It is no secret that two freshmen died in the first dormitory for two consecutive nights in a row. Many old students smelled the smell of danger, and they took the task in groups of three or two and ran out. Although the freshmen were a little scared, they were more full of joy and exchanged information enthusiastically, quite like the newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, after all, it was not ordinary people who could come here.

In the auditorium of the First Research Institute, Lu Yang stood by the microphone with a smile, shaved his beard, and put on a white shawl over his black uniform, embroidered with a delicate flower, like a prince in a fairy tale.

Lin Yuan sat in the last row of the auditorium, saying that it was an auditorium, more like a small conference room, the kind of listening to lectures.

She carefully identified the patterns on Lu Yang's clothes, which were irises, a symbol of life. She remembered a painting, "Iris", painted by Vincent van Gogh in a mental hospital, which she had seen at the Paul Gates Museum of Art in California, USA, intertwined with innocent hope and lonely despair.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Chairman Lu Yang, and I am the second seat. On behalf of the First Research Institute, I would like to welcome you. In the past few days, you should have had a first acquaintance with the infected people, and you should know that we are in Noah's Ark, three thousand meters below the Pacific Ocean. ”

"This year, the institute recruited a total of 77 new students, minus the two who died in the previous two days, which is basically the same as the previous year. Such a number of people is very small compared to the number of the entire human race, but it also proves that we are the glory of human evolution. ”

The auditorium was lit up at once, and everyone exchanged their heads and talked about it.

"Lord Lu is so handsome, his golden hair shines with the brilliance of the sun." A girl sighed with her hands folded.

The girl next to her nodded vigorously and agreed: "Ah, he is like a child of the sun, Uncle Wu really didn't lie to me." ”

"Superficial, Lord Lu is the second strongest Noah in the younger generation." The boy sitting behind them said arrogantly with his head held high, his eyes full of awe and longing.

Lu Yang raised his hand to signal quiet, and the auditorium slowly quieted down before he continued.

"Most of you are second-generation, which means that your parents have had direct contact with slates. If you do not convert to the first generation, your next generation will be ordinary people. Whether you are from Paradise or from ordinary society, today's baptism ceremony may be the only opportunity in your life to come into contact with the tablets. Strength, blood, success, everything you aspire to is here! ”

The voices of the freshmen's discussion could no longer be suppressed, and the whole small hall was in an uproar.

"Alright, well, quiet! Be quiet! Really, can this year's freshmen be a little more mature? Lu Yang clapped his hands and shouted, his tone was full of intimacy, and the auditorium fell silent again.

"Converted to the first generation, you must successfully accept the infection of the virus on the slate. When I say success, I mean the possibility of failure. Now, in accordance with the Code of the First Institute, all infected people have the right to choose freely, and under normal conditions they cannot be forced. ”

Lu Yang paused for a moment to observe the reactions of the freshmen, his eyes narrowed into slits, and continued: "Those who choose to leave just walk out of the gate, there are people waiting outside, they will erase all your memories of the infected, deprive you of your abilities, and let you return to society as an ordinary person." ”

Lin Yuan turned his head and found that at some point, Yang Zishen sat quietly next to him, leaning on the back of the chair and listening attentively. He noticed Lin Yuan's gaze, stared ahead and said, "Idiot, it took so long to notice me, if I wanted to kill you, you would have died a long time ago." ”

"Oh, don't try to intimidate me anymore, I've already learned about the infected, and I'm not afraid of you."

"Cut, the guts are smaller than rabbits, what fierce. How's that, want to leave? He asked.

"Leave? Do we have a way out? I don't believe what Lu Yang said, he should be killed on the spot when he goes out. Ying He said that there are only two ways to come here, and there is no third one. ”

"You've got a good brain."

"It's not good that I'm going to die."

"Stay with Yinghe later, don't run around." He instructed, nodded slightly to Yinghe, and got up and walked out of the door.

Ying He held his head in one hand and waved at him with a smile, Lin Yuan sensed that something big was about to happen.

"You know Yang Zishen very well?" Ying He leaned over and whispered.

"Just acquaintance, he gave me the ring and the admission notice, and I haven't seen him since."

"That's it, let's go, let's go and line up, finish it early, and go back early." Ying He said it very easily, as if she was talking about where she was going to eat later.

Lin Yuan nodded, there was no trace of fear in her heart, because there was no way out.

Five students chose to leave, all of them were immature and energetic, and one of them couldn't hide his excitement, grabbed the shoulders of the person in front of him and shouted, "Haha, brother, you can finally leave this ghost place." The person who was accosted was also very happy, and the two quickly became good friends who hooked up and gave their names and contact information.

When they passed by Lin Yuan's side, Lin Yuan opened his mouth to stop them and persuade them to stay.

Yinghe grabbed her arm, shook her head at her and said, "Don't do stupid things, you can't save them." Even if they don't die now, if they are so cowardly, they will soon die on the battlefield in the future. ”

She pulled Lin Yuan up, and the two of them walked slowly to the front podium to line up, at the end of the line.

Lu Yue walked out from behind the scenes, holding a dark wooden box in her hand. He cautiously opened the box, revealing an ordinary square slab full of cracks, as if it were about to crack.

Lin Yuan stared at the stone slab in disbelief, this tattered stone that seemed to be about to rot at any time was the source of everything? She'd seen a lot of them when she climbed the Mt. Weiming, and if she needed to, she could find a lot of them for the Institute.

Lu Yang changed his smiling appearance just now, his expression was very solemn, and he stayed on the left side of the stone slab inch by inch, Lu Yue on the right, and everyone held their breath.

At the top of the list was an ordinary boy with glasses, he was very nervous, and sweat was sliding down his forehead. He stared at the slate and swallowed, his eyes shining.

"Put your hands on it, remember the feeling of the first awakening, and the tablet will guide you." Lu Yang said softly.

The boy shook his hands and put them up, his lips trembling, as if he was about to faint. He finally came into contact with the slate, and there was not a single murmur in the auditorium, and every second was so long.

"Ahh The boy screamed and pinched his hands.

His hands continued to swell, his ears, nose and eyes were bleeding, and he cried and said, "No, my sister is still waiting for me at home, ah....." His body also began to shrink and deform rapidly, and soon turned into a gray monster covered with pus.

Eventually, all the shouts were gone, and a bullet struck him in the forehead, and his body shriveled down like a balloon, and soon turned completely into black smoke and disappeared without a trace, leaving only a bloody bullet on the ground.

At this moment, a bloodstained glasses jumped to the bottom of Lin Yuan's feet. While everyone's eyes were still focused on what had just happened, she bent down to pick it up, quickly folded it and put it in her bag.

"He's dead!"

"Is this what happens to losers?"

"I'll leave too!"

......

Eight more freshmen exited the line and headed for the gate.

Lu Yang smiled and carefully wiped the muzzle of the gun with his sleeve, without stopping him in the slightest. Lu Yue stared at the stone slab, not caring at all about someone leaving.

Lin Yuan realized that the shot just now was fired by Lu Yang. At this moment, the girl standing in front of Lin Yuan attracted Lin Yuan's attention. She has long straight black hair and well-behaved bangs, she looks very quiet, and her mouth is constantly broken and babbling.

"Haha, that's miserable, garbage, you are nothing more than the pride of paradise. Liu Zizi is dead, you are also dead, and I am the only one in the third group hahaha. ”

Because she stood close, Lin Yuan could hear it very clearly, she didn't expect the quiet girl to be so terrifying in her heart, she took two steps back carelessly.

Ying He came up with headphones and whispered: "It seems that she knows all the people who died two days ago." Dad was right, the people of Paradise were either crazy or femme fatales. ”

The girl actually heard Yinghe's words, she turned her head and smiled sweetly and obediently.

Lin Yuan shuddered, and Ying He took the initiative to exchange positions with her.
