In a short while, the number of black dogs increased.
At the end of the field of vision, the corridor was filled with chaotic black shadows.
Assistant Rosa also noticed this and realized that it would be a burden to follow the large group. She decided to take one person and be more agile.
Her decision was resolute. She grabbed the girl nad "Rena" and shouted loudly to Su'en, "Mr. Guide, let's split up and please make sure to lead the students to a safe place!"
Without waiting for Su'en's response, she didn't look back and took the girl into the darkness.
The group of chasing black dogs completely ignored the other students hiding against the wall and chased after them.
Su'en knew very well that he had no way to deal with those black dog monsters. Even if he knew that Rosa and the girl student running down there were in danger, he had no hesitation.
"Let's go!"
The underground cave was not a good place to stay. Su'en gave a light command and planned to lead the students out first.
Now that there was no ntor, if these young nobles died here, not only would Su'en himself be in trouble, but the "Cross Society" would also be retaliated against by the influential figures in the inner city.
Upon hearing this, the frightened students had no objections and hurriedly followed Su'en back to the corridor they ca from.
After walking for a while, they didn't encounter any trouble.
The few black dog monsters they encountered didn't pay any attention to them and continued chasing after Rosa and the girl.
Everyone could now be sure that all the abnormalities in this trial were because soone wanted to kill "Rena".
Originally, it was just an ordinary trial where they might encounter so small crises, but it would pass.
But unexpectedly, so many accidents happened.
The missing Kom was probably in great danger, ntor Auguste never showed up, Assistant Daniel didn't return, and now even Assistant Rosa had fled deeper... and Rena.
.......
Su'en found a route leading to the surface and they continued on.
The monsters around them beca sparser, and the people finally saw hope of survival.
After running for a while, they were close to the surface and the environnt was already safe enough. So people were exhausted, so they stopped to rest in an open area.
With no intimidating monsters around, the thoughts of the people returned to normal.
At this mont, soone weakly asked, "Will Teacher Rosa and Rena... be okay?"
As soon as this question was asked, the atmosphere beca unusually quiet.
In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that they couldn't do anything to those black dog monsters even with so many people. How could two people possibly kill the monsters?
The best hope was for them to escape...
But Su'en knew the habits of those monsters. If Rosa escaped alone, she might survive; but if she took "Rena" with her, both of them would be in great danger.
However, at this mont, an inappropriate voice appeared.
It was Jack who stood up, with a serious expression on his face, and said, "No, we can't just give up on Teacher Rosa and Rena... and Kom! We have to go save them!"
As soon as he said this, soone imdiately expressed opposition, saying, "But those monsters are not sothing we can deal with. All we can do is go to the surface and inform the academy. They should send rescue soon."
"No!"
Jack insisted on going down, his tone resolute. "We must do sothing. Waiting for rescue is not an option!"
"I think it's better if we don't go..."
"Yeah, going won't change anything."
"I won't go anyway. If you want to go, go ahead, don't morally pressure ."
"..."
Suddenly, an internal conflict broke out. Su'en watched this group of arrogant little lions quarreling and thinking about sothing else.
He also noticed that Jack had always been attentive to that "Rena" along the way, probably pursuing her.
It seed like a plot where soone bravely risked their life for their loved one.
Originally, it was sowhat admirable.
But suddenly, the plot took a turn.
Jack didn't dare to go alone and wanted to invite companions. After calling for a while, no one responded, and he beca angry. He probably wanted to use provocation and no longer spoke politely, saying, "Hmph, you cowards! Our most respected teacher and our classmates we spend ti with are in danger!"
His words were harsh and tore off the facade.
Soone also stood up and revealed the truth.
"Jack, aren't you a coward? Haha... Don't think we don't know why you've been trying so hard to get close to Rena. Isn't it for her family's assets? Now if sothing happens to her, you and your family's only reliance will be gone. You selfish person, you want us to follow you to our deaths, impossible!"
"Normally, we didn't expose you when we saw through your intentions towards our classmates, but now you're stepping on our faces? The second-class citizens are desperately trying to climb up the social ladder, thinking we don't know about your petty thoughts?"
"That's right! We didn't see you bravely rushing down earlier. Now that you're thinking about how it might affect your family, you regret it and want us to go die with you?"
"..."
The students beca more and more impolite in their words, hitting where it hurt.
The conflicts between the upper class and the lower class seed to have no difference, exposing weaknesses and adding salt to the wound.
Su'en, who was watching this drama unfold silently, suddenly didn't expect the fire to burn onto himself.Jack looked around and found no one willing to accompany him, so he turned his gaze to Su'en, the only person on the scene he could suppress with his status.
Without a second thought, he commanded, "You, I order you to co with to save people!"
Hearing this arrogant tone, Su'en glanced at him, not arguing, and said indifferently, "My task is to get you all out."
Charlie, the fat man who had been silent all along, also stepped in to diate, "Jack, don't go too far. The guide's task is to get us all out. You can't sacrifice everyone's safety for your selfish goals!"
"Hmph!"
Jack's face turned red with anger, and his gentlemanly deanor was nowhere to be seen.
Ignoring Charlie, he stared at Su'en and threatened, "You, a lowly outsider, dare to refuse my command? Let tell you, if anything happens to Miss Rena, you won't live to tell the tale! Not just you, but the forces behind you as well. I guarantee that the Reiss family of Miss Rena, my Edward family will definitely pursue it to the end!"
Hearing him ntion the "Reiss family", Charlie's face froze.
Su'en, however, remained expressionless throughout.
A death threat?
Tsk tsk...
This guy really threw his sense of superiority as an inner city resident onto his own face.
At that mont, a thought flashed through his mind. Without finding any more reasons to refuse, he stood up and said, "If no one else has any objections, I can accompany you..."
Hearing Su'en "submit", everyone thought he was intimidated by Jack's words. It was only natural to think so. An outer city gang mber, whose status was even lower than that of a slave in the inner city's major families, how could he dare to defy?
No one spoke up, and the students seed unwilling to speak up for an outsider.
Charlie wanted to say sothing, but swallowed his words, sighing deeply.
After all, while one Jack was insignificant, almost everyone in the class was not afraid of him.
But if they were known to have obstructed the "rescue Rena" operation, and sothing really happened, causing the upper echelons of the Reiss family to be furious, that would be a real disaster.
No one could bear it.
Seeing no one speak, Jack sneered, "No need to ask these cowards, you co with to save people!"
Upon hearing this, Su'en stood up expressionlessly and accompanied this young master back into the depths of the cave.
......
Soon, the two arrived at the fork in the road where they had separated from the female assistant.
This place was remote enough, the quiet underground space, even their breathing could be clearly heard.
Su'en thought, probably no one would hear the gunshot.
Jack had been walking behind him all the ti, seemingly on guard against him.
Little did he know that Su'en had already had the intention to kill.
Just then, a strange noise ca from the depths of the cave, and human instinct would be attracted to such a mont.
Su'en, who had been prepared, quickly drew his gun and decisively pulled the trigger.
Without any warning, the gunshot did not deviate at all.
With a "bang", a bullet hit Jack right between the eyebrows, and he died with his eyes wide open.
Su'en put away his gun, looked at the corpse, and said indifferently, "I hate being threatened more than I hate causing trouble."
People from the inner city can't be killed?
Ha...
There's no such word in Su'en's dictionary.
Following you was just a convenient excuse to break away from the group.
