Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Chapter 51 (Two in One)...
The cave had become quiet at some point, and everyone's eyes were on Luo Shizhen.
The only sound that could still be heard was the pollution value reported by Wen Hu.
“65%.”
“61%.”
“54%!”
Luo Shizhen could hardly hear these sounds.
He has always been like this. Once he starts doing something, he will devote himself to it completely and focus so much that he will not pay attention to what is happening outside.
The white "python" was not big, just a small one, wrapping around Lu Qiujin's heart and swallowing the continuous black fog.
Although it is very small, it has a greedy feeling, as if it wants to swallow all the black fog in one breath.
Delicious, delicious, delicious...
Although bitter melon is bitter, it is filling and filling. Luo Shi can really feel that his "appetite" is much bigger than when he first "ate" the pollution on Zhang Cai's body.
As the white python consumed more and more pollution, its appearance became more and more like a real snake. Its eyes, fangs, and tongue were all lifelike.
Just as it moved around, it was more greedy and more powerful than the previous black python.
The black fog that was targeted by it had almost no power to fight back. Even if it wanted to escape, it could not escape being swallowed by the white python.
It can be said that it arrogatedly occupied the heart, constantly intimidating and devouring the food inside.
With the help of the white python, the purification process went particularly smoothly.
Luo Shizhen didn't pay any attention at all. He was still trying hard to digest the bitter melon.
He vaguely remembered that when he was young, he was always hungry. At that time, he thought that it would be great if he could find a good job when he grew up, make a lot of money, buy more delicious food, and eat as much as he wanted.
I didn't expect that when I really wanted to eat as much as I wanted, I would also have troubles.
There was so much that he felt like he didn't even chew it in the end, but just "swallowed" it directly.
The wandering white python had a bulging belly, but its mouth was still trying to expand to swallow the white mist.
The "heart" growing in Lu Qiujin's abdominal cavity was also rapidly shrinking, and the human heart, which was originally almost squeezed into the "corner", was beating even stronger.
The strange and bizarre look on Lu Qiujin's face gradually faded away, revealing her original handsome features.
Until finally, the pair of empty black pupils lost their black glow and turned into the appearance of human pupils.
Sanity is the last to return.
Lu Qiujin lowered her head and looked at Luo Shizhen who was opening his heart to her.
There was still some emptiness in his eyes, but he subconsciously called out the other person's name.
"Shi Zhen."
Luo Shizhen was stunned, then he raised his head and met Lu Qiujin's gaze.
To be honest, Luo Shizhen's current appearance is not that of a pure person.
His face was covered in blood, but his eyes were sparkling, and he looked like a determined killer.
In Lu Qiujin's eyes, this scene seemed like the most dreamy scene he had ever seen.
"Lu Qiujin! You're awake!"
Luo Shizhen's face was covered in blood, his eyelashes were stained with blood, his face showed a hint of fatigue, but he was still smiling softly.
Lu Qiujin could feel that she was opening her heart.
His previous memories came back to him and he quickly understood what had happened.
It's really strange.
Lu Qiujin had never felt so relaxed.
The awakened ones have strong self-healing abilities, and generally, even if they are injured, they will not leave scars.
But there has always been a deep scar on Lu Qiujin's chest, as if the awakened person's self-healing ability has bypassed it.
Therefore, his clothing is always very strict and meticulous, covering up any place that can be covered up, trying not to reveal any trace.
But now, the scar was cut open by Luo Shizhen.
It was almost rough, crude, and cut open fiercely.
New scars replaced the old ones almost overbearingly.
It was difficult for Lu Qiujin to describe his feelings at the moment. He had just experienced an extremely painful alienation process, and now he was in a state of having his chest cut open. He should have been very tired.
But he felt very relaxed, extremely relaxed.
Luo Shizhen actually didn’t feel very tired, he just felt sleepy.
But he still managed to smile and stretched out two fingers stained with Lu Qiujin's blood:
"Lu Qiujin, what time is this?"
This is a crude testing method that is not even sure if it will work.
But Lu Qiujin replied: "It's 2."
He looked at Luo Shizhen and saw that he was obviously relieved.
Lu Qiujin, who could answer 2, was his classmate, roommate, and teammate.
Therefore, the sleepiness that had been strongly suppressed surged up at this moment.
"I'm glad you're awake. I feel a little full. I want to sleep for a while."
He remembered that the book said that people would feel sleepy after eating carbohydrates, so it was reasonable to feel sleepy after a full meal.
Luo Shizhen was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes, but he was still thinking about clearing the pollution for Lu Qiujin, so he was trying to hold on.
This is actually nothing. When Luo Shi really studied hard, he also felt dizzy, but he still forced himself to continue studying.
In the end, I didn't learn anything.
But purification is different. Purification is like taking a combat lesson. No matter how tired your body is, you have to do it. As long as you do it, there will be results.
As long as he keeps purifying, the pollution on Lu Qiujin's body will be reduced again and again. He just has to force himself to stay awake for a while. Luo Shi really thinks it's worth it.
He always remembers his identity: he is a purifier, and it is his duty to help his classmates purify themselves.
Luo Shizhen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Qiujin's clear expression.
Luo Shizhen's eyelids could no longer hold up his eyes. He closed his eyes and his body swayed as if he was about to fall backwards.
Lu Qiujin's pupils constricted, and she subconsciously reached out to grab him.
But Luo Shizhen stood firmly on his own.
Having a body as good as an ox is not just talk.
Luo Shizhen squeezed his eyes and tried hard to open them again.
It is impossible to faint.
Just like the people in TV dramas, when they faint, they fall backwards and it must be painful to hit the ground.
Although Luo Shizhen was sleepy, he could hold on for even a second.
He first sat down on the ground, then lay back, and then fell asleep peacefully.
This series of actions can definitely be called unexpected, except that Sui An's mental thread quickly wrapped around the ground, forming a simple "bed".
"Shi Zhen!"
Qin Yinian and the others quickly surrounded him, cautiously wanting to reach out their hands but not daring to touch him.
Even the members of the guillotine team couldn't help but show a nervous look.
Someone stepped forward and said, "Move aside, I'll check on him."
Sui An's mental strength had been tested, so his expression was definitely the most peaceful among those present.
"Don't worry, he's just asleep, his vital signs are stable."
The teammate Guillotine who said he wanted to check Luo Shizhen just remembered that their captain had revealed before that Sui An had put his mental power on this student.
When it comes to Luo Shizhen's vital signs, Sui An is definitely the one who knows the most among everyone present.
When you take a closer look, aren't the threads of mental power that control the monitor the thing wrapped around Luo Shizhen's body as a mattress?
The team member: “…”
Sui An was higher than him in both sequence and level, but he still couldn't help but looked at him as if he was a pervert.
Sui An, who was being watched, always had sharp senses, so of course it was impossible for him not to notice it.
He has gone through mountains of swords and seas of fire, so why would he care about a mere glance and just pretend not to see it.
Hua Yi also observed Luo Shizhen's condition first, and after confirming that he was fine, he turned his attention to Lu Qiujin.
Although Lu Qiujin's chest was opened, for the awakened ones, these were just external injuries. Even if they did not choose treatment, their powerful self-healing ability would allow them to recover quickly.
Compared to being polluted, this is nothing.
Wen Hu wanted to see Luo Shizhen and Lu Qiujin at the same time, and he wished he could turn himself into a two-headed tiger.
He was still checking the alienation value in his hand, and when he looked at it again, a smile appeared on his face:
"27%."
This is a relatively safe value. At least Lu Qiujin will not suddenly become alienated, and Luo Shizhen, who has already been able to purify him, can also purify him slowly and steadily in the future.
After making sure that his love rival was really fine, Wen Hu didn't want to continue looking at him, and concentrated on staying close to Luo Shizhen.
Lu Qiujin's face was still a little pale, but she forced herself to go see Luo Shizhen.
No one stopped him, even Wen Hu, who had spoken harshly to him before, made way for him.
Cheng Yunshao reminded him: "Shi Zhen is fine, maybe the purification is too tiring for you, you should heal your wound first and don't let him waste his efforts."
Lu Qiujin nodded silently.
He almost completely lost his human sanity in the end, but the strange Lu Qiujin saw everything clearly.
Naturally, it can be seen that this temporary team, which was formed because of Luo Shizhen despite the disharmony in appearance and heart, was just formed with the intention of the other teammates to protect him.
On the chest cavity, a thin vine intertwined, like sewing needle and thread, closing the open heart and lungs again.
Lu Qiujin stretched out his hand, which was still trembling a little. It was unclear whether it was due to the alienation process or the ups and downs of his emotions.
The white fingertips with many tiny wounds wanted to touch Luo Shizhen's face, but then withdrew timidly.
It was obvious that the reason I approached him in the beginning was to purify myself from the pollution.
But after finally getting what she wanted, Lu Qiujin became a little timid.
He thought of the time when he lost all his sanity and Luo Shizhen stood in front of him.
He thought of Luo Shizhen, who was always clean and forced himself to take a shower and wash his hair when his alienation value was almost reaching 100%, no matter how hard the training was. He ignored the dirt and cut open his chest with his own hands.
He thought of Luo Shizhen, who was standing in front of him after he woke up, looking disheveled but smiling at him with ease and happiness.
Lu Qiujin told herself over and over again that it was worth taking advantage of other people's sincerity in order to achieve her own interests.
But at this moment, when he really achieved his goal, he realized that his despicable self had tainted the pure Luo Shizhen.
And the most despicable thing was that he also realized that he was... happy about it.
Hua Yi looked down at the scene and suddenly said:
"I know you two lovers have just experienced alienation and purification, and your emotions are still not at peace, but at this time, shouldn't you call for medical attention first?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the cave changed, and the expressions of those young awakeners who Hua Yi judged to be barely usable became strange.
There was also a more straightforward young awakener of the atavistic type, with anger in his eyes that was about to spark.
Hua Yi raised an eyebrow, surprised:
"Are the Purifier and this Wood Element not a pair?"
Sui An didn't laugh, and said slowly: "Just a classmate."
He glanced at Hua Yi and said, "Even if you need to make up for your cultural studies, and you don't know if a newly awakened Purifier can purify people other than their lovers, you should also remember that my student also told you that he has purified other students."
Hua Yi: "In that case, I thought young people nowadays are more open-minded."
He glanced at Sui An and said, "After all, this little classmate can even accept other people's mental power being used on himself."
Sui An laughed. He still looked casual, as if nothing in the world could affect his thoughts.
"I know you envy me for having a good student."
"You've never been a teacher, so you won't understand."
Hua Yi was so angry at his look of "you have never seen the world" that she gritted her teeth.
But he had to admit that he really felt that Sui An was not worthy.
Although the time he had with Luo Shizhen was not long, and they did not get along well, they could even be described as being at odds with each other.
But Hua Yi also admitted that Luo Shi was a really good kid.
He is also a well-behaved student.
He had a familiar stubbornness about him, and this stubbornness reminded Hua Yi of his younger self.
But the difference is that his stubbornness only brought him a painful price.
Luo Shi was really stubborn, but he tried hard to find a way to survive, and in the end, he really found it.
Without paying any more attention to Hua Yi, Sui An went straight over. He used his mental power to disperse the people surrounding Luo Shizhen, leaned over, and picked him up.
Sui An was very tall, so it was very easy for him to pick up the person. His external mental power turned into silk threads, which wrapped around Luo Shizhen's body, adjusting a more comfortable sleeping position for him.
Luo Shizhen felt comfortable in his sleep. He moved slightly and buried his face in Sui An's arms, blocking out other light.
He was asleep, not unconscious. In his daze, he could realize from the breath and the silk threads wrapped around him that the person holding him was Sui An.
Luo Shizhen suddenly felt more secure.
In the past few training sessions, every time he was extremely tired and could not walk, Teacher Sui used his ability to bring Luo Shizhen back to the outside of the training ground for relaxation.
The journey took about ten minutes. Every time, the extremely exhausted Luo Shizhen could sleep comfortably for ten minutes under the protection of Teacher Sui.
Having experienced this many times, Luo Shizhen could even be said to be adept at letting the silk thread adjust his posture. His whole body seemed much softer because it was relaxed.
Anyone with eyes could see that Luo Shizhen slept more soundly and better in Sui An's arms.
Hua Yi looked at this scene and was completely puzzled.
Could it be that this student's temper is so good that he can even tolerate someone like Sui An?
Sui An held Luo Shizhen in his arms and also reminded the other students:
"Help Lu Qiujin."
He did not specify who to help, which was enough to show that Sui An's time as a teacher in the school was not in vain.
At least he knew very well that if he used one-on-one commands to deal with a group of young awakeners, it would instead cause rebellion.
Sure enough, Sui An did not mention any names, but Cheng Yunshao, Wen Hu and Qin Yinian all silently reached out to support him.
Lu Qiujin did not refuse either.
As they walked, their eyes were all on Luo Shizhen, and they didn't look at each other.
But the atmosphere between them already has a bit of the feeling of a team member.
The elders all knew about this, but they just didn't expose it.
After all, everyone has been through this stage. The young awakeners are arrogant, full of youthful vigor, and cannot control their desire to occupy territory. In addition, they have the bonus of being a middle school student that is unique to this age.
But except for a few people, no one really wants to be alone all their life.
After awakening, their personalities changed and they developed a sense of territory, but they were still human beings after all, and as human beings, they needed some friendship to support them.
Sui An was walking when he paused, turned around, and said to Hua Yi naturally:
"Captain Hua, my students need to return to school for inspection. The drill is over. Since you, the Guillotines, are here, I'll leave this mission to you."
Hua Yi paused, unable to believe that Sui An was so shameless:
"You're leaving the mess of your school's drill to outsiders like us?"
Sui An: "We are all guardians, there is no distinction between you and me."
"When you came down, I had already handed over the mission through Yongri. Thank you for your hard work."
As he said that, he lifted up his long legs and carried Luo Shizhen away.
The guillotine team fell behind.
The Mechanical Sequence's deputy clicked on the holographic screen: "Captain, the Gu worm mission has indeed been transferred to us."
A crew member with a buzz cut looked at the back of the person in front of him with some reluctance:
"Captain, do we still need to follow him out?"
The other team members were also a little eager.
Although compared to these young students, they can be considered elders.
But in fact, most of them are under 30 years old. It is just because of their mission as guardians that they have seen too many life and death at this age.
Most of these team members were assigned to or entered the Guillotine through assessment, and before coming to the Guillotine, they also had other teammates, classmates, and friends.
I have also witnessed my teammates, classmates, or friends die from alienation.
Not only the Guillotine Squad, strictly speaking, all the awakened ones are trapped here.
Before this, the awakened people all believed that once the alienation process exceeded 80%, it would become irreversible.
But now, there is a young second-level Purifier student who has managed to pull back the awakener who has reached the 94% alienation value and successfully purified him.
Whether out of concern for their loved ones or because they themselves have this problem, the members of the Guillotine Squad all have a strong interest in Luo Shizhen.
The teammate who asked the question was called Luo Fang. His own pollution status was relatively good. If nothing unexpected happened, he could at least avoid falling into alienation for ten years.
But his adoptive father remained on the verge of alienation for more than three months.
Repeated alienation and repeated self-suppression will only make the awakened person more and more painful. In the end, the value suppressed in the past will instantly rise to more than 80%, making the person beyond salvation.
In the past, when faced with this situation, some awakened people would choose euthanasia, while others would try to lower the pollution level again.
But in the past, out of a hundred awakened people who were repeatedly on the verge of alienation, perhaps only one could successfully suppress it. And even if it was suppressed, without alienation, these pollutions accumulated in the body, becoming extremely violent, and it was normal for people to suffer for a lifetime.
Moreover, because of the violence of the polluted Qi body, unless the energy person is very close to the awakened person, other energy people will feel attacked as soon as they approach and will be unable to purify and absorb it.
"Lu Qiujin's Qi was also very violent just now, but for some reason, after approaching that student, it became docile."
It was hard for Luo Fang not to be excited. This was how people were. Even when they died, they might still believe that life and death were determined by fate and they had nothing to fear.
But once you have to watch your loved ones die, it’s a completely different feeling.
Hua Yi understood his feelings. He actually didn't recommend Luo Fang to be so excited at the moment. What if his adoptive father still couldn't be purified successfully? The happier Luo Fang was now, the more sad he would be later.
But he nodded anyway.
"Go if you want to."
"Thank you, Captain!"
A happy smile appeared on Luo Fang's tough and handsome face, and he ran out with big strides.
Hua Yi turned around and saw that the other team members were also looking at him eagerly.
Hua Yi: “…”
"Is there anyone in your family who needs purification?"
The Mechanical Sequence's deputy laughed and said:
"Captain, this is a purifier that can purify even when the pollution value reaches 94%. Who wouldn't want to see it?"
Hua Yi: "...Alright, go ahead and take the one with the Gu insect contract away. I'll take care of the rest."
The team members immediately became happy, escorted the young man, and hurriedly chased Luo Shizhen and the others in groups of three or four.
Hua Yi was the only one left in the cave.
Hua Yi: “…”
The team members all went to watch Luo Shizhen.
He could only take out the detector himself and search the cave inch by inch.
Every awakened student is Yong Zhou's treasure. For actual combat exercises like this, a tight net has been laid out outside to ensure that even if something goes wrong, the target of the mission will not escape.
Sui An has always been a gloomy person. It is estimated that before he came down, he was surrounded by layers of people and prepared.
Therefore, this third-level poisonous insect will only stay in the cave.
I just don’t know why, the third-level poisonous insect that was supposed to come out to fight the students has never shown up.
Hua Yi searched inch by inch according to the detector. After about half an hour, he stopped in front of a wall.
On the ground, there was a worm skin, mixed in with the corpses of various large and small poisonous insects, and it was not conspicuous at all.
Hua Yi put on white gloves, picked up the insect skin with tweezers, and the detection instrument in his hand beeped.
"Dead?"
He looked at the empty inside of the insect skin, his blue eyes narrowed slightly.
Although only a piece of skin was left, Hua Yi was experienced and could tell the insect's state when it was alive at a glance.
There was no sign of struggle, and even no use of ability. Even if it was attacked unexpectedly, the strange properties of the insect would cause it to release pollution before dying.
But it did nothing.
This state is more in line with the blood suppression that a small monster faces when facing a big monster.
Because they were suppressed, they didn't even dare to resist.
The monsters are also suppressed by their levels and bloodlines. Most of the time, the small monsters obey the orders of the big monsters. It is not uncommon for the small monsters to be eaten as food by the big monsters.
Hua Yi glanced around the cave.
Could it be an evil god?
No, the evil god is a monster raised by humans. It only loves to eat humans and has no appetite for its own kind.
Or is there another monster hidden in this amusement park?
But he didn't notice it, not at all.
That is to say, it is possible that this high-level monster has the ability to move in space, moved into the cave, ate the poisonous insect, and then moved away.
Some weird things do have this ability.
Regarding this, you should ask the person who signed the contract with it.
Hua Yi secretly cursed Sui An for being pretentious and insecure, and for allowing other high-level weirdos to sneak into the students' training ground.
Sui An’s mental strength is strong, but what if?
What if that high-level monster suddenly attacks, and Sui An is in the process of breaking a leg or an arm, or even a neck, and his attention is diverted, so he doesn't check the students' condition all the time?
Hua Yi has never liked going through the process of completing a task. In the past, all reports after the completion of a task were completed by his deputy.
But today, Hua Yi was alone in the empty cave, writing a 500-word mission completion report in one breath.
Generally speaking, a task completion report only needs 100 words. If the content is a little more complicated, it can also be 150 words.
Of the 500 words Hua Yi wrote, 450 of them were denouncing Sui An for being irresponsible and failing to protect students, which almost put the students in danger.
He suggested that Yong Zhou revoke Sui An's teaching qualifications.
Then let Hua Yi replace Sui An as the teacher.
Isn't he so proud of his teacher status? Once he's replaced by him, let's see how Sui An can still put on that pretentious front.
Eternal Day
Hua Yi's report was quickly reviewed as soon as it was transmitted.
After reviewing the report, the auditors found a large amount of personal revenge in a small number of task completion reports.
It was so obvious, he couldn't even pretend he didn't see it.
The examiner can only submit it to his superiors and let them judge whether Captain Hua Yi only slightly exaggerated or exaggerated a lot.
The superior received the report but failed to deal with it immediately. Instead, he stood up suddenly after receiving a phone call.
"What?! An awakened person whose alienation value reached 94% was purified? And the purified person was a student who just awakened this year?!"
"Okay, okay, I'll report it right away!"
