Side Event

No matter how much the English teacher tries to impress her.

Cas remained completely unmoved.

Some teenagers' shyness, and the blush on their faces, is all an act.

"Teacher... I asked for leave to see you because I wanted to ask about some issues at school."

Teacher Shirley wasn't in a hurry; one class period was enough for them to 'play'.

Such a handsome and cute male student is hard to hold onto. Let him ask whatever he wants, so as not to spoil the fun.

"Anyway, there's still plenty of time, go ahead and ask... You'd better behave yourself later! Go get me a glass of water first."

"OK."

Cas picked up a large water glass from the table; its total capacity was about one liter.

Based on the normal water intake, Cas took half a glass of water and handed it over.

Who knew that Teacher Shirley's next action was not in line with what one would expect from a delicate woman... She picked up a giant water glass and started chugging it down her throat!

Glug glug!

This half-cup of water is 500ml, but it was all drunk in two seconds. What's even more terrifying is that... Teacher Shirley looked dissatisfied.

"This water isn't enough for me... Wait a minute, I'm suddenly feeling thirsty."

Shirley pulled down her Black Silk Long Legs and got up to get a drink of water, deliberately sticking out her tongue to lick Cas's face.

Soft as it was, the tongue felt somewhat uncomfortable as it traced across Cas's cheek.

A soft, barb-like growth on Teacher Shirley's tongue, though not enough to scratch her cheek, made Cas very uncomfortable.

What followed made Cas uneasy.

Teacher Shirley walked to the sink and made an inexplicable gesture.

She didn't use a cup to get the water...

Instead, they stick their whole head under the tap, turn the water valve on full blast, and drink directly from the tap.

The water pressure is very high.

As a result, a lot of tap water splashed out during the drinking process.

The wet clothes and black stockings of Teacher Shirley were soaked... Putting aside the strangeness, the blonde female teacher who was wet was actually quite nice.

Cas looked at the water stains left near the other sinks, then at Teacher Shirley's 'exaggerated' way of drinking water... and immediately imagined the scene of drinking water in the office on a daily basis.

All the teachers would drink water directly from the sink.

Habit? Preference?

No... this is abnormal enough.

Teacher Shirley drank from the tap for a full minute before she was completely satisfied.

Teacher Shirley, soaking wet, couldn't wait to have an 'office battle' with this handsome young man.

However, just as she pulled her head out of the sink, preparing to throw herself into Cas's arms...

Bass!

A flash of silver light appeared before my eyes.

Teacher Shirley's gaze first moved diagonally horizontally, and then fell vertically downwards.

His gaze fell directly on her own high heels.

She knew that she had been beheaded by this handsome and obedient male student.

This was a decision made by Cas.

Having extensive experience and frequently dealing with non-human beings, he was over 80% certain that Teacher Shirley was not human... or rather, none of the teachers in the office were human.

Due to the Carrying Limit in the Destiny Space, Cas only carried a light short sword.

But Cas's power is still enough to sever the heads of ordinary people.

Decapitation complete!

Teacher Shirley, however, remained as vibrant as ever.

Even its head, which had fallen to the ground, remained open, slowly turning to look at Cas, asking with a puzzled expression:

"Didn't you promise to be with me? Why are you doing this to me?"

During the questioning process.

The headless body grabbed a fruit knife from beside the sink and swung it at Cas.

The headless body's neck had split open, transforming into a round mouth covered in sharp spikes, giving it a very dangerous appearance.

It can move its body independently without a head.

Once we kill Cas, we can put his head back on.

As for Teacher Shirley's head, it was filled with tears of sadness after being questioned.

Then a string of 'finger tissue' splits off from the neck and crawls away carrying the head... seemingly intending to leave the office to deliver a message.

Cas is a three-star Crusader.

First, he kicked the headless body away, then pounced on Teacher Shirley's strange head.

The short sword in his hand pierced through the skull with pinpoint accuracy!

One-hit kill.

Due to the death of the head, the body that was kicked away immediately lost its vitality and collapsed to the ground.

The office became a mess due to a series of battles.

Cas had to clean up Teacher Shirley's body and restore the office to its original state before the other teachers returned from class.

Staring at the giant water glasses on every desk and the numerous water stains on the floor, Cas muttered to himself:

"Teacher Shirley is definitely not an isolated case... The teachers in the office, and even the entire school, might have problems. Is this the Joker's doing, or a separate Side Event?"

Cas immediately edited a text message for the team members.

"Come quickly to [General Office (3)], there's a troublesome matter that needs to be dealt with."

Within ten minutes.

The office was restored to its original state.

Han Dong squatted alone in front of the strange corpse, observing the 'multi-toothed oral cavity structure' in its neck.

"Mandible and radula... This Teacher Shirley must be an Aquatic Variant."

Strangely, her human behavior remained unaffected; she could even teach normally. To understand this further, an autopsy would be necessary... unfortunately, I'm not an expert in that area."

When Han Dong muttered these words to himself, the team members looked at each other, completely clueless about what he was talking about.

"Koslin, do you have a sharp handsaw or a knife?"

"Have."

Koslin immediately made a small handsaw for Han Dong on the spot.

Since the death of the brain also causes the separated body to lose its activity.

Han Dong deduced that Teacher Shirley's brain was the main site of the mutation.

The subsequent cutting scene was rather gruesome... (137 words omitted)

"How long has it been since he died? How come his entire brain has been drained of all its moisture?"

The exposed part of the brain is essentially a brainstem.

However, Han Dong quickly found the culprit near the inner layer of his brain tissue... a cluster of Parasitic Worm the size of broad beans, currently in a dehydrated and shriveled state, as hard as a fossil.

Just as Han Dong pulled the little guy out with tweezers.

The familiar system voice echoed in the minds of the four:

Side Event activated: [Parasitic School]

The task is to identify and eliminate the Parasitic Host hiding in the school.

Event Reward: Medium Clue (Water Pollution in Derry Town), increases the chance of obtaining the "Destiny Card" in the final reward, and has a small chance of obtaining the "Perfect Parasite".

"Side Event!?"

Cas never expected this.

He had intended to use the special teacher-student relationship to learn more about the school.

To everyone's surprise, halfway through this operation, they caught an unexpected big fish.
