Chapter 230 Strange

It was late at night and the moonlight filtered through the half-drawn curtains into the room, covering everything around with a layer of light blue gauze.

Lan Ximeng suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her sleep. She vaguely felt that there seemed to be a figure standing beside her bed, staring at her motionlessly.

That cold and focused gaze seemed to penetrate her dreams and fall directly on her, making her feel goosebumps all over.

She wanted to move, wanted to sit up and see who it was, but her body seemed to be restrained by some invisible force.

His hands and feet slumped limply on the bed, completely out of control, unable to even move a finger.

Her heartbeat began to accelerate and her breathing became rapid. The feeling of powerlessness and fear intertwined together, just like the legendary "sleep paralysis", making people feel desperate and helpless.

Just when she was about to be overwhelmed by this fear, a strong desire to survive suddenly woke her up.

Her eyes opened instantly and her body shook violently, trying to break free from the restraint.

However, the moment she opened her eyes, their eyes met.

......

"Ah, it's finally over! I'm going to go home and have a good rest for a day!" Wang Qin excitedly put her luggage into the space ring one by one, and then jumped happily on the bed, as if to shake off all her fatigue.

Li Lu was also packing her things slowly. She sighed and said, "I also want to go home and rest. The school asked us to do new tasks even though we have already completed the task. I really don't know what the school is thinking."

Wang Qin stopped, turned around, and said with a smile: "No matter what, it's all over. And the tasks in the past ten days are all extra points. We are sure to pass the final exam!"

Li Lu nodded: "Yes, although we completed a few more tasks, we also obtained a lot of supplies. These can definitely be exchanged for a lot of credits when we take them to school."

At this time, Li Qiuyue packed up her things, turned her head to look at Lan Ximeng who was holding her clothes in a daze, and asked softly: "Xiao Meng, what are you going to do during the winter vacation?"

Lan Ximeng was startled by the sudden voice and was stunned for a moment before she reacted: "Ah? Oh, I didn't hear it. Say it again."

Li Qiuyue smiled slightly and repeated: "I asked you what you plan to do during the winter vacation?"

Lan Ximeng sighed, gently put down the clothes in her hands, and said, "I don't have any plans. I just want to go home and have a good rest now."

Li Qiuyue came over, patted Lan Ximeng's shoulder gently, and said with concern: "You really need to have a good rest. I feel like you seem to be very tired during this period of time, and you have not been in good shape."

Lan Ximeng nodded and said helplessly: "Yes, it may be that the effects of the previous poisoning have not been completely eliminated. I have been distracted recently and was almost hurt by mutant animals several times." She rubbed her temples, with a hint of fatigue in her eyes.

Li Qiuyue sighed and comforted him, "Then take a good rest. Your health is the most important thing. When you recover, everything will be fine."

The next day, on the starship.

"See you later, everyone!"

Lan Ximeng and Cheng Bai boarded the starship together. This time the flights were arranged according to schools.

People were coming and going in the corridor of the starship, and the noise was endless, but Lan Ximeng's thoughts had already flown far away.

After a long and difficult space jump, the suffocating feeling of oppression finally passed, and Lan Ximeng dragged her tired body back to the familiar dormitory.

It is already early January, the wind is cold and the campus is quiet.

Lan Ximeng's roommates had already gone home for the New Year, and now the dormitory was empty, with only her left.

She walked slowly to the sofa in the living room, sat down tiredly, and immersed herself in the tranquility of the night without moving.

In the boundless darkness, the stars are inlaid in the deep sky like diamonds, shining with gentle and mysterious light.

Lan Ximeng slowly stood up from the sofa. Her movements were stiff and slow, as if every joint of her body was pulled by invisible threads and every step seemed to be overcoming huge resistance.

"My body?"

Her mouth seemed to be tightly sealed by an invisible force, unable to open even a little bit. The words struggled hard in the depths of his throat, but could only turn into a violent tremor.

Her eyes were empty and confused. What happened? Why can't I control my body?

She dragged her heavy steps towards the dormitory door step by step.

She tried hard to walk back, but her body still didn't obey her.

Keep walking towards the door.

"No! Call Lan Yuncheng!" The voice still could not be heard.

Mental power cannot be used either.

With every step she took, her body trembled slightly, as if even standing required a huge amount of effort.

Her fingers gripped the door handle tightly, and when the door opened, the last glimmer of hope disappeared at her fingertips.

A graceful figure slowly walked out of the darkness, and every step seemed to be silently declaring some kind of victory.

Her figure seemed particularly abrupt in the night, as if a silhouette was outlined from the shadows.

The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a twisted smile that was a mixture of madness and pride. There was a sharp excitement in her tone, and her voice echoed in the darkness, revealing a creepy weirdness.

"Haha! You finally fell into my hands!" Every word seemed to be squeezed out from the darkness, with an unsettling tremor, as if her spirit had been swallowed up by the darkness, leaving only this final madness.

"Enough!" A figure walked out of the darkness again. He immediately stepped forward to stop Bai Yiting from criticizing him. He gritted his teeth and said with a hint of coldness in his voice, "If you want the mission to fail, just keep talking!"

"You, you guys..." Lan Ximeng uttered a few words with difficulty, trying to figure out what was going on.

Cheng Bai sighed, walked forward and tapped Lan Ximeng on the forehead.

The eyes that originally had some spirit finally dimmed.

"snort!"

"Let's go!"

The darkness surged in like a tide, engulfing the three people.

In the basement of a private villa somewhere on University Star, a bright red mysterious formation quietly emerged, as if it was a strange thing growing out of the darkness.

Cheng Bai's eyes were deep and firm. He said to Bai Yiting softly, "Go."

Bai Yiting nodded, with a hint of determination in her expression. A gleaming dagger appeared out of nowhere in her hand, and she cut a deep wound on her wrist without hesitation.

Blood flowed out from the wrist like a red stream, dripping onto the red lines of the formation and was instantly greedily sucked up by those lines.

In an instant, the formation emitted a dazzling bright red light. The light was so strong that it seemed to illuminate the entire basement, making people unable to help but close their eyes.

"Let's go." Cheng Bai's voice was low and powerful.

The three of them quickly walked into the formation.

In an instant, an intense tearing sensation surrounded them, as if the whole world was spinning and time and space were distorting. When the feeling disappeared, they were already standing in an unfamiliar forest.

Bai Yiting raised her head, her eyes flashing with unconcealable joy and excitement, and her tone was full of joy: "We are finally back!" As if this forest was her long-lost home, her voice echoed in the woods, carrying a hint of warmth of reunion.
