Strange Rules: It doesn't matter, the system will take care of it.

Chapter 18 Professor

The next morning.

Chen Feng followed his fellow dormitory student, a fake human, to the classroom on the second floor.

Pushing open the door, I didn't see the teacher with the goat head that the blond guy had mentioned.

"Were they killed by those three?"

With these thoughts in mind, Chen Feng walked to the desk in the corner.

On the desk were a book, a notebook, and a black ballpoint pen.

Chen Feng opened the book, which was full of classical Chinese texts and poems.

As for the notebook, Chen Feng opened it and found a note inside.

There was definitely a secret.

Upon closer inspection, Chen Feng discovered that it was actually a map of a school for treating internet addiction!

First, there's the internet addiction treatment building where Chen Feng is located. The third floor houses Professor Yang's office and electroshock room, the second floor has a canteen and classrooms, and the first floor has dormitories and bathrooms.

Behind the internet addiction treatment building is the solitary confinement cell, the small dark room where Chen Feng was previously held. Beyond the solitary confinement cell is the mental sanatorium, with a skull painted on it and a note below: "In an emergency, you may feign madness to enter, but no one who goes in has ever returned."

In Huang Mao's game evaluation system, Nurse Rabbit is called the big boss, which seems to make her even more dangerous than the academy.

In front of the internet addiction treatment building is a playground, and this playground is not simple. It is clearly stated that there is a ghost wall here at night, which cannot be passed through. You must get the key from Professor Yang's office to pass through.

Chen Feng immediately realized that this was exactly the same situation as the real and fake third floors of the Happiness Internet Cafe, and the key was the secret door.

Beyond the playground lies the academy gate, surrounded by high, electrified walls that are impossible to climb. Next to the gate is a security guardhouse with pig-headed figures, marked with a skull symbol to indicate that direct confrontation is not permitted.

"If we can't face the enemy head-on, then we can go around them from the side."

"You can't climb a wall that's electrified, but what if it's not electrified?"

Thinking about the power outage last night, Chen Feng guessed that the three people must have stolen the office key, cut off the school's power, and escaped by climbing over the wall.

"If they can do it, then I should be able to too."

Chen Feng pretended to read for a whole morning and then ate lunch.

In the afternoon, it was time for the physical training session supervised by the pig-headed man.

"Horse stance, hiccup! Horizontal strike."

"snort!"

"Pull inward, hiccup! Lower hook!"

"ha."

The pig-headed man is acting strangely today. He keeps burping and walking unsteadily, as if he's drunk.

After an hour, a tall, thin man wearing a white coat and sporting a goat's head walked in from the direction of the school gate.

Is this the legendary professor?

Chen Feng felt that with the goat-headed man's thin build, the pig-headed man could easily smash him into a meat patty with one punch. However, as the goat-headed man approached, the pig-headed man trembled all over and became very nervous.

That monster that causes earthquakes when it walks is actually afraid?

Professor Yang stretched out his hand, and a crackling sound rang out as a bolt of lightning shot out.

The pig-headed man trembled all over and was immediately electrocuted.

After reprimanding Instructor Pig, Professor Sheep glanced at the crowd and said in a kind tone, "Last night, two naughty kids tried to run away. I went to great lengths to prevent them from going astray, but they don't understand my good intentions."

two?

Aren't there three?

Chen Feng frowned, feeling a pang of worry for Li Guolong and his group.

Professor Yang clapped his hands and had the fake students bring in two people: "After criticism and education, I believe they have repented and will not be bad kids again."

Chen Feng recognized them at a glance: it was Huang Mao and Fatty. However, unlike them, they were expressionless and their smiles were blank, making them look exactly like those fake people.

They were all transformed into monsters!

Why are there only two people? Where is Li Guolong? Did he escape, or is he dead?

Too many questions were swirling in Chen Feng's mind.

But Professor Yang didn't explain any of this; instead, he strode away from the playground.

In the afternoon, after training.

Chen Feng immediately greeted the fat guy and the blond guy: "Hey, do you guys remember me?"

Both the blond-haired man and the fat man remained unmoved, their faces calm.

It seems that after turning into monsters, they have lost their humanity and memories.

Chen Feng tried to jog the other man's memory: "Yellow Hair! Wake up, have you forgotten that you wanted to escape and become a professional gamer?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Mao suddenly shuddered and finally reacted.

It seems to work!

Just as Chen Feng was about to continue, he heard Huang Mao raise his hand and report to Instructor Pig: "Going online is bad for kids."

Then Chen Feng was made to stand alone on the playground for another hour as punishment.

Dinner time.

Looking at the blond-haired and fat men who had been turned into fakes, Chen Feng had a new idea.

In the Mythical Three Kingdoms system, there is a blessing that can help them return to their original state.

Hua Tuo's protection: Qing Nang (a traditional Chinese medicine formula).

The "Qing Nang" refers to the cloth bag used by ancient doctors to store medical books. Legend has it that before being executed by Cao Cao, the legendary physician Hua Tuo filled a Qing Nang with medical books and gave it to a prison official. The book contained Hua Tuo's medical knowledge and was therefore called the "Qing Nang Jing" (The Classic of the Green Bag).

The protective effect of this herbal sachet can consume one point to completely heal a creature.

Chen Feng weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

Using the Qingnang (a type of medicine) to save people costs two points for each person. After saving them, you can learn why they failed to escape yesterday, and you may even gain the experience of Li Guolong's successful escape!

However, if you use these points to reload saves, you can save two people with one point and also get a new system as a bonus.

"Even though this will result in a loss of intelligence, I'll know why I failed when I act with them in my next reincarnation, right?"

For the next few days, Chen Feng lived his life in a routine manner.

Attending classes, physical training, going to bed early and waking up early.

To be fair, aside from the fact that the three meals a day are inedible, this place is not bad.

After all, given the dangerous nature of Cihang City, even if you escape, you might be caught in another similar hellish place. Take Happiness Internet Cafe for example, where you could be eaten as dessert by the female receptionist without warning.

"Just like a bird and a birdcage, the bird loses its freedom in the cage, but it also gains safety."

"As long as you follow the rules, at least you don't have to worry about dying at any moment."

As he pondered this, Chen Feng suddenly sensed something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Until one day, he saw the girl with glasses being transformed into a fake model student.

"That's strange, that guy didn't break any rules at all?"

"Not only did he not break any rules, but he also frequently reported other trainees' misconduct to the instructors. He's a model student, so how could he be punished?"

"Wait, role model!"

"Does this mean that if we always behave here, we'll be assimilated and turned into model students?"

Chen Feng recalled a movie, The Shawshank Redemption, which mentioned the concept of institutionalization.

Simply put, when a person first enters prison, he will hate prison, but slowly, he will get used to it, and eventually he will find that he cannot survive without prison.

This is called institutionalization.

Similarly, if one submits to the rules here, one can gradually become a monster.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng decisively slapped his right cheek to wake himself up.

"Wake up!"

"Don't forget, I was fucking locked up for seven days! A full seven days!"

Chen Feng secretly vowed to take revenge on these bastards.

That day arrived quickly.

A few nights later, a torrential downpour began.

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and Chen Feng, who had been dozing in the dormitory, opened his eyes, knowing it was time to cause a ruckus.

[Rain detected, summoning a water ghost... Summoning successful!]

As the footprints appeared out of thin air on the playground, the surrounding air suddenly dropped.

Chen Feng opened the dormitory door, pointed at his fake roommate, and gave the order:

"Old Shui, kill them."

"Yes, kill them all, leave no survivors."
