I am practicing in a weird world

　If no one broke the rules, things would probably be much worse, but she didn't want to be the first one to break the rules.

　After all, this is a matter that could cost lives.

　She looked at those who had not yet expressed their opinions. There were several people who had not yet expressed their opinions, and Xiao Yi was one of them.

　In addition to Xiao Yi, there were two other people who did not express their opinions. One of them was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. He had a cigarette in his mouth and an arrogant look on his face. He had never participated in the discussion.

　The other person was a woman who looked to be in her thirties. She was wearing sportswear suitable for exercise and had no makeup on. She also remained silent.

　There are some other people.

　Xiao Yi stared at the scar in his hand without saying a word.

　The others were silent as they were all thinking about the interests involved.

　Seeing that no one responded to her, the woman in the cloak stomped her feet and stopped talking.

　Soon, the time of twelve thirty arrived.

　"Boom boom boom!"

　Three knocks were heard from the door.

　It’s the third grade, and the teacher is here to check the dormitories.

　Everyone looked at each other, then Zhao Nanzhong came over and opened the door.

　There was a complete stranger outside the door, a woman with silver hair.

　The woman was wearing a pitch-black dress, and the shadow behind her kept rolling, sometimes changing into the shape of an uncle, sometimes into the shape of bones, sometimes into the shape of a cat, sometimes into the shape of an eagle, and sometimes into the shape of a wolf...

　Its changes are numerous and far more bizarre than those of the forest spirit bird and the moth woman burned by flames.

　The woman's hair was gray, dry and split, looking like an old person's hair, but her face was that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old, appearing fair and delicate.

　It gives people a weird feeling of disharmony.

　The white-haired woman entered the dormitory. She glanced around and said, "Everyone is here. That's good. It means no one among you will die. After I leave, no one will come to check on you until lunch break is over.

　Here is a piece of advice for you: only this room is safe here. If you walk out of this room or put anything into this room, then you will be in trouble. "

　After saying that, the white-haired woman turned and left.

　The young man with the cigarette in his mouth looked at the white-haired woman's back. After the white-haired woman completely left, he said, "This person is a believer of the moth. Her words cannot be trusted."

　No one around responded.

　Through the conversation just now, everyone has vaguely formed their own circles. Those who advocate abiding by the rules are one circle, and those who hold other opinions are another circle. This young man had been silent just now, but suddenly spoke at this moment, and his words did not contain any substantial content, so no one responded at all.

　Zhao Nanzhong closed the door.

　Thanks to @不内鬼 for the monthly ticket

　Volume 1: Chapter 508: Reflections and Non-Existent Things

　Some people were sleeping, while others were sitting cross-legged on their beds, waiting for the lunch break to be over.

　"Boom!"

　Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came from outside the door: "Open the door, check the dormitory."

　No one moved inside the dormitory.

　"Dong dong!"

　There were two more knocks on the door.

　Inside the dormitory, no one paid any attention.

　"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

　Suddenly, the knocking turned into banging on the door.

　An extremely loud sound erupted, as if a huge hammer was constantly hammering on the door.

　If it were an ordinary door, it would have been destroyed instantly after being attacked so violently. However, this door, which looked like an unreliable wooden door, did not move at all, no matter how loud the noise outside was, it remained as still as a mountain.

　Xiao Yi stood up and walked towards the window.

　The windows here are the kind that cannot be opened. They are not made of glass, but oil paper.

　Through the thin oil paper, he saw the reflection of something outside the door. It was the firelight in the corridor shining on the object, and the shadow reflected in the window was an extremely blurry shadow, looking like smoke, not a human figure.

　After banging on the door for a while, the sound stopped.

　A voice came from outside the door. The voice was dry and hoarse, and sounded like the sound of steel rubbing against each other.

　It said: "Do you think you can get out of here by following the rules? You have been deceived by the rules. Following the rules will only lead to your death. First, the first scar, then the second, and then death."

　Hearing this, the expressions on everyone's faces changed.

　This statement hit the nail on the head about everyone's concerns.

　At this moment, the cloaked woman struggled for a moment, as if she had made up her mind. She asked, "What are scars, and why did they suddenly appear on our bodies?"

　When they heard the cloaked woman's voice, everyone else immediately looked at the skinned woman, and some even began to move away from the cloaked woman.

　Rule three: Only people can talk, never talk to other things.

　At this moment, the cloaked woman has violated rule three. God knows how the cloaked woman will die then. It will be bad if the distance is too close and she is affected.

　However, nothing happened to the woman in the cloak.

　There was no sudden flame coming out of her body, and nothing came in to kill her, so she was just here fine.

　There is nothing wrong with breaking the rules.

　Is there nothing happening now, or will there be something happening later?

　The expressions on everyone's faces changed again.

　"hey-hey."

　A strange laugh came from outside the door, and someone said, "Scars are the signs of your transformation. The rules are the hammer, and the rules are the furnace. You have accepted the beating of the hammer and the burning of the furnace, and naturally marks will be left on your body. Every time you are beaten, you will have one more mark on your body until you die, or are completely transformed into something other than a human, just like me.

　I'm reminding you out of kindness, not wanting you to become like me. If you become like me, you won't be able to leave here and will be trapped here forever."

　"How can we leave here?" asked the cloaked woman.

　“It’s easy, you can leave after school.

　"But you won't be able to wait until school is over. Before that, you will die or turn into something else and never be able to get out." said the voice outside.

　"Who exactly are those invigilators and teachers, and why are they so powerful?" asked the cloaked woman.

　"They are not human." said the voice outside the door.

　"If it's not a human, then what is it? Is it an immortal who has achieved immortality?" asked the cloaked woman.

　According to common logic, people who have achieved immortality can no longer be considered human beings. After all, it is impossible for humans to be immortal.

　"I don't know what they are exactly. I just know that they are not human, nor are they immortals. Maybe they don't exist at all." said the voice outside the door.

　"It doesn't exist, what does that mean?"

　Confusion crossed the cloaked woman's face.

　Those three invigilators clearly existed there, could be touched, accepted bribes, and could kill people. Why do you say they don't exist?

　"If it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. There have never been these three people. It's just an illusion, an illusion created by the distortion of light." said the voice outside the door.

　"How is this possible? These three people can be touched, have rationality, accept bribes, and kill people. How can this be an illusion?"

　A look of disbelief appeared on the cloaked woman's face.

　She knew about hallucinations. If one was too obsessed with the power of the lamp of the soul, one would fall into hallucinations. But those were all illusions that would make people unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, but they would not make people be burned to ashes by the flames.

　"In this place, hallucinations kill people." said the voice outside the door.

　"Where exactly is this place? We entered the Spider Gate and headed for the legendary Hammering Ground. Why did we end up here?" the cloaked woman asked again.

　"This is the training ground." said the voice outside the door.

　"How is this possible? According to records, anyone who enters the Hammering Field will receive a generous reward. Not only did we not receive a generous reward, we also encountered fatal danger."

　A look of disbelief appeared on the cloaked woman's face again.

　"This is inside the Spider Gate. You have also seen the huge glow like the sun. That is the God's Daytime Furnace. It is extremely hot here and is filled with the glow of flames. You say, if this is not a forging ground, then what place could it be?" said the person outside the door.

　The voice outside the door asked, "Where do you think you are now?"

　"It's in a very large room. There are beds and quilts in it, exactly the same number as our number. According to the rules, this is a student dormitory and a place for lunch break." said the woman in the cloak.

　"Hahahahahaha."

　The voice outside the door suddenly burst into laughter, as if it had heard something very ridiculous.

　"What are you laughing at?" the cloaked woman asked hurriedly.

　"Room, dormitory, you actually call this a room, it's ridiculous, don't you think about it, how can a shabby room block my entry?"

　There was a sound of laughter outside the door.

　"You have been deceived by your eyes. Let me tell you where you are. You are..."

　Suddenly, the sound stopped here.

　The sudden stop sounded like a duck that had been quacking continuously had its neck suddenly strangled by a huge force, and could no longer make any sound.

　"What happened? What's wrong with you?" the cloaked woman asked hurriedly.

　There was no response from the voice outside the door.

　At the window, you can see the reflection struggling violently, as if something is pinching its neck, but there is no other reflection in the window.

　The scene looked like the thing outside the door was being pinched by the neck by something that didn't exist, so that it couldn't make any sound and could only struggle continuously, which looked extremely weird.

　Volume 1: Chapter 509 Outside

　The next moment, the shadow began to move away, as if being dragged away by something.

　Everyone looked at the cloaked woman, who still showed no signs of being attacked.

　"You broke the rules, why nothing happened?" someone asked.

　"It seems I guessed right."

　The cloaked woman breathed a sigh of relief, letting go of the worry that had been weighing on her mind.

　She said, "The teacher who checked the dorm said that this is the only safe room. I think as long as I don't open the door and don't put anything from outside in, I should be safe."

　After hearing what the cloaked woman said, people recalled what the strange dormitory checking teacher had said, and then found that the teacher had indeed said this.

　The original words were: Here, I'm giving you a piece of advice. Only this room is safe here. If you walk out of this room or put anything into this room, then you're on your own.

　"How much do you believe what the voice at the door said?"

　Dai Wei looked at everyone and asked for their opinions.

　Everyone recalled what the strange man outside the door said.

　I have talked a lot about the weirdness outside the door, and I can summarize it in the following points.

　First point: Rules are the hammer, rules are the furnace, scars are how people are changed

　To obey the rules is to accept the hammer and the furnace, and scars will naturally be left on your body. If you continue to obey the rules, you will die or become something else and be trapped here forever.

　The second point: you can leave after school, but it doesn’t think that people here can stick around until school is over.

　The third point: The invigilators and others are not human beings, they are non-existent things, and are visual illusions caused by light distortion.

　Fourth point: The forging grounds here are the residence of the god’s Daytime Forge.

　Fifth point: The dormitory where everyone lives is actually not a dormitory. As for what it is, it has not yet been explained.

　"Is there any need to say this? First, rule out the fourth and third points." Zhao Nanzhong said.

　"Why exclude these two points?" asked the man in his fifties.

　"Because these two points are useless to us, it doesn't matter to us whether this is the residence of the Dayforge or not.

　"It doesn't matter to us whether the invigilator is human or not. We just need to understand that the invigilator has the power to kill us in an instant. It doesn't matter what they are." Zhao Nanzhong said.

　He continued, "Although the first and second points are important, they are not the most urgent matters. We can put them aside for now. The most urgent matter right now is, what exactly is the dormitory we are living in? Is it truly safe?"

　Speaking of this topic, everyone immediately remembered the last words spoken by the voice outside the door, as well as its loud laughter as if it had heard something funny.

　At this moment, a chill rose in people's hearts.
