Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

It seems that the sounds they created, directly or indirectly, still exist.

"It's still not broken? This prop is pretty good."

After regaining his footing, Fan Xiao reached out and tapped the pale yellow protective shield, his expression somewhat wistful.

"Is this the time to be surprised?" Guan Yao stood up, clutching her head. "We were surrounded! If it weren't for the amber's ability to absorb impact, we wouldn't have fared well from that attack."

Perhaps because of the increased distance, the strange smell from before had lessened its effect on Guan Yao.

She regained some consciousness, and at least the "mating urge" was no longer so strong.

"There must be three monsters watching us."

Fan Xiao guessed, "One is that powerful, shadowy monster, and the other is the slender monster we saw. The scent it emits can interfere with the player's mind."

"Besides that, there should be another monster that can eliminate sound... no, it could also be one that controls sound."

"It concealed the movements of the shadowy monster and the slender monster, allowing both to hide and launch a sneak attack on us."

"You mean...this was an organized siege?" Guan Yao asked in surprise. "They actually have reason?"

"No one says monsters can't have reason."

Fan Xiao said, "Don't forget that about two years ago, in the villa in the surface world, a group of people who participated in the party went to hell because of the curse game."

"They might not necessarily die after going to hell, it's possible..."

He looked ahead: "They've all turned into monsters."

Without a sound, the tall, dark figure and the slender monster had caught up with them.

The slender monster continued to stare at Fan Xiao, uttering a longing murmur: "Handsome...hehe...handsome..."

It's unknown how much it longed for handsome men and carnal desires during its lifetime.

Amidst the shouts, a strange odor quickly filled the classroom through the broken wall.

Guan Yao's consciousness blurred again, but the urge to rush towards the slender monster grew stronger.

The hard and sturdy amber protective cover did not block the odor.

However, this time, the tall, shadowy monster did not seize the opportunity to launch a second attack.

It held a thick chain in its hand, the other end of which was a huge metal hammer covered with spikes.

The chains were now taut, and the creature was ready for battle, waiting for the perfect moment to strike with lightning speed.

This moment must have been when Guan Yao couldn't resist the allure of the scent, took the initiative to remove her protective shield, and pounced on the slender, dark figure.

"These monsters do have reason, but they don't seem to be completely rational?"

"Even the foolish strategy of making noise to lure the monster away worked before. At least at that time, this large shadowy monster didn't have any intelligence."

"They have reason, but they can't maintain it forever?"

As Fan Xiao made his guess, he glanced at the time on the player's panel.

Half past three in the afternoon.

This time doesn't match the color of the sky outside.

However, this is "hell" after all, so the strange weather is tolerable.

"3:30...that's usually when school lets out."

"Do these monsters regain their sanity after school?"

Fan Xiao quickly deduced a conclusion.

At this moment, Guan Yao's face turned even paler.

She can't hold on much longer.

The probing is over; it's his turn to make a move.

"mirror."

With a soft murmur, Fan Xiao's figure vanished from the amber shield and reappeared behind the slender monster in the next instant.

"Master tailor".

Fan Xiao activated the second item, instantly connecting with the slender monster.

But he quickly frowned... He didn't sense any controllable blood from the slender monster's body.

What he felt was necrotic, congealed, and uncontrollable blood clots.

"These are... the characteristics of a dead person."

"Is this monster a moving corpse?"

Fan Xiao attempts to activate the second function of "Master Tailor"—to take away half of the target's health.

It failed as well.

This monster is beyond dead, completely unhealthy, and its overall condition is negative.

Hell is truly bizarre!

He immediately severed the connection with the slender monster and aimed "Master Tailor" at the tall, shadowy monster.

The second connection was successful.

In less than two seconds, he figured out the situation of the shadowy monster.

Like the slender monster, it was also a moving corpse.

Presumably, the hidden monster that can control sound is the same.

At this moment, both the slender monster and the shadowy monster realized what was happening.

The slender monster's arms, like two agile snakes, coiled towards Fan Xiao's body.

The shadowy monster pulled and swung the chains, causing the spiked metal hammer to smash towards Fan Xiao from the side.

At the same time, the hidden monster that could only control sound finally revealed itself.

From a hole in the classroom wall, a monster emerged that was similar in size to a human and didn't look so bizarre.

But it's only that they're not unusual in terms of body shape.

Its body was covered with hideous mouthparts, densely packed, constantly opening and closing, looking both ugly and disgusting, giving people a strong sense of unease.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

All the open mouthparts emitted a scream at the same time.

The air was compressed by the sound waves, forming a violent shockwave that blasted towards Fan Xiao from the opposite direction of the shadowy monster.

Suddenly, Fan Xiao was attacked from three sides.

The sound waves emitted by the monster's roar seemed to carry a special control effect.

Fan Xiao felt stiffness in his body and was unable to react immediately to avoid the situation.

Fortunately, very few players rely solely on evolution rate to fight.

Before the three-way attack closed in, a tiny mirror made of mental energy appeared beside Fan Xiao.

When using the item, you only need to call out the name once in a short period of time.

Without making a sound, Fan Xiao completed the preparations for teleportation.

Just as the three attacks were about to converge on him, his body entered the mirror space and was transferred out from the mirror formed by the spiritual energy on the other side.

The next second, the three attacks collided.

No sound came out.

Only the churning air currents blew the nearest, slender monster away.

"Is this your ability...? Each one is different, it's quite interesting."

Fan Xiao appeared at the podium in the classroom.

Looking at the three monsters, he smiled and said, "Since you have reason, how about we talk? I can overlook your sneak attack."

No monster responded to him.

The shadowy monster swung its hammer again.

The slender monster kept muttering "handsome guy" and "hehe".

The monster, covered in hideous mandibles, opened those mandibles a second time, preparing to unleash a second wave of sonic attacks.

"The Lost Country".

Fan Xiao has made his move.

By consuming mental energy, a realm of oblivion was created, enveloping the entire classroom.

The three monsters instantly forgot their intention to attack, forgot what abilities they possessed, and fell into a state of confusion, wondering "Who am I, where did I come from, and where am I going?"

Seizing the opportunity, Fan Xiao manipulated the blood blade that had been condensed behind him to fly out and split into forty-eight smaller blood blades.

This number is the limit of what he can control simultaneously while being distracted.

Adding more would affect combat effectiveness and is pointless.

He sent one of the small blood-stained blades flying.

Whoosh—the blood blade pierced through the air in an instant and appeared in front of the slender monster.

Then...

Boom!

A violent burst of crimson flames erupted.

Like a bomb exploding, the slender monster was blasted away, its body engulfed by crimson flames and charred under the intense heat.

It finally stopped shouting "handsome guy" and "hehe" and let out a shrill scream.

Whoosh, whoosh...—Five or six more blood-red blades were fired at the slender monster in quick succession.

Five or six booming sounds rang out simultaneously, instantly blasting the slender monster to pieces.

At this moment, the shadowy monster and the mouth-shaped monster emerged from their temporary state of amnesia.

However, it was too late; they couldn't rescue the slender monster in time.

Fan Xiao changed his attack direction, becoming a mobile artillery platform like a mage wielding fireballs.

He teleported to change his location while simultaneously firing blood blades and seizing the right moment to unleash emotional magic.

After a series of attacks, the mouth-shaped monster was blasted to pieces, and the scattered fragments were burned into charcoal and black ash.

The shadowy monster, however, possessed extremely strong defenses. After a round of bombardment, although it was missing an arm, its aggressiveness remained undiminished.

On the other side, after the slender monster was blown to pieces, Guan Yao was no longer affected by the mental interference from the smell.

Once she regained her senses, she immediately put away her defensive items and lifted the restriction that prevented her from moving.

Then she raised her hands, holding eight makeup tools between her fingers.

"The mind arises from the external world!"

Guan Yao murmured and activated the prop.

Her hands were waving in the air, as if she were drawing in the air.

Suddenly, many colors appeared on the dark face of the shadowy monster.

The colors constantly embellished its appearance, making it seem... a little better looking.

Because of its good looks, it became extremely narcissistic, arrogant, and conceited.

It quickly adopted an exaggerated stance, raising its head high, nostrils pointing to the sky, as if it were so proud it could fly away.

This is the effect of "the mind arises from the body".

Making a target beautiful can inflate their ego, making them want to show off and flaunt their beauty... This can be considered a form of indirect control.

If you use makeup to make your target look ugly, you can use their inferiority complex to defeat them, making them too ashamed to stay any longer and causing them to flee the scene.

This is a C-grade item.

Fan Xiao seized the opportunity created by Guan Yao and fired all the remaining blood blades in one go.
