[R18] Global College Entrance Examination – “Global College Entrance Examination” Chapter 84 [English]

☆, Chapter 84 Challenge

The two guests… no, the two gangsters threatened people without any psychological burden. The witch doctor even had the illusion that “actually I am kind and helpless.”

Those animals were brought by him to be bled as sacrifices, and he never expected that they would be put to such use.

He can replace all kinds of bodies, and men, women, old and young can endure it. He can be put back together after being chopped into pieces…but the beast can’t, not even the beast that is dying and moldy in the dungeon.

This is more useful than any threat.

The witch doctor answered almost every question under the pig’s gaze.

From he’s mouth, You Huo and Qin Zhu learned the general story of the matter——

There was indeed an outbreak of the real Black Death in the Calton Hill area. The disease spread with such force that almost no one in the huge castle was spared.The Duchess was weak and died within two days.

As the person closest to her, the Duke was also very serious and only lasted two days longer than she.

Then came the male and female servants.

Butler Douglas was the one who persisted the longest. He led people to clean up the dead servants and sealed the coffins for the Duke and Lady.

The day before the burial, the witch doctor came to the castle.

At that time, the witch doctor had not yet borrowed his body from the nun. He was hiding in the previous body, looking very old and swaying every step he took.

Such a man, who seemed to be dying at any time, said to Douglas: “I can bring your lord and lady back to life.”

“Find a pair of people who are similar to us, the more similar the better.”

“Appearance and identity are secondary, and the most important thing is heart and soul.”

The witch doctor said to Douglas.

After giving hope, he added a reminder: “The process of resurrection is a little bloody, but it is a sacred ceremony. As the person who resurrects them, you need to be willing to sacrifice yourself.”

Douglas said, “Okay.”

Late that night, he deceived a couple who were passing by, knocked them unconscious and dragged them into the bedroom.

Then he pried open the coffin prepared for burial and brought back the Duke and his wife.

He chopped off the Duke’s head, limbs, chest and waist in the silent and empty bedroom, and then pieced them together.Candle oil dripped along the edge of the knife and condensed into a milky white film.

He drank a few glasses of wine, sat on the floor for a while under the gaze of the witch doctor, and then chopped Alyssa into pieces according to the gourd’s pattern.

White candles were placed in a circle around them.

The witch doctor pointed to the two unlucky passers-by and asked Douglas: “Okay, there is only one last step left. Let me confirm with you again, are these two poor people you are looking for really similar to the Duke and Duchess? If they don’t, you won’t succeed.”

Douglas half-knelt in front of the passers-by and his wife, and poured wine on them to wake them up.

He turned his back to the witch doctor and said without looking back: “It’s very similar, they are very loving.”

Amid the collapse and cries of the passers-by couple, Douglas stretched out his hand and placed it on the couple’s head.

…

The Duke rose from the dead that night.

The rotten parts of his limbs were replaced with the body of the passerby, including most of his face that was covered in sores.

The moment he opened his eyes, the young butler Douglas aged at a speed visible to the naked eye and became an old man in an instant.

Everything is as the witch doctor said…

Unfortunately, the Duchess’s resurrection failed.

***

The witch doctor licked his lips and said, “I still remember the expression on the Duke’s face at that time. Next to him was his wife who was chopped into pieces. In the mirror was his own face that he pieced together. The ground was covered in blood. Next to him was an old butler who was completely unfamiliar… Tsk.”

he glanced sideways at the old butler who was also tied up and said: “You are the most ruthless person I have ever seen. The first time I tried to save myself from death, I was not as straightforward as you. I even shed a few crocodile tears.”

“But the Duke also surprised me.”

In the eyes of the witch doctor, the castle is full of talented people.

The housekeeper chops people like melons and vegetables, without any burden at all.The resurrected Duke only panicked for a few minutes before accepting everything calmly.

The witch doctor said that there were too many servants in the castle and it would be too troublesome to resurrect them one by one.He has a way of allowing them to continue to exist, neither alive nor dead, like ghosts trapped in a castle guarded for life.

The Duke expressed his gratitude to him.

The witch doctor then asked, “What should you do with your wife? Bury her again?”

The Duke found a large wooden box and instructed Douglas to put Alyssa in it, and replied: “It doesn’t matter, I can invite some guests from time to time…”

“If we are a couple or a couple, just like Alyssa and I.” The Duke said, “I have enough patience to wait. Douglas will always be with me, right?”

Douglas echoed: “I am always here to find the most suitable and loving guests for you.”

The master and servant are surprisingly compatible.

When the witch doctor suggested that “resurrection and continuous replacement of bodies will be cursed and the flesh and blood will be lost,” they did not hesitate to take aim at the town on the back of Calton Mountain.

***

“How is the curse transferred?” Youhuo clamped the opponent’s wrist.

The witch doctor hesitated and didn’t want to say anything. He struggled with You Huo with his fingers, trying to shrink back a little, at least an inch further away from the pig.However, no matter how hard he tried, the opponent was always as steady as a rock.

The witch doctor’s face turned red.

“How can you bear to be so cruel to a woman?” He asked You Huo against the nun’s skin.

You Huo was indifferent: “It can be more cruel.”

The witch doctor was furious.

He took advantage of You Huo’s closeness and stared into You Huo’s eyes, hard and soft, and tried to seduce You Huo: “This beautiful gentleman, actually I have a lot more – ugh!”

Halfway through his words, Qin Zhu pressed his knee on his back.

The witch doctor collapsed and kissed the pig on the spot.

“…”

Qin Jiu glanced at You Huo, lowered his head to threaten the witch doctor without smiling, and said, “I gave the ecstasy soup to the wrong person. Can’t you see that this beautiful gentleman is very impatient now? But compared to him, I’m a bit worse.”

he’s deep voice sounded in the witch doctor’s ears, like a devil: “I have no problem chopping up a pig, and I have no problem chopping you up. If you are always so uncooperative, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to catch a whole pig. I can’t wait to give you a head.”

“You can also fight with pigs and sheep.”

Witch doctor: “…”

The handsome gentleman sang along with the devil and said coldly: “Choose one of three, I’ll give you three seconds to think about it.”

The witch doctor thought he had encountered a pervert.

“3.”

“2.”

The witch doctor immediately said: “I rely on food and wine.”

“The food and wine prepared by the Duke for the townspeople are all media. Eating these things is equivalent to committing to self-sacrifice. The more you eat, the deeper the bondage will be, and the sooner you will be cursed.”

“Food and wine?”

Youhuo suddenly remembered Zhou Qi’s reaction when he couldn’t eat and suddenly had a fever. He turned around and asked the housekeeper: “Is this what the castle provides to guests?”

Douglas remained silent, apparently in acquiescence.

The witch doctor interjected: “Of course, the guests we finally deceived, even if the Duke doesn’t use your bodies, he can use you to block part of the curse, so why waste it?”

You Huo and Qin Zhu looked at each other and frowned in unison.

You can’t dwell on this.

If the curse extends not only to the town, but also to the candidates.Then the bloody people in the church may not all be townspeople.

“How to undo the curse?” You Huo asked the witch doctor.

The witch doctor said: “Have you not been eavesdropping for a long time? I said, just transfer it to another person.”

“I’m talking about complete relief.”

Youhuo bent down and looked at him coldly.

The witch doctor looked at he for a moment, then, defeated, he broke the jar and said, “Kill the cursed person, or kill the duke.”

“You——”

The butler, who had his head lowered, suddenly jumped up. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Qin Jiu stuffed his mouth with pig’s trotters.

The witch doctor chuckled and repeated, “Just kill the Duke.”

One-sided words are inevitably deceptive. Qin Jiu looked at the bloody man curled up in the corner and said, “Father?”

The bloody man seemed dead. After a moment, he weakly raised his head and nodded: “I remember this…”

Qin Zhu: “Thank you.”

He glanced between the witch doctor and the housekeeper, and suddenly said jokingly: “The interrogation is over for now. What does the examiner think of their performance? What is the ABCD ranking?”

You Huo let go of his hand, pointed at the witch doctor with his chin and said, “This C, let’s take another round of exams.”

Witch doctor: “…”

He pointed at Douglas again: “D, just eliminate him.”

Qin Jiu raised his hand and touched his forehead, and saluted ruthlessly: “Give me half a minute.”

The wrinkles at the corners of Douglas’s mouth dropped, and there was a trace of hopelessness in the numbness.

***

The dark environment underground made people lose sight of the time. You Huo and Qin Zhu came out of the hut carrying their formal clothes. It was almost evening.

The sky in the distance is filled with dark clouds again, with moist water vapor gathering towards here.

They put on their clothes and returned to the church, only to find that everyone was surrounding the group of bowling balls, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Gao Qi rushed to them from afar and said, “You’re back. If you don’t see her again, we’ll have to dig out the backyard.”

“What are you doing?” Qin Jiu glanced at the crowd.

“We have some clues about what it means to cure a patient,” Gao Qi said.

Everyone turned over several stretcher beds and showed You Huo and Qin Jiu the bloody words on the backs.

“There are repeated parts. In summary, it’s just one sentence…” Gao Qi took a deep breath and said, “Killing them will be a relief.”

He also pointed to one of the bed boards and said: “This must be reserved for candidates. Killing a patient will get 3 points, and there is no limit.”

Kill them all, and maybe this exam will be over.

But Youhuo made a rough count and found that, excluding the laissez-faire priest, there were originally 25 patients here, and now there are still 25, not a single one missing.

None of the test takers managed to score points.

Qin Zhu raised his eyebrows.

Before he could speak, someone among the candidates muttered: “In addition, some traces were found. We think… at least four or five of these patients are candidates for a certain session like us.”

If they were just pure NPCs, they wouldn’t feel burdened to kill them.

Who hasn’t killed a few mobs in his life?

But when they learned that there were real people among them, no one could do anything.

3 points is respectable for most people.

But as Gao Qi and Zhao Jiatong said, it’s not to the extent.

They haven’t been forced to kill candidates for 3 points, which is something to be thankful for.

However, this atmosphere was quickly broken, because Qin Zhu told everyone what he had found out in the dungeon.

Everyone’s faces turned green at that moment.

Among them, Gaoqi is the greenest.

He drank more wine than everyone present combined. If the curse comes true for this candidate, he will definitely be in the top three.

***

Heavy rain fell before nightfall.

The old castle stood under the rain curtain, like a silent beast.

In the large bedroom on the first floor of the west tower, the Duke was losing his temper with the valets. He smashed a cup, wet an oil painting, and kicked over everything in the room…

Because the housekeeper has never been seen.

More than a dozen carriages picked up all the guests, except Douglas.

Isn’t he best at luring guests into making mistakes?What delayed him until now?

The Duke twirled the ring on his hand, and the air pressure was so low that no one dared to approach.

For a moment, he suspected that Douglas was involved with the witch doctor, and perhaps did something secretly behind his back.

But soon, he convinced himself again.

Anyone could be sorry for him, except Douglas.

“Sir, it’s dinner time.” A footman reminded him.

Even though the servants are no longer living beings and behave with a stiff, lifeless air, they still feel intimidated.

The Duke calmed down for a moment and said with a stern face: “If Douglas comes back, please come here and wait for me. I will teach him what punctuality means.”

After saying that, he put on a formulaic smile and turned around to go to the dinner hall.

Today’s dinner was very strange.

The guests stared at the wine and roast chicken with solemn expressions.Only three gentlemen performed outstandingly——

You Huo and Qin Zhu tasted all the food as if they didn’t know the curse, just like last night.

As for Gao Qi…

It was hopeless anyway, so he just let it go and drank.

The Duke tapped the wall of the cup lightly and said with a smile: “What? My dear guests have no appetite today? I asked the kitchen to prepare this carefully. If you don’t eat, I may be a little sad.”

“…”

Okay, you are the most arrogant in the question.

The candidates took a deep breath, and with the expressions of a strong man suffocating, he used a fork to pick up a little bit of the chicken skin…

The Duke clasped his hands and his eyes narrowed behind his mask.

At 10 o’clock in the evening, the dinner ended.

The Duke sat at the head of the table and watched the candidates leave the hall.His eyes were always chasing the two perfect gentlemen, hoping that Douglas would come back soon and bring him some happy news.

As the last candidate left, a footman hurried over.

“Master Duke.”

“Well, is Douglas back?”

The manservant’s gray face could actually change into several colors. He stiffened for a moment and nodded and said, “Well, I just came back…”

“Where is he? Is he waiting for me in the bedroom?”

The footman said hesitantly, “No.”

The Duke frowned: “Why?”

The valet shrank back and said, “The housekeeper…well…went into his bedroom as soon as he came back.”

The Duke was a little angry and a little puzzled.

He asked the valet to lead the way, and headed to Douglas’s bedroom with a straight face.

“What on earth are you playing, Douglas?” the Duke scolded him as he opened the door.

The expected response never came.

The expected figure was even absent.

“Where is he?!” The Duke glared at the footman.

The valet pointed to a corner of the bedroom and said: “Here…here…”

The Duke took a closer look:

There lay a pig wrapped in a butler’s shirt, with a piece of parchment pinned to the collar.

The Duke strode over and took it off to have a look.

The handwriting on the paper is dancing like dragons and phoenixes:

Sir Duke, I am Douglas, and you have asked me to find a little trouble for my guest.

Are you satisfied with this little trouble?

Have a nice day.

“………………………………”

The Duke almost died of anger.

He shivered and rubbed off the parchment, turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

As he walked, he said to the valet: “I want the bodies of these two guests tonight! Don’t even think about running away!”
