Records of the Weakest Emperor

Chapter 80: Escape Plan

"The difficulty of our final phase has been set to Impossible? What is this? Who did...? Why? Why would they... Do they really want us to die that much?"

Jannette directly collapsed on her knees realizing the harrowing reality that they were really sent here to die.

Calvin's calm and composed facade broke at this moment as he clenched his fists.

His eyes went bloodshot as he raised his head and stare at the ceiling, "You bastards from Fivecent... Are you enjoying this? Are you entertained yet?!" He yelled with such vigor and volume that everyone's attention turned to him.

Soon, they all stood up and shouted at the ceiling.

"That's right! Why did you send us here if you want us to die? We came here to take advantage of the opportunity to clear our debts, but that doesn't mean that we wanted to die!" Jane mustered her courage and shouted.

Albeit, her voice was so small it seemed as if she was whispering than shouting.

Scarlette also stood up and ranted, "So many... So many people have died just so we could escape... But now that we are about to escape, you are preventing us from escaping? Does that mean that you don't want us to live? Do you bastards out there still have some conscience?!"

Scarlette was a woman who had a proper upbringing.

She didn't want to curse and even disdained it, but at this moment...

She knew that she had to curse.

She had to curse in order to vent her feelings since she didn't want to die as a ghost full of grievance and be stuck on this place for all eternity, unable to return to the cycle of life and reincarnate.

What they were doing seemed to be futile since a multinational company like Fivecent wouldn't possibly listen to their cries. But unexpectedly, as soon as Scarlette finished her rant. Another transparent window appeared in front of everyone and it said...

[Countdown will start in twenty seconds...]

"It's starting! We still have a few seconds to run! It's good, we can run now!"

Scarlette exclaimed in joy.

But Hugo had a different opinion, "It's not good..."

"In a few seconds, we will still be swarmed by those bastards. They should've canceled this bullshit event and let us ride the elevator to safety. Fucking hell. I swear, I will bash the skull of that bastard who decided to set the difficulty of our final phase to Impossible..."

Hugo's eyes reddened as his chest violently heaved with emotions.

"We lost half our members in a blink of an eye just because a bastard with authority decided that some of us needed to die! Fuck this! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Hugo howled.

Everyone turned to look at him in astonishment.

The first impression that everyone had of Hugo was that he was a man of dignity and composure.

They had never seen him panic even once but at this moment...

He was actually yelling out his frustrations like this?

To think that a man like him had several layers of personalities underneath.

Everyone thought for sure that Hugo was a hired killer or an ex-convict, and that was the reason why they felt that they could never get close to Hugo since that endeavor seemed to be too dangerous.

But right now, they were amused seeing him rant like this.

However, their amusement wasn't that significant compared to the despair that they were feeling in their hearts at this moment.

Calvin took out a map that he had already memorized and handed it over to Hugo.

Without saying anything, he walked towards the nearby corpses of security guards and took their guns.

He then gave those guns to the others.

"Memorize that map! We are going to use the route that I highlighted so that we can have those bastards follow us from behind, but we're actually circling around the Administration Block! I predict that after this two minutes, we will end up in this staircase adjacent to the main elevators."

Calvin pointed at the staircase and everyone followed his finger and line of sight

Hugo nodded his head, "I've memorized it."

"Good, keep that notebook and you lead the way for the others! I'll clear a path with my gun!"

Calvin checked the magazine and discovered that the gun had thirty bullets.

When the group reached the vents that they needed to crawl through in order to reach the Church in the Administration Block marked on the map.

Afterwards, they planned on going to the second floor of the Vocational Block through the use of the Church's staircase and then going down back to the Main Hall of the Administration Block using the stairs directly beside the main elevators.

The route that Calvin had outlined was the shortest route possible and it would take them roughly two minutes or more to complete the entire route. However, the ending was still the same.

They would reach the stairs adjacent to the main elevators and then they could just jump in the main elevators and close the doors it to escape.

Each and everyone in the group was full of adrenaline at this moment.

They didn't care about anything else.

The women were the first ones to crawl into the vent, Jannette was at the forefront while the others were behind her.

Calvin raised his head and a beautiful scene was dimly revealed in front of him.

"Jane... She's such a timid and modest girl, but to think that she's bold enough to wear black-laced panties!"

Calvin thought to himself, but then he suddenly revealed a bitter smile as he shook that silly thought.

The number of dangers that he had experienced in his past lifetime reached several hundred times and their danger levels far outstripped the danger of Mount Spirit Sword Asylum.

Back then, Calvin even had to escape from the hands of a Great Demon!

If a Great Demon was at Level 100.

Calvin's level at this moment should be at Level 1.

The disparity was so great and that disparity was the reason why Calvin felt somewhat desensitized of dangers.

He could recognize that Mount Spirit Sword Asylum was dangerous, but whenever he compared it to the magnitude of dangers that he had experienced back then. He could only shake his head and think that Mount Spirit Sword Asylum wasn't really that dangerous.

But since danger was relative to an individual's strength, Calvin didn't know what to feel.

In the end, he decided to take the dangers of Mount Spirit Sword Asylum seriously as the others.

"It's clear! There's no one here!"

Jannette looked around their immediate area and discovered that there was no one loitering around.

The group then exited the vent and they soon discovered a chapel with the statue of a beheaded saint.

The statue had pulsating blood vessels all over its body and the fact that it had no head made it look creepier.

"Any church is a sacred place and it should fill us with warmth and comfort. Yet, being in this place makes me feel anything but comfort. In fact, this place gives me the creeps." Calvin softly commented.

Everyone heard what he said and they couldn't help but agree.

Not willing to stay here any longer, the group quickly discovered the staircase that they needed to ascend in order to reach the second floor of the Vocational Block.

But as soon as the group entered the second floor...

They were surrounded by shadows in a blink of an eye.

The mad patients had appeared!

They had different colorful expressions on their faces.

Some were curious, some had harsh looks, some excited, while some had traces of fear on their faces.

But one thing was for sure...

They had successfully surrounded the group and the newbies were suddenly thrown into a dangerous situation without any warning!
