Chapter 172 Mizuki Private High School (Forty-four)
Nan Huan reached out and poked the chubby body of the Gu worm, then looked at the box in his left hand that obviously couldn't hold its size, "Did you eat too much? What should I do now that I can't go back?"
The poisonous insect had grown to the size of an adult's palm, and its movements had become much slower, but its love for Nan Huan had not changed. It didn't care what she said, and just rubbed her wrist with its huge body.
The round eyes looked quite silly, which made Nan Huan a little worried. "I haven't thought about you for such a long time. Will there be any problems with this hungry and full meal?"
"Probably not." The others were resting, only Twelve and the eldest lady were looking at the insects together. After hearing her question, he said affirmatively, "This kind of insect is raised with poison, and it is different from ordinary insects. Even though it ate so much just now, it probably didn't like it very much. With its digestive ability, maybe after we get out of the mission, it will return to its original state."
"But you know what, after looking at it for a long time, it's still a little cute." Twelve originally thought that insects were disgusting, but now looking at the poisonous insect in front of him, he has changed his mind a little.
"But Miss, this insect seems to like you very much. Generally, poisonous insects recognize their masters. Even if their masters die, they will not be easily controlled by others."
"I used some of my skills and it became obedient."
Nan Huan didn't scold her, but he didn't give her any specific explanation either.
After all, Cui Zhongming's insect had shown extraordinary trust in her since the first time it saw her, so after she died, the insect simply treated her as its master.
Nan Huan just didn't expect this. She didn't think this thing would be so useful, so she just left it there and ignored it. If it hadn't sensed the bug first and hit the box inside, they would probably still be trapped now.
After all, he is my savior, so I have to take good care of him in the future.
Nan Huan replaced the other party with a large box, comforted him, and put it back into the control panel.
Twelve was also very sensible and did not ask any more questions, but when she saw A Liu standing beside her, she suddenly remembered another thing.
"Miss, when I left just now, I seemed to see the Assassin's Guild leader lying on the ground?"
They were busy evacuating and in the chaos, the twelve only saw one figure and were not very sure.
"Well, I asked A Liu to do it," Nan Huan was very frank. After all, she had already given the opportunity to live in peace, but the other party was unwilling to cherish it.
He wanted his own life, and if Bei Xi hadn't reacted quickly, his neck would have been cut.
Fortunately, the opponent's skills cannot be used continuously and have a cooling time, otherwise Bei Xi would be injured.
"The Fifth Guild lost its president, and the remaining few people don't know about A-Liu's existence. They might start an internal conflict with Morpheus."
Twelve applauded Nan Huan's decision and even thought that the other party's move was very brilliant.
Unexpectedly, Nan Huan shook his head and said, "People without order may not take assassins so seriously. They always believe in people with strong abilities. Maybe they have already joined forces with Morpheus at this time. Never doubt the bottom line of bad people."
"But fortunately, the Assassin Guild Leader has been eliminated, so we have one less major threat."
Although the situation is not particularly optimistic, it is much better than the passive situation just now.
Just as we finished our work here, President Barbie and the people who went out for reconnaissance came back.
"We found traces of old classmates ahead, but there aren't many people there." President Barbie didn't consume too much energy. After everyone took a short rest, in order to avoid repeating the same mistake, she took people to check the outside. Unexpectedly, she really brought back news.
"We dare not get too close for fear of alerting them, but we can't tell what skills they have," Barbie hesitated, not knowing whether now was a good time to attack. "Normally, they should all be ordinary students, but they don't have an advantage in numbers. Why does the system dare to allow the two sides to fight?"
Bei Xi should also be thinking about this question. This is what has puzzled her from the beginning. After all, although the players' physical strength has been cut in half, their personal skills and props are not restricted. Compared with the abilities of those classmates, they are much higher.
"Just in case, let's not have a head-on conflict," Bei Xi thought for a while and made a decision. "Let's hide and follow for the time being. Let me and Liu determine whether there are any monsters watching the other side. If not, there is no need to have any conflict. If there are, we can make a long-term plan."
"I think it's feasible," Nan Huan was the first to agree, but she still looked around and asked, "How is everyone's rest? If it's too much of a stretch, we should focus on conserving our energy."
After all, the mission has only started for half an hour, and it is far from being that urgent. Nan Huan still relies mainly on their own physical strength. After all, this is also a tug-of-war.
"Don't worry, Miss. We are all fine. Those bugs didn't cause any fundamental damage. They were just a little annoying. We have rested for a while and have almost recovered."
Liushen's skills are not offensive. Taking himself as an example, this level is already considered recovery. The others also nodded.
Based on the direction and number of people provided by President Barbie, everyone discussed the specific details of the action.
A few minutes later, a group of people appeared in the dense primeval forest.
Beixi and Nanhuan took the lead and rushed to the front. Of course, there was also A Liu who had made great achievements in the battle before, plus Liushen.
The Six Gods' skills are very useful in determining whether the target is lying, or what their state of mind is when they are speaking.
In the middle was President Barbie and Uriel. On the one hand, they were worried about the group of invisible monsters that would take advantage of the chaos to surround them. On the other hand, they were in case the eldest lady and the president alerted the enemy and were preparing for a battle between the two sides.
The remaining twelve people were distributed regularly on the periphery to prevent others from breaking in while they were taking action.
There were not many students in that group, only five or six. Bei Xi and Nan Huan slowly approached them. When they could see each other's faces clearly, they were both stunned.
Because the first face they saw was a familiar face, that of the classmate Chaka who had warned them to be careful before the battle.
Bei Xi brought Nan Huan with her, and although their movements were restricted to a certain extent, she moved very carefully, after all, they were just doing it to confirm.
But before Beixi, A Liu, or Liushen could make any move, Chaka, who was communicating with his own people, suddenly stopped talking and turned to look in the direction of Beixi and Nanhuan.
At the same time, Bei Xi and A Liu both felt the power of the monster. It was no longer following them from a distance like before. It was as if they had been freed from the restraints and had broken through something in an instant.
"Oh no, we've been discovered."
"The monster is starting to move."
Nan Huan and Bei Xi spoke at the same time, and their communication channel became very busy.
The remaining players were all shocked. They hadn't figured out how they were exposed, or even why the monsters suddenly changed their nature.
Giant white icicles began to fall from the sky not far away, piercing the ground one after another, with the people from Guild One, Guild Two, and Chaka as the center.
It was like a huge net, separating the area they were in from other areas.
The large trees that were hit by the icicles were quickly covered with white frost from roots to branches. After freezing into ice, they shattered with a snap and turned into powder with the wind.
Beixi and Chaka were the two people who reacted the fastest, and they immediately ran out of the encirclement.
But even though both of them were very fast, there was still a small difference. A white transparent film extended out from the white icicle, and soon the films connected together, blocking the air tightly.
President Barbie originally wanted to jump out, but was blocked by that thing and fell heavily to the ground.
And within just a few seconds, this film turned into a huge semi-elliptical sphere, covering the central area where they were.
From the outside, it looked like a huge half crystal ball appeared in the middle of the forest.
It’s just that ordinary crystal balls contain fake snow and scenery, but inside this crystal ball, there are real towering trees and many people trapped inside.
After failing to run away the first time, Beixi, Nanhuan, and Chaka calmed down and did not make any other unnecessary attempts.
But originally Nan Huan and the others came to test whether the other party had a host. Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid they guessed it right.
But the situation seems a bit difficult. There are only five people on the opposite side, and it is obvious that they are mainly based on Chaka.
Nanhuan just wants to deceive himself and others, but he has no confidence.
She and Chaka did not have a deep friendship, but they had indeed dealt with each other, and before the battle, the other party had asked her to take care of herself. She just didn't know if he had thought that they would be face to face like this now.
And judging from Chaka's reaction, she should have realized that there was a host among their group, and she also looked very conflicted.
However, Nan Huan didn't know whether she was struggling with whether to confront them head-on or whether she was considering what to do in the current situation?
Nan Huan is now somewhat grateful for the actions of those monsters. After all, they have pushed the original battle a little towards a united front.
They even isolated troublemakers like Morpheus from outside, so that they wouldn't be trapped inside and outside. In a way, it can be considered a blessing in disguise, right?
The other people on Chaka's side naturally noticed the presence of Nanhuan and the others. Compared to Chaka, they were more worried, and the rest of the people looked at Nanhuan and Beixi with less kindness.
Or how about trying it with credits?
Nan Huan has already started calculating, if this method works, how much blood would they have to bleed?
The two parties subtly maintained a straight-line distance with the two farthest points of the ellipse as the axis, observing each other's every move with their eyes, but neither of them stepped forward easily.
Until some corners of the crystal ball, some subtle air flow directions appeared.
