disaster strikes

Chapter 20 Investigator Jack

Instructor Qinghong still came to the classroom on time as before.

After looking around at everyone for a week, she also saw Du Qingqing who was thrown out of the classroom by herself. After counting the number of people and confirming that there were 13 people, she said calmly, "Let's go."

Immediately, everyone followed Teacher Qinghong and left the classroom.

Every day in the Trial of the Starved Ghost at the Distressed River Disaster College, a class would enter the mission portal under the stele, so the people in the square had already seen it.

Qing Hong has been bringing these 13 people to the portal of the square.

"Okay, I have entered your numbers into the optical brain system, and you will jointly complete the starving ghost trial in a mission world, and this is the portal for the Scourgers from the Distressed River gathering place to go out to perform missions, It is also the most important place for you to grow up in the future."

She seemed to see everyone's nervousness.

"Don't worry, you just need to use what you have learned in the academy, go all out to complete the summoner's mission, and grab as many resources as possible in the process, the optical brain data chip will give you the corresponding hint."

As she spoke, she even patted everyone on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

"You just need to remember, don't regard the outside world as a disaster world, everything outside is just a task, now you can go in."

The light blue vortex of the portal seems to possess a magical power.

After the students in front entered one by one, Chen Mo also took a deep breath, took the last step, and entered the portal.

He felt that his body was suddenly surrounded by a strong air current.

Tip: Confirm the identity of the starved ghost trainee as a tester.

Hint: wait to be called.

Hint: Spot the Summoner.

Tip: The optical brain is collecting language data and clothing camouflage data.

Tip: The space-time coordinates are being determined, waiting to cross the space-time barrier, and the target hive world.

Accompanied by a strong sense of oppression, before Chen Mo could react, he felt as if his body was being pulled into a noodle, and then a bright blue light flashed, as if traveling through a long tunnel of time and space, Immediately, he appeared on the deck of a small boat rickety in the sea.

"here is?"

A gray night sky with dark clouds covering the stars and the moon.

There was a faint salty smell in the air.

After Chen Mo struggled to stand up from the deck, he stroked the metal fence on the edge of the boat deck, looked at this small yacht floating in the sea, and couldn't help being dazed.

At this moment, he even had an illusion, as if he had returned to the previous world.

The others also staggered up from the deck, showing different emotions such as excitement, confusion, vigilance, and worry, and instinctively looked around, observing this foreign world that was completely different from the living environment of the disaster world.

On the deck of the boat, under the feet of everyone, there were still some ashes, but they were quickly blown away by the sea wind.

"Cough, cough, cough."

The weak cough brought everyone back to their senses.

This is a blond and blue-eyed young capable man, wearing jeans, but at this moment, his left abdomen is bleeding profusely, and there are large areas of burns on his body, and he looks like he may fall into a coma at any time.

"I am Jack, an international investigator from the Western Continent. I am in charge of jointly investigating the disappearance of a supernatural person and a martial artist. On this mysterious island, my companions and I were attacked by unknown forces. May have been killed, and I can no longer continue to complete the task now."

Jack paused, coughing up some blood.

"Your mission is to continue to investigate the truth about the disappearance of the supernatural beings and martial arts masters on this small island on my behalf, and pass the relevant information to other international investigators from the Western Continent who will come here three days later."

At this time, Chen Mo's optical brain data chip also gave a corresponding prompt for the task.

Reminder: This mission is to investigate the truth about the disappearance of the supernatural beings and martial arts masters, and it will last for three days.

Tips: 30 natural disaster contribution points will be obtained after completing the task, and 90 natural disaster contribution points will be deducted if the task fails. Those who do not have enough natural disaster contribution points will be eliminated and recycled.

Every natural disasterr knows what the elimination and recycling prompted by the optical brain data chip means. In the barren disaster world, the powerful laws of time and space will not let go of any quality, including the corpses of natural disasterrs.

Chen Mo, Han Xue, Ku Wu, Tao Zi, the four of them have naturally stood together.

After getting the relevant task reminder, Chen Mo looked at the three of them, and the three of them also nodded one after another, obviously they all got the relevant reminder.

"Ahem, I am seriously injured now. I must leave here immediately and go back for treatment. I can't stay here any longer. You should leave here as soon as possible and go to perform the mission."

Following Jack's words, Chen Mo actually received the chip reminder again.

Tips: Please leave the ship within 30 seconds, otherwise it will be regarded as a mission failure and the countdown will start.

Tip: 30 seconds.

Tip: 29 seconds.

After being prompted by the optical brain data chip, everyone became flustered and naturally entered a tense rhythm.

"See the island?"

"It's too dark to see anything!"

"I found it, over there!"

Although the sky was very dark, everyone quickly determined the direction of the island.

According to a rough estimate, the small boats that everyone is in at the moment are at least 600 meters away from the island. Fortunately, there is not too much wind and waves here, and the temperature is not low.

Tip: 18 seconds.

Tip: 17 seconds.

Seeing that the countdown countdown in the chip reminder is getting less and less, and the bloody reminder number is like a devil urging their lives, everyone dare not stay any longer, and they all jumped down in the chaos and jumped into the sea water.

And the moment Chen Mo left the boat, the countdown on the optical brain data chip ended.

The temperature of the sea water is not cold, even a little warm.

Survival instinct made everyone who jumped into the sea swim towards the coast with all their strength.

As long as the direction is confirmed, Chen Mo feels that with his physical strength, it should not be a big problem to swim this distance to the shore.

"Help, I can't swim..."

I don't know who was yelling in panic from behind, and the sea water was quickly poured into his mouth, leaving only a whining sound.

Swimming is almost one of the basic instincts of every Scourger, just like walking, almost no one will take this matter as a problem, even the former stone, because in the memory of the stone, he, nectar and monkey three Man, one of my favorite pastimes as a child was to swim in the Distress River.

At a time like this, naturally no one would try to rescue that unlucky guy.

Otherwise, according to common sense, drowning people will try their best to grab life-saving straws, and here is a full 600 meters away from the coast, and the result will likely be two people drowning together.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Panting, Chen Mo finally swam to a beach.

The speed of the others was also about the same. They waded through the sea one after another and came to the beach. It was just because of their different physical strength, some people still had enough energy left, while others were already exhausted.

The size of this island does not seem to be small.

The depths of the island are covered with vegetation. It seems that because of being in the tropics, the vegetation is quite lush, and some of the giant trees are tens of meters high.

After resting for a while, the panting gradually stopped, and everyone gathered together again.

Because of the darkness, everyone couldn't identify each other very well, so they could only get close to each other to confirm each other.

"Who didn't follow?"

It was Lu Yi who asked the question, and there was a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Hmph, I'm still alive."

In the darkness, there was a sneering voice from Kunai, of course he knew what was going on in Lu Yi's mind.

"Charcoal, it's charcoal that can't swim!"

Du Fangyan yelled in horror.

You must know that Charcoal has been making suggestions all this time. I didn't expect that he couldn't swim, and he had just entered this mission world, so he drowned in such a daze.

What should I and my sister do now?

"You keep your voice down!"

Lu Yi lowered his voice, and said hysterically: "Didn't you hear what Jack said, he was attacked on this island, do you want to die here? If you want to die, I will kill you myself!"

Du Fangyan was so frightened that he covered his mouth. Judging from the ferocious expression of the other party, it was obvious that he was not joking.

Du Qingqing, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help sobbing, but also didn't dare to make a sound.

"The trial has already begun, what do you think?"

A calm voice came, it was Gao Shu.

And the person he questioned was Lei Wu who had hardly talked to the students in the class for more than three months!

But compared to his usual aloofness, Lei Wu has a serious expression at the moment.

And judging from his clothes, it seems that he has already put on the equipment, and the small magic wand in his hand exudes a strong energy atmosphere.

"Since it is an investigation, of course we have to go deep into the interior of this small island to investigate. Although this task seems to have no clue, what is certain is that our next activity space will be limited to this small island. In this way As a result, the external factors we can use will be reduced, but in contrast, the variables of the enemy will also be much less, this is indeed a very suitable task scenario for the starving ghost trial."

Lei Wu's words are actually more than what Chen Mo has heard him say in the past three months.

Obviously he is not a quiet person, but he is not interested in the students in the class, or disdains to socialize with everyone.

"How are we working together?"

Gao Shu said confidently: "You should also know the strength of the five of us. If we cooperate, the probability of successfully completing the task will be much greater."

Hearing Gao Shu's persuasive words, Kunai showed a nervous look.

The strength of the five-person group is already very strong. If Lei Wu also joins in, once the task can be successfully completed, then I am afraid that he will be punished next.

However, Lei Wu said indifferently: "It depends on the situation!"

Fortunately, Lei Wu didn't agree immediately, and Ku Wu was relieved, but he couldn't help but be careful.

However, he is not a smooth-tongued person, so he can only worry in his heart.

"Be quiet."

Lu Ye, one of the adult group of five, seemed to have discovered something. Looking towards the dark bushes deep in the island, he said cautiously, "There seems to be movement inside."

The crowd suddenly quieted down.

Pairs of eyes, fixedly staring at the direction of the bushes.

Just when everyone wondered if Lv Ye had heard it wrong, Tian Tian immediately realized, pointed in a certain direction and said, "Over there!"

Everyone heard the words and immediately entered a state of alert.

In the direction Tiantian pointed, a group of men in black came out of the jungle. There were more than a dozen of them, more than Chen Mo and his party.

Although there is still some distance between the two sides at this moment, and they cannot see each other clearly in the night, it is not difficult to see their hostility from the fierce pace of this group of people.

Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of branches snapping in the bushes.

A guy who is far bigger than the other men in black, a fat man who weighs at least 250 kilograms, is wearing a rather restrained black suit, and seems to be bursting out of this suit at any time, and appears behind the group of men in black up.

When things came to an end, it was a lie for Chen Mo to say that he was not nervous.

He had already drawn out his bronze short sword, and made a close combat posture.

At this moment, he is really glad that he has prepared this bronze dagger in advance, otherwise, in this kind of place where there are no stones and similar hard objects, the power of mind cannot be attached to attack, and he has no means of attack, so he can only use his bare hands or rely on E-level skills Mind Bomb, a long-range attack every five seconds.

Everyone else was also a little nervous.

These men in black, apparently because Jack had already conducted a preliminary investigation on the island before, and even started a sabotage relationship during the period, regarded them as enemies and Jack's accomplices.

Of course, they were also accomplices.

"Woooo."

At this time, Du Qingqing couldn't restrain her fear anymore, her legs went limp, she collapsed on the beach, and cried out.

Du Fangyan on the side was not much better.

His legs were trembling constantly, he hid behind everyone, he even forgot to comfort his sister, his mind went blank, he didn't know what to do.
