Outside, inside the car.
The teacher from Lingwu Academy who was leading the team was lying in the car scrolling through his phone.
I looked up casually, and suddenly, I froze on the spot.
"Holy crap!"
After a long while, the teacher slowly sat up straight, his eyes wide open.
The entire suburban ruins were completely shrouded in thick fog.
Without thinking twice, the man quickly dialed a number.
"Hello...hello!"
"Can you hear me? Hello!"
"Hey! Report to the dean immediately. Something has happened in the ruins on the outskirts of the city. There are still thirty or forty students inside."
"Sizzle... sizzle..."
The cell phone signal seemed to be interfered with by something, emitting a piercing electromagnetic noise.
"Depend on!"
"What kind of terrible signal is this?!"
The man tossed his phone aside, not having time to think, and quickly started the car, flooring the gas pedal as he sped off in all directions.
The ruins on the outskirts of the city have a magic array set up by the Lingwu Academy. Even if something unexpected happens, there shouldn't be no movement at all.
And when he saw the flag that had been pulled out and thrown into the grass nearby.
"Who the hell pulled down my flag?!"
At that moment, his expression changed drastically.
If this flag is not pulled down, then the trial area will be an independent area separated from the Lingwu Academy, and it won't be too dangerous.
but……
It's broken now!
"Hello...hello hello!..."
Answer the phone!
"No signal... Why is there no signal in this godforsaken place..."
"Hello! This is Teacher Sun from Lingwu Academy. A huge incident has occurred in the ruins on the outskirts of the city. Please send reinforcements immediately!"
After leaving the message, the teacher quickly started reversing the car.
but……
In the darkness of night, these suburban ruins seemed to stretch on and on.
...
Xu An and Master Li both turned to look at Cao Meng.
Cao Meng paused for a moment, then said with utmost seriousness and earnestness:
"My grandfather told me this when I was a child: if you encounter a ghost wall..."
"Take off your underwear and put it on your head, then you can walk out."
Xu An, "..."
He shouldn't have had any hope for this guy.
However, Master Li nodded very seriously.
"Okay, you go first, we'll just follow you."
As he spoke, he even took out his phone, ready to record Cao Meng's glorious moment.
"Let's discuss it, option one..."
"Stay here and wait for rescue."
"Option two: Go out and find an exit."
Xu An looked at the two of them carefully.
After a brief moment of contemplation.
"Is that even a question? Of course you should go out and find the exit yourself!"
"We can't back down just because the school has increased the difficulty."
"Staying here and waiting for rescue would only make us a laughingstock for that bastard Chen Yan."
Cao Meng said firmly.
Seeing that Master Li also nodded, Xu An picked up a rope from the side.
The three men, holding a rope, were followed by three ghostly figures as they left the villa.
"Don't be afraid, the school just sent them to scare us."
"Actually, there won't be much harm."
"Don't shake, everyone stop shaking."
Cao Meng kept talking incessantly.
Actually, he was the only one trembling.
Suddenly, a shrill scream rang out from within the thick fog.
"Over here!"
Xu An quickly pointed to the left.
The three men quickly closed in.
It was the ruins of a collapsed high-rise building.
You can vaguely see a person standing on the ruins.
"who!"
"Who is there?"
"say!"
Cao Meng shouted, and at the same time, two daggers flew out quickly, swirling around his body.
"Chen Yan! Is that you, you bastard? I see it's you!"
"Trying to scare me with ghosts and spirits?"
Cao Meng cursed loudly, but he was also extremely nervous.
"Stop shouting, something's wrong!"
Xu An whispered.
He smelled a bloody odor in the air.
Because of the heavy fog, the smell of blood was very faint, but...
It was not unfamiliar to him.
The three slowly approached.
Tick-tock...
Something seemed to drip down and land on Cao Meng's face.
Cao Meng wiped his face, and the moment he saw what it was, his eyes widened like copper bells.
"Blood...it's blood..."
Xu An took a deep breath and slowly raised his head.
Atop the towering ruins, a few steel bars stand upright.
A man was hanging conspicuously from the upright steel bar...
"Jing... Jing Zhuang..."
Cao Meng exclaimed in shock.
This guy named Jing Zhuang is as dead as can be.
His body was arranged in a kneeling position, facing one direction, as if he were devoutly worshipping something.
Those steel bars piercing through the body were like sharp bone spurs growing from the spine.
"Dead, looks like some kind of sacrifice!"
Master Li calmly stepped onto the ruins, checked his breathing, and slowly spoke.
Xu An couldn't help but take a serious look at Master Li.
He was a night watchman who had killed people, and he had worked in heavily polluted ruins, so his mental fortitude was naturally strong.
but……
Master Li remained remarkably calm even when witnessing such a horrific scene.
Cao Meng's reaction was much more normal; he was lying to the side vomiting, his face turning green.
"Something's not right. It's possible that the academy is intentionally making the difficulty higher."
"But rather..."
"The suburban ruins are out of control!"
Xu An took a deep breath, his expression becoming serious.
If they had known this would happen, they would have been better off staying inside the villa.
