing completely opposite directions.
"Fuck!"
Li Xing shouted unconsciously, then fell silent as soon as he came to his senses.
It's too late.
Hearing the sound, the humanoid creature downstairs looked up, and after seeing Li Xingyi, it made a "kazikazi" sound, and then began to run towards the direction where Li Xingyi was upstairs. The "zizizi" sounds around also began to increase, and from the direction of the sounds, they were all moving towards the direction where Li Xingyi was.
Now I don't have to walk slowly to avoid making any noise.
It's too late!
The next second, Li Xing ran away.
However, the thing below seemed to be faster than Li Xingyi, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer.
"Damn it, this isn't a fair fight!"
Reaching the platform at the corner between the fourth and fifth floors, Li Xingyi stopped and turned to face the humanoid creature behind him.
The creature was still seven steps away from reaching Li Xingyi's location.
Li Xingyi prepared in advance, holding the iron rod tightly with both hands, and then raised it to his right shoulder...
This is the posture of swinging a baseball!
"Still chasing? Get out of here!"
While roaring, Li Xing swung his stick one by one.
With the addition of adrenaline, this is undoubtedly Li Xingyi's strongest attack since he was born.
"Kaz~"
The humanoid creature made a sharp sound, then rolled to the fourth floor, and lay motionless on the ground with its limbs broken into a position that only a model could do.
"That's it? If that's it, then I won't run away."
This blow seemed to give Li Xingyi some courage.
But not long after, the humanoid creature began to move again.
He began to use his hands to bend the deformed part back, and instantly the part that was bent back could be used freely as if it had never been injured.
Li Xingyi immediately realized that something was wrong.
Then he turned around and continued running towards the rooftop.
……
"Damn, how can these bastards chase so well?!"
Li Xingyi climbed up the escalator while looking back at the creatures that were following him closely.
The number of those creatures has reached an outrageous level. The entire staircase is blocked by those creatures one after another, but this also slows down the speed at which the creatures climb up.
From this point it can be seen that this creature should be without intelligence.
"We're finally here!" Li Xing said as he pushed open the door to the rooftop.
"what?"
"Is that... other students?"
On the rooftop, several students in strange attire were sitting on the railing and chatting.
There was no trace of fear on their faces.
Instead, I burst into laughter.
"Hey! The monster is coming, run!"
Li Xingyi shouted at those people.
In Li Xingyi's opinion, those people were probably students who were just hanging around in school, which was why they managed to escape the disaster on the rooftop. As for their clothes...
Maybe they are cosplaying as Hot Blood High School?
Boom!
The next second, Li Xingyi only heard a loud noise.
The creature behind him that had just climbed to the rooftop also fell to the ground.
Then there were endless sounds of "da da da... bang bang bang... puff puff puff..." and creatures kept falling to the ground until the entrance to the rooftop was completely blocked.
Those people also put down their hands...
gun? !
Li Xingyi was a little confused.
This is school!
Where did those guns come from? And judging from the posture, they are real guns! More importantly, isn't gun prohibition in your own country?
On the other side, seeing Li Xingyi's expression, several people looked at each other and laughed.
"Hahaha... This couldn't be the first time that person has performed 'Double Shadow'. His reaction is too funny!"
"Fatty Wang, you're still complaining about others? You even peed your pants the first time you went to Die Ying!"
"Okay, go and take a look."
The man who stopped him was about 1.85 meters tall, about the same height as Li Xingyi, only two centimeters shorter than Li Xingyi. Judging from his appearance, he should be a middle-aged man with a big beard and a somewhat rough appearance...
Following the middle-aged man's order, the people behind him stopped laughing.
They jumped off the guardrail and followed the middle-aged man towards Li Xingyi.
When he arrived in front of Li Xingyi, the middle-aged man stretched out his hand, while Li Xingyi on the other side was still in a daze and did not respond.
The middle-aged man found this scene really interesting, and immediately followed the hand that was extended to pat Li Xingyi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Looking at you like this, are you a greenhorn?"
After being patted, Li Xingyi was no longer distracted.
But everything in front of me still feels inexplicable.
"Gun! How come you have a gun? Aren't you afraid of... No, there are monsters down there!"
He slowly turned around, only to see corpses all over the ground. Li Xingyi then asked, "What's going on?"
"Not really. Even if it's your first time, you won't be scared by these things. It's impossible for you to come in without even getting the qualification certificate for superposition." Fatty Wang said with disdain.
"Duplicate Shadow Qualification Certificate? What is that?"
"No, you don't even know the qualification certificate for overlapping shadows, how did you get in?"
"Yeah, yeah, what's your star level now?"
"Xing? Duan?"
Li Xingyi's clueless look left the team members speechless.
The middle-aged man who was leading the group just burst into laughter.
"Great! Great! I'm so lucky that I got to encounter this!"
The team members were puzzled when they saw the middle-aged man, and then asked, "Captain, why are you sick like the old man?"
"You know nothing!"
Then, the well-informed captain said meaningfully: "He is not a human being!"
"He's not a human? What does that mean?"
"I'm not a human? How come I'm not a human?"
The middle-aged man also realized that there was something wrong with his expression, and then explained: "Didn't you learn the knowledge class well? You don't even know this. In the shadow world, there is about a one in a hundred thousand chance of the Son of Shadow appearing. He is different from the rest of us! The Son of Shadow is born with an affinity for the shadow world. If this is cultivated, it will be worth several in the overlapping shadows!"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang spat out the water he had just drunk.
"Pfft... He's the Son of Shadow? Don't be kidding me!"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said slowly: "Tell me, besides the Son of Shadow, who else can be so ignorant in the Shadow World?"
"And I just checked with a scanner, and the Alliance shows that there is no information about this person. Doesn't this prove that he is the Son of Shadow?"
The next second, several members of the team fell into a carnival at the same time.
This is because there is a reward for discovering the Shadow Child.
For example, today's shadow of 'Blood Hospital Past' has a difficulty rating of two stars.
Their team completed the Shadow Overlay, and each member received 500 Alliance Contribution Points as a reward. As for the reward for discovering the Son of Shadow, each person received 8,000 points!
This translates to sixteen missions.
The middle-aged man walked towards Li Xingyi, shook hands with him and introduced himself: "My name is Jian Williams, second star, fifth dan, and I am the captain of this Overlay Team. You should follow us first, and I will explain the situation to you later."
"Okay... okay..." Li Xing agreed in a daze.
In fact, Li Xingyi was still thinking about something.
Judging from the tones of several people, they were like fictional characters in the game, and this so-called overlapping image was like a copy of the game.
They are the real human beings!
But think about it carefully, is it possible that everything I experienced in the past ten years was fake?
All this happened so fast that Li Xingyi had no time to react...
