24:15.
Reflection Ruins Realm, thick Gray Fog enveloped the entire Yuanmeng Middle School.
In front of the locked door with an iron fence, outside the yellow cordon painted with various mysterious symbols, vehicles branded with the abbreviation "FZDC" emblem surrounded the place.
--These are of course the work of "Disaster Prevention Response Investigation Agency". God knows how they transported these vehicles into the Reflection Ruins Realm.
The white characters "FZDC" with the pinyin of Federation as the abbreviation, combined with the logo on the shield, are the most famous external symbol of the Tinghai Authorities special Disaster Prevention Response Investigation Agency.
At this moment, the yellow warning line surrounding the school was connected by black pickup trucks. Each pickup truck had a pyramid-like cone-shaped metal on its roof, which automatically rotated like some kind of strange antenna.
"Buzz!"
These cone-shaped metals vibrate softly and emit a special hum, causing the densely packed mysterious symbols on the yellow warning line to shimmer and resonate with the hum.
As the yellow warning line stretched straight, some invisible Ritual field opened up, covering and sealing the entire Yuanmeng Middle School.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
At the same time, the roar of a swarm of wasps passed through the air, pitch-black drones hovered at low altitude, and fire-breathing robot dogs patrolled the ground. The silent but cold Guns and Cannons was loaded onto it, and the dark blue enchanted runes on the barrel flickered faintly.
On the ground, FZDC's unique disaster prevention and emergency response forces, wearing exoskeleton heavy armor, holding guns and ammunition with expressionless faces, and holding explosion-proof shields, stood shoulder to shoulder behind the cordon, forming an airtight human wall.
The muzzles of the guns in their hands were all pointed at the ground, and they were given death orders from above not to fire first at anything coming out of it.
This is done to avoid triggering some unknown "rules" from the school and angering the school or even the entire street.
The large searchlights mounted on the pickup truck illuminated the dark streets as bright as day, but when these lights were transferred to the school, they all disappeared, as if they were swallowed up by the silent darkness behind the school's iron gate.
"Report sir!"
"Bang, bang, bang," an officer wearing an exoskeleton armor ran over and saluted Lean Man, who was standing on a pickup truck.
The saluting officer had the military rank Second Lieutenant hanging on his shoulders. The armor on his body had a huge claw mark. The broken armor flashed with electric arcs, as if it had just been torn apart by some huge monster.
At this moment, his lower body was sprayed with blood-like chili oil, with a strong smell of spicy sticks lingering on his body... But this was also proof of his merits:
"Our department has successfully cleared the Convenience Store anomaly at the school gate. Please give instructions on the next step, sir!"
Lean Man looked over and nodded to him gently:
"Thank you for your hard work Second Lieutenant, come back to the team and stay alert!"
"Yes!"
After the ceremony, he turned around and Second Lieutenant, who had returned covered in blood, trotted back.
Then, Lean Man picked up a Electric Megaphone, turned around and looked at the crowded crowd behind him:
"Everyone--"
The enlarged electronic music spread, and the "crusaders" recruited by FZDC fell silent.
These people were temporarily gathered here. Compared with the armed army with strict orders and prohibitions, they were completely a group of "stragglers".
Among these people, some were wearing masks, holding staffs and wearing retro robes; others were wearing rather non-mainstream fancy clothes, with long dyed hair and holding exaggeratedly large long knives;
There are students wearing high school uniforms but with electric sparks dancing on their fingertips, there is Baldy wearing a cape cosplaying as Superman, and there is a muscular man with a thick chain hanging from his neck, leaning against the wall with his hands folded to look cool.
All kinds of people gathered here, like a large comic exhibition or a bad party, but each of them should not be underestimated.
These "wild" extraordinary people who have not been included in the Authorities system include wandering Wizard, Medium who are in school, lucky ones who have inherited the path by chance, and poor low-income households who are anonymous and heroic.
Although most of the time, Wild Extraordinarys are regarded as unstable factors by Authorities, discriminated against and suppressed, and either incorporated or arrested.
But those who can stand here are basically the "reserves" of Authorities personnel who have been screened by Authorities for a long time and are currently under investigation. They have a clean background, acceptable conduct, and considerable strength.
Generally speaking, FZDC is often the department that absorbs the most non-staff personnel, because what they face is not as simple as one or two weird things. The word "disaster prevention" says it all.
Whenever a "disaster" strikes, a large number of manpower is the basis for all actions. For this reason, FZDC has even specially invented more than a dozen Labor Dispatch positions such as "private consultant" and "Public Welfare Management".
This type of position enjoys a certain salary and relatively basic welfare guarantees. You no longer need to worry about being monitored or arrested by Authorities. From now on, you can become a noble person serving Federation citizens.
Those who are exceptionally good at work may even have the opportunity to pass the exam or be selected to become a full-time employee, which opens up a path of advancement for wild Extraordinary people to get an iron rice bowl.
"Everyone, it's time for Federation to test you!"
The sound of the trumpet blared, shaking the eardrums of every extraordinary person in front of the school:
"You are all the lucky ones favored by fate. From Ordinary to Extraordinary World."
"However, destiny has given us extraordinary abilities, which also means that we have to take on responsibilities that ordinary people cannot imagine... just like now!"
"Next, I will create conditions for you and open a gap in the front of the school."
"And your mission is to use your abilities to sneak into the school to explore, use the equipment you carry with you to investigate the environment, and report back the specific situation inside the school."
He explained the situation concisely and concisely, his deep voice a little hoarse:
"This task is not easy, because at this time we know nothing about the situation inside the school, and the risks may be greater than expected."
"So, if you face a crisis, you can always choose to retreat."
"--When the final investigation is completed, this department will personally take over the most arduous task of attack."
"So don't worry, FZDC is always with you!"
Lean Man's voice is sonorous and powerful, as if offering some kind of promise:
"There is no cannon fodder here. The institution will provide you with remote guidance at any time and stand at the school gate waiting for reception."
"If you have any needs, you can tell us in advance. The entire FZDC resources are your strong backing!"
"I must remind you again that this trip is bound to be dangerous."
"But when the task is completed, the institution will also give you varying degrees of thanks based on your investigation results at the school."
"The ten best among them can become FZDC's Labor Dispatch External Member, and this identity will also be recognized by all major Authorities departments..."
Lean Man stood on the pickup truck, holding up the loudspeaker and talking, describing a bright future to these extraordinary people who had never seen the world.
In order to better solve this crisis, in addition to ten non-staff positions...
FZDC even promised that after the incident is over, depending on the investigation performance, the agency will open to them some lower-level confidentiality Anomalous Knowledge to a certain extent.
In Mystic World, where all knowledge is strictly monopolized, these Wild Extraordinarys lack the most these things.
Many of them don't even understand some of the most basic Small Rituals. Their understanding of Magic Potion, Ritual and the like is limited to Ritual that enters Reflection Ruins Realm. The only way to develop and exercise their own abilities is to bend a spoon and eject coins--
So at this moment, the emotions of these extraordinary people seem to be quite excited.
It is true that there are many risks in exploring Yuanmeng Middle School, but the higher the risk, the greater the reward. If you miss this opportunity, will you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse next time?
The sonorous and powerful speeches, the very grand formation, and the soldiers' various dazzling Extraordinary Equipment all made these extraordinary people feel solemn and full of confidence.
They were gearing up, excited and Greed, and some even thought it was just a larger-scale exorcism game.
As long as this time is over, they will be able to transform and gain recognition from Authorities, from wild Black Chicken to Phoenix holding an iron rice bowl!
With this idea in mind, they are already gearing up and can't wait to try the depth of Yuanmeng Middle School.
--No one can stop it!
Next, everyone was issued a walkie-talkie and a miniature camera that recorded the transmission in real time.
This kind of camera uses the latest technology produced by Council of Scientific Supremacy Tinghai Branch. While it is portable and easy to carry, it can capture "Dirty Things" that cannot be seen by Ordinary electronic devices, and it has extraordinary dynamic capture capabilities!
Even in a place like Reflection Ruins Realm, where interference is everywhere, the camera can faithfully record and transmit everything that is happening in the school.
What these extraordinary people have to do is to wear these miniature cameras on their chests, sneak into the school as forward reconnaissance, and pass everything they see back to FZDC.
There will naturally be a Staff Department gate at that time, and a final general attack plan will be formulated to minimize the final casualties!
"Boom!"
With a blast, the sealed iron door was forcibly opened by Explosion Ritual.
Drones and robot dogs loaded with weapons poured in like water, launching a tentative attack on the mysterious Yuanmeng Middle School.
As the Gray Fog rolling around the school slowly dispersed, hundreds of Student Phalanx were revealed on the Sports Field, who were doing exercises while twisting their waists and turning their buttocks.
However, each student has no facial features, their movements are stiff but uniform, and the strange picture is absurd and frightening.
The battle is about to break out, and Guns and Cannons sounds are heard loudly.
"Now!"
The man holding the loudspeaker gave a sharp shout, and hundreds of extraordinary people behind him moved accordingly.
Taking advantage of Student Phalanx who was guarding the door, hundreds of "reptiles" were able to successfully get into the school, just like sand mixed with cement or sewage flowing into the sea.
In the thick Gray Fog, the Extraordinaries either in groups or alone, began to explore the interior of the school.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
At the same time, hundreds of clear pictures also appeared inside the command vehicle outside the school.
The lights are turned off in the spacious but dark interior space of the car, and various projection images occupy the four walls, playing the first-person perspectives transmitted by the Extraordinaries' body cameras in real time.
Some people are pointing fingers in the air, as if communicating with the spirituality in the air; some people are scribbling on the ground, studying where to go next in the fog.
Someone was about to carefully push open a rusty iron door in front of them. No one knew what was hidden behind Dao Gate.
In the thick fog, they quickly became separated from each other, sneaking slowly and carefully.
At this moment, as pictures were sent back, a 3D Projection Model, which was about the internal structure of Yuanmeng Middle School, was slowly taking shape little by little in the center of the command vehicle.
Under the projection screen with hundreds of flashing images, Listeners conveyed the final debugging results of the signal:
"Report! The transmission signal is stable, the delay is low, all 112 Biological Signal Tracking are online, the vital signs reading is normal, Mental Fluctuation Index is at the normal threshold... everything is normal at the technical level!"
"Report! There is no abnormality in the vicinity of Spiritual Activity, and it is being continuously monitored."
"The equipment is normal, the signal is normal, the status of the personnel is normal, the progress of the operation is progressing steadily, and the infiltrators have not encountered fierce resistance yet."
"..."
Facing Listener's report, the staff members wrote down and analyzed what was written quickly.
Behind the staff officers, Lean Man was sitting on a chair in a dark corner, next to the loudspeaker that had just been put down.
"Squeak!"
The chair under my butt shook twice.
The upper body was slightly tilted forward, and the skinny hands were crossed. Lean Man stared at his particularly energetic but bloodshot eyes, scanning the hundreds of clear projection images around him.
In the end, he hesitated, finally nodded slightly, and gave a judgment in a deep voice:
"Always stay in touch with them."
"Everything is normal, continue monitoring and proceed as planned!"
"..."
Breathing softly, Lean Man shook his messy and greasy mushroom hair, and raised his hand to rub the thick and conspicuous dark circles on his face twice.
He had not slept for three days and two nights, so he was somewhat tired, but this did not affect his brain to remain highly active.
Hope... all goes well.
The expensive drones and robot dogs were quickly destroyed by Student Phalanx.
There was a bang! The iron door was closed tightly again.
People standing outside the school could only watch as the heavy Gray Fog surged up again, drowning everything behind the iron gate.
Everyone knows very clearly that at this moment, the real test of meeting those extraordinary people... has just begun!
In Gray Fog, Student Phalanx, which consisted of several hundred people, disbanded on the spot, and began to search for the "invaders" who had not gone far in groups.
At first, the Extraordinaries did not pay attention to these strange students with no faces and black eyes.
But they soon discovered that as long as they were discovered by these students and pestered for a while, a tall "teacher" would follow them.
Then, the teacher either waved Teaching Whip and whipped them into spinning tops, or took out a belt and tied their heads like a horse pole.
At this moment, the Extraordinaries with bruised noses and faces finally recalled the fear of being dominated by teachers in school when they were children...
"Report! The signals of No. 25, No. 57, and No. 81 disappeared at the same time!"
"They were spotted by students on patrol!"
"No! No. 3 met Vice Principal who was patrolling the building. He kicked his butt and asked why he was late...No. 3 had a mental breakdown!"
"..."
The succession of bad news made Lean Man's face livid.
"Evaluate the strength of "Vice Principal" immediately!"
"Based on the current intelligence, simulate the patrol route of the students, and remind the infiltrating Extraordinaries to be careful! Once discovered, do not entangle, and be sure to run away immediately!"
Although he had expected Tinghai Middle School to be heavily guarded, he still did not expect that the drones and robot dogs worth tens of millions were instantly scrapped, and the tentative attack failed to even cause waves.
Those Student Phalanxs who were guarding behind the iron gate and wandering among the Gray Fogs were more terrifying than he thought!
In the blink of an eye, nearly 10 extraordinary people were captured by the students, and the signal was lost.
A bad start...
Lean Man's bloodshot eyes stared intently at the remaining surveillance footage, praying for the first time in his life that these "wild" extraordinary beings could live well.
"..."
the other side.
A gunshot rang out at the front door.
An unnoticed Black Cat emerged from an inconspicuous dog hole somewhere in Yuanmeng Middle School.
"Buzz!"
In the diffuse Gray Fog, accompanied by the fierce gunshots like firecrackers in the distance, Black Cat transformed into Bai Zhou wearing a dark windbreaker.
But he quickly took off his windbreaker and took out a blue and white school uniform and put it on.
--The school uniform left by Kao Shi Wang came in handy at this time.
"Buzz!"
The moment his hands passed through the cuffs of his school uniform, Bai Zhou immediately felt like he was enveloped in an inexplicable field.
It's hard to describe this feeling, but the visibility in Gray Fog is suddenly much higher.
Since entering Reflection Tinghai, the "sense of exclusion" that had been vaguely surrounding Bai Zhou has also disappeared, replaced by a feeling of being at home, and even the spirituality in the body has become much more active.
Now, it seems that it is really "Tinghai Welcome You"...
"Da!"
Bai Zhou was getting used to this feeling when suddenly there was the sound of slight footsteps in his ears.
Someone!
Bai Zhou was immediately alert and stared at the past.
Two students without ears, mouths or noses slowly walked out from the quiet depths of Gray Fog and passed by Bai Zhou.
Their eyes were black holes with no pupils, and they looked straight at Bai Zhou.
Bai Zhou immediately felt terrified and his muscles were a little stiff.
Because following the two students was a semi-bald man wearing a striped polo shirt, a leather belt, shorts, gray socks and sandals!
"Not good!"
--It was the head teacher who almost used Teaching Whip to capture him last time!
How could it come so quickly...
Bai Zhou subconsciously searched for a nearby escape route, his heart in his throat.
Although they are no longer what they used to be, he knows very well how difficult these guys are. If they cannot be resolved in a short time, the fight will attract more terrifying beings.
This school is unfathomable, and any carelessness will trigger a chain reaction. The occasional and fleeting gunshots of the crusaders in the distance explain everything!
However, just when Bai Zhou subconsciously took out the Short Club from his waist--
"Da!"
Two students walked up to Bai Zhou and stood in front of him. Their dark pupils looked at Bai Zhou directly, and they tilted their heads, as if they were slightly confused.
It was only then that Bai Zhou noticed that they had been staring directly at him since just now. They were actually looking at his school uniform...?
Then, in unison, they bowed slightly towards Bai Zhou.
Although they obviously have no mouths, they can still speak in unison, making a dull and strange sound from their throats:
"--Senior Student Good!"
Learn, Senior Student?
Bai Zhou's eyes blinked twice, and his head felt a little down.
Then, the head teacher with a terrible sense of oppression snorted coldly, raised his hand and pointed at Bai Zhou:
"Remember to zip up your school uniform and pay attention to your grooming at all times!"
"Which teacher is your student? Didn't he teach you?"
"--I won't do it next time!"
It didn't take long for the words to fall.
After scolding the students, the head teacher walked away with his hands behind his back, his leisurely figure gradually sinking into the depths of Gray Fog.
Two classmates followed closely behind, walking in a hurry.
After a while, their figures disappeared.
"... Is this the end?"
Bai Zhou blinked his eyes twice again, his eyes flickered, and the light inside became brighter and brighter.
At this moment, he finally came back to his senses. While his heart was pounding, he slowly took a deep breath.
His back straightened suddenly, Bai Zhou coughed lightly, slowly crossed his hands and put them behind his back.
"Da..."
There was a soft sound of footsteps, and Bai Zhou began to imitate the director's pace, and his figure gradually merged into Gray Fog.
In the school surrounded by Gray Fog, gunfire echoed vaguely everywhere, but it soon stopped abruptly, making people heart-wrenching and understanding that there is infinite murderous intent hidden in Gray Fog.
This Authorities dare not go deep easily and is heavily guarded by the unfathomable Yuanmeng Middle School. It looks like a Monster that eats people without spitting out their bones.
Extremely dangerous!
No one knows how many Extraordinaries will come back, not even the Extraordinaries themselves.
Because with the deepening of the exploration of the campus, faced with the Heavenly Net-like searches of the students, one by one the companions were killed one after another...
These extraordinary people who were originally confident gradually began to lose their confidence.
Sure enough, the advantage of Authorities is not so easy to take advantage of!
They began to be extremely nervous and cautious. Every step of their exploration was difficult, and every time they escaped from capture, they were grateful.
However, looking back at Bai Zhou--
The pacing young man was strolling through the campus. Although he was still cautious in his heart, on the outside he seemed to be at ease, as if he were at home.
Even if he bumped into students who were searching for "intruders" several times, Bai Zhou would just nod to them calmly.
Then, by chance, they would greet Bai Zhou very respectfully.
Although Bai Zhou looked expressionless at first, he was actually quite nervous inside.
But later, his mood began to be as calm as the expression on his face.
What intruder, what Adventurer Bai Zhou... I don't understand.
Call me Senior Student!
--Zhou Xue Chang!
