Chapter 51

Su Bei succeeded in his attack and immediately ran away with Mo Xiaotian.

Si Zhaohua, who didn't notice anything unusual, put away his special powers, walked over to look at the corpse of the nightmare monkey, turned around and asked, "I'll do it."

Although as the young master of the Si family, Si Zhaohua probably won't need to cook for the rest of his life. But he thought that he could not do it, but he had to know how to do it, so he still studied hard for a while.

Ai Baozhu had eaten nightmare meat before, and it tasted good and was very nutritious. So although she was very delicate, she didn't mind this black meat.

Hearing Si Zhaohua's initiative to ask for help, he conjured up a small [Gorgeous Domain], took out a rose from it and gave it to Si Zhaohua, smiling sweetly: "Thank you, Zhaohua."

What she meant was that she hoped Si Zhaohua would do her share as well.

That's right, she can't cook. Contrary to what Si Zhaohua thought, Ai Baozhu firmly believed that as long as she didn't learn, she wouldn't have to cook. No one could ask her to cook!

Zhou Renjie didn't know how to cook either, so he could only watch Si Zhaohua helplessly. He felt that his connections and family background were not as good as those of these two people, so he naturally didn't dare to make the same request as Ai Baozhu.

Fortunately, although Si Zhaohua has always been arrogant, his arrogance is so high that he disdains to embarrass others, so he did not treat anyone differently and quickly grilled three pieces of meat, one for each person.

After eating a few bites, Ai Baozhu suddenly looked at her watch and exclaimed in surprise: "Why didn't we add any points?"

Let me explain this in two ways.

Su Bei, who had already run far away, looked at his watch and nodded with satisfaction: "Mission accomplished."

Mo Xiaotian, who had already passed his excitement, finally remembered to use his brain and asked with some concern: "We stole their nightmare beast, will we be retaliated against?"

Hearing this, Su Bei said sanctimoniously: "Why are they fighting? What they need is lunch, and what we need is points. There is no conflict."

"Can it still be calculated like this?" Mo Xiaotian raised his head stupidly and asked puzzledly.

Su Bei was naturally very sure of what he said, and then he observed the surrounding environment: "We haven't accepted the next mission yet, let's rest here first."

Hearing his words, Mo Xiaotian was stunned again, and asked hesitantly: "Shouldn't we destroy the Nightmare Beast or eliminate other teams to earn points?"

Su Bei lazily found a big tree to sit down against, bent one leg, and said leisurely: "Why rush? It's only the first day."

The monthly team competition was given three days, and teams were allowed to compete for points. This meant that no matter how many points they had earned in the first two days, unless they decisively quit, they would likely lose a lot of points by the third day.

Moreover, there is a ranking list that shows points. The more points you have, the easier it is for others to focus on you. It is an unwise choice to make yourself the focus in the past two days.

Su Bei looked at his watch and couldn't help but sigh. Now their team is firmly in first place with a high score of 500 points. The second place is Si Zhaohua's team, but it only has 200 points.

It doesn't matter if you have high points in the early stage, after all, no one will be stupid enough to target them immediately. As long as the ranking drops later, it's fine.

The reason why Su Bei chose to complete the task instead of messing up at the beginning was to cover up his real intention of grabbing something big on the third day.

Otherwise, if they see that their team's scores are always low, they will be able to guess his thoughts and then they will become public enemies.

I don't know if Jiang Tianming has the same idea as Su Bei. They have been messing around for two hours, but there is still no new task. The points in the group have increased a bit, but it is only 60 points more.

This place is indeed hidden. No one or nightmare beast has come here in the past two hours. Su Bei is enjoying it, but Mo Xiaotian is almost sick. Seeing that Su Bei is resting, he did not disturb him. From sitting with him at the beginning, to standing up and jogging for exercise, he has now begun to replicate his previous behavior of drilling wood to make fire.

Or the version without oxygen.

Su Bei: "..."

He opened his eyes and saw this scene and immediately laughed, this ADHD child. Before he could say anything, he heard the rustling sound of leaves not far away.

Something is coming.

Su Bei's eyes suddenly became alert, and he quietly stood up and took defensive actions. In contrast, Mo Xiaotian's eyes were excited and shining. He looked at Su Bei with a pleading look and lip-synced: "Can you stop hiding?"

Seeing this, Su Bei could only nod helplessly. Anyway, with their abilities, it would not be difficult for them to escape whether they encountered nightmare beasts or humans. Moreover, the other party was a genuine member of the protagonist group, and it was impossible for him to be eliminated at this time.

Not long after, a group of people came in. They were not strangers, but all the familiar classmates from Class F in Su Bei! Among them, Wu Jin and Zhao Xiaoyu were in the team. Judging from the position, Zhao Xiaoyu should be the leader of this group if nothing unexpected happened.

Obviously, they didn't expect to meet Su Bei and the other guy here. A hint of vigilance flashed in Zhao Xiaoyu's eyes, and he stood there without moving.

The students from Class F at the back had no intention of greeting Su Bei. In this class, apart from the protagonists and Feng Lan, the others had almost no interactions with Su Bei.

In the previous individual competition, they also realized the huge gap between them and Su Bei and others through the ranking, so naturally they would not feel any intimacy in the same class. They just felt that Jin Lin was not an ordinary person, and these people were definitely assigned to the wrong class.

Mo Xiaotian, the only one not in Class F, wanted to speak, but no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he had to wait until the atmosphere became harmonious before he could chat. So he stood behind Su Bei obediently and kept silent.

In the end, it was Zhao Xiaoyu who took the initiative to break the silence. She smiled and asked, "Su Bei, I remember that you were in a team with Jiang Tianming, right? Have you separated?"

Su Bei did not lie and answered the question honestly. He was not so weak that he would have to rely on Jiang Tianming's power when facing a group of F class students.

However, it is not his character to passively accept inquiries. After answering Zhao Xiaoyu's question, he raised his eyebrows and said, "How did you two get together?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoyu showed a slightly bitter expression, which made her look very sympathetic. However, based on Su Bei's limited understanding of her, this bitterness was probably intentional.

"The school rules state that Class A must team up with Class F, but they didn't really want to take us with them. They were just forced to do so by the rules. We were all abandoned by our original teammates after entering the alien space."

This was an answer that Su Bei expected, but it was obviously not what Mo Xiaotian expected. He widened his eyes and said angrily: "How can they abandon their teammates? This is too much!"

His words opened the mouths of everyone in Class F, and everyone immediately started accusing each other.

"Yeah, they're going too far. That's not what we said when we formed the team!"

"I was even mocked by someone for Class F not being worthy of participating in the team competition. I was so angry!"

"You don't know how much they are going to do. If they couldn't hurt their teammates, they would even want to send us out themselves to prevent us from giving away points to others."

As they talked, Mo Xiaotian followed suit and criticized them, just like a supporting actor. If Su Bei didn't know his character, he might have thought he was deliberately stirring up public anger to watch the show!

Su Bei was not the only one who knew Mo Xiaotian. After all, he often came to Class F during that period of time. With his top-notch personality, he was very familiar with most of his classmates.

Seeing his indignant look, Zhao Xiaoyu rolled his eyes and pretended to be worried and said, "I gathered these abandoned members of Class F together to prove to others that we are also a force that cannot be ignored! But without superpowers, we can't even kill an ordinary nightmare beast. If there is no protector, I think we will be eliminated soon."

At this point, she sighed deeply and said with a wry smile: "Let's just forget about it. Maybe we will just be a drag on others."

The superb performance really aroused Mo Xiaotian's deep sympathy. He looked at Su Bei with hope: "How about we..."

Before he finished speaking, Su Bei interrupted him and said to Zhao Xiaoyu with a touching look on his face: "You are so inspiring! In order to prove the strength of Class F to others, you even refused to accept help from people in other classes. If I could be separated from my teammates in Class A, I would definitely go to help you!"

Zhao Xiaoyu: “…”

With her intelligence, she could not fail to understand that Su Bei was trying to stop her from asking Mo Xiaotian for help. It was also because her previous statement was wrong. She only thought about exaggerating and forgot to pay attention to the details, which gave Su Bei the opportunity to turn the tables.

Mo Xiaotian didn't notice the ups and downs in the conversation at all. He suddenly realized, "So that's what happened! I took it for granted. I only wanted to help Xiaoyu, but didn't think about whether you guys were willing to let me help you."

After saying this, he apologized very sincerely. Judging from Zhao Xiaoyu's rarely distorted face, he must have been very angry about this behavior.

But Zhao Xiaoyu is Zhao Xiaoyu after all. He adjusted his expression very quickly and said decisively: "It doesn't matter. We will leave first. I wish you the final victory."

After maintaining her image as a decent person, she didn't want to stay any longer, so she turned around and led everyone back the same way.

At this time, Su Bei suddenly stopped her and said, "You are not tired of leading so many people."

Zhao Xiaoyu's expression changed, and he smiled gently, "Of course I won't be tired. We are in a relationship of mutual help."

Su Bei looked at her thoughtfully, and went back to sit under the tree. He couldn't tell whether Zhao Xiaoyu's words were true or not, but one thing was certain, that was, she was definitely not looking for so many people out of kindness.

If Zhao Xiaoyu only took Wu Jin with him, that would be normal. They were from the same group and needed to stick together after being abandoned.

But it is totally unnecessary to bring along the other members of Class F. Besides being able to give others a collective experience pack, what else can they do? Even if they wanted to use a human wave tactic, it would be difficult to defeat the psychics of Class A and Class B.

By the way, Si Zhaohua and the other two are together, Zhao Xiaoyu and Wu Jin are together, so where is Feng Lan?

Realizing this, Su Bei frowned and looked at Zhao Xiaoyu who had not left yet: "Where is Feng Lan?"

Zhao Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then realized something: "Have you met Si Zhaohua and the others? They didn't even send you out."

If she had not met Si Zhaohua and the others, how could she have asked about Feng Lan's whereabouts after seeing only her and Wu Jin walking together.

Su Bei did not answer, but asked again: "Where did Feng Lan go?"

This is a very important question. Su Bei vaguely feels that something unexpected is going to happen. You know, Si Zhaohua and the others might let Zhao Xiaoyu and Wu Jin fend for themselves, but they will never drive Feng Lan away.

The possibility that Feng Lan chose to leave was not high. His special ability was [Prophecy], which was a stronghold that needed to be protected. Besides, Feng Lan was not a difficult person to get along with, so there was no reason for him to be a lone ranger.

He didn't leave on his own, nor was he chased away, so why didn't he go with the main force?

"This is exclusive information. If you want to know..." Zhao Xiaoyu instinctively wanted to gain some benefit from this news.

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wu Jin, who had been silent the whole time: "He disappeared."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xiaoyu and Su Bei looked at him at the same time. The difference was that Zhao Xiaoyu was shocked and didn't understand why Wu Jin would tell the news directly. Su Bei, on the other hand, frowned and looked serious.

"How did he disappear?" Su Bei felt more and more uneasy, "When did it start?"

"It disappeared as soon as I came in." Wu Jin's words were brief but he knew everything. "But this is at school, so I'm not worried."

This clearly showed that there was a problem. Su Bei, from a God's perspective, immediately noticed the abnormality.

But Si Zhaohua and the others did nothing wrong. In the eyes of ordinary students, the Academy of Supernatural Powers is very safe and nothing can happen. They are in the space, and if they want to go out and report the situation, they can only choose to withdraw from the competition. Under the premise that Zhao Xiaoyu and Wu Jin are unwilling to withdraw from the competition, naturally no one will report it in the first place.

"...Okay, I got it, thank you." After a moment of silence, Su Bei nodded with a serious face, and then reminded them in return, "Don't go in that direction."

In that direction, Zhao Xiaoyu and Wu Jin were fine, with the pointer just slightly deviating to the left, but the people following them were almost all significantly deviating to the right, almost reaching the end.

If Zhao Xiaoyu didn't deliberately trick them, then there must be a major crisis in that direction.

The reason why he didn't mention it before was of course because he didn't have such good intentions. But since Wu Jin helped him, he naturally couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

Hearing his words, Zhao Xiaoyu and the other person were stunned for a moment, just like everyone who heard Su Bei's reminder for the first time. Then Zhao Xiaoyu was the first to react and said decisively: "Thank you for your reminder, do you think we can go in this direction?"

She had no doubt that Su Bei was talking nonsense. The smart ones guessed that Su Bei's ability must be related to fate, and what he said was probably based on facts. Besides, they had just helped him, so there was no reason for him to repay kindness with hatred.

"Can."

Although this position is average, at least the pointer is in the middle.

After leaving with a group of people, Zhao Xiaoyu asked Wu Jin in confusion: "Did you take the initiative to tell Su Bei the intelligence just now in order to make friends with him?"

She didn't mean to blame Wu Jin, after all, she also benefited from this matter. And seeing Su Bei's reaction, Zhao Xiaoyu realized that her decision just now was a bit wrong.

It is certainly possible to trade with Northern Jiangsu, but it would be better to benefit from it like this.

So she was just curious about why Wu Jin, who was usually taciturn, took the initiative to speak. She suspected that she did not see through his character.

However, Wu Jin just shook his head and said nothing.

He actually didn't quite know why he had to answer. Maybe he subconsciously felt that the answer to this question was very important to Su Bei.

When Su Bei and Zhao Xiaoyu were talking just now, Mo Xiaotian was busy chatting with others. He returned to Su Bei only after they left.

As soon as he came over, Mo Xiaotian saw Su Bei staring at his watch, not knowing what he was looking at.

He has always been a straightforward person, asking whatever he wants: "Brother Bei, what are you looking at?"

Su Bei stroked the glass cover outside the dial with his thumb, with a puzzled look on his face: "Tell me, has anyone been eliminated now?"

"Of course there is!" Mo Xiaotian scratched his head, not understanding why Su Bei would ask such an obvious question.

However, Su Bei did not intend to answer his doubts, but stood up and said: "Let's go find Jiang Tianming first."

"Okay!" Although Mo Xiaotian didn't understand Su Bei's behavior, the smartest thing about him was that he never rejected the plans of smart people.

After a brief thought, Su Bei knew that something unexpected must have happened in this team competition. If he was just an ordinary student, he might suspect that there was something wrong with the space door, or he might suspect that the school took him away when he heard Feng Lan disappear as soon as he came in.

But he has a God's perspective and knows that this is a comic book world, so it is difficult for him not to associate Feng Lan's disappearance with some conspiracy.

Why didn't someone else disappear, but only Feng Lan?

As everyone knows, the biggest difference between him and others is that he has the ability to predict. Unlike Su Bei, he was already famous for his ability before he entered school.

Others may not have found out about Su Bei's superpowers, but they must know about Feng Lan's superpowers.

Feng Lan had said before that his ability could be used once a month, and the last time he used it was before the start of school. So according to the time, he could now predict the second time.

Su Bei guessed that this was probably the reason why the enemy took him away.

But what is the purpose of the enemy taking it away?

If it was just for the chance to obtain Feng Lan's prediction this month, then Su Bei wouldn't worry at all. After all, he would definitely not die, and he would be able to return to the main storyline sooner or later.

But he was afraid that the person behind the scenes took Feng Lan away in order to prevent Feng Lan from giving them any predictions.

In other words, they are plotting something against all students. Feng Lan's ability to predict the future or even solve the conspiracy is possible, so they took Feng Lan away.

To be honest, although I am reluctant to admit it, Su Bei feels that in terms of the plot of the comics, the latter is definitely more attractive and more involved with the protagonist group.

And if it is really the latter, and they are all in the midst of a huge conspiracy, then Su Bei must quickly find a way to save itself.

Yes, it is self-help.

In most cases of hot-blooded youth comics, the important characters will not really die before the end. They have nothing to worry about. No matter how big the difficulties are, everyone can always turn danger into safety and win by the end of the event.

But he is different. When he thought he had successfully been promoted to an important role, Su Bei asked the question of "comic consciousness".

He asked the other party if he now had the aura of an important role and could always turn danger into safety.

However, the answer given by comics consciousness is no. For a character like him who rose from cannon fodder to an important position, at most he will not die easily anymore, but it is impossible for him to have a halo to save his life.

This means that he can't rest easy at all.

The enemy behind him actually captured Feng Lan because of his predictive ability. Once they find out that Su Bei also has the predictive ability, they will definitely not let him go.

Feng Lan may be able to survive under their hands, but I may not be able to.

Therefore, he immediately decided to join the main characters. Jiang Tianming and the others would definitely not be captured easily. If he followed them, even if he would definitely not be safe, he would be a little safer.

Between peace and safety, he still knows which one to choose.

Opening the map panel in the watch, Su Bei's expression suddenly froze: "What's wrong with them?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Mo Xiaotian came over curiously, completely forgetting that he also had a watch.

Seeing the situation on the Subei watch map, he couldn't help but stare wide-eyed: "How can they move so fast!"

After a brief surprise, Su Bei understood: "It seems that he is being hunted. Let's go over and see if we can help."

He was not worried that Jiang Tianming was being hunted by the people who kidnapped Feng Lan. After all, it was only the first day, and even if they wanted to cause trouble, it wouldn't happen so quickly.

Jiang Tianming and his team were moving in the opposite direction of Su Bei and the other two. If it weren't for the map, they would never have met.

They hurried all the way there, and when it was completely dark, Su Bei and the other man finally approached Jiang Tianming's location.

This is because they couldn't have been chased in a straight line, otherwise it would have been several times more difficult for Su Bei and Mo Xiaotian to catch up with them. Mo Xiaotian was exhausted and didn't want to say a word. He leaned on Su Bei and suppressed his breathing.

The dark forest was illuminated only by the faint moonlight. In front of them was a group of students whose faces could not be seen clearly. They were probably taking a rest. The leader kicked the big tree next to him fiercely and said, "Are they rabbits? Why are they running so fast?"

His teammates were exhausted after chasing for a long time. One of them said in embarrassment: "Why don't we just give up? There are only two of them. Even if we kill them, we won't get many points."

“No!” Before the words fell, the one who was kicking the tree refused without hesitation, “That damn Jiang Tianming made me suffer such a big loss in the ring. How can I still save my face if I let him go?”

After hearing this, Su Bei realized who this person was. It should be Jiang Tianming's ring opponent who was only briefly shown in the comics.

In that shot, Jiang Tianming was standing in the back, clenching his fists and cheering, while in the front was a boy with a look of pain on his face, covering his crotch, which was quite funny.

Su Bei didn't watch the ring, but from the flash of the camera, he could tell that this guy had indeed suffered a great loss. It was no wonder that he refused to let Jiang Tianming go after suffering such a devastating blow.
