Weird story about rules: I rely on magic to kill people

Chapter 57 Doomsday Crisis (3)

"No, can you see what they are pointing to in the distance?"

"Forgive me for magnifying the picture 8 times, but I can't see it clearly..."

"I just said that the picture quality in the live broadcast room should be improved! There is mosaic when zooming in..."

……

Xu Zhinian raised the corners of his mouth slightly towards Eliade, but said nothing, only quickened his pace.

They passed by several abandoned classrooms, but again they did not go in to investigate.

It wasn't until they reached the end of the corridor that Xu Zhinian and Eliad stopped.

Approaching the wall at the end, Xu Zhinian stretched out his hand and pointed at it again: "This time, do you know why I said I got here first, right?"

After hearing this, Eliade's eyes fell on the wall in front of him.

This is the notice board of this abandoned school. It has a list of honorary awards, photos of outstanding students, and the most important thing they are looking for——

A map of the entire school.

Eliade couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Sister Xu, NB!"

He carefully studied the school map and noted down some special locations, such as the parking garage mentioned in the rules, as well as the library, cafeteria, and student dormitories.

As he looked at it, doubts came to his mind, and Eliade asked again: "But Sister Xu, you are so far away, how did you see a map here?"

Xu Zhinian smiled. Of course she couldn't say that she could see the color of magic power. The blue magic power contained at the end of the corridor was about to overflow...

So she turned back and asked: "What? Have you never been to school? At the end of the corridor of your school, there is no such wall of honor, school introduction, map, etc.?"

Eliade scratched his head after hearing what she said: "It should be... yes..."

Xu Zhinian said nothing more and stared at the map on the wall.

She remembered it more carefully than Eliade, and in just 3 minutes, she memorized the entire map and all its details.

After remembering it, she turned around and called Eliad to set off.

Eliade looked confused again: "Where to go?"

Xu Zhinian glanced at him: "Library."

The library has a large number of paper books and periodicals, and can be said to be the most information-rich place in a school.

Perhaps the relevant information about the refuge, especially the text, is in the library.

Therefore, Xu Zhinian decided to go to the library first.

The two of them walked to the stairs on the second floor as shown on the map.

Xu Zhinian had just stepped up the first step, and Eliade behind him was a little scared: "Sister Xu, can we go downstairs now? Doesn't the rule say that everything below the third floor is dangerous? What if there are zombies?"

"I'm not afraid, I think we shouldn't leave this floor rashly until we understand the rules, especially the fourth and fifth items in the diary, right?"

Xu Zhinian actually understood what Eliade was thinking. He was right. If you don’t understand the rules in the Monster Paradise, you shouldn’t act rashly.

But how can we go to the library without going downstairs?
How can you find clues about the shelter without going to the library?
Do we have to be trapped on the second floor and wait for a few days to fully understand the rules before taking action?
The Doomsday Crisis dungeon mission was only given 15 days. How could such precious time be wasted?

Xu Zhinian was silent for a moment: "But we only have 15 days... How can we find relevant clues if we don't go downstairs?"

After that, Xu Zhinian took another step and walked down the stairs.

When she was halfway to the first floor, she turned back: "If you are really scared, then you go back to find Balu and the others. I will go alone."

Eliade thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and walked up the steps, quickly running to Xu Zhinian's side.

Slightly embarrassed, he smiled foolishly: "Sister Xu said that we are a team, so of course we have to act together!"

Xu Zhinian looked back, smiled, and continued walking forward.

Eliade followed closely behind her, his palms covered with sweat, but he was actually scared from the bottom of his heart.

The two walked along the stairs to the first floor, which was indeed darker than the one upstairs.

Just two or three steps out of the stairs, a flash of red magic came into Xu Zhinian's eyes.

She looked in the direction of the red magic, which was an abandoned classroom on the first floor.Recalling the map just now, it should be an art classroom.

But Xu Zhinian had no intention of entering the art classroom. After all, her purpose was the library.

The two of them quickened their pace and walked along the corridor to the lobby on the first floor.

In front of the door of the teaching building, Xu Zhinian stopped Eliade who was about to walk out behind him.

Eliade became confused again: "Sister Xu, why was it that you were the one who said I was leaving just now, and now you are the one who is stopping me?"

Xu Zhinian only said two words: "Rules."

"Rules, rules..." Iliad murmured, and suddenly thought of that rule, he shouted loudly: "Is it that one? The sun is fierce, please pay attention to shade?"

Xu Zhinian hurriedly covered Eliade's mouth and said to him seriously: "That's the one. But before you think about the rules, you'd better keep quiet."

"Aren't you afraid of attracting zombies if you are so loud?"

She is not afraid of zombies, and even if she cannot defeat them, she can use magic to escape.

But Iliad next to her is completely different. Once the zombies come, he will definitely be attacked by the group and become the food scraps of the zombies.

Sure enough, when zombies were mentioned, Iliad was so scared that he covered his mouth and solemnly said that he would be quiet.

"It scared me to death. I thought he would attract a swarm of zombies if he shouted so loudly..."

"Although it is a level III dungeon, there is still one hour of protection time, right? Within one hour, dangers like zombies won't appear, right?"

"Is there really a protective time? Isn't that a legend that is passed down from rumor to rumor?"

"I don't know, but why did Sister Xu stop suddenly? She was walking very fast just now."

……

After sorting out Eliade's various questions, Xu Zhinian looked back.

In fact, Xu Zhinian is not worried about violating the rules and causing strange things to happen.She even felt that the rule might not be correct...

But now with Eliade by her side, she couldn't take any chances.

So, she took out two cardboard boxes from the mailroom next to the lobby on the first floor and handed one of them to Eliad.

After Iliad took it with both hands, Xu Zhinian said: "We can't find any shade like an umbrella, and the cardboard box won't sink. Let's hold this and walk out."

Eliade nodded and obediently raised the carton over his head.

With everything ready, Xu Zhinian looked for the general direction and walked out of the teaching building holding the cardboard box first.

Eliade followed closely behind her. After the two walked along the asphalt road in front of the teaching building for a while, they turned right and entered the boundary of the library.

After walking about 50 meters, they arrived at the main entrance of the library.

There is a lock on the glass door of the library that hangs between the two door handles, locking the door.

The glass on the door seemed to have been penetrated by bullets, leaving three bullet holes and splintering outwards.

Looking through the glass into the library, I saw that the bookshelves inside had fallen to the floor, and various books were piled on the ground, emitting a damp, musty smell.

Just as Eliad was about to ask what to do, Xu Zhinian used magic to knock off the door lock.

Time was limited, and she didn't want to waste it on such dispensable things.

Xu Zhinian put the carton aside and reached out to push open the two doors.The glass on the door fell apart the moment she pushed it open, making a crackling sound.

Iliad on the side was frightened by the sound. He grabbed the cardboard box tighter with both hands and formed a spire shape above his head.

He ran behind Xu Zhinian and glanced left and right, fearing that the sound would attract zombies.

……

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the library.

someone...

No, there are zombies coming out of it!
