No wonder.
Jiang Hui connected together a series of doubts that had just occurred to him, and another doubt arose in his mind.
Then why hasn’t the school noticed anything unusual and sent someone to deal with the matter
This was something Jiang Hui couldn't understand. The commotion was so big, and the instructors didn't have any communication tools like them. Why didn't the school respond
Jiang Hui did not blindly believe the school, but felt that this was too abnormal. Even in the relatively less developed Blue Star, such an oversight would not have occurred.
Jiang Hui believed that the school must not have relaxed its surveillance on them while they were training here.
So what went wrong
Is there anyone involved in this, or is there someone deliberately causing the current situation
Jiang Hui said she had her own considerations.
So after this classmate had been talking incoherently for a long time, he finally heard Jiang Hui ask: "So what do you think should be done?"
She actually preferred to stay where she was and wait and see. Because from Jiang Hui's perspective, the whole thing was static, and all the things and information only came from external feedback. She had no sense of reality for the time being, so the subsequent actions needed to be judged urgently.
But from what he said, he had other ideas? Or should I say that this was the help he wanted from her.
Jiang Hui looked at the other party silently, with questioning eyes.
———————
So she must be crazy, coming along even though she knew it was stupid.
What on earth was she thinking? If there really were a group of star beasts here as the other party said, then why did she think she could hit them at will, or even escape from them...
Was it her not-so-bright brain or her arms that were thinner than sticks? If she encountered a star beast, she would probably just lie down and wait for death.
But I don't know what she was thinking at the time. Was it the uncontrollable restless gene in her genes or some kind of instinct that made her follow me here for some unknown reason
Although the other party kept assuring her that he had a very fast temporary means of transportation, even if they encountered a star beast, they could just squeeze in and disappear in a flash. And he kept showing it to her for fear that she didn't believe him, saying that it was hanging in the space button around his neck.
So now Jiang Hui came here with the other party.
"Are you sure it's this direction?" Jiang Hui confirmed with the other party again.
The boy named Hillman nodded. "I bravely went back to take a look and saw traces of the mechas fighting all the way there. There was no sound anymore."
Jiang Hui glanced at him silently. This guy is a real warrior. He dared to fight back alone when the situation was unclear. He was lucky not to be taken away by the star beast because of his rash actions. No wonder he was so hungry just now. His mobility was extraordinary.
But what is the difference between her and the others now? If she dies in vain, it would be a stupid death. No one will call her a warrior after her death.
However, the other party provided effective clues, so Jiang Hui had no choice but to continue following him.
"Don't lie to me, otherwise I promise I will strangle you to death before I am killed by the star beast." Jiang Hui said in a cold tone.
The person in front suddenly stiffened his back, but soon relaxed and continued to walk forward calmly.
Jiang Hui certainly knew that this trip was risky, and since she was here, she was not afraid of risks, so she called it a stupid act. But her willingness to be stupid did not mean she was willing to be deceived. After all, she did not trust this person who she had never met before.
The two walked for a while longer, and fortunately they did not encounter any star beasts or dangers along the way.
However, they gradually realized that they were not on the wrong path, because as they followed Hillman's instructions, the sour smell became stronger and stronger, and it was faintly turning from pure sour to fishy.
Jiang Hui only now realized that this indescribable sour gas was actually secreted by the star beasts that were besieging the instructors.
But according to Hillman, what they smelled at that time was a more pungent smell. Now, although it is still sour and smelly, it feels fishier, a bit like blood.
The two of them silently covered their mouths and noses with cloths and walked forward with difficulty.
But the closer they got to their destination, the more careful they became and the slower they walked. Both of them were students of the Combat Soldier Department and had a certain level of mental power. Although they had not yet officially enrolled, they were already able to use their mental power in a rough way. For example, Jiang Hui could now separate two mental filaments to sense the surrounding situation.
However, she was not sure about the others. She only saw that Hillman seemed to be using his mental power to be on alert.
For a moment, both of them were speechless.
"Go this way—" Jiang Hui suddenly stopped and said to the person in front.
Hillman seemed a little confused, but he quickly accepted the girl's suggestion. The two of them turned a small corner along the original route and went to the other side.
Sure enough, the stench here became stronger and stronger, and they even began to smell a strong stench of blood - obviously not coming from humans.
But the closer she got to the other side, the more dead silence there was, without even a hint of spiritual fluctuation. No, it couldn't be said that there was none at all, and Jiang Hui was attracted by this little movement. Her subconscious told her to come over here, quickly!
Perhaps because of their hesitation, the two walked slower and slower until—
Suddenly, she stepped on something hard, which was both soft and hard. She stepped on it without realizing it, and it felt like a bag of flesh and blood burst, with juice flowing out with a "sizzling" sound.
Jiang Hui didn't know what he had thought of. The hairs on his body stood up. He didn't know whether to put one foot down or lift it up. He felt completely unwell.
She was a little stiff and tried to look down to see what it was, when she heard someone shout, "Wait."
"Let me help you take a look." The other person came over first and kicked the thing under her feet away.
“It’s nothing, just a rotten fruit.” Hillman said to Jiang Hui calmly, and reminded her to be careful with her steps, as there might be a lot of rotten fruits like this here.
Jiang Hui felt better then: "Really? Thank you."
Then suddenly, a flash of lightning appeared, revealing the scenery that their searchlight could not reach.
There are indeed many "rotten fruits", but they are still round and "bright", and the undamaged parts still reveal the unique inorganic texture of insect eyes when they were alive.
Realizing what he might have stepped on, Jiang Hui felt the hair he had just smoothed down suddenly stand up, and his back was covered in sticky sweat.
Hillman: …
In fact, what he saw just now was a damaged child-like organ of a star beast. He wanted to hide it from the other party and said it was a rotten fruit, but he didn't expect that it would be revealed immediately.
So having too much imagination is not a good thing.
