249 Divine Light Power, Something’s Wrong With Jiang Shangbai (2)
Lu Yan pondered for a moment before shaking his head. “No, we can’t head out. We have to go towards the tall tower in the center.”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before looking towards the tall tower in the Abandoned City.
That was the tallest building in the Abandoned City. However, in the current situation of the Abandoned City, was it normal for them to run towards the center instead of running out?
Just as everyone was hesitating, a red signal flare rose from the area outside the Abandoned City.
As this signal flare rose, various colored signal flares began to rise continuously. Moreover, they were all rising in the direction of the area outside Abandoned City.
Everyone’s expressions suddenly changed. Bai Miao said in a low voice, “Looks like it’s as Lu Yan guessed. The area near the Abandoned City has become dangerous.”
With so many signal flares rising, it was obvious that there was some danger preventing the new students of the Abandoned City from escaping.
“Let’s go to that tower first. Although the dark power there is the densest, according to the area where the Earth Dragon Snake appeared, that should be the safest place now.”
With that said, Lu Yan directly headed towards the tower.
Bai Miao, Li Mei’er, and the other participating new students of the Golden Corner Academy did not hesitate and directly followed.
Song Qingge and the others looked at each other. Then, they quickly followed Lu Yan and the others.
Along the way, everyone was silent, their moods relatively heavy. After all, the current situation was a little too complicated.
At this moment, signal flares rose not far from the high platform in front of them.
A yellow flare.
These yellow signal flares rose in an orderly manner, as if they were queuing up to be released.
A participating new student of Demon City University said in horror, “Could it be that the location of the tower is also dangerous? We can’t approach?”
Lu Yan did not stop advancing and said without turning around, “Those yellow signal flares rose very orderly. Clearly, they didn’t encounter any danger. Moreover, there were so many of them. They probably want to tell the participating new students of the surrounding universities to approach. They’re probably also a university team that discovered the abnormality of the abandoned city.”
Song Qingge nodded. “That should be the case. I’ve seen this yellow signal flare before. It’s from Qingbei University. Let’s go and meet up with them first.”
Lu Yan nodded. Coincidentally, they could meet the other party on the way to the tower. They would first ask if the other party had any new information.
Lu Yan and the others began to increase their strength and quickly approached the place where the yellow signal flare rose.
In front of him, a large number of participating new students of Qingbei University were indeed gathered.
Jiang Shangbai and Luo Qiushan were communicating in the crowd.
Seeing Lu Yan and the others arrive, the two of them turned around, and Luo Qiushan revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.
Jiang Shangbai also smiled and was not too surprised.
Luo Qiushan looked at Lu Yan and the others and welcomed them. “Lu Yan, Song Qingge, I didn’t expect you to be the first to rush over.”
Lu Yan looked at Luo Qiushan and his eyes flickered slightly. “Looks like you’ve also discovered the abnormality of the Abandoned City.”
Luo Qiushan nodded and pointed at the sky above. “The sky above the Abandoned City is enveloped by this black fog. The teleportation scroll has also lost its effect. However, Jiang Shangbai has made a new discovery, so we released a signal flare to gather the participating new students.
Jiang Shangbai?
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and his gaze landed on Jiang Shangbai behind him.
Lu Yan had always felt somewhat uncomfortable with this guy. His impression of him was far inferior to Song Qingge.
Looking at the smile on his face, Lu Yan felt that it was somewhat fake.
At this moment, Jiang Shangbai also walked over and greeted Lu Yan and Song Qingge.
“Jiang Shangbai, Luo Qiushan just said that you made a new discovery. What discovery?”
Hearing Lu Yan’s question, Jiang Shangbai pondered for a moment and then said, “I just discovered this too. I’m not sure yet.”
“I believe you all know the abnormality of the Abandoned City. From the black fog in the sky, I sensed an extremely dense dark power. However, in the tower not far ahead, I sensed a hidden divine light aura.”
“You also know that I’m a holy knight and am very sensitive to the divine light aura.”
“Abandoned City was previously a place for the dark-born. Now that such a situation has happened, I suspect that it might be related to the methods left behind by the dark-born to escape Abandoned City.”
“The divine light aura sensed on the tower is very likely our life-saving straw. After all, the thing that restrains dark power the most is the divine light power.”
Hearing Jiang Shangbai’s words, many of the surrounding new students smiled.
After all, they were still confused previously. Now, Jiang Shangbai’s words at least gave them a goal.
Divine light aura?
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Shangbai in front of him and frowned slightly. Although Jiang Shangbai spoke logically, Lu Yan kept feeling that something was wrong.
Raising his eyebrows, Lu Yan thought of what was wrong.
That was, this Jiang Shangbai seemed to know too much.
The black fog above the Abandoned City had not formed for long. Even if he and Song Qingge were not the first to discover the abnormality of the Abandoned City, they were definitely among the first.
However, they had no clue now. This Jiang Shangbai had already sensed a divine light power that could be used as a life-saving straw from the tower.
Of course, this was only Lu Yan’s confusion. Perhaps this Jiang Shangbai was really abnormally sensitive to the divine light power and was lucky enough to discover this divine light power.
Of course, Lu Yan was naturally more vigilant now that he was suspicious of Jiang Shangbai.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s directly enter the tower and obtain this divine light power first.” A participating new student of Demon City University said excitedly.
In his opinion, since they had discovered such power, it was naturally best to obtain it first.
Jiang Shangbai whispered when he heard this, “That tower is an unexplored area. There might be danger inside. It’s better to wait for the new students of the other universities to rush over before entering the exploration together.”
Hearing Jiang Shangbai’s words, the participating new student of Demon City University hurriedly nodded. “That’s right, that’s right. There’s strength in numbers. It’s better to explore together with more people.”
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Shangbai and did not speak. He waited quietly.
Bai Miao arrived beside Lu Yan and asked softly, “Can this Jiang Shangbai’s words be trusted?”
After all, Bai Miao had experienced life and death and was still sensitive to certain things. This Jiang Shangbai made her feel that something was wrong.
Lu Yan whispered, “In any case, be careful of this Jiang Shangbai. However, we’re also going to the tower. Why don’t we go together? There’s strength in numbers. It’s also beneficial for us to have more people. At the very least, if there’s a problem with Jiang Shangbai, we’ll have more shields.”
Lu Yan’s words were very cold-blooded. However, at this moment, other than his university classmates, Lu Yan did not take the lives of the new students of the other universities very seriously, even if it was the lives of Song Qingge, Luo Qiushan, and the others.
In fact, in the Golden Corner Academy, other than Bai Miao and the others who were relatively close to him, Lu Yan also would not care much about Liu Hu and the others.
If he encountered danger, he would save them if he could. If he could not, he would decisively abandon them.
As everyone waited, participating new students from other universities also rushed over one after another. Most of them sensed the abnormality of the abandoned city.
Every time a group of new students came, Jiang Shangbai would repeat his previous words and let them wait quietly.
After a while, many new students from many universities had already gathered here. There were more than 200 participating new students.
“Alright, it seems that the others won’t be able to come over for the time being. The number of people here is about enough to deal with the sudden situation in the tower. Let’s go in and explore first.”
“If we can first find the divine light power I sensed in the tower, the danger level here will be greatly reduced.”
Jiang Shangbai looked at the sky and then said to everyone.
Everyone nodded when they heard Jiang Shangbai’s words. Then, they headed towards the tallest building in the abandoned city in front of them.
Lu Yan and the others also got up and entered the team before directly heading towards the tower.
At this moment, Lu Yan looked at the time.
It was eight in the evening.
Looking up, the black fog in the sky was already as dense as ink.
