139.

In fact, even after Lu Cai suggested going to check it out alone, he was still worried.

Although she had used this strange ability to explore the surroundings and found no trace of wild animals, she could not guarantee complete safety.

If Gu Mengshu and Lu Jue were allowed to hide somewhere else, she would definitely be worried about them.

Let them follow...

There were two black smoke beasts over at the dormitory building. If only one came, Lu Cai could barely deal with it. But if both came together and attacked her from both sides... based on her experience just now, she was afraid that she would not be able to handle it.

At that time, I also have to take care of several companions nearby, which is really tiring.

Perhaps they could find a way to lure the two beasts away first, then allow the three of them to enter the dormitory building. As for her, she could stay behind to deal with one or two. Even if she missed the chance to enter the building, with her current abilities, she could definitely escape.

What if they all took the opportunity to enter the dormitory building and ended up angering the wild beasts? They would attack in anger, and it was unknown whether the dormitory building’s defenses could withstand it.

As he was thinking, the aura associated with the black smoke beast gradually approached.

The sound of a beast's heavy breathing could be heard from the corridor ahead. Lu Cai hurriedly said, "Hide!"

After hearing her words, several people rushed into the flower bed on the side without hesitation.

The beasts that had already escaped the campus would only pounce on the more densely populated cities and would certainly not be attracted by them. But the two in the dormitory were different.

They seemed to be blocked by some force, unable to attack, and could only watch, not eat. Suddenly, another weak human aura appeared, and of course it could not withstand the temptation.

Fortunately, only one of them ran over, and the other one seemed reluctant to leave the people in the dormitory building.

This was exactly what she wanted. After solving one problem, she could go and solve the other one. Then she could enter the dormitory building openly and also go to the laboratory building to investigate.

"Little Cai!" Gu Mengshu, who was ready to hide, saw Lu Cai waiting there motionless. He became anxious and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Fortunately, Lu Jue on the side pulled her back: "I'll go help—"

Before he could stand up, Lu Xiaoliu beside him held his shoulders.

A huge monster shrouded in black smoke appeared before their eyes and pounced on the thin figure on the path.

Lu Cai was also surprised by the size of this beast. This one seemed to be more than twice as big as the others outside. No wonder they were so confident in acting alone...

As the black smoke approached, Lu Cai first observed the four claws, then determined the position of the head. After quickly determining the general outline of the monster, Lu Cai raised his hand and punched the monster's chest fiercely.

She had no idea how strong she was, so when facing the enemy, she could only give it her all.

The moment her fist swung out, the air around her shifted, and she saw a series of red threads flowing neatly, following the direction of her fist, towards the black shadow.

Then it happened in an instant, so fast that even Lu Cai couldn't see the whole process. When everything settled, she only saw a "meat ball" wrapped in red silk falling not far in front of her.

The red threads vaguely formed the outline of a four-limbed beast, but as the red threads gathered and wrapped layer by layer, the beast's body became even larger, about the size of an ordinary four-wheeled private car.

The red silk seemed to be alive, wriggling on the beast's body.

At first glance, you might think it was some animal being skinned, which is quite visually impactful.

The people hiding in the back also came out. Gu Mengshu was the most anxious: "Xiao Cai, are you okay?"

Lu Cai just stared at the beast that had died on the ground. She could feel that the giant beast was being swallowed by a force, and a string of unknown data appeared in Lu Cai's mind. She saw scenes of people wearing ancient clothes coming and going.

Unfortunately, there was a layer of mist, and all I could see was a vast expanse of white, like a mirage on the sea.

"I'll deal with the other one." Lu Cai said to the people around him, "Don't get close to it for now... and don't run too far..." If the wild beasts outside came in, she would not be able to take care of them because they were too far away.

Lu Jue looked up at her, his eyes flashing in the dim light.

It wasn't until the three of them found a place to hide and watched Lu Cai running away that Gu Mengshu felt lost: "Why do I feel like Xiao Cai seems to have become a different person..."

Gu Mengshu knew Lu Cai was independent, but no matter how independent he was, he was still just a high school student, and he would always have a bit of a temper with his parents. But during their conversation just now, it was as if they were just a task for her, no longer filled with personal emotions.

It was a kind of alienation. Without the reliance on her parents and friends, it felt as if she could only rely on herself. In this world...she was the only one left...

......

Lu Cai didn't have time to think about it. She rushed towards her goal. The closer she got to the dormitory building, the more she could feel another force.

If she were to think about it, it was a light green light, confronting the power of the black smoke beast.

It's like light green and orange are fighting each other...

Why light green and orange?

She pushed the random thoughts out of her mind.

After taking a few steps over the stairs and around the path, he heard a muffled roar. Lu Cai dodged instinctively, and the black smoke passed by him.

Perhaps it was due to her experience, but in her eyes, the once swift beast seemed to slow down. Its attacks and leaps became traceable slow motion.

This bloodthirsty beast...is not so scary anymore.

With his fists clenched, Lu Cai stood firmly on his feet, facing the beast that had turned around.

The two opposing parties took slow steps, remained silent for a few moments, and then simultaneously exerted force and rushed towards each other.

The weapons of the black smoke beast are its sharp claws and teeth, and it is good at biting and scratching, while Lu Cai is even simpler, just kicking and hitting with his hands.

Lu Cai didn't know what it felt like for Wu Song to fight the tiger on Jingyang Ridge, but at this moment she just felt that the "tiger" was slippery and she couldn't hold back.

This beast wasn't stupid or mindless; it was much more agile than the one just now. Every time Lu Cai threw a punch, it was able to dodge it, and Lu Cai also slowed down his movements to avoid the beast's attacks.

After just a few rounds, Lu Cai felt tired.

She's probably the only one who turns a fight into a game of hide-and-seek...

At this moment, a sharp sound of metal scraping against wall tiles came from above his head. Lu Cai took a quick glance and was stunned, unable to look away.

Under the cold white light of the street lamp, a slender figure holding a long-handled sickle slid down the outer wall of the women's dormitory building.

That’s Ji Fengfeng.

Lu Cai didn't know whether to wonder how a day student could get to the dormitory building, or how a normal person could climb walls and fly over rooftops.

Ever since Ji Fengfeng showed up, the beast surrounded by black smoke began to groan, as if there was a ball of fire stuck in its throat, making its voice low and faintly angry.

Lu Cai finally understood that the power protecting the dormitory building came from Ji Fengfeng.

What's going on? One by one, two by two, each with a bunch of inexplicable superpowers?

When Ji Fengfeng landed on the ground, Lu Cai heard the sound of metal touching the concrete floor. She guessed that it was the sound of Ji Fengfeng's prosthesis.

When the beast saw the people who were blocking its attack on the dormitory building, it instantly became furious, as if it had lost its mind due to the stimulation. It threw Lu Cai aside and rushed towards Ji Fengfeng.

Lu Cai's eyes were stern, and he took advantage of this gap to rush towards the beast's back.

Yes, she planned to launch a sneak attack. Considering the battle experience just now, Lu Cai felt that she would have a greater chance of winning if she attacked while its attention was diverted elsewhere.

She really didn't want to go around in circles with it anymore.

But this process probably wouldn't be smooth. Lu Cai only hoped that the beast would be injured and slowed down so that it would be easier for her to launch the next attack.

until......

Her fist hit the sharp shield again, and the black smoke in front of her fell heavily to the ground.

Lu Cai couldn't believe it, just... this?

The moment the huge monster fell to the ground, the earth trembled slightly, just like her mood at the moment.

She adjusted her mentality and retracted her clenched fists. Ji Fengfeng, who was close by, slowly put down the sickle he was holding high.

Everything is resolved before we even start? Ji Fengfeng couldn't help but look at Lu Cai a few times.

[Ji Fengfeng: Is she also what you call a 'player'?]

[2195: Based on the detected data analysis, she is a plot NPC, a passerby who is only there to complete the dungeon background setting. She is not aggressive and has no clue value. She is an NPC who only appears in the opening round.]

Ji Fengfeng looked at the beast's corpse on the ground which had begun to turn into smoke and dust, and then looked at Lu Cai who was gently wiping the blood off his hands.

No offense? One-round elimination? Well, no offense and one-round elimination probably refer to NPC opponents.

[Ji Fengfeng: Is this dungeon world really that big? By having such powerful NPCs, are they trying to let players just sit back and gain experience?]

[2195: This is indeed unreasonable.]

Ji Fengfeng: Speechless.jpg

[2195: Her data is arranged strangely. The dungeon NPC data is just the surface. Beneath this surface… I can't detect the data beneath the surface. Her level is higher than mine.]

[Ji Fengfeng: Please, didn’t you say you were the player system second only to the main system? She’s higher than you, so is she the main system?]

[2195: It’s not impossible.]

[Ji Fengfeng:......]

[Ji Fengfeng: Is it so difficult to admit that you’re not as skilled as others?]

Lu Cai, who was standing by as if nothing had happened, naturally couldn't hear the argument in Ji Fengfeng's head. She pretended to be calm and lowered her hands, thinking that she and Ji Fengfeng were the same, so she explained that it was the awakening of super powers before the disaster... After all, no one was normal.

Lu Xiaoliu and the other two who were hiding not far away saw the beast being knocked down, and they quickly ran over. Several people also ran out from the women's dormitory building.

"Lu Cai!" Yue Xiaoyan ran the fastest and rushed in front of Lu Cai. "Have you also become a superpowered person?"

They were just in the upstairs corridor and could see the situation downstairs clearly.

"I can't explain this clearly." Lu Cai replied helplessly.

"Acai!" Gu Mengshu walked closer and pulled her over to check on her. "Are you okay?"

Lu Cai smiled: "I'm fine, it was just a punch." Well, she was the one who hit someone else.

"Let's go in first--" Shi Rukui reminded them. The group of people chatting at the door were in a good mood.
