Warning! The evil god's minions are invading the eerie dungeon.

"What...can you think of it on the bright side?"

Qi Xie scratched his head, and after a long pause, finally managed to utter a sentence:

"At least your life is over! No need to worry anymore, right? Hahahaha..."

Upon hearing this, the air in the entire room seemed to freeze for a moment.

The student ghost slowly raised his face, which was covered in blood and tears, and looked at Qi Xie with an expression that said, "You fucking thank me."

"I'll remain silent."

Qi Xie shrugged.

"It's ruined... completely ruined... I'm dead, I can't take the college entrance exam, everything is over."

The student ghost pressed his head down with his only remaining hand, so hard that he didn't even realize his thumb had poked into his temple.

He broke down and cried out:

"I only sleep five or six hours a day, and my mind is always on problems while eating and sleeping. I even take my error notebook to the bathroom. I've finally made it this far, how can I die now? What will happen to my parents... They have so many expectations for me..."

Qi Xie stood to the side, feeling unsure whether to strike or not, and scratched his face.

"Well, I actually understand you pretty well... How about we go somewhere else and talk about the pain of your family of origin, and then I'll send you to the stomach of an evil god to relax for a bit?"

"You say you understand me? What do you understand! You have no idea how hard my parents work, or how much they expect from me!"

The student ghost suddenly stood up, and the black mist behind him suddenly surged! A dangerous level of pressure erupted without reservation!

Bloodstained papers slowly emerged from the black mist.

Qi Xie then realized that the papers were actually exam papers, covering every subject from English to physics, while the bloodstains were incomplete bloody handprints, revealing an aura of despair.

"Um?"

Upon seeing the blood-stained exam paper, Qi Xie was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses again, he found that the scene in front of him had suddenly changed.

I am no longer in the Fengyuan Hotel.

He seemed to be sitting in a classroom, with a desk in front of him. He was the only person in the classroom, with just a chair, a desk, and...

Qi Xie turned his head and looked around, his expression twitching slightly.

"Is this the hallucination that student ghost caused to put people to sleep?"

Around him were mountains of test papers, from "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation" to "Hengshui Golden Papers," covering every subject.

At a glance, it's impossible to count them all; my intuition is that the unit of measurement can't be "ten thousand"...

Qi Xie looked down again.

A test paper and a pen appeared on the desk at some point.

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be a mock exam of the 2022 New College Entrance Examination, Volume 1, Mathematics.

Qi Xie shivered.

As if he had seen something dirty, he grabbed the exam paper, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it aside.

Even the minions of evil gods fear this inhuman creature!

He threw the test paper far away, then turned back to look at the blackboard.

There was a sentence written on the blackboard.

"After completing all the tests in the classroom, with a score of no less than 120 in the main subjects and no less than 80 in the minor subjects, you may leave."

all?

Qi Xie turned his head and looked around at the mountain of at least 100,000 sets of exam papers, and his lips twitched.

Is this the student ghost's murder rule? Can't wake up until the writing is finished?

Are all those people who are asleep doing 100,000 sets of test papers in these classrooms?

No wonder their expressions were so terrified and distorted.

Qi Xie swore this was the most terrifying killing rule he had ever seen.

Boom boom boom! ! !

Just then, Qi Xie suddenly heard a knocking sound on the window.

He glanced to the side.

Two figures appeared in the classroom window, a man and a woman, both middle-aged with slightly graying temples.

The two men, with kind smiles on their faces, looked into the classroom and slowly opened their mouths:

"Have you ever considered how much money you've cost us to grow up?"

"Our family isn't that rich."

Making money is really not easy.

"Isn't all this hard work for you?"

"No matter how tough or tiring it gets, it'll be over after these three years."

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best."

"Eat whatever you want, buy whatever you want, and just say so if you're short of money. Although money is hard to earn these days, Mom and Dad will do our best to give you the best we can."

"This is all for your own good!"

Qi Xie: ...

Wow?

Is there a second level?

Boom boom boom! ! !

The sounds outside the window continued, but Qi Xie couldn't be bothered to listen anymore.

This is someone else's obsession, not his. He needs to figure out how to leave this illusion.

Crunch!

The chair made a screeching sound as it scraped against the floor.

He suddenly stood up from his desk.

In an instant!

The temperature inside the classroom plummeted, becoming eerily cold, and the sounds outside the window instantly ceased.

The kind smiles on the faces of the two middle-aged men vanished, replaced by grim and menacing expressions as they stared intently at Qi Xie.

In an instant, the seemingly comical and humorous scene revealed a strong sense of warning.

A monster is a monster. No matter how pitiful or tragic the deceased was before, once a monster becomes a monster, its instinctive purpose is to kill.

It's possible that the other party still retains some humanity, but it's only a matter of time before they are completely corrupted by the supernatural.

"There's no way out... How can I wake myself up?"

Qi Xie ignored the warning, left his desk, and wandered around the classroom on the scattered test papers, but couldn't find a door or any other exit.

However, leaving the desk seemed to completely enrage the illusion.

The temperature in the classroom dropped again, giving everyone goosebumps.

Ignoring everything else, Qi Xie tried to activate the [Eye Ring] and take out the Blood Axe to see if he could physically clear a path.

But it was no use; he seemed unable to awaken his own sealed artifacts or skills within the illusion.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a dangerous and bizarre place.

The figure outside the window began to pound on the window with great force, his expression filled with hatred and murderous intent, and he roared at Qi Xie.

But Qi Xie just stroked his chin, ignoring it, and pondered to himself:

"This ghost's ability is to directly pull a person's soul into an illusion... but normally, an ordinary person would be affected by cognitive corruption upon entering. Otherwise, a normal person would absolutely not be disturbed emotionally by two unfamiliar middle-aged men."

"But I remained conscious... Why wasn't I affected by the strange influence?"

The answer to this question is obvious.

The corruption of evil gods.

From the moment his soul became that familiar, it was hard to say whether it still belonged to the human realm.

The dangerous and bizarre abilities are terrifying, but they pale in comparison to the corruption of an evil god.

This is also why Qi Xie is never worried about strange skills targeting the soul.

Now that we've figured out the principle...

That makes the next step easier to decide.

By finding a way to further stimulate the corruption of one's soul by the evil god, one can awaken from the illusion with the help of the evil god's power.

But how can we stimulate it?

"..."

"Oh."

"Is there even a need to think about it?"

A slightly manic smile slowly appeared on Qi Xie's face as he turned to look out the window.

Two figures outside the window were still yelling and banging on the window, their faces contorted with ferocity.

呲!

Qi Xie bit his index and middle fingers, pressed them against the blackboard, and grinned maliciously at them:

"Great Lord..."
