Jiang Hui looked at the man lying on the ground tearing the bread like a wolf, and then handed him half a bottle of his own water.
That was all. After all, she only had one bottle left, which the instructor had left for her before he left.
But she was really confused. Aren’t they all on the same training march? Why is this one so hungry? Or is this classmate so hungry because he has a big appetite and doesn’t eat enough? But he shouldn’t be crying for help, right
In the dim light, Jiang Hui looked at his hands that had been wet just now. Now there seemed to be nothing sticky on them, and they were dry. He rubbed them and felt a little stinging, but he still didn't notice anything unusual.
The other person ate two pieces of bread and a whole energy bar before stopping.
Jiang Hui was quietly waiting for the other party to calm down and tell her what happened. She had a vague feeling that things might not be that simple.
"Our instructor was trapped by star beasts in the woods. I don't know what's going on now? I ran a long way, but there was no sound from the other side, and there was no reinforcement—" The man was full and had the strength to shout, but after the other party figured out his thoughts, he became more panicked.
"What?" Jiang Hui's voice started working before her brain did.
What's going on here? She understood every word, but she couldn't understand why they were put together.
"Wait, explain it first. What's going on with the instructor and the star beast?"
"Have you forgotten everything? We gathered at the A1 training ground and were assigned to the seventh team. We have the same instructor, of course." The other party was a little anxious, afraid that Jiang Hui would deny it out loud.
"Are you in the same team with me?" Jiang Hui had understood it now, but he still couldn't believe it and repeated it unconsciously to confirm.
"Yes." She heard the other party say so.
It turned out that after Jiang Hui was placed at the back of the team, their progress was much faster. After passing through several checkpoints, they quickly arrived at the last stop, which was about ten kilometers away from the finish line. It would take less than an hour to walk there.
Everyone was very happy to hear this.
Thinking that they were about to finish this long training with no end in sight, the freshmen, who had been training to a point of listlessness, became full of energy as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood. Not only did they walk faster, but the whole team's mental outlook seemed to have changed.
But at the last stop, something went wrong.
This is also a rain belt, and it is a fixed thunderstorm belt. No matter day or night, there are always winds, rains and thunders all year round. It is not easy for people to travel here without transportation.
However, since they had persevered through such a difficult journey before, the current difficulties were nothing.
Everyone thought so too, but not long after they entered the forest, they heard unusual movements around them.
Everyone wondered if it would be another surprise attack like last time - maybe it was another mid-sentence training arranged by the school for them.
But their instructor, who had been silent all this time, became extremely alert.
The other party suddenly shouted at everyone to stop, and gathered everyone together. Then he looked around, frowning, and his whole body was in a tense state.
The strange behavior of the team leader also infected the freshmen. They all became uneasy because of the reaction of the team leader, and the surrounding environment seemed to be really starting to become a little abnormal.
An indescribable sour smell spread.
It was not the smell of acid rain that they were already familiar with, but an even more unpleasant sour smell with a foul odor, accompanied by an indescribable feeling of oppression that made it hard to breathe.
It was very similar to the aura they had felt from their class teacher and some instructors, but it was different from the oppressive feeling from the instructors. It was more aggressive and aggressive, making them feel as if they were facing their natural enemies.
If the students here were not freshmen, they would probably be able to tell what this so-called feeling of oppression is. It is aggressive mental power, and it comes from non-human creatures.
"Rustle—"
As the sense of oppression grew stronger, the forest, which originally only had the sounds of wind, rain and thunder, began to be filled with some trivial sounds, like the subtle sound of insects shaking their antennae, and the sound of something dragging on the uneven stone slabs...
Such noises became more and more frequent, and everyone could clearly feel that a group of unknown creatures were gradually approaching them and watching them.
Although all the people present were freshmen with little experience, and some were even students of ordinary majors, they were all interstellar people who were born and raised here. When they were young, they read a lot of enlightenment books, and when they grew up, they continued to absorb information from various departments of the star network, and they had heard of many cases of humans being attacked by star beasts.
But this is not the training route arranged by the school, how could a star beast appear here? Is this also a training project arranged by the school
It shouldn't be possible. An academy without a license cannot hold a practical exercise with real star beasts.
This type of activity can generally only be held by universities or certain colleges of higher learning after approval and careful preparation.
Therefore, it is impossible for real star beasts to appear in the training of secondary colleges, and what they are encountering now is obviously not a group of fake star beasts disguised by the school.
If the fakery could be done to this extent, wouldn't it be a little too real? Besides, if it was fake, the team leader wouldn't be so nervous.
They actually guessed it right, so it’s certainly not false.
After all, these freshmen knew nothing and were a bit like newborn calves that were not afraid of tigers. They just made their own guesses about the situation and their judgment based on the feedback from their superiors.
If the school really had made such an arrangement and the instructors pretended to coordinate and scare them, they would still have misjudged the situation.
But Mace knew that this could not have been arranged by the school, because what was surrounding them now was a group of real star beasts, and there were quite a few of them, all standing outside the information circle and looking at them covetously.
He was also a military academy student who had received formal training and had actually been on the battlefield, so he could be considered to have made some achievements.
Although he was later transferred to the permanent star system for some secret reasons, he still had the qualities he had before, and he quickly and accurately determined the basic conditions of these star beasts.
This should be a group of insectoid star beasts of a relatively small size, about 40 to 50 in number, small in size, and not poisonous. As for the mental power level of a single one, judging from the aura it emits, it should only be around D-level, its appearance and type are unknown, and its surface strength cannot be determined at present.
However, no matter how small the scale is, or how weak the individual combat power is, it is still a star beast. And the only one in their team who can fight right now is Mace...
