Escape From the LibraryCh30 - Cross-Country Orienteering 06

Hearing the discussion of Yue Xingwen and the two teammates, Jiang Pingce leaned over and asked in a low voice, “Do you know that female student?”

Yue Xingwen briefly explained, “Her name is Qin Lu, and like Liu Xiaoxiao, we were matched to the same examination room in <Cardiovascular Ward> before, and we had cooperated once. She’s majoring in geographical planning at Nanyang Jiaotong University and she has a plate movement skill.” Upe Tk

Jiang Pingce pondered and said, “With the plate movement, can she directly move the card in the middle of the river?”

Yue Xingwen nodded, “En, that’s why she’s so confident. A few male students on the other side should not be able to grab this card.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

However, Qin Lu did not move the card directly with her ‘plate movement’ as Jiang Pingce guessed, but it was the male students opposite who took the lead––

One of them, a tall, dark-skinned male student, took out a thin, long wooden pole in his right hand, and he propped the pole hard on the ground, and his body suddenly took off, like a big bird, floating down behind the four of the female students. iJ5YaX

The male student showed the row of his white teeth and said to Qin Lu, “I don’t want to bully anyone, so let us have this card.”

Qin Lu’s expression was cold, “Why should I give it to you? Who bullies who is still not certain.”

The male student found it was impossible to reason with her, so he frowned and winked at his partner on the other side of the river.

One of the clean-cut male students with dyed blonde hair suddenly raised his right hand. Then, they only saw countless white hurdles of about one meter densely connected together, appearing around Qin Lu and her teammates, surrounding them like a fence for captive animals.

Immediately after that, the overwhelming ping-pong balls rained down like a rainstorm!

Ordinary ping-pong balls naturally could not hurt anyone, but the library’s ping-pong balls were clearly strengthened, like a solid hailstorm, and it was no joke to be smashed.

The pole jumping, hurdles that appeared and surrounded people in an instant, and the overwhelming ping-pong balls…

This magical scene was almost like a movie. rT57Yv

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce glanced at each other, and the latter said in a low voice, “It should be the team from the Xizhou Sports College.”

Yue Xingwen nodded and agreed, “En, all they get is sports tools, it’s not easy to deal with.”

Seeing the rainstorm-like ping-pong balls crackling down, Qin Lu’s face changed as she sharply said, “Go!”

A female student next to her immediately took out her globe and shouted, “Switch place!” ZbrqvQ

The four moved instantly to the opposite side of the river, surrounding the three male students on the opposite side in turn.

The shortest male student on the other side suddenly summoned a skateboard, and everyone only felt a flash before their eyes as he took his two teammates on the skateboard and instantly rowed to the opposite shore, joining the male student who had jumped over at the beginning.

The two sides exchanged positions and faced each other across the river, the atmosphere was still tense.

The pole jumping dark-skinned male student, raised an eyebrow and advised, “There’s no need to fight to the death while grabbing a card, right? I advise you to look elsewhere, there’s no point in fighting us to the death!” 9 Tddj

Qin Lu’s expression was extremely cold, “I also advise you to look for it elsewhere, this card belongs to us.”

Male students: “…”

The four obviously did not expect to meet such a tough girl, several male students glanced at each other. The tallest one, the captain, frowned somewhat impatiently and lowered his voice, “Don’t talk nonsense, just grab it!”

The card was instantly transferred to the opposite side of the river, less than a meter away from Qin Lu.

Qin Lu bent over to pick up the card, but unfortunately, before her fingertips could touch the card, a piece of discus fell from the sky mixed with a sharp wind, and with a ‘bang’, it directly smashed the card’s location into a huge crater ten meters deep!

Qin Lu withdrew her hand with a calm expression.

The next moment, the pole jumping male student leapt up and came to the side of the big crater to stop Qin Lu. ZJiQ1P

Immediately after that, the male student holding the ping-pong racket suddenly jumped three times in a row—— They only saw his toes flicking on the quagmire like a dragonfly, making his first jump to the other side of the river, his second into the bottom of the crater, and his third back to his teammates.

The smooth triple jump, like the qigong master in the martial arts movies, was dazzlingly fast!

Everyone only felt that a shadow had passed in front of them, and immediately after that, the male student stood firmly next to his captain, holding a blue card in his hand, and said with a smile, “Senior brother Cheng, I got the blue…”

Unfortunately, before he could finish his sentence, he heard Qin Lu recite softly, “To dismiss military hierarchy using wine cups——” zxYkC

As soon as the words were spoken, the male students that were holding the pole, ping-pong racket, skateboard, skipping rope, and the last blue card they got, as if driven by an invisible force—— Uncontrollably, they fell to the ground!

The four of them widened their eyes slightly.

The taller male student immediately bent over to pick up the card that had fallen to the floor, but found that he could not pick it up at all. What fell to the ground seemed to be fixed in place by a mysterious force, and could not be moved at all.

Qin Lu held out her right hand expressionlessly, her fair and slender hands seemed as if it had a magic power, and the blue card on the ground was summoned by her and floated to her hand of its own accord. She gently held the card between her index and middle fingers, raised her eyebrows and looked at the male students in front of her and said, “I told you a long time ago, you can’t snatch it away.” lV69kt

The taller male student cursed, “Fuck! What kind of skill is that?”

Qin Lu did not answer this question, and said lightly, “Are you from Xizhou Sports College? There’s no need to fight to the death with us for the sake of the blue card—— These are your original words.”

Not only did this female student have a strong personality, she had a quite poisonous mouth too. The male students were so angry that they glared at her.

Yue Xingwen looked at Liu Zhaoqing and said softly, “She is not Qin Lu.” MlRTuI

Qin Lu should not have a big personality change in just two days, right?

In the cardiovascular ward before, Qin Lu was delicate and pretty introverted, not to mention a cold expression, when she encountered this situation, she would back off, rather than directly fight head-on like this female student in front of them.

Liu Zhaoqing scratched the back of his head confusedly, and said, “Are they twins? They look very similar.” Ke Shaobin echoed, “They are really similar. I remember that Qin Lu also has short hair and very fair skin.”

The four female students switched places once again, teleporting to this side of the river and coming towards where Yue Xingwen and the others were. lLtmbC

The male students from the sports college failed to grab the card and seemed a little upset. As the captain was about to speak, at this moment, those rock-like things in the river suddenly moved, and one of the rocks closest to ‘Qin Lu’ suddenly opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp fangs——

Yue Xingwen shouted, “Watch out, it’s a crocodile!”

Before ‘Qin Lu’ could react, the male student who had just summoned the skateboard took a look behind him and his face suddenly changed, hastily pulling her along and taking her and another teammate to slide out several meters away!

‘Qin Lu’ was shocked, and when she looked back, all the ‘rocks’ in the river had surfaced unknowingly. n57WHA

Sure enough, it was crocodiles.

Swarms of crocodiles lurking in the quagmire!

The female student with the globe screamed in horror, “Ahhhh crocodiles! So many crocodiles!”

The two male students on the other side of the quagmire hurriedly opened their jumping type skills to frantically escape. FUbGVg

They had long known that the 10-point blue card was not easy to take. Yue Xingwen initially thought that the difficulty of this card was that the wide quagmire would drown people like the swamp and sink in. As a result, he underestimated the library’s morals—— it was actually a group of crocodiles pretending to be rocks and hiding in the quagmire! If someone accidentally stepped on it just now, wouldn’t that person instantly become the crocodile’s meal?

His scalp went numb when thinking about it!

Crocodile’s attack their prey with a strong instantaneous burst of power, lunging at speeds of up to 80 to 90km/h, equivalent to the speed of a car on a highway, and humans would certainly not be able to outrun them. Fortunately, their explosive power lasted for a few seconds at most, and they could not continue to run, after all, their limbs could not support several tons of body weight.

However, if they did not run out of the crocodile’s attack range within those few seconds, the crocodiles really could kill the students if they pounced fiercely! Yue Xingwen did not hesitate to open his dictionary, “Seven up, Eight down!” Uu91bR

There were more than 15 crocodiles by the quagmire, which allowed him to use this skill.

As soon as the strong group control skill was opened, 7 of the crocodiles floated directly into the air, instantly losing the threat; The other 8 were knocked back into the deep quagmire by Yue Xingwen, and seeing the three female students over there still dazed in shock, Yue Xingwen hurriedly shouted, “Run, don’t stand in place!”

The three female students reacted and hurriedly took off their legs and dashed away madly.

The dark-skinned male student who jumped with the pole across the quagmire, picking up a female student, directly jumped straight out over ten meters. The male student who jumped three times in a row also picked up the two slow running female students with his hand, and the group stumbled to the front of Yue Xingwen and the others. The male student of the sports college exhaled, turned around and used his 100-meter hurdle to block and stop the crocodile swarm in the distance. moxn8N

Qin Lu’s face was pale, and she looked at the skateboard male student who took her to escape and said in a low voice, “Thank you.”

The male student scratched his head in embarrassment, and the root of his ear was a little red. “I can’t watch you being eaten by crocodiles. I also didn’t react to that being a crocodile either. *cough*, thanks to the brother who reminded me earlier…”

He looked gratefully at Yue Xingwen, who said, “Let’s get out of here first.”

The group left the quagmire area in horror and ran out a good distance before stopping in a forest area to take a breather. DFiNyQ

Several female students were holding onto the trunk with weak legs, and the male students were not much better, and their complexion looked ashen.

Crocodiles were animals that they had mostly only seen on TV, and the visual impact just now was really terrifying. So many crocodiles opened their bloody mouths, their sharp teeth could definitely bite them off with just one bite.

They were still fighting over that 10-point card, they really did not want their fucking lifes!

Qin Lu took a deep breath and handed the blue card to the dark-skinned male student, and said, “The card is for you guys, thanks for earlier.” DAMXlz

The male student laughed dryly and scratched his head. “Forget it, it’s a shame to rob it from the girls… We’ll look somewhere else.”

Qin Lu shoved the card hard into his hand and said calmly, “I don’t want to owe anyone, all four of us used up our displacement skills and were able to escape from the crocodile’s mouth thanks to all of you who took us with you when you ran, regardless of the previous disagreement.”

The skateboard male student took her, and the remaining three teammates were also carried around like chickens by a couple of tall male students from the sports college, this was the scene she saw in her eyes. Even though there was a bit of unpleasantness over the card earlier, how could a card compare to a life and death situation?

At the moment of life and death, the subconscious rescue of the male students from the sports college still made a little warmth float in the hearts of several female students. Just let it go this 10-point card. x6wli0

The taller male student did not refuse, he smiled and said, “Then I’ll accept it ah. *cough*. It’s not that I’m stingy and deliberately rob it from you guys. It’s really a few of us who are too unlucky, and we have not even found a card until now. This is the first one.”

He shoved the card back into his pocket and spat out, “This card is also too difficult to take, putting the card on a crocodile, fuck, I almost fell into the trap!”

Qin Lu’s face had regained its calm, and she said, “The 10-point card is already difficult to get, and the fact that you guys didn’t find the point card might be because there were too many teams landing in this area. Go around the crocodile pool and go over there to take a look.”

She pointed to the north, and the taller male student said, “Okay, we’re off then, you guys take care.” P0s4 G

Everyone said goodbye to each other. Qin Lu led her three teammates to the other direction, and she passed by Yue Xingwen’s side, only nodding at him to show her gratitude for the reminder just now.

Yue Xingwen looked at her back and could not help but ask, “You are not Qin Lu?”

Qin Lu was from the Geography Department, and had assisted them in the cardiovascular ward at first by pulling out the globe and using plate movement skill, but this female student just now did not take out the globe. Yue Xingwen remembered that she seemed to recite a sentence ‘To dismiss military hierarchy using wine cups’ to let the ‘weapon’ in the hands of the sports college’s male students fall to the ground, this obviously did not belong to the Geography Department’s skills.

When the female student heard this, her footsteps suddenly stopped. V6ibgT

She turned her head back and looked at Yue Xingwen doubtfully, “Do you know Qin Lu? Are you from Nanyang Jiaotong University?”

Yue Xingwen smiled, “No, I’m from Hua’an University. I had a random match with Qin Lu in the examination room before, so I met her. You look exactly the same as her, you are her… older sister, or younger sister?”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The female student said, “I’m her older sister, Qin Miao, from the History Department of Hua’an University.”

Yue Xingwen confirmed, “So, you just used Song Taizu, Zhao Kuangyin’s ‘To dismiss military hierarchy using wine cups’ skill?” Ux1hSP

Qin Miao nodded and replied, “Yes.”

This female student was so cold that she would simply end the conversation more than the cold king, Jiang Pingce.

Yue Xingwen coughed softly and said, “Be careful, don’t be careless when you encounter a 10-point card, goodbye.”

Qin Miao said, “En, goodbye.” ISxOC

She turned away with her three teammates, and did not show a close or friendly attitude because she met a schoolmate of Hua’an University, nor did she ask about Qin Lu.

Liu Zhaoqing touched his nose and said in a low voice, “Her skill ‘To dismiss military hierarchy using wine cups’ can disarm the weapon in groups. The scalpel and dictionary of both of us won’t work when we meet her.”

She had seized all the things in the hands of the four male students, and could not pick them up for a moment after they fell to the ground. Yue Xingwen looked at their distant backs and said, “This skill is really powerful against tool-type skills. It seems that the History Department is also very powerful.”

Since senior brother Zhuo Feng had explained that he could recruit powerful schoolmates to the team when he met them. They just lacked teammates majoring in liberal arts, Yue Xingwen actually intended to contact this female student and found a female companion for senior sister Lin Manluo. ZvGDJw

However, Qin Miao was too cold, and since she had her own team, Yue Xingwen dismissed the idea for now.

This deserted island’s survival was really thrilling, snakes, the bee’s nest, crocodiles, playing with their heartbeat. There were more and more teams at the bottom of the mountain and they had only got 25 points, it seemed that they had to hurry up.

Yue Xingwen took a deep breath and simply said, “Let’s go, we must speed up and grab some points!”
