Chapter 266: Online Dating Scam Record (Twenty-nine)
The last time the lights were forcibly turned off was at 12 a.m. when the "Punisher" arrived.
The fact that they arrived three hours earlier undoubtedly disrupted yesterday's process and further indicated a more dangerous night situation. Guo Guo and the others had already been prepared.
But when they saw the number of complaint forms with abnormalities, they couldn't help but gasp.
There is so much more than on the first day.
One by one, the faces of the girls, each with a different expression , emerged from the paper. The flashlight's range was limited, and Shi Qingqing didn't dare approach the four-piece red-line prop set. Zhang You and Guo Guo worked together to illuminate the space, and they also used a disposable lighting prop to clearly see all the complaint forms.
They floated in the air, some were crying, some were laughing, and some were shouting anxiously with their mouths open, as if they were reminding someone of something.
"No, the light is too dim." Guo Guo squinted his eyes hard, but still couldn't see the girl's lip shape.
But in an instant, clusters of thick black liquid burst out from the complaint form, tearing and drowning the girls' faces.
"Oh, what a waste of the copy reminder." Guo Guo breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Qingqing shook her head: "There's nothing to waste. I didn't even want to remind you about the copy."
Guo Guo: ...It makes sense, and I can’t refute it.
Zhang You went over and did a rough count. There were about a dozen complaint forms destroyed in this wave, equivalent to more than half of the victimized female students in the dormitory building being wiped out. Among the few remaining people were familiar names like 606, Shi Qingqing, and Li Qi.
"Oh, right." Guo Guo suddenly remembered something: "Sister You, you..."
If the students who died at night were all paying back the "price" of their virtual lovers, then wouldn't Zhang You, who had just purchased the virtual lover service during evening study, also have to pay back the price?
In the dim light, Zhang You seemed to smile bitterly, and black blood slowly flowed out of her nose.
"Yes, that's it."
Before he finished speaking, several people seemed to sense something and turned their heads at the same time, only to see a figure appear in their sight on the balcony without any warning.
This time, it’s different from all the NPCs that climbed up and attacked before—this one is a man!
The "boy" was just a shadow at first, but as he walked through the window and into the dormitory without any hesitation, his body outline became clearer and clearer except for his blank face.
It walked straight towards Zhang You.
Guo Guo activated his skill without hesitation. The light of [Purification] lit up in the house and penetrated the boy's body directly without causing any damage.
Shi Qingqing reminded him, "Try with your four props!"
Yes, the pen and red line props seemed to have an unusually restraining effect on ghosts. Guo Guo threw everything at Zhang You, but it still didn't stop the boy from approaching. Then, a mouth suddenly opened on its empty face, and a strange voice rang out from it:
"Don't you like me the most?"
Guo Guo: “…”
Zhang You: “…”
You are really confident in yourself.
Zhang You didn't seem to want to say anything about this, but her hands still rose uncontrollably and strangled her neck from front to back.
"Zhang You!"
Guo Guo immediately rushed over, passed through the boy's airy body, and grabbed Zhang You's arm.
If she did strength training regularly, she would be as strong as Wanqing.
Guo Guo thought as he heard the sound of bones breaking.
The shadow of the virtual lover also disappeared at the moment Zhang You broke his own neck with his own hands.
Guo Guo tried everything he could, but the best he could do was to freeze Zhang You like he had saved Zheng Wanqing.
This skill belonged to Zhang You. She had once discussed it with Guo Guo and the others, explaining how to inherit the skill book and use the skills within it if she died. Now, when it came time to use it, Guo Guo had forgotten most of it and could only painstakingly imitate it by referring to her memory and the props she had.
In fact, Tang Xinjue, Zheng Wanqing, Zhang You... everyone in 606 had explained these things, but Guo Guo was only serious when he spoke himself, and never listened seriously.
She always thought that it would be impossible for her to be the one left at the end to bear everything.
Before she was 21, she had never realized that so many of her assumptions in the world turned out to be contrary to her wishes.
After an unknown amount of time, a thin layer of ice spread over Zhang You's body. Like Zheng Wanqing, she lay quietly on her bed in the dormitory, seemingly only temporarily asleep.
Guo Guo stood beside the two beds and watched for a while. She thought she would cry miserably, but when things really happened at a speed that was difficult to react to, she couldn't cry anymore.
The imposter never missed the chance to poke a pang of pity: "Tsk, look at you guys, I feel a little sorry for you. If you had known the outcome would be like this, why did you insist on doing it for so long? In my opinion, you should just give up and just leave with your roommate. Maybe you can actually become students in the university together. Wouldn't that be great?"
"You need to think it through." Shi Qingqing wasn't sure if Guo Guo would waver, but she still advised, "Things in the university town are definitely not ... You only have one chance to live. Once you give it up, there's no way back. Cherish life; it's precious."
"I know." Guo Guo shook his head.
For some reason, she remembered the group of NPC girls who wanted to take her away in the health inspection copy.
She didn't leave then, and her choice wouldn't change now.
What's more, it's far from the end...definitely not the end!
"There is a prophecy."
Guo Guo suddenly spoke.
"What?" Shi Qingqing didn't understand.
"Didn't you ask us before if we had offended any special beings?" Guo Guo unraveled his memory:
"We can't count the number of people we've offended, but if we say 'special', there's one thing that's even more special than even the dungeon NPCs—"
"That was a candidate, no, a group of candidates, who had an unusually close relationship with the monster NPC."
Immediately, Guo Guo told about his experience of meeting Awan in the transformation community.
The vision that predicted the internal strife in 606, Awan's solemn declaration that Tang Xinjue would undoubtedly die, and the curse of the "bad student"...
These confusing and mysterious messages all correspond to the experiences since the exam, making it difficult not to doubt the connection between them.
"Candidates? Bad students?"
Shi Qingqing was also stunned. Since she was summoned here, the content of the communication seemed to be beyond her cognitive capacity for the first time.
The basis of her confusion was simple:
"How could a ghoul, a creature outside the rules, be connected to the examinees?"
If this is true, it points to another problem that is beyond her imagination:
This shows that there is a group of candidates who have also mastered methods to go beyond the rules or even violate the rules to achieve certain goals!
"This isn't a curse. Ghouls aren't something that can be summoned by a curse." Shi Qingqing's face wrinkled slightly, her back teeth grinding painfully together, finally revealing a hint of her inhuman habits and form. "What on earth is University Town doing? They haven't discovered anything. They've locked us up for so long, haven't they realized how difficult the human brain is?"
Although it was a headache, Shi Qingqing was able to quickly find some corresponding information from her memory based on the new information provided by Guo Guo.
"If there really were students involved, then regardless of whether the mastermind was from the university town or not, they couldn't possibly have hired ghouls who had been in and out of the university town to do the work under the supervision of the Education Bureau."
"To avoid detection, this ghoul hasn't entered the core area in at least a hundred cycles. It's likely that it's always been circling around these dungeons. As far as I can remember, there seems to be only one person who meets all of these conditions, and that person is said to be very powerful..."
As the faker's expression suddenly changed, Shi Qingqing's voice suddenly sank:
"I ask your name through my mouth, seeing life, are you a human being?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xin Jue, who had already rushed to the balcony like lightning, froze, her body frozen in place. Then, the pale skin on her face began to crack and fall away, revealing patches of bluish texture.
She, no, it should be said that he, was like a large piece of cement that was squeezed into the girl's body and then split apart by the sunlight. The moment he completely realized that he was defeated, he screamed ferociously and angrily!
