Several other Knight members were also facing the same situation as Wu Dingyuan.
Wen Meng was also stopped along the way. However, he was already in a dilemma before he could even see the other party.
As they were advancing, a large number of paper cranes suddenly descended from the sky. When the Qinghe University students behind him saw the paper cranes, their first reaction was to cheer. They did not know why there would be such wonderful paper cranes flying over here.
Only Wen Meng's expression changed. He did not expect the head of the Anjing House would actually come in person.
He asked loudly, "Is the Anjing House also trying to seize our Qinghe Satellite?"
But no one answered him. The paper cranes landed on the students' shoulders and would occasionally use their beaks to tidy up their wings. It was as though the folded paper cranes really had feathers on them.
Wen Meng said to the students in a low voice, "Don't touch them!"
But it was too late. A student had already reached out to touch the paper cranes on his shoulder out of curiosity. But when his finger touched one of the paper cranes, he immediately cried out in pain and retracted his finger.
His finger was bleeding profusely. He had actually been scratched by the edge of the paper cranes.
Wen Meng went over to check on it. Fortunately, it was only a scratch. The other party was warning him not to act rashly and had no intention of killing him.
The head of the Anjing House was still a very mysterious figure. No one knew what kind of person he was and only knew that his superpower was the paper cranes.
Wen Meng frowned. He understood that the other traveling Knight members were probably facing the same situation.
Abandon the students and head straight for Luoyang City? Wen Meng was in a dilemma. He was not sure if the other party would really kill the students.
He took out his satellite phone and called Lee Young-yoon. "I've been intercepted by the Anjing House, and there are more than 20 students with me."
He took out his satellite phone and called Lee Young-yoon. "I've been intercepted by the Anjing House, and there are more than 20 students with me."
Outsiders might not care about the rise and fall of Luoyang City, but Old Li and the others had grown up here, so they naturally hoped that Luoyang City would not be destroyed.
So if they started a war in the stronghold, who knew what kind of losses the stronghold would suffer? Since the other party had chosen to stall the Knight in the wilderness, they might as well let them be in a stalemate in the wilderness. The rest would be up to Old Li and the others.
The situation in Luoyang City was originally kept a secret. Many people did not know that Luoyang City was currently at the center of the vortex.
But slowly, more and more people began to pay attention to this place.
As a result, no one noticed a group of the Pyro Company's elites had suddenly set off for the Northern Plains.
These Pyro Company elites were extremely cautious in their actions. They did not even bring any supplies or entourage with them. Everyone in the group was a T3-ranked warrior or above, and there were ten T4-ranked commanders among them.
…
Ren Xiaosu skipped school for the entire day because of the incident at the welfare institute. However, in his mind, there was no such thing as skipping school. After all, Jiang Xu did not have any classes today.
However, Zheng Hang was in trouble. His class had a full schedule today. There were four periods in a day, and the four teachers were taking attendance in class. It was as if Zheng Hang had vanished from the face of the earth.
The students wanted to tell Zheng Hang the bad news, but they couldn't get through to him.
It wasn't that Zheng Hang had gone into hiding, but that Qin Sheng had cut off his cousin's phone line so that his happiness could last for a few more days …
After all, Ren Xiaosu was still using his cousin's student ID. It wouldn't be good if Zheng Hang were to let the cat out of the bag.
The next day, Ren Xiaosu went to class. The second period was Jiang Xu's Social Humanities and Politics class.
As usual, the students were the ones asking questions.
But this time, they did not ask about current affairs related to politics. Instead, they asked about what was happening in Luoyang City.
As a matter of fact, in just three days, there had been two intense battles between supernatural beings. The students could not figure out what was going on.
A girl asked, "Teacher, what exactly is happening in Luoyang City? Didn't you say that it wouldn't affect us?"
Jiang Xu said onstage, "I hope that all of you won't think that you're completely safe. Everything I say right now might cause you to panic. But one of you is right. Although this is an ivory tower, the culprit won't care about that."
Everyone was stunned. Which student told Jiang Xu that?
Jiang Xu smiled. "It was Classmate Zheng Hang."
Immediately, the entire class turned their attention to Ren Xiaosu. Meanwhile, Ren Xiaosu looked at Jiang Xu speechlessly. What was this old man doing? Why did he suddenly point him out?
This confused the students a little. Jiang Xu had even gone to look for Ren Xiaosu to have lunch with him. Could it be that Jiang Xu admired this kid?
But the other party was only there to help deal with the idle members of society who had been called out.
At this moment, Jiang Xu continued, "I suggest that all of you run in the direction of the garrison troops immediately if you find someone committing a crime on campus. Although the garrison troops might not be strong enough, it's still better than running around aimlessly."
Jiang Xu went back and thought about it carefully. He decided to listen to Ren Xiaosu's suggestion. Instead of just letting the students focus on their studies, he wanted to teach them how to avoid danger in this chaotic situation.
When these words came out of Jiang Xu's mouth, it undoubtedly brought some depression to the students. However, Jiang Xu felt that these students should know about these things.
In fact, what Jiang Xu wanted to say was that if they encountered someone committing a crime on campus, they should run to Ren Xiaosu's side. But he could not say that out loud.
"Teacher," a male student suddenly asked, "I read in today's Hope Media newspaper that the culprit was killed last night before the arrest was carried out. Is that true?"
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "It's true."
As he said that, his gaze drifted over to Ren Xiaosu. He only found out this morning that the person who killed the hostage was Ren Xiaosu.
But he could not tell the students about this either.
However, Jiang Xu explained, "There's also something wrong with that hostage. Didn't y 'all know that a supernatural being tripped a fugitive the day before yesterday? That fugitive was the hostage who was killed."
The students were stunned. They did not expect such a thing to happen.
After class, Jiang Xu waved to Ren Xiaosu again. "Zheng Hang, let's have lunch together."
The students watched quietly as Ren Xiaosu and Jiang Xu walked out. They did not know how to react. They could not accept that a person who was not part of society was actually valued so highly by Teacher Jiang Xu.
As Jiang Xu and Ren Xiaosu were walking together, he asked Ren Xiaosu, "I heard you didn't come to school yesterday?"
"Mhm." Ren Xiaosu told him about what happened at the orphanage.
But as he was speaking, the sound of an explosion rang out in the distance. Based on how the sound was transmitted, it should have come from more than five kilometers away from the school!
Immediately after, the screams and wails of the students could be heard coming from the campus. Ren Xiaosu turned around and saw some students running in all directions.
Ren Xiaosu and Jiang Xu looked at each other. The real free-for-all had begun.
