Chapter 404 The scholar's stipend has arrived, yet he's still so stingy?Pei Hening found herself in a dead end, with a high wall in front of her and the strange, relentlessly pursuing mass of matter behind her, leaving her in a dilemma.She turned her head, swallowed nervously, and stared intently at the strange mass of matter rushing towards her. Pei Hening gripped the iron chain in her hand and yanked it away as it drew near."Splat—"The strange substance was slammed against the wall and instantly split into countless clones.Pei Hening's trypophobia was about to flare up. She noticed that these clones were all wriggling in one direction, seemingly trying to reassemble into one. She paused in her attempt to escape, took out a can of gasoline from her backpack, and poured it on the clones. She moved away from these ghostly things before taking out a lighter, lighting it, and using the flame, throwing the lighter into the oil pile among the eerie clones.With a short, loud bang, flames erupted from the strange substances, and sparks could be seen flying everywhere.efficient?Pei Hening thought he had found a way to deal with this monster, but the next second, a huge fireball rose up from the ground.Very well, not only did it not solve this big problem, it even enchanted this thing.Pei Hening was so ashamed of her own stupidity that she wanted to cry."Beep beep beep, what are you doing? Run!"Pingyuan peered anxiously from the rooftop of a small two-story building not far away.Pei Hening glanced at her, then looked away. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but the fireball seemed to have shrunk a little.Ping Yuan noticed Pei Hening's actions, her beautiful brows furrowing tightly. What's wrong with this guy? Why doesn't he take such a good opportunity to escape?Ping Yuan still felt lingering fear when she recalled the suffocating feeling she had when that ghostly thing clung to her.If it weren't for the fact that Pei Hening had saved her life, she wouldn't have bothered to take the long way to help her, even though she hadn't been able to yet."Beep beep beep, don't hesitate, hurry up and come over. You don't have any points, so I won't lay a hand on you."Pei Hening heard it; she heard it with both ears.Pingyuan came specifically to find her, definitely not for points, since she didn't have a single point in her pocket, so killing her would be pointless.Pei Hening took another can of gasoline from his backpack and poured it on the fireball without hesitation.It worked, but it angered it.As the giant fireball hurtled toward her, Pei Hening's legs were about to swing out of the fire ring.Pingyuan noticed what was happening over there, hesitated for a moment, then took out a pair of brand-new little red shoes and threw them at Pei Hening: "Catch!"Thanks!Pei Hening grabbed the little red shoes, bent down and put them on. These little red shoes had a speed buff and were not countered by the dungeon. In no time, she had created distance between herself and the big fireball.Pingyuan saw from afar that she was about to escape the fireball, then turned and left.She would rather die than be entangled with that monstrous thing again and experience that suffocating feeling.No sooner had Pingyuan left than the fireball that had been relentlessly chasing Pei Hening was burned away.With a clatter, a golden hand-held mirror suddenly fell to the ground.Pei Hening walked over, looked down at the golden hand-held mirror that had fallen to the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then picked it up. The mirror was broken and couldn't reflect anyone's image.On the referee's platform in the arena, a group of teachers were staring at Pei Hening's screen."Pfft, Detective, does that thing look familiar?"Richard's schadenfreude was very obvious.Caiyuan suppressed her laughter before slowly offering the detective a way out: "Richard, that's enough."Fumi wasn't so polite. She chuckled and said, "Lu En, look at the mirror that the junior student is holding. Doesn't it have the aura of the dungeon's core?"Shuxiao, always eager for drama, leaned back in her chair and slowly added fuel to the fire: "Lu En has no right to speak, Detective, you should say it."Seeing the gloating of the crowd, the detective casually twirled the carving knife in his hand, saying, "It's just half of the core authority of the dungeon."Richard's gaze fell on the bottle of wine on the detective's table. "So generous, can't you stop taking his wine?"Perhaps Richard's resentment was too strong, for the detective glanced at him and said, "Didn't your scholarship money arrive? Why are you still so stingy?"Richard's face darkened. How did the detective know that his scholar's allowance had been deposited into his account?Rune asked, "Detective, do we still need to modify the copy permissions?"The detective put away the carving knife: "Hmm, I'll make the changes."Chi Lu looked towards the arena entrance and saw someone coming through the barrier.
