The Law of Killing

"Hey, want to team up?"

"Take me with you."

Zhang Kai listened to Wang Ye's calm voice and was stunned for a moment.

Was it the kid from the corner just now?

He didn't look away after all. He was indeed an interesting guy.

But...

"Now you know it's safe to stand by my side and keep a calm mindset. That's pretty good,"

Zhang Kai looked at him appreciatively and said.

"But in the end, you're just an ordinary person! In this situation, you can't do anything."

"If I were you, I would quietly go back to the corner. After all, no one can figure out the killing rules of this supernatural event. Being in a crowd at least reduces the death rate,"

It was rare for Zhang Kai to say so much to an ordinary person.

After all, it was rare for an ordinary person to remain so calm in the face of a supernatural event.

If he were an esper, he might really be able to help.

Zhang Kai couldn't help feeling regretful.

"First of all, as long as you figure out the ghost's killing rules, even ordinary people have a chance to survive, right?"

"And if there is really a crisis, I believe you will also need a cannon fodder to help you test the ghost's abilities,"

Wang Ye's expression did not change at all as he spoke calmly.

After all, he had seen too many supernatural events in his previous life.

But now his physique was inferior to that of his previous life after all. If it wasn't forced, Wang Ye really didn't want to get involved in this incident, let alone be Zhang Kai's so-called cannon fodder.

Zhang Kai's eyebrows were deeply furrowed as he looked seriously at the boy in front of him.

He didn't expect this boy to know so much about the supernatural that he even took the initiative to offer his help to test it out.

Zhang Kai fell into thought.

Just then, the air gradually became oppressive. The temperature in the entire school building dropped.

The classroom ceilings, which were rotten for some reason, were dripping red droplets that kept falling to the classroom floor.

"It looks like this ghost can alter the real environment."

"Magnetic field coverage unknown."

"Original position unknown."

"No one has died so far, rule out random killings for now."

"Killing method unknown."

"But based on the number of surviving students in the classroom, the killing efficiency is not high."

"Temporarily estimated as Level D, no objections right."

Wang Ye frowned slightly, sensing the temperature and environmental changes, subconsciously organizing data and information, and said slowly.

These habits were honed time and time again at knifepoint in his previous life.

Zhang Kai took a deep look at Wang Ye, his green eyes flickering, and no longer hesitated.

"Stay close to me."

After saying that, Zhang Kai pushed open the classroom door decisively and walked out.

As if he had guessed Zhang Kai would agree, Wang Ye's expression did not change. He silently followed Zhang Kai and maintained a distance of half a meter behind him.

The people in the classroom became even more panicked in the darkness.

The sobs grew louder until they finally broke down crying.

In the darkness, a strange smiling face emerged faintly on the wall at some point.

It looked as if it was painted with blood.

The corridor was also filled with darkness and fear permeated invisibly.

Many students and teachers from other classes rushed out to the corridor in panic, looking around everywhere.

"A bunch of trash,"

Zhang Kai seemed to have expected this scene and sneered, the green glow in his eyes became more vigorous as he kept looking around.

After a long time, Zhang Kai seemed to have determined his target and walked towards the stairs.

From beginning to end, Zhang Kai did not say another word to Wang Ye.

Wang Ye was full of mystery in Zhang Kai's eyes, but after all he was just an ordinary person. If he couldn't even keep up, the so-called help would become a joke.

In the darkness, Wang Ye could no longer see his surroundings clearly. The only light was the faint green glow in Zhang Kai's eyes.

But oddly...

No matter how crowded the people ahead, Wang Ye always seemed to sense it in advance, find gaps, and slip through, maintaining his position half a meter behind Zhang Kai.

However, Wang Ye's expression was no longer calm, slightly frowning.

In this situation, these students were still wandering around the corridor, making noises, even gathering together.

In Wang Ye's opinion, this was no different from seeking death.

The ghost's killing rules were still unknown. So many people gathering together, some were bound to meet the requirements.

If someone in the crowd died causing panic, it would only lead to greater chaos and more deaths.

If this ghost could grow stronger...

Then these people would be providing it nourishment invisibly, making containing it even more troublesome.

This was also why Zhang Kai called them trash and useless.

However, this kind of situation only occurred in the initial revival of the horror. In the era when Wang Ye died, it had improved a lot. Ordinary people also knew how to survive.

It's just...

This was achieved through countless bloody lessons.

Of course, Wang Ye believed the main reason was that those idiots had already died.

Of those who experienced supernatural events again and again and still survived, most had some brains.

Soon, Zhang Kai stepped past the crowd and stood at the entrance to the stairs.

The stairs had disappeared somehow, leaving only darkness.

It was as if taking another step forward would plunge into endless abyss.

Seeing the scene before him, Zhang Kai frowned slightly, and the green glow in his eyes flashed again.

But his face also turned a little pale soon after.

"I suggest you don't use your abilities too frequently,"

"Doing so will only accelerate the decay of your bodily functions,"

"After all, even ordinary people can think of solutions in this situation."

Wang Ye's voice sounded faintly behind Zhang Kai.

Zhang Kai was startled and looked back.

He found that Wang Ye was still able to follow precisely half a meter behind him even in the dark. He subconsciously took Wang Ye's words more seriously.

Wang Ye had become a little more mysterious in his heart as well.

"The source cannot be confirmed now."

"My abilities can trace some trails."

"But it stopped here."

"What do you think we should do?"

Even Zhang Kai himself didn't realize when he had started consulting Wang Ye's opinion.

"Ghosts can alter magnetic fields and affect reality."

"We don't know if the stairs are altered by the magnetic field or just an illusion."

"If it's just an illusion, it means the ghost's level is not high."

"But if the stairs really disappeared, then this supernatural event will be more troublesome."

Wang Ye said thoughtfully.

"The test method is simple. The magnetic field formed by ghosts can alter and invade almost everything."

"But one thing doesn't work."

Zhang Kai pondered for a moment, as if grasping Wang Ye's intention.

"You mean...gold?"
