Chapter 135 Dormitory Friendship League (Twenty-Seven)
After a brief moment of shock, the shield girl quickly calmed herself down, turned around quickly as if she had seen nothing, and forcibly shook off the stiffness and coldness that had almost swept through her body.
That was definitely not how she felt. No matter what she saw, no matter how shocked she was, she would never allow herself to give up her ability to move.
Then there is only one possibility... The girl had a vague guess in her mind, but she always followed her intuition and did not think further.
As soon as she turned around, she discovered that there was more than one human-faced monster on the balcony.
In addition to the one that climbed up from her side, there was actually a human-faced monster on Yueqiong's side. Judging from its size, it was even bigger than the one on her side, and its facial features were even more bizarre and uglier.
Yue Qiong's current situation seemed to be much worse than that of the shield girl. Just now, he, like the shield girl, saw familiar faces on the giant face. However, these flashing faces were both male and female, belonging to many different young students——
The only thing in common was that they all died in his hands not long ago.
Among them were the big guy who cursed him madly before his death, the candidates he killed, and his own roommate who died on this balcony.
Regardless of which faces they were, they were all laughing crazily and silently at this moment, with the corners of their mouths pulled up to their ears in a strange way, as if they were happy but also mocking, and their eyes were staring straight at Yue Qiong.
Perhaps because his mentality had just been broken, Yue Qiong lost his mind for a moment. By the time he reacted, it was too late to retract the attack. The black mist snake hissed and pierced through the man's face, tearing a crack in the thin, dark blue skin, and black and red blood gushed out.
After being attacked and bleeding, the familiar face immediately disappeared, leaving only the huge deformed facial features at the beginning. However, the smile on the human face became even deeper -
The next moment, the guardrail that was originally standing firmly on the edge of the balcony suddenly cracked into a gap, the size of which was exactly the same as the wound on a person's face!
"Don't attack it. "
Tang Xinjue blocked Zheng Wanqing's fist, and the scene he had just observed with his mental power emerged in his mind.
"Our attacks on it will be converted into real damage to the balcony guardrail. When we penetrate it, it can also enter the balcony and attack us."
Zheng Wanqing came back to her senses with a start: "What a close call! I didn't intend to hit it, but when I saw its half-human, half-ghost appearance, I felt very annoyed and wanted to hit it? Fortunately, you stopped me!"
Tang Xin Jue: "That's it trying to seduce you."
She looked at the huge human face that was currently just wriggling outside the guardrail. Although they were one meter away from it, she still felt disgusted and uncomfortable as if it was touching her face.
She paused, "In fact, to some extent, they have already attacked us."
But this time, the impact is concentrated on the minds of the candidates.
Mental attack?
Zhang You immediately turned to look at Tang Xin Jue: "Doesn't that mean..."
"Yeah." Tang Xinjue smiled slightly, "Isn't this a coincidence?"
This is really a flood that has flushed the Dragon King Temple, which is quite similar to when Gao Ying tried to control her mentally.
That's useless.
As early as the first moment the human-faced elf appeared, she directly blocked 90% of the mental fluctuations emitted by the other party. Otherwise, it would not be just Zheng Wanqing who would be affected.
Therefore, now she is the only one who can see the constantly changing shadow on the human face. The shadow sometimes turns into the grinning Gao Ying, sometimes turns into a melee informer holding a Tang sword, and sometimes turns into the elf in the previous rounds.
These images had no effect on Tang Xin Jue, but for the candidates who had no mental defense, the impact was enormous.
Looking at the field, most of the balconies in the two buildings were empty with the doors and windows locked. Only a dozen dormitories were still struggling. Almost all of them could not control themselves and attacked the human-faced elves, and then had to face the consequences of the balcony fences losing their protection.
"Is it you? Are you here to seek revenge on me? No, don't come over. It was obviously because of the heavy rain that you fell down. It has nothing to do with me..."
On a balcony on the lower floor, the boy looked at the human face that had already entered the balcony with a look of despair. The dormitory window was right behind him, but he refused to retreat as if he was possessed. Instead, he roared in despair and poured all his attacks and props on the huge human face, as if he wanted to kill it head-on first.
But what made people even more desperate was that all the injuries inflicted on the elf were healed in an instant. The dark blue flesh and skin grew endlessly, and slowly squirmed to force the boy to the end of the balcony, until the latter dropped his arms in despair, and seemed to have entered a state of self-abandonment.
"Wake up!"
As the clear shout suddenly sounded, the boy's eyes, which had lost focus, seemed to clear up for a moment, and then the next moment, his ears were pierced by a terrifying scream -
While his ears were almost deafened, he was also completely awake.
This piercing demonic sound, which sounded like countless ghosts wailing and screaming at the same time, brought with it a spiritual force that made people's ears and eyes clear, doubling the torture of the sound waves and making it impossible for people to faint. When the sound finally disappeared, the crazy state that was originally stimulated by the hallucination was also completely discharged along with the sweat all over the body, without a trace left.
No worldly desires.
On the balcony of 303, Guo Liang cried out, holding onto the railing and retching in agony. Unable to tell if it was the aftereffects of the demonic sound or the human face, he retched for a full half minute before he lifted his head, tears welling up at his calm roommate from the Department of Therapy.
"Brother Bai, why did you only block yourself? What about our roommate relationship?"
The boy calmly released a group health recovery and corrected her, "From a medical point of view, what they just did to you is called fighting poison with poison."
In the distance, Tang Xin Jue put away the toilet plunger. The toilet plunger skill, which was strengthened by her mental power, was indeed much more effective, but there was no time to observe carefully at this moment. As soon as the scream stopped, she controlled the rubber head with her backhand to spit out water to fill the gap in the guardrail.
The mental hypnosis was broken, and he couldn't find a gap to get into the balcony. The huge face outside 606 had lost its smile and became angry and resentful. Its facial features were distorted to the point that it was almost unrecognizable as a human. Blood was spurting out crazily and corroding the guardrail.
“Found it!”
Zhang You took something out of his storage bag, relaxed his brows with a sense of relief, unscrewed the plastic bottle in his hand, and shook the transparent colloid inside.
[Furniture repair liquid: The dormitory will inevitably become tattered after living in it for a long time. What should I do if I can't afford to buy new furniture? The repair liquid can solve your troubles with one click! Although it seems to be a three-no brand with no after-sales service, it is very cheap. 】
This is also one of the weird little items they won from countless mall raffles. They only took it out from the bottom of the box and used it when decorating the dormitory this time. They didn’t expect it to come in handy now.
The repair fluid was poured onto the damaged guardrail and immediately solidified into pieces of filler. Zhang You was not sure whether it would be effective, but judging from the more distorted expression on the mutant's face, it was obvious that it was effective.
In contrast to the frantic activity in the other dormitories, the pace of 606 slowed down after the danger of the guardrail being damaged was alleviated. There was even a hint of mockery in the gazes directed at the monster.
Under the fierce glare of the mutant face, Zhang You took out three bottles of repair fluid.
Zhang You: "Is that enough? If not, there's more."
Mutated face: “…”
…
After 606 stabilized, the other dormitories that had been breached and regained consciousness also realized the situation, and took the initiative to retreat back to their dormitories, giving up the action of capturing elves.
"Alas, I finally understand. This so-called elf-catching reward is just like the welfare promised by capitalists, the discounts advertised by sales offices, and the burden reduction required by the Ministry of Education. It is only in the distance but cannot be achieved - it is all bullshit!"
Guo Liang concluded indignantly as he wrapped clothes around the railing. Luckily, with Brother Bai at their side, their dormitory balcony remained unbroken. After observing 606's solution, they copied their own approach and began patching it up. In the absence of repair fluid, they wrapped old clothes around the railing, and surprisingly, it worked.
"This should be one of the ways out the game leaves for us." Zhang Chi calmly analyzed: "If someone had thought of this from the beginning and covered the guardrails and walls with protective materials in advance, our dormitory might have been invulnerable according to the rules of the game."
Guo Liang was even more angry. "You have to be able to predict to this extent to survive. Then why did the game bring us in? To make up the numbers? Can't they just select everyone in the world with an IQ of 180 or above?"
"And now we can't fight or kill, so how can we continue to catch Pokémon? This rubbish game might as well just declare everyone a failure."
As his emotions got the best of him, Guo Liang accidentally used too much force with his hands, and the edge of the tattered guardrail cracked and was broken.
The mutant face quickly slipped in through the gap, but because it was moving so fast, it accidentally squeezed its eyeball out and it fell right into Guo Liang's hand.
"Hehe." The mutant's face pressed against Guo Liang's body, grinning.
Guo Liang: “…”
“Fuck! Aaaaaaaaahhh!!!”
Amid the screams that filled the air in Room 303, the shield girl put away her shield and decided to temporarily retreat back to the dormitory.
Although she guarded her own half of the balcony, Yue Qiong had lured a wolf into the other half. As soon as the man's face entered the balcony, it spread out on the ground, as if he wanted to wrap the entire balcony inside.
The reason why she stayed on the balcony was not only to complete the elf capture, but also to make sure Yue Qiong didn't sell out her roommate on purpose. But she soon discovered that although the mutant face was malicious, it would not attack the examinee, but would only focus on eroding the balcony, so Yue Qiong couldn't do it even if she wanted to sell out.
But what’s the point of eroding the balcony... There are only a few minutes left before the capture is completed. What on earth do these mutant elves want to do?
The shield girl couldn't figure it out and was too lazy to think about it. She sent her observations of the mutant's face to Tang Xinjue through the mental connection and planned to close the glass window and return to the dormitory.
"Don't rush back."
But the female voice in her mind stopped her.
Even though there was little time left, Tang Xinjue's voice was as orderly as ever, making it difficult to associate her with all those cruel and brutal actions, especially that screaming toilet plunger.
Tang Xin Jue said: "This round of capture has nothing to do with the human-faced elf on our balcony."
"I know this may be a little hard to understand," Tang Xin Jue connected to the other side and controlled the ice cone to shoot into the distance, "This thing on each of our balconies is targeting us. It cannot be destroyed. The more elves and candidates we kill , the bigger and more difficult it will be. But in essence, it is just a confusing option. No matter what its purpose is, it has nothing to do with our mission."
Bing Cone returned to the balcony with the things, and a piece of 606's cloak was successfully sunk.
She raised the corners of her mouth and said, "See those densely packed smaller faces on the wall outside? Those are what we want to capture this round."
The shield girl looked up following the sound, and saw countless dense faces of people clinging to the wall like leeches rolling in her field of vision. Most people were only concerned with losing san and dealing with the threats in front of them, and didn't even bother to capture them.
When Tang Xin Jue's last sentence was released, countless candidates' faces suddenly appeared on the dormitory windows that had already died down. The scene was as weird as that of mutant elves.
While everyone was still in doubt, 303, who was still holding out outside, had already followed suit and used props to grab a little human face and brought it in, which was easily transformed into an elf egg.
Candidate: ...damn it.
When they were full of confidence, the game hit them hard. When they knew when to give up, they found that it turned out to be a loss?
Is this fair?
The author has something to say:
Mutated human face: attack the city and destroy the stronghold!
