Baichuan campus has many areas, and many of them are actually worth further exploration.
For example, in the area where the principal once worked, there are many documents that Bai Wu has not yet discovered.
The war was imminent, and there were two areas that concerned him the most. In his opinion, if he could make good use of these two areas, he might still have a chance of winning the battle.
One is the teaching building.
In the teaching building, if you don’t answer the questions according to the rules, even Cain will find it difficult to escape.
This rule is probably not able to restrain the Tic-Tac-Toe-level monsters, but it might be useful for evil creatures with strange names such as merchants and blacksmiths.
"When the real battle comes, although Baichuan City's combat power is not bad, it has to hide in the dark as much as possible. A head-on confrontation is the most foolish."
"The enemy's attack will no longer be an invasion of a few generals. There will also be a large number of evil ones. Not to mention the T-shaped level that has never appeared, I'm afraid that the force of T-shaped level alone will be more difficult to deal with than in the mechanical city."
"I think this must be their main target. Before the real battle comes, I should consider how to participate in it... Whether to stay behind the scenes or take the lead, this must be planned carefully. This teaching building can be put to good use. At least I don't think these evil creatures can answer the questions inside correctly."
The teaching building has become an examination room. Once you enter, you will be forced to take the test. It is a powerful control hub.
Even answering the questions incorrectly would result in negative attributes. Apart from the powerful force like the Tic-Tac-Toe level that could break the rules, most of the evil ones would have a hard time coming out.
But there is also a problem that must be solved.
"My people can't just go in, or they won't be able to get out, so how do I solve this problem?"
In order to attract the target into this area, you naturally need bait. How to hook the fish without damaging the bait is a very important question.
Bai Wu had some answers in his mind. He then turned his sight to the second important area - the East Campus.
If the teaching building is an area that traps the enemy, then the East Campus is a secret altar that can resurrect one's own side.
Those combative students who entered the East Campus fought there all day long, and would not stop until they died.
The dead evil ones will be resurrected in a very short time.
"There is no doubt that people will die in battle... But if I can make good use of this rule, maybe I can turn the casualties into an advantage."
"No... We have to go one step further. It would be best if we could find a way to transfer the body to the East Campus, but then the East Campus would definitely attract attention."
There were still many things to arrange, so Bai Wu stood on the top of the teaching building, overlooking the view until the sky became dimly lit. Then he finally had some idea, and at the same time opened the return wheel, ready to go to the tower.
…
…
Outside the black fog, Shengxiang College on Orlo Island.
After Tang Jing returned to the dormitory, he pulled the curtains over his bed. Several roommates did not come back.
Most boys of this age are keen on various activities, and Tang Jing is no exception, but he is somewhat unsociable.
After all, some of his views on Black Mist made everyone think he was a little crazy.
However, Shengxiang College on Orlo Island is a college for Sheng people. Outside the school, there are people of different skin colors, so students of the same skin color in the school will be more or less friendly.
There was no extreme bullying, and Tang Jing was also used to this kind of loneliness.
Ever since he came back from the hospital, he would return to the dormitory once his classes were over.
Not long ago, Dr. Kang gave Tang Jing a contact number. He still remembered what Dr. Kang said:
"Actually, I have a friend who is a psychiatrist in Menan. He once had a patient with similar symptoms to yours. He was overly panicked by the black fog and claimed to have seen some strange visions. I didn't pay much attention to him before, but now I think you might be interested in this person."
"Of course, I still hold the same view as before. The black fog is normal. I still think you are overly sensitive and worrying too much. Fortunately, you don't have any problems in other aspects. Study hard after you are discharged from the hospital. If there are some things we can't avoid, we might as well live in the present."
Doctor Kang was very caring towards Tang Jing, and Tang Jing kept it in mind. Not long after, he contacted the patient that Doctor Kang mentioned.
Zhou John, also known as Zhou Zhi, is a chubby man in his thirties. He is a ride-hailing driver in Meinan.
Menan is a developed country. Black people account for one-third of the population, and the proportion is still increasing. Many people like to come here to buy various luxury goods.
Zhou Zhi makes a living here. Although he is a driver, he is doing pretty well. At least he has enough food and clothing.
However, it has also received complaints from passengers for spreading false information and creating panic.
Knowing this, Tang Jing guessed what the nihilistic remarks were and what the panic was.
Tang Jing directly described what he saw and dreamed, which directly resonated with Zhou Zhi!
The two people quickly became friends, and each became more convinced that what they saw was not an illusion or delusion.
Shortly afterwards, Zhou Zhi invited Tang Jing to join a mysterious chat group.
There are more than a dozen people in this group, living in various places around the world, including Fuyo Old Island, Fuyo New Island, Orlo Island, Menam, Paka Island...
Without exception, all of the dozen or so people were from Sheng.
"Now that we are here, we should be honest with each other. But I hope that you, the newcomer, can tell us what you saw. If it is consistent with ours, we can trust you and tell you some more unbelievable truths."
This is considered a ceremony for joining the group. It seems that there is a person in the group who can judge, based on the description in each person's dream, whether this person is telling the truth and has certain potential; or judge that this person just wants to get in and is telling lies.
Tang Jing easily passed the test to join the group and even got the title of A-level black fog sensitive person.
He thought it was normal, including the significance of this chat group. He also thought it was just an ordinary... communication group for like-minded people.
But in fact, the owner of this group spent a lot of effort collecting information on the descendants of each black fog disease patient.
Tang Jing did not realize that he had already begun the journey against the black fog.
After leaving the hospital and returning to school, he would go back to the dormitory after school every day, draw the bed curtains, and communicate with these people.
The same is true today, and this time is different from the past. Two people in the group whose avatars have always been gray suddenly have color, which means that these two people who joined the group earlier are online.
Among the dozen or so people before, everyone expressed their own opinions. The once prosperous country was hidden in the black fog, but that place had been distorted, and there were all kinds of twisted rules and various powerful monsters in it.
The black fog was spreading, and everyone who entered it died in it. Either they died for real, or they turned into monsters.
The origin of the black fog is unknown, but many people's dreams have one thing in common: a tower and a well.
It seems inappropriate to describe it as a well, but in the dream everyone naturally called it a well.
This is the common point. Apart from this, what everyone sees is actually different. Some people focus on Baichuan City, some on Food City, and some on Shudu.
Although they had exchanged information with each other these days, Tang Jing always felt that something was missing.
For example - the significance of everyone gathering here.
Tang Jing asked:
The black fog is expanding. I think it is a force that we cannot resist. If one day, the monsters in the black fog come out, what should we do? We can organize the information that everyone has seen, but now we should think about how to make people feel the expansion of the black fog area... It's as if there is a force that is modifying their memories.
Zhou Zhi echoed:
Yes, what Tang Jing said is what I have always wanted to say. I was even complained about because of this matter. Damn it.
It seems that everyone is familiar with it. Coincidentally, this is the reason why I have called everyone together to discuss it. Have you ever thought about this question: why are we the only ones who can perceive the world inside the black fog and the spread of the black fog
The person who was speaking was the one who joined the group very early but had not shown up during this period.
Tang Jing didn't know this person's name. His online name was Lao Zhao, and everyone always called him Lao Zhao.
Why? Tang Jing asked.
The answer is - maybe the Black Mist is expecting us to go in.
Are you kidding? Lao Zhao, no one who has entered the black fog can come out alive. An old group member said.
I know, but we are different from them. Of course, when I say this, you may think that I will encourage you to go into the black fog, but in fact, it is not. I will let my partner go into the black fog, and any theory needs to be verified. My partner will do it.
Hello everyone, my name is Carlos, Sheng Ji's name is Yan Qi, you can call me Lao Yan. Lao Zhao and I have discussed for a long time, and we think that if we just keep expressing our ideas, people will just think we are crazy. We must go deep into the black fog and find some key things, or even find someone in the black fog...
Yan Qi’s avatar shows a big beard. Both he and Lao Zhao give people a mature feeling, but they are obviously the crazy type.
I am different from you. Ever since I sensed the black fog, I felt it was inviting me in. Yes, we all think we should be on guard against the spread of the black fog, but have you ever thought about what if we can't be on guard? At least before the black fog spreads and catches the world off guard, we can try to enter the black fog and adapt to it.
Yan Qi's words made people wonder how to respond. Ten seconds later, Tang Jing said:
But no one had been in there before.
Yes, the roads were explored by groping. Those who entered before were elite troops from various countries, but they were different from us. They did not receive any enlightenment. We can detect the changes in the black fog and even the time of the changes. We can dream about the contents of the world inside. I think... this means that maybe we can enter.
Have you ever thought that all this is wrong, that it is just your illusion? Tang Jing asked.
Yan Qi, who was working in a newspaper office in the distance, smiled. He had recently written a report satirizing the country he was in for being both right and wrong on racial human rights, and listed many cases of Chinese people being suppressed in the workplace.
So much so that the current resignation status is "not yet resigned".
That is, as a newspaper writer, he has no manuscripts to write and his career may end in a few days.
Seven hundred years is enough time for many people to forget history, but the Chinese people have been excluded and it has become a tradition, which has not changed for seven hundred years.
It's strange to say, but human civilization has progressed very slowly in the past seven hundred years, and it seems that everyone has entered a state of technological stagnation.
Or maybe... there is a powerful setting that constantly makes people's cognition return to a certain point in time.
Yan Qi and Tang Jing had both thought about this, whether people's memories that had been modified were not just about the spread of the black fog.
Maybe people's memories have been modified in many aspects
In short, Yan Qi had no motivation for his current life. He knew that even if he had a cynical heart, he could only be mediocre in such a world.
He wanted to do something big, so he and Lao Zhao discussed it and came up with what happened today.
Of course I thought this was my wrong judgment, and there was no basis for it, but we always have to go in and test it. If I die, Lao Zhao will help me take care of my funeral and take care of my family. If I come back alive, he will also help me... spread the truth of the matter.
Although the possibility of me coming back alive is very low, what if? If I come back alive, I believe we can all enter the black fog area. Maybe we have a certain mission. The test when you joined the group before, the details you saw in your dream, is a level assessment.
Lao Zhao and I believe that the higher the assessment level, the more adaptable we will be after entering the black fog area.
Tang Jing felt that this statement made some sense, but was too subjective in most places.
Among the sixteen people, only two were A-level, and the rest were B-level and D-level. The details of the evaluation level were also made by people who had never entered the black fog, so it was of little reference value.
This statement is unreliable, Tang Jing still admires Yan Qi very much.
Only this person has the awareness of death, which makes him worthy of admiration no matter what.
Everything seems normal in the world now, but only a small group of people know that a doomsday disaster is eroding the world bit by bit.
The monsters in the black fog will eventually come out one day, and the huge cruise ship like an ark seen in the dream will definitely break through the black fog.
Is all that awaits this world to do but wait for death
With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Tang Jing admired Yan Qi even more. Because this person really worried about the world and wanted to contribute his strength to be a pioneer.
I don't have such courage, I admire you very much. If there is anything else we can help you with, please let me know, Tang Jing said.
Yan Qi said:
Not really. Lao Zhao will help me. I will enter the black fog area in the near future. Some of you are students, and some are already working, but you are all relatively young. I believe that all of us will find our own mission after the disaster, but before that, you have to protect yourself. If you have any trouble, you can contact Lao Zhao at any time.
Tang Jing realized a crucial problem. To get close to the black fog area... he had to bypass the armed forces of various countries, and it could only be transported by ship and air.
This is simply not something an ordinary person can do. Who is this Old Zhao
Tang Jing asked this question directly:
Lao Zhao seems very reliable
It was Lao Zhao who answered this question:
My Black Mist agility level is only C, which is lower than everyone here, but I do have an advantage that is not worth mentioning.
What is it? asked one person in the group.
I have money.
Yan Qi added:
Lao Zhao has endless money. He is still observing you all. When the time is right, he will gather us together. I believe you will be amazed when you see that place.
No matter what, having endless money is definitely a superpower.
Tang Jing suddenly had a feeling. What if... Yan Qi really came back from the black fog area, and really saw those terrible monsters, and even had some power to fight against the monsters...
That means that everyone here has such power. The current configuration... isn't it just a group of super-rich people and a group of supernatural masters
Only then did he realize that this chat group was not simple.
Of course, the premise of all this is that someone can really come back from the black fog area.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~End of this chapter~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm working on it, but I don't know if I can finish it tonight. I think it's a bit difficult to write... I'm a bit stuck in the later plot. There will be a plot line outside the black fog, but it won't dominate the main plot. The protagonist of this book is the white fog, whether inside or outside the fog. I'll get back on track in the next chapter.
