This is also the case with this underground shelter built in the 1980s. It not only has water and electricity, but has also been renovated to include modern facilities such as cinemas, stadiums, indoor swimming pools, sports centers, etc. It has everything you need and is simply like a small underground kingdom.
In the school area on the seventh floor of the underground shelter, in a spacious and bright multimedia classroom with bright lights on, it looks no different from all the schools on the ground.
Just ignore the students on the desks in the classroom, they are all strange monsters.
These monsters all had hideous faces, some had sharp claws and fangs, some were covered in fur and scales, and they were all demons.
However, these dozen or so monsters all had deep thoughts on their faces, holding pens and answering questions on their desks. Some monsters with special limbs such as animal claws that could not hold pens lay on the ground, dipped their claws in ink, and drew on special paper.
“Isn’t this question too difficult?”
"What does this kanji mean? Why is there no katakana? I don't understand this question."
"Choose A or B, it doesn't matter, choose the one with the longest answer."
At this time, a green puppet monster on the podium, whose whole body was wrapped in tree roots and vines, suddenly stretched out a tentacle like an old tree root, tied up one of the monsters who was looking around, tied him up and threw him aside.
"No cheating! There are five minutes left. This surprise test will be graded by the teacher himself."
The clock hanging on the wall of the classroom showed eighteen fifty-five.
When they heard the word "teacher", these monsters all showed looks of panic and terror. They dared not whisper anymore and buried their heads in the test papers, writing furiously.
Five minutes later, vines with leaves sprouted out of the puppet monster's body and collected all the test papers.
After a few minutes, the door of the classroom was pushed open, and a humanoid monster wearing a white coat and with white scales all over its body walked in.
Unlike other monsters in the classroom that were strange in shape and closer to wild beasts, this monster had a snake head and a human body, complete limbs, and was wearing human clothes. At first glance, it looked somewhat similar to a human, but it was even more creepy because of the uncanny valley effect.
A strong chilly aura filled the entire classroom as the monster with a snake's head and a human body appeared. The other dozen monsters couldn't help but lower their heads and greet him.
"teacher."
"Hello teacher."
"Good evening, everybody."
The teacher nodded, and his reptilian cold vertical pupils scanned all the monsters before he spoke in a hoarse voice;
"It's almost the end of April. I'm here to test your learning results during this period. I hope you won't disappoint me."
The teacher sat in a seat behind the podium, picked up a red pen and started marking the test papers. He moved very quickly, and it took him only a dozen seconds to circle each test paper. The speed was extremely fast, which was also related to the fact that most of the test papers were blank.
As the teacher made revisions, his brows furrowed and his expression became increasingly cold.
When the monsters below saw the teacher's expression, they were all terrified and didn't even dare to breathe.
"The test results are out. Only three monsters, No. 04, No. 12, and No. 13, passed. All the others failed!"
In just a few minutes, the teacher had finished marking all the test papers, and his tone was gloomy and he seemed very dissatisfied.
"These papers are only equivalent to the academic ability of a third-grade human. Why can't you even answer this kind of questions? What do I usually teach you in class? You ignore my words?!"
The teacher shouted sharply, and all the monsters lowered their heads, as if flowers had suddenly bloomed on the ground.
"You all know the punishment for failing the test. Starting from number 1, come up!"
A one-eyed monster, shivering all over, walked over tremblingly.
The teacher stretched out a palm covered with white scales towards the one-eyed monster. The next moment, a gray poisonous snake emerged from his white coat, flew over, wrapped around the monster, and bit its neck.
"Ho ho-"
The one-eyed monster struggled on the ground with a painful look on its face and white foam coming out of its mouth, but the poisonous snake did not let it go and continued to inject venom and inflict pain on it.
"You only scored 30 points, so you will be penalized seconds."
The teacher took out a mobile phone from his arms and started the stopwatch function. After 30 seconds, the poisonous snake opened its mouth, hissing and staring at the other monsters in the classroom.
"Kihara-kun, treat number 1."
"is teacher."
Looking at the one-eyed monster lying unconscious on the ground with a black and blue face, all the monsters present showed expressions of grief for their own kind. When they thought that they would also have to accept the punishment of failing the exam, they could not help but tremble all over.
"Next is number 2. You only got 9 points. How can you get 9 points? For a monster like you who has no hands, you took a special test with all multiple-choice questions. You can't get only 9 points if you guessed everything. It seems that you don't put your mind into studying at all. Accept the punishment."
Number 2 was a monster lying on the ground, with a mane on its back that looked like a wild boar but with horns. Fear flashed in its pupils, but it finally couldn't bear it anymore. It raised its head, overturned the desk, and stomped on it to pieces!
"Study, study shit!"
The horned boar monster opened its bloody mouth and roared at the teacher:
"Orochi, you monster, are you crazy? As the king of monsters in Tokyo, you don't take us monsters out to kill and eat people, but ask us monsters to hide here and learn human writing all day. Do you still count as a monster?"
"Shut up! No. 2, have you forgotten who took you in, protected you, and taught you to speak?" The puppet monster shouted harshly, and a branch stretched out from his body to tie up the bull-horned boar monster.
"Kihara-kun, let it speak."
The teacher waved his hand, his Adam's apple moved, and he took out a tablet from his mouth and called up the data.
"I've really had enough! I don't want to learn this nonsense human culture. Monsters only need strength. I want to rush into the streets and kill all the weak humans!" The bull-horned wild boar monster stomped its front hooves on the ground, creating a hole.
It turned around and said to the other monsters:
"Do you still want to continue studying this bullshit here? Do you want to be tortured by the giant snake? Let's go on strike together and go to war with humans!"
Chapter 63 Monster Democracy
"War against humans, just you?"
Teacher Orochi glanced at the student file on the tablet. No. 2, born in , had three monthly exams from January to March. He failed the academic subjects three times, the human society general studies course twice, and the firearms identification course three times.
He is totally a poor student among monsters.
"Humans are not as powerful as you say. I've seen human wars on TV, and they were nothing more than hacking around with swords and guns. Humans are just low-level creatures that monsters can kill with a single bite. We monsters should go down to the ground and rule over humans openly." The bull-horned wild boar monster roared at the top of his lungs.
"Orochi, you are just using humans to intimidate us, to force us monsters to obey your orders!"
Why do idiots like this appear from time to time among monsters?
Teacher Orochi shook his head and asked the puppet monster, "What movie is being shown in the Human General Education class right now?"
"This week it was Seven Samurai, and last month it was the 50-episode drama Sanada Maru produced by NHK."
"Show less of these Taiga dramas and swordplay movies. There are monsters who really take them seriously. Replace them all with military war documentaries from now on."
Teacher Orochi said with some dissatisfaction, turning around and looking at the ox-horned boar monster with a sinister look.
Such a black sheep who is unable to judge the situation and is arrogant is not qualified to be a monster of the 21st century and should be punished as soon as possible.
The teacher flicked his sleeves and a huge snake jumped out, wrapping around the ox-horned wild boar monster.
"laugh--"
Two strings of white vapor came out of the nostrils of the ox-horned wild boar monster, and its entire body turned red like a boiling water stove. The temperature in the classroom suddenly rose.
The big snake wrapped around it couldn't bear the high temperature and immediately loosened its body.
"Big snake, I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to kill you!"
The ox-horned wild boar monster broke free from its restraints and immediately displayed an agility that was inconsistent with its burly body. The boar rushed forward, pressed against the body of the teacher snake, knocked over the podium, and even the door was smashed like paper. Its head hit the wall of the corridor, leaving a half-meter-deep hole.
But what was pressed against the wall was not Teacher Orochi, but only a white coat.
Teacher Orochi had stood behind the horned boar monster at some point, staring at it with unfriendly eyes.
"High temperature and strange strength, is this the magic you awakened? It looks pretty good. Is this your trump card to resist education?"
The horned boar monster was frightened by this extremely intimidating gaze. It turned its head and shouted at the other monsters in the classroom:
"Are you still going to stay in this dark and damp place and learn these nonsense? Come out and join me!"
"Well, I'd like to take this opportunity to listen to your opinions on my educational policy."
Teacher Orochi stuck out his tongue and licked his eyes, then said in a steady voice:
"It's the 21st century, and monsters should also practice democracy. Let you students vote for yourselves. Should you continue to study underground, or go to war with humans?"
Hearing that there was no sign of anger in Teacher Orochi's tone, more than a dozen monsters looked at each other, staring at each other for a long time, and finally a monster stood up.
"Teacher, I, I don't want to disobey you, but I really don't know what's the point of us monsters learning human characters?"
"Yes, I can't stand hiding underground without seeing the sun all day and not being able to enjoy the delicious human flesh!"
"I don't want to fight humans, but I don't want to study either. I want to go back to the mountains."
One monster after another stood up, stood together, and expressed their dissatisfaction with the teacher.
Teacher Orochi said nothing and continued to lick his eyes with his forked tongue.
Seeing Teacher Orochi's action, the puppet monster was so scared that the leaves on its body turned yellow. This was a small action that the teacher would make when he was furious.
Stop it, stop it.
"And the monster, do you agree with what No. 2 said?"
Teacher Orochi's cold vertical pupils swept across the monsters in the classroom. Many of the monsters who had failed the previous exams ran to the side of the ox-horned monster.
"Look, most of the monsters are on my side. The minority obeys the majority. Please let us go."
The ox-horned wild boar monster looked at the group of monsters gathered around him, and became more confident and stopped shouting for fighting and killing.
"Teacher, we don't want to break up with you. We won't leak information about our organization or base to the Metropolitan Police Department."
"Do you think you can bully people when you get out? What era do you think this is? This is not the Heian or the Warring States period, this is the Reiwa era of the 21st century!"
There was uncontrollable anger in Teacher Orochi's deep voice.
Just like there are many lazy people in human schools who don’t like to study and yearn for the bright lights, wine and women, and the extravagant life outside the school gate, but when they break into the society, they will only be tortured and bruised by the cruel society.
If these monsters escape from its protection and walk to the international city of Tokyo, someone will immediately call the police, attracting a manhunt by the Metropolitan Police Department, and one by one they will become human experiments!
The fact that monsters are exposed in modern society will also hinder their dreams.
"The reason why I want to gather the wild monsters in Tokyo and hide in the dark is that the violence possessed by humans is far superior to that of the newly born monsters. Going into a direct battle with humans now is like hitting a rock with an egg. We will definitely fail!"
Just like the depressing atmosphere before a tsunami, it began to spread in the classroom, and an extremely terrifying aura suddenly burst out from Teacher Orochi!
"But time is on our side! Every year, more monsters are born than the year before. The monsters' demonic energy and awakened magic will also increase with the passage of time. Even a small monster like you may become a big monster like me in ten years!"
The ox-horned wild boar monster and the group of little monsters around him were frightened by the murderous and demonic aura that emanated from the teacher, which was almost tangible.
Steam billowed out of its body, and the bull-horned boar monster lowered its head, pointed its horns at the teacher, and was about to launch an attack.
But at this moment, it found itself paralyzed all over. It looked down and found that one after another black snake-like spells emerged from its body surface, binding it and making it unable to move.
With a thud, the huge body fell straight to the ground.
"That is to say, if we can just endure for another ten or fifteen years, the situation will change, and this island nation will be easily taken by the monsters. As for the useless bureaucrats in the Metropolitan Police Department who want to cover up the existence of monsters and pretend that nothing has happened, they have helped a lot to some extent. I also don't want the monsters to be exposed to the public and become the target of public criticism."
Those little monsters who followed the bull-horned boar monster to make trouble also fell to the ground with stiff bodies and black spells all over their bodies.
"So, forbearance is necessary now! Learning the common sense of human society is also necessary! I will not forgive any monster who disobeys my plan, no matter who it is!"
Teacher Orochi stared coldly at the monsters lying on the ground.
"Finally, let me, the teacher, give you a lesson on firearms identification!"
Teacher Orochi opened his mouth as wide as he could, with the corners of his mouth cracked all the way to behind his ears, as if his entire skull was opened, and a huge bulge in his abdominal cavity broke through his throat and came out.
It turned out to be the barrel of a Gatling gun!
"Da da da!"
The metal storm formed by the bullets instantly swept the bull-horned boar monster and other monsters into pieces.
Chapter 64 Chapter 065 Human Experiment
In a luxurious guest room in the underground shelter, Teacher Orochi walked into the bathroom and turned on the faucet of the bathtub with skillful movements. Hot water gushed out and flowed in the bathtub.
After the water was ready, Teacher Orochi tested the water temperature with his hand and then lay down in it with satisfaction.
Soaking in hot water is really a great enjoyment for a cold-blooded monster like it.
The underground shelter was originally designed for humans, and other monsters that were as big as wild beasts found it difficult to get used to it, so they could only live in the remodeled rooms. But for a humanoid monster like Mr. Orochi, it was no problem. Human technology creations were all fool-proof, and he was very skilled in using them.
Picking up a handful of hot water and pouring it over the water, Teacher Orochi couldn't help but think back to ten years ago when he was just a weak monster being hunted by humans.
At that time, Teacher Orochi was just like the little monsters today, full of deep hatred for humans.
He launched attacks on humans several times, but was also repeatedly besieged by official forces. He only survived by luck.
After escaping death, Teacher Orochi began to understand that to fight against humans with brute force alone would be self-destruction, so he lay dormant, hiding in the dark and spying on this bizarre human society.
