Mosaic School (12)
The rules of the ga are simple. The students participating in the ga will stand at the starting point, which is here. The female teacher stepped on the red rope in the middle of the classroom with her high heels. Once the ga starts, I will stand at the end of the classroom in front of the window with my eyes closed. You will move to the finish line as quickly as possible while my eyes are closed.
However, you should be careful. Try not to make too much noise during the movent. Once I turn my head and open my eyes, you must be like a statue with no movent. You must not make any sounds or expressions. You must be completely still.
The students who cant do it will be considered to fail the ga and will be out. The other statues will continue to play until I turn my head and close my eyes, the female teacher said while twisting her neck 180 degrees. As long as one of the statues successfully moves to the finish line, you can get the prompt about tonights school rule.
The twisted neck of the female teacher was chilling, but the last rule made everyone see hope.
The Statues ga didnt seem that difficult. Based on the rules, only one person needed to successfully make it to the finish line and they would pass smoothly. Getting the reward ant that everyone would know the answer to the taboo.
I dont know if the students are clear about the rules or not. Rember, any movent in my line of sight is absolutely forbidden.
Chi Nan asked, Why is the starting point the middle of the classroom rather than where we are standing now?
According to the usual thinking, the starting point was often at the entrance, so as to ensure that there was enough room to play.
The female teacher replied, As long as the classroom is spacious enough, it doesnt matter where you start.
Guo Xian said, The longer the distance, the more unfavorable it is for us. It is better to start from the middle.
Everyone agreed. This dance studio was around 30 ters long. The starting point being in the middle of the classroom ant the finish line was only half the distance, or 15 ters. This was a favorable condition for the statues so they didnt think deeply.
If there are no problems, the students can start grouping themselves. Rember, there must be at least four students in each group. The end ti of each ga is determined by the ti of the last students failure.
Guo Xian thought about it for a mont. In other words, the 12 of us can be divided into three groups at most to play.
Is it allowed for 12 people to directly play together according to the rules? one of the male newcors asked.
Guo Xia replied, It is allowed in the rules, but the fewer groupings there are, the more unfavorable it is to us.
Why? The success or failure of the ga only depends on the final score of the individual, not the group elimination system. The number of people in a group shouldnt make a difference?
As an old sleepwalker, Guo Xian was more sensitive than the average person in this regard. There is naturally a difference. The more groups there are, the more opportunities we will have to do trial and error, and the more ti there is to prepare. The later students can make plans according to the special situations encountered by the previous participants and the winning rate will be greatly improved.
Ahh. Why didnt I expect a special situation? The student suddenly realized. This way, we will have two trial and error opportunities. If the first two groups fail, the last group of students will be relatively stressed.
After being inspired by Guo Xian, they quickly divided into three groups according to their experience and performance in the last two days.
The four mbers of the final group were Chi Nan, Tang Yu, Guo Xian, and his roommate Jiang Liang.
The first group to play the ga was Liang Han and Shu Yanfan of Room 204 and Jiang Boming and Song Ye of Room 208. They stood at the starting point indicated by the red rope in the middle of the classroom and couldnt help looking around with trepidation.
The female teachers high heels clacked as she walked to the window at the end of the classroom and stood still. Once the ga starts, you need to read a password in unison: No walking, no laughing, no talking, no moving. We are all statues. Then, after chanting this, the ga will officially begin.
The password to play Statues was backwards. Tang Yu, who was standing next to Chi Nan, muttered quietly, Why is it read backwards? Is there a mistake?
However, she didnt take it too seriously. She soon focused on the four sleepwalkers at the red rope that was the starting point.
No walking, no laughing, no talking, no moving. We are all statues.
The voices of the four participants fell and the lights in the classroom snapped off in an instant. The four people at the starting point seed startled and looked around uneasily. The light from the snow coming through the window of the dance studio beca the only light source in the darkness. The figure of the female teacher facing the window appeared elongated. She hugged her arms and turned her back to the players. Her leisurely pose looked like she was admiring the snow outside the window.
Humans were creatures of light and would instinctively move toward bright places.
Song Yu had just tentatively taken a step forward when there was a popping sound directly above him. A beam of light fell on the four people, and Liang Han couldnt suppress himself from making a sound.
W-What is going on? Liang Han asked in a trembling voice.
Shhh, dont talk loudly. It should be a ga effect to deliberately frighten us.
The spotlight that hit them gave them the illusion of standing on the stage. In the pale light, the players every move beca the focus of all eyes.
There seed to be countless pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness and staring at them. As statues, they had to perform in the spotlight according to the rules, like puppets with bound hands and feet.
Everyone breathed lightly, but they couldnt control the thumping of their hearts. They pounded in their chest cavities and they had dry throats and difficulty breathing.
The four newcors in the ga and the eight onlookers looked at the female teacher at the end of the classroom. She held her posture like a statue and gave the illusion that she wouldnt turn her head.
The four people carefully moved forward two steps.
Shu Yanfan had just wanted to take a third step when a pair of hands blocked her eyes. She was frightened and stiffened in place. A mont later, she found that it was Jiang Bomings hand. She raised her eyes to find that the female teachers neck had started to creak in their direction. Shu Yanfan secretly sighed with relief. If it hadnt been for Jiang Boming stopping her in ti, she wouldve beco the first person out.
Before she could sigh with relief, the female teacher standing near the window teleported to the position where they were standing and stared at Shu Yanfan. Her blood red lips split all the way to the base of her ears and the pale light of the spotlight revealed her bright red gums and sharpened, claw-like teeth. She showed a vicious smile toward the four statues fixed in place.
Ahhh! Shu Yanfan and Jiang Boming were caught off guard by fear and scread. Song Yu didnt scream, but he reflexively took a step back. The remaining Liang Han didnt scream or move. He was stunned for half a second before straightening up and falling backwards. He was actually extrely frightened by the sudden, blood-red smile.
The female teacher put away her smile with satisfaction. Unfortunately, the four students in the first group have failed the ga. I hope that the remaining students will have a better performance.
They hadnt played in person, but the four people in the next group, who had been standing near the area, were also scared to the point of sweating. Just watching from a distance was terrifying enough. How could they not scream if the bloody mouth was directly in front of them?
Guo Xians eyes narrowed slightly. It seems to be more difficult than expected. There are all types of frightening interferences on the way to the finish line.
Tong Yu was unmoved and looked eager to try it. Look at . It just so happens that my motor nerves are good and Im not afraid of these things.
Soon, the four mbers of the second group stood at the red rope of the starting point. They were Zhen Zimo and Tao Le of Room 206 and Tong Yu and Guo Yaoyao of Room 207.
The rules havent changed. Students can start reciting the password when you are ready. The female teacher stood at the window at the end of the classroom again and had her back to them with arms folded like before.
Due to the experience of the first round, everyone was calm when the spotlight ca on. However, even though two of the students were psychologically prepared, they were still caught off guard when the female teacher suddenly appeared to scare them. Another student saw a dark shadow in the mirror that devoured people behind him when he was moving. He was so scared that he shouted without paying attention to the rules.
Soon, only the calm Tong Yu was left on the field.
I had been wondering what the mirrors on the two walls were for. They are ant to interfere with the players, Guo Xian stated.
Chi Nan looked at the out-of-sync images in the mirror. The pictures on the mirror should be virtual projections. They are just placed there and cant harm us.
Guo Xian glanced at the expressionless Chi Nan and smiled bitterly. Thats right. It is just that in extrely tense situations, not many people can control their fear when they suddenly see a horrifying image in the mirror.
Then he shifted his gaze to the calm and agile Tong Yu. He admired, This girls potential is really good.
Chi Nan looked at the room where only one student was left and then instinctively glanced at the clock on the wall. He found that the clock that had previously shown 5:30 was now pointing at 4:10.
His heart sank slightly. It seed that it wasnt that the clock was broken and didnt work. It was that the ti was wrong.
On the field, Tong Yus movents were brisk and quick. The mont when the teacher twisted her neck the third ti, she moved as light as a swallow behind the teacher symbolizing the end. Once she reached this point, all the sleepwalkers in the dance studio sighed with relief.
The rules of Statues were clear to everyone and the female teacher had stressed before that those who made it to the finish line were free and could move at will without being restricted by the teachers gaze.
Therefore, Tong Yu let down her gaze and even raised her chin triumphantly when the female teacher turned her head. Teacher, I have successfully passed the test. Please give tonights clue according to the rules set previously.
The female teacher slightly raised an eyebrow and clearly enunciated every word, Unfortunately, this student failed the ga. I will now announce the second group has been eliminated.
Everyone was stunned the mont she said this.
Tong Yus eyes widened with disbelief. How can it be a failure? Didnt I make it to the finish line?
The female teacher just smiled and shifted her gaze to Chi Nan. The third group of students, please get ready. The new round of the ga will start in five minutes.
The group was suddenly dumbfounded.
How can this be played? Tong Yu obviously reached the finish line in accordance with the rules but was unilaterally judged to have failed the ga without a specific explanation. Doesnt this an we have no chance of winning?
I now suspect that it is a failure no matter how we play the ga? What playing the ga? We can only fight for luck tonight.
Guo Xian frowned. This is unreasonable. The dream maker might have absolute power in the Nightmare World but they cant break the rules they set without authorization. There must be sothing we have overlooked.
However, the rules of Statues are simple. We cant make any sounds or movents when under the gaze of the teacher and we must quickly reach the finish line to gain freedom. Tong Yu obviously did it
There were still three minutes until the third round of the ga started. The group couldnt deduce the reason for the failure and felt frustrated and nervous.
Only one last chance remained, but the situation had changed drastically and they had no clue
Chi Nan looked at the clock on the wall again. Now the ti had beco 3:50.
Ti went back!
In addition to the clock, there was the beginning of the ga where Tang Yu complained that the password was said backwards.
Chi Nan shifted his gaze to the starting point of the ga, which was located in the middle of the classroom.
Why start in the middle of the classroom? It was absolutely impossible for the female teacher to be rciful in order to reduce the difficulty and shorten the distance. This was actually the biggest trap of the ga.
Chi Nan already had an answer in his heart.
