Chapter 112
Feng Lan nodded, indicating that he had guessed correctly. Then he frowned slightly and said, "The answer given by the prophecy is very reliable, but fate can play tricks on people sometimes."
As someone who often makes predictions, he can naturally discover this problem. Prophecies will not lie, but sometimes the content interpreted through prophecies can be far from the truth.
He had some doubts about the result of this prophecy. Not dying might not mean they succeeded, it might just be a literal meaning.
However, he did not interpret it for Jiang Tianming and the others. Predictions like this are prone to backfire. If they were calm, Feng Lan would not mind interpreting it for the sake of friendship. But since they had already concluded the mystery as soon as they saw it, he naturally would not cause trouble for himself.
You won't die anyway, so there's no need to worry.
Su Bei thought the same as he did. In fact, because of his God's perspective, he saw it more clearly than Feng Lan, who really had the ability of prophecy.
He said with a smile: "Then let them be teased for a while, they will learn a lesson from their mistakes."
Although the final exam is important, it is just a final exam after all. Moreover, this is still a fantasy, and it is better to suffer losses in a fantasy than in reality.
Even the protagonists didn't have a smooth journey, they always had to experience setbacks. Su Bei was quite open-minded about their failure this time.
But he was a little worried. If the "battle replica" next door really won, wouldn't he really have to accompany his "battle replica" candidate to the bottom?
In fact, Su Bei didn't care about his grades. To be honest, he had no elders or relatives. No matter how well he did in the exam, who would he show it to? As long as he had the knowledge and strength in his own hands, that was enough. He really didn't care about grades.
But the problem is that as a comic character, Su Bei, he has to pay attention to his grades. With his character setting, his grades are either always good or always bad. Changing his grades because of other people is a bit ooc.
Although the next door may not win, it is unrealistic to pin all hopes on the next door failing. Similarly, it is unrealistic to pin all hopes on Jiang Tianming, the real protagonist, to win. If you want to control your own destiny, you have to rely on yourself.
He had to find a way to get more benefits now, while there weren't too many candidates eliminated.
But what does he have in his hand that he can exchange with others?
After thinking for a while, Su Bei didn't have any idea. He shook his head, not in a hurry. It was just a final exam, and even if they really lost, he estimated that they could still get first place. Thinking this way, it didn't really affect them.
Don't be in a hurry. Let's wait until Jiang Tianming and his team's plan is completed.
Time passed quickly and it was the day before the plan was to be implemented. Thanks to the continuous efforts of the candidates in the past few days, the number of low-level nightmare beasts visible to the naked eye had decreased a lot.
The low-level nightmare beasts that were originally marching in densely packed lines on the streets were now mostly gone, and some open space began to appear.
Several alien spaces have been successfully sealed. Although most of the mutants were killed or injured, fortunately no new nightmare beasts will appear. They only need to deal with the existing ones.
But what followed was the appearance of intermediate and advanced nightmare beasts.
The west of the city is completely inaccessible, as the high-level nightmare beast that controls illusions is lurking there. From a distance, you can only see the entire west shrouded in mist, and once you actually set foot there, you will immediately face the same situation as Su Bei at that time.
Many teams of psychics went to check after noticing the anomaly, but few succeeded in getting out.
You have to know that Su Bei was able to successfully get out not only because he saw through the nature of the illusion, but more importantly, he was in an invisible state at the time!
If he hadn't been invisible at the time, then when he fell into the illusion, the high-level nightmare beast would have attacked him. In the illusion, he couldn't observe the real things through his naked eyes and mental power. If he was attacked in this situation, even Su Bei would have been in danger of death, let alone others.
With so many candidates dying in the process, everyone knew that it must be a high-level nightmare beast. Those who had in-depth transactions with Su Bei knew the details of the nightmare beast even better.
Soon, another high-level nightmare beast also showed up. Perhaps because the king did not meet the king, the other party chose to occupy the east direction of the city, which was exactly opposite to the illusion nightmare beast. His ability was also understood through the successive tests of the superpowers.
Its ability is very simple, it is teleportation. But so far, there is no apparent limitation, as if it has no CD and no distance. However, judging from the fact that it only occupies the eastern part of the city, it is estimated that the longest distance of teleportation is the diameter of the area it occupies.
Compared to the illusion nightmare beast next door, this high-level nightmare beast is much easier to deal with. Teleport is indeed very strong, but it is completely restrained by the control system. As long as you can temporarily control it, you can easily kill it.
Therefore, this morning, Jiang Tianming came to tell Su Bei that their plan had changed. They planned to deal with this teleporting nightmare beast first, and then concentrate all their strength to deal with the other one.
After one was killed, they would use all their strength to deal with the other one. Originally, they were not sure if they could only rely on Si Zhaohua's ultimate move to deal with two high-level nightmare beasts. But if they only had to deal with one, the probability of winning would be greatly increased.
Su Bei didn't say anything, just thinking about the result that Conghua and the others saw above their heads yesterday. He originally thought that the little finger pointed to their final plan, but now it seems that he was wrong. The little finger pointed to the result of their fight against the teleporting nightmare beast this time.
There is no doubt that they will fail, and after the failure they probably won't carry out the final plan. Su Bei shook his head helplessly. It was true that plans could not keep up with changes. All his previous hard work was in vain.
...No
Suddenly, Su Bei realized something. It was a foregone conclusion that he would go to the rooftop of the gymnasium. This was the place Feng Lan saw in the future fragments.
In this case, it means that the final plan will still be carried out.
There are two possibilities. Either they failed to assassinate the teleporting nightmare beast once, and then regrouped and tried again. Or they succeeded the second time, so they carried out the original plan.
Otherwise, they will mistakenly think they succeeded the first time...
Su Bei walked to the window, looked towards the east of the city, and began to mourn for Jiang Tianming and the others. No matter what the situation was, they were all miserable.
As expected of the protagonists, they can endure hardships. Unlike him, he can't stand the slightest bit of suffering.
At night, Si Zhaohua and his team came back and brought a "good news" - the teleporting nightmare beast had been killed by them!
The method used is very simple. Several people go in together and attract the other party to appear.
This teleporting nightmare beast is a humanoid nightmare beast, just like the little black man in the cartoon, with a black body. Holding a dagger in hand, it suddenly appears like an assassin and goes straight to the vital parts.
The high-level nightmare beasts were very fast, and they appeared suddenly, so it was impossible to avoid them. Fortunately, before they came in, Wu Mingbai had cleverly sealed everyone's vital parts with stones.
After hitting the hand without a target, the nightmare beast disappeared immediately, not giving them any time to react. Then it suddenly flashed several times, and each attack, although it did not penetrate the stone layer, would shatter the stone that Wu Mingbai had taken out.
If this continued, Wu Mingbai would be the first to collapse, because he was already a little overwhelmed. The nightmare beast appeared very quickly, almost as soon as he regenerated the stone. After a while, although the mental power consumed in making stone armor was not much, Wu Mingbai's mental power was gradually unable to support it.
Knowing that this would only waste time, Lan Subing directly used the [Word Spirit] to command that the next creature that came into contact with her body would be immobilized.
Of course it was impossible for her to directly kill a high-level nightmare beast with her ability, but it was entirely possible for her to just make the request.
Sure enough, when the teleporting nightmare beast touched her, it was frozen. Everyone attacked together, but found that they could not cause much damage to it. So Zhou Renjie used his supernatural power to swallow the nightmare beast that was about to move into his stomach, and then endured the abdominal pain and left the teleporting nightmare beast's area with everyone else.
High-level nightmare beasts all have their own territory, and their strength will be greatly enhanced within the territory.
It was for this reason that the final planned location was set at the Municipal Stadium in the city center, rather than going directly to the opponent.
After leaving the teleporting Nightmare's territory, the opponent was finally killed by them.
——This is what Su Bei got from Jiang Tianming.
How should I put it... Anyway, Su Bei already had an idea in his mind. He was sure that the high-level nightmare beast that could only teleport was not dead. Not only was it not dead, it might even give these people a blow when they executed their final plan.
He immediately sent a message to Si Zhaohua: "Send me a selfie."
Si Zhaohua quickly sent a photo. He must have just finished taking a shower at home. His long silver hair was still a little wet and spread out behind his head. He was wearing black pajamas that looked expensive and he looked very noble.
Then a video call came in. Su Bei answered the call and the other party asked directly: "What's the matter with you asking me to send the photos?"
Su Bei activated his supernatural power, looked at the little finger on his head that had already tilted to the lower half, moved his finger, and sneered: "See if you are dead or not."
Now it seems like I'm really going to die.
That's right, according to their final plan, even if the teleporting nightmare beast originally wanted to take revenge on Wu Mingbai, Lan Subing or Zhou Renjie, it would definitely be attracted to Si Zhaohua in the end and attack him.
Hearing his answer, Si Zhaohua laughed angrily: "Not dead, are you disappointed?"
"Not really disappointed." Su Bei shrugged, "I'm going to die soon anyway."
"What do you mean?" As soon as these words came out, Si Zhaohua's originally relaxed and comfortable expression suddenly became serious, "Am I going to die?"
Unlike his urgency, Su Bei remained nonchalant: "You know, it takes a lot of energy for me to spy on other people's fate."
Si Zhaohua simply wanted to punch him. This guy predicted when he would be in trouble. Sometimes Si Zhaohua couldn't help but doubt that his predictions had no losses at all!
However, he did not get into a fight with her, but immediately asked calmly, "What do you want?"
Su Bei was a kind-hearted man and didn't ask for much: "One third of your final points."
Si Zhaohua must have earned a lot of points. With this one-third, his grades would definitely be among the best. Even if everyone next door added 500 points, he would not be afraid.
Apparently his lion's words startled Si Zhaohua: "If it's one third, I might as well quit now. Maybe the final result will be higher than asking you for help."
Su Bei shrugged: "That depends on how much you trust yourself."
If he believed that he could kill another high-level nightmare beast and gain the final victory, then he would naturally make more money by trading with him. After all, he hadn't earned much points yet.
But if you don't have the confidence to do those things, then quitting now is also a timely way to stop losses.
Although Su Bei seemed to have handed over the decision-making power to Si Zhaohua, it was not difficult to see from his confident look that he was obviously very sure of Si Zhaohua's choice.
Seeing him like this, Si Zhaohua felt a little itchy. But he suddenly remembered something else: "But Feng Lan's prediction is that none of us will die."
But then he thought of another possibility: "Could it be that I didn't die because of that plan?"
Su Bei shook his head. It was because he guessed that Si Zhaohua would die in the plan that he came to look at his destiny compass. It can be said that the cause of his death is almost beyond doubt.
After thinking for a while, Su Bei said with a smile: "Maybe his prophecy includes your agreement to my deal."
Si Zhaohua was speechless. It was really possible. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Can I use supernatural props or real money to settle the bill after I get out?"
Hearing this, Su Bei shook his head slightly: "The life that is precious to you must be exchanged for something that is important to you."
Of course, the supernatural props were very useful, and it was obvious that Si Zhaohua would never fool him with something inferior. But first of all, what he needed more now was points, and he already had a batch of props, so he was not in a hurry to buy more.
Secondly, as he said, saving a life requires the other party to exchange something important to him. If it is simply precious but unimportant to Si Zhaohua, exchanging it will only lower his style.
Si Zhaohua has always been a very decisive person. Seeing that Su Bei had no intention of changing his mind, he nodded decisively: "I agree to come."
Just as Su Bei expected, Si Zhaohua, who was very confident in himself, must have believed that he could earn more points by staying. He would not be willing to quit so early, especially when he knew that he could survive.
On the day of the final plan, Su Bei arrived at the rooftop of the city gymnasium early. The rooftop here was not empty, there were many seats and some miscellaneous items.
Su Bei arrived at the place he had chosen last time. This was a place with a better view. Turning left, he could see the outside of the gymnasium, and turning right, he could see the inside of the gymnasium. There was also a high wall covering it, making it a Feng Shui treasure land that was not easily discovered.
I checked the time. It was 4pm and their action time was 5pm. He came to the site an hour early. Anyone who saw him would say that he had good intentions.
Soon, Jiang Tianming and others arrived. Si Zhaohua entered the gymnasium alone, while the rest of the people stood outside. Their positions were very particular, dividing the gymnasium equally.
Lan Subing went into the office building next door, preparing to use the [Word Spirit] to carry out some assassinations.
Qi Huang sprinkled the gasoline she got from other candidates all over the ground. The fire attribute combined with gasoline caused the maximum damage.
Jiang Tianming entered the souvenir shop near the gymnasium. The goods inside were numerous and diverse, which was very suitable for his [Object Control] ability.
Zhou Renjie rubbed his stomach weakly, looking like he had been hungry all day.
Wu understood that some earth walls should be built at each person's location to facilitate their maneuvers later.
Because everyone was hiding at home and there were no residential buildings nearby, there were only a few Nightmare Beasts scattered around the gymnasium, which were of course cleared out during the preparation process.
Everyone was ready, and when the time came, Si Zhaohua activated his supernatural power, and a pair of large white wings appeared behind him. With a flap of the wings, the whole person soared into the air and flew into the air.
Su Bei adjusted the angle slightly and used the high wall to protect himself so that the guy would not discover him so quickly.
It's not time for him to appear yet.
Standing high and looking far, you can see from a distance that the nightmare beasts around are running towards the gymnasium as if they heard a call. The farthest nightmare beasts in the field of vision are all rushing here, which is enough to show how attractive Si Zhaohua is.
The first wave of nightmare beasts arrived, and the battle started quickly. The S-class students were no exception, and they quickly intercepted them. But after intercepting the first batch, there was still a second batch, and soon the entire gymnasium was surrounded by nightmare beasts.
Some of them took advantage of the situation and ran into the gymnasium, but were easily killed by Si Zhaohua who was well prepared. Although his target was a high-level nightmare beast, it was still easy to kill a few minions.
The appetizers were over, and the mid-level nightmare beasts appeared. Unlike the low-level nightmare beasts that could be killed in large numbers, the mid-level nightmare beasts had more diverse abilities and forms, and it would take a lot of effort for one person to deal with them.
At this time, the advantage of their previous positioning was revealed. The distance between each of them was not too far, so as long as they could multitask, they could cooperate with each other.
Wu Mingbai raised a pillar of earth directly under Zhou Renjie's feet, sending him into the air, giving him a chance to digest the nightmare beasts in his stomach. As long as the low-level nightmare beasts in his stomach were digested, he could swallow two medium-level nightmare beasts in one breath.
Qi Huang covered all the objects controlled by Jiang Tianming with a layer of flames, which not only increased the damage of Jiang Tianming's attacks, but also gave Jiang Tianming a chance to support himself.
Su Bei on the platform had a complicated expression. Before he knew it, the protagonists had grown to this point. They are indeed the protagonists. Perhaps only people like them can become the protagonists.
Suddenly, his spiritual power sensed something approaching, but he could not capture it specifically. Su Bei immediately knew what it was, used the invisibility talisman, and sat down directly in front of Si Zhaohua.
The high-level nightmare beast is coming, and the fun has just begun inside the gymnasium.
Without advanced mental power, Si Zhaohua naturally could not sense the arrival of the advanced nightmare beast as quickly as he did.
But the Nightmare Beast always brings an uncomfortable aura to people. When sensing this aura, Si Zhaohua decisively folded his wings and wrapped himself tightly inside.
In the next second, a fierce attack hit the wing protection directly.
But even if Su Bei used his mental power to the fullest, he could not sense the other party's existence at all.
It's an illusion nightmare beast.
It has to be said that its ability is indeed very strong. With the help of illusion, it can easily approach and attack the enemy. When the enemy wants to counterattack, they will find that they can't capture the opponent at all, so how can they counterattack?
Unfortunately, this nightmare beast doesn’t know that Si Zhaohua’s skills are specifically designed to restrain it.
After confirming who the person was, Si Zhaohua did not say anything and directly launched his ultimate move: "Divine Judgment——"
As he shouted out his commands word by word, the sky suddenly changed. The sand and rocks spun without wind, and the originally white mist in the sky dissipated, revealing the dazzling sun.
It was already six in the afternoon, but the sun was shining as brightly as if it were noon. The sacred golden light shone directly on the area in front of Si Zhaohua.
Under the sunlight, the weirdness was nowhere to be hidden. A completely black, but colorful bubble appeared in the eyes of Su Bei and Si Zhaohua.
This is the true form of this high-level nightmare beast!
Although the bubble nightmare beast did not move, Su Bei, who had personally experienced the "Divine Judgment", knew that it was not that it did not want to move, but that under this special power, it could not move at all.
Then Si Zhaohua's emotionless voice rang out again: "I find you guilty."
Almost as soon as the words fell, a golden light flashed, and the bubble nightmare beast covered by the golden light suddenly seemed to have received a huge stimulus, and the entire bubble shook violently.
Sudden!
"Bang!"
The bubble burst and everything disappeared.
Su Bei was amazed at what he saw. With his supernatural powers, he could tell that the Bubble Nightmare Beast was really destroyed. Si Zhaohua's ultimate move, which he had hidden for so many episodes, was indeed amazing. It could easily destroy a high-level Nightmare Beast.
Of course, it was not easy. When the golden light disappeared, Si Zhaohua's face turned pale as paper, and he looked extremely weak, as if he would fall down if the wind blew. It could be said that he had consumed all his mental energy to use this skill.
Assuming that the time was almost up, Su Bei moved the little hand on his head to the far left, and at the same time moved the little hand on Si Zhaohua's head to the top.
It is worth mentioning that, as mentioned before, moving the pointer from right to left consumes more mental energy than moving it from left to further left. And moving the pointer from bottom to top consumes even more mental energy than moving it from right to left. Reversing the change of life and death directly consumed half of Su Bei's mental energy.
After adjusting the pointer, Su Bei threw a gear towards Si Zhaohua.
At the moment he swung out the gear, something strange happened! A little black man suddenly appeared behind Si Zhaohua who was about to land, and stabbed his neck with a dagger, and was about to take Si Zhaohua away.
"bite!"
There was a crisp sound of metal collision, and the dagger stabbed into the gear that suddenly appeared and was bounced away.
The black nightmare beast was startled and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Everything happened so fast, almost in an instant. Before Si Zhaohua could figure out what was happening, he heard Su Bei's voice from above: "Put away the supernatural power."
Si Zhaohua subconsciously put away his Angel power and looked up. He saw Su Bei sitting on the edge of the rooftop, with one leg bent and the other leg hanging down leisurely, looking down at him.
Si Zhaohua was shocked. Why was he here? When did he come?
Facing his shocked gaze, Su Bei jumped down from the roof, stepped on the pillar to gain leverage, and successfully landed on the ground.
At this time, because Si Zhaohua's attraction to the nightmare beasts increased, many nightmare beasts had already gone crazy and broke through the blockade of Jiang Tianming and his group, and rushed into the gymnasium.
Su Bei squatted in front of him, looked straight at Si Zhaohua who was kneeling on one knee, grabbed his wrist, and raised his eyebrows at him: "Saving a life and escaping at the same time, how about it, isn't it worth it?"
At the same time, "fixed-point transmission" is launched!
The two disappeared at the spot together.
