Chapter 74: Evil God (Thirty-Six)
Before Qiao Yuan could finish her words, Fu Xiuzhu's voice had already sounded: "Now is not the time to talk about this."
This was the first sentence Fu Xiuzhu had spoken since she and Yu Ruzhou started walking together, and just from the sound of her voice, it could even be described as righteous.
Qiao Yuan turned his head and saw that Fu Xiuzhu was obviously talking to Yu Ruzhou. If Fu Xiuzhu had not accidentally revealed his attitude before, the people present would have been deceived by his attitude.
If he hadn't considered his character, Yu Ruozhou would have wanted to say "Why are you pretending?" He had previously thought that Fu Xiuzhu's targeting was a bit inexplicable, but now it seemed that it was because Fu Xiuzhu was interested in Qiao Yuan, but he didn't know whether it was out of sincerity or other reasons.
I didn’t expect that not only did I have a younger brother, but there was also Fu Xiuzhu.
Yu Ruozhou made a "tsk" sound in his heart. Although Qiao Yuan was surrounded by many suitors, fortunately, from the current point of view, Qiao Yuan was more interested in him. This was also due to the fact that he was similar to the person the other party was talking about. It seemed that he was destined to gain Qiao Yuan's life value.
However, Fu Xiuzhu's repeated words had already made the naturally arrogant Yu Ruzhou somewhat unhappy. He deliberately moved closer to Qiao Yuan in front of him, and said to Qiao Yuan as if he was really moved by Fu Xiuzhu's words, "That's right, but even if you didn't say it, I already understood your answer."
The corners of his lips curled up, and his smile revealed the cunning unique to young people.
Qiao Yuan was still thinking about how to get away with it, but she didn't expect that Yu Ruzhou had already answered for her so considerately. She couldn't help but glance sideways, and her gaze happened to meet Yu Ruzhou's. In the eyes of others, it seemed like a tacit understanding.
Although he guessed that Qiao Yuan approached Yu Ruzhou for other purposes, Song Yanchi still felt that he was on the verge of exploding, and Fu Xiuzhu's face was as gloomy as water.
It was the blue team that stepped out to smooth things over, reminding everyone that it was time to search the next classroom.
Zhang Ying regretted cooperating with the Red Team because he wanted health points. Along the way, his strong intuition told him that it would be better to face the ghosts instead of continuing with the Red Team. This feeling came inexplicably, and he told the others on the Blue Team, but they just thought he was allergic to the love for the Red Team, and advised him not to think too much, saying that he would meet his own love one day. What's more, if the Red Team really broke down, it would be a good time for them to pick up the leak, so they couldn't leave!
Zhang Ying: “…”
That was clearly a premonition of danger, not resentment towards other people being in love!
However, he also knew that relying on the word "intuition" alone would not convince his teammates. But it was not realistic for him to leave the team. After all, not to mention that this mission required teamwork, his health was not enough for him to act alone, so he could only temporarily suppress the ominous premonition in his heart.
Fortunately, although there were occasional quarrels within the Red Team, the search progress did not fall behind, and they were almost done searching the entire Qiuzhi Building. Naturally, a lot of props were consumed during this period.
The corridors of the Qiuzhi Building were winding, so in order to avoid getting lost, everyone walked in order. There were lecture halls and small classrooms in the teaching building, and because of previous experience, everyone quickly searched almost all of them.
In the bathroom on the first floor, they met someone other than the red and blue teams. There was a girl who looked crazy, with messy hair, looking up at them.
When the girl heard the noise and crawled out, everyone thought they had encountered some new ghost and subconsciously took out their props. Lin Xi even threw out the talisman paper, but the girl dodged it.
It was Qiao Yuan who saw that she was a human being and stopped everyone from doing that.
Only the opponent's upper body was left, and the body below the waist had disappeared. He could only crawl on the ground with his arms, with his organs scattered along the way, and a long trail of blood along the way. Judging from the bumpy edge of the waist, the opponent's lower body was not even cut off neatly, but seemed to have been gnawed away by something. Even the most advanced healing props were powerless to save him.
The girl's bloodshot eyes swept over everyone, or more accurately, their wrists, and then she revealed a crazy smile, but it looked like she was crying: "You...are finished..."
"You will stay here with me like I did..."
After hearing her words, everyone instantly realized who the girl in front of them was——
The loser who was chosen by the infant spirit to participate in the mission in the last round but failed to find it and was forced to stay.
I didn't expect that the other party was still alive.
Lin Xi immediately walked forward in ecstasy, while Song Yanchi asked the girl directly if she knew where the baby spirit was. However, the girl just bit her fingertips and laughed nervously: "I won't tell you..."
"All my companions are dead, and I am the only one still alive. Please stay with me..."
The other party's impolite words caused everyone present to change their expressions.
Lin Xi directly took out the props and threatened: "You..."
However, the girl was no longer afraid of props, or rather, she was no longer afraid of anything. As if she didn't notice what Lin Xi was doing, she suddenly stretched out her hand and made a gesture of holding a child, humming a song: "Little rabbit, open the door..."
Seeing the girl's appearance, everyone realized that she had gone crazy a long time ago , and she was now determined to get them to stay with her, so it was impossible for her to give them any useful information. Therefore, they had given up wasting time on her.
Lin Xi also put away her props. Although she was very dissatisfied with the girl's attitude, she was not ready to waste her precious props on her. But she didn't expect that when they turned around to leave, the girl reached out and grabbed Lin Xi's ankle, who was closest to her. No matter how Lin Xi kicked and hit her, she didn't let go, and laughed strangely: "Stay with me, you will become like me..."
Lin Xi already felt that her body was much weaker than before, and the girl’s grip on her ankle was quite strong. Even with the help of her teammates, there was no way to pry the girl’s hand apart. In the end, she could only use props to solve the problem after confirming that the other party was not a player.
At the moment when she was engulfed by flames, everyone saw the vicious smile on the girl's face.
"Mad!" Lin Xi couldn't help but curse when he thought about using a prop.
Zhang Ying couldn't help but shudder. Although he already knew that the team that couldn't be found would be left behind forever, the miserable condition of the girl still caught him by surprise.
Qiao Yuan also realized the cruelty of this infant spirit, and in some ways it was indeed very similar to the evil god. She felt that there was no need to do a DNA test, as there was a 99.9% chance that this child was related to him.
It is conceivable that if the evil god was not found and was left in this world, the ending would be even more tragic.
She glanced at Fu Xiuzhu, who was standing in the shadows and her expression could not be seen clearly.
After entering the classroom, everyone present quickly got into the mood.
Compared with the previous tiered classroom, the small classroom is obviously easier to search. The interior of the classroom can be seen almost at a glance from the door. The main places to search are under the podium, in the desk pockets, and other hidden corners.
After all, according to the description in the group, the size of the infant spirit is smaller than that of a normal baby.
Yu Ruozhou still followed Qiao Yuan closely, as obedient as a puppy clinging to its master. He could feel that Song Yanchi and Fu Xiuzhu's eyes never left him, but so what?
He was the one following Qiao Yuan.
After entering the searching state, no one spoke much and the atmosphere in the classroom seemed a little silent for a moment, with only the sound of quietly turning over tables and chairs.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, an accident happened.
Qiao Yuan heard a loud scream, followed by the sound of bones breaking.
If she heard correctly, the scream came from a member of the blue team named Sun Liao. He was a taciturn boy with a short flat head. Qiao Yuan felt that he didn't look like a student, but more like a player. In real life, he should be a bodyguard, but after entering the dungeon, his appearance and age were adjusted to match that of a student.
However, at this moment, this man who had rarely spoken let out a scream.
Everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from.
Sun Liao was originally rummaging through the tables and chairs in the back row. Even though the copy adjusted his body and age parameters, his figure was still tall and strong among his peers. When Qiao Yuan glanced at the classroom before, he found that he was half-kneeling and bending over to search the table pockets, perhaps to make it easier to search , and the normal-sized tables and chairs looked a little small in front of his tall body. But now when he looked over, he found that his entire upper body was squeezing into the table pockets.
Or it was like being forcibly dragged in, because the other party's lower body was struggling outside, and Sun Liao's muffled cry for help could be vaguely heard from the table pocket: "Help, help..."
Although Lin Xi and Zhang Ying were not far away from Sun Liao, they did not dare to rush forward because they did not know the situation in the table pocket. Out of self-preservation, they kept weighing in their minds whether to rush forward to save people.
Sun Liao obviously realized this, and after shouting "Help" several times, he said in a shrill voice: "Yes..."
His words were drowned out by the sound of flesh being torn, and no one was able to hear what followed the "yes" he said.
Fortunately, at this moment, a "chuckle" came from the desk pocket, which sounded very cheerful.
Everyone present perked up and realized what the sound was.
Qiao Yuan's eyes lit up: "It's the son of the evil god!"
