Chapter 253: Pale Fingers (2 in 1)

Queen Yanluo suddenly, very abruptly, without warning...... Kneeled down.

Oda Mai just lifted the knife and was about to cut his wrist, when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but move, and his hard face was slightly confused.

Queen Yanluo wrapped the heat around her body within half a meter, and did not leak half a cent out of half a meter.

Queen Yanluo's posture at this moment seemed to want to shrink herself in a thick turtle shell, not daring to move.

All the students in the second class of the third year, in an instant, the green light in their eyes suddenly dimmed, as if they were very excited on their heads, and suddenly after being said "general", they suddenly withered.

All the students huddled in all corners of the second class of the third year, as if they were infected by Queen Yanluo, and they were also trembling.

The situation in the second class of the third year was strangely reversed, the queen knelt on the ground for some reason, and the other students were trembling.

Ahh

What's going on here?

Is it moral degradation or a distortion of human nature?

For this sudden upheaval, Liu Ruyan and Gao Tiantian don't know what to do.

Oda Mai leaned against the wall and smiled coldly.

She's in high spirits.

She cut her knife to the blood.

She will be unbeatable.

She sheathed her knife and was about to—

"Let's go!"

Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan finally reacted and made their own choices.

After Queen Yanluo's heat was contained, the heat in the air was finally not so terrifying, the two of them were sweating, taking advantage of this inexplicable situation, they rushed out directly from their respective positions, one of them grabbed one of Oda Mai's arms, and without saying a word, he set up Oda Mai, who was ready to use the knife to enjoy double the pleasure, rushed out of the classroom through the back door, and ran away.

Oda Mai was expressionless, and slowly typed a question mark: "? ”

Cao Tiantian hated the iron and explained with hatred: "You are stupid! Have you forgotten that this is an escape mission, and our purpose is not to farm monsters, but to escape from this school! ”

While the three of them were running, Liu Ruyan gasped slightly: "Yes, now is not a good time to farm monsters, and there are no obvious benefits to farming monsters...... Besides, do you really think that with Queen Yanluo's strength, we can really kill her when she kneels? ”

Cao Tiantian didn't know what she remembered, her face changed, and she shook her head frantically, expressing disbelief.

In fact.

Originally, according to the apostle's consistent style, Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan completely ignored the Oda dance.

After all, you're willing to stay and fight monsters to attract hatred as a tank, you and I are willing, and we didn't force you, while you pulled the boss to hate, we slipped away from the side, isn't this a normal operation?

But just when Oda Mai was about to draw a knife to cut Queen Yanluo, Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan appeared in front of them at the same time.

Those three options have a faint hint of hints.

Oda Mai ...... Can't die!

The force she showed was very useful in the future!

Cao Tiantian nodded secretly.

Really!

There is no endless road, and this trial turned out to be like this.

As long as it reaches a certain point in time, the narrator will give hints of escape little by little, so that the surviving apostles can discover the real way out of the various narrations and option prompts.

I see!

I see!

Cao Tiantian suddenly understood.

It turns out that this is the reason for the "time limit".

As time progresses, students and teachers in the school will demonize and become more and more weird, and "tips" will follow.

As the saying goes, there is no absolute dead end in the trial, that's the case!

Otherwise, according to normal circumstances, if they really didn't give any hints, they wouldn't have been able to find a real way to survive from Styx Junior High School in just three days.

Difficulty...... It's too high.

Escape trial, as the name suggests, this inner world is for escape, not for hard anals.

"Run!"

Mai Oda silently put away her knife.

Without hesitation, the three of them took two steps and three steps, and quickly walked down the stairs to the vast playground.

When Cao Tiantian, Oda Mai, and Liu Ruyan arrived at the playground, their faces were all surprised to varying degrees.

"This ...... Snowing? When? ”

Liu Ruyan's eyes condensed slightly. After a moment of silence, she cautiously stretched out her hand, and pieces of "snow" as delicate as goose feathers slowly drifted in mid-air, and finally part of it was carried by Liu Ruyan in the white palm.

Where the "snowflakes" are touched, there is no trace of coolness, and there is no sign of being melted by body temperature.

"This ...... Not snow. ”

Liu Ruyan said suddenly.

Cao Tiantian was stunned: "What is not snow?" ”

Liu Ruyan: "This is ash." That's right, like ashes produced after burning, this sky is 'gray'! ”

Now.

Styx Junior High School.

Whether it's the playground, the ground, the vegetation, everything as far as the eye can see, is covered by a blank and pale ash, at first glance, it looks like a sudden heavy snowfall, making this school park covered in snow, becoming a campus shrouded in ice and snow.

The three of them walked in the middle of the campus, and when they stepped on it, a fine dust was raised behind them, but soon, they were gradually covered by the ashes that kept falling from the sky, covering up the footprints.

Pale sky, pale ashes, vast earth, heaven and earth, desolation.

What a desolate and poignant view!

Even Mai Oda, who has always had only knives and knives in her mind, has an indifferent expression at the moment, staring at the sky, making people wonder what she is thinking.

The ash earth in front of him, and even the ash that fell on his body and shoulders, did not make Liu Ruyan and the three of them feel "dirty". Different from the ordinary dust in the real world, the "ash" fluttering everywhere in front of the eye is paler, purer, and more flawless, so that people can't even bear to touch or trample on it.

It seems that it is a sin to even make a loud noise to destroy this dead and desolate, strangely poignant atmosphere.

Cao Tiantian raised her head, wiped her eyes, couldn't believe it, and muttered to herself: "Why does the sky fall...... Ash? ”

Liu Ruyan shook her head: "I don't know." But I guess...... Queen Yanluo's reaction is most likely related to the ash in the sky. ”

Cao Tiantian felt chills all over her body: "Even Queen Yanluo is so afraid that she knelt down on the spot, shouldn't this be like the one described in the movie, this is a sign before the destruction of the world?" ”

"Hehe, what does the destruction of this world have to do with us? Wouldn't it be better to escape. ”

"That's just as well."

The two of them quickly calmed down.

Suddenly.

Right now.

Boom –

There was a loud bang.

On the teaching building, a loud explosion was suddenly heard.

An astonishing wave of qi raged and erupted from all the passages of the entire teaching building.

When the air wave reached the playground, all the ash on the ground was kicked up, and the three of them were confused.

But at this time, Liu Ruyan and the three of them couldn't take care of the embarrassed gray head and gray brain, and there was a terrible temperature in that wave of qi. Even after a few rounds of tossing and turning in the passage of the teaching building, when the heat wave was on their faces, they could still clearly distinguish the terrible high temperature mixed with the air wave, like the anger of Queen Yanluo, so surging, so surging.

Cao Tiantian and Liu Ruyan coincidentally made up for Queen Yanluo's undulating mountains, like giants and anger.

Cao Tiantian: "It's her!! ”

Liu Ruyan: "It's her ......"

When Queen Yanluo went crazy again.

In front of the two of them, [Multiple Choice] and [Narration] reappear.

Liu Ruyan and Cao Tiantian's faces changed slightly, but after they were a little surprised, they carefully observed the options, did not communicate verbally, and quickly made their respective "choices".

After making their choice, the two of them actually entered pathfinding mode and walked in two directions.

In the same place, only Oda Mai remained, with a sword hanging from his waist, standing proudly on the dusty earth.

After Liu Ruyan and Cao Tiantian left, the gray ...... fluttered in the sky Stopped.

If it weren't for the ashes left everywhere, it might be hard to believe that there were once ashes as pure as snow fluttering in the sky under this sky.

……

……

And about ten minutes ago.

Styx Junior High School office building.

Office of the Vice Chancellor.

Or the secretary's office.

- It's all the same anyway.

Irin happily solves the "Mystery of the Vice Principal's Cheating Room" and arrives at the Secret Room.

He turned the vice-principal's office upside down, but he didn't find any special props or mechanisms.

So I had no choice but to give up.

Back in the chamber, Irin landed on a blindfolded mirror.

Although Irin didn't see the mirror, this shape ...... There should be no other possibility than being a mirror.

"Heh, it can't be a portal, right? Or maybe it's some kind of magic mirror or something? ”

"Once you are reflected in the mirror, you ascend to heaven on the spot?"

"Or is it the unfolding of the world that is sucked into the mirror?"

Irin smiled, and a lot of possibilities flashed through his mind.

After all, this is Styx Junior High School.

Even the weird school where "magic" exists without contradiction,Isn't it reasonable to have a mirror with strange powers?

Although Irin's face was smiling, he was putting his vigilance to the maximum.

Why hasn't I seen a single mirror in the entire Styx junior high school?

But through the secret room of the vice principal and the secretary, there is a piece hidden?

If Irin guessed correctly, this mirror covered in black cloth is very likely to be the only "mirror" in this world.

Irin carefully lifted the corner of the black cloth, but didn't lift it completely, and reached into it and touched it quietly.

Feel...... Nothing special.

But the attributes of the "mirror" appeared in front of me in an instant.

……

【Ordinary full-length mirror】

【Grade】Rough

[Durable] 22

【Effect】Extremely fragile.

[Description] This is the treasure full-length mirror that the "upper level fraud demon Mundy" got through a special channel, he likes it very much, and every time he uses it with the secretary, he will carefully wipe it so as not to get any dirt.

……

Rough grade?

That is...... Is it really just a regular full-length mirror?

Irin looked down in thought.

In terms of mirror attributes, the explanation of the words also made Yi Rin feel more and more wrong.

Superior fraudster?

Irin's eyes flickered slightly.

And the effect column is also extremely weird.

[Extremely fragile] can also be counted as an effect?

Ordinary mirrors, but there are unusual explanations, no matter who will find it weird.

But at this point, it seems a little unreasonable to completely ignore this only mirror in Styx Junior High School and turn away.

After thinking about it, Irin suddenly smiled, and then silently pulled out the knife.

After pulling out the knife, Irin's black cloth was completely lifted from the mirror.

The mirror finish is as smooth as new.

And in the mirror, a "demon" with a blue face and fangs and wings on his back is "looking" at Irin with a confused face!

Irin: "......"

Irin was expressionless, did not hesitate, and immediately raised the knife in his hand and stabbed the "demon" in the mirror.

But at the same time, the blue-faced, fanged, winged "demon" in the mirror stabbed at Irin with the same movement and the same speed, with the dark red short knife in his hand.

Through an ordinary mirror, Irin and a "demon" stabbed each other with real knives and guns, like fencing in the air, which was very exciting.

But.

When the tip of Blood Jasmine's knife was less than an inch away from the mirror, Irin suddenly woke up, and his back was slightly cold.

The "demon" in the mirror stabbed the knife at Irin and froze on the other side of the mirror, and the tip of the knife inside and outside the mirror, through the mirror, was like a world away, in a-for-tat.

Irin reacted, his pupils shrinking suddenly.

So that's what happened!

The "demon" in the mirror is not someone else, nor is it a monster with a blood bar that can be cut, but ...... He.

It's Irin in the mirror.

The ordinary mirror in front of him is like a demon mirror, reflecting Irin's truest posture.

"That's what it is...... Authentic? ”

Irin quickly put away his knife.

He twisted his waist, stretched his arms, and almost made a complete set of broadcast gymnastics-style ancient martial arts techniques.

Irin did it anyway.

It's not bad at all.

The strange shape of "he" in the mirror also made a round with the same action.

"Sure enough...... Is this how it happened? ”

Irin, at last, was convinced of what kind of existence they were in this trial world.

Originally, at the beginning of the trial, Yi Rin had deduced that they came to this world in a state of "time regression" through the rudiments of their facial features and the [resentment] attached to the door of their heads.

But it's not.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this approach doesn't make much sense.

Cao Tiantian, Han Han, and Liu Ruyan's ages in reality, Yi Rin is not clear, so I won't mention it for the time being.

But Irin, Oda Mai, is only in their early eighteen, and they are still pink. Although it is a little difficult to make a cameo appearance as a junior high school student, it looks a little precocious at best, and it is not exaggerated to the point of disobedience of an uncle with a beard on his face to pretend to be a middle school student.

That's why Irin's feeling that this "cuteness" doesn't make much sense.

And now, when Irin's eyes see "him" in the mirror, he can be regarded as completely affirming this matter.

It turns out that they did not come in their own form at all.

If Irin guessed correctly, their current bodies were similar to Saya's birth methods, created by a certain being, and then entered this Styx junior high school through the method of "transfer students".

That's why Irin and the others will grow a weird sarcoma on their backs without knowing it.

And that's why, the moment they appeared, they were already standing on the podium of the second class of the third year, completely omitting the steps when they entered the inner world with their ontology.

"Most likely, this body is something like a 'replica of the body.'"

"Somehow, 'it' quietly replaces all our 'data'."

"It's not hard to do this kind of thing at all, after all, every time we return, we can return to the 'original' state by consuming death points."

"It's like that before we enter the trial, we will go through a 'data backup' process, so when we return, whether it is missing arms or legs, any injury, even if only half of the body is left, can be easily restored with points."

"So in fact, 'we' can also use the magic of this world? Similar to the power of Queen Yanluo? Just didn't find the way? ”

"So can this kind of reinforcement be brought back to the real world through learning and exercise, and become an ability to master independently?"

Irin thought of many possibilities, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.

But.

Irin frowned again.

This still doesn't fully explain why there are no mirrors in Styx Junior High School other than here.

Just to keep the students from discovering their ugliness?

Not really, right?

Maybe there are other more connotative reasons?

Irin always felt that something was wrong.

But I couldn't figure it out for a while.

So he pondered it even more seriously.

And Irin's unnoticed that while he was pondering the disobedience of the "mirror", a black dot appeared out of thin air in the center of the mirror.

A black dot that is pure to the extreme, like a black hole in the mirror, absorbs all the red erotic lights in the secret room.

The black dot, from one dot, gradually expanded, into a lump of ...... A...... A small piece.

When Irin's back to his senses, he found that the "self" in the mirror seemed to be stained by a large thick ink blot, and the image in the mirror, from the neck down to the navel, had been completely covered in black ink, and it was impossible to see the original appearance.

This strange scene seems to be a harbinger...... Something is coming.

The strange changes are sudden and unexpected. At this juncture, Irin's knife could only be pulled out again and moistened his throat, no matter what monster was about to run out of the mirror, he could be prepared to make a [Calamity-haunted] and talk about it with a face.

Unbeknownst to Irin, it was when the mirror surface underwent a strange change.

Between this piece of heaven and earth,Flying ash all over the sky,Pale as snow,Delicate as sand,Quietly cover the entire school park,There is no corner left。

What Irin didn't know was that at this moment when the sky was full of ashes, all the creatures in the academy, except for their apostles, all looked at the sky in unison, kneeling on the ground, trembling.

Irin is unaware of what is happening in the outside world.

But even if he knew, he wouldn't have time to care about it at the moment.

Because of the mirror in front of him, the darkness completely spread, and the mirror surface was completely submerged, completely dyed into a strange black.

All light, all reality, cannot leave images and traces on the inky black mirror.

Irin suddenly felt that this dark color was a little familiar.

Some are like the dark curtain that hangs over Styx Junior High School at night.

But it's not like that.

Irin tensed up, clenched the knife in his hand, stared at the abyss in the mirror, and didn't dare to come out.

It's as if exhaling a breath forcefully will disturb some kind of terrible existence.

Yi Rin knew in his heart that the situation in front of him was beyond his expectations, out of his control, beyond the ordinary, and very bad.

He should have fled.

Or to stop it.

No matter how bad you are, you can't stare into the abyss in the mirror.

Because...... It's unlucky.

It's like some kind of pre-death flag.

But for some reason, Irin's mind felt that in the face of that darkness, Irin's breathing and thinking had become extremely laborious, and his mind was blank, leaving only a blank chaos.

Wait a minute?

Why blank?

Blankness and darkness are clearly difficult to associate together.

The ordinary mirror in front of you seems to have become an abyss, or a passage connecting the abyss, as if you can reach another world as long as you cross this mirror.

Suddenly.

A hand, emerging from the abyss.

It was a pale palm.

From the inky black mirror, a pale palm suddenly appeared.

Black and white, like a painting.

Irin's thoughts, which seemed to be frozen in darkness, came alive the moment the palm appeared.

Pale, withered, desolate, dead, marginal, earth, sky, dominant......

When Irin saw the palm of the hand slowly stretching out from the other side of the mirror towards "this side", Irin couldn't help but think of a series of incoherent words.

Those words didn't make any sense, and Irin's couldn't figure out why, but when he saw the palm, one after another meaningless words flashed through his mind.

When Irin's time to ponder it, she quickly forgot what the last flashed word was, leaving only a blank thought.

That palm is inconceivable, unrecallable, unsearchable, indescribable, inexplicable.

The dark mirror seemed to connect two worlds.

The world in which Irin lives.

and the world in the palm of that hand.

The palms are getting bigger.

Bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, Irin's face changed drastically.

A finger, silent, penetrated the barrier of time and space, penetrated the mirror, and from the "other side", penetrated through.

That finger...... The size is extremely large.

The pale fingers, which were slightly sharp, but looked like well-trimmed black nails, were a little bigger than Irin's face.

That's not a human hand!

Oh, of course it can't be human...... To be precise, it's not a palm that should exist on a normal human body!

At the moment when the huge finger squeezed out the mirror slightly.

The pitch-black mirrored surface, with the fingers as the center, ripples in circles.

The ripples swept to the edge of the mirror, turning into a terrifying twist, and the walls behind the mirror suddenly twisted into various strange shapes, like whirlpools in the deep sea.

With that terrifying twist and shock, the whole mirror made a clicking sound, as if it was overwhelmed, as if it would be crushed by that terrible finger at any moment.

No!

Irin suddenly came to his senses.

Never let that finger go all the way out!

This mirror is categorically impossible to accommodate the palm of the hand that completely sticks out from the strange world behind the mirror, but just a piece of pitch-black nail is just the first to show it, and it already makes Irin feel the pressure of death, if the whole finger is stretched out...... The consequences will be unimaginable!

When Yi Rin came back to his senses, a chill ran down his back, and drops of sweat dripped down his hair, Yi Rin did not hesitate, and frantically urged Blood Jasmine, blessed with Nie Hong's "form change", with Yi Rin as the center, countless blood-stranded like hair, strangled towards the "mirror".

He didn't do this to repel the finger, nor to trim the finger, nor did he naively think that he could cut off the half of the finger with this meager strength.

Irin's purpose...... Very simple!

Whoa—

Countless blood threads shrouded it, and in the blink of an eye, the ordinary and ordinary mirror was wrapped in the blood of blood jasmine, shaped like a blood cocoon.

Irin urged countless blood threads regardless of consumption, strangling, strangling, and strangling within the blood cocoon.

Finally.

The bloodshot retreated like a tidal wave, and reverted to the shape of a short knife in Irin's hands.

After the strangulation, only a large thin shard of glass was left on the ground, and there were no more strange inky shadows on it.

That finger...... Retreat!

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Irin sat on the ground with his ass on his shoulder, gasping for breath, his expression solemn, and he was speechless for a long time.
