Finally, he found a place with no cracks in the roof, away from the corner, and pulled Lily to sit by the window.
The moment Chen Xi sat down, Yu Tong felt more than a dozen gazes looking at them at the same time.
He turned around and looked back one by one, and finally his eyes met with those of the believers of the Marsh God.
The black-haired boy twirled the pen casually and looked at Chen Xi with cold eyes.
It seemed that the boy had come to his senses and realized that Chen Xi had exploited a loophole in the text this morning and taken advantage of it right in front of him.
The system's exclamation interrupted Yu Tong's concentration. He withdrew his gaze and stopped arguing with the black-haired boy.
30 believers? How come there are so many? I thought there were a dozen or so. Wait, there are so many believers in the orphanage, why haven't we heard about this before? Even the little mushrooms and little coal balls in the dormitory don't seem to know anything about them.
"The circle of believers is very exclusive. They are not part of the same circle. The children of gods don't bother to pay attention to ordinary children."
"And if my guess is correct, children with divine powers should usually move around in a specific area and not be in the same classroom with ordinary children."
Why do we need a separate classroom?
"Believers are bound to gods. Since the orphanage aims to cultivate powerful gods, the education of believers must not be neglected. Those children will most likely take some serious courses."
[Isn't Lily also a believer? I don't usually see her taking classes elsewhere.]
'Because she is young and dull.'
system:……
[Politeness, Lily.]
Yu Tong had no intention of discriminating against Lily.
He just felt that compared to taking theoretical classes, the chubby Lily and her little bear warrior were more suitable to gain experience in actual combat.
There are surveillance cameras everywhere, nuns check the dormitories every day, and believers of the Marsh God are responsible for interrogating each god about their situation.
The orphanage knows very well how to educate these children.
The biggest problem at the moment is that Chen Xi has been targeted by the believers of the Marsh God.
What happened this morning made the boy alert. A training center can only produce one god, and he will not give Chenxi a chance to grow up.
During the period of food shortage, he will definitely find an opportunity to kill Chen Xi.
So Yu Tong decided to kill him first.
————
At 10 o'clock sharp, the priest walked into the classroom carrying a heavy hardcover book.
Two nuns followed him, guarding the front and back doors of the classroom.
Yu Tong discovered that the nun's body hair had grown longer, and her exposed arms were covered with long and dense black hair.
The nun at the back even had a thick beard on her face.
The system complained, saying it had never seen a woman two meters tall, with bulging eyes and covered in black hair. No, it was a human.
Yu Tong hadn't seen it either.
Their hair is so dense and thick that they don't look like normal humans. Instead, they look like some kind of monster.
The middle-aged priest knocked on the blackboard, motioning everyone to look over.
"Today we are studying the gods. Currently, there are 357 gods known to exist within the empire. There are 31 gods we need to learn about."
Yu Tong and Chen Xi were both stunned.
Why 31?
The gods that these children need to understand must be those they can come into contact with before they leave the orphanage.
After entering the classroom, Yu Tong counted carefully and found that there were currently 30 believers in the orphanage, corresponding to 30 gods.
There are probably no survivors in the warehouse, so they don't need to be counted in the statistics.
Where did the extra one come from?
Are the water drop warriors who lost their believers also among them?
Without giving Yu Tong time to think, the priest began to explain the first god.
Yu Tong asked the system to record the audio and prepared to listen to it slowly in his dorm room. He turned around and looked at the glass window not far away.
Through the window you can see the sky covered with dark clouds and trees shaking violently in the strong wind.
The theology classroom is on the east side of the orphanage, and the warehouse is on the northernmost side of the orphanage.
Yu Tong couldn't see the situation in the warehouse, and he was wondering why the rain hadn't started yet.
Priests and nuns avoid monsters, and their presence in theology class indicates that the classroom is safe.
Children who go to the warehouse for class cannot wait for the priest and soon realize that they have gone to the wrong classroom.
It is now 10:03, and most of the children have already left the warehouse and started rushing to the theology classroom.
After all, this is the only safe place in the next two hours.
Looking at the branches that were nearly broken by the wind, listening to the whistling wind outside the window, Yu Tong frowned tightly. An ominous premonition swirled in his heart, and was transmitted to Chen Xi through the telepathic prop.
Chen Xi, who was taking notes, raised his head.
Seeing the branches flying in the wind, his heart tightened and he suddenly picked up the umbrella hanging on the table.
Yu Tong turned and growled at Lily in the back row, "Get down and hold the umbrella, quick!"
Before he could finish his words, a branch as thick as his wrist with an extremely sharp tip crashed straight into the window of the theology classroom.
With a loud bang, the branch shattered the glass in the middle, spun around a few times in the house, and hit a child.
At the same time, the long-brewing heavy rain poured down, and the strong wind swept the rain into the classroom through the broken windows.
Chen Xi squatted in the aisle, holding up the umbrella with both hands to cover his thin body tightly.
He first touched the top of his head to make sure the chick was okay, then turned to look at Lily.
The little girl was a step slow to react. She was frightened by the loud noise and subconsciously hugged her head.
The teddy bear stood on the table and held up an umbrella, pointing it towards the window to block the howling wind.
A few seconds later, the sound of shattering glass was heard again.
The windows on three sides of the classroom were all smashed by tree branches, and the children's screams were drowned out by the howling wind.
Chen Xi called Lily and Xiong, and holding an umbrella, he moved slowly along the aisle towards the classroom wall.
Yu Tong tilted his head and looked outside the umbrella.
Several children rolled around in their seats as raindrops fell on them, burning holes in them.
