Teacher Zhang’s sudden thunderous voice immediately woke up the sleeping Liu Xiyu. She practically jumped out of her chair from the surprise.

She became extremely nervous being caught red-handedly sleeping in class.

Liu Xiyu didn’t exactly hear Teacher Zhang’s question, so she could only lay her head low, flushing red across her entire face.

Seeing her dawdling and not answering, Teacher Zhang repeated once again, “Tell me, how many people have died in this classroom?”

‘This… I don’t know!’

Liu Xiyu was brazenly not listening to the lecture and was even sleeping through it midway. Hence, she was stupefied by Teacher Zhang’s question.

Recalling what had happened to the faceless man before, Liu Xiyu was a little scared and didn’t want to risk it by voluntarily saying a wrong answer.

Even if this were a dream, she was also afraid that she would suffer the same fate as those countless faceless people before, dying inexplicably.

Without getting another prompt, Liu Xiyu opened and closed her mouth, unsurely probing, “En… Teacher, it must be eight or nine people?”

“Eight or nine people? Is it eight or is it nine?” Teacher Zhang’s mouth began to pull down, saying in dissatisfaction, “This question still has two answers? In the end, is it eight or nine!”

Hearing the two people’s dialogue, all of the players present had their complexions immediately change!

Earlier, the maximum number of legs was only 9, and taking into consideration what had happened before the sea of blood, it only increased by 2. This classroom had a total of 11 legs.

Dividing the total, it should be 6 people.

But, regardless if it were 8 or 9, it had already exceeded the final answer by a lot.

If only the unlucky ghost, who was dragged out of the classroom, wasn’t accounted for. But, this still meant 7 people had died. Liu Xiyu’s answer still went over by 1. Only if there were players with disabilities that had died before them, Liu Xiyu’s answer would have met the requirements.

The players were truly terrified of this answer, even more than when Teacher Zhang asked Liu Xiyu a question.

She panicked while choosing between the two and said, “It should be 8…”

“En?” Teacher Zhang’s tone sunk.

“9! It’s 9!” The threatened Liu Xiyu immediately changed her answer in a swirl of panic.

Sure enough, upon hearing this answer, Teacher Zhang’s mouth split open from satisfaction.

He exposed a mouth full of sawtooth-shaped teeth and humbly nodded his head, saying, “Correct! Deserving to be called the student I’m most proud of! You answered correctly!”

“Liu Xiyu, sit down!”

As Teacher Zhang’s voice fell inside the classroom, Liu Xiyu hastily took her seat, using her small hand to soothe her palpitating chest and taking in small breaths as if celebrating her narrow escape.

However, as Liu Xiyu relaxed, the player’s expression turned graver.

Unexpectedly, she answered correctly. Could it be that there were people with disabilities who had died before?

How great must they have been to survive through six levels while being handicapped?

Ye Shangyu’s face gradually lost its color, while her forehead oozed out droplets of cold sweat. This wasn’t merely caused by the painful chalk, it was more of what she realized would happen the next few moments.

Not only was it Ye Shangyu, but Bai Yan quickly fixed his attention onto Teacher Zhang’s bloody mouth, which was wide opened like a sacrificial bowl, his face also began to look unsightly.

Teacher Zhang’s evil smile couldn’t conceal his happiness. This old ghost was ecstatic, and it didn’t mean anything good for them.

Not making the players feel apprehensive for too long, Teacher Zhang’s face stopped smiling, completely vanishing from his expression. But, his sawtooth-shaped teeth could still be seen, making him look horrifying.

His triangular and viper-like eyes right below his nose swayed from side to side. The hearts of the players he was staring at beat like deafening drums. They couldn’t help but clench their fists, awaiting what was about to happen next.

Teacher Zhang’s gaze, full of ill intent, hovered over each person’s body for a few long seconds. In the end, he finally settled on a decision and stretched out both hands, as if he were stretching pieces of rubber——

His hands were getting more and more akin to sharp hooks, suddenly piercing the black-shirt man’s and the middle-aged woman’s throats out of nowhere.

Before these two players could react to what was going on, their eyes had already rolled over until they turned completely white as he dragged the fresh corpses onto the platform.

After that, Teacher Zhang grabbed the two’s heads and banged them into the board. To all of their surprise, they were stuffed into the blackboard!

The two people’s corpses melted seamlessly into the flat board, and soon, the blackboard grew two simple drawings shaped like distorted people.

The two people’s drawings were outlined by red chalk, and their limbs were drawn crookedly, only retaining their most striking features.

But, what made people feel truly unpleasant was that there were crying faces in those drawings, and there seemed to be a few tears below their eyes, looking quite bizarre.

Looking at the simple drawings of the man and woman, Teacher Zhang gave a horizontal smile, his saw-like teeth coming into full view as he cackled, “Correct! There are 9 people, that’s just right!”

“This…!”

All of the surviving players turned rigid as though everyone was thrown into an icy cave.

They’ve already known for a long time that the hard levels were terrible and that it would be more horrible than the normal levels. But, seeing the dark-shirt man and the middle-aged woman die from no rhyme nor reason, it also couldn’t be helped that despair sneakily crept into their hearts’ view.

The dark-shirt man and the middle-aged woman also did nothing wrong. The dark-shirt man even solved a problem correctly earlier.

Yet, due to an NPC answering a question wrong, of her answering more than two people, they died unjustly. Before, it was they, the players, who would willfully exploit the NPCs. But now, how could they imagine that their lives were connected to an NPC’s mouth!

Suddenly, the players’ intense gazes all concentrated on Liu Xiyu.

They glared at her, their eyes full of resentment, much like the unlucky player who was punished to stand outside, hating the fact that they couldn’t tear Liu Xiyu’s life apart right now.

They understood that this wasn’t her fault, but still, it was totally out of their control. They were scared. They were really scared!

Sometimes, there was no way on earth to survive the game!

Even if you had foresight and wisdom but no luck, you’ll still be sentenced to death!

Being stared at by the players with mixes of fear and ire in their eyes, Liu Xiyu instinctively shrunk back her head, feeling a bit frightened by the strangers’ looks.

From all directions, several faceless people turned their heads away as they wordlessly looked at themselves, while several bald heads turned their faces to each other. They were as terrifying as the ghosts in the game.

Regarding the deaths of the two faceless people just now, Liu Xiyu, contrary to what one might expect, didn’t feel any guilt or remorse for them, because during the previous dreams, many more faceless people had also died.

From her perception, the faceless people were the video game’s NPCs. It was her that had fabricated these little soldiers that were designed for her to use to venture onto the right path.

What’s more, although this was an overly realistic dream, the objects in her dreams were all fake. These people didn’t have faces. Maybe they were the same kind of trash that ghosts from haunted houses were. So, why should she feel the least bit of guilt about them?

She wasn’t like the other girls in class who would immediately grieve from some people dying.

Liu Xiyu still lowered her head, muttering something indistinctively. Since the players all felt that Liu Xiyu and Teacher Zhang were like a team, not one of them risked stepping forward and doing something terrible to her.

After a moment of silence, Teacher Zhang broke the tense atmosphere.

He drew another picture again, starting to call on the players, who haven’t answered a question yet. These were new questions about the ‘lecture’ they had just learned about…

Due to their sufficient experiences, not a single person died until the end of math class.

However, this didn’t trigger the players’ faces to become fine. Up until they stepped out of the classroom, their faces were still in a dismal state.

After going through two mini-games, five people had already died, and the total of 11 players had quickly dwindled to half.

The black mist from the stairs above chased after them, and everyone just kept silent the whole way down. Liu Xiyu seemed to have felt that she wasn’t liked by these faceless players, so she just silently walked at the back.

Roughly two minutes into their journey, Bai Yan saw the new floor.

The floor’s walls used bright red paint to draw a bloody-red ‘-13.’

On the -13th floor, there were also three tightly bolted iron doors.

Bai Yan glanced at it and saw what was going to happen. Two people each would enter the three doors, and since there were six remaining players, they were divided evenly.

But, there was a group of players that would be particularly unlucky, because Liu Xiyu, the extra person, would inevitably be included in this group.

Following with their experience of the mini-game just now, no one would dare be contemptuous to this weak NPC.

If Lui Xiyu were to talk carelessly, she could use ghosts to slaughter them. But, the most important thing was, she did it unintentionally, which was undoubtedly more annoying.

It could be said that whichever group Liu Xiyu joins in, that group would increase its mortality rate.

Bai Yan wasn’t a fool. He could easily realize this, but the other players also weren’t fools.

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, all scared that Liu Xiyu would follow them without a word, so no one willingly went in first.

The players stared at each other with wide eyes and squinted eyes, getting caught up in an awkward impasse.

Seeing the black mist creeping behind them, Liu Xiyu became somewhat anxious. She also didn’t care whether the players would go in a door or not, so she took the lead and chose a door, walking right in.

Upon seeing this, the players immediately scrambled to the doors where there was no Liu Xiyu.

Bai Yan and Ye Shangyu had long prepared for this, and they rushed into an iron door. The iron door closed with a loud rumble, separating them from the slower people. A rain of curses could instantly be heard from the other players.

But, being glad was out of the question for the two. Because behind them, there was a female ghost mumbling to herself, attracting their complete attention.

“These little girls truly aren’t good. One has less common sense than the other!”

Bai Yan turned his head around and discovered that this was the female restroom.

A middle-aged woman on her tiptoes walked out of the cubicle with a bucket at hand, grumbling as she walked, “Everything’s stuffed inside. How can I clean this? If I don’t clean this well, then I’ll be lectured by those teachers again!”

The middle-aged woman said this, much like an unscrupulous businesswoman, and after seeing her miserable greenish eyes, they saw that she also had the same miserably green tongue. It was then that Bai Yan realized that this wasn’t a living person.

Upon seeing that two people were standing by the door, the middle-aged woman signaled them to walk closer. She used her eyes, which hinted that she was itching to eat some meat, to watch them closely, but she still recited her lines, handing over the bucket to Bai Yan’s hand, “Are you the new janitors? You need to work more swiftly and clean this toilet up without any delays. There’s still ten minutes left before the young girls would get out of class. If you still haven’t finished by the time their class ends, you’ll be dead!”

Finishing what she said, the female ghost licked her lips and stared at them with eyes that seemed reluctant to part, pulling open the iron door and tiptoeing out of there.

With the female ghost giving one last hesitant look, Bai Yan understood. There were two fresh and delectable pieces of meat in front of her, but she couldn’t eat them straight away. This feeling was indeed difficult to bear.

Moreover, he also comprehended the female ghost’s words. He gazed at the bucket in his hand, there was also a mop inside the bucket. Did this female ghost want them to mop the female toilet?

Bai Yan didn’t object to cleaning the female restroom. However, he shot a glance at Ye Shangyu’s still bleeding hand and felt that he had to do this task on his own.

Only ten minutes were given to them by the female ghost, so there may not be enough time for Ye Shangyu to clean with her injured hand.
