Chapter 1548 Trouble Begins
In Lin Qiye’s soul control, students and teachers at Beijing University quickly and orderly evacuated to civil defense facilities, while Chen Han took Xu Liao to mobilize manpower from the Beijing Night Watchmen headquarters to set up [No Restriction Airspace] around the university.
After completing all this, Lin Qiye waved his hand, and several summoning formations bloomed on the ground. Thunder Beast, Gray Sparrow, Snow Woman, Wangcai and other “Klein” level caretakers were summoned by him, rushing toward different directions of Beijing University.
After a moment’s hesitation, Lin Qiye also summoned Azhu and asked him to warn Li Yifei to hide. Li Yifei’s strength wasn’t great, and if he directly encountered a Mi-Go, he would have almost no chance of winning.
“Laifa, guard Qingyu well. Don’t let any Mi-Go touch him, understand?”
Lin Qiye held [Zhan Bai] in his hand and solemnly instructed the Thunder Beast Laifa, who was surrounded by electric arcs and meowed once in response.
“Jiang Er, you stay here too. If anything unexpected happens, contact me immediately.”
“Okay!” Jiang Er nodded firmly.
After settling the students, teachers, and An Qingyu, Lin Qiye’s figure transformed into a shadow and disappeared from the spot.
Meanwhile, inside the tent controlling the stage.
“Junior Cao Yuan… what’s happening outside?” Lu Menglei took off her noise-canceling headphones and asked in confusion.
Cao Yuan’s expression was extremely grave. He had already heard Lin Qiye’s words through the communication device and immediately led Lu Menglei out of the tent to An Qingyu and the others.
“Senior, from now on, stay here. No matter what happens, don’t leave them, understand?”
Cao Yuan’s expression was extremely serious.
The vast majority of Beijing University’s faculty and students had already been controlled by Lin Qiye and evacuated to underground and other civil defense projects. It was too late to send Lu Menglei there now, and with the Thunder Beast’s protection, An Qingyu and Jiang Er’s side was relatively safer than other places.
“…Alright.” Lu Menglei didn’t know what was happening, but she had long sensed that Cao Yuan’s identity was unusual, so naturally she wouldn’t refuse when he spoke.
Cao Yuan and Jiang Er exchanged glances, nodded slightly, and he quickly ran toward another direction.
All sixteen Mi-Go were targeting An Qingyu. If they were all allowed to gather here, even Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan working together couldn’t guarantee An Qingyu’s safety. They had to defeat them one by one as much as possible before all the Mi-Go arrived, to reduce their numbers!
…
“Have you contacted Instructor Lin?”
Near Beijing University’s gymnasium, several figures were rapidly moving along the road. Li Zhenzhen scanned the empty buildings around and asked.
“Yes, we have.” Su Zhe put down his phone. “He told us to retreat.”
“Retreat?”
“Yes, he said we can’t help with this situation and told us to go to the underground shelter to look after those unconscious students.”
“What about the remaining two soul fragments?”
“He said we’ll continue the mission after this blows over…”
Fang Mo pondered thoughtfully.
Their squad had originally been catching the remaining three soul fragments in the gymnasium. They had just caught one and were about to send it to classroom 609 when they heard Lin Qiye’s strange song coming through the broadcast… then the surrounding students, as if possessed, quickly ran to the nearby underground shelter.
Perhaps because Lin Qiye had no intention of controlling them, they felt nothing unusual after hearing the song except thinking it was a bit unpleasant. Confused, they walked through the empty campus and finally managed to contact Lin Qiye.
“Temporarily controlling so many students and sending them underground for shelter means something terrible is about to descend here,” Su Yuan said solemnly. “Captain, what should we do next?”
Just as Fang Mo was about to say something, a gleam flashed in Lu Baoyou’s eyes, and he suddenly spoke: “Perhaps this is our opportunity to establish merit and achieve a higher-level kill.”
“No!” Fang Mo firmly shook his head. “If Lord Qiye told us to retreat, it must be because he believes the enemy’s strength is beyond our capabilities, with almost no possibility of a higher-level kill… Reckless action might not only cause casualties but also create trouble for Lord Qiye and the others.
We follow orders and go directly to the shelter.”
As Fang Mo was the temporary captain, others naturally wouldn’t contradict him. Even Lu Baoyou, who usually liked to oppose him, didn’t say anything more this time and quickly ran toward the nearby shelter.
“Where is everyone? Where did everyone go?”
Just as they were about to leave, a window suddenly opened in a nearby dormitory building. A bare-chested male student holding a towel was looking around in confusion through the window, with water droplets still hanging from his hair.
“What’s going on? I just took a shower, and everyone’s gone… Hey, don’t scare me like this!”
His panicked calls echoed on the desolate road. In the distance, Fang Mo suddenly stopped and looked back, his ears twitching slightly as if catching something.
“What’s wrong?” Su Zhe asked in confusion.
“There’s still someone in the dormitory! He must have been in the bathroom showering when Lord Qiye was singing… so he was left behind.”
“What should we do?”
Fang Mo barely hesitated before saying, “Go back and get him. Our mission is to take care of these students. We can’t leave him alone here.”
Everyone quickly ran back toward the dormitory building.
The male student standing at the window looked around in confusion. From the corner of his eye, he spotted Fang Mo and the others running toward him, and his eyes lit up:
“Hey! Hey, do you know where everyone…”
BOOM!!
Before he could finish, there was a thunderous explosion from the top floor of the dormitory. The corner of the roof was smashed by something flying at high speed, sending debris and dust flying.
The bare-chested student was startled by this sudden attack and shrank back behind the window. Just as he was cautiously peering out again, a strange creature with tentacled flesh-nodule head and pink body vibrated its membranous wings and slowly flew to the window.
Seeing this bizarre monster, the student was completely terrified. He forgot even to cry out in fear, standing frozen like a stone statue, his pupils violently contracting.
Just as the monster’s flesh-nodule head was about to crawl through the open window, the wall suddenly distorted, transforming into a rock demon with ferocious fangs that bit directly at the Mi-Go’s head, forcefully trapping its body in mid-air!
BANG!
The window of the adjacent dormitory shattered. A shadow, nimble as a white cat, instantly passed through the corridor to appear behind the student, hoisted him onto a shoulder, and turned to run toward the window on the other side. With a light tap of the foot, they leaped down from the fifth floor.
