No... where did this living Spore Person come from?
Shen Heng stared in that direction in surprise, then quickly came up with an answer in a flash.
Which of them ran away on their own?
Were those people all infected by spores and then transformed into Spore Person?
Otherwise, why didn't they even send out a cry for help?
A deep sense of doubt filled Shen Heng's mind.
However, the Decaying Spore Guard doesn't care what you hear; his attack begins the instant he lands.
"Whoosh--"
A sharp sound of wind breaking came from behind.
"Watch out!" Le Gu Nan's voice came from not far away.
Shen Heng snapped out of his daze, glanced at the tentacle sweeping towards him, and quickly crouched down.
Whoosh--!
A dark green tentacle swept across Shen Heng Shen Heng's head, followed by another tentacle that stabbed straight at him.
Shen Heng pushed off the ground and his figure retreated rapidly.
Bang!
The tentacles slammed into the ground right in front of Shen Heng.
Shen Heng slightly turned his head to dodge a pebble. As he pondered, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Le Gu Nan.
" Le Gu Nan, hurry over to the parking lot! Several Spore Person have appeared there!"
Upon hearing this, Le Gu Nan, who was about to go find another Decaying Spore Guard, suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Shen Heng and said in surprise:
Have the Spore Person appeared over there?
"Um!"
"Why...?"
"I'm not sure, but you have to get there quickly, otherwise dozens of people might die by the time the captain and the others arrive!" Shen Heng said with a serious expression.
"But... this..."
Le Gu Nan hesitated, looking at the two Decaying Spore Guard ahead, and at the tentacles sweeping towards him...
She subconsciously mimicked Shen Heng's actions, crouching down to dodge the attack.
"Never mind that, I'll hold them off here. You hurry over there. Remember, there's more than one Spore Person!" Shen Heng roared as he dodged the attacks of the Decaying Spore Guard.
Le Gu Nan bit her lower lip, turned her head to look at the two Decaying Spore Guard one last time, then turned and ran quickly towards the school parking lot.
Watching Le Gu Nan leave, Shen Heng breathed a sigh of relief, but then his brows furrowed again.
It's completely chaotic over there!
Before we saw any living Spore Person, things were fine; they could still move around together.
Now that they've seen the living Spore Person, they're completely oblivious to everything else and just run for their lives.
The Spore Person were also forced to separate because of their separation.
At this point, no matter who goes, all they can do is try to minimize casualties.
not to mention...
Bang!
The tentacles landed.
Shen Heng leaped backward.
He regained his footing, raised his eyes, and looked toward the two Decaying Spore Guard not far away.
"Now that things have come to this, we can't let these two get away with it..."
"Hahoo... Hahoo..."
Yan Sheng walked quickly forward, panting heavily.
His gaze unconsciously drifted to the two people at the front, who were two girls.
One of them had a high ponytail, which he didn't recognize, while the other was a girl with a cool face and a determined look in her eyes— Shen Shuning.
In the chaos of his escape, he didn't know where to go. When he saw Shen Shuning, he felt she was reliable, so he subconsciously followed her.
Actually, it wasn't just him; there were about a dozen other people scattered around him, who probably shared similar thoughts.
and...
Yan Sheng turned his head and looked at the figure behind him who was clearly in a running posture, but whose speed wasn't much faster than his walking pace. He couldn't help but say:
"Hey, Kong Haochen, hurry up!"
"You think I don't want to run faster? I'm just... hah... I can't run anymore!" Kong Haochen continued running forward, panting heavily.
After a while, he finally arrived at Yan Sheng's side, and the running posture he had been forcing himself to maintain finally switched to brisk walking.
"You have to run even if you can't, otherwise you're finished if that guy catches up!" Yan Sheng looked at Kong Haochen with a hint of disappointment.
"But... I looked back when I left, and it seems that after they catch someone, they turn that person into Spore Person like them." The girl standing next to Shen Shuning turned to look at them.
"In the end, there might be dozens or even hundreds of Spore Person looking for us on campus. What will we do then?"
silence...
Subconsciously, everyone began to imagine the scenario the girl had described.
In the vast school, he huddled under the teacher's desk, trembling with fear, the only sound the occasional footsteps of the Spore Person patrolling the corridors...
Thinking of this, everyone's bodies began to tremble slightly, and an emotion called despair was brewing among them.
Shen Shuning turned to look at the terrified crowd and began to reassure them:
"No, didn't they just say on the loudspeaker that they've already called the police? They should be here soon!"
"But the nearest police station shouldn't be more than ten minutes away, right? It's been more than ten minutes already, and they could have rushed over from the city center in a little while!" Xiao Bai'er retorted.
"This kind of thing shouldn't be something ordinary police officers can handle!" Shen Shuning gently shook her head, then turned to the crowd and asked, "Do you all remember the announcement just now?"
"Um... was that the announcement that told us to leave school?" someone asked hesitantly.
"Yes!" Shen Shuning nodded. "I didn't have time to think about it before, but now that I think about it, whether it was the sudden announcement telling us to evacuate or the fact that we were able to hide safely for more than ten minutes, it all means that someone in our school knows about this and is handling it!"
"Is this for real? Does our school have such amazing teachers?"
"Whether it's a teacher or not is still uncertain, but it's definitely one, otherwise, given the speed of that Spore Person we just encountered, we shouldn't have been able to hide for so long!" Shen Shuning replied.
"Then... why are these Spore Person reappearing now?"
Shen Shuning fell silent for a moment upon hearing this. She wasn't sure why either. Had she sacrificed herself while dealing with this matter? Or had she been held back by something?
Just then, a boy suddenly shouted.
" Spore Person are chasing us! Run!"
Shen Shuning turned her head and saw a dark green Spore Person standing in the distance. He had obviously also noticed the group, turned around, and ran quickly toward them.
The people around panicked instantly, and without thinking, they quickly stepped forward.
"Damn it, why did I have to choose this direction again!"
As Kong Haochen ran forward, he roared inwardly.
However, reality did not change because of his inner roar; the Spore Person were rapidly approaching them.
He hadn't run for long, maybe only ten seconds or so, when Kong Haochen started panting heavily again.
"Hahoo... Hahoo..."
Heavy breathing echoed in his ears, and even the sound of his heartbeat resounded like a drumbeat.
Kong Haochen ignored everything and ran forward frantically, for this was a matter of life and death.
However, despite this, he was still the last member of the team.
One by one, people gradually disappeared from his sight: Shen Shuning with a slight frown, Yan Sheng with an anxious yet helpless Yan Sheng, and many more who didn't turn back...
