Faced with the vampires' tough pressure, the Demon Realm Inspectorate's attitude was to resolutely follow the rules.

They escorted the vampire envoys across the extremely cold northern terrain to the Demon Realm, and would accompany the vampire envoys to the academy to investigate.

This vampire envoy possessed unique blood power, capable of identifying humans disguised as demons.

Once the vampire envoy really found humans in the academy, the leaders of this Purgatory Corridor Academy would bear a great responsibility!

In order to quell the vampires' anger, the demons might even directly sacrifice them.

Moreover, in order to prevent the headmaster from obstructing, the Department of Education had transferred the headmaster in advance under the pretext of an important agenda, effectively sidelining him.

"According to the estimate, the vampire envoy will arrive at the school in a few hours."

The vice-principal's voice was full of exhaustion.

Now, the only chance for the academy was the Demon King's secret assistance.

Although the Demon King's attitude was ambiguous on the surface.

After all, from the Demon King's standpoint, he absolutely couldn't openly help the school deceive the vampires.

That would anger the vampires and violate the treaty.

But before the headmaster was transferred, the Demon King had secretly sent word to him that if the vampires really sent an envoy, then the Demon King would also send a resourceful confidant to assist the school.

And if there really were lurking humans the vampires were looking for in the academy, then this special envoy from the Demon King's city would be the academy's last hope!

But until now, with the vampire envoy arriving in a few hours, the special envoy was still nowhere to be seen!

"Lord Special Envoy, where are you..."

The vice-principal rested his hands on the table, his brows tightly furrowed, his expression distressed, his eyes looking very lost, as if trying to find a way out in the darkness.

Now, all he could hope for was that the special envoy with the Black Jade Demon King's token could appear quickly and help them deal with the vampire envoy.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Under the starry sky of the glass corridor sky bridge, Lan Qi looked down at the documents in his hand, his fingers gently stroking the words on the surface of the certificate.

His gaze wandered back and forth between the Demon King City residence permit and the black seal, his eyes full of confusion and contemplation.

"Isn't this guy a student?"

"Feels like he's some kind of privileged character."

Lan Qi muttered to himself.

It was like inexplicably defeating a hidden monster.

And getting some meaningless items as loot.

"..."

Huperian didn't know how to comment.

Originally, according to the Shadow World's mechanics, this silver-haired demon should never have been killed in the Demon King's Restaurant, the safest area in the functional district, but he happened to encounter Lan Qi, the bane of demons.

So it wasn't surprising that he had some strange things on him.

"Anyway, with a total of five class periods, in the next third period, we have to find a level 3 classroom to try."

Lan Qi stood up and said.

Only in level 3 classrooms was it possible to encounter high-level professor-level demons.

And only from such demons could they learn about the "high-level meeting" that the school held some time ago.

Lan Qi looked at the mission objective.

The current academy exploration progress had reached 18%.

Previously, the two of them had enjoyed more than an hour of wonderful dinner time in the second period.

Entering the restaurant didn't increase the exploration progress.

This indicated that functional areas didn't increase it.

And the other two teams probably each provided 4%, meaning they each entered and cleared a level 2 classroom.

"It seems our progress is a bit behind, we have to work harder next!"

Lan Qi cheered himself and Huperian with a sense of responsibility.

After all, if they couldn't successfully clear the Shadow World, it would cause a natural disaster in the real world!

"Okay."

Huperian looked at Lan Qi's natural smile, and only suspected that he had eaten and drunk his fill and couldn't wait to continue playing in the amusement park.

She sighed and followed the energetic Lan Qi.

How could the Shadow World's challenge be like this? It was completely different from what she had imagined.

It felt like accompanying Lan Qi to have fun in a demon-themed amusement park.

Under the illumination of the starry sky, Lan Qi and Huperian worked together to move the silver-haired demon's body to the window.

The two of them worked together to throw the silver-haired demon's body like an arrow released from a bow, slowly falling into the endless Purgatory along the windows of the transparent glass corridor.

As his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, only the empty glass corridor and the silent night sky remained.

Huperian breathed a sigh of relief.

Lan Qi had thoughtfully lent a hand just now, not leaving the hard work to her alone, so the demerits would be split between them, not all deducted from her.

The two leaned against the wall, chatting and killing time.

Until the ancient and melodious bell rang again throughout the school, breaking the silence here.

The interface connecting the corridors seemed to possess life, and suddenly began to slowly rotate.

The sound of rolling and colliding stones was like a pendulum striking steel, emitting a torrent of loud noises.

Soon, the corridor of the functional area and the corridor of the teaching area were reconnected.

During this process, the winding black stone steps extended downwards in a spiral shape, without any support, as if floating in the air.

And the environment around the stairs was only an endless darkness, making it impossible to have any sense of direction.

After about ten minutes, the two saw Batchelder rushing over from the stairs.

His pace seemed a little hurried, running while carefully avoiding the gaps on the steps.

"Two, I'm late."

Batchelder didn't dare to neglect Lan Qi and Huperian at all, and respectfully lowered his head.

"It's okay, student Batchelder, take us to a level 3 classroom, preferably an art-related one."

Lan Qi smiled and patted him on the shoulder, very amiable.

"Level 3..."

A trace of surprise suddenly appeared on Batchelder's face, and then his eyes became full of shock.

They were suddenly going to up the intensity, challenging the most difficult classroom in each department of the academy.

"You can just wait in the corridor then, I'll give you three credit coins as a reward directly."

Lan Qi spread his hands, he could see Batchelder's fear.

"!"

Batchelder was stunned for a moment, then nodded frantically to thank him.

For some reason, he always felt that after Lan Qi and Huperian came to the Demon King's Restaurant, not only did their credit coins not decrease, but they also made a fortune like nouveau riches?

But in this strictly controlled functional area, how could there be any possibility of tampering with the meters...

"Lead the way."

Lan Qi grinned.

Now he was rich with countless credit coins, there was no need to drag Batchelder through the map, it wouldn't hurt to give him a few at his own expense.

He just needed to stay with Huperian, whose strength had already been boosted to the fourth level by the limited-time meals, to have some protection.

Lan Qi felt that as long as he cleared another level 3 classroom.

The crisis hidden in this academy should become clear!
