Mentioning the body that could be retrieved soon, the tentacles excitedly wrapped around Yin Xiu's fingers, leaving a trail of sticky water on his arm.
Yin Xiu silently lowered his eyes and glanced at the tiny tentacles that were winding and clinging to his arm. They had become small, wriggling, and occasionally tangled, seemingly much cuter than humanoid ones.
When I looked into the eyes above, the intense dizziness I felt at the beginning was gone. I don't know if it was because Li Mo had reduced or weakened his physical presence.
As Yin Xiu walked towards the teaching building, he chatted with Li Mo, "Do you know if there's a dungeon monster in this instance that looks a lot like you?"
"Looks a lot like me?" The little tentacles became alert.
"Yes, before entering the dungeon, I saw the core character of this dungeon, which is a black octopus that looks a lot like you, with eyes on its tentacles. At first, I thought it was you." Yin Xiu said casually, recalling how excited he was when he first entered the dungeon, thinking he had entered a dungeon where Li Mo's true form was.
If it were something similar, he might not be able to understand the complete Li Mo.
"I have no clan, I only have one!" Li Mo earnestly instructed, "At least since I became conscious, I have been one."
Yin Xiu glanced at him sideways out of the corner of his eye, "You were born from a copy?"
The tiny tentacles swayed. "No... when I was born, there was no copy yet."
"There's no instance yet?" Yin Xiu pondered. He thought Li Mo must be a strange boss in some instance that he had met in an instance he had cleared before, which was why the other party came to the town to find him and drag him into the instance. But he didn't belong to the instance... So why is he here?
As Yin Xiu pondered, he decided to ask about it in detail later, and then entered the teaching building.
The moment Yin Xiu stepped into the teaching building, an inexplicable dizziness overwhelmed him. He stumbled, nearly falling over, and quickly grabbed the wall for support.
"What's wrong?" The tentacles emerged from the sleeve and stared nervously at Yin Xiu.
Yin Xiu frowned, shook his head, and leaned against the dark corridor wall. He felt dizzy and a sense of danger and chill inexplicably surged up.
In the pitch-black night, a series of muttered voices rushed toward him from outside the teaching building.
Without hesitation, he immediately turned around and went into the nearest classroom, quickly locking both classroom doors.
Almost the instant the classroom door was locked, a dull thud slammed against the door, echoing throughout the empty classroom.
Someone was banging on the door, trying to get in.
Loud banging echoed in the night. Many people were pounding on both the front and back doors of the classroom, making the doors sway precariously as if they would be knocked open at any moment.
Unsure whether they could break down the classroom door and get in, Yin Xiu turned around and pushed some desks up to the doorway.
Based on last night's events, Yin Xiu could roughly figure out that the "them" mentioned in the rules for the night were mostly the classmates who were with him during the day. The rules stated that he could not kill his classmates, and it seemed that he could not even kill his classmates at night.
So many strange creatures swarmed up at the same time, and they were so reckless. Even Yin Xiu would find it troublesome and would try to avoid it if possible.
After blocking both doors with desks, Yin Xiu took a few steps back, staring at the vibrating door panels. The entire classroom was filled with the sound of banging, which hurt his ears.
Just in case, he checked the windows again to make sure none of them were open.
But as soon as the tightly closed curtains were drawn back, a pair of enormous eyes suddenly appeared outside the glass window, their scarlet pupils filling the entire pane.
In an instant, the chill ran from head to toe, leaving Yin Xiu stunned in place. His eyes were filled with those red eyes, as if his own eyes had turned red as well.
Yin Xiu was unable to move, as if he was being held captive by those enormous eyes, unable to look away no matter what.
It was a huge, pitch-black monster. Its massive form was completely submerged in the night, making it impossible to discern its complete outline. However, its red eyes stood out conspicuously in the darkness, and its shimmering pupils almost filled the entire window. It stared at Yin Xiu, staring intently without blinking.
Rule number five: Draw the curtains at night and do not look directly out the window, or they will lose their minds, go crazy, and look for you.
It's dangerous for Yin Xiu not to check the windows; it seems that even checking the windows could lead to an accident.
He tried with all his might to shake off the gaze, but even closing his eyes or turning his head away was difficult.
The moment their eyes met, it felt as if they had fallen into an abyss, from which they could not escape on their own.
Without a sound, the viewers could clearly see black, creeping patterns slowly appearing on Yin Xiu's body, and a red eye rapidly growing on his left cheek.
"No! Don't look at it!" The tentacles inside the sleeve wriggled and laboriously climbed up Yin Xiu's neck, covering his eyes with their tentacles.
While covering Yin Xiu, it also sprouted eyes from the back of its tentacles, staring intently at the eyes outside the window.
After blocking the view, Yin Xiu shook off the chill a little, then quickly turned around and sat down under the window, pulling the curtains shut.
The classroom was pitch black, and the knocking on the door continued. Even though he wasn't looking at those eyes anymore, Yin Xiu felt that those eyes were still lingering in front of him.
Whether the window is open or not is no longer important! At worst, Li Mo will eat him up in a while. The problem is, what's that outside the window? Just one glance was enough to subdue him.
"What is that thing... It feels different from the dungeon bosses I've encountered before." Yin Xiu took a deep breath, his hand trembling as he gripped the hilt of his sword, his fingers clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and he dared not let go.
"You, you've become so strange…" Tentacles emerged from Yin Xiu's collar, staring intently at him. "You have… you have an extra eye."
"Where?" Yin Xiu nervously reached out and touched his face, his fingers tracing his features carefully. He touched his two eyes, then his third eye, and looked at the tentacles in front of him in confusion. "Nothing extra has appeared?"
"You... you have three eyes!" The tentacle was shocked. He had seen Yin Xiu touch all the eyes and didn't find it strange at all.
"Three eyes?" Yin Xiu touched his left cheek again. "Humans do have three eyes."
The tiny tentacles were shocked again. They trembled and tried to explain, "Humans have two eyes! Only two!"
Yin Xiu touched his face again, then touched his tentacles. "You're mistaken, humans do have three eyes."
The tentacles, covered in eyes, roared in fury, "Humans! Are! Just! Two! Eyes!"
Although it's not human, it knows exactly what a human face should look like! It has carefully studied what a good-looking person should look like!
"Really?" Yin Xiu touched his eyes and muttered softly, "Humans have three eyes, huh?"
He wanted to believe Li Mo, but in his current understanding, humans had three eyes.
He watched as Yin Xiu touched his face, looking puzzled.
Enraged, the tentacles wanted to smash the window and go out to fight the monster outside, but its body hadn't even fully entered yet, so it couldn't win and could only tremble with anger.
Our first priority now is to get my body in here as soon as possible!
