Chapter 184: Chapter 184

This headbutt was so reckless that Yi Chen’s own forehead cracked open.

The front of Teacher Fang’s face caved in completely, the shattered bones even piercing into the brain, but still, it didn’t cause death… Just like Moon Scar’s guess, the opponent’s weakness wasn’t the organs, but the fundamental iron chains within.

Taking advantage of the ‘intimate contact’ provided by the headbutt,

Yi Chen buried his face into the recess of the other’s visage… to be exact, he probed into Teacher Fang’s skull, conducting ‘internal spying’ with the vision provided by the small grape. And what he saw was shocking.

Teacher Fang’s body was not human at all,

Iron chains, gears, and all sorts of bearings, it was completely a metal life encased in blood and flesh, it was even the living core of the Art Hall.

the internal spying quickly found Teacher Fang’s true core.

The metallic spine snapped into two pieces,

From within the column’s core, a fluid resembling marrow but with a metallic sheen flowed out.

Yi Chen didn’t hesitate, he immediately caught it with his mouth, sucking up the liquid beneficial to his body until it was gone.

This piping hot energy also helped to repair his physical injuries, especially the pierced throat that made breathing difficult… The internal chain system within his body was thus fortified.

Having done all this, Yi Chen could no longer hold on, and his body fell backwards, landing heavily in the shape of a sprawled ‘X’.

Three hours of intensive dance practice, the extreme pain from the iron chains piercing through his entire body and the needle stings, the growth of his physique and the final fierce fight with Teacher Fang.

All the night’s events had drained his physical stamina; now he just wanted to sleep well.

A prompt from the gambling game rang out:

“Complete Shaper Fang Qiong has been confirmed dead, [Deadly Gambling Hall – Art Hall] lockdown released, participants each receive 20 points and a hidden reward – ‘Suffering Monastery’s Chains’.

Note: This chain is a real-world reward and is also effective in the gambling game.”

These words made the drowsy Yi Chen instantly wake up, “What! A real-world reward? Has my true body physically combined with these iron chains?

During the battle, there seemed to be a prompt for increased physique. Has my plant disease undergone a fundamental “transmutation,” turning into a brand-new iron chain system?”

Being in the middle of the gambling game, Yi Chen couldn’t monitor his physical information.

At that moment, an announcement suddenly came from the restored Art Hall, or rather, broadcasts in different areas of the Orphanage were sounding at this time.

“All students still wandering outside, please take note, there are only fifteen minutes left before it’s [Late Sleep Time]. Please return to your dorms and fall asleep before the countdown ends.

Otherwise, the night watch teachers will be very unhappy.”

The words “night watch teachers” plunged Yi Chen back into a set of unpleasant memories as he forced his tired body to stand up from the ground.

Lorrian had just completed his own surgery, and due to partial bone joints destroyed by iron chains, his movements were still impeded.

“We need to hurry back; in our current state, we must get a good sleep, as being targeted by the night watch teacher could really lead to death.”

Yi Chen used the iron chains to secure Moon Scar to his back, pushed his physical limits, and ran full speed back to the dormitory.

Arriving at the dormitory door with five minutes to spare,

Two dice hung on the doorknob with a thin string, and tonight’s sleep still required Rolling Dice to decide the level of difficulty.

A moderate roll, as the two stepped into the dorm, they could distinctly sense something lurking in the depths of the corridor.

Yi Chen couldn’t bother with that now; he laid straight down on the bed to sleep. His body was in dire need of rest to recuperate and solidify.

Lorrian, due to his injuries, sat by the window, stitching up his wounds.

Before they knew it, sleep time—[11:00]—had arrived, and Lorrian was still sewing up his own body, utterly disregarding the issue with the night watch teacher.

With the entry of a sinister aura, the night watch teacher, holding a lantern in its mouth and resembling a reptile, was already crawling on the dorm’s ceiling.
