Before the game came, Tang Xinjue always thought that nightmares were just psychological cues after the brain was stimulated.

When monsters emerged from the darkness and nightmares came into reality, she temporarily regarded these three years of nightmares as some kind of prophecy, like a subtle spoiler, showing the details of dark creatures in advance.

But it wasn't until last night, when she saw the black mist in the "cave", that she realized that she had overlooked another possibility—

Nightmare, why can't it be real?

"...You mean that every day for the past three years, you didn't just have nightmares, but actually came into contact with dark creatures, fighting and escaping in the form of nightmares?"

After listening to the statement, Zhang You finally concluded this. Speaking of the last few words, her voice subconsciously became high.

How dangerous the dark creatures are, she has experienced it herself in the copy.

What's more, three years ago, with no abilities and no props, Tang Xinjue was just a student who just graduated from high school! Once lost in a nightmare... She looked at each other in disbelief.

Tang Xinjue tapped her eyes: "If I regard the dream as another form of reality, dying in the dream may not damage my body in reality, but it will Another way to kill me."

Spiritual death is also death.

…

During a night of sleepless nights, Tang Xinjue recalled a lot, and she didn't know whether to be happy or frightened.

pregnancy.

How many times did she miss death?

"Wait, I don't get it!"

Guo Guo raised her hand and inserted into the dialogue: "Jushen Jue God, let's not talk about why your dream appeared three years earlier than the game, what happened last night, what does it have to do with this incident? "

The most important thing is that Tang Xinjue and the counselor are talking about the dark atmosphere, the judgment is wrong, not like a person, etc., every word is stepping on her sensitive and fearful nerves Crazy dance.

If you don't figure it out, before the next exam starts, Guo Guo will be scared to death by her own imagination.

Under Guo Guo's earnest gaze, Tang Xinjue once again launched the scratch paper, which had been drawn horribly, only the original conical outline could be vaguely seen.

She briefly described what she saw in the "cave", and finally attributed it to her brushstrokes: "The space in the cave is a cone that infinitely shrinks above and infinitely expands below."

Human consciousness is often described as an iceberg, a small part of which rises above the water and most of it sinks to the bottom. The counselor wanted to kill her, but accidentally let her enter the bottom of his consciousness and got a glimpse of what was inside.

"And this cave is all my spiritual power - my sea of ​​consciousness."

Surface consciousness is like a hole illuminated by the light of the outside world, and where the light cannot reach, it is a deep and vast space of deep consciousness.

The dark aura that the counselor spoke of persisted in the depths in the form of black mist. When Tang Xinjue felt the touch, some of the fragmented memories began to come back—these memories were all the details of her spiritual power fleeing and fighting in countless dreams.

From the beginning, through these "nightmares", the ubiquitous darkness has eroded in.

So she can sense ghosts, use ghosts, resist mental pollution... To a certain extent, her existence itself is already approaching the other side of the game, no wonder she will Encountered so many "special treatment".

"To sum up, I'm sorry to have hurt everyone."

Tang Xinjue spread her hands, "Though these things rooted in my brain, although they do not show attack and danger, they have become a climate. I can't get rid of them at present, they can only temporarily coexist. "

[Counselor's encouragement] has limited effect and is collectively referred to as treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

She is also facing this situation for the first time, and it is not clear whether there will be any changes in the future.

"Perhaps, is it possible?" Guo Guo was still assuming through gritted teeth: "Why is the erosion of the dark aura not serious, the counselor is just intimidating you? Look, Wanqing and Zhang Youtian are me. When I'm with you, I don't feel it..."

Halfway through, Guo Guo couldn't make it up herself.

Things that even Tang Xinjue confirmed have been concluded.

The bedroom was silent for a while, half of which was digesting this matter, and the other half was sweating for Tang Xinjue.

"No wonder that Li Xiaoyu, when he saw you, he said that you were suitable for the same kind." Zheng Wanqing reacted with hindsight, she was so close to the spoiler, "Is it also See it?"

"That's another question."

Tang Xinjue took out another piece of paper with heavy handwriting and pasted it on the previous mind map.

Another problem is the hierarchy of ghosts.

Taking all the student ghosts that have appeared in the game as an example, Tang Xinjue briefly explained her speculation on the level of ghosts: they should be distinguished by three universities.

The three most common university ghosts should be such as Little Red and Little Green, and Jin Wen next door in the headless ghost movie. Human freshmen can also try to fight with the help of props, and the danger is not high .

The most dangerous is a university ghost, such as Wu Shi who can break into their exams, Li Xiaoyu who deducts their rewards from the copy, and even have the ability to violate the rules-even like Like the black fog, it left a mark in Tang Xinjue's sea of ​​knowledge.

The three roommates looked at the four bizarre patterns on the paper.

Zhang You's brows twisted into a rope: "You can count Wu Shi and Li Xiaoyu, there are only two ghosts, you have four marks..."

The ghost painting talisman is incomprehensible, they looked at Tang Xinjue, but Tang Xinjue nodded in satisfaction: "My painting skills have improved a lot, these four things are clear at a glance, I Not to mention you should be able to see it."

Everyone: "???"

Under the strong request, Tang Xinjue, who wanted to skip the time in a hurry, had to touch her nose and explain angrily:

"The first mark is a glass bottle, which is a clue on Li Xiaoyu's seat in the copy of the movie, and there is the exact same red sand inside..."

glass bottle, silver ring, yellow eyeball, white tape.

Tang Xinjue can only distinguish three attributions of each distinctive marker.

The glass bottle and the ring probably belong to Li Xiaoyu and Wu Shi respectively. The yellow eyeball is more like a split version of the huge yellow eyeball that appeared outside the bedroom window on the night of the game. As for the white tape, Tang Xinjue couldn't find a suitable candidate, so she could only put it on hold for the time being.

After a night of trying, she found that she only wanted to return to the state of immersed consciousness, and she could not exceed five minutes in a day, so the information she could get was very limited, so she could only hurry up and record it down.

Then, looking at the 15 pages of note paper on the table, everyone fell silent.

Tang Xinjue's frenzy finally subsided, and calmly said: "Danger and opportunity are accompanied by, since I have been marked, then whether it is a blessing or a disaster, I should be prepared to deal with it. responsible to everyone."

... I don't know why, Tang Xinjue is always calm as a clock when the situation is dangerous, but at the moment she is so excited, everyone feels a little dangerous.

The next minute, they knew where this bad premonition came from.

Tang Xinjue divided the notes into three parts and said lightly: "There is still an hour before the start of today's exam, everyone take forty minutes and memorize the details of the classification of dark creatures on these fifteen sheets of paper. Well. When the exam is over today, I'll finish the rest of the details."

Three: "…"

Guo Guo swallowed her saliva: "Well, Jue God, you don't need to be too stressed. We'll take the test normally when we don't know about this. Otherwise, let's take it slow..."

"Memorize it."

"Okay."

The three who hadn't slept much began to frantically browse and recite the manuscript content, but the more they looked down, the more frightened they became.

Low-level nightmares that imitate voices, gluttons that imitate appearances, transparent ghosts that absorb souls, long-tongued ghosts that devour human heads, phantoms that travel through space... In addition to the types of monsters that have been encountered, There are also some that they haven't encountered yet, such as skinless monsters, shadow monsters, millipedes, air monsters...

"Wait, what is an air monster?"

Guo Guo widened her eyes.

Tang Xinjue: "As the name suggests, I haven't seen the specific image of such monsters, and I can't kill them. They seem to be able to survive and move with the help of air, and their attack method is to inhale at you. "

"Breathing on me?"

"Yes, then you will find that the air within a few dozen meters of yourself is gone."

Tang Xinjue indicated that there are relevant records in the notes:

[If there are only a few air monsters nearby, hold your breath and escape from the area to survive immediately. If there are dozens or hundreds of them, wait to die. ]

“…”

Arrival at eight o'clock, the three of them only had time to read the contents of the notes, and they could only hurriedly stuff them into the storage ring, and read them after entering the exam.

"Ding dong dong, dong dong ding—"

"Happy Friday, it's class time, the exam papers have been distributed, everyone is ready~"

The exam interface refreshes:

Volume A: Investment and Financial Management (Level B)

Volume B: Hygiene Raids (Level C)

Volume C: "Research on Virus and Parasitic Technology" (Level C)

In the original option interface, the difficulty level has also appeared due to the addition of the [Counselor's Encouragement] buff.

"B-level difficulty must be excluded first, as for volumes B and C..." Guo Guo scratched her head.

Zhang You: "Volume C is a professional question, which is more beneficial to medical students. Volume B doesn't seem to be targeted, but this exam may be more difficult."

Experience tells them that the lower the threshold for the exam questions, the more abnormal the exam content may be.

Tang Xinjue doesn't think so: "Not necessarily, cleaning also needs a threshold. Just perfecting the cleaning is an unattainable technical job for many people. "

Speaking of this, three pairs of eyes fell on Zhang You.

Not to mention, they also have a logistics god.

Zhang You, who had high hopes: "...Then choose Volume B. Is there anything I need to buy temporarily in the mall?"

Tang Xinjue exchanged the last points for her achievements, exchanged a few bottles of cleaning supplies, upgraded her appraisal skills, and nodded, "Let's go."

"Right," she suddenly remembered before her consciousness entered the darkness: "I owe you the spicy chicken feet mixed with yogurt last time... Next time definitely!"

Everyone: Not necessarily.

"Boom bang bang!"

"Get up quickly! A bunch of slackers! Immediately check the hygiene! Those who fail will be recorded as major demerits and dropped out of school!"

The sound of the door slamming loudly rang in his ears, Tang Xinjue opened his eyes suddenly, and found himself lying on a hard and cramped bed.

Looking around, this is not the bed in the bedroom she is familiar with, but a room that is many times bigger.

After a few seconds, the sound of gasping, whispering, and lifting the quilt spread rapidly in the room.

Tang Xinjue stood up silently, taking advantage of the height of the bunk on the second floor, to see the faces of young girls who were surprised and panicked, or serious and dignified.

This gray room is a dormitory for 16 people!
