Global Collapse

Chapter 455 Oligo

It turns out that children are creatures that are very easy to wake up once they fall asleep.

Before Gu Mian could even make a saw cut into the neck of the nine-headed infant, the little green devil suddenly opened its eyes; it had woken up.

Gu Mian didn't know how a normal baby would react when they opened their eyes and saw a saw above their head, but the child in front of her immediately jumped off the bed and ran away after seeing the chainsaw above his head.

Its speed was so fast that it seemed to have foreseen its fate, and judging from its practiced movements, it must have practiced several times.

Gu Mian watched as the bright green little devil jumped off her bed and rushed towards the window, through the closed curtains, and then broke through the glass window.

Gu Mian first heard the sound of glass breaking, and then she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

There seemed to be a very soft gasp coming from downstairs.

When he reached the window, the green-clad child had vanished.

Gu Mian leaned against the window, staring at the ground: "The creditor has run away."

At this moment, the fat man had already reached Gu Mian's side: "This is the first time in my life that I've seen debt collectors run away faster than debtors... By the way, Doctor, did you hear any other sounds just now?"

Gu Mian nodded: "I heard it, someone called out, it's downstairs."

However, there isn't a soul in sight below.

Throwing objects from high-rise buildings is not a legal act, so it's understandable that it might frighten passersby.

However, their location was quite remote, and players rarely wandered around in remote areas at night, so Gu Mian felt that the sound just now might have been directed at them.

Perhaps someone was secretly observing them, but was scared half to death by the nine-headed baby that burst out of the window.

Although the Nine-Headed Baby was a child, it looked like a ghost no matter how you looked at it, and the people below never expected that someone would throw a ghost out of the window.

The fat man also realized something was wrong: "Although we don't know how we were targeted, shouldn't we take some action now? It would be troublesome if they rushed up to rob us in the middle of the night."

Gu Mian glanced at the fat man: "You would rob someone who throws a ghost out of the window in the middle of the night?"

The fat man seriously considered Gu Mian's question, and finally silently shook his head.

Moreover, there are two ghosts in their house now, which are good helpers in guarding the house and the door.

Although I don't know why these two ghosts ignored the Nine-Headed Baby, is it because it looks healthy and harmless because it is green?
Gu Mian stroked her chin: "We can't stay here for too long. At the latest, we can leave after the college entrance examination activities tomorrow. Let's stay here for one more night."

However, the hole that the nine-headed infant had created was rather large, and a gust of wind was blowing into it.

Gu Mian considered for a moment, then picked up Xiao Hong, who was holding her phone, and placed her on the windowsill to block the hole.

"Xiao Hong is so kind." Gu Mian praised Xiao Hong as she pulled the covers up and drifted off to sleep.

However, he was awakened by several loud car horns not long after he fell asleep. Nowadays, not many people can afford to drive cars, so car horns are rarely heard.

For a moment, Gu Mian thought his family's hearse was making a sound, but he quickly realized something was wrong.

The sound of this car horn is different from the sound of their hearse.

Gu Mian threw off the covers and got out of bed. At this moment, Xiao Hong was still sitting on the windowsill not far from him, staring at him expectantly.

He went to the window and looked down, then saw a bright yellow... bus parked downstairs?

Gu Mian immediately recognized the bus. "Is it a school bus?" He rubbed his eyes and stared downstairs for a while; it was indeed a school bus.

Immediately, the loudspeaker on the roof of the school bus emitted a different sound: "Players who have obtained exam permission, please board the bus immediately. The school bus will take you to the exam location. Please note that this is a one-way trip, so please be prepared in advance..."

It means it's a one-way trip, but not a return trip. I didn't expect that this time I wouldn't be directly teleported into the event.

They hadn't made any preparations, and within minutes they boarded the bright yellow school bus. During this time, the fat man went to put away his family's hearse.

The residents nearby seemed not to hear the school bus at all; the loudspeaker had been blaring for so long, yet not a single person peeked out to join in the commotion.

It's worth mentioning that there was no one on the school bus; they seemed to be the first passengers.

The driver in the driver's seat looked like an ordinary NPC. He glanced at Gu Mian and the others when they got into the car; Gu Mian wondered if it was just her imagination, but the driver stiffened for a moment when he saw her.

Gu Mian and her group quickly settled into a corner at the back. The driver in the driver's seat glanced at them silently a few times, then suddenly pulled out a sign—"No Fighting."

Then I placed it on the front of the car.

Gu Mian touched her face: "Do I look like I like fighting?"

The fat man turned his head to the side: "Doctor, I think he probably meant to prohibit unilateral beatings of the driver."

Gu Mian: "..."

When the group got into the car, Xiao Hong also mingled with them, and the driver did not make things difficult for this plain-looking female ghost.

As for his brother, he was originally just a CD, but now Gu Mian has flattened him and stuffed him in her pocket.

The school bus moved very fast and could easily pass through different types of obstacles, maintaining a straight line all the way.

The fat man sat in the window seat, but he couldn't even see the shadows of the scenery outside. He only felt the car rushing forward, but he couldn't see how it was passing through obstacles.

To avoid scaring other passengers, Gu Mian disguised Xiao Hong before boarding the bus, putting on the black-rimmed glasses she wore during the dragon boat activity and covering the lower half of her face with a mask.

If you cover your face, you're not too bad looking, but Little Red doesn't have a player panel.

If other players later try to open the player panel of this somewhat ugly woman, they will be surprised to find that she does not have that thing.

“I guess the school bus picks up people according to their ranking,” Chu Changge next to him pushed up his glasses. “So we were in the first batch to get on the bus. This bus looks like it can only carry about thirty people. There should be quite a few other school buses.”

So, this vehicle is carrying only the top 30 players.

As they were talking, the car stopped. Gu Mian looked out the window and saw that the scenery outside had completely changed. They were now parked in front of an apartment building that was at least twenty stories high.

The loudspeaker on the roof started repeating what Gu Mian had heard not long ago, something like "no return."

Gu Mian felt that this idiom was not a good omen at all; it sounded unlucky. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved, since he had never had any good omens in his life anyway.

Only one player boarded the bus this time, a quiet young man. After boarding, he immediately looked at Gu Mian and the others sitting in the last corner, then looked away and sat in the first row, the furthest away from them.

"This is second place," the fat man whispered, "and only one person?"

“Maybe it’s because my teammates gave up on the college entrance exam activities,” Gu Mian stroked her chin. “Participating in two events where there’s a real chance of death in a row would naturally make them nervous.”
