Chapter 20 Chapter Twenty
After walking along the scent for a while, they finally saw messy footprints on the ground, and some cards and other things that fell beside the footprints.
Fang Jijing stepped forward, picked up the things, and after careful identification, he finally confirmed: "These are the things left by the missing group."
Now that the direction is right, all that remains is to follow the footprints to find someone.
Lian Jiashuo and Song Huai looked at each other tacitly, and continued to walk forward.
And when Fang Jijing finished his analysis and raised his head, he realized that the two of them had left him and moved on.
Fang Jijing: "..."
For some reason, he always felt like he was superfluous in front of this pair of master and servant.
The three of them went deep into it, and the fragrance became more and more intense. However, Lian Jiashuo had already judged that the fragrance had hallucinogenic properties, so he put on the gas mask in the combat equipment in advance, so he was not affected in any way.
It's just that Lian Jiashuo couldn't figure out why this hallucinogenic gas appeared here.
"Is it true that someone from outside the academy broke in and wanted to do something to the students?" Song Huai asked with a frown.
Fang Jijing immediately denied: "This is impossible, the academy is the safest place, and it is absolutely impossible for such a thing to happen."
Song Huai sneered upon hearing this.
It happened to be in this academy that he was attacked two years ago.
For Song Huai, who has encountered various accidents when going out since childhood, there is no such thing as absolute safety.
Of course Lian Jiashuo knew what Song Huai was thinking, but in this situation, he didn't need to explain to Fang Jijing, so he just said, "Let's continue to find someone."
As they continued to go deeper, the mist and fragrance had covered everything, and the visibility around them became quite low. What made people even more alarmed was that they heard a strange dull sound nearby.
Lian Jiashuo had never heard that kind of voice, it appeared around from time to time, but its position was not fixed.
It was as if something was watching them from behind the mist, ready to strike at any moment.
Lian Jiashuo and the others had concentrated their minds and dared not speak casually. Even if they insisted on the relatively safe Fang Jijing in the academy, they had already sensed something was wrong at this time.
Danger is around and may erupt at any time.
"What exactly is it?" Fang Jijing stepped back carefully close to Lian Jiashuo, and asked the other two in a low voice.
Song Huai's face was tense, and his body had already adjusted to the best fighting state.
Lian Jiashuo pondered silently. He had never heard such a movement, but he always felt that it had a sense of déjà vu.
The location they are in is an artificial forest in the field training ground. Every small movement will cause the leaves in the forest to shake slightly. Lian Jiashuo listened carefully to the sound of the leaves shaking, and finally couldn't help lowering his voice and asked: "Are there any wild beasts in this training ground?"
Song Huai didn't think of this. After all, the people who attacked him since he was a child were all human beings, and he had never faced any wild beasts.
Fang Jijing was also stunned when he heard this, but he quickly came back to his senses, nodded and said, "There are wild animals released in the field training ground, but they are all artificially trained animals. Although they are relatively large,But they will obey people's orders, and even during the assessment process, they will not really hurt people."
Fang Jijing didn't feel any danger.
But Song Huai sneered: "It's controllable again. In this competition, you said it was controllable, but in reality?"
Fang Jijing still wanted to argue, but Lian Jiashuo said suddenly, "Is there a possibility that this strange fragrance in the air now has an effect not only on humans, but also on beasts?"
Fang Jijing's expression suddenly changed.
He opened his mouth and reluctantly said, "I really didn't think about this possibility..."
While he was speaking, a huge shadow rushed towards him swiftly behind him.
"careful!"
After Lian Jiashuo realized the danger, he immediately rushed over to help, but Song Huai's movements were much faster than him.
Song Huai first grabbed Lian Jiashuo, then stepped in front of Fang Jijing in two steps, holding Fang Jijing's collar in one hand, and led him away from the attack of the giant.
After avoiding this fatal attack, they finally saw the whole picture of the black shadow in front of them.
Although it was a bad premonition, Lian Jiashuo's conjecture was indeed correct. The one who attacked them was really a beast with a head as tall as two adults.
The interstellar beast is far taller and more ferocious than the beasts Lian Jiashuo has seen in the normal world before. The eyes of this beast are red, and it is obviously out of the scope of "controllable". The oppression emanating from this huge creatureThis feeling was something that Lian Jiashuo had never experienced before.
Not only Lian Jiashuo, but even Fang Jijing and Song Huai's face turned pale at this moment.
No matter what, they are still in the shape of children. Compared with this kind of creatures that are several circles larger than adults, their strength can only be said to be insignificant.
"Run!"
After reacting, Lian Jiashuo thought that this was the best way.
He quickly rushed to Song Huai and the others, took Song Huai's hand and ran to the back of the woods.
Song Huai was still holding Fang Jijing in his hand, and the three of them rushed over in a hurry, each carrying one.
The reaction of the beast behind was also not slow. It obviously did not intend to let go of the prey in front of it. After roaring twice, it chased after it vigorously.
Lian Jiashuo still remembers the last time he was in such a hurry, when he went to help Song Huai, that time he ran after him with the belief of saving people, but this time it was for survival, not only himself, but also the other two behind him.people.
It was only now that he finally understood what the real danger was lurking in the training ground. No matter how strong they were in fighting humans, it was still different from fighting wild beasts.
But with their speed, it is quite difficult to run past the beasts.
Even Jiashuo's ears were filled with the wind, and he had no time to catch his breath, but before they found a safe place, he felt a weight behind him, and then saw Fang Jijing falling to the ground with his hands on his knees.
"Why is it so useless?" Song Huai still had time to say something.
Lian Jiashuo quickly pulled him up: "How are you doing?"
Fang Jijing gasped for breath: "I..."
Before he could finish his words, a fishy and wet breath spewed towards his face, and the beast jumped in front of them in such an instant, opening its exaggerated huge mouth, showing its sharp fangs to them.
"Get out of the way!" Song Huai kicked him away before Fang Jijing could react.
Fang Jijing was kicked until he rolled on the ground twice, stood up and said angrily, "Song Huai! Did you do it on purpose..."
But when he saw Song Huai struggling against the beast, he couldn't say what he complained just now. Even if he hated Song Huai, this time it was indeed Song Huai who protected him, and also fell into the trap because of himself.in a predicament.
In this situation, running is no longer possible, they can only fight.
Fang Jijing let go of his fear temporarily, and rushed to the beast.
As for Lian Jiashuo, he didn't need to think about it at all. As early as the moment Song Huai rushed in front of the beast, he had already rushed there. He was Song Huai's companion and was responsible for protecting Song Huai's safety.Song Huai's reason for escaping.
Although there is a lot of actual combat training, and even Jiashuo and Song Huai are considered to have good fighting abilities among their peers, this is the first time they have fought a beast.
This battle was a bit embarrassing for them. It took the three of them a long time to cooperate with each other to attract the attention of the beast. After such a long time of tossing, the beast finally fainted.
When the beast's huge body fell heavily on the ground, unable to get up again, the three of them leaned beside them panting, feeling that this battle was unprecedentedly exhausting.
After all, they had dealt with a large creature that was almost invincible. The three of them looked at each other, feeling like they had survived a catastrophe.
Lian Jiashuo couldn't help opening his hands, lying on the ground and laughing.
Song Huai was lying beside him, and when he heard the laughter, he unconsciously turned his head to look at him, even Song Huai himself didn't notice, while he was panting, there was a slight smile on the corner of his lips: "why are you laughing?"
Lian Jiashuo looked up at the sky and said, "Did we cooperate well just now?"
Song Huai said, "Barely, barely."
Lian Jiashuo automatically translated contentedly: "Young master even said that, that's pretty good."
Normally, Song Huai would have refuted angrily at this time, but he was too tired to refute after an exhausting battle just now. He was silent for a while, staring at Lian Jiashuo's smile, and finally said: "Well... you guys are doing pretty well, right?"
At this time, Fang Jijing next to them also said with some emotion: "Me too, it's also the first time for me to cooperate and fight with others so happily."
As he said that, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Song Huai frowned in disgust: "What are you laughing at?"
Fang Jijing was startled, looked at Song Huai, then at Lian Jiashuo: "It wasn't just me, even Jiashuo laughed too, why am I the only one not allowed to laugh?"
Song Huai said with a cold face, "I feel disgusted when you smile."
Fang Jijing: "Song Huai!"
"..."
Even Jiashuo didn't stand up to persuade the two of them when they were bickering. He could tell that the hostility in the conversation between the two had dissipated very little, and the current bickering was just a habitual action engraved on their bodies.
It seems that although the accident was dangerous, it also brought a good development.
The two couldn't quarrel after that, because the rescue team from the college also rushed over, and they quickly sent Lian Jiashuo and the three of them out of the training ground, and sent the beast they knocked down to another place to control it.
Although Lian Jiashuo and the others only had scratches at most, they were still sent to the infirmary. Wen Yu hurriedly wiped the wounds and applied bandages for them. At this time, he heard the news from the rescue teamNews, Lian Jiashuo and others finally figured out the cause of the accident.
It turned out that one of the participating teams tried to cheat and used hallucinogenic gas against the other team, but it turned out that the gas actually made the beasts thrown in the training ground go berserk.
Fortunately, the other teams hid faster, so there were no problems with human lives.
Now that the beast has been dealt with, and all members of the missing team have been found, it is the best result that there are no other problems.
The original teacher in charge of the competition learned of the incident after returning to the academy, and expressed his gratitude to Fang Jijing and the others. If they hadn't controlled the beast in time, something bigger would have happened.
But the teacher also taught them a lesson at the same time. After all, they broke into the training ground without waiting for rescue, and they were the ones who almost had an accident.
In any case, in the end this matter was perfectly resolved.
For Lian Jiashuo, he doesn't care much about being reprimanded or praised. What he cares most about is that this incident solves the matter that he originally thought would take him several years to solve.
Song Huai and Fang Jijing were finally able to coexist peacefully.
Although they still bicker from time to time and occasionally fight each other, they are no longer at the level of fighting each other anytime they don't like each other.
The real college life of Lian Jiashuo and Song Huai has just begun.
