Volume 4: No One Survives in Fantasy High School Chapter 28 Eight Wise Men Head to the Square
The atmosphere in the following team seemed a little heavy.
It can’t be said to be particularly heavy, but there is always an inexplicable delay, as if something is blocked on the other side.
Although they still talked and laughed, a sense of alienation and separation had already formed. The admiration for Li Lin was no longer the fanatical and morbid player they were at the beginning, but polite and at a distance, just like treating a stranger with good intentions normally.
Perhaps they have realized something, or simply have become a little wary of Li Lin's existence. But no matter what, a barrier has indeed appeared. A vague, invisible barrier has been opened between the group of people. Perhaps this barrier existed from the beginning, but the indifference to death has made this barrier seem to disappear. After all, the biggest thing is death. If death is not scary, then there is naturally no barrier.
But now the shadow of death seemed to appear over everyone's head again, and they seemed to be able to vaguely see the shadow of the sickle above each other's head.
This caused the originally close-knit team to split up. A few good friends formed a small team and chose to help each other, while others who were alone or not good at communication had a little distance. Although they still looked like they were joking, when the real problems emerged, many people became sincere.
Even the so-called justice camp is not immune to vulgarity. After all, the justice camp only claims to be just.
In other words, as long as their collective hypnosis is removed, they are still just a group of ordinary people.
Have your own ideas, closeness and distance, and your own values.
"…It looks like the team is a bit scattered."
The leader of the soldiers who was supposed to be in the middle walked to Li Lin's side and looked at him with a wry smile.
"We didn't think about that much originally, but how should I put it? Ever since you said that, I can't stop thinking about those things. Those seals and monsters seem to be just like us... Will we be like this in the future?"
"I don't know. That's your future."
“That’s true…”
Li Lin chatted with the leader casually and continued walking along the cobblestone road towards the library.
Originally, Li Lin wanted to bypass Duke's guard and go through another path. But the red-haired warrior claimed that the square was safe, so he led his men to the square. However, after bypassing the wall and seeing the scenery on the square, he stayed where he was.
Because the figure wielding the giant sword was chopping meat and making soup in the square.
"Blood Giant... It's Blood Giant Duke ..."
The soldier said in surprise as he looked at the figure chopping something with a kitchen knife in the square full of corpses.
" He should usually hunt down other evil spirits inside the campus. Why is he cutting meat in the square at this time?! Oh no, he is ready to escape now--"
"It's you! It's you again! I was planning to make chop suey soup to apologize to the adults! It's all ruined! I'm going to kill you!"
Big-headed Duke, who was chopping meat in the square, seemed to smell something as soon as the red-haired warrior finished speaking. He turned his head and looked at the young people who were surrounded by the aura of justice and were out of tune with the surrounding style. His overly large eyeballs revealed a terrifying light, and he let out a deafening roar.
Big-headed Duke really lived up to his nickname of the blood giant in the justice camp, roaring like a bloodstained mad dog and rushing over with a big knife in hand. In just a blink of an eye, he rushed to the center of the square and was about to rush in front of them.
The other students were immediately horrified and ran back screaming. Some students wanted to attack. The formation was torn apart in an instant, and the shooting vision and attack angle were blocked by the shaking heads of their own people. One group of people cursed these former companions, while another group of people just wanted to escape. As long as the team is not united, such a thing is almost inevitable. While these so-called elites were in chaos, Duke had already rushed in front of them with a roar, holding the butcher knife high in his hand.
Then in the next moment, Duke changed his knife to his hands and grabbed a female student who was standing there in shock. He immediately crushed her into a ball of pulp as she screamed. Although the giant was huge, his skills were not clumsy at all. Just like a trained person can easily catch a fly, this was not a problem for the giant.
"Just treat it as an observation experiment..."
Looking at the blood giant with red eyes, roaring and waving his sword, Li Lin estimated that this group of carefree students were going to be wiped out. He could only sigh and stand on the hillside, drawing his bow and arrow.
The golden bow suddenly ignited with brilliant golden light, and countless black air swirled around the holy light. When he released his fingers, the brilliant arrow light was like a meteor, instantly pouring into Duke's head in the surprised and expectant eyes of everyone, and a voice that he was very familiar with exploded in his mind.
"These people are my subjects of observation. When the time comes, you should act more realistically so that I can take them out."
“……?!”
Oh shit, is it the adults who have come in person?
When Big Head Duke heard this, he knew what was going on and started to act out his acting skills.
Although it was just a large firework, Duke seemed to be struck by lightning. He covered his head, howled in pain, and rolled on the square.
And I don't know if it's Duke's special ability or what. Although there are no follow-up special effects, there are layers of burnt black air swirling around his huge head, which looks extremely convincing when combined with the arrow light.
When the others saw this, they were overjoyed and wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack, but Li Lin said directly from behind that the blood giant was not seriously injured at all. In fact, the blood giant was fully powerful. He just shook his eyes, which immediately made these students, whose courage had been scared away, shrink back. They all ran across the square in a panic, bypassed the boss area directly, and arrived at the hillside behind the square.
After counting the number of people, it was a blessing in disguise that no one was left behind during the escape, only one girl died during the battle.
“…Let’s go.”
Patting the soldier on the shoulder, Li Lin's expression was calm.
“Anything is possible here.”
"Yeah...anything is possible. This is a nightmare world after all."
The red-haired warrior sighed.
There are now only eight people left of the nine people who came out of the jungle.
