Led by Zhao Yuheng, a group of students rushed out of the cafeteria, while Leng Ran leisurely walked to the food pick-up area, took a new plate, and began to enjoy the buffet to himself.

This time, she noticed the waiter robot hidden in the shadows.

It was the same one who had been secretly observing her earlier.

His controller is the Thorn's AI, a Level 7 artificial intelligence called Rose.

He patted the waiter on the shoulder coldly: "Brother."

Rose was surprised. Could it be that even though she had done it so secretly, the boy in front of her had still discovered it?

Under her control, the waiter robot immediately put on a polite smile: "How can I help you?"

Leng Ran pointed to the various dishes: "The food is cold, could you please heat it up for me? Thank you."

Rose paused for a second. She thought Leng Ran had discovered her presence and was there to question her, but she didn't expect it to be about the food!

Waiter: "Okay, here you go, I'll heat it up for you."

Leng Ran stopped the waiter: "Wait a minute!"

Rose's heart skipped a beat again.

Leng Ran pointed to one of the empty buffet stoves: "The braised pork is all gone, can I have another plate?"

Today, she must have this piece of meat!

Rose: ...Is this what humans call a foodie?

Waiter: "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen to get your food right away."

While Leng Ran was enjoying his meal with great satisfaction, a new batch of freshmen on the third floor were regrouping.

Zhao Yuheng glanced at the number of people who had successfully joined them, and his heart sank slightly.

Only a very small number of freshmen managed to break through... and those who did were all strong and capable lone fighters! Many of them had gotten there by hanging out with the third-year students!

On the other hand, most of the third-year students were able to come out, and their group was five times the size of the first-year students!

The gap is too big.

Although he wasn't very optimistic, he didn't show it on his face and continued to act according to the original plan, following behind the third-grade students all the way to the first floor.

Just as he expected, five instructors wearing gray fog vests appeared in the corridor on the second floor.

Third-grade temporary commander Fang Yuan immediately ordered: "Teams one, two, and three, hold off the instructors; the rest of the teams, charge as normal."

Zhao Yuheng followed suit and gave the order: "Ignore the instructors, teams one through five go and help the third-year students fight against the robot guards. We need to get through here as soon as possible!"

Qin Yue, who was working hard, was quite surprised to see that the freshmen had stopped slacking off: "They actually came up to help. Weren't you just slacking off, trying to get fifty points?

Fang Yuan: "Not all the instructors have been mobilized yet. If they don't come to help soon, everyone might get surrounded here!"

The students ultimately prevailed due to their numerical advantage and successfully broke through to the central area of ​​the first floor. However, because the students failed to defeat the instructors in a short time, Fang Yuan was forced to leave three teams behind to hold off the instructors as much as possible and buy them time to rescue the hostages.

This is the crucial moment of the decisive battle.

The two long corridors run north and south, with one side being the battlefield for third-year students and the other for first-year students.

As expected, the north corridor, which belonged to the third grade, was now filled with instructors wearing gray fog vests!

Fang Yuan's expression was serious: "Wearing the Gray Mist armor, our enemies may not be just these instructors on the surface. Each team should leave one soldier on guard to prevent enemy ambushes!"

Zhao Yuheng was relatively relaxed, not because he had great confidence in the freshmen, but because he was keenly aware of the precarious situation of the third-year students.

If each team leaves someone on guard, the combat effectiveness on the main battlefield will be weakened. This team leader's tactics are a bit too conservative, or rather, too confident. I believe they can still complete the first rescue even with fewer people on the main battlefield!

Zhao Yuheng: "Two teams will surround and attack one robot. Take it down as soon as possible. Teams 15, 16, and 17 will be responsible for intercepting the robots that are attacking from the front. They will advance after the teams behind have dealt with the robots."

At the same time, he sent a telepathic message to Leng Ran: "Mo Li, it's time for you to take charge of the rear."

Leng Ran quickly finished his order: "Two minutes, I'll be right there."

The instructors and students who were fighting on the second floor could only see a black figure flash past them. The instructors wanted to intercept it, but the students held them tightly and they could not break free to chase after it.

Feeling full of energy after eating, Leng Ran nimbly bypassed the combat area on the second floor, activated her mental shield, and arrived at the central area on the first floor, hiding at the rear of the new recruits.

Her goal was to ensure that no instructors shrouded in gray mist would suddenly flank their group, launch a surprise attack from behind, and form a pincer movement with the robot guards.

Logically, the instructors should have all gone to intercept the third-grade students, but there are always exceptions.

For example, Instructor Lin, who never follows the rules.

Suddenly, the suspended elevator in the central area emitted a faint light, the elevator doors opened, and a group of instructors shrouded in gray mist walked out of the doors.

Instructor Song: "Old Lin, are you really going to deal with those freshmen all by yourself?"

"Ugh, they're all just level four brats. We just checked the security footage, and the toughest one was still eating in the cafeteria." Instructor Lin gritted his teeth. "He has no ambition whatsoever, all he does is eat all day."

Instructor Song: "Alright, then the freshmen are yours to take care of. Brothers, let's go have some fun with the third-year students!"

Leng Ran, who was hiding in the shadows, overheard all of these conversations.

As predicted by both commanders, the instructors still chose to encircle them, attempting to annihilate them on the spot.

As luck would have it, the instructors had just come out of the monitoring room and happened to miss the scene of Leng Ran leaving the cafeteria, which gave Instructor Lin the confidence to take on all the freshmen.

Watching the other instructors walk away, Leng Ran held his breath. Just as Instructor Lin was about to enter the south corridor, Leng Ran suddenly appeared behind Instructor Lin, his right hand forming a claw, aiming for his throat!

Instructor Lin reacted quickly, grabbing Leng Ran's hand before she could touch his neck, trying to throw her away!

Leng Ran's hand was restrained, and he kicked Instructor Lin in the lower back, forcing the other to let go in order to avoid it.

When Instructor Lin released her, Leng Ran deftly spun around, blocking Instructor Lin's path and creating distance between them once again.

Instructor Lin then recognized the person who attacked him. Seeing Leng Ran, he didn't get angry but laughed instead: "Well, you little brat, if you're not going to eat your food, why are you here joining in the fun?"

He smiled coldly: "I didn't want to come either, but I had no choice... I was afraid they'd run into Lao Liu."

Instructor Lin, feeling slighted, said: "Don't want to come? Then move aside, I'll go over and take care of your teammates, then we won't need you."

“You can’t go there, Instructor Lin. I promised to guard their rear.” Leng Ran’s smile vanished, and he assumed a fighting stance. “I keep my word. I, Mo Li, will never break my promise.”
