248 Divine Light Power, Something’s Wrong With Jiang Shangbai (1)
In the abandoned city, Song Qingge fired two signal flares in a row to inform the surrounding new students of Demon City University.
They had previously agreed that if there was a signal flare, the two-man team nearby would go and provide support.
However, the two consecutive signal flares represented an extremely urgent situation. They had to stop everything they had going on and rush to support.
Soon, the remaining four teams of Demon City University quickly rushed over.
Looking at Song Qingge in front of him, Lu Yan, and the others beside him, the expressions of the participating new students of Demon City University became nervous.
They thought that the danger came from Lu Yan and the others and attacked.
Seeing this, Song Qingge hurriedly explained to the students who had rushed over.
“Fang Chengqian was killed?!”
“The teleportation scroll has lost its effect? Could someone be plotting behind the scenes?”
The new students of Demon City University were all shocked when they heard Song Qingge’s words.
A participating new student of Demon City University tore open his teleportation scroll. After the light enveloped him, he was still in place.
This instantly made the expressions of the other participating new students of Demon City University become solemn.
Now that the teleportation scroll failed, they had basically lost their greatest psychological support. If anything happened, they could only face it head-on.
“What should we do now? If it’s really as we guessed, and someone is really planning the entire thing behind the scenes and the target is us, isn’t our situation very dangerous?”
A participating new student of Demon City University said in panic.
“For now, we can only gather more participating new students to discuss countermeasures,” Song Qingge said.
Then, Song Qingge pointed at Lu Yan and said, “Lu Yan will command the team first. We’ll gather with the remaining new students of the Golden Corner Academy first before we see what to do.”
Hearing Song Qingge’s words, the few Demon City universities hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Song Qingge was their leader to begin with. Coupled with Lu Yan’s previous performance, they did not have much resistance to listening to Lu Yan’s orders.
The group quickly headed to the place they had agreed to meet Bai Miao and the others.
After gathering, Lu Yan told Bai Miao and the others about the matter. The expressions of Bai Miao and the others also became solemn.
“If that’s really the case, our main goal now is to escape from the abandoned city.” Bai Miao looked at Lu Yan and said.
Song Qingge nodded. “That’s right. The teleportation scroll has failed. Coupled with the black fog in the sky, the situation has already become very complicated. The best thing to do now is to leave Abandoned City first.”
Everyone’s gazes landed on Lu Yan, waiting for his decision.
At this moment, with his undead and his own combat strength, Lu Yan had absolute say. Everyone had to consider Lu Yan’s thoughts.
Lu Yan looked up at the black fog in the sky above Abandoned City and frowned.
“Judging from the current situation, the other party has spread the black fog in the sky. He’s clearly prepared. It’s probably too late for us to leave Abandoned City now.
“After all, we can’t even get out of the abandoned city now.”
If the other party’s target was really them, the participating new students, the other party would definitely not let them escape easily.
Even if they wanted to leave the Abandoned City, it was probably not feasible for them to escape by traveling away from Abandoned City.
When Song Qingge and the others heard Lu Yan’s words, their expressions also became ugly.
This was indeed possible. If the target behind the scenes was really after them, they probably would not be able to escape.
Lu Yan continued, “Moreover, have you discovered that the current Abandoned City has only cut off the teleportation scroll? We haven’t encountered any danger yet. If it were a foreign race or an enemy country targeting us, we would probably have long been attacked. The other party won’t give us a chance to meet up easily.”
Previously, Lu Yan and Song Qingge had said that they would gather first because they wanted to prove their guess.
After all, if someone was really targeting them from behind, they would definitely not want them to gather. Wasn’t it better to take advantage of the fact that they were separated and defeat them one by one?
Song Qingge frowned. “Lu Yan, what do you mean?”
Lu Yan said softly, “Everyone knows the history of the Abandoned City, right? Maybe there’s a possibility that this matter is related to the dark-born who stayed in this city previously?”
Hearing Lu Yan’s words, the expressions of the surrounding people suddenly changed.
“Dark-born?”
Previously, they did not know much about the dark-born. However, after an explanation from the teacher in charge, they had a rough understanding of the dark-born.
This was a warlike foreign race, or rather, a warlike foreign race alliance.
A hundred years ago, when the Void Gate opened, dark-borns could basically always be seen in the battles between humans and foreign races. It could be said that they were the foreign races that fought humans the most.
If the failure of the teleportation scroll was related to the dark-born, it would mean that this matter was a lot more complicated.
Lu Yan pointed at the black fog in the sky and said, “From this black fog, I can sense very dense dark-type power. Dark-borns are best at dark-type power.”
The surrounding people fell silent. Liu Hu said in a low voice, “Then what should we do now? Why don’t we try to rush out of the abandoned city? It’s naturally best if we can successfully get out. Dark-borns are not something we can face now.”
