Chapter 72 I Would Rather Control My Own Destiny
Xu Ye and Bai Tao stopped talking almost at the same time.
They looked at each other, and both hid in the trees silently, waiting a little nervously.
Is the so-called ghost catching people really that simple?
But just half a second later, the faces of the two changed, and they looked up at the same time.
A violent energy fluctuation jumped over their heads!
But Lian Shou's figure flew through the air at a very fast speed, without concealing his own energy fluctuations, and rushed straight to the edge of the forest.
The next second, a violent roar rang out.
The two looked far away, and saw that the edge of the forest was like being bombarded by a missile, and a cloud of dust was vibrating.
At the same time, Cang Wei's calm voice came from the air: "Three people have been eliminated."
As an assistant teacher, his responsibility at this time is to inform every student of the number of eliminated people.
"Three people were eliminated at once?" Xu Ye heard the news, and his face suddenly changed.
This test is much more dangerous than he thought!
Even though he limited his own realm, Lian Shou's terrifying strength was still far beyond his imagination!
"Can a Rock Realm person really burst out at that speed?"
...
At the edge of the forest, Lian Shou stepped on the ground, and the ground beneath his feet cracked into countless pieces, spreading like a spider web.
The light in the forest was dim, and the few rays of sunlight that occasionally leaked shone on his sunglasses, reflecting a dazzling luster.
The corners of his mouth raised high, revealing a strange smile.
The next moment, the tree on his right side actually shattered out of thin air.
A student fell from the tree, his face full of horror: "What happened..."
Before he finished speaking, his body flew backwards as if it had encountered an invisible attack, and fell unconscious.
Lian Shou's footsteps did not stop, and in a blink of an eye he appeared next to the bushes 20 meters away.
Another student flew backwards through the air and fell unconscious.
He did not stop moving forward, and jumped hard, jumping dozens of meters.
With the collapse of the trees, another student was eliminated on the spot.
He looked relaxed, looking far away, and said to himself: "Let's go over there next."
He squatted down, as if he was doing a horse stance, and jumped hard.
The next moment, his whole body soared into the sky, piercing out like a javelin, and shuttled to the other side of the forest!
Just five seconds later, accompanied by a roar, Cang Wei's calm voice once again spread throughout the forest: "Two people have been eliminated."
"Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding!" Bai Tao kept the posture of jumping down from the tree at any time, listening to Cang Wei's report, his face was extremely pale!
He looked up at the sky. Every few seconds, Lian Shou would shuttle through the air, relying on the powerful explosive power to leap to any place in the forest.
Every time he landed, several students would be eliminated!
In just two minutes, the number of eliminated people had reached ten!
He could jump from one end of the forest to the other with a light jump.
Those who fled to the edge of the forest did not have the hiding advantage they imagined.
On the contrary, the elimination number increased greatly because most people gathered at the edge.
Xu Ye's expression was not very good either. He just stared at the sky with a hint of nervousness in his heart.
"The direction is completely random, and the destination is completely random."
"Just relying on his own ideas and preferences, he can shuttle around the forest at will and eliminate anyone he perceives!"
"Is this what it means to test luck?"
Lian Shou's behavior seems to perfectly interpret the concept of "luck".
He is like a hunter holding a shotgun, pulling the trigger at will, and randomly killing the animals in front of him.
Whether the students scattered around the forest can survive depends entirely on luck!
If the luck is not good enough and they happen to be hit by Lian Shou's attack, they will definitely be eliminated!
"This... If this goes on, it's not safe to stay here at all!" Bai Tao looked anxious, and his eyes kept looking at the ground, as if looking for a direction to escape.
But Xu Ye on the side frowned, with a gleam in his eyes.
"But is this really just a simple luck test?"
From Lian Shou's casual jumping movements, it seems that he is really testing the students' luck.
Anyone who is "caught" by him will be eliminated almost in the next second.
And those who are not "caught" by him can be said to be lucky and survive by chance.
"Is the so-called hiding really useful?"
"Why does he eliminate people so quickly? Didn't the others hide well?"
Xu Ye put his ten fingers together and gently placed them on his eyebrows. Countless entries and clues flashed in his brain.
Among them, every word Lian Shou said when introducing the rules seemed to float in front of his eyes.
"Hide", "Catch people", "Ten minutes"...
In his ears, the information of eliminated people came one after another.
After another two minutes, the number of eliminated people increased greatly, and it was as high as 20 people.
The previous 80 people, now only 60 people!
This terrifying elimination rate made the students hiding everywhere panic, fearing that they would be the next to be eliminated.
Xu Ye suddenly felt annoyed, and felt that the voice announcing the elimination was so harsh.
"Wait, how many people were eliminated?"
Suddenly, he seemed to have caught something, and his eyes widened suddenly, "Could it be that this is the real purpose of this test?"
"If that's the case, perhaps..."
His eyes flickered, and he actually jumped down from the tree directly, and ran towards the direction where Lian Shou was without looking back.
Bai Tao, who had been ready to go, saw Xu Ye's action, and almost chased him at the same time, and asked anxiously: "Have you thought of anything?"
"Why run?"
Although he didn't know what Xu Ye wanted to do, he keenly felt that it seemed right to follow him.
"This is not just a test of luck!" Xu Ye's face was solemn, and he was running fast, as if he was racing against time.
"What does this mean?" Bai Tao was puzzled, and he didn't seem to understand what Xu Ye was saying.
"We were deceived by him!" At this moment, Xu Ye's body burst into a blood mist, and his speed increased a few points.
What's amazing is that under his acceleration, Bai Tao was able to follow him like a shadow, without any feeling of effort.
Xu did not pay attention to Bai Tao, but instead looked forward with a serious look, blurting out his conclusion.
"Remember that hint?"
"'Time is money'!"
"If you want to pass the test, how can you put all your hopes on luck!"
During the conversation, Lian Shou finally appeared in front of him.
At this moment, Lian Shou was ready to rush to another place.
As Xu Ye approached, he was still eliminating the students who were hiding.
But suddenly at this moment, his expression changed slightly and he raised his head.
"Did you find it so quickly?"
He smiled and looked forward.
Four figures almost simultaneously emerged from three directions of him, forming a horn and surrounding him.
Xu Ye saw the other two people rushing out, and his eyebrows raised.
Sure enough, there were other people who noticed the nature of this test and made the same choice as him!
"Why, you four, don't you plan to see how your luck is?"
Lian Shou smiled and looked at his side, with a relaxed expression.
"Although I think I'm lucky." Xu also relieved his boiling blood, his chest rose and fell slightly, but the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"But I don't want to pin my test results on such an illusory concept as luck."
"When making a choice, I often only choose the answer with the highest success rate."
"For me, I hope to control my own destiny."
He kicked away the gravel in front of him and looked forward: "Are you right, Instructor Lian Shou?"
