Chapter 859: Chapter 859: A Chance Encounter
Inside the spaceship.
Ji You chose the sniper point.
Then.
Sheng Qingyan didn’t say a word, he shuffled his feet, adopting his usual lazy posture, and lay down next to Ji You at a turret.
After Sheng Qingyan, Xuzhou, Zhang Ye, Lance, and Lou all went to the main control room of the spaceship’s cockpit, taking seats without any instructions, each choosing what they were good at.
Chu Jiaojiao drew her sword.
Yue Qiguang took out a hamr.
Yue Qiyuan slightly closed his eyes, released the Spiritual Silk Network, and sensed the surroundings.
Shen Changqing crouched nearby, silently inspecting everyone’s cha, with the occasional sound of tapping...
...
Upon hearing this news, it was undeniable that the 971 students, including Ji You, couldn’t help but show a trace of panic. The students tried hard to be calm, but their expressions still carried a hint of helplessness.
Carrion Vulture riot?
Such a wide-reaching impact?
It has already spread beyond the first checkpoint and is spreading around...
Is the front line still okay? Can it be held?
This is the first ti in nearly a hundred years that Alliance News Broadcast has used such a solemn tone to continuously broadcast this news for several minutes. They repeatedly asked citizens to evacuate imdiately! Does this an this Star Beast riot is very severe?
...
One question after another erged in the students’ minds, yet no one answered, nor could anyone provide solutions at the mont. These weren’t the questions that frightened them most; what worried them most was—
Is this riot a sign of an impending Beast Tide?
...
This is the students’ first encounter with such an ergency, and no one gave them answers, nor did anyone tell them what to do at the mont. The confusion and fear in their hearts almost overca their entire thinking... But, as Ji You took the lead, Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, and others followed closely behind, a group of helpless students saw this scene and found direction at that mont. They started to occupy corners of the spaceship according to their strengths.
Silence.
Inside the spaceship, aside from the students’ breathing, hardly a human voice could be heard.
In the midst of the silence, Mu Jianling stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the starry sky beside a giant monitor.
second.
seconds.
seconds.
...
After a while.
The standing Mu Jianling stared at the navigation map and said without looking back, "No need to panic, I am here."
Six words.
These simple six words instantly dispelled the students’ anxiety. Imdiately, the students fully imrsed themselves and straightened their backs, preparing for battle at any mont.
Mu Jianling raised his hand and said, "Set sail."
As soon as the propulsion system was activated, the spaceship shot through the clouds in an instant, then broke through the atmosphere at high speed and sailed into the depths of space—
Ji You squinted, half-leaning, not missing anything unusual within sight. But, the luck seed incredibly good this ti; the 3-hour journey passed without any anomalies.
Ji You did not relax his vigilance, not easing up in the least.
Beside him, Sheng Qingyan lay motionless, in the sa position for over 3 hours. He didn’t even blink once until the spaceship entered the jump point.
The spaceship sped steadily, and on the sixth day’s morning, on a sunny day, returned to Lanyue Star. Watching this familiar land, the students showed a hint of excitent in their eyes.
They returned, in such a hurried manner.
The spaceship docked at the Dock, a port built specifically for the Lanyue Star Military Academy and Lanyue Star Agricultural Academy.
At this mont.
Besides their spaceship, another spaceship was docked. Once it steadied, soone strode out from it; Ji You saw and found that it was Aunt Zhang Si.
Ji You, surprised, opened his mouth. Aunt Zhang Si, a teacher from the neighboring Agricultural College, was unsurprising to see here. What made Ji You frown with surprise was what was behind Aunt Zhang Si.
Behind Zhang Si was a group of students wearing Agricultural College uniforms, each holding plants, their shoes stained with thick mud. So had deep cuts in their school uniforms, others had their pants legs torn off, and so were carried out on stretchers...
Seeing this group of students, the Lanyue Star Military Academy students were taken aback:
What happened?
Such a state of distress?
Already unable to tidy their appearance?
...
Mu Jianling crossed his arms, standing aside, and only when Zhang Si walked up did he snort lightly and raised his eyebrows, "Yo, did you just co back from begging?"
Zhang Si: "..."
Mu Jianling suddenly raised his hand, took out a steel coin from the Space Button, and threw it into the pocket seam of a female student behind Zhang Si.
Zhang Si: "..."
Are we being treated as beggars now? Zhang Si looked up at Mu Jianling, not angry, but rather smiling, saying, "It’s not enough. There are 578 kids behind , and Teacher Mu only gave one—how’s that enough?"
The currency of the Alliance is credit points. Most people use virtual currency for transactions, gradually replacing physical currency. Yet, so prefer physical currency, so steel coins, paper currency, still haven’t been eliminated. The main change is the material used to make them.
The steel coin Mu Jianling gave, valued at 1000 credit points.
After Zhang Si said this, Mu Jianling didn’t lift his eyes, "Not enough, still missing one for you."
Then, Mu Jianling flicked his fingers, sending the steel coin barreling towards Zhang Si’s brow. Zhang Si stood motionless.
Then—
The steel coin hovered in mid-air.
Mu Jianling’s eyes darkened, the coin rushed forward again.
Zhang Si smiled without moving and said, "Teacher Mu, seeing your healthy complexion, I am relieved. By the way, is Fufeng getting accustod to your class? Why haven’t I seen him here this ti?"
Mu Jianling’s eyes darkened, withdrawing his spiritual power.
The steel coin stuck in mid-air, boom—
crashed onto the floor.
Mu Jianling said, "If you worry that much, you can have him transferred to your school, taught by you, how about that?"
Zhang Si chuckled, withdrew her spiritual power that opposed Mu Jianling, and said, "I am not very good at teaching students; I am quite relieved with Fufeng under your tutelage, so please, Teacher Mu, take extra care of him."
Here they ca.
Playing ball again.
Ji You secretly thought: Fortunately, student Liu Fufeng isn’t here, or else he’d squat on the ground drawing circles cursing people, wouldn’t he?
