Chapter 52 – Snake Demon

　　The rose-colored flames illuminated the entire corridor as if it were day.

　　Red Tassel held her spear, her body crouching slightly, her eyes gazing at the four monsters in front of her, a circle of flaming heat waves spreading slowly with her as the center.

　　Suddenly, her figure shot out as if she had transformed into a blazing fire!

　　The rose-colored embers melted rapidly in the air, dragging out a tasseled red residue, her speed was too fast, so fast that the naked eye was unable to catch her tracks!

　　In an instant, she flashed to the monster’s body!

　　With a light tremor of her spear, countless flaming shadows blossomed like flower buds, stabbing the four monsters in front of her who had yet to react into sieves!

　　Rose-colored flames flared up, engulfing the shrill hissing monsters into oblivion.

　　Points of residual fire fell from the air, as if fading cherry blossoms, spreading throughout the entire corridor.

　　Red Tassel slung the lance in her hand behind her back and gently snapped her fingers, and the flames in the corridor died out in an instant, plunging into darkness once again.

　　Xiao Nan, are you okay?

　　It s okay …… I even cut down one. Si Xiaonan valued the monsters on the ground that were cut to pieces, and smiled cheekily.

　　Xiao Nan is awesome. The red tassel walked up and touched her head, said with a smile.

　　Where to compare to the red tassel sister, your [Rose Fire Feather Dress] out, and then dozens of monsters are not enough to kill.

　　You’re the one who’s sweet-talking.

　　Right at this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from the hallway.

　　Red Tassel’s brows furrowed as he gripped the lance behind his back and looked out vigilantly.

　　What’s going on? Why are there still students inside? The hostel manager with a face full of panic climbed up the stairs and exclaimed when he saw the duo standing in the corridor full of scorch marks.

　　Seeing the visitor, Red Tassel loosened up a bit and moved her hand away from the lance.

　　We’re students here to put out the fire, it’s already out. Red Tassel replied.

　　Due to the darkness of the corridor, the hostel aunty didn’t seem to see the lance on her, and waved at them hurriedly.

　　Which class are you students from? How come you’re so unafraid of death? Quickly follow me out, the fire trucks will be coming in a while!

　　Red Tassel and Si Xiaonan looked at each other, put the weapons in their hands into their black boxes, and quickly ran towards the building.

　　The two of them walked to the body of the hostess aunt, and she seemed to be about to say something ……

　　Bang–!

　　A buzzing gunshot suddenly burst out, and a bullet passed through the gap in the handrail and shot into the hostess’s waist!

　　Red Tassel and Si Xiaonan’s pupils suddenly contracted, subconsciously pulling away from the hostage manager.

　　The powerful recoil slammed the hostess against the edge of the wall, and she stared in dismay at the teenager downstairs who was slowly walking up the stairs.

　　In the next moment, her head blossomed into a hideous flesh and blood monster!

　　Hissed!

　　Obviously hit at the head …… How did it shoot to the waist?

　　At the corner of the building, Lin Qiye took the gun and muttered, the gun was aimed at the bloody mouth, and he pulled the trigger without expression.

　　Bang! Bang! Bang!

　　Three consecutive bullets pierced through the monster’s mouth, its body convulsed violently for a bit, lost its vitality, and tumbled down the stairs stiffly

　　Seven Nights? Red Tassel opened his mouth in surprise.

　　I heard that you guys were caught in a bitter battle here, so I rushed over. Lin Qiye put his pistol away, stepped on the ground covered in blood and flesh and walked up the stairs, looking around for a moment…

　　Eh? Where are the monsters?

　　They’re done. Red Tassel crossed her arms and said with a smile, an expression of I’m strong you should praise me.

　　Did you find the main body?

　　Red Tassel’s face immediately collapsed, shaking his head in frustration, no.

　　Lin Qiye carefully circled around this floor, Woody mused, by all accounts, this is where the first infected person appeared, could it be that its main body left again after infecting others?

　　Is it that smart?

　　This mythical creature must possess no less intelligence. Lin Qiye said with certainty, it could perfectly replicate a person’s personality, behavior, and habits, making it completely impossible to tell the truth from the lie, which was not something a beast could do.

　　What’s more, its infection strategies up until now possessed a strong sense of logic.

　　Logical? Is there? Si Xiaonan asked in doubt.

　　Yes, it chose to start the infection from the girls’ dormitory not only because the girls’ physical strength was weaker and easier to control, but also skillfully utilized the unique charm of the girls to make the others drop their guard.

　　It used these girls to communicate with other boys to gain favor with each other, then asked them out to a hidden location and infected them, unknowingly, even the teachers were hit.

　　Its behavior seemed random, but it was actually extremely covert and step by step.

　　If Li Yi Fei didn’t happen to bump into Liu Xiaoyan infecting the head teacher, perhaps after another half a year we won’t necessarily realize its existence, and by that time …… the infected will have increased to an extremely terrifying point.

　　After listening to Lin Qiye s analysis, Hong Ying and Si Xiaonan only felt their scalps tingle.

　　A mythical creature with such high intelligence, this is the first time I’ve seen it. Red Coma’s brows furrowed, According to you, it already knew we were coming and naturally wouldn’t stay here?

　　It’s most likely like this. Lin Qiye nodded helplessly.

　　Then …… what is that one over there? Si Xiaonan cocked his head and reached out to point to the end of the corridor.

　　Lin Qiye and Red Tassel froze and turned their heads to look at the same time, their pupils suddenly contracting!

　　Only to see that on the small balcony at the end of the corridor, a snake-tailed monster was coiled there, its pitch-black scales emanating a morose chill in the weak sunlight, and a pair of ghostly green eyes staring silently at the three.

　　Hiss hiss hiss–!

　　Scarlet snake letters spewed out, and the corners of its mouth curved up in an arc as if it was mocking.

　　Lin Qiye and Hongyao stayed for a moment, looked at each other, and without saying a word, they ran wildly towards the balcony!

　　Chase!!!

　　The snake-tailed monster raised its head high, opened its huge mouth, and hissed abruptly at the sky!

　　Hissing-!!!

　　Immediately after that, it slid down along the edge of the balcony at a surprisingly fast speed.

　　Almost the instant this hissing sound rang out, a burst of screams came from the distant classroom!

　　Lin Qiye jerked to a halt and looked up into the distance, the infected had stormed off!

　　Red Tassel gently leaped and flipped to the edge of the balcony, carrying her spear, she turned back to Lin Qiye and shouted:

　　You go protect the students, I’ll go after it!

　　As soon as the words left her mouth, she leapt down and disappeared into the balcony.

　　Lin Qiye braked sharply and reversed to run wildly towards the building.

　　With Red Tassel’s stance and realm, jumping from the fifth floor was no problem at all, but at his current level, jumping would be a lot of fun.

　　Lin Qiye carried the black box on his back and ran wildly on the road at high speed, along the way, many students screamed and ran around like headless flies, and in the distance, the roar of a monster faintly rang out.

　　Don’t run! Stay behind me! You can’t get out of the school now! Lin Qiye shouted.

　　Unfortunately, in the midst of a mass of panic, no one listened to him at all, as everyone was frantically running towards the school’s main gate, only to be blocked inside by an invisible barrier.

　　This was the [Unrestricted Airspace] that was designed to prevent the monster body and the infected from escaping.

　　Quiet! Quiet!

　　All listen to me ……

　　Lin Qiye shouted several times in a row, but still no one paid attention to him, and just then, the words of Leng Xuan before he came resurfaced in his ears.

　　And so.

　　Lin Qiye took out his pistol from his pocket.

　　Pulling the trigger at the sky!

　　When the sound of the gunshot echoed throughout the campus, those crazy students were confused.

　　Lin Qiye held the gun and aimed it at the statuesque students, lifting his chin expressionlessly.

　　I said, all be quiet!
