Chapter 412 Sandpit Long Jump



However, there was no sound from the radio for a long time.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu's sense of foreboding had reached its peak. The sticky feeling under his feet was becoming increasingly intense, as if he were sinking into the sand. No, judging from the sensation under his feet, the substance in this sandpit was definitely not ordinary sand; it was more like some kind of viscous fluid, such as swamp or quicksand.

Time seemed to slow down, and the feeling of his body slowly sinking was incredibly clear. Every second seemed so long, making Chengzhu uncomfortable and wanting to lift his feet.

But that won't work.

8. After landing, please do not jump or stomp your feet repeatedly in the same spot.

Cheng Zhu didn't know whether this rule was for students or to help them, but whatever the reason, Cheng Zhu, who came in later, had no choice but to obey it.

Needless to say, the former's behavior was definitely aimed at the eerie thing in the sandpit, which made it very unhappy. However, it was forced to kill the student on the spot because "there was no patch before". So, it would tear apart any student who dared to do the same.

The latter is unlikely, but it's not impossible, because if the ground is indeed a swamp or similar environment, the more a person struggles, the faster they will sink.

It's a pity I didn't bring a rocket launcher with me, otherwise I could have just blindly blasted the sandpit and maybe even given the weirdo a quick BBQ, showing it what it means to say, "Sir, times have changed."

Cheng Zhu didn't know that if she really did that, even if it meant going head-to-head with the protective barrier of Weisi Star, he would still tear off the mask and kill her.

At that time, Hirano San will directly see that the Kyushu Kingdom instance is mysteriously damaged, and will only be able to send Kyushu Kingdom a special announcement that would be useless for eight hundred years: [Dear Chosen Ones of Kyushu Kingdom, due to uncontrollable technical issues, the time for new Chosen Ones to enter the instance is expected to be extended. The specific instance opening time will be subject to subsequent system announcements.]

Fortunately, none of this happened.

Cheng Zhu remained the same pitiful chosen one, standing motionless in the sandpit, gazing at the sky at a 45-degree angle, weak and helpless.

After his feet sank completely into the sand, Cheng Zhu began to have a new sensation—there was something in the sand.

This might seem like obvious, since Cheng Zhu had already guessed it before, but thinking about it in your mind is completely different from experiencing it firsthand. Cheng Zhu vaguely felt that something was wriggling and moving in the sand, like a snake. He could still feel the slight undulation through his shoes, and eventually something seemed to stop near him.

Cheng Zhu subconsciously held his breath, but he didn't feel any shortness of breath at all.

*Paji paji paji*

The thing in the sand finally emerged, but instead of the sound of sand rubbing together, it made the sound of a sticky, lumpy object being pushed up and then hitting the surrounding fluids.

The sand beneath my feet is definitely not sand! Not even quicksand!

Although Cheng Zhu remembered Alice saying that "the stadium has been merged with the virus and the meat processing plant," he hadn't felt much about it before, except for the running track. The ping-pong table was purely a game of human internal competition.

The unusual situation in the sandpit reminded Cheng Zhu of the incident, and he successfully connected the two events.

She thought of a complex sandpit for long jump.

A garbage dump.

This place is often littered with all sorts of rotten meat, and may also contain maggots and rats, which is very similar to the conditions in a sandpit.

Now, thinking back to the classmate with the injured leg, the sharp scratches on his leg seem to be claw marks.

It seems that after he gets out, he'll have to go straight to the school clinic for a second visit. If he doesn't get a rabies vaccine, a tetanus vaccine, or a hemorrhagic fever vaccine, Cheng Zhu is afraid that he'll die on the spot in front of Alice and the others before he even finishes the game.

Just as Cheng Zhu was lost in thought, the object that had emerged from the ground also got tangled around Cheng Zhu's leg.

The cold touch made Cheng Zhu shiver.

This temperature doesn't seem like that of a mouse; it's more like that of a cold-blooded animal. It's also thin and long, with a slightly sticky texture.

Even without looking down, Cheng Zhu could already picture its segmented body and off-white color.

It's definitely some kind of dead bug!

Cheng Zhu suddenly understood why some students had been jumping and stomping their feet like crazy before. Anyone who got caught up in that would feel their scalp tingling, and yet the rules prohibited such behavior.

She had never felt time pass so slowly; it seemed as if several tens of minutes had already gone by.

The thing on his leg seemed to be slowly wriggling, and the sensation of it climbing up inch by inch gave Cheng Zhu a feeling of being slowly tortured.

Don't come any closer!

Just as Cheng Zhu was expressionless but inwardly devastated, he finally heard a hopeful voice, like an angel descending in holy light and a rain of flower petals, right beside him:

"Student Christine, long jump distance in sandpit: 20 centimeters, project completed."

She's finally waited for this!

Cheng Zhu decisively took off running, quickly shaking off the object on his leg, and swiftly walked out of the sandpit.

Once outside the project area and listening to the lively crowd, Cheng Zhu knew he could finally leave. He quickly sent Joey the key information about the sandpit and strode out of the stadium.

This time, nothing stopped her.

The moment he left the stadium, he saw Alice and Mary still waiting for him at the entrance. Cheng Zhu immediately rushed over and put his arms around their shoulders, saying, "I'm exhausted..."

Compared to Mary's awe-inspiring gaze, Alice was clearly more curious: "Is it very dangerous inside?"

"It's very dangerous." Cheng Zhu nodded seriously.
