Chapter 76: The Devil is Out
"It's OK, but it's a very troublesome thing." I briefly told Donghuang Taiyi about the situation in the class. I was not afraid that he would know something. After all, he was just an online friend.
Donghuang Taiyi then told me a terrible thing, that is, Fenglin Village was not the first place where the gatekeeper of the underworld appeared. According to his investigation, traces of the gatekeeper of the underworld also appeared in other places.
"I didn't expect this to be the case. Why are there so many gatekeepers of the underworld?" I asked in confusion.
"Didn't you see their names? The Gatekeepers of the Underworld, which means they are just gatekeepers." Donghuang Taiyi said.
"A gatekeeper is someone who guards the gate. That's what it means," I replied.
"Yes, I suspect that the gatekeepers of the underworld are scattered all over the country. Although they do not act together, they cooperate with each other. It is very troublesome." Donghuang Taiyi said.
"So how did these gatekeepers of the underworld obtain that kind of power? From what I can gather, they are just ordinary people," I said.
"I don't know about this, but based on my observation, the gatekeeper of the underworld may possess power that humans cannot imagine." Donghuang Taiyi said.
"What exactly do you think the gatekeeper of the underworld is?" I couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but they seem to be organized and spreading like a virus." Donghuang Taiyi.
I sighed and looked at my phone, not knowing what to say for a moment. But there is no doubt that the matter of the gatekeeper of the underworld is no longer our business.
From Fenglin Village to the police station and our classroom, the gatekeepers of the underworld appeared in these unconnected places. This shows that perhaps in places we don't know about, such tragedies are still happening.
If you want to escape from this nightmare, you must kill the gatekeeper of the underworld. This is the most critical point.
The next day, I returned to the classroom in a daze, and the classroom was still full of people. Both boys and girls were hugging each other, without any shyness.
Seeing this, I shook my head helplessly, and at this moment, Chen Lanyu rushed over.
"Honey, you're here." Chen Lanyu looked at me and said.
"Yes, I'm here." I looked at Chen Lanyu and asked awkwardly, "Didn't you ask your grandma clearly when you went home?"
"I asked clearly, and it turned out that my grandma told you about this matter. She has agreed to it." Chen Lanyu said, looking at me angrily.
"What, agreed?" I was shocked, my eyes full of disbelief. You know, I was just fooling Chen Lanyu yesterday, her grandmother didn't agree to marry her granddaughter to me. But now it seems that her grandmother agreed?
For a moment, I didn’t know what to say. Instead, Chen Lanyu hugged me with an expression full of attachment.
In the classroom, Mi Qiqi looked at the two of us helplessly. Her expression was quite rich. On the other side, Mo Qingyu also looked resentful. She looked at the sweet Chen Lanyu with a sneer on her lips.
Facing Chen Lanyu's enthusiasm, I couldn't resist at all and could only hurriedly return to my seat. When I returned to the classroom, I was inevitably scolded by Zhao Pengyu.
"Zhang Fan, you really were lying to me. Chen Lanyu is definitely being seduced by you." Zhao Pengyu looked at me and smiled.
"Stop it." I waved my hand and said impatiently, "Let's see what perverted tasks the gatekeeper of the underworld will send out today."
"That's right. The Gatekeeper of the Underworld has issued many perverted tasks. I hope this time it won't be..." Zhao Pengyu just said this, and suddenly his expression froze. Because the Gatekeeper of the Underworld's tasks have appeared on his mobile phone.
This mission is also quite cruel and terrifying.
"Five people are randomly selected for a killing competition. The rules are as follows."
"Within three days of the start of the game, a killing competition will be held. The target of the killing can be classmates in the same class or classmates from other classes. Even teachers and deans can be targeted."
"Anyway, at the end of three days, the person who has killed the least will be executed. If there are more than two people at the end, they will all be executed together."
"The five students are as follows: Liu Ying, Zhao Pengyu, Mo Qingyu, Liu Meijia, and Zhang Fan."
"Damn it, they want us to kill someone." Zhao Pengyu stood up suddenly, his expression extremely terrified. The others were also completely stunned when they saw the task in front of them.
We never thought that the gatekeeper of the underworld would let us kill people, and the one who kills the most people can survive.
"How could this happen?" I looked at my phone, my face pale. After a long while, I trembled and said, "Is it really going to be a river of blood?"
"What should we do?" Zhao Pengyu looked at me with an indescribable expression.
"I don't know." I shook my head, my expression full of frustration.
The other people in the class also looked at us one by one, with expressions of indescribable fear. At this moment, the monitor stood up, looked at us, and said helplessly: "There is no other way now . We can only do what the gatekeeper of the underworld asks."
"But the gatekeeper of the underworld wants us to kill someone." Liu Meijia stood up and shouted. She was just a girl, and she couldn't accept such a thing at all.
"I know, but there is no other way now. This is the only way." The squad leader said gritting his teeth.
"But I won't kill anyone, and I dare not kill anyone," Liu Meijia shouted excitedly.
"I know, but you have to do this now!" the squad leader looked at her angrily.
Liu Meijia had nothing to say and buried her head on the table and started crying.
The others looked at each other with indescribable expressions. The monitor looked at us, and after a while he slowly said, "I don't have any way to deal with this killing competition. I only ask you not to attack anyone in the class."
"That's right, don't attack us. You can go find someone from another class."
"Yes. Otherwise you will be our common enemy."
"Please, don't do anything to us."
I looked at my phone, and after a while I said helplessly: "I promise you, even if we take action this time, we will go find members from other classes."
Zhao Pengyu nodded immediately, and the other contestants also agreed one by one.
"Since the game has started, I'll leave first." Liu Ying smiled slightly, then turned her head to look at me, then turned around and left the classroom.
I looked at Liu Ying's back, trembling all over, and didn't say a word for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Pengyu looked at me and asked.
"You must stay away from her, don't get close to her. Otherwise you will die." I looked at her seriously and said, with a vigilant expression.
But I know Liu Ying. She is ruthless and absolutely a devil.
