Chapter 32: Panic
Although Xiao Chen didn't know what Qianqian's identity was, at least Qianqian had helped him many times, so he also hoped that Qianqian could persevere.
……
Panic was still spreading on campus, and Xiao Chen found that many of the students were now suspicious.
Especially Lu Xiaoxi, this guy was already as timid as a mouse, but now that he heard about such a thing, he didn't even dare to stay alone in the dormitory and skip class.
In addition, the spread of this ghost mood also directly affected several of Zhou Qiqi's roommates, but to Xiao Chen's surprise, not only did they not ask Chen Meng if they knew some truths, but also blamed Chen Meng for these ghost things.
After the last class in the afternoon, Xiao Chen heard Chen Meng being verbally insulted by more students, and the cause of this was spread by Zhou Qiqi's roommates.
However, what impressed Xiao Chen was that although Zhou Qiqi was their "eldest sister", her attitude towards Chen Meng was actually quite good, and she had been trying to stop them from bullying Chen Meng.
No wonder Lu Xiaoxi likes her, this girl's personality is indeed good, although it is spicy, but she is very kind.
Chen Meng was still as silent and alone as before, Xiao Chen had nothing to do all day, so he simply followed Chen Meng all the time.
He found that there would still be some black aura coming out of Chen Meng's body from time to time, although it was intermittent, it seemed that it would never disappear completely.
Up to now, Xiao Chen still couldn't understand the reason for the appearance of these black auras on Chen Meng's body, because these black auras were very similar to the black mist of psionic energy related to ghost points, and they could not be seen by living people, which showed that this was indeed something only found on the ghost plane, and now that it appeared on Chen Meng's body, Xiao Chen couldn't help but wonder if Chen Meng's body was stained with something "dirty".
But Xiao Chen can only be suspicious, but there is no actual evidence, let alone a way to deal with it.
It was probably the most panicked day the school had since it opened, and after the evening, another incident added to the panic.
Wanli Dragon City is here again!
Due to the deliberate propaganda of the school before, Wanli Longcheng has actually been known to many students in the school, and more importantly, most of the students have noticed that the burned books are all the works of Wanli Longcheng through the photos uploaded on the school intranet before, so as soon as they heard that Wanli Longcheng was going to conduct a new round of "lectures", many people planned to go and hear it.
Xiao Chen estimated that the size of this number was at least five times that of the previous day!
Chen Meng naturally would not give up any opportunity to see Wanli Dragon City, and the "lecture" of Wanli Dragon City was still in the lecture hall on the first floor of the original library, and Chen Meng and many people rushed to the scene as soon as possible.
Xiao Chen naturally followed, and he soon found Yue Ling, Zhou Qiqi and others in the crowd, and even Lu Xiaoxi came.
Xiao Chen felt a little funny in his heart, this Lu Xiaoxi seemed to be really afraid of ghosts, if he let this kid know that he was already a "ghost" spirit servant, I don't know if he would go crazy directly.
The lecture began quickly, but to Xiao Chen's surprise, he had expected that the Ten Thousand Miles Dragon City would take this opportunity to continue to hype himself, saying that some people were jealous of his work, so as to further show how much his book was worth reading, and turn the loss of this fire into a gain.
However, Wanli Dragon City only made a unilateral clarification, saying that the fire in the library was completely an accident and coincidence, and for the convenience of the students, he would make up all the books that had been burned in the shortest possible time.
This "lecture" is actually more like a "press conference", except that there are no reporters and cameras at the press conference, only the students who are shrouded in panic.
Then Wanli Longcheng made a speech at the end that seemed to be very positive, he told the students to focus on studying, although the stories in his book are bizarre, but they are all false, I hope that the students can reasonably match entertainment and learning, and do not be delayed by this senseless panic.
This "lecture" seemed like a joke to Xiao Chen, and it was full of loopholes, the most obvious point being that Wanli Dragon City had no way to explain why the fire only burned his book accurately.
However, the students' trust in this "well-known writer" is extremely high, perhaps because even the author himself came out to clarify, and the students' panic was quickly suppressed.
Moreover, after the meeting ended, Xiao Chen actually heard that many students began to rumor that the books of Nali Dragon City were made of a particularly flammable material, so they would be "favored" by the flames first.
The more Xiao Chen listened, the more speechless he became, and he was almost certain that this statement was deliberately spread by the people who had been planted by the school to further reduce the students' attention and get everything back on track.
Wanli Dragon City did not leave directly after the lecture, but stayed in the library accompanied by several teachers.
Then Xiao Chen heard a "ding" sound!
Main quest 10: Protect the Dragon City
Reward: 500 Ghost Points
It's 500 ghost points again!
However, Xiao Chen was not as blindly excited as before, because according to the experience of the previous two times, the content of this kind of task with a large reward is usually more difficult.
Whether it was protecting Qianqian or preventing the fire from being extinguished, Xiao Chen encountered a lot of thrilling things.
And more importantly, this mission actually involves Wanli Dragon City!
This author is really problematic!
Soon the students were all gone, and Xiao Chen found that it seemed that neither Yue Ling nor Chen Meng had stayed.
However, Xiao Chen didn't care about them now, he just quickly approached the side of Wanli Dragon City.
Could it be that these teachers who accompanied him near him were going to do it?
But it's not like it, because from the conversations between these teachers and Wanli Dragon City, Xiao Chen didn't find anything special, they were just saying some polite words on the scene.
After the students had completely left, Nali Long Cheng said that he wanted to go to the second floor to see what was going on, because he had to calculate how many books he should donate for free next.
As soon as these teachers heard that they wanted to donate books, they agreed to it, and said that they were willing to accompany him, but they were politely declined by Wanli Dragon City, saying that he would simply count the number of missing books, so that there was no need to trouble those teachers.
Soon there was only Wanli Dragon City itself left inside the library, and there was only one security guard outside.
Wanli Dragon City began to walk towards the second floor.
Well...... What a perfect time and place for the attack.
However, Xiao Chen soon found that this task seemed to contradict the previous situation again.
In the last mission, when Xiao Chen was about to see the relevant content in the book, he was forced to burn all the books of Wanli Dragon City by the system task, so now after Wanli Dragon City himself appeared, the system in order to "cut the grass and eradicate the roots", even if he didn't kill Wanli Dragon City, it shouldn't let Xiao Chen protect him in turn!
Aren't you afraid that you will get some definite new information from the mouth of Wanli Dragon City himself?
Or did he say that the work of this Thousand Thousand Miles Dragon City was not written by himself, but was created for him by the gunman, so that he did not know some details?
In this way, in his thoughts, Xiao Chen had already followed the Ten Thousand Miles Dragon City up to the second floor.
At this time, a slightly nervous look began to appear on Wanli Dragon City's face, and he was still panting heavily, as if he had just finished ten kilometers.
He's scared too?
Infected by Wanli Dragon City, Xiao Chen himself also had a certain sense of urgency.
I saw Wanli Dragon City lower his body and began to grope for the original location of his burned books.
At first, Xiao Chen thought that he was trying to find out if there were any leftover books burned, but soon he found that the Ten Thousand Miles Dragon City was more like feeling the traces of the burning itself.
Because many times he would stick his palms to the ashes for a long time.
"It's weird." Wanli Dragon City said to himself, "How could it come true? ”
Although Wanli Dragon City's sentence is short, it reveals a key message.
Xiao Chen thinks that the plot of this kind of flame burning a particular book must have appeared in his novel before he says the word "come true".
The Ten Thousand Miles Dragon City touched almost all the places where the flames had been burned with his hands, and then began to walk towards the third floor again.
It's strange, if Xiao Chen remembers correctly, the third floor is full of materials and reference books for studying, and there can't be his works, why did he run up?
However, Xiao Chen quickly followed.
Before he went up to the third floor, Xiao Chen felt that the singing crystal doll in his pocket immediately became hot.
It looks like another memory illusion is about to appear!
Xiao Chen hurriedly took out the crystal doll and shook it, a starlight shot out, and then slowly landed next to an oil painting on the wall in front of him.
Where the starlight landed, Qianqian's back appeared.
This time, the duration of the image was quite short, and Xiao Chen only saw Qianqian's hand stretched out towards the back of the oil painting, and then disappeared.
Xiao Chen hurriedly ran towards the location of the oil painting, and found that it was a picture of men and women snuggling up to each other under the sunset, which didn't look special.
Xiao Chen quickly stretched out his hand to the back of the oil painting, and sure enough, he found that there was a hidden dark grid behind the oil painting, and the third crystal bead was inside!
Unfortunately, the beads still don't react.
Xiao Chen put the beads away, and as soon as he turned around, he found that Wanli Dragon City's eyes were staring at him!
Xiao Chen reacted immediately, when he stretched out his hand to the back of the oil painting just now, it must have made the oil painting itself tremble, and all of this was seen by Wanli Dragon City!
