Chapter 19. Transformation in the Face of Disaster
When Mo Fan arrived at the school, he happened to run into Xue Musheng.
When the homeroom teacher, Xue Musheng, saw Mo Fan, he was overjoyed: "Mo Fan, it's you!"
"I escaped from the secret chamber of the Earthly Holy Spring and am currently near the school. There are still quite a few one-eyed demon wolves and giant-eyed blood rats attacking from all directions, so let's get out of here quickly," Mo Fan explained.
"I think so too, and we're already organizing an evacuation," Xue Musheng nodded solemnly.
"Brother Fan, it's so good to see you!" When Mo Fan and his companion came in, Zhang Xiaohou was so excited that his eyes almost turned red, as if he had seen a family member.
When people first encountered demons, many were so frightened they fainted.
Now, hundreds and thousands of demons have left behind corpses and pools of blood in the city where they live. Few people can remain calm, and many girls are already crying there.
For the students, all of this came too suddenly and too horrifying, and they didn't even know what was going on with their families.
"Ughhhhhh!!!"
A roar suddenly came from the basketball court at the foot of the hill. The students sitting near the window looked down and were horrified to see a one-eyed wolf leap down the hillside and stomp its agile body onto the basketball hoop.
The entire basketball hoop was stomped to the ground and smashed to pieces. The one-eyed wolf slowly raised its bloodshot eyes and stared greedily at the delicious-looking students in the classroom.
All that could be seen in those eyes was hunger and greed, and screams erupted from the girls throughout the school building!
"Demon...demon...demon!!!" The boy by the window, who was usually a very diligent student, said with a pale face.
Compared to the original Ghost Wolf Beast, this One-Eyed Demon Wolf was even more ferocious, and making one's scalp tingle when looking into its eyes was terrifying.
Seeing the students like this, Mo Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Not everyone has the courage to face demons.
Even though they had already gone through the experience once, it's important to know that there were still three groups of people who hadn't arrived during that training.
Most importantly, even the students in the top classes are terrified in this situation. Let alone those in other classes?
A one-eyed wolf or a giant-eyed rat would probably cause immense panic.
"Thunder Seal - Mad Strategy!"
A chanting sound came from the classroom. Mo Fan turned around and saw Xu Zhaoting angrily attack, with fierce lightning bolts bursting out from the air.
Under Xu Zhaoting's command, these purple lightning marks lashed wildly at the one-eyed demon wolf. Although their aim was somewhat lacking, many lightning marks still managed to hit the one-eyed demon wolf.
Arcs of electricity crisscrossed and alternated, each passing arc causing the one-eyed wolf to let out a painful growl, its muscles twitching under the force of the frenzied attack.
"Hmph, even a one-eyed demon wolf can scare them into such a cowardly state, what a bunch of weaklings!" Xu Zhaoting glanced disdainfully at the people who were fleeing in panic.
"That's right, with so many of us, are we afraid of those few one-eyed demon wolves?" Wang Sanpang also stood up.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Wang Sanpang completed his Earth Wave Technique in a mere 3 seconds.
His fat hands slammed into the classroom floor, and instantly a rock ripple traveled from the classroom all the way to the concrete playground. The one-eyed wolf, its muscles paralyzed, was violently slammed into another basketball hoop by the rapid transmission of the ground wave.
Zhou Min was quite bold, and quickly completed the fire-based star trail, leaving a ball of fire in her hand.
Before the one-eyed wolf even had a chance to get up, Zhou Min's fire splatter had already pierced through the flagpole of the teaching building and accurately hit the one-eyed wolf that was trapped under the basketball hoop!
The power of Fire-Bone Burning was naturally strong, instantly turning the basketball hoop into ashes. The one-eyed wolf howled in agony under the burning, rolling wildly on the playground.
Soon, several more spells of different types rained down from different locations. Judging from the skill level, they were obviously released by some practical course teachers. With their combined efforts, they quickly blasted the frenzied one-eyed wolf into a charred corpse!
Seeing the one-eyed wolf being quickly dealt with, Mo Fan felt a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a complex emotion encompassing both emotion and reflection).
For some people, even without their own special advantages, this is undeniably an opportunity for transformation.
The initially pretentious Mu Bai and the ordinary monkey didn't have particularly good magical talents, but they transformed themselves through repeated crises.
Xu Zhaoting is also good, it's a pity that this little fool died a bit too early.
However, since I'm here, such a thing naturally won't happen.
After killing a one-eyed demon wolf, Xue Musheng called over a few people to form a vanguard team.
To put it bluntly, the school's teachers are only at the initial stage of their training.
Moreover, they also need to cover the rear and face the demons behind them, so the only option is to form a vanguard team composed of outstanding students.
Mo Fan didn't hesitate and chose to join immediately.
While clearing the way ahead is dangerous, following a flock of'sheep' will actually increase the casualty rate.
As they evacuated, many people could be seen gathering here; clearly, they were all survivors.
When Xue Musheng saw these people, he told them that they were scouts and that the main force was behind them, and that everyone should follow.
The group of ten moved at a relatively fast pace, crossing the main street in front of the school gate in a straight line, and then passing through a pedestrian street and a residential area with elevators before they could see the safety barrier.
The main street is one kilometer long and is completely blocked by abandoned vehicles. It's impossible for school buses to pass, and even bicycles would have a hard time finding a smooth path.
Traffic was basically paralyzed, and the only way to get around was on foot. Three kilometers is neither a long nor a short distance, and no one could say for sure what would happen.
"There's a giant-eyed ape-rat at the newsstand up ahead," Zhang Yinglu said breathlessly as she ran back.
"It's gnawing on a child," Zhang Xiaohou added.
When they saw it, the child was already dead. Just seeing such a bloody scene was both horrifying and tragic.
Continuing forward, after bypassing a large bus blocking the street, you can immediately see the blood-stained newsstand and the ten-year-old boy lying in a pool of blood.
"Where's the giant-eyed ape?" Xue Musheng frowned, searching for the giant-eyed ape they had mentioned, but he couldn't find it.
"It clearly just now..."
"Coo coo coo!!!"
Just as Zhang Yinglu was about to speak, a mangy figure suddenly sprang out from behind a Volkswagen car next to them, its two large front teeth snapping at the unsuspecting Zhang Yinglu.
"Thunder Seal - Wrathful Strike!"
"Boom!!!"
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle"
Just as the giant-eyed rat pounced on Zhang Yinglu, lightning gathered in Mo Fan's hand and crashed down from the sky!
The giant, fanged rat was instantly paralyzed with excruciating pain and collapsed to the ground.
Zhang Yinglu was so frightened that she didn't dare to move.
"Wind Track - Flash Step!"
Fortunately, the monkey reacted quickly enough to reach her side and lead her away.
