Chapter 332

"Should we tell the teacher about this?" Zhou Renjie asked. In fact, he wanted to ask who would do this task, but he felt that asking this question right away was too utilitarian. They would definitely tell him anyway, so it would be better to ask something else first.

Before anyone else could answer, Ai Baozhu denied it first: "Of course we won't tell them. They can even fail such an important mission. If we tell them in advance, who knows what accidents might happen."

After learning that the plan of the Three Learning Base had failed, Ai Baozhu lost her trust in them. After all, from this future, it can be inferred that the research of the wooden iron man must have succeeded. It is a rare opportunity to remove the meteorite, but the Three Learning Base did not seize it. No wonder she reacted like this.

Si Zhaohua also nodded. He did not share the same idea as Ai Baozhu. He mainly felt that since the Three Academy Bases could have failed in the previous timeline, there was no problem within them.

Rather than taking such a risk, it is better to let classmates who are completely trustworthy complete this task. After all, they brought the machine back, and the research was done by people in their class, so it is reasonable to give them the final task.

Everyone agreed with his idea almost immediately. They were not people who followed the rules, and knowing that the base would fail, they naturally wanted to take control of the future in their own hands.

Now that the decision has been made, the next thing to face is the crucial question. After a moment of silence, Su Bei was the first to break the silence: "There are a total of six boundary stones, who will deal with them?"

“Six pieces” everyone was stunned.

It was no secret that there were only five boundary stones. As long as one was in the supernatural world and was willing to investigate, one would definitely know. Jiang Tianming and his friends had all studied it and knew that there were five boundary stones.

Everyone was surprised to hear Su Bei say there were six pieces. But no one doubted that there was something wrong with what Su Bei said, as his intelligence was well-known in the class for being accurate.

At this moment, Qi Huang suddenly realized something and smiled bitterly: "We don't even know the location of the other five boundary stones, let alone the sixth one. The base leader may know, but didn't we say that we should keep their actions a secret? It's not easy to get the location of the boundary stone from him now."

"Feng Lan, in the future that you predicted, have you seen where they went?" Su Bei looked at Feng Lan and asked curiously.

Hearing this, Feng Lan looked at him strangely, then shook her head: "My prophecy is not that specific, and in my prophecy, they only went to five places. Don't you know where those places are?"

"My prediction is not that specific." Su Bei shook his head and laughed, but he casually took out five teleportation talismans and said, "I have five teleportation talismans for boundary stones. As for the sixth one, I just feel that it may exist."

As things progressed to this point, he was actually not that confident anymore. After all, the existence of the sixth meteorite was purely his guess, and there was no substantial evidence.

Although he just analyzed that there are six people who can complete this task, he is one of the six people he inferred! Su Bei is not sure whether the author will arrange a plot for him.

But he wasn't too worried. Even if he guessed wrong, it didn't matter. If there were only five large meteorites, the problem could be solved directly, which would only benefit him. As for the one he got wrong, it was wrong. Anyway, his goal had been achieved. Why would he care about what the readers thought?

"When did you get these five teleportation talismans?" Without worrying about the sixth boundary stone, Zhou Renjie asked with curiosity and a bit of doubt.

Su Bei replied lazily: "After I found out you would need it."

He casually opened his notebook and glanced at it, then unexpectedly raised his eyebrows: "Well, the sixth boundary stone has been found."

I didn't expect it to be so efficient. Of course, it could also be that the author was secretly controlling it. Anyway, Su Bei finally found the location of the sixth boundary stone.

It is near one of the boundary stones, and because the two have similar auras, it has never been discovered. However, the Nightmare Beasts probably know this, and their protection range includes this sixth boundary stone.

After receiving this information, Su Bei understood it immediately. It seemed that even if he had not provided this information, the person who went here would definitely find the sixth boundary stone by accident.

Thinking of this, he exchanged for another talisman for this place: "Then let's have two people go to this place."

It is worth mentioning that there are people with the ability of [Mirror Copy] in the Three Schools Base, who can copy the machines. When the time comes, each person will take a machine, and as long as they can complete their respective tasks, they can destroy the boundary stone together.

This was the basis for their actions. After all, they could only try to catch the Nightmare Beast by surprise. It was impossible to complete them one by one, and they had to complete them at the same time. Otherwise, once the Speech reacted, the ring would be hidden, or more guards would be sent, and it would be difficult to destroy it.

Seeing Su Bei casually taking out another teleportation talisman, Ah Ren's admiration was beyond words. Awesome, too awesome, Su Bei was like a treasure chest, not only did he have countless intelligence, he could also easily take out the relevant props to complete the mission. Having such a person as a teammate really made them worry-free.

All six boundary stones have been found, so the next step is to continue selecting the mission candidates. Su Bei handed five of the teleportation talismans to Jiang Tianming, and kept the last one in his own hand: "I've given you the props, you can choose the candidates yourself. I want a quota, call me when the action is ready."

Just when everyone was wondering why he was so proactive this time, providing mission props and personally participating in the mission, Ling You's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered what Su Bei had told him a long time ago, that he was pursuing human immortality.

Is this what you mean?

"By the way, Su Bei." Before he left, Jiang Tianming stopped him and reminded him, "Don't go out to destroy nightmare beasts these few days."

Su Bei made an OK gesture and walked out of the room with Feng Lan following behind him.

"You said... can we change the future?" Feng Lan, who had been following Su Bei into his room, finally couldn't help but ask.

He never cared about what happened after the predictions. Whether they could change the future after knowing it or not was irrelevant to him. As he said, he was just an observer.

But this time was different, as it involved the survival of mankind and a war that had lasted for hundreds of years. Even though he was indifferent, he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"It will definitely work." Su Bei answered without hesitation. This is a comic book world. If the protagonist fails to save the world, it will be a disaster.

After saying this, he suddenly laughed: "It doesn't seem like something I would say."

Feng Lan nodded, not trying to be euphemistic at all: "Yeah, too sure. It seems like he is really sure, but also like he is comforting himself."

Indeed, although he was sure that the author would eventually make the protagonists successful, it was clear from the words he blurted out that he was actually a little bit worried, otherwise he would not have used words to reassure himself.

Jiang Tianming was very busy in the next few days. He first found an excuse of collective injury to prevent the people who were supposed to participate in this mission from fighting. It is worth mentioning that the candidates they chose were exactly those that Su Bei had speculated before, namely Su Bei, Jiang Tianming, Lan Subing, Wu Mingbai, Si Zhaohua and Qi Huang.

As for the others, they will of course still have to take the field. Although they cannot turn the tide on their own, they are still a formidable fighting force.

Jiang Tianming then went to find Mu Tieren and explained the situation to him, asking him to cooperate with him and not tell his leader that his research was successful, but to secretly give the copied research results to them in advance.

After learning that he could succeed in his research, the efficiency of the wooden iron man actually increased significantly. He was always hesitant at first, afraid that he would damage the machine, after all, this was his first time to do research independently. Now he is much bolder, and every step is really on the right track.

In just five days, the Iron Man completed the research ahead of schedule and obtained the reverse converter.

“What do you want to talk to us about?” It was still the familiar conference room and the familiar participants, but this time it was a different initiator.

Jiang Tianming calmly told the leader the result of Feng Lan's previous prediction and stated their decision: "So we want to convert the meteorite ourselves. This is the most convenient way."

"No, I don't agree." The leader rejected him without hesitation. "Thank you very much for the intelligence you brought. I think we can wait until the gate to the Nightmare Realm is unsealed and find a team from outside. We won't be noticed by the Nightmare Beast. This loophole can be filled. There is no need for you to take risks."

Jiang Yan nodded in agreement and said earnestly: "You are still students, don't think about taking risks in everything. Whether in experience or ability, you are still inferior to adult superpowers..."

No matter what, she would never agree to let these children carry out this mission. Changing the boundary stone is a serious matter and must be completed by experienced and powerful psychics. Moreover, such a dangerous mission should not be completed by a group of students. Do they think that these adults are just eating for free?

However, before she could finish her words, Jiang Tianming interrupted her and said, "We have already set off."

"What?" The two adults in the conference room were stunned at the same time, and for a moment they couldn't understand what he meant. Aren't they still here? How come they have already left?

The next second, they saw the figures of Su Bei and others slowly disappearing from their seats.

It was only then that the two of them suddenly realized that the figures that had just spoken to them were actually illusions! The real Jiang Tianming and the others had already embarked on the path of transforming the boundary stone!

While Li Shu was explaining with great difficulty, Su Bei and others had already been teleported to the location of the boundary stone through props.

The locations of these teleportation talismans were not fixed, and they would definitely be near the boundary stone. So in order to prevent everyone from being teleported directly to the face of the nightmare beast to get a door-opening kill, Su Bei generously gave everyone an invisibility talisman.

As long as you can get close to the boundary stone while the invisibility talisman is in place, put it in with the converter, and then use the teleportation ball given by Raizen to come back, you can complete the mission perfectly.

The reason why each person is only given one invisibility charm is to control the time it takes for everyone to complete the task. After all, they are playing with a time difference, and everyone must complete the task in a very short time.

High-level nightmare beasts originally had a shared vision. Once one person completed a task, the other nightmare beasts would react almost immediately and then closely guard the boundary stone.

So there is only one teleportation talisman, and everyone must complete the task before the teleportation talisman expires, which is the point in nine minutes, and then return to the base together. Giving an extra teleportation talisman will not make everyone safer, but will put everyone in danger.

Su Bei chose to go with Jiang Tianming to the place with two boundary stones. It was expected that the other party would choose this place. He estimated that if it weren't for his "unnecessary action", Jiang Tianming should also be able to find the last boundary stone.

But there is no way. Su Bei can't really pin his hopes on Jiang Tianming's halo as the protagonist. What if the author arranged the plot for him here? If he didn't complete his own plot, God knows what would happen.

He could have been indifferent to other things, but this matter involved his long-standing goal, so he couldn't really ignore it. When the time came, he would not allow any accidents to happen in this matter.

"Are we there yet?" Jiang Tianming asked in a low voice after they had arrived at the place in stealth mode.

Other people on the phone waved their phones to take pictures of the surrounding scene.

This was Su Bei's request. He wanted everyone to turn on the video connection and point the camera at himself. This would allow him to keep an eye on the fate of these people at all times to ensure that there would be no problems.

However, despite saying so, Su Bei is actually quite relieved now. The destiny compasses on their heads are all normal, with the big needle pointing up and the small needle pointing to the left, so it can be said that there will be no problem in completing the mission.

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with the place Su Bei and his friends came to. It was just an ordinary stone forest. But after a little mental power, he could detect something wrong. Su Bei frowned: "This stone forest is alive."

Yes, a living stone forest. He could even feel the heavy breathing of the stone forest. If nothing unexpected happened, this entire stone forest should be the external manifestation of a nightmare beast.

They knew what the boundary stone looked like, it was a black stone more than one meter tall, about two meters. There were stones like this everywhere in the stone forest, and the boundary stone was hidden among them, so it was impossible to tell which one it was.

After hearing Su Bei say that this stone forest was alive, Jiang Tianming quickly made a judgment: "The two boundary stones cannot be both in this stone forest."

The stone forest was alive, which could only mean that it was a nightmare beast. Since it was a nightmare beast, the best way to deal with it hiding the boundary stone was to kill it directly, and then the boundary stone would naturally appear.

It is for this reason that if both boundary stones were hidden in the stone forest, then there would be no point in hiding the two boundary stones in one place.

"I'll go for the visible one, and you go find the hidden one." Su Bei agreed with his idea. While saying this, he adjusted the pointer in his hand to best Jiang Tianming's luck to ensure that he could find the hidden boundary stone as soon as possible.

Jiang Tianming hesitated a little: "But my luck has always been bad."

In fact, it's not bad, it's very bad. Even as a comic character, Jiang Tianming can sense how bad his luck is. If his luck wasn't so bad, there wouldn't be accidents every time he goes on a mission.

But in fact, he first realized that he had bad luck because of what Su Bei said when he first met him. If Su Bei hadn't said that he had particularly bad luck, he might not have realized it.

"Is my luck really that good?" Su Bei said, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. "I have improved your luck. You will definitely find it."

The hidden boundary stone definitely requires the protagonist's halo to find. A cannon fodder like him might not be able to find it even if he adjusted his luck to the best. Since he couldn't directly say that the other party had the protagonist's halo, Su Bei could only use this excuse.

Hearing this, Jiang Tianming was relieved. He did not ask why Su Bei did not go to find the hidden boundary stone, but left on his mobile phone while watching the video.

Su Bei was looking at the fate compass on the head of the nightmare beast, thinking about when he should act. The strongest point of the fate system is that it is unreasonable. As long as the compass moves slightly, the Stone Forest Nightmare Beast will die.

So Su Bei was not in a hurry at all. He just had to wait until the time was close to nine minutes to destroy the nightmare beast, and then use the machine to complete the transformation of the boundary monument.

There were more than one nightmare beast nearby, but the strongest one was still the Stone Forest Nightmare Beast, and the rest were just a drizzle. As long as his hand speed was fast enough, he didn't even need to deal with these small nightmare beasts to complete the task.

Everyone agreed to wait until everyone had found the boundary stone before taking action. Among the six of them, Jiang Tianming undoubtedly had the most difficulty in completing this first step.

He had no idea where the boundary stone was hidden, and the only clue he had was that the boundary stone was definitely not in the stone forest.

No, you never know!

Jiang Tianming realized something and immediately said to Wu Mingbai in the video: "Can you help me see if there is a sixth boundary stone under the stone forest?"

Yiwu knew that his current supernatural powers were not enough to control the earth element through the screen, but it was still easy to see through it.

But unfortunately Wu Mingbai couldn't see through it for a while: "The situation below is blocked by the nightmare beast above. I have to wait until it is destroyed before I can see the situation below."

Whether to gamble or not is the question.

If the bet is won, then everyone will be happy. After the others have transferred the five boundary stones, Jiang Tianming will transfer the sixth stone hidden underground.

But if they lose the bet, it means that they have already made a move, but have not successfully found the sixth boundary stone. With the speed of the Nightmare Beast, it will only take a few minutes to reach the battlefield. Then things will be troublesome.

"My luck is very good now, right?" Jiang Tianming asked Su Bei in the group. Because of invisibility, he didn't know where Su Bei was now.

【Dongnanxi: Well, it’s up to you. 】

Jiang Tianming no longer hesitated and asked everyone to start destroying the nightmare beasts. After Su Bei destroyed the nightmare beasts in the stone forest, he would go to the bottom of the stone forest to find the sixth boundary stone.

With his command, everyone immediately started to move. In the past ten minutes, everyone had already made arrangements in advance with the help of their stealth abilities. Now, as soon as the action started, everyone started fighting almost immediately and gained the upper hand with a huge advantage.

But no one can fight faster than Su Bei. With an adjustment pointer and an instant skill, the Stone Forest Nightmare Beast couldn't even last five seconds.

Because he had to leave space for Jiang Tianming to find the sixth block, Su Bei did not try to save energy by increasing his hand speed, but instead destroyed the other two high-level nightmare beasts around him.

All the stone pillars suddenly broke and scattered all over the ground. Only one black stone pillar in the middle remained standing. It was obvious that this was the boundary stone they were going to destroy.

While Su Bei was walking towards the boundary stone, Jiang Tianming had already quickly contacted Wu Mingbai and asked him to help find out whether there was a sixth boundary stone underground during the battle.

Yi Wu knew that with his current abilities, it was no big deal to deal with one or two high-level nightmare beasts. He took the time to help take a look and soon found what they wanted: "In the corner east of the stone forest, where the stones are pressing down."

Su Bei was not in a hurry to convert the meteorite, so he went over to help dig the ground. Wu Ming's perception was not wrong, but after digging five meters deep, they found the sixth boundary stone.

"Great, now all six stones have been found!" Even a calm man like Jiang Tianming couldn't help showing joy at this time. Now they just need to wait for others to get the boundary stone, and then they can act in unison.

The reason for the unified action is that Jiang Tianming suspected that there would be some traps on these meteorites, for example, as long as one is destroyed, the other meteorites will automatically generate protective skills. Or as long as one is destroyed, the nightmare beast will immediately descend.

To be on the safe side, they had better act in unison.

No one dropped the ball, and everyone quickly achieved their respective goals. Except for Su Bei, the others' goal was only to get close to the boundary stone instead of destroying the nightmare beasts, and this task was much easier than destroying these nightmare beasts.

Lure the tiger away from the mountain, besiege Wei to save Zhao, make a feint to the east and attack in the west... Everyone used different tricks, and finally they all succeeded in touching the boundary stone.

Seeing that the second step of the mission had been completed, Jiang Tianming gave an order, and everyone suppressed their excitement and took out the machines. The machines automatically absorbed and converted as soon as they touched the boundary stone.

Then the next second, everyone heard a unified mechanical voice: "The concentration of earth element is not enough, and the conversion cannot be completed. Please quickly increase the earth element content of the machine, please quickly increase the earth element content of the machine."

Everyone's excited expressions froze on their faces.

Insufficient element concentration

Unable to complete conversion

What to do? The only one who can increase the concentration of earth element is Wu Mingbai. But Wu Mingbai does not have the ability to clone himself, so it is impossible for him to come to other people all at once to "refuel" the machine.

At the same time, countless nightmare beasts were approaching from all directions at a very fast speed. If they couldn't solve the problem immediately, they would have to leave quickly. And the converter couldn't transmit twice in a row, which meant that they couldn't even bring the boundary stone back.

What to do now
