Chapter 270 Bandits

"This is very wrong. Why hasn't there been any help in such a long time?" Alice whispered to Lan Ximeng with a hint of anxiety in her tone. "It will take a while for my uncle's army to arrive, but it's impossible for the local defense team to not come to rescue for such a long time!"

Just as he finished speaking, a loud earth-shaking noise suddenly came from the distance, and then a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky, with flames shooting into the sky and thick smoke billowing. This scene was exactly the same as the previous explosion, as if the whole world was shrouded in these continuous disasters.

Lan Ximeng and everyone else looked towards the mushroom cloud in the distance, their hearts filled with shock and anxiety. They realized that the attack was not limited to the square where they were, but broke out in multiple places, plunging the entire area into chaos and crisis.

What is going on?

Riot or orc attack?

Dozens of elite teams not far away suddenly began to act separately. A small team of 10 people were holding weapons and striding towards Lan Ximeng.

When the other students saw this scene, they immediately tensed their bodies, gripped their weapons tightly with both hands, stared at the approaching enemy, and were ready to attack at any time.

One step, two steps... the distance was getting closer and closer, and the tense atmosphere almost froze the air. Lan Ximeng and Alice looked at each other, and both saw determination in each other's eyes.

Suddenly, a small man among the gangsters quickly raised his weapon and pointed it at the injured patrolman on the ground, with a cruel smile on his face. The weapon in his hand began to charge, energy flashing dangerously at the muzzle.

In the next second, a dazzling blue light cut through the air like lightning and accurately hit the weapon in the gangster's hand. With a loud "clang", the weapon was instantly knocked away and fell to the ground a few meters away.

Lan Ximeng's figure disappeared instantly. She acted quickly with astonishing speed, and the energy gun in her hand accurately hit the bandit's head again. Blood splattered everywhere in an instant, and the gangster's body fell heavily to the ground, but he still had the last breath left.

It was at this moment that the other gangsters reacted. However, Lan Ximeng's figure had disappeared.

The next moment, Lan Ximeng suddenly appeared from the other side and hit one of the gangsters again.

Suddenly, the gangster who had been hit in the head suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Lan Ximeng quickly. Lan Ximeng didn't look back, but used her mental power to tie him up tightly. The next moment, the man was hit by multiple energy guns from Alice who was hiding nearby. He was instantly shot into a sieve and then fell down completely.

When the other students saw this scene, their fighting spirit was instantly ignited and they began to assist Lan Ximeng.

After five minutes, the last gangster was killed.

But no one was happy because there were still many such gangsters here.

"What's the matter with these people? Why are they so hard to kill?" Alice came to Lan Ximeng and watched her searching the bandits.

The other students began to gather together and looked around vigilantly.

Lan Ximeng searched the body of a bandit who was still visible, but found no trace of the computer on his wrist. There was no communication equipment on him except for clothes and weapons.

"This weapon has been modified!" A student picked up the gangster's weapon and pointed to a place and said, "There are beast patterns on this weapon!"

"What!" The other students immediately stepped forward and picked up other weapons, each of which had the same words on it.

"Could this be English?" A classmate expressed a different opinion.

"Experiment Nine?" Experiment Nine? Alice also picked one up and looked at it. The text on it was in Gothic, an ancient way of writing. Except for the orcs, the British people nowadays no longer use this font.

"This is indeed an orc." Lan Ximeng turned the bandit's body over and quickly tore off the clothes on his back, revealing the strange bone structure on his back. The shape of the bones is the trace left after the wings were forcibly cut off and then grew again. "This should be an orc who originally had wings, but he cut off his wings."

This explains why these "people" are so difficult to kill.

"How did these orcs get in!" The other students were all horrified when they saw this scene.

"No, I want to go home now!" a student suddenly shouted, his voice trembling and anxious. His face was full of panic and his eyes were full of worry for his family.

After hearing this, the other students seemed to have their inner anxiety ignited, and they all began to think about the safety of their families. They realized that this sudden crisis may have spread to every corner of the city and their families may be in danger at the moment.

"Yeah, my parents are still at home, will they be in danger?"

"My sister is still young, I have to go back and see her!"

"I don't know what's going on at home now. I have to go back!"

For a moment, the students became increasingly anxious, adding a bit of panic to the already tense atmosphere.

"Everyone, be quiet!" Lan Ximeng heard the chaotic noise and immediately shouted, "There may be other orcs lurking here. Are you shouting like this to attract them all?"

When the others heard Lan Ximeng's shout, they gradually calmed down.

"What should we do?" Someone began to sob quietly. Even though they were highly trained, no one could really calm down when faced with the thought that something might have happened to their family.

Alice thought for a moment and said, "Those who want to go home should go together and don't separate."

After a while, some of the students who had gathered decided to form a group and go home, and finally only twenty people were left.

Except for Lan Ximeng and Alice, the remaining eighteen people decided to stay and continue looking for their families to pick them up.

"Everyone, hold on to your weapons and be careful on the road." Alice handed the seized orc weapons to a girl who was about to go home and reminded her.

After everyone else had taken a detour and left, Lan Ximeng and the others gathered the surviving citizens together.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death." Lan Ximeng said, and then turned off the computer in her hand. Now she can’t contact her family, but fortunately she can still keep in touch with Wang Chunlei and others.

According to their information, ten places on Tianquan Star have been attacked by bandits, and these ten places are the squares with the largest flow of people. The army and other armed forces also encountered a wave of bandits blocking the road on the way, but they were all successfully dealt with and are currently rushing to the disaster area.

"Cough cough!" A weak cough suddenly sounded, attracting the attention of Lan Ximeng and others.

At this time, most of the survivors were hiding in corners, some were crying silently, and some were trying to contact their families through communication equipment.

"The patrolman has woken up." Alice whispered in Lan Ximeng's ear.

"Let's go and ask about the situation." Lan Ximeng and Alice walked to the awakened patrolman, squatted down and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

"Ahem, I'm fine." The patrolman shook his head and gently touched his bandaged abdomen. He was originally seriously injured, but now he has recovered 70%. He raised his head and glanced at Lan Ximeng and Alice. His voice was hoarse but full of gratitude: "Thank you for saving me. My name is Hao Ren, and I'm the patrolman in this area."

Lan Ximeng and Alice looked at each other. Lan Ximeng nodded slightly and said seriously, "Hello, Officer Hao. We want to know what is going on now."

Officer Hao clenched his hands and tried to calm himself. "Today we were patrolling normally as usual. No one expected that there would be a sudden explosion here. After the explosion, we immediately notified the higher-ups and rescued citizens nearby. Just then, I found a man with strange movements. He was sneaking around and seemed to be looking for something. I stopped him and wanted to ask him about the situation, but... he stabbed me."

"You don't know what's going on now?"

"right."
