Chapter 323: Chapter 323: Su Wan Feels Uneasy
Su Wan felt a bit uneasy.
She always had the feeling that something was about to happen.
Right at that moment, the ground began to tremble only slightly.
It was no different from the presence of a C-class Insect Beast.
Su Wan looked up and saw several of her companions, all appearing very calm.
"Do you feel that? The ground is trembling," she said.
"No."
"I don’t feel anything."
Lastly, Su Wan’s gaze fell on Bai Qi, the reticent junior, who also shook his head.
Bai Qi said, "Could it be that a larger Insect Beast has appeared?"
Sheng An said, "Xiaowan, should I fly out to take a look? Could it be that a large swarm of Insect Beasts has come?"
Su Wan almost agreed with Sheng An.
The next moment, she shook her head and said, "No, some Insect Beasts can fly as well. It might be even more dangerous for you to fly out recklessly."
After looking around her, Su Wan said, "Let’s pack up and leave this place."
"Alright!"
Currently, their Empire University’s points were far ahead, unattainable for any other school.
Moreover, the corpses of the Insect Beasts were too numerous here, attracting more and more of them.
Indeed, it was not a place to stay for long.
Su Wan stood on the highest protruding terrace, looking out at the abandoned city enveloped in the night.
The sense of unease in her heart grew stronger.
Su Wan said, "Vermilion Bird, do you think I might be overthinking things?"
Vermilion Bird said, "Perhaps it’s the intuition of a Super S-class Beastman. Usually, the higher the level of Beast Transformation, the more sensitive they become."
Su Wan said, "But this Virtual Hunting Ground isn’t supposed to have any especially large dangers."
She remembered that the level of the Insect Beasts in this hunting ground definitely would not exceed S-class.
Because if it did, even if they grouped together, they would not be able to defeat it.
The five-person team from Empire University swiftly moved to the northeastern corner, where there were comparatively fewer Insect Beasts.
All of a sudden, Sheng An said to Su Wan, "Xiaowan, Yuanyi University’s points are increasing rapidly! If they continue at this pace, they’ll catch up to us before the competition ends!"
Both Pandora and Alex looked towards them earnestly.
It was clear that these two hadn’t had their fill of killing bugs yet.
The unease in Su Wan’s heart was gradually expanding.
She said, "No, we’ll stay put for now. Also, remember, if a situation arises that we can’t control, everyone must log off immediately!"
The others were taken aback.
Even Sheng An was somewhat puzzled.
Su Wan turned her head to look again at the dark sky.
She said, "Do you remember what Director Gu said? All of you must follow my orders! If the time comes, we log off collectively, without wasting a single second!"

Lan Ruojin sat up from the virtual pod, feeling a bit dizzy.
Lan Yurou, the team’s coach, asked anxiously, "Xiaojin, are you alright?"
Lan Ruojin shook his head, "Auntie, I’m fine. What about the others?"
Lan Yurou’s expression turned grim, "The rest are okay, but Xiaorui hasn’t come out yet."
Lan Ruojin asked, "What exactly happened?"
Lan Yurou revealed, "It’s Lucifer, the Star Thief Leader who is wanted by the entire Universe Alliance."
Lan Ruojin was stunned.
At Training Base Star’s main control room.
Leanna was looking worried, "General Adolf, the kids from our school haven’t come out yet. Why isn’t the security team going in to rescue them?"
Anthony frowned, "Leanna, I can’t believe you’re a lieutenant colonel. Can’t you be more composed? We only have one student missing, but students from the other three schools are all still inside!"
Leanna, who is more worried than you!
Remembering Gill being swept away by a giant tentacle, Leanna’s brows furrowed.
Gu Lei looked at the screen and said, "Now, the giant octopus has reached Yuanyi University’s side, I hope those kids will decide to log off decisively."
Andrew, "Li Rui has also taken people over there!"
Everyone watched the scenes inside the screen nervously.
The security team led by Li Rui first encountered the students from Davis University.
Li Rui, "Qian Kang, you and your classmates must log off immediately. The danger level in the Virtual Hunting Ground is not something you students can handle right now."
Qian Kang, "So, that’s the reason why Siren University and Prys University were eliminated with so many players so instantly?"
Li Rui nodded.
Qian Kang turned back and discussed with his classmates, none of whom wanted to log off just like that.
But they, the people from Davis University, were the most rational.
Continuing to stay now, there was no way to catch up with Empire University and Yuanyi University.
If they logged off at this moment, it seemed it wouldn’t make much difference from sticking it out to the end.
A few minutes later, Qian Kang and five other students from Davis University agreed to log off directly.
Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief.
Their primary task was to first ensure the safety of the children from the five universities.
He asked the Interstellar Warrior beside him, "Is there any detection of heat sources, have other students been located?"
"Yes, in the central direction, there are a large number of heat sources. It’s likely there are students fighting Insect Beasts over there."
"Good, let’s head over!"
Before entering the Virtual Hunting Ground, Li Rui heard that the team led by Su Wan from Empire University was right in the middle of the hunting ground.
Her team had killed a large number of Insect Beasts.
So that place must be them!
But actually, Li Rui guessed wrong.
Su Wan had already led her team to retreat from there, and the students from Yuanyi University, eager to catch up in points, happened to retake that central location.
The large quantity of Insect Beast corpses attracted even more Insect Beasts.
The students from Yuanyi University fought more fiercely as they killed!
At this rate, in another hour, they would be able to catch up to Empire University!
Just then, the ground began to tremble suddenly!
A huge octopus, leading many Insect Beasts, charged towards them!
"Oh my god, what is that?"
A few students were stunned.
Jiang Yuan squinted his eyes and then checked the grade of the bugs on his brain-computer!
"The heat source indicates that there is a presence exceeding S-class among these Insect Beasts..."
"That’s impossible!"
"So should we log off now?"
If there really was the existence of Insect Beasts exceeding S-class.
The most rational course of action for them was to log off en masse.
Jiang Yuan checked the data situation of the school teams on his brain-computer.
They were just a little short of catching up to Empire University!
A student said, "Could this be a test for us?"
Jiang Yuan finally clenched his teeth, "We rush in, take away as many bugs as we can! If something seems amiss, immediately log off!"
"Okay!"
Central control room.
Anthony breathed a sigh of relief; their students from Davis University had all retired intact.
He looked at Jiang Haoqing beside him, who was still silent and frowning.
Actually, Anthony could understand the decision of the students from Yuanyi University.
Because if you were about to succeed in a mission, no one would want to give up so easily.
However, compared with these children, what shocked Anthony the most was Su Wan from Empire University!
That girl had incredibly terrifying intuition!
