Chapter 97 Pardon
Lu Yi was surrounded by a crowd, and chattering sounds came from all directions, making him a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Okay, okay, I know everyone is excited, but do you remember the half-hour peer review? It's almost half an hour, let's disperse first! Don't get eliminated because of something like this, it would be a waste of time."
Lu Yi's words reminded everyone, and even though they were reluctant, the crowd began to disperse reluctantly.
"Although we have done a big job, there are still a few senior students alive on the field. Everyone must be careful when scoring points and hunting monsters." Lu Yi warned.
Although the victory was secured in advance, the grade trial competition was not over yet.
Before the few remaining seniors are eliminated, they can continue to hunt monsters and earn points.
It is called brushing bureau for short.
"Okay! We got it Chief! We will definitely not be eliminated by them!"
"Yes, Chief! We still have so many of us now! It won't be long before it's completely over!"
"Don't worry, Chief~"
Lu Yi nodded slightly and didn't say any more instructions.
[“857, how many seniors are there on the field now? Can you display their positions in real time?”]
[There are 57 more people.] 857 accurately reported the number of people, [Spend two points to open the red dot map to locate them in real time!]
【“Open it.”】Lu Yi said without hesitation.
This game had gone on long enough and he just wanted it to be over as soon as possible.
If we just wait for other first-year students to eliminate the ones who slipped through the net, we don’t know how long we will have to wait.
Lu Yi decided to go on his own.
[Okay!] 857 responded and opened the mini-map.
Within Lu Yi's field of vision, a small terrain thumbnail appeared in the upper right corner.
I don’t know if it’s because he has a slight problem with directions, but 857 specially adjusted the thumbnails to be simple and easy to understand.
Lu Yi looked at the small red dot closest to him and immediately set off for it.
He drank the last bottle of blue medicine in his backpack, waited until the magic power in his body slowly recovered to its fullest state, then turned and left.
As Lu Yi expected, he should leave quietly.
However, the crowd was watching him the whole time, so how could they not see him leaving?
"chief!"
Someone called him.
"Where are you going?"
There was a subtle hint of uneasiness in the voice of the person asking the question.
He had just led them to win the grade trial match. Was he going to abandon them now?
Lu Yi paused for a moment.
He didn't turn around, but answered with a faint smile in his voice.
"Let's finish the grade trial competition."
…
In the dim night, all the subtle movements were concealed, even the rustling footsteps became silent.
He followed closely behind him, but there was no malice emanating from him.
If someone is a little more careful, they might not even be aware of his existence.
After confirming that the person behind him had been following him and had no intention of leaving, Lu Yi frowned slightly and said coldly: "Come out."
Lu Yi stared straight at a certain spot in the bushes not far away.
The bushes seemed particularly silent in the night, motionless as if Lu Yi was talking to the air.
Lu Yi's already limited patience had already been exhausted by the hider's pursuit.
His voice became even colder, even a little harsh.
"I say it again, come out."
As if sensing the seriousness in his words, the person hiding in the dark finally appeared in front of Lu Yi timidly.
A leaf flew past him at a rapid speed the moment the man appeared, and neatly cut off a few strands of hair by his ear.
The hair floated in the air, made two arcs and finally fell to the ground, successfully causing a deathly silence.
The man was so frightened by Lu Yi's words that he stood there in a daze, with some fear and panic in his eyes.
He was an apprentice magician after all, but he didn't even notice when the leaf brushed past his ear.
So horrible!
If the angle of Lu Yi's flying blade was a little bit off, the blade would fly directly over his neck and send him to see the God of Light on the spot!
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt as if he was being pressed down by an invisible mountain.
This terrifying pressure made it difficult for him to breathe, and the words he spoke came out incoherently.
"Chief, I, I have no ill intentions!!" he stammered.
After Lu Yi saw the appearance of the person who came, he immediately became confused.
This person looked familiar to him. He seemed to be one of the leading first-year students who arrived later.
That's the one who avoided his gaze and didn't dare to look him in the eyes.
But no matter what, Lu Yi could preliminarily determine that he could barely be considered one of his own, and Lu Yi was still very friendly to his own people.
Lu Yi immediately removed the pressure that was rising up subconsciously.
Almost at the moment when his pressure was lifted, the man opposite him looked visibly better.
The man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear: "Thank you for your trust, Chief..."
Lu Yi didn't respond, and asked expressionlessly, "Why have you been following me?"
When he left the crowd, many people followed him reluctantly.
But most people followed for a short distance and then left.
Only this man has been following him until now, making it difficult for Lu Yi to ignore him.
The man was stunned by Lu Yi's straightforward question, and the sweat that had just been wiped off his forehead began to appear again.
"I, I, I..."
He looked embarrassed, as if he wanted to say something to Lu Yi but couldn't.
Lu Yi was anxious to eliminate the remaining seniors, and seeing him stuttering, he simply said, "What exactly do you want to do? If you can't explain it clearly, I can send you to talk to the inspector professor slowly."
"No, no, no, no, no!" The man immediately raised his hands in surrender.
He knew that Lu Yi was serious about what he said.
He never doubted the truthfulness of the Chief's words.
If he wanted to eliminate him, it would only take a blink of an eye.
Under pressure, words that were originally difficult to say suddenly became smooth.
"Chief, I just want to say sorry to you!" the man said loudly with determination.
His voice for the first few sentences was still weak and tinny, but this sentence was so loud that Lu Yi was shocked.
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows in confusion, "Apologize?"
"Why are you apologizing to me? What did you do?"
"That's why I have to apologize because I didn't do it." The man said with a sad face.
Lu Yi had some guesses in his mind, but he remained calm and asked, "What do you mean?"
Seeing that Lu Yi did not show any negative expression, the man relaxed a little, and his speech was not as tense as before, and sounded a lot smoother.
"It's that linked magic circle." The man looked guilty.
"Someone called us cowards before, and they were right. The project leader has paved all the way for us, but we still don't dare to take the lead..."
The man said, his expression becoming even more sad. "Fence-sitters, two-faced people, cowards, we accept whatever you think of us, Chief. After all, it was our own decision to stand back and watch for self-protection. We deserve it!"
"But after this incident, we also realized that we are actually a whole! If we just watch our friends sprinting ahead and we remain indifferent, we will not be any better in the end! Just like you said, the first grade is a collective, and we can create miracles only when we get together!"
The man became more and more excited as he spoke, and his cheeks turned red.
Under Lu Yi's calm gaze, tears even welled up in his eyes uncontrollably.
He didn't know what he was talking about, nor did he know why he was feeling wronged when he was reaping all the benefits without taking any risks.
Perhaps it was because he was being watched by the Chief at this moment that the words that were ridiculed as being frail and cowardly suddenly turned into a sharp sword that pierced his heart.
He was so ashamed that he wanted to refute but he had no basis to refute.
The choice was his, so now he could only accept the result and be ashamed to be looked at by Lu Yi's calm gaze.
However, the more tolerant and peaceful Lu Yi's eyes were, the more awkward and embarrassed his every move seemed.
If he had known earlier, he should have been braver. Even if he was eliminated, he would have stood by Lu Yi and fought side by side with him.
What a great opportunity this would have been!
Fight side by side with the Chief against the evil and injustice of the seniors.
This is simply a wonderful opportunity specially created for them by the God of Light.
But because of his momentary timidity and self-esteem, he gave up such a rare opportunity!
He could only listen with great envy to those who had stood next to the chief student at the beginning and talked about what had happened to them.
Said Chief told them how many seniors he had eliminated.
Talk about how they entice senior students to come to a fixed location.
Describe how the Dharma Array was originally constructed.
It’s said that the chief looked so cool when he built the magic circle.
Talk about the urgency of the crowd when the Dharma array was on the verge of breaking.
However, all this has nothing to do with them, the latecomers. They can only get a glimpse of the scenes they missed from the mouths of others.
They are the miracle soldiers who come to the rescue, but they are also the cowards and indifferent people who are secretly condemned.
"God of Light, we have committed the sin of selfishness and indifference. We want to beg for your forgiveness. Please pardon our sins so that we can continue to follow you." The man choked with sobs.
The man's words were sincere, but Lu Yi's mood became more complicated.
[“857, I found that I still underestimated the so-called faith.”]
Perhaps there are some unbelievers like him in this world who are not devout enough, but more people grew up in a pure belief in light.
Their faith far exceeded Lu Yi's imagination.
He had anticipated the first-year students' hesitation from the beginning.
But Lu Yi did not think that this hesitation was a sin or worthy of condemnation.
In a situation where there is a gamble, everyone has the right to choose the safer option for insurance purposes.
To put it more seriously, perhaps this can be called selfishness and indifference.
But not all matters require rigorous argumentation.
Lu Yi prefers to call it rational self-protection.
But obviously the man in front of him didn't think so.
Lu Yi sighed silently.
He knew very well that he could not easily shake the other party's decades of past, and could only use a more gentle approach to guide things in the direction he wanted to see.
"I forgive you." Lu Yi said.
The man's eyes lit up, but then he was at a loss for what to do after hearing Lu Yi's words.
"But I cannot forgive your sins."
"You are always innocent in my eyes." Lu Yi said softly.
"I, we...how can we be innocent?" the man said tremblingly.
"Because you guys showed up in the end, didn't you?"
"Although you were a little late, you finally made the right choice. That's enough."
Don't be too harsh on human nature, and don't go into too much detail about the process.
This is the deepest truth that Lu Yi understood in his previous life.
Lu Yi looked at the man with a smile, "And after the grade trial competition, I believe that next time we encounter a similar situation, there will be more people who will choose to follow my command without hesitation, right?"
"Like you, right?"
"Yes, yes!" the man said excitedly, "Just one word from the Chief!"
"God of Light, I will never hesitate for a moment again!"
…
After sending away the extremely sensitive man, Lu Yi was finally able to calm down and eliminate the remaining senior students.
He is now able to shatter the Breathing Magic Stone very skillfully. Even if the senior students are prepared, they still cannot keep the Breathing Magic Stone without his advance preparation.
Lu Yi killed a senior student with one blow. He felt very happy as he watched the points on his chest continue to rise.
After the combined magic circle, a familiar-looking second-year student told him that these points could most likely be converted into rewards.
Whether it is props, equipment or skill scrolls, with Lu Yi's current points, he can easily empty the rewards prepared by the school.
Although Lu Yi actually has no shortage of these resources, he will never miss the opportunity to take advantage of the school!
If he doesn't need it, he can assign it to other first-year students!
It can be added into the collective reward as a bonus, which will make it easier to redistribute.
As Lu Yi thought about this, he became even more enthusiastic about eliminating the senior students.
One cut can give the first-graders an extra small prop, and another cut can give the first-graders an extra small equipment...
He's like that single mother who went through so much hardship to give birth to a baby.
Lu Yi was amused by the strange idea that suddenly popped up in his mind. He shook his head to get rid of the magical idea in his mind.
The red dots on the small map dimmed one after another.
But because it was too late, Lu Yi could only regretfully stop today's elimination plan.
Only by getting enough rest can you facilitate tomorrow's actions.
Lu Yi glanced at the remaining 48 red dots on the thumbnail, thinking that he would eliminate them all in one go tomorrow.
…
The next day.
When Lu Yi woke up, the number of red dots on the map had increased to 40.
This means that eight more seniors were eliminated while he slept.
It goes without saying who eliminated them.
How come these first-year students suddenly seemed to have their Ren and Du meridians opened up, Lu Yi muttered.
Since they are working so hard, he should be more serious.
The place where Lu Yi stayed was near a lake, and he simply grilled two lake fish for breakfast.
His cooking skills are pretty good, not as good as Flo's but still remarkable.
With the addition of the salt that Canaan gave him, Lu Yi roasted the two lake fish perfectly. They looked golden and crispy, and smelled fragrant, making people's mouths water.
Lu Yi took a deep sniff of the aroma of the grilled fish, and then took a bite with great satisfaction.
His movements were always graceful, but his speed was far from matching his grace. He finished his breakfast in no time, leaving only two bare branches with the fish head on them.
It was the first time that 857 saw him eating grilled fish in the wild, and he was surprised by the way he ate the fish without spitting out the bones.
[My dear, you eat fish without spitting out the bones? ? ]
Although 857, as a mechanical life form, has never eaten fish, it knows that humans have to spit out the bones after eating fish!
But just now, Lu Yi had chewed two such big grilled fishes without even spitting out any bones!
He even swallowed the big bone in the middle of the grilled fish without batting an eyelid!
Lu Yi said to 857's shock that it was not a big deal. ["Does anyone say that you must spit out the bones when eating fish? I think it tastes better with some bones."]
He would never admit that he couldn't spit!
Lu Yi looked righteous and refuted 857's ignorance without any guilt.
After he made 857 doubt his life, he stopped paying attention to the silent 857 and started to eliminate the remaining senior students.
Of the remaining 40 seniors, he eliminated 18 in the morning.
Even so, Lu Yi still complained about his slow speed.
After he finished his barbecue at noon, there were only 18 red dots left on the thumbnail.
Lu Yi was pleased with the efficiency of the other first-year students, and then continued to eliminate the remaining 18 survivors without stopping.
Fifteen left.
Thirteen.
Ten.
The number of surviving seniors fell below double digits, leaving only the final nine who had not been eliminated.
It is actually not easy to find nine people in this huge back mountain.
However, since Lu Yi had a positioning device on him, the only problem was no longer a problem for him.
Seeing victory was within reach, Lu Yi's speed became faster and faster.
Are the two of them traveling together?
His chief is just one person, so why can they have two people?
The knife!
——Yusan.
one person?
It just so happens that they are very fair one-on-one.
The knife!
——The rest are two.
Still alone?
There are only two people left and you dare to act alone?
The knife!
——Yu Yi.
At this time, there was only one senior student left in the grade trial competition.
When Lu Yi found the last survivor, it was dusk and the other party had caught some fish and was preparing to grill them.
Upon closer inspection, he found that this person was an acquaintance. Lu Yi often saw him in the second-year student meeting on the fourth floor.
He had also helped Lu Yi handle many trivial matters. Lu Yi remembered that his name was Maggie.
Lu Yi remembered his good points and did not eliminate him immediately.
After all, the fish has been cut in half, it would be too disloyal to eliminate it now!
Maggie was also happy to see Lu Yi. He handed him the fish he had just cut open, and then started to deal with another live fish that was still jumping around at his feet.
"What a coincidence, Junior Brother Lu Yi, do you eat fish?"
"Eat, I'm cooking grilled fish."
Lu Yi took the fish and helped him make a fire.
Margery was very skilled in handling live fish and quickly gutted another fish.
The two of them sat in front of the fire that Lu Yi had lit and grilled the fish in their hands in an unusually harmonious manner.
Such harmony seemed particularly strange in a grade trial competition.
One of them was the head of the first grade who had eliminated half of the senior students, and the other was the only senior student who had not been eliminated.
This should have been the final thrilling showdown, but at the moment the two of them were sitting leisurely on the grass grilling fish.
They were chatting and laughing while grilling the fish.
Margery was complaining to Lu Yi about Saman's quirks, and Lu Yi was laughing.
"You know nothing about Boss Saman! Is his office super unique?" asked Margery.
Lu Yi nodded, "That's right, very unique!"
He is still impressed by Saman's unique office.
"Huh!" Margery shook his head. "Is he a bookcase or a fancy background wall?"
Lu Yi nodded, "That's right."
"Let me tell you! That fancy background wall is actually double-sided! When it turns around, it becomes a large mirror. A whole wall of mirrors!!"
Lu Yi blinked, a little surprised, but surprisingly able to understand.
After all, Senior Saman does look very refined, so it is reasonable that there is a whole wall of mirrors.
Maggie still shook his head with an expression as if he was the only one who was innocent.
"No, Chief Junior, you are still too naive."
"You have no idea what those mirrors are used for!" Margery paused.
"There are often some strong and handsome tall men coming in and out of Chief Saman's office. One time when I passed by, the door was not closed tightly, and I heard groaning! That is, the groaning sound of doing that kind of thing, you know? Some nobles have a habit of having sex with men..."
Moaning? Mirrors all over the wall? ?
What does he do??!
Lu Yi's pupils trembled.
Lu Yi was shocked.
He was like a badger running around in a melon field, having his mouth filled with melons forced into it unexpectedly.
"Wait, is this allowed?!"
"Sometimes I wonder if there's some fox orc blood mixed in with Chief Saman's bloodline..." Margery's face was complicated.
He had kept this secret for far too long, and now he had finally found the right person to confide in. After he finished complaining, he felt much more relaxed.
He looked at the shock that could not be concealed in Lu Yi's eyes, and a strange sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.
Lu Yi was still digesting the shocking news revealed by Maggie, and it took him a long time to recover.
He really didn't expect that Senior Saman would be such a senior?
How can he look directly at his office and his fancy background wall in the future? !
"Is this really something I can know?!" Lu Yi couldn't help but repeat.
"It's okay." Majerry said, "I believe that the chief junior must be a very tight-lipped person! And if I don't talk to someone, I will definitely get mad! The God of Light will surely understand and forgive me!"
Lu Yi nodded reluctantly, "Okay, don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
He still understands the professional ethics of spectators.
Margery seemed to be completely unafraid of the heat and finished the sizzling grilled fish in his hand in no time.
Lu Yi silently put down his hand that was about to take salt from the backpack.
He was so absorbed in listening to the gossip that he forgot to take out the salt.
Just as I was about to take it out, I was still a step too late.
However, as he touched the bag, Margery's eyes fell on the other side of the backpack he was carrying on one shoulder.
The one that says the accumulated points value is over 100,000.
Margery's eyes widened.
Tens, hundreds, thousands, hundreds of thousands???
God of Light, how many people has this little brother of his eliminated?
Could it be that he killed all the senior students?
"Junior, do you know how many senior students there are now?" Margery asked tentatively.
"Ah, I know." Lu Yi gave him a kind smile, "You are the only one left, senior."
God of Light, this is coming for him!
Margery closed his eyes, tilted his head and fell onto the soft grass below.
…
After sending Margery out in a friendly manner, Lu Yi looked at the map in the upper right corner, which no longer had any red dots, and smiled with satisfaction.
He sat next to the deathly pale Margery, smiling as he waited for the inspector professor to take Margery away and announce the end of the trial.
The inspector professor arrived as scheduled and was about to leave with Margery.
Lu Yi looked at him expectantly.
The inspector was somewhat confused by his reaction, but he still asked patiently, "What's wrong, little student? Is there anything you want to ask?"
Lu Yi was equally confused and asked in confusion: "Isn't the trial competition over yet? The senior students should have all been eliminated!"
Upon hearing this, the inspector professor looked at the magic stone in his pocket.
Although the light was very dim, the magic stone was still shining, which meant that the grade trial competition had not yet ended.
"Looking at the brightness, there are probably only one or two senior students left," said the patrol professor.
The author has something to say:
