The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

The boy frowned, "So what?"

Su Qi paused, "They run wildly on the playground, yet dare not step on the grass or the flower beds. They can roar ferociously between the playing fields, but once they enter the teaching building they don't dare to run or make loud noise."

The boy's gaze slightly darkened, it really was like that, "Rules?"

"Here, rules are above all."

Su Qi looked at the small booklet, "Clearly... even demons must obey all the rules here."

"Otherwise, they will be subjected to Extreme Punishment."

"Well, that alone is enough."

The boy watched Su Qi's movements, "What are you going to do?"

"There is no perfect rule, only the person who uses it perfectly. As long as you find the pattern and mechanism within... whatever demon, whatever cat and mouse."

Su Qi slowly revealed a harmless smile, "Then all can be killed."

The boy suddenly froze his expression.

He abruptly looked up at the Sky Dome.

Because the gears had turned, a huge black and white mechanical bear had already appeared, and not only that... all around were gears appearing in every direction, a multitude of clocks.

The walls of the teaching building also cracked open, revealing a multitude of saws that came slashing densely at the demons trying to pass.

The ground kept splitting apart, revealing spikes below.

The stairs were all crushers that could grind everything to bits.

The corridors were even lined with dense execution Tools, popping up one by one.

The boy's eyes filled with astonishment, "What is this?"

Su Qi, however, did not answer and instead held the pen, facing all demons with an uplifted scarlet cold eye.

Far from being daunted, he even revealed a slight smile,

"This is... the first grand obstacle course sports meet of the Su Family Army School, boys and girls rush forward."

"All classmates who reach the rooftop first will receive one refrigerator... ah no, a cup of icy lemonade."

This son of an Outer God, "..."

For the first time, he was somewhat at a loss for words, but his shock was quickly suppressed, watching the Emerging Punishment manifesting, quickly and calmly.

"So this is your tactic, using a multitude of school rules to cause the demons to transgress and drag them into Extreme Punishment."

"I won't ask how you did it, just why do you know about these."

Su Qi gazed intently at the boy, his voice soft, "Because I have the ability to see through everything..."

The boy's pupils dilated, his body tensing as if seen through by those eyes. This feeling of being thoroughly seen made him take the matter seriously.

This guy...

"And... the school regulations I stole from that female teacher." A small booklet appeared in Su Qi's hand.

The boy, "..."

Damn you!

He had been fooled!

He almost believed it!

If you have the booklet, why make up so much stuff!!!! He genuinely felt like he had been seen through!!

Su Qi calmly put away the booklet, "Okay, kid, you... lie down over there for now. I'm almost done here."

The boy, "..."

It seemed that, under these circumstances, it might actually succeed.

It seemed like... he had been shown up.

Of course, everything Su Qi said was half-true, half-false; the booklet indeed had many rules recorded, and that was true, but in fact... it was only a small part of the whole school; the rest had been collected by Su Qi along the way.

Furthermore,

There was also some help provided by a certain Ma Liang, who had also contributed a lot of help.

Nice.

The first to see through Su Qi's strategy was Ma Liang, truly worthy of being a Divine.

Later, he would award him a big red flower and a certificate for the three good students.

The outlined drawings were converging to become complete, every line condensing vast Spiritual Energy, emitting strange fluctuations.

At the same time,

Reflecting against the Sky Dome, casting light above on the Sky Dome, connecting with the drawing... a door slowly appeared!

As long as Su Qi completed the last 10%, the door would solidify completely, opening an exit!

And at this moment,

The first player to pass had already emerged; the Big Head Teacher... was charging at the locks of the rooftop door, looking at Su Qi's figure, growling with a murderous aura!

There were no rules on the teaching building rooftop, only breaking the locks was required.

Su Qi listened to its roar, "It seems the first challenger is somewhat impatient about the prize they are about to receive. Let's see how long it takes to break through this lock."

The next moment after Su Qi finished speaking,

Two more teachers appeared, exuding a dense dark energy, and with a bang, they slammed against the lock!

"Crack!"

A significant crack appeared on the iron door's lock.

The boy by the side watched the scene with amusement. "You think you can keep rambling and everything will be fine? They're about to break through. What can you do about it?"

"I'm not alone."

At that moment, Su Qi had completed the painting. The moment the brush fell, the painting burst forth, spewing light particles that shot towards the Sky Dome, solidifying the door!

The exit was created!

However.

Above it, there was a clock face, showing only one minute before the door would close.

"Click!"

As soon as Su Qi put away his brush, the door was violently shattered, and three figures charged straight at him.

"True to the form of a Demigod, instantly bursting forth were three triumphant players, male and female."

Su Qi watched as they rushed towards him with murderous intent, the air around him tensing, every possible escape route around him locked down.

And at that moment,

The boy stretched out his hand, a fantastical power abruptly shrunk them to inches, instantly turning them into little animals, three black mice.

"We only have fifteen seconds."

"Let's go."

The others then emerged from their hiding places and ran towards the door.

Su Qi gave him a glance.

Feeling Su Qi's gaze, the boy gently smiled,

"Since you've asked for my help... I'll assist you this once. After so many years, it's rare to find someone pleasing to the eye and capable of surprising me."

?

"Where does this memory come from?" Su Qi asked.

The boy paused, "Didn't you just say you're not alone?"

He confidently waved his hand, "Is there a second one here who can help you?"

Su Qi gave a thumbs up, "That logic isn't flawed."

However, in the ring space on Su Qi's finger,

Luo Shenfu, which had been gathering strength for half a day ready to burst forth, fell into a long silence, "…"

Am I not a person?

Am I really not a person!

Su Qi and the boy both burst forth with Spiritual Energy towards the door. The boy's power was so BUG, he could not only transform himself into anything but also do the same to others.

Moreover,

It wasn't just an illusion he created; it was an actual transformation of the body, possessing all of its attributes.

Deserving to be at the pinnacle existence like the Angel Divine Race, even without a question mark, his own Angel Series could sense a bit.

However,

Su Qi could also see that although this ability was buggy, it was not easy to use and it came at a certain price.

The effect was short-lived, there was a limit to the number of forced transformations, and the boy's complexion was indeed a bit pale.

The door was counting down in mid-air, tick-tock, tick-tock.

A mass of demons no longer appeared as elementary students but had unfolded their wings, charging towards the sky!

They weren't aimed at attacking the escaping crowd but instead towards the door; they too wanted to leave this place!

Of course,

There was someone to stop them.

The next moment,

Su Qi felt the Divine Brush slip out of his hand and fly away.

After the exit formed, the demons regained some of their power, so Ma Liang's power also recovered a bit.

"I liked your last painting, so..." Ma Liang's voice echoed in Su Qi's ears.

The next moment,

A figure holding a Gatling gun stood mid-air, Mecha, Daoist Talisman, Transforming Device, and all were drawn out by the Divine Brush!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Instantly,

All demons trying to approach the Ancient Gate in the air were struck down, falling towards the ground!

The boy squinted at the scene, "Is that person the owner of the painting?"

Not buddies, you come to the rooftop to enjoy the breeze without even unlocking the hidden characters?

"Don't know him, have no idea, and not acquainted," Su Qi directly responded with a threefold denial.

Ma Liang had to suppress these demons here and seemed to be staying in the Ancient Gate as well, possibly for some reason.

However,

That was none of his concern for now.

Su Qi looked at the door.

"Next comes the most critical moment."

He was about to exploit a game-changing BUG.
