Chapter 275

Click——click——

Without feeling any obstruction at all, Gao Hai casually pulled out several nails on the board.

Is it because nailing the window itself is not very effective in preventing the invasion of monsters, it can only block the line of sight, so in the children's perception, this thing has become something [easily destroyed]?

Gao Hai guessed the possible reason, his hands continued to speed up, and he removed a piece of wood in a short while.

While the dust was flying, Gao Hai casually placed the wooden board that seemed to have been removed from the desk on the ground.

Through the dim light coming from the window, he could see several headless figures wearing researcher clothes, standing motionless outside.

The researchers outside these windows always seem to appear in a headless form. They have almost lost all their observation capabilities. They can only vaguely sense whether there is someone on the other side when looking through the [window], and Gao Hai has not yet verified it, and it is not sure whether it will react to physical contact.

Why do they appear in the form of headless men?

Gao Hai couldn't help but think of the scene where he had encountered Alice's hallucination in his residence and saw many headless students standing on the second floor.

The headless students I saw at that time should all be high school students, um... Hayatachi Elementary School, Touka Middle School, and Yoroyama Middle School. The connection between these three schools is very close, so the [headless students] at Hayatachi Elementary School ] mechanism, will it be related to Yeluoshan Middle School?

Speaking of which, Kaguya also became in this state after her head was pulled out by something. It's just that she can still find her head, so she will change into a form where she thinks she is alive. However, these researchers seem to be unable to find her head, so she has become in this wooden stake-like state. Considering that I have also encountered weird things that can change heads and bodies, maybe these three different things can be regarded as three different branches of the same kind of weirdness, or three different forms?

While thinking, Gao Hai had decisively climbed out of the window.

Hayasaka Ai followed closely behind. She was a little confused as to why Gao Hai didn't knock her unconscious this time, but since the other party didn't explain specifically, she followed him honestly.

"Be careful not to touch those things, and find a way to find a door to get out of here."

Gao Hai did not look back, but said casually after feeling Hayasaka's gaze behind him.

Just like the last time I came here, it is still a vast white space filled with all kinds of twisted and chaotic things.

However, Gao Hai was the only one who stayed awake here before. At that time, he did not feel too strong a sense of abnormality, but now Hayasaka also came in with him while he was awake. This time Gao Hai immediately discovered this An important characteristic of white space.

【……call】

The sound of labored breathing sounded from the broken heads.

Each of the headless researchers slowly turned around and faced the direction of Gao Hai.

As Hayasaka Ai's eyes fell on Gao Hai.

As Gao Hai was [observed] and [discovered], those strange creatures that could not see or feel anything began to target Gao Hai.

The strong feeling of being watched came from every direction around.

Even if Hayasaka looks away and no longer looks at Gao Hai, these eyes will not shift away from Gao Hai.

"I see, the reaction to [foreign objects] here is really quite big."

Gao Hai, who could already feel something approaching around him, turned to look at Hayasaka, who was still clueless. He stretched out his hand and pulled her over to hold her in his arms, lifting one hand to the side of her waist.

"We're going to speed up, don't spit it out."

The next moment, as Gao Hai finished speaking, he suddenly flew forward.

boom!

The extremely powerful acceleration in that instant made Hayasaka feel like he was sitting on an out-of-control jumping machine. No, it was ten times or even nine times more exciting than that.

More than ten minutes later, as the door of a dilapidated room was suddenly opened, Gao Hai rushed into the room, turned around, pulled out the bloody key, and then closed the door. Then he put down Hayasaka, and then looked at the surrounding environment in passing. Hayasaka looked a little unsteady when walking and had to hold on to the wall to keep from falling.

"Are you okay?"

Gao Hai asked casually, and after confirming that Hayasaka would not vomit, he began to investigate the room.

This room looked somewhat familiar, reminding Gao Hai of the small bedroom he woke up in when he entered Zaoli Elementary School. However, compared with that room, this room looks more dilapidated, and it has obviously been transformed by later generations.

The windows have been completely sealed, and the outside has been completely isolated by nailing curtains and wooden boards together to ensure that no one inside the house can see the scene outside the house. The single bed was overturned and erected to form a baffle, and the bedding was placed behind the baffle. An old-fashioned shotgun was placed next to the bedding.

The large bookcase was also moved to the side of the bed and placed horizontally on the ground. Next to the door where Gao Hai came in and was the only way in and out of the room, he saw some books that were dumped on the ground and connected with lines. Cans. Judging from the position where the cans fell, these things should have been placed by the door, and they were probably used for warning.

In addition, Gao Hai didn't find the computer he saw on the surface before. He didn't even see the circuit of the wires, and he didn't know what was going on.

Another stronghold left by survivors?

The room itself seemed to have been abandoned for a while. Gao Hai walked around the room without encountering any danger.

Considering that what he was thinking about when using the blood key to open the door was [entering a safe area where he could hide], there should be no danger to worry about in this room. Well, although he only came in here when he opened the door for the third time, in the first two times, as soon as he opened the door, something would jump out and attack him. If Gao Hai hadn't been quick enough, he would have probably It has been reopened.

Snapped--

Throwing down the 20-sided dice and looking at the numbers displayed on it, the relieved Gao Hai felt completely relieved. After signaling Hayasaka, who was still a little dizzy, to sit down and rest, he walked to the bed behind the baffle. Next to him, he picked up the shotgun.

"It's actually an obsession."

Gao Hai pulled the bolt of the gun, ejected a bright yellow bullet, and watched the bullet disappear in his hand. Then he sensed that the gun itself should be an obsession.

This gun seems to be able to [repel] the physical monsters active in this instance to a certain extent, that is, those decapitated monsters who think they are still [alive] will briefly think that they are alive after being hit by this gun. [Dead], thus temporarily inactive for a period of time.

The side effects are not yet clear, but Gao Hai suspects that the gun may become empty after firing a certain number of times, and if it continues to fire after emptying the bullet, it will have bad consequences.

You can give it to Hayasaka to try it out, it can also increase her combat effectiveness.

Gao Hai, who was thinking like this, then noticed a small notebook placed next to the gun. He knelt down, picked it up, opened it, and found that what was recorded on it was the record left by the survivor who once hid here. It’s not a lot, but it’s enough to piece something together.

Chapter 42: Things you don’t know and things you chase after

[Diary record: Morikami Cao Chang]

Hmm...why not Corporal Morishita?

After turning the first page, Gao Hai couldn't help but complain in his heart.

He looked around, but didn't see any "friends" appearing. It seemed that as he stayed in this copy for longer and longer, and his own willpower was strong enough, this cognitive blocking mechanism had basically been blocked. He's not very effective anymore.

But this kind of thing is not important, let’s take a look at what’s behind it.

Thinking this way, Gao Hai began to slowly read through the notebook.

[This diary was recorded on the third day I was trapped in Zaoli Elementary School. If I fail to leave this place alive one day, I hope that future generations can hand over this diary to the military so that people know that I sacrificed my life for the great common prosperity. A glorious warrior, not a deserter or a missing person]

[During the arrest operation three days ago, I and my team encountered a pitch-black monster as they advanced. Even with guns and bayonets unable to produce any effect, the team was scattered. I was injured and had to look for a place. Hide, then accidentally enter this room by mistake, and transform the room into a temporary refuge area]

[I have been trying to find other soldiers since the first day, but for some reason I have never been able to leave this school, and I have no way to find any trace of anyone alive except me.]

The timeline of the notes is quite clear, but can't he find anyone else? The military camp was not integrated into the school immediately after it was slaughtered?

[This school is said to be established to cultivate secret weapons that can win the war. I don’t know the specific method, but this school can constantly change its internal structure. The structure of each room and corridor seems to undergo abnormal changes. I have to say it is truly amazing. Not only that, I have also encountered all kinds of incredible things in this place, whether it is those monsters that are completely black and cannot be eliminated by any means, or the weird ones with dogs that make people run away after just one look from a distance. Men are still those things with blood-red smiles on their faces like masks... Sometimes I even think that I have arrived at the entrance of the underworld, so I see all kinds of weird spirits]

[Anyway, I have been living here for three days. Those things will become very active at night, so I can only hide in the house. During the day, their number will be relatively smaller, but they are still dangerous. I decided to record everything I have seen. In this place, my memory seems to be good and bad. I hope this can help me persevere better]

【1. Black fuzzy humanoid】

[Such things seem to appear in any situation. They will wander around randomly and hide in every corner, such as behind doors, under beds, and in cabinets. These things are as cunning as experienced hunters. If I were not vigilant enough and heard some unusual noises while investigating the room, I might have been caught by them]

[No weapons are lethal to them. I already knew this when I first entered the school. The only way to deal with them is to escape. They don’t seem to move very fast and are blocked by doors and various obstacles, so I have never been caught by them until now]

【2. A blurry black humanoid with a red smiley face】

[This kind of thing is very similar to the first kind of monster, but the way it moves is completely different. There are fewer of them, and they are more ferocious. They will also try to communicate with people, hide in the dark and make sounds to lure people to come closer, and walk behind people to talk to them. Some smiley monsters can even replace their heads with people's bodies. One of my comrades had his head ripped off and replaced with his own. It was really terrifying]

[This thing is also not vulnerable to any weapons, and no matter how you run, you can't seem to get rid of it, but the man with the dog seems to be able to scare it away. Whether it is this red smiley face or those black things, they will not appear in front of the butcher-like man. Maybe there is something special about that man, but I really dare not get close. I have seen with my own eyes that a comrade who was close to him turned into an Akita dog out of thin air, and then was led away by him. Whatever that man is, it is certain that he is definitely not a human]

[3. Headless students and adults]

[There are a lot of these things, but sometimes you can't find where they are, and sometimes they pop up inexplicably, and people can't imagine where they came from. The danger of these things is relatively small. As long as they don't hit the heads of those monsters, or don't come into physical contact with them, or don't enter the room where those things gather, they won't be threatened by them.]

[Bullets can repel them, but it doesn't seem to cause real damage. These things are like sleepwalkers, and they seem to do something repeatedly. For example, every time you go to the restaurant, there will be a lot of those things gathering down. In addition, some headless monsters seem to be able to see people and will keep chasing them. I really don't understand how to distinguish them.]

[4. People with thin lines on their necks]

[I really thought they were people at first, especially after I found that some of them were wearing the same military uniforms as me. They also communicated with me like normal people and thought they were also trapped. But these things seem normal on the surface, but in fact, their heads will fall off their bodies with a light tap, and they themselves are completely unaware of what they look like. They will walk behind you in a normal and polite manner and try to pull your head off.]

[Bullets can kill them (crossed out)]

[Bullets cannot kill them. They look like they have been knocked down and killed, but they will get up again soon, and the muzzle will disappear without a trace after getting up, leaving no holes in their clothes. But at least shooting can temporarily stop the actions of these things, but it should be noted that only when the head has not fallen off can their actions be suspended by shooting them with a gun. Monsters with their heads lost will not be repelled by gunfire.]

[Those of them wearing military uniforms... Could they be my comrades-in-arms? This place scares me more and more, but it is precisely such terrible weapons that can defeat the enemy and realize the dream of common prosperity for adults. I guess now that the United States has surrendered and lost the war, I guess a brand new future is already welcoming all of us. Yes, the fact must be like this. The more terrible these monsters are, the more proud I should be! 】

【5. A normal-looking elementary school girl】

【.. . (A whole page is blank with only a few ink dots on it)】

【Don't lie to her, don't lie to her, don't lie to her, don't lie to her, don't lie to her, don't... (a whole page of messy notes repeats)】

Chiyoko Hachiya?

Could it be that this guy lied to that weird thing? Can he survive and record it after lying? Why don't I have this treatment? No, wait, maybe he didn't survive. If so, I'm afraid I still have to be prepared later.

Gao Hai already had a premonition in his heart.

【6. A huge black and red monster】

【... (Several pages are blank, not even a single ink dot can be found)】

This is the sixth monster that was not recorded. Gao Hai knew what it was, that is, the big mouth flower that was suspected to be summoned by Chiyoko Hachiya and killed several of his lives. This little neon actually saw that thing and was able to record its appearance characteristics, which made Gao Hai think deeply.

Turning the pages further, Gao Hai felt a sense of déjà vu about the following contents.

[…I don’t remember when I wrote this diary. I seem to have been trapped here for a long time, but it seems to be only one or two days in my memory? I don’t have many bullets. If I really persisted here for many days, the bullets should have been used up long ago, but no matter how I counted, there were still many bullets.]

[This is the record of my fifth day. According to my memory, this should be the fifth day I stayed in this place.]

[This record is undoubtedly in my handwriting, but I really have no impression. Fortunately, I can avoid many dangers with this record.]

[I tried to draw a map many times, but there seems to be no rules for the changes in this place. I am afraid that doing so is useless (there are many blurred sketches on these pages of the notebook)]

[The records in this notebook make me feel panic. I clearly remember that I just separated from my comrades, but why did I pick up such a strange notebook, why are there so many records in it, and all of them are in my tone and handwriting? 】

【Is this what I wrote? 】

[Have I found this notebook many times? ]

Caught in a loop?

Being caught in a loop should be due to a positive interaction with "Darkness". But the records left after I was caught in the loop can only be inherited once, but this guy can inherit the records of an entire notebook. Is it because he used the portable items in the copy to record? No, it shouldn't be just that.

[The number of pages in the notebook is running out]

[Whether the content above is true or false, I don't have much space to continue writing. I must carefully record every sentence that follows, for my current self and for my future self]

Gao Hai continued to turn the pages. He had already begun to vaguely feel a kind of cold feeling of being watched.

[The changes in this place are very large, but compared with the initial records in the notebook, it seems that there is gradually some regularity? Is this place gradually becoming stable? ]

[Is it that I have been trapped in a certain loop, or is this place always looping? ]

[According to the records in the notebook, I have run out of bullets many times, but now I clearly have plenty of bullets]

[Could it be that I have overlooked something?]

As the pages continued to turn, Gao Hai seemed to hear someone muttering something in a low voice. It was as if he was talking to himself, or trying to talk to someone quietly.

[This gun... This is my favorite gun inherited from my father. Isn't this the gun I use when I act?]

[Did I remember something wrong? I have been trapped here, I have been trapped here...]

The voice sounded in his ears, and the voice was full of confusion.

[I seem to know what is going on]

The man's voice was filled with a sense of enlightenment.

[As expected]

The man's voice trembled, and his cold breath blew on Gao Hai's ear.

[I pulled my head off]

[I just reached out and grabbed both sides of my head and pulled it off easily]

[It turns out that I am actually a monster, I am actually dead, I have become the same kind as those things]

Amid the sighing sound, a hand reached out to Gao Hai's shoulder and groped towards his head.

Bang!

The next second, a gunshot sounded and something flew up and hit the wall, and Gao Hai had already thrown away the notebook and stood up, looking at the headless body that appeared out of thin air in the room, and the head rolling on the ground.

Sure enough, it was dead and turned into a weird thing, so it could leave a record. Because the record at this time is actually part of the distortion and pollution, so it can be preserved. Hum, this routine can no longer trick him now.

"Huh?!"

Hayasaka, who had no idea what was going on, found that there was a headless man in the room in a blink of an eye, and the whole person was blown up.
