"Oh no, they're catching up! I have to go!"
Upon hearing the monster's roar, Xu Yan's expression changed, and she immediately led everyone present to run towards the stadium.
The magic circle set up by the Oni Island ritual still remains there.
Although the effect was only so-so, the magic circle could slow down the monsters' pace.
Unfortunately, these monsters didn't want them to reach the stadium smoothly.
The roars of monsters echoed through all the passageways leading to the stadium.
It seems they weren't just wandering around aimlessly and without any organization or fear.
Instead, it was under someone's leadership that they were strategically and systematically lying in ambush.
The goal was to transform the remaining members of the Night's Watch reserve into those monsters as well.
"Your academy has become like this, why hasn't the Night Watch Bureau sent anyone over yet?"
Xu Fan couldn't help but wonder, so he asked the other students.
"We have already reported the current situation to headquarters, but for some reason, no one has come yet."
We thought you were sent from headquarters to rescue us; it seems we misunderstood.
A young man wearing glasses approached Xu Fan and told him his situation in detail.
He is Fan Tuo, the captain of the tenth squad, and also the liaison between Ghost Island and headquarters.
"The first group to experience anomalies was the teaching staff, who were attacked by the Blood Demons in the faculty and staff lounge."
After the faculty and staff were infected, they began to attack the students indiscriminately.
The teachers were already far stronger than the students, and now that they have been enhanced by the Blood Demon, their strength is even more unstoppable.
They didn't actually intend to kill the students; they simply took them to the infirmary, and the students who emerged from the infirmary had all transformed into monsters.
After listening to Fan Tuo's explanation, Xu Fan's expression grew increasingly grim. It seemed that these students had not become monsters through infection or parasitism, but rather through some kind of modification.
The renovation took place in the school's infirmary.
This indicates that the enemy invaded much earlier than they had imagined, which allowed them to build such a massive amount of modified equipment in the infirmary, demonstrating that they had ample time to prepare.
Moreover, there must be accomplices of those Blood Demons within this Night Watch preparatory academy.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to hack into the other side while they were taking their midterm exams.
The island is heavily guarded, and the best time to strike is when the students go off-campus for practical training during the midterm exams.
Outsiders could not possibly know such details; only insiders would tell this important information to the Blood Demons.
The most urgent task is to destroy the medical room's conversion machine as soon as possible.
If possible, it would be best to analyze the principle behind its transformation of students, and then use the reverse reaction to turn these students back to their original state.
But now the other side's goal is very simple: to trap these people in the school and then convert them one by one.
So what they need to do now is to weather this attack and then plan for the future.
"It seems we can't go too far. If we kill all these monsters, then these students will never have a chance to turn back."
After learning the truth, Xu Yan began to beg Xu Fan not to go too far.
This did not make things much easier for Xu Fan; on the contrary, it became a shackle for him, making him feel restricted in his actions.
Xu Yan also noticed her brother's troubles. She conjured an ice ball in her palm and looked at her brother.
"Don't worry, brother. If there are any problems you can't handle, let me take care of them. My ability is to freeze them without harming their bodies, and it will also make it easier for them to return to normal later."
Xu Fan began to feel somewhat gratified, after all, having such a sensible younger sister by his side significantly improved his quality of life.
Such frequent interactions between siblings are seen as a display of affection by others.
"I think these two people have some kind of story behind them."
"Yes, I think they all have little stories behind them."
"You guys, don't go around badmouthing others. It's really impolite."
Fan Tuo, the captain of the tenth squad, sternly warned the students who were gossiping, not to spread rumors about others.
He still held some prestige among the students. Upon hearing Fan Tuo's words, they immediately shut their mouths and quietly followed Xu Fan and his sister to the gymnasium.
The road to the stadium is indeed very dangerous, with a large number of mutated monsters lurking in the shadows.
Although he didn't use violence like last time, he subdued the monster students, restricting their movement, and then completely froze his sister and their bodies.
Xu Yan also began to control her strength, trying her best not to damage their body tissues.
With the combined efforts of the brother and sister, the team arrived in front of the stadium in a grand procession.
And there was someone they both wanted to see and least wanted to see, who appeared in front of the stadium entrance.
That was Zhuge Lieyang, who was also the first to be transformed by the Blood Demon.
Zhuge Lieyang had completely transformed into a blood demon, with a pair of wings made of blood on his back, which allowed him to float in mid-air.
What were originally human hands have now been replaced by two blood-red giant claws.
His once handsome face was now covered with intricate magical runes.
Above his forehead was a vertical eye, which glowed with a blood-red light.
