Time passed minute by minute, and the bell rang again, like a elegy for salvation, so pleasant to the ear.
At seven o'clock in the morning, everyone in the auditorium was alive.
"But, can we sleep now... Senior..."
The Valkyries' eyes were swollen and bloodshot, but they still forced themselves to keep them open.
"Ugh, I used to be able to easily get through the night, but now I feel like my head is going to explode..."
"You used to stay up late playing games and watching TV shows. We almost died yesterday, okay? It's nothing compared to that."
The Valkyries are in such a state, and the students who have not yet become Valkyries are even more tormented.
Because they had encountered human-headed ghosts and spirit tablets before, as well as all kinds of Shenzhou-style horrors that they had never seen before...
It always gives people a creepy feeling in their hearts.
Staying awake and resisting the pressure in such an environment is too exhausting and it is not easy to last a whole night.
Saori Tsuruyu stood up tremblingly, her body suddenly leaning forward, her mind a little dazed, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
They had not finished their meal, and had been in a state of mental tension all night, so when they stood up, their brains were deprived of blood and they became unconscious.
"Brother, I'll go with you to find food..."
Saori Tsuruyou walked up to Li Mo and took the initiative to speak.
Li Mo looked out the window and then at the door of the auditorium. The two dark shadows from last night had disappeared.
"You're not in a good mental state. I can't take you with me. If an emergency happens, you'll just be a burden to me."
Li Mo shook his head and refused directly without considering the other party's emotions at all.
It is relatively safe during the day, but at the same time, Li Mo also needs to verify some information, so he cannot bring an ordinary person with him as a burden.
Shigure Kirara, who was standing by, saw this scene and couldn't help but sigh.
She guessed that Li Mo would answer like this.
Ugh……
Straight men, straight men...
You are right, but this gloomy man with zero emotional intelligence has rejected the requests of a petite and cute girl three times in a row. It seems that he has become a monk.
Although emotions are not taken into consideration, purely rational decisions are the most correct ones.
"Let's go. I guess I'm the only one who can accompany you now."
Shigure Kirara stood up, grabbed the elbow of one hand with the other, and stretched.
The graceful body lines are shown, but no one appreciates them.
Because those who were sleeping were sleeping, Li Mo, who had no desire, didn't care at all.
This made the part-time idol Shigure Kirara feel like a failure. She had been cheered on by countless people at her idol performance last month, the lights on the stage were dazzling, and she, as an idol, was even more dazzling.
Li Mo glanced at Shi Yu Qiluo and paused for two seconds. He wanted to show a look of disgust, but found that it was difficult for him to even move his facial muscles, and his mind was even more confused.
Li Mo's brain rejected Li Mo's idea and did not respond.
"Indeed, there is no better choice. Just follow me." Li Mo said competently.
"Also, everyone, listen carefully. Leave two or three people on guard. If any survivors come here, do not let them in. If you absolutely have to let them in, absolutely do not let them near the black coffin, and do not let them touch anything in the auditorium. This is the bottom line, and as excellent Valkyries, you should be able to do it easily."
"Your captain and I will be back before 7pm."
After saying that, Li Mo walked towards the door. It was seven o'clock in midsummer, the sun was shining brightly, and it was bright white outside.
Shigure Qiluo pouted, requisitioned a student's backpack and quickly followed. Why did she feel like she had no choice?
"I say, do you know the geographical layout of this academy? Do you want me to be kind enough to tell you? I used to be a frequent visitor to Saint Freya." Shigure Qiluo said proudly.
"No need, I memorized the map before coming in." Li Mo answered casually.
Shigure Kirara's smile suddenly froze. This guy was even more powerful than she had imagined.
It seems like he knows all the details, but there are no Chinese men in Saint Freya, so Li Mo is just an outsider and he memorized the map at a glance?
After a while, Li Mo brought Shi Yu Qiluo to the wall.
"Aren't we going to collect food? Why are we here?"
Shi Yu Qiluo asked in confusion, but when she came to her senses and looked carefully, she found out.
The several-meter-high wall was neatly filled with bloody human heads. The blood had dried up, and only traces could be seen on the wall below.
There is a head every half meter, and the layout is very tight.
Fortunately, it was daytime and the heads had their eyes closed as if they were asleep.
“Things are starting to get bad.”
Li Mo stopped ten meters away from the wall. There were no heads when he climbed over the wall.
These heads are lined up here, obviously to prevent any living people from leaving by climbing over the wall.
"Oh no? What happened?" Shigure Kirara asked in confusion, not realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Li Mo pondered for a long time and said seriously, "A single human-headed ghost has no intelligence. They only follow their killing instinct, just like the human head we faced yesterday. They only rushed towards us blindly, and once the incense was lit, they lost their target and fell silent."
"And when I climbed over the wall, there were no heads here. This means these heads were put there last night to prevent us from leaving."
Li Mo took out the coin with a strange pattern. As soon as he took it out, the heads nearby suddenly opened their eyes, as if they were about to wake up.
Li Mo had no intention of confronting the other party head-on now, but immediately took back the coin to avoid eye contact between the ghost and the coin.
The moment the coin was taken back, the head closed its eyes again.
"I originally wanted to let you guys climb over the wall and leave first, so there would be no need to collect a lot of food, but now it seems that someone doesn't want us to leave."
"A lot of people died last night. A lot."
Li Mo concluded, his voice sinking, his cloudy eyes growing dimmer, and an embarrassing corpse spot appeared on the back of his hand.
His body had begun to decay.
The head on the wall had not yet emitted a corpse stench, and even corpse spots could not be found. It was obvious that the person had been killed last night.
"Didn't we survive last night?" Shigure Kira asked.
"The ones who died were other people in the school. The human-headed ghosts successively occupied their bodies and gained some of their wisdom."
"Did you see a figure at the door last night?"
Shigure Qiluo thought for a moment, and suddenly remembered the human silhouette in the darkness.
"Yes, it just stood there without moving. I thought it was a cowardly survivor, too scared to come over in the dark."
Li Mo pointed out: "That is the person possessed by the human-headed ghost. He has wisdom and he saw us."
Shigure Kirara immediately said, "How is that possible? The grave incense is burning normally, and the auditorium should be able to block the ghost's perception."
"Yes, it can block the perception of ghosts, but it cannot cover people's eyes." Li Mo said seriously.
Ghosts cannot sense it, but humans can see it.
The ghost stood at the door, staring at them in the firelight.
There was also an inverted human head by the window, and the thing connected by the spine made Li Mo very concerned.
"We were stared at by that ghost all night last night!" Shi Yu Qiluo felt her scalp tingling instantly. She couldn't imagine what would have happened if everyone had fallen asleep last night.
The ghost might have sneaked in, mixed in with the crowd, and waited until seven o'clock in the evening to eat them one by one.
"You're right, it's a good thing none of us slept last night." Shi Yu Qiluo's heart beat faster. She thought she had escaped danger last night, but there was still such a horror staring at them.
Li Mo did not emphasize what happened last night. He thought more and further than Shi Yu Qiluo.
"What I'm most afraid of now isn't this. Because if the incense burns normally, ghosts can't sense it. Even if they know our location, they can't find us. As long as the incense burns normally and we hide in the flames, ghosts can't find us even if they stand right in front of us."
"If my reasoning is correct, and that ghost truly possesses human intelligence, would she have taken advantage of the fact that the incense on the graves was ineffective during the day and blended in with the survivors to enter the auditorium?"
Chapter 21 "Qiluo, break the wall for me."
Li Mo's bold assumption made Shi Yu Qiluo's eyes widen.
“!!! Go back, we have to go back now! We can’t let any ghosts get into our team!” Shi Yu Qiluo turned around and was about to run back when she was grabbed by Li Mo.
What a lot of strength.
Shigure Kirara was a little surprised. She was going to be promoted to an S-class Valkyrie next month. She had just finished running and was pulled back just as she rushed out.
The strength required to stop a moving S-Class Valkyrie is not much different from that required to stop a speeding car.
Li Mo, who died twice, is, in a sense, more difficult to deal with than an S-class Valkyrie, because Li Mo is difficult to kill in the physical sense unless it is a fatal blow.
"What's the point of you going back now? Remember what I said when I left? We can't go back until 7pm. If we go back now, wouldn't it be telling the devil that we know you're here?"
"It's only a little after eight in the morning. We've stopped the first wave, and there's still a second wave, unless you kill all the survivors one by one."
"Also, if we go back and find nothing, and get spotted by the ghost on the way, it would undoubtedly alert the enemy."
"Calm down, Shigure Kirara, I understand how you feel. You're just inexperienced, but I'm here and I'll take care of everything."
Li Mo tried to comfort Shi Yu Qiluo, but he was too emotionally deprived to say anything nice.
He could only tell her very bluntly that he would solve everything.
Li Mo understood that although he was now the apparent leader of more than 20 people, in fact, Shigure Kirara was the spiritual symbol of the Valkyrie team.
If Shigure Kirara starts to panic and makes the Valkyrie Team an obstacle, she might even be parasitized by a human head due to some mistakes.
For the current situation, this is like adding insult to injury.
When facing ghosts, numbers are never an advantage.
Shigure Qiluo bit her lip, thought for half a minute, and nodded silently.
"Sorry, I was impulsive."
"It's good that you realize your mistake. What we have to do now is to collect as many supplies as possible." Li Mo turned around and ignored the heads on the wall.
Li Mo: "We can't go to the store because there's a door... and we can't go in. If we go in, we'll die."
Shigure Kirara asked back, "Wait, are we going to go through drawers and backpacks one by one in the teaching building to find food and water?"
Li Mo: "Yes, this is the safest way."
Shigure Kirara: "Can't I just tear off the ceiling of the store and go in and collect it directly?"
Li Mo: "...You, can do it?"
Shigure Kirara: "Killing a ghost is hard, but lifting a roof is easy."
Without hesitation, Li Mo immediately grabbed Shi Yu Qiluo's hand and walked towards the store. "Let's go now. Bring me some more Coke. I want to drink."
"Hmm? Let's go, why are you standing there?"
Li Mo urged, saying that he still couldn't let go of Coke after dying twice. He hadn't eaten for a day. Although this body was beyond the normal human range, it retained its original behavioral habits.
The more depraved one becomes, the more precious one feels that the purest things are.
"Um...well...let's go!" Shigure Kirara answered vaguely and evasively.
Li Mo noticed Shi Yu Qiluo's change and thought she was worried that there might be a ghost in the store, so he patted his chest and said bluntly: "Don't worry, as long as you don't go in, nothing will happen. If a ghost appears, I will find a way to get you away. Just leave it to me."
The only problem is the door, so it doesn't matter if the building is damaged. Even if something goes wrong, there is still a backup plan.
Shigure Kirara: “…%@#¥”
Suddenly, the slightly red cheeks faded away again. Shi Yu Qiluo had a blank expression on her face, and even looked at Li Mo with a hint of disgust and speechlessness.
I knew I shouldn't have any expectations of this guy!
Arriving at the store, Shi Yu Qiluo stood there, looking at Li Mo with a look of despair as he filled his schoolbag with Coke.
Yes, like a child, only pick what you like.
This behavior is very childish, and the contrast with Li Mo's gloomy and dead fish face is too obvious.
It's like a serious-looking college student riding in a child's toy car, drifting and swinging in all kinds of ways.
There is another vivid metaphor that Shi Yu Qiluo once saw in a novel: The Red Kite Immortal, who had annihilated demons in Shenzhou and suppressed an entire generation, suddenly had the urge to enter a brothel one day, and amid the singing and dancing, he shouted, played music, and then danced.
The picture was simply too beautiful.
