Chapter 170: Evil Things, Don’t Look Directly at Them!

Chapter 169 [ ]: Large-scale III-level rift! Trapped in a desperate situation!

When Lu Xun arrived at the school, he just heard the school bell ringing.

The last class was over.

It was lunchtime, and the students left the teaching building one after another, walking around the campus in groups, some going to the canteen, and some leaving the school to find food.

"Brother Lu?!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard.

Lu Xun looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a skeleton standing on the steps in front of him with a schoolbag on his back, looking at him in astonishment.

It was Wuer.

It was about to leave the school to take a hot spring bath, but it never expected to run into its deskmate at the school gate.

Wuer had long been accustomed to Lu Xun's frequent skipping of classes, but what surprised and confused it was that after school, why did Brother Lu come to school?

He was not there when there were classes, but appeared after school, just the opposite of everyone else.

"I'm going to the playground." Seeing its questioning expression, Lu Xun coughed and said lightly, "Go and do your own thing, Da Gu, don't worry about me."

"Hey, that's it!" Hearing this, Wu Er showed a look of sudden enlightenment and couldn't help but joked, "I didn't expect that a truant like you would pay attention to the class schedule?"

"Class schedule?"

"Yes, the first class in the afternoon is physical education."

Wu Er said with an expression of "I have seen through everything" and said, "Otherwise why are you going to the playground?"

What a coincidence...

The first class in the afternoon is actually the physical education class of Senior 3 (4). The whole class has to go to the playground for outdoor activities.

Lu Xun was stunned at first.

Then he frowned again.

No, that's not right.

This doesn't seem to be a coincidence.

At 1:30 pm, during the physical education class, his opportunity will appear on the playground.

It turns out that fate has already arranged everything.

The opportunity is arranged by the immortal spirit, but the physical education class is not!

The schedule of Senior 3 (4) class has never changed.

As the fairy Lillian said, the essence of praying is that the fairy god used his authority to "fine-tune" Lu Xun's original fate.

Even if he had not met Lillian and had not prayed, Lu Xun would still have caught up with this physical education class and went to the playground.

But is there any opportunity hidden in the playground? When will the opportunity come? These questions are full of uncertainty, and the answers are not certain.

The essence of praying is actually to manipulate "probability".

Turn the accidental into the inevitable, and turn some events that have a very small probability of occurring only if many preconditions are met into opportunities that can be triggered 100%!

It seems that only a little bit of fine-tuning has been made to fate, but fate is mysterious and unpredictable. Any slight adjustment will trigger a series of chain reactions in the future, just like the principle of leverage, with a tiny force, you can pry your life and change your fate.

Of course, this does not mean that the fairy god is not powerful.

Quite the contrary.

Being able to "fine-tune" fate is the power of the gods, and it is a high-dimensional power that mortals cannot understand at all.

Although Lu Xun cannot possess this power for the time being, he can already borrow power.

Using ritual magic to borrow power from gods and demons in other planes is not new.

But ritual magic basically follows the principle of "equivalent exchange".

Borrowing power requires a price!

The demons are not philanthropists. There are even many evil gods or devils in hell. They are not equal exchanges at all, but nine out of thirteen return.

The little things lent to you, you need to repay ten times or a hundred times the "interest" afterwards.

What is rare is that Lu Xun's "prayer" effect is so awesome, but he does not need to pay any price, and he can get a free prayer opportunity every month.

It can only be said that the fairy god is too kind to his descendants.

After Lu Xun projected the fairy clan, he also received this favor.

Such generous gods are indeed rare.

"Physical education class... Yeah, yes, it seems to be on the schedule." Lu Xun nodded perfunctorily and said to Wu Er, "Go and do your thing."

"Okay." Wu Er scratched his skull and said, "Then I'll go first, Brother Lu, see you on the playground later."

"Yeah."

...

Not long after, Lu Xun came to the school playground again.

He paced and waited patiently.

Time passed by minute by minute.

After a while, the classmates in the class appeared in the playground one after another, laughing and playing.

The physical education teacher also came and was warming up on the side.

"There are a lot of people..."

Lu Xun looked around and couldn't help muttering.

There were so many people and eyes. If the movement of the opportunity was too loud, his abnormal behavior would most likely be discovered and could not be hidden from the eyes of so many people.

If it really didn't work at that time, he could only modify the memory of everyone on the playground with the truth and nightmare.

Dinglingling~

While thinking, the class bell rang.

All the students in Grade 3 (4) gathered and lined up, and did a 15-minute physical exercise under the arrangement of the physical education teacher.

Then the teacher announced the dismissal, and the students were free to do whatever they wanted as long as they did not leave the stadium.

The boys and girls dispersed.

Some went to play basketball and badminton, and some went to the shade of the trees to cool off.

Wuer quietly hid in a corner and played games.

Weier was wearing headphones, sitting on the steps and looking into the distance. Her beautiful face was as calm as ever; her emerald green eyes were cold and noble, her silver hair was like snow, and her long pointed elf ears were from Half of her hair was exposed, and even the No. 1 Middle School uniform couldn't hide her beauty.

It has been almost two months since Wei'er transferred to Jinghai No. 1 Middle School, but she is still often alone on campus, unable to integrate into the small group of girls in the class, and she still has few friends.

On the one hand, as an elf, she has a cold aura, coupled with her flawless appearance and distinguished status as an international student, she will give others an extremely strong sense of distance. Make girls feel ashamed and make boys afraid to approach.

On the other hand, she likes to be quiet and alone, and is very lack of initiative in interpersonal communication.

Looking at the entire No. 1 Middle School, Lu Xun and Wu Er, who were sitting in the front row of her, would interact with her.

Of course, Lu Xun rarely gets along with his classmates now.

Because there is no need for that.

Since embarking on the road of evolution, he no longer has the heart to spend energy and time on these boring campus daily routines.

The identity of a student is just a disguise for him.

"Lao Lu, come play ball, we are short of one person." A boy ran two steps towards this side, then waved and shouted.

Lu Xun waved his hand and said, "No, let's play."

"Tsk, tsk, you have become aloof. You are worthy of being a master of appraisal." The classmate curled his lips and complained helplessly, "Since you appeared on TV, it feels like you and we are no longer in the same world. To be honest, my parents told me last night to find more opportunities to get along with you and build a good relationship with you, saying that these connections will be good for my future. Many classmates in the class were also told by their parents like me. Pass."

"Originally, we were all classmates and old acquaintances. Although we were all surprised that you became famous, our feelings were not very strong at first. It wasn't until last night that I realized that even in the eyes of many elite parents, you are already a celebrity. You are a big shot... I feel a lot of pressure when talking to you now. Just standing in front of you makes me feel uncomfortable. When I think of the seriousness and caution with which my parents mentioned you, I can no longer be as calm as before. "

"Although I am a little disgusted with the 'mission' given to me by my parents, in terms of identity and social status, you are indeed no longer on the same level as us. This is a reality that must be accepted."

This is a person with a straightforward personality.

In fact, there was no need for him to say it. Lu Xun already knew this through mind reading yesterday.

Not only the students, but also the teachers could no longer face Lu Xun with the same mentality as before.

When a peer you are familiar with suddenly rises to a level that requires you to work hard to look up, its dazzling light will make everyone around you unable to adapt.

Although for Lu Xun, this identity is just a mask to hide his true face. The so-called "Master of Appraisal" is not even the tip of his iceberg. The edge he displays may only be one thousandth. , but for the vast majority of human beings, Lu Xun's mask is already the unreachable pinnacle of life in their minds.

Obviously, Lu Xun had dealt a huge blow to his classmates.

They are all children of the elite, a small group of only 3% of the "superiors" in Jinghaicheng. Each one of them has a bright future that the common people are extremely envious of.

However, as their peer, as a commoner orphan whose parents both died, and as the only poor student in a noble school, Lu Xun easily shattered everyone's pride and trampled all these superiors under their feet.

In the past, his academic performance ranked first in his grade for six consecutive semesters. Although he was also very good, not many people took him seriously.

No matter how good your academic performance is as a student, you may not be able to achieve much after graduation, or even find a good job.

The children of the elite are different. They have connections and resources, and many of their elders are either rich or noble.

Even if you fail the college entrance examination, you can still go back and inherit the family property.

In the end, it is very likely that after unremitting efforts and struggle, Lu Xun, a top student, finally defeated his competitors one after another and squeezed into a large company, and then discovered that the boss of the company was actually the crane from his previous class. A scumbag...

Therefore, the students really didn't feel any distance because of Lu Xun's good grades before.

Because it seems that Lu Xun is better than them, has better academic performance than them, and puts everyone below them... but it's actually the opposite.

He can only study hard, try his best to narrow the gap in birth conditions between himself and his classmates, and strive to catch up with others.

But it's different now.

Lu Xun went on TV and the identity of the genius appraiser was exposed.

A foreign assignment, a daily salary of eight figures.

This can no longer be described as excellent.

This is called "Shine"!

Just like a humble beggar, he suddenly became a king.

Even among the 3% of elites in Jinghaicheng, Lu Xun's achievements belong to the very few super elites who are top-notch.

This subverted the perceptions of all teachers and students.

The key is, he is only 18 years old.

The sense of superiority, pride, and self-confidence of his peers... were all ruthlessly crushed by him.

After a day, everyone has gradually accepted this fact, but they still can't get used to Lu Xun's change in identity, so they feel so awkward and uncomfortable when getting along with him.

"The stupid bird will fly first. Don't underestimate your future. Maybe you will go further than me?"

Lu Xun shrugged his shoulders and said casually.

"Put it down... Don't comfort me. We don't know if we can jump out of the small pool of Jinghai City in this life. And for a super genius like you, even if you go to the four six-level self-circulating cities, there are countless big companies Grab it!"

"We can't even use you as a role model and target, because you are so outrageous that there is no way to learn from and replicate your success."

The boy smiled bitterly, then picked up the basketball and waved his hand: "I won't disturb you anymore, Lao Lu."

After that, he went back to the court to play ball.

Lu Xun's expression remained as usual, and his heart did not fluctuate at all because of this episode.

His horizons have become extremely broad.

The things he pursues are no longer worldly things like money and fame.

No matter how many extraneous things he has at his fingertips, he can no longer gain the slightest sense of accomplishment.

What he wants is infinite evolution in the level of life!

What he pursues is supreme personal power!

Jinghai City is very small, the League of People is also small, and even the planet beneath our feet seems too small compared to the world.

If possible, Lu Xun would like to take a look at the vast universe and galaxies.

In fact, after reaching the Holy King level, living creatures can already leave the planet and travel in space.

But an accident occurred thousands of years ago, and the starry sky became a restricted area for life, and even myths could not escape.

Lu Xun didn't want to be restricted. Sooner or later, he would break through all the shackles and obstacles and head to the sea of ​​stars.

Click, click, click...

The hands are moving and time is passing slowly.

Finally, at 1:29:30 pm.

Lu Xun suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head suddenly to look somewhere in the southwest of the playground, with a breathtaking light blooming in his eyes.

"come yet?"

Buzz! !

Suddenly, when the countdown was 15 seconds, a strong sense of crisis burst out of his mind.

The crisis sensor of "Tiangan" was actually triggered.

And every second that passes, the intensity of the crisis will increase by one point, and soon it will reach a "fatal" level.

Of course, the fatal crisis was not directed at Lu Xun.

But other people on the playground!

'what's the situation? Isn't it a chance? How could a crisis arise? ’

Lu Xun was slightly startled.

This was different from what he expected.

He thought that when the time came, a treasure would fall from the sky with a clang, and then he would collect it and be done with it.

But judging from the current situation, opportunities and risks coexist!

This risk posed almost no threat to himself and could be ignored.

After all, he is the Holy King of Fighting with invincible power under the Emperor.

It means there are only opportunities and no risks.

However, according to the crisis sensing judgment, everyone on the playground will be involved. All teachers and students in Class 3 (4) of senior high school do not have the ability to resist risks.

This crisis is even fatal to the two magicians Ur and Weier!

But now, Lu Xun had no time to move everyone away.

'I didn't expect outsiders to be involved...forget it, let's improvise. According to my judgment, I can easily resolve this crisis and it is nothing to worry about. ’

He puts aside distracting thoughts, concentrates, and is always ready to deal with any changes.

3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second...

Buzz! !

When the countdown reaches zero and the time reaches one-thirty, a sudden change occurs!

Within a radius of 500 meters, the space of the entire stadium suddenly became distorted. Centered on the playground where Lu Xun was located, the void began to collapse piece by piece, radiating and spreading outwards at a rapid rate.

The world is like a broken mirror, with countless fragments surrounding a single figure, converging towards the center, forming a huge space vortex.

In just the blink of an eye, all creatures within a radius of 500 meters were sucked in by the vortex and swallowed up.

Then the vortex disappeared.

The mutation lasted less than 1 second from its occurrence to its end.

The clouds cleared and the rain cleared, the wind was gentle and the sun was shining, everything returned to calm and peaceful.

The stadium is still the same stadium, undamaged.

It's like a dream.

However, this large area was empty.

Everyone disappeared.

Everything happened so fast.

The students evaporated before they even had time to scream.

The basketball was even bouncing on the ground, but there was no one on the court, which was extremely weird!

They were collectively teleported away by unknown forces.

Only a minute passed after it happened.

Boom!

On the horizon, sonic explosions rang out, and several tall and cool individual mechas pierced the sky and arrived here with a bang.

laugh!

The visor of a sky-blue mighty mecha opened, revealing a beautiful woman's face, with eyebrows as bright as blue and a heroic spirit.

Astonishingly, it was Shi Yanxin, the captain of the inner guard.

"Is the induction coming from here?" She immediately turned around and asked a team member, "Are you sure it's the fluctuation of a 'large' rift?"

"Yes, Captain."

The team member used a robotic arm to hold up a sensor and measured it again. Then he pointed to a playground in the southwest of the stadium and said firmly:

"The entrance to the rift is right here. Judging from the intensity of the fluctuations in space and time, this is at least a large level III rift world."

When Shi Yanxin heard this, she immediately showed a surprised expression.

When each self-circulating city of the Human Union was first built, the site selection was very particular.

Since the development of the self-circulating city is too dependent on the crack resources, it is often chosen to build the city in a place with a high probability of cracks.

And science and technology can be used to increase this probability and increase the density of cracks... Well, the principle is similar to the "nesting" of fishermen.

After all, cracks are not static conventional alien spaces.

They will swim and flash around the world like fish, and the stay time will not be very long. They may just appear for a few minutes, and then teleport to 100,000 miles away in the next moment. The activities are very frequent.

Only by "catching" the crack can we use technology and hard work to fix it in the same place, and then develop the resources in the crack world.

There are large and small cracks. The larger the crack, the richer the resources, and the easier it is to produce rare resources and precious materials.

The level of the crack is divided into six levels from low to high: small, medium, large, giant, super giant, and alien world. The cracks at each level are specifically divided into five levels: Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, and Ⅴ.

Since its initial construction, Jinghai City has developed in this place for more than 400 years, but only 14 rifts have been collected so far.

Among them, the resources of 10 have been fully developed.

Only 4 are still producing.

Among them, there is only one "large" rift, and the resources are almost exhausted.

It is conceivable that a "large level III" rift was born in Jinghai No. 1 Middle School. This is exciting news.

Jinghai City has developed to a level 2 self-circulating city, which is almost reaching its limit and its potential has been exhausted.

But if you are lucky and have a few more such large rifts, you will have a chance to sprint to the rating of a level 3 self-circulating city in the future!

Once it reaches the level 3 self-circulating city, the remaining 97% of civilians in Jinghai City will all be able to live the life of ordinary elites, and the elite system will be abolished.

Rifts mean a huge amount of resources.

But there are not many races and countries in the world that have the ability to fully develop rifts.

Other races do not have such a powerful super industrial system as humans.

"Captain, I've counted, a total of 67 people have been swallowed by the rift, basically all students of No. 1 Middle School, and a few faculty members."

The internal security team reported in a deep voice: "The rift has closed, we can't get in for the time being, and they are unlikely to survive."

Hearing this, Shi Yanxin's smile faded, and a heavy look appeared on her face.

Although "catching" the rift is a good thing, it is a disaster for people who are suddenly caught in it.

This is still a large rift, which is very dangerous.

The rift has closed and will not open again in a short time.

This means that people outside cannot rescue them and can only let them fend for themselves.

...Even the most elite pioneering team in Jinghai City may not be able to conquer a large rift within a week.

What's more, these powerless high school students?

They are lucky to survive in it for an hour.

The chance of survival is very slim.

A bunch of unlucky and poor kids...

"Well, let's contain the rift first, don't let it run away." She couldn't help but sighed and said, "As for these victims... we can only accept our fate."

"There are two foreign students in this class, captain, take a look." The subordinate passed the information to Shi Yanxin and said, "One is from the Undead Clan, with high-level strength, and the other is from the Elf Clan, at the top of the special level."

"Huh? It's her..." Shi Yanxin was stunned when she saw Wei'er's photo.

She asked Wei'er for the contact information of "Zhan Feng", so she naturally knew this elf.

I didn't expect that there was an acquaintance among the victims!

"Large rifts must be conquered by force at the Saint King level." She pondered, "But the chances of survival of these two students are indeed much greater than others. I hope they can hold on and persist until rescue arrives."

Once swallowed by the rift, there are only two ways to survive.

One is to "pass the level", violently conquer the rift, the entrance will be permanently open, the internal environment will be stable, you can enter and exit at any time, and even the rift will no longer be dangerous.

The second way is to rely on fate!

Even if the rift is not conquered, its entrance will be opened indirectly like breathing.

If you are lucky, it may open automatically after ten minutes, and you can get out alive as long as you survive.

Of course, if you are unlucky, it may not open once in three months.

If it is the latter case, the 67 people inside must be dead!

Even Ur and Wei'er, don't think about living.

Because the unconquered rift is full of violence and chaos, time and space are disordered, and the rules are unbalanced.

There is no so-called safe place at all.

And the only way to conquer the rift is to find the source of the chaos and end it!

Obviously, although Ur and Wei'er have some strength, they have not even reached the lord level.

They can't even protect themselves, let alone protect others.
