Chapter 115 Evening Study (End)

The question of whether going out without leaving a note will have any other consequences does need to be verified.

The advance troops were Lu Chongnian, Ye Sui, Su Mingyun and Jing Qiao.

They turned around immediately after stepping out of the classroom, wanting to see if they could come back, but they were blocked by an invisible wall - Lu Chongnian was right, they could not come back.

In this way, in order to prevent all of them from being "killed" outside before finding the hidden players, they can only go out in groups and search in relays.

After Lu Chongnian and the others left, Mu Yu opened the "Polytechnic Campus Navigation App".

The map still only shows the four surrounding classrooms.

Mu Yu was reciting the knowledge points while studying the map. After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't figure out what it was and sighed.

…

Lu Chongnian came back eight minutes later, and he was the only one left.

The temperature in late autumn was very low. He held the door frame with one hand, but his neck and forehead were covered with sweat.

Because he had just run vigorously, veins on his arms were bulging and his chest was heaving violently.

He looked very tired, but he still forced himself to repeat the results of their team's search in a clear and logical manner.

"We smashed all the water pipes in the toilet on the sixth floor, but we couldn't find anyone." He threw the hammer that Fu Xiaoju had lent them into the classroom. The hammer easily passed through the barrier and was caught by Fu Xiaoju. "We couldn't get into the classroom, but there was nothing unusual anywhere we could see, and there was no change in the markings of any location on the map."

"How could this happen?" Hong Yang frowned.

Although I thought that hidden players would become harder and harder to find, this time even the monster's lair disappeared directly from the map?

"What about the other three people? Are they all sleeping outside?" Jin Qian asked worriedly.

Lu Zhongnian nodded tiredly: "Yes, I moved them all to the first floor."

...This is an unimaginable amount of work.

Everyone admired him.

"Okay, let's go," Mu Chenxi rolled up his sleeves again and said, "Let's go look outside this time."

Fu Xiaoju: "Outdoors?"

"There shouldn't be any clues in the teaching building. The copies won't use the same tricks repeatedly, so there's no need to consider the rooftop and behind the classroom wall. Apart from that, is there anything else worth noting in this building?"

"No more," Mu Chenxi said calmly, "Then the only remaining place we have never searched is the outdoor space on both sides of the teaching building."

"But... aren't those two vacant lots obvious at a glance?" Huang Jiajia asked in a low voice.

There is nothing on the north side except a ginkgo tree, and there is nothing on the south side either, just a bare patch of ground.

"Who knows? Let's find out first, otherwise it's a waste of time to daydream about it," Mu Chenxi said as he stepped out of the classroom. "I just need one more person to come over here, and we'll climb out of the toilet on the first floor. The north side asked those of you who stayed in the classroom to find a way to climb out of the window."

After all, the toilets on each floor are on the south side, and there are only classrooms on the north side.

But if they went out without leaving a note, they would not be able to enter any classroom, which naturally included the classrooms on the first floor, so they could not reach the open space on the north side.

Old players have experience in this kind of work, so Mu Yu said, "Okay, leave it to us!"

Mu Chenxi and Fu Xiaoju set off.

After they left, Lu Zhongnian slowly sat down against the wall.

He was really sleepy.

Mu Yu was a little worried. As if he could feel his gaze, Lu Zhongnian raised his eyelashes and said in a low voice, "Go, I'm fine."

"...Then you sleep here for a while." Mu Yu sighed.

If the copy could be completed successfully, it would probably end while Lu Zhongnian was asleep, and they would never be able to say goodbye properly and separate again.

Just as he was about to turn around, something touched his hand.

Looking down, I saw a small paper crane fell to the ground.

Mu Yu was stunned.

Lu Chongnian leaned against the wall and looked at him, his eyes and eyebrows showing a gentle smile: "... before the copy started, I folded it while thinking of you."

My heart skipped a beat.

Mu Yu felt as if his entire chest was numb after hearing these words.

He bent down, picked up the paper crane, held it gently between his fingers, and looked down at it.

...This was obviously not the first time he received this little gift, but every time, Lu Zhongnian seemed to give him a completely different feeling.

Did he realize his loss?

Are you comforting him?

Mu Yu's ears felt hot and he felt a little embarrassed. He pursed his lips, but a smile appeared at the corners of his lips.

He raised his eyes and moved his lips——

Lu Chongnian had closed his eyes and fell asleep quietly.

Mu Yu was speechless.

After a moment, he laughed.

"Good night, Lu Chongnian." He whispered.

9:19

How to move from the classroom on the 2nd floor to the 1st floor?

It’s very simple, just use a hemp rope!

The rope I exchanged from the vending machine hasn’t been thrown away yet!

There were only four people left in the classroom: Hong Yang, Mu Yu, Jin Qian and Huang Jiajia.

Mu Yu and Hong Yang collapsed within three minutes. They wanted Huang Jiajia to go out and check the situation first, but Huang Jiajia was afraid of heights, even on the second floor.

He shook his head repeatedly, his face pale as he said, "I really can't!"

Jin Qian stepped forward: "Let me do it."

She decisively climbed up to the window sill, took two deep breaths, grabbed the rope tightly, and slid down nimbly.

The three of them looked down, and Mu Yu shouted, "Be careful and take your time!"

Huang Jiajia's face showed confusion and shame. Hong Yang patted his shoulder and said, "Come on, there's nothing you can do about being afraid of heights. Think about it in a positive way. Your goddess is not paying attention to you at all."

Huang Jiajia burst into tears - she wasn't comforted at all!

Jin Qian successfully reached the first floor and opened the app following the instructions of Mu Yu and others.

She circled the open space, especially around the ginkgo tree, but—

"No, I don't see anything and there is no change on the map!" Jin Qian shouted.

Mu Yu frowned.

"The monsters are playing hide-and-seek with us?" Hong Yang racked his brains. "Could it be that the monsters this time are very small, and their nests are also very small, so they are directly ignored by the map? For example, if there is an ant hole on the ground, it is impossible for it to be marked on the map, right?"

"I don't think this is the reason," Mu Yu thought for a moment and said, "The last round must be related to the 'person in the water pipe'. Even if it's not the water pipe in the toilet, it must be something that is very similar in shape to the water pipe. This thing must be related to monsters and hidden players, and its size cannot be very small..."

But why is there no clue at all on the map?

Also, what else might exist in the teaching building that is shaped like a water pipe?

Mu Yu thought for a long time, and suddenly, his eyes drifted towards the ginkgo tree.

He paused, and his eyes changed.

At this moment, the entire teaching building suddenly shook violently!

They didn't react in time and were almost all shaken to the ground. Huang Jiajia quickly hugged the windowsill, while Mu Yu and Hong Yang held onto the wall and the table!

"Earthquake?!" Huang Jiajia shouted in shock.

But how could an earthquake occur in a copy?

Mu Yu and Hong Yang were also a little stunned.

Heavy footsteps were heard outside the classroom door. They looked back and saw Fu Xiaoju stumbling and falling at the door!

Fu Xiaoju raised his head and shouted at them, "Monster, monster is underground! It's a fake ginkgo tree, it's coming towards you, probably going to attack the real tree!"

The teaching building shook more violently, as if something was trying to lift the entire building up!

Huang Jiajia actually flipped out of the window. He was shocked and quickly grabbed the rope, sliding down while screaming!

Hong Yang asked in confusion: "The monster is underground?"

Mu Yu understood: "The vertical depth that the map can show is limited. There is a height difference between the first floor of the teaching building and the actual outdoor ground. If the monster is hiding deeper underground, we may not be able to find it no matter which floor of the teaching building we are on!"

Fu Xiaoju simply lay on the ground to resist the shaking floor.

He shouted, "Yes, we didn't find anything when we went down just now, so Brother Xi and Brother Xi said to try digging down. As a result, we dug less than a meter and put the phone into the pit. The map showed that there was a 'ginkgo tree' at that location! This thing must have been lying sideways on the ground. We poked it down, and who knew that this monster suddenly went crazy-"

"It didn't know you would appear there. It must have been woken up by you!" Mu Yu said, then rushed to the window and looked down.

Jin Qian was knocked down by the shock, and Huang Jiajia fell to the ground with his butt.

"We can't let the monster attack the ginkgo tree, otherwise it will be over!" Mu Yu shouted.

Huang Jiajia was startled - Jin Qian was standing under the ginkgo tree. She got up and was knocked down again. She couldn't stand up at all!

He rolled and crawled towards Jin Qian!

Mu Yu turned and ran to the classroom door: "Ma'er, give me the hammer!"

Fu Xiaoju raised his hand and Mu Yu caught the flying hammer!

The moment he ran back to the window, a loud bang like an explosion sounded, and the ground downstairs suddenly rose to a terrifying height, and a huge ginkgo tree broke out of the ground!

It looks almost exactly like a real ginkgo tree, with lush branches and leaves and a thick trunk. However, it can move. It stands upright from the soil like a giant rising from the ground, and clods of soil fall off it!

Huang Jiajia pushed Jin Qian away.

However, perhaps because of Mu Yu’s roar of “Don’t let the monsters attack the ginkgo tree”, he stopped where he was, at a loss, and didn’t move.

At this moment, instinct probably overwhelmed fear, and he subconsciously wanted to stop the monster. However, it was impossible for him to stop such a huge monster just because he wanted to!

He cried out as he was lifted up by the upright tree trunk. He flew into the air and was carried towards the real ginkgo tree.

He looked back and his eyes almost popped out!

He will be crushed between two trees!!

"Help! Help!" Huang Jiajia tried desperately to climb up the tree!

Mu Yu yelled, "Huang Jiajia, catch the hammer!"

He threw it hard!

The aim was very good, the hammer hit Huang Jiajia's chest accurately!

Huang Jiajia bent his back with a "puff" sound, his face turned pale as he covered his chest, his old wounds had not yet healed and new ones had been added!

"..." Mu Yu, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!!"

Huang Jiajia hugged the hammer and cried, "This hammer can't kill the monster! How can I hit it when it's so big? Ahhhhh!"

"——I'm not asking you to hammer the monster to death. The monster's trunk might be the 'water pipe'. Smash the trunk and see!"

Mu Yu's words woke everyone up!

Huang Jiajia was startled and stood up quickly.

...The hidden player might be hidden in the trunk of this fake tree? !

He took two deep breaths and clamped his legs around the tree trunk.

Holding the hammer with both hands, he roared and smashed it down without hesitation.

In an instant, the tree trunk cracked, the monster stopped moving, and began to struggle frantically!

Huang Jiajia tried hard not to be thrown off and punched the tree trunk like crazy!

He is really crazy, scared to death, Crack! Crack! Crack it open!

He violently smashed a hole in the tree trunk, and the monster twisted in the air like a snake, and ginkgo leaves fell down.

Huang Jiajia struggled to hold onto the hole, poked his head inside, and immediately shouted, "There's someone inside!"

Mu Yu: “Wake him up!”

Huang Jiajia shouted into the cave: "Classmate! Classmate, wake up!"

"classmate!"

It’s not enough to just shout like this!

Hong Yang gritted his teeth and said, "Just reach in and pull his hair!"

Huang Jiajia was completely crazy at this moment. He followed the command and made a move. He was panting, his eyes were red, and he reached into the hole without saying a word. The next second -

A scream came from the cave!

Mu Yu and Hong Yang: “…” This scream sounds a little familiar.

"Classmate, where are your ginkgo leaves? Give them to me!" Huang Jiajia yelled frantically, "You can't get out? I'll help you, I'll help you!"

He learned it by himself and grabbed the other person's hair and lifted him up. The horrifying scene instantly made Mu Yu and Hong Yang break out in cold sweats. The corners of their mouths twitched and they took two steps back.

Then they saw...

Jiang Shuyue was pulled out with a confused look on his face.

Huang Jiajia pulled his flowing black hair into an onion-like shape, and his facial skin was pulled crooked.

When his two arms were able to stretch out and move freely, he screamed, "Stop pulling, stop pulling, I'll give it to you. I'll give you whatever you want!"

Like a victim with a gun pointed at his head, he took out a golden ginkgo leaf from his trouser pocket in a daze and trembling. Huang Jiajia snatched it and threw it down!

In an instant, the green leaves on the branches of the real tree trembled and turned golden, as if golden light was blooming in the dark night!

A gust of wind blew, and the small golden fans fell like rain. Huang Jiajia caught them in his arms.

He was quick to grab a leaf that was about to fall off his body, raised it up and shouted excitedly: "Monster generator, the monster generator is here!!"

Mu Yu and Hong Yang took a closer look - there was indeed a bright white crescent slime stuck on the front of the leaf!

The two said in unison: "Crush it!"

At this moment, the monster finally exploded. It stopped struggling and slammed into the real tree!

Jiang Shuyue screamed "Oh shit" and quickly shrank back into the tree hole, but Huang Jiajia was unable to dodge and was caught in the middle when the two trees merged!

In the blink of an eye, his eyes popped out and his face turned purple. Only half of his face and half of his hand were exposed, and the rest of his body was trapped inside!

Mu Yu and Hong Yang's faces changed.

Huang Jiajia was not actually turned into a meat patty, but the monster was obviously trying to turn him into a meat patty.

All the branches of the fake tree were shaking, as if it was using all its strength!

Veins popped out on Huang Jiajia's forehead and he grimaced.

Mu Yu opened his mouth, wanting him to throw the monster generator to Jin Qian below, but unexpectedly, the boy suddenly went all out and leaned forward with force -

With a roar, he swallowed the monster generator into his mouth.

Mu Yu and Hong Yang: “?!!”

The two fell into a daze.

Huang Jiajia glared, as if venting anger, his cheeks twitched wildly a few times, and then there was a gulp.

………and swallowed it.
