Deities Are All Just My Food

Chapter 2527 - 1142: Parting Ways, Death Approaches! (2)

"I’ll give you one minute to think!"

After Lin Baici finished speaking, he took out the Antler Bone Flute from his pocket and blew it twice.

Toot! Toot!

A halo flashed.

The Reindeer Sleigh appeared.

Wow!

The whole crowd was astonished, this magical scene left many people dumbfounded.

"For those who don’t want to come with me, I’ll leave some food and water for you!"

Lin Baici retrieved a Black Tripod Bowl from his canvas bag and took out some boxes filled with mineral water and bread.

Then Lin Baici put on the Dog King’s Climbing Boots, donned the Bodhi Messenger’s Cassock, and tucked the Plumber’s Wrench at his lower back.

"Mingyuan, take this!"

Lin Baici handed Fang Mingyuan a knife.

"Where’s my weapon?"

Ji Xinyan glanced at Hua Yue Yu, who was also getting a weapon.

"Ordinary people using Taboo things might get contaminated!"

Lin Baici explained, nevertheless handing the Bronze Sword to Ji Xinyan: "Only use it as a last resort!"

"In short, use this sword sparingly!"

"Hmm!"

Ji Xinyan nodded, accepting the Dragon Tooth, and looked at it with curiosity.

"Old White, what about mine?"

Qian Jiahui rubbed his hands.

Lin Baici gave Qian Jiahui a Bronze Sword, something he brought back from the Qin Palace Divine Ruins. It wasn’t a Taboo thing but an antique that, despite being contaminated by God’s bones, remained razor-sharp after thousands of years.

It should suffice for hacking down a Dead Flesh Man.

"Have you made up your minds?"

Lin Baici was ready.

"I’ll go with you!"

Liu Zilu was very straightforward.

"Yan Yan, what do you think?"

Bai Jiao wanted to hear Ji Xinyan’s opinion.

"He’ll definitely follow the class leader!"

Tao Nai raised his hand: "Class leader, can I have a knife for self-defense?"

"None left!"

Lin Baici had no extra weapons, after all, he didn’t anticipate a day when the entire class would get trapped in God’s ruins.

"I’ll go with the class leader!"

Ji Xinyan had already decided; to live or die together.

"For you, time is life, so I have to set off now!"

Lin Baici glanced at his watch: "If you want to come along, then follow me!"

Lin Baici turned and left.

Hua Yue Yu, Ji Xinyan, Liu Zilu, Fang Mingyuan, and Qian Jiahui were the first to follow.

"Old Hu, what are you thinking?"

Fang Mingyuan saw Hu Wenwu still stationary and called out.

"I... I might become a burden to you!"

Hu Wenwu was worried.

"You could also become our hero!"

Lin Baici turned his head and encouraged, "No matter what choice you make, strive to survive!"

"Go, go, go!"

Zhang Zhixu urged everyone, "Old White certainly won’t hurt us, right?"

"Not necessarily!"

Liu Yu sneered, "In his heart, you’re definitely not as important as Ji Xinyan and Fang Mingyuan!"

Some students followed, while others stayed behind.

Lin Baici was liked, but not to the point that everyone followed him without question.

At times like this, who doesn’t have their own concerns?

Liu Yu was troubled; according to Fang Mingyuan’s praises, following Lin Baici should be the best choice. But the problem is, he had offended him before.

Damn!

Liu Yu was agitated.

But in a moment, he came up with a plan; with more people, Lin Baici might just put personal grudges aside, right?

Let’s bet on his pride.

"Move, following Old White is better than waiting here to die!"

Liu Yu called to the hesitant students.

"Liu Yu, you change your mind too easily!"

Lei Bo was disdainful.

"What are you going to do?"

The people around the boss sought his opinion.

"Nonsense, of course, follow them!"

The boss was afraid of being used as cannon fodder, so he wanted to bring as many people as possible: "Don’t hesitate, following him is the way to survive!"

Now the visibility in the dark mist was around a hundred meters. Many people on the platform hadn’t moved, watching Lin Baici and the others disappear from sight.

"Lei Zi, Old White is actually alright!"

His dorm mate Zhou Jing said consolingly.

"I know he’s alright, but will he save us first when facing the same danger?"

Lei Bo sighed, "Even those idiots Qian Jiahui and Fang Mingyuan might be prioritized over us!"

Lei Bo looked down on Qian Jiahui, or rather, envied him, and also had minor conflicts with Fang Mingyuan during their basketball game.

Zhou Jing was silent.

"Don’t worry, Lin Baici will definitely fight for Ji Xinyan; we can just take advantage."

Lei Bo looked around, "But we can’t stay here, let’s change places first!"

"Besides, we are top students, leaving Lin Baici doesn’t mean certain death for us, right?"

Lei Bo smiled confidently, "I’ve figured it out; that death roller coaster game, just watch the electronic billboard for the secret!"

"Hey buddy, can you spare some water and bread?"

Some men came over asking for supplies.

Zhou Jing immediately tensed up.

"Of course!"

Lei Bo wasn’t worried, as he had anticipated people would ask for supplies. After all, nobody knew how long they’d be here, so the more supplies, the better: "But we should form a team!"

"Don’t worry, I don’t mind women and children!"

Lei Bo had noticed that these people were with family, some even had strollers, which might be why they didn’t follow Lin Baici.

Family members couldn’t keep up physically.

Lei Bo planned to use the supplies Lin Baici provided to gather people, wait for a few hours, and if no rescue came, start surviving on their own.

"I’m a genius!"

Lei Bo thought his response was perfect, yet it wasn’t enough.

Lei Bo took proactive steps, seeking out men with families, because managing those with vulnerabilities would be easier.

Half an hour later, Lei Bo had become the leader of over a hundred people.

He felt it was enough: "Gather the supplies, let’s move!"

"Xiao Jing, see? Following Lin Baici, we’d just be nobodies, but here, we can call the shots!"

Lei Bo patted Zhou Jing’s shoulder, looking at his roommates, "In software engineering, Lin Baici isn’t the only outstanding one!"

Lin Baici had been on leave for too long, which allowed Lei Bo to build his influence.

If not for Lin Baici’s exceptional feats, generosity, and the goodwill from the girls, Lei Bo would have been the class leader.

"Everyone, take your things, let’s set off!"

Lei Bo commanded the group.

With over a hundred people, in this environment, he felt confident they could protect themselves. Those who wanted the supplies no longer dared to use threats, only to request.

The feeling...

It was amazing!

"Where are we going now?"

Zhang Hao took a sip of water, his head aching and feeling dizzy, like being on a bus for more than a day, motion-sick to the point of collapse.

"Let’s see how it goes!"

Lei Bo finished speaking when he heard exclamations from the crowd.

"What is that?"

"Looks like a ship?"

"Holy crap, a ship that flies in the sky?"

Lei Bo quickly looked up and saw a large ship floating in the air, sailing swiftly from the west.

"Pirate ship?"

Lei Bo frowned.

It was a medieval pirate ship, with dozens of oars extended on each side paddling vigorously, as if sailing on the sea.

The ship’s hull was covered in algae and barnacles, with a high-flying sail painted with a terrifying Skull Head emblem, and from the crow’s nest on the mast, shadows seemed to be peering through spyglasses at them.

But what frightened Lei Bo the most was a frame at the bow, with several hanging corpses swaying in the wind.

"Another kind of rule pollution?"

Lei Bo shivered, quickly calling out: "This way, run fast!"

Lei Bo could only pray that the pirate ship wasn’t interested in their group but aimed to plunder the platform instead.

There were more people there.

However, Lei Bo underestimated the pirate ship’s speed; it quickly sailed over their heads.

When the enormous shadow of the pirate ship, like a cloud, covered everyone, the dirty pirates shrieked, wielding cutlasses and flamethrowers, leaping down from the deck.

The scene was like a dumpling feast!

"It’s over!"

Zhou Jing was in despair; if only he’d followed Lin Baici!
