I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 85 Even monsters have to work honestly.
after an hour.

In the central atrium connecting the buildings, after organizing the details she had observed, Yang Chan said to Cao Yu:

“Cousin, all the students and teachers here are wearing badges, and they're all pinned up in front of their chests. They haven't even taken them off during breaks... Isn't this a bit too formal?”

"Hmm...it's probably a strict rule. After all, it's an academy that adopts military-style management."

Cao Yu answered somewhat absentmindedly.

Seeing this, Yang Chan asked curiously, "Cousin, what are you thinking about?"

"The content taught in this academy is quite similar to what I learned in the Fourth Academy."

Cao Yu seemed to be deep in thought and said:

"While it doesn't teach as comprehensively as the four academies, it genuinely teaches survival skills here, not some kind of evolutionary experiment as we might imagine..."

“Cousin, we can’t draw conclusions after just one hour of observation, can we?” Yang Chan reminded him. “To find any abnormal lessons, we’ll probably have to observe for a whole day.”

“Observing someone all day might not be useful,” Cao Yu said. “Even if there are so-called 'special courses,' who can guarantee they will be conducted every day? So…”

He decided:

"We still need to interact with people. Luckily, it's lunchtime now; the students' classes and training are over, and they have two hours of free time. Our chance has come..."

At this point, Cao Yu suddenly paused and looked towards the front of the corridor.

Yang Chan followed his gaze and saw a man in camouflage walking slowly towards her from a distance.

Camouflage uniforms... According to the information they gathered, those wearing such uniforms in the academy are all teachers.

"Cousin, go and splash him with dirty water," Cao Yu said to Yang Chan in a low voice.

"..."

Yang Chan obeyed the order.

Although it was unclear what Cao Yu was planning, the fact that a lone teacher had approached was undoubtedly a good opportunity to test the waters.

She quickly went to the storage room inside the building at the back, took out a mop from the cleaning tools, went to the public restroom to wet it, and then returned to the corridor.

At this moment, the man in camouflage opposite Cao Yu was getting close.

Seeing this, Yang Chan pretended to walk by normally, then "accidentally" slipped and fell to the ground. The mop in her hand "accidentally" swung up, and the mop end hit the man in camouflage, splashing him with dirty water.

"What are you doing!" the man exclaimed, enraged.

Cao Yu immediately stepped forward to comfort him:
"I'm sorry, my cousin is a new cleaner, she's a bit clumsy."

"Since you're cleaners, you'd better stay in the guardhouse! Just be on time for your shifts." The man demanded, "Who gave you permission to wander around?"

"Teacher, we need to familiarize ourselves with the academy environment first, otherwise how can we work efficiently?"

Cao Yu maintained his smile and suggested:

"Teacher, your clothes got dirty by my cousin. Take them off first, and I'll take them to wash them and bring them back to you later."

"Hmph... Remember to wash me clean!" the man said in a very unfriendly tone.

He did not refuse Cao Yu's offer to help him take off his clothes.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cao Yu removed the "teacher's work permit" hanging around the man's neck.

Just then, something unexpected happened!

After the work ID was removed, the man's body instantly began to contort, his muscles writhing like worms, and his previously irritated expression turned into a sinister smile.

Cao Yu withdrew his hand and took a few steps back.

He looked down at his right hand—his right hand had become semi-transparent at some point, and this transparency was still spreading.

Cao Yu immediately activated the "Immortal Slaying Curse" to cover his entire body.

Transparency is ongoing and has not stopped.

This indicates that the attack's power has already begun to take effect within his body, constituting a "completed attack," which the "Immortal Slaying Curse" can no longer block.

Cao Yu remained calm.

Although the injury was bizarre, he could have used the "Life-Slaying Curse" to sever the "injured future" and return to normal.

However, the consumption was too great, far less effective than... *splat!* Cao Yu directly severed his right hand from his wrist, stopping the spread of the invisibility.

At the same time, he summoned Xiao Qi and gave her an order.

Xiao Qi swung his sickle, cleaving the camouflage-clad man, whose body was still expanding, in two.

As a result... the man's body, which had been cut in two, disappeared before it even hit the ground.

Soon, the man in camouflage reappeared, perfectly still, with a strange smile on his face.

Like the spirit monsters in the abandoned city, he would respawn after death.

He stretched out his arms like a rubber man, reaching out to grab Cao Yu and Yang Chan respectively.

Yang Chan had already summoned the calico cat and activated "White Flower," creating a defensive barrier to block the attack.

Cao Yu then covered his entire body with the "Immortal-Slaying Spell," using his body to continuously cleave through the strange, transparent power attacks, slicing through the camouflage-clad man's extended arm, and arriving in front of him. He then quickly slipped the "Teacher's ID" around the man's neck.

At that moment, the man stopped attacking.

Its outstretched arms retracted, its body began to return to normal, and it quickly returned to its original state.

Everything calmed down.

The man looked at Cao Yu with a puzzled and surprised expression and asked, "Your hand... how did it get broken?"

"Oh, just chopping for fun." Cao Yu grinned. "I just thought about it, and suddenly I don't want to wash your dirty clothes anymore. You can take them back and wash them yourself."

"you……"

The man wanted to scold him.

However, seeing that Cao Yu's smile seemed malicious, he had no choice but to hold back.

When faced with a madman who dares to chop off his own hand for fun... just bear with it.

The man left quickly.

After he had gone some distance, he muttered under his breath:
"How could the dean hire a madman as a cleaner... What bad luck..."

At this moment, Yang Chan had already moved close to Cao Yu and activated "Orange Blossom".

When the orange light enveloped Cao Yu, his severed right hand was instantly restored.

Cao Yu was somewhat moved; his little sister's healing ability was truly outrageous... The mental energy he had just used to activate the "Immortal Slaying Curse" was also restored.

If it weren't for his little sister, he probably would have had to obediently switch to the "Blood Wind Unmelting Bone" to heal his wounds... No, without his little sister, he wouldn't have chosen to cut off his hand; he would probably have directly severed his future.

After Yang Chan finished treating the patient, she stopped using her superpowers.

She said in a slightly reproachful tone:
"Cousin, you didn't need to cut off your own hand just now. My healing has a built-in purification effect and can restore you directly."

"Oh, it's just an instinctive reaction," Cao Yu laughed. "It's my first time doing a dungeon with you, I'm not used to it yet."

"All right……"

Yang Chan didn't dwell on the matter too much, but simply frowned and said:
"I never imagined the teachers at this college would actually be monsters... Cousin, your joke from before came true. But, it seems the work permits suppress their monstrous nature and make them normal?"

"Don't jump to conclusions yet," Cao Yu said. "How can you conduct a sampling survey by only sampling one person? Let's try sampling a few more. By the way, cousin, you can take this prop for now."

As he spoke, he took out the D-level item "Deadly Evil Flame" from his storage space and handed it to Yang Chan.

This is the item he inherited after killing the wanted criminal Chen Jian... When a player kills another player, they can randomly inherit one item from the other player's item inventory.

When Chen Jian fought him, he used the "Deadly Evil Flame," which he happened to inherit... This Chen Jian might be a penniless guy, and he probably only has this one item on him.

On the other side, Yang Chan took the prop and looked at the effect description—it could summon a special sea of ​​fire, arouse people's desires and evil fire, deprive them of their essence and energy, and ruin their physical strength... She shook her head slightly and returned the prop to Cao Yu.

"Disgusted?" Cao Yu laughed. "Props are props, and wanted criminals are wanted criminals. We still need to distinguish between them."

“Cousin, I’m not that delicate,” Yang Chan explained. “While D-grade items are powerful, they also consume a lot of energy. If I use a D-grade item to attack while activating my superpower, I’ll probably only have a very short time to fight. It’s better to use an E-grade item, which consumes less energy.”

"Hmm... given your superpowers, low-cost items are indeed suitable."

Cao Yu stopped dwelling on it and said:
"let's go."

……

Next, the two spent about half an hour finding other teachers and students to test what would happen after snatching the documents.

As a result... after removing the teachers' identification, all the teachers turned into the same type of monster, able to freely manipulate their bodies to extend and shorten, becoming rubber-like beings, and also able to make anything they touched transparent.

When the students' ID cards were removed, they would simply disappear... With Yang Chan's enhancement, Cao Yu saw through his spiritual vision that the students had not actually disappeared, but had instead transformed into spirit monsters.

It took him considerable effort, despite the attacks, to put the ID back on the student.

The mutated students were thus restored to their original state.

Cao Yu did not continue to probe what would happen if the documents were continuously confiscated.

Because... although he didn't directly attack teachers and students in their normal state, his repeated "extortionate" behavior seemed to be gradually being judged as an attack. This caused the space around him to begin to distort, generating a repulsive force.

He realized that if he continued to cause trouble, he might be expelled from the academy.

At that point, he will most likely return to the abandoned city and face countless monster attacks.

Cao Yu had no choice but to halt his more aggressive actions.

This adventurous exploration yielded excellent results—after confirming that both the teacher and the student were monsters, his and Yang Chan's player panels popped up, triggering a side quest.

Side Quest: Investigate the Hidden Truth Within the Dungeon

Cao Yu and Yang Chan found a corner and began to summarize the intelligence.

“Cousin, the transparency ability that the teachers here exhibited after their mutations reminded me of the rat monsters I encountered when I was escaping in the abandoned city.”

Yang Chan recalled as she spoke:
"Those translucent rats that crawl along shouting 'You can't see me!' and make everything they touch disappear. And..."
