Chapter 109

Su Bei hurried out of the door, said goodbye to his mother and was about to go downstairs. Su's mother called him in confusion: "Didn't you just come back? Why are you going out again?"

"My friend is looking for me downstairs!" After putting on his shoes, Su Bei hurried downstairs and saw the uncles and aunts gathered in a circle.

He squeezed his way in and saw Feng Lan, who was still calm while being asked worriedly by the aunts and uncles whether her white hair was due to leukemia, why she ran away from the hospital, whether she dyed her hair, whether hair dyeing can cause cancer, etc. Feng Lan then replied with just two words of denial. He couldn't help but sigh at how patient this family was.

Then he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Why are you here? I have prepared dinner for you at home. Come with me!"

After saying that, he pulled Feng Lan into the corridor and asked, "How did you get here and how did you find me?"

Finally leaving the crowd, Feng Lan breathed a sigh of relief, which made Su Bei laugh: "If you were not feeling well, why did you stay in the crowd? The uncles and aunts are always the most nagging."

Feng Lan sorted out her thoughts before answering each question one by one: "I came to find you, using the [prophecy] to find you. They were very enthusiastic and had no ill intentions, so I didn't struggle."

It turned out that he found his own people through [prophecy]. Su Bei couldn't help but look sideways. Can this guy's [prophecy] be used so freely now?

However, he also knew that Feng Lan was definitely not looking for him to reminisce, so he asked directly: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

As expected, Feng Lan had a purpose: "I predicted that the most critical people in this final exam are you and Jiang Tianming. I saw the outbreak of the battle in the future fragments, and the students who fought, except you."

"Then what am I doing?" At this moment, many possibilities flashed through Su Bei's mind. Maybe Feng Lan didn't see him, maybe he was eliminated, or maybe he took the initiative to leave the "battle replica"

However, the next second he heard Feng Lan's answer: "You were on the roof... slacking off, is that right?"

Good fellow, Su Bei twitched his lips: "So the reason you came to me is... you want to slack off with me"

Who would have thought that Feng Lan actually nodded in approval, and asked with some anticipation: "Is it okay?"

He knew that he was not cut out for fighting and did not have the ability to face such a large-scale battle. [Prophecy] This ability was originally behind the scenes, and it would be irrational to actually fight on the battlefield.

Su Bei tilted his head and said, "Then you don't want the grades anymore."

The reason why he has the courage to slack off is because he has found a good way to get a high score. If he doesn't have this method and still tries to slack off, then he really doesn't take his grades seriously.

Feng Lan was prepared for the unexpected. He took something out of his schoolbag and showed it to Su Bei. It was a certificate of identification, which identified his ability as [prophecy].

This machine for identifying superpowers was developed as early as the tenth year after superpowers appeared. After many generations of improvements, it had basically become stable ten years ago, which is now.

As long as the person being identified does not resist and uses his abilities in the machine without any control, the result will be available in an hour.

"I plan to post this along with my prediction results on the forum, so that everyone can be mentally prepared for the upcoming war." Feng Lan said calmly. This is also the common practice of predictors.

As long as everyone believed him and took precautions in advance, the casualties would be reduced. This amount of casualties would be enough to score a lot of points.

In addition, this is a contribution he made by using his supernatural powers, which Meng Huai said would give him a certain amount of bonus points. So even if he couldn't get first place, his results would not be bad.

It has to be said that, as both of them have the ability to predict, their ideas are similar, both want to use the information gap to gain points. However, the difference is that Feng Lan wants to predict for ordinary people, while Su Bei wants to predict for people with special abilities.

"You only prophesy once in a while, so how can you get so much information?" Judging from his tone, he probably got a lot of information from the prophecy. Su Bei asked curiously.

Feng Lan replied: "It's because it only takes a long time, so there are no restrictions on the questions I ask..."

As soon as these words came out, Su Bei understood immediately, and envy appeared in his eyes. There are no restrictions, which means that you can predict "when the battle will start" or "the specific timeline of the battle". As long as the question is asked well, there is no news that cannot be obtained.

Of course it's not that easy, but it's definitely a good idea to get a lot of information.

"So how long will it take for the war to break out?"

Su Bei wanted to use the specific time to determine when is the best time to release the news.

We certainly cannot wait until the campaign begins to issue it. We must at least give candidates one or two days in advance to prepare, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.

"There is no specific time, we only know it is within a week." Feng Lan shook his head. In order to ensure that the content of the prophecy is more, the accuracy will inevitably be ignored.

Within a week... It seems that the academy does not plan to let them prepare for too long. Now it has been almost a week since the exam started, so there is really not much time left.

"Let's wait for Jiang Tianming's results." Su Bei shrugged, "He may be able to find out why the government is sitting on its hands and doing nothing."

At this point, he smiled maliciously and said, "We have an appointment to visit the prison tomorrow, do you want to come with us?"

Feng Lan blinked and nodded: "Yes."

Su Bei pulled him into the group and announced the visit tomorrow. Everyone immediately agreed and wanted to go together to "send warmth" to poor Jiang Tianming.

As for whether Jiang Tianming would be happy because of this "warmth", that was not something they cared about. As long as they were happy, that was all that mattered!

"Oh, right." Su Bei suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked one question yet, "What is your occupation?"

"I'm a person with special abilities, and can be considered a vagrant. I came to ask if I can stay at your house for a few days." Feng Lan answered calmly.

Su Bei of course had no objection and took him home to meet Su's mother. She learned that this was Su Bei's friend and wanted to stay at their house for a few days. It was a wonderful memory for two friends to stay together for a few days during their student days, so Su's mother naturally had no objection. She still carefully asked about Feng Lan's identity to avoid getting into trouble.

Of course, he had to tell a lie here. Su Bei lied that Feng Lan was his classmate in the next class, and they were his dining companions and had a good relationship. Only then did Su's mother feel relieved.

The next day, all the students in Class S who participated in this "battle replica" gathered at the designated location. When Zhou Renjie saw Su Bei and Feng Lan coming together, he asked casually: "Su Bei, why haven't you been active these days? Are you trying to get the last place in the exam?"

He didn't necessarily have any ill will towards Su Bei, he was just being mean. The others looked at him as if he were a fool. Didn't they see what Jiang Tianming asked in the group chat before? Su Bei obviously knew some information that they didn't know!

Si Zhaohua coughed and said, "Why are you two here together?"

Su Bei glanced at him with a half-smile before answering, "We are going to do something big together."

Feng Lan nodded seriously, agreeing with what he said.

This was something they had discussed last night. Both of them chose to publish some information to earn points, and they had the same considerations for publishing the information, so they could publish it together.

Su Bei even planned to publish it directly under Feng Lan's name at the beginning. After all, the other party's [Prophecy] testing certificate was the best way to justify his reputation.

But then he thought about it, after all, he was borrowing the other party's name, so doing so would definitely reduce the number of points he could get.

However, as long as they both release it together, Su Bei can naturally take advantage of Feng Lan's [Prophecy], which makes it easier to do so.

Hearing this, Si Zhaohua looked at them thoughtfully, then smiled and said, "I don't plan to do anything before the battle begins. Once I'm on the battlefield, my points will naturally be huge."

That's right. For a combat type like him, the best place to score is definitely the battlefield. So Si Zhaohua and others were not too anxious in the early stage. The ones who really made efforts in the early stage were all psychics like him and Feng Lan, who played a relatively small role on the battlefield.

Several people went in together. Because Qi Huang helped to make an appointment in advance, they met Jiang Tianming very smoothly. Jiang Tianming was wearing a prison uniform and his hair was a little messy. Fortunately, the boy's eyes were clear and firm, and he didn't look wolfish even in this outfit.

"Hey, isn't this Jiang Tianming? How come he's so bad after not seeing him for a few days?" The first one to mock was still Zhou Renjie. This guy is really a stubborn person.

However, this time Si Zhaohua did not change the subject, but happily followed the ridicule: "Although this is an illusion, Jiang Tianming, you are not going to commit a crime in it, right?"

As a friend in distress, Wu Mingzhi was not to be outdone at this time: "Don't say that. Being a criminal is actually a new experience. Jiang, have you been okay these past two days?"

When he said this, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Tianming's dark circles and they smiled knowingly.

In fact, Jiang Tianming, who has lived in the slums since he was a child, will definitely not be bullied by other prisoners. His physical fitness alone is far superior to others, not to mention that he is also very experienced. You know, sometimes the slums are more chaotic than prisons.

But the problem is that not only does he face various challenges at night, he also needs to do voluntary labor during the day, so naturally he can't sleep well.

Looking at their expressions, Jiang Tianming laughed angrily: "I think you don't want my intelligence anymore."

This information was very useful to Su Bei. He was very savvy and immediately said, "Look at you guys who are taking advantage of others' misfortunes. I am different. I only feel sorry for Xiao Ming. So Xiao Ming, just tell me the information in secret."

What kind of person is Xiao Ming? Jiang Tianming almost rolled his eyes when he called him that. Others also glared at Su Bei. This villain! He stepped on them to get to the top, didn't he?

After the laughter, Jiang Tianming finally told his discovery: "Su Bei, do you still remember the candidate you asked me to check before, who was arrested for giving a warning?"

Seeing Su Bei nod, he continued, "I just found out yesterday that before him, or before we came to this world, someone had already given a warning. He discovered the entrance to the alien space in the alley."

This result was not unexpected. At least everyone reacted quickly after he said it. Yes, although the alley was remote, it had been built for a while, so someone would have seen it. How could it be possible that no one reported it?

"Then have you figured out why the government didn't do anything about it?" Wu Mingbai asked immediately. This is the key question.

Lan Subing speculated quietly: "Is it because of the party politics?"

After watching so many TV dramas, this is the most noble reason Lan Subing can think of. Sometimes when internal competition is fierce, such things will be used as bargaining chips.

However, Jiang Tianming just laughed sarcastically: "The party and government are very united. They all think that an alien space is nothing, and letting the nightmare beasts out will just help them increase their political achievements."

So that's how it is! Everyone suddenly realized. The government's ability to resist the nightmare beast is indeed an achievement. If it had prepared for the rainy days in advance and not caused any trouble, it would not have been taken seriously.

"It's a pity they didn't expect that a small alien space would eventually turn into a war." Wu Mingbai said coldly.

To be honest, this is not entirely the government's fault. They thought there was only one entrance to the alien space, and they thought they could handle it themselves, so they did not report it to the outside world. If there really was only one alien space, it wouldn't be a big mistake.

But the problem is that there are still several of them in the sewer. If so many of them explode at the same time, wouldn't that be disastrous?

Now that he knew why the government didn't take action, it wasn't because of some inside story but simply because they wanted to take credit. Su Bei breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he didn't have to worry about much anymore.

If he only reported the alien space on the ground, no matter how many people reported it, they would be arrested for spreading rumors. But if he announced that there were a lot of them in the sewers, the government would have to take action.

If they didn't take action before, they could barely say that they were innocent because of ignorance. At most, they would mislead the military. But if they didn't take action after knowing that there were a lot of strange spaces in the sewers, they would be courting death. Unless everyone in the city died, once this matter was exposed, the leaders in the city would probably not survive.

"Let's take action tomorrow," Su Bei asked Feng Lan.

Feng Lan naturally had no objection and nodded. Jiang Tianming suddenly called them both: "Hey, Feng Lan, did you predict when the battle would begin?"

"Within a week." Feng Lan replied.

Hearing that the time was so tight, everyone became a little nervous. There was only one week left, and time was not enough. They had to prepare quickly.

Needless to say, those like Su Bei who were preparing to gain points before the war had already started preparing early. And those candidates who were in the combat department and needed to gain points during the war had already started to form teams.

When fighting a group of nightmare beasts, if one person rushes in alone, it will be easy to get into trouble unless he has special abilities, after all, two fists cannot defeat four hands. But if it is a small team, it will be different. Different abilities can complement each other, and if there is an assistant, it can also increase the endurance.

In addition, choosing the right terrain is also important.

The news that Su Bei had revealed before that this battle would take place either inside or outside the city had already been revealed. If it was outside the city, it would be a siege. If it was inside the city, it would be a street defense battle, and both required finding a suitable battle location.

In addition, setting traps in advance is also a very suitable method. As long as you find the right place, you will not worry about not earning points.

However, this kind of busyness must be allowed by the current order. Jiang Tianming sighed: "You know I was in prison at the beginning, but many people were directly imprisoned during this period of time."

"What's going on?" Qi Huang asked curiously. Lan Subing beside him also looked extremely curious.

"There was a candidate who became a doctor. During surgery... Anyway, he was suspected of deliberately killing a patient and was detained. There was also a person who ran outside the city in broad daylight to dig the soil. It was said that he wanted to set a trap. Because he dug up electric wires, he was temporarily detained for damaging public property. There was also a person who suddenly revealed that he was a psychic and was arrested as an undercover agent... Well, anyway, the reasons are very colorful."

After hearing these reasons, everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips. Qi Huang shook his head: "If they treat this place as a real society, they won't cause such trouble."

The candidate who was dressed as a doctor could have quit his job in this situation. In this era, everyone has a little savings, which is enough to support one or two months. If it doesn't work, you can borrow from your classmates. If you really let yourself do the surgery, it is undoubtedly extremely irresponsible to the patient. It is precisely because he does not regard the people here as real people that he does not care at all.

The same is true for the trap digger. Even if he digs in the middle of the night, he won't be discovered so easily. Digging in broad daylight, even if he has no bad intentions, will still ruin the city appearance!

There are also those who directly expose their identities as psychics. A person who was not a psychic before suddenly awakens. In real life, it seems wrong no matter how you look at it, but because this is a fantasy, the other party thinks he can do this.

"That's what they deserve. Let's not make any mistakes in the next few days." When saying this, Si Zhaohua was mainly looking at Su Bei and Feng Lan. It was obvious that he was very worried about the "action" they had just talked about.

Su Bei raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, what we are doing is good for everyone."

He also hid something else: the one who should be really troubled by this should be Qi Huang.

After all, this guy is now a policeman. Once their news is made public, there will definitely be chaos in the city. Then the police will be busy.

After returning home, Su Beixian was in the room, facing Feng Lan's puzzled and shocked gaze, and said directly: "Teacher, can I apply for an off-site connection now? If the students voluntarily give me some points, will it count?"

As soon as these words came out, the teacher watching outside the screen widened his eyes slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, he quickly called the principal. Soon, the three principals came together and learned of Su Bei's request.

Wu Di laughed: "It seems that what Xiao Meng said is right. This kid really doesn't intend to take the usual path."

Ms. Xiao was not angry about this accident, and smiled: "So what do you think? I personally think it's okay, if he can get others to give him points voluntarily."

The purpose of this assessment was to allow everyone to experience the cruelty of the battle in advance, and to understand the importance of unity and cooperation. As long as these two points are not violated and the request is reasonable, there is nothing that cannot be agreed to.

"I have no objection." Principal Shangguan also shook his head. He didn't care how Su Bei scored. Scoring was his ability. "But let me add one more rule. It must be voluntary. You can't forcibly snatch points by sending someone out."

Since this function has been opened for Su Bei, it is natural that others should also have it. However, once this new rule is in place, it will inevitably be the same as in the previous team competitions, where people will deliberately eliminate others to steal points. However, here it has become a threat to steal points from others.

However, this time was different from the team competition. This time, they wanted to let the students experience the cruelty of the battle in advance and let them unite and cooperate with each other instead of fighting against each other. Therefore, they did not agree to the rule of transferring points at the beginning.

Now that someone has brought it up, they don't mind adding this rule, but there still have to be restrictions.

At night, all the candidates heard the broadcast that only they could hear: "Please note that a new rule has been added: Points can be transferred, but it must be absolutely voluntary. Any threatening behavior will result in disqualification from the exam. Let me repeat it again..."

After hearing this broadcast, although Su Bei had already guessed that the college would not refuse, he was still in a good mood and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Feng Lan, who was standing next to him, also heard the news: "It looks like you are going to get what you want."

Su Bei laughed: "Nothing like you, the great prophet, can easily get points."

He didn't mean to mock her, what he said was true. Compared to him, it was too easy for Feng Lan to earn contribution points. His ability of [prophecy] was convincing to everyone, especially in such a big event.

However, although this can save many people, the points obtained are estimated to be in the upper middle level, so Su Bei asked: "I thought you would pursue higher results."

Feng Lan shook her head slightly: "I don't need it, and neither does my family. They would rather see my [prophecy] come into play."

The Feng family is a family that relies on prophecy. The greater the effect of [prophecy], the more they will be valued. Even if Feng Lan kills many nightmare beasts with his physical body, it will only mean so much to them. But if he saves many people with [prophecy], then he will be a living signboard.

"Thank goodness you live in a peaceful era." Su Bei's eyes flashed with sarcasm. If this family lived in a war era, they would have been captured and hidden by powerful forces.

Hearing this, Feng Lan did not seem to be angry at all. Instead, she nodded in agreement: "I will change the family."

"Of course." Su Bei was not surprised that Feng Lan would do this, and he firmly believed that he could do it. This guy is a member of the protagonist group. Unless he died for some reason, there is nothing he can't do.

Thinking that things would get chaotic tomorrow, Su Bei walked out of the room and asked his mother, "Have you bought all the supplies I asked you to buy yesterday?"

"Of course." Su's mother glanced carefully in the direction of his room, "Your classmate's family really has that kind of background."

Su Bei nodded seriously: "Of course I'm lying to you. There are people with special abilities in his family. If we say the special space has been revealed, it must have been revealed. We just need to hide at home."

Su's mother nodded seriously and said, "Fortunately, you have asked for leave and don't have to go to school. We can just stay at home and not go anywhere."
