Chapter 228

The word "medicine" has appeared in her life quite frequently recently.

And just recently, the captain of Duma Academy, Shen Yijing, had a brief discussion with her about the "potion".

Captain Shen also gave a piece of advice: "Don't choose potions."

At first, Jiang Yunu had only a vague impression of the "Supernatural Power Enhancement Potion" in the Trial Tower's treasury. When she listened to the introduction of the artificial intelligence, she felt that the potion seemed very familiar. However, then and now, Jiang Yunu was still more concerned about Zhou Jinxue's family, and more concerned about whether she could quickly obtain the A-level crystal core and then successfully send it to the seventh district.

Therefore, Jiang Yunu did not take this medicine, an item that was not within his needs at all, too seriously.

But after being reminded of this over and over again, many related fragments of information suddenly became connected in my mind.

A few months before summer vacation, she was dragged by Pei Ya to explore Houde City at night. At the Retro Green Plant Restaurant in the commercial district, she ran into Supervisor Waite, who was on some kind of patrol mission. He warned her: "If you receive any unidentified push messages from students in the near future, simply reject them and submit a report with one click."

During the "Challenge Cup" intramural competition, Lynette Nagu experienced a strange physical transformation on the battle stage, taking on the characteristics of an elemental beast. After a series of diagnosis and evaluation, the cause of the transformation was traced back to her previous contact with a certain "special substance";

Going back even further, on the day Jiang Yunu arrived at the entry inspection station for the second district, she had witnessed an accident at the gate and indirectly participated in the arrest of a suspicious individual who had breached the gate. Later, through a minor "blackmail" of Principal Bi, she learned from him that the individuals who had breached the gate were engaged in the inter-district smuggling of some prohibited substance.

The sudden warning, the alienation I witnessed firsthand, the smuggling I accidentally got involved in...

Furthermore, Xie Shi had mentioned in his previous "information" phone call that Zhou Jinxue's family would be resented because they politely declined to allow a batch of "goods" shipped from the edge of District Eight to enter District Seven, and refused to help them move this "goods" onto Mingtu Avenue...

Many seemingly unrelated events in the past are connected together, like scattered puzzle pieces, and finally people realize that they may all point to the same thing -

But what was that thing? What was the "goods"? What was the "special substance" that Lynette Nagu had come into contact with?

What is the "potion" placed in the treasure house on the top floor of the Trial Tower of the Advanced League, which allows players to freely choose to pass the level?

If the potion that has been mentioned repeatedly is also related to the previous events, then why and on what basis would it appear in the top treasury of the League Trial Tower?

This is a joint competition among the top three supernatural schools.

Here gathers a group of young psychics with the best family background and the best qualifications in the three upper districts. They are the new blood of the future Psychic Alliance and the backbone of the three major alliances in a few years!

Jiang Yunu had many questions and couldn't figure them out for a while.

There is not much time for her to think it through right now.

It had not actually been five minutes since Vanessa from Duma whispered the question to her and Jiang Yunu started a brainstorming session.

During the five-minute brainstorming session, Jiang Yunu only replied with two short words.

"Potion?" she said.

The white-haired girl had a suitable look of confusion on her face, as if she didn't know what Duma's red-haired female contestant was talking about. Her eyes were frank and she didn't avoid any eye contact at all.

On the contrary, it was another student of Duma. She remembered that Shen Yijing had called the other party "Hayes" before.

Hayes felt as if he had been stung by a scorpion emerging from the sand. He shuddered, finally realizing that his teammate's topic was inappropriate, and quickly shouted, "Vanessa!"

Vanessa heard the shouting, but it was still difficult for her to completely divert her attention.

So after two more rounds, the red-haired female player from Duma stared at Jiang Yunu. She was determined to confirm again: "You really didn't—?"

This time, she was more cautious and at least avoided saying the keyword directly.

Jiang Yunu had indeed never touched any potions.

The elemental creation in her hand stopped the male Duma player who was trying to make a feint while his teammates were talking to her.

Jiang Yunu stopped Hayes steadily with one hand and looked at Vanessa: "I chose something else that is more valuable to me."

Jiang Yunu gave information that blurred part of the truth.

The white-haired girl smiled at the red-haired Duma team member, and that smile suddenly became very annoying.

"Actually, I really think I'm quite strong. This thought comes from my heart." Jiang Yunu said sincerely, "So I don't need any external amplification to make myself stronger - but what about you guys?"

Jiang Yunu seemed nonchalant, deliberately asking to irritate his opponent on the battlefield: "--Did anyone among you secretly try that thing?"

Vanessa said without hesitation: "Of course——"

"Vanessa!"

Hayes spoke up again, this time raising his voice.

The female players of Duma finally shut up.

What follows "Of course"? Of course there is, or of course there isn't?

Jiang Yunu prefers the former between the two.

Her reasoning logic was also very clear: if Vanessa had not heard about the use of the medicine from other people, or even witnessed it with her own eyes, the other party would definitely not think of asking Jiang Yunu about the "use of medicine".

By the same token, we can also conclude that Shen Yijing must also know something.

The topic of potions came to an abrupt end. Jiang Yunu had bought enough time for Di Yao's allies and Jin Qing and the others to advance into the fine sand area on the side.

An extremely powerful energy suddenly erupted in the side fine sand area!

A member of Di Yao's team was the first to detect the changes in energy frequency in the side sand area. She sensed that there might be an object with pure and powerful energy hidden deep in the side area, and that an object with such characteristics was most likely the "core object in the Desert Eye" mentioned in the competition instructions.

The students of Di Yao cooperate with each other tacitly. Without explicit communication, teammates will automatically protect the team members who have established a sensory link and begin to explore the side direction.

As a student from another school, Jiang Yunu did not join the "silent communication group" of Di Yao students. However, she was gifted with sharpness and guessed what the Di Yao students might have discovered, so she immediately asked Jin Qing and Ye Li to cooperate with Di Yao.

——Jiang Yunu guessed correctly, and Di Yao’s contestant with the perception ability also found the right one.

The explosion of high-purity energy was like a signal, instantly shifting the battle situation in the entire underground space!

"Go and provide support!" Di Yao's captain ordered.

All the Di Yao players in the field began to move towards the fine sand area on the side and established a channel that could lead directly to the source of energy.

Jiang Yunu held her elemental creation in her hand, like a human gate, letting in only Di Yao's students and her own students who came to participate in the support.

And they strictly guarded against and stopped Duma's students.

Seeing that the students from Di Yao were getting closer and closer to the key item, and the first place in this round of competition seemed to be settled, a male student from Duma gritted his teeth, with a look of resentment on his face.

"Captain." The male student suddenly left the team. He did not obey Shen Yijing's orders and attacked Jiang Yunu like a hurricane. "I'm going to deal with this roadblock player from the Golden Poor Ghost."

Shen Yijing glanced sideways, the order to stop was already on the tip of his tongue, but his voice did not come out immediately as expected.

He wanted to stop his own team members.

But he clearly saw that the monster passing by him had dark veins suddenly bursting out of his face, and it seemed that steel tissue was growing rapidly under the skin, and the steel bones were about to pierce through the flesh.
