Chapter 356 Crisis



He then stopped asking and changed the subject, asking when Gong Chun would be discharged from the hospital.

"Can't you go home and rest?"

Gong Chun shook his head, looked at the spot on his right leg, and his green eyes became a little deep: "No, some things can only be cleaned here. You can go back first. When you can be discharged, I will tell you and your mother. My mother is asking the director about my condition now and will be here soon."

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk about it further, Gongjing could only nod and say nothing more.

During this time, he mentioned that Yang Yanlong had gone to the Federal Academy to find him.

"I didn't expect the Federal Army to actually send a deputy marshal to persuade me this time. It seems that the army is indeed short of manpower right now."

Gong Chun frowned instantly and looked at Gong Jing seriously, asking, "You said the Deputy Marshal personally went to see you? Who else did he meet?"

"The dean of the Federal Academy, when I left, they seemed to still be talking."

Given Yang Yanlong's position, it's absolutely impossible for him to be sent to the Federal Army just to get Gong Jing back.

Unless, there is something more important than bringing Miyako back.

It's still related to the Federal Academy...

Gong Chun suddenly guessed something, but considering there were still cameras in the ward, he didn't tell Gong Jing directly.

However, when her mother returned and was about to leave with Miyako, she used Miyako's smart bracelet to write a line of words in the area of ​​the painting.

Throughout the entire process, Miyako was completely unaware.

He only discovered the anomaly when he boarded the aircraft, intending to pilot it back to the Federal Academy, and turned on his optical brain bracelet to test the connection between the optical brain and the aircraft.

The drawing area was highlighted in the most prominent place, with a line of very clear handwritten text on it: "Do not return to the Federal Academy for the time being. Once you go back, you may not be able to get out again."

Miyamoto Jun knew Miyamoto Kyo very well; he wasn't someone who would joke around.

There must be a reason why he said that.

But after thinking about Qiao Mei still being at the academy, he hesitated for a long time before finally boarding the aircraft and heading back to the Federal Academy.

........

"What's going on? Why is the academy suddenly locked down? I was planning to go out and buy new clothes this weekend!" Shu Qingqing said speechlessly, taking out the lollipop from her mouth and looking at the group notification on her smart bracelet, feeling very frustrated.

Shang Duojin was speechless: "Yeah, I was just saying I'd take you guys to try the new dishes my family chef came up with. Looks like we'll have to wait until next week."

The group notifications for sophomores through seniors at the Federal College clearly stated that the college would be locked down starting today, and told students that the lockdown would only last for two weeks and they would be able to go home normally after class next Friday.

So nobody took it seriously.

Only Qiao Mei felt something was amiss.

There is no similar plot in the original book. From beginning to end, the Federal Academy never restricted the students' freedom of movement.

And if you're going to lock down the academy, why put up the highest level of protective shield around it?

If you didn't know better, you'd think it was an invasion by interstellar monsters.

Seeing Qiao Mei's furrowed brows, Ao Cang took her small hand in his large hand and stroked the back of her hand with his thumb: "An'an, don't worry too much. If something really happens, I'm here for you."

Qiao Mei thought so too. She still had the deity Ao Cang here, so even if something serious happened, she could probably turn the danger into safety. So she stopped thinking about it.

The feeling of unease in my heart is still very strong.

On the night the Federal College was placed under lockdown, water with a blackish tinge began to gush from the college's largest fountain.

The place where the scent first spread was the college's green area.

The plants there swelled up a lot the moment they were touched by the black mist. The leaves and roots were deformed. Although they looked many times larger than before, they were inexplicably frightening.

Almost the instant the aura appeared, Ao Cang, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and urgently contacted Qiao Mei using the bond between them.

"An'an, something's wrong. There's suddenly a strong smell of death in the Federal Academy, and it's seeping into every corner of the academy from the west!"

Qiao Mei's unease continued to linger, and she was now only in a light sleep.

So almost the instant Ao Cang contacted her, she woke up.

She sat up straight and looked out the window.

Having shared divine power with Ao Cang, she can now sense the movement of death energy simply by concentrating her mind.

After discovering that it was less than 800 meters away from her dormitory, she urgently woke up Shu Qingqing and Teng Ying and asked Ao Cang what to do now.

While the death energy entering the body may temporarily make them stronger, the damage to their bodies is irreversible.

Of course, we can't just sit here and wait to die.

"Go find the holder of the Gold-type Familiar's superpower. Only a metal shield can prevent the intrusion of death energy."

Although Qiao Mei didn't understand the reasoning, since Ao Cang had said so, she felt there must be a reason. She immediately contacted Xu Heyu, the metal-type superpowered person she could reach.

When Xu Heyu received her message, her voice didn't sound like she was still half asleep as she had imagined; instead, it gave her a very clear and alert feeling.

It was as if he hadn't slept at all.

"I've already left the dorm. Wait for me at the artificial hill garden in the college, the sooner the better!"

Sure enough, before she could even get down to business, Xu Heyu had already laid out the plan.

Qiao Mei could only let Shu Qingqing and Teng Ying go out with her, and at the same time told Ao Cang to take Shang Duojin closer to the rockery garden.

Midway through, she looked out into the not-too-dark night and indeed saw a large amount of black energy beginning to emanate.

The flow rate isn't too slow; it's estimated that in less than one or two hours, the entire Federal Academy will be covered by this deathly aura.

Shu Qingqing and Teng Ying didn't understand the situation, so when they arrived at the place, they asked Qiao Mei what she wanted to do.

"I'll explain it to you in detail when Cangcang gets here. For now, try to stay back and avoid getting any black gas on you."

Qiao Mei looked at the black gas that blocked out most of the night sky and was about to contact Ao Cang to ask where he was.

Then a familiar male voice rang out: "Do you know what that is?"

The young man seemed to have arrived in a hurry; his green hair was unbound and just hung loose.

He released the superpower of the Gold-type Familiar from his fingertips, creating a golden metal ring for Qiao Mei and the others, and then looked at them with pursed lips.

Qiao Mei forgot that Gong Jing was also a Gold-type Familiar esper. When she saw him coming over, she asked him in confusion what was going on.

"Professor Gong should know what those black gases are, right? Why is the academy doing this?"

She and Ao Cang had overheard Yang Yanlong's conversation with the dean of the Federal Academy, and could roughly guess the reason, but they couldn't be sure.

If it were the capital, perhaps they would know.
