The battle was incredibly intense!
The students were giving it their all, each showing their unique abilities!
In the midst of the fight, they didn’t dare get distracted for even a moment!
But that leopard-print underwear swaying endlessly on the battlefield was just too eye-catching, wasn’t it?
We didn’t want to lose focus!
But…
But I couldn’t control myself!
After a fierce struggle, they finally pushed the spiritual beasts back!
Jiang Nan seized the moment, teleporting to the gate, and pulled the switch!
“Clank, clank, clank!”
The heavy iron gate slammed shut, sealing the entrance!
The beasts that had broken through were quickly killed!
The students looked at the ground littered with beast corpses and the mangled bodies of the duty soldiers, falling silent.
Those soldiers had been at the forefront!
Even without abilities, they had used their flesh and blood to hold the line!
Protecting the students’ safety!
Jiang Nan felt a pang in his heart, silently saluting them!
These brave people!
They deserved respect!
But there was no time for grief now.
Chen Chen began issuing orders, “Remaining duty troops, get to the walls and snipe the beasts! Students… volunteer as you wish!”
“Earth and wood ability users, reinforce the walls!”
“As long as we hold out until the Dark Night Army arrives, we’ll be safe!”
With the orders given, the students sprang into action.
…
The entire scene had been captured by drones!
Lynx had been notified and was leading her team with a frosty expression!
Dark Night Army members hidden across the spiritual ruins were racing towards the fifth stronghold!
At the hotel’s surveillance screen, chaos ensued!
They used satellite wristbands to notify students that the exam was ending early, and to evacuate immediately!
Students from both routes were clueless about what was happening, utterly confused!
But they could only follow orders!
The broadcast signal was quickly cut off!
However, the earlier events at the stronghold had already been streamed!
The live stream audience surged to a million!
The comment section was flooded!
“Beast tide? How did it trigger a beast tide?”
“Did you see that? It was brutal!”
“God Nan lives up to his name, the most reliable student in a crisis!”
“One Tang sword, one triangular bayonet! Slicing through the beast horde, I can’t handle it! I’m covered in goosebumps!”
“If he hadn’t shouted, those students wouldn’t have moved!”
“You could tell during the fire rescue! God Nan may be cheeky, but when it matters, he’s dependable!”
“Speaking of, did anyone notice that underwear-wearing black bear… I know it’s not the time, but I can’t help commenting!”
“Praying! Stay safe!”
But then, the live stream was suddenly cut off!
“Why’d it stop!”
“We want to watch!”
“Hey, why cut the broadcast? I paid for a membership!”
The power of the internet was immense, and people flooded Jiang Nan’s Weibo, leaving countless messages!
Thousands of candle emojis and praying hands filled the comments!
“God Nan! Come back safe!”
“I’m waiting for you to come back for our online romance!”
“God Nan, create another miracle! Like the fire rescue! Bring them back safe!”
“We’re all waiting for you at Jiang City Night Market!”
At that moment, Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao sat on their bed, staring at the cut-off live stream, silent.
Xia Yao’s eyes were full of anxiety, “I’m getting the car!”
Zhong Yingxue was already putting on her clothes!
Two minutes later, the Koenigsegg Blue Phantom’s engine roared!
Speeding towards Changbai Mountain under the cover of night!
“Xiao Nan! You have to be safe!”
…
At the safe zone!
The walls trembled under the beasts’ assault!
Students were busy, some elemental mages attacking beasts from the walls!
Duty soldiers stood on the walls, unleashing a barrage of gunfire!
Jiang Nan was arranging the soldiers’ bodies, stripping their gear!
He equipped himself with a bulletproof vest, an M416 rifle, and magazines.
Against beasts below silver-level, firearms would save more energy than swinging his sword!
[Skill triggered! Firearms: LV0!]
[Add skill points: 100!]
[Skill upgraded! Firearms (Proficient): LV0!]
Now wasn’t the time to save skill points.
He’d been saving them for moments like this!
Add more!
[Add skill points: 1000!]
[Skill upgraded! Firearms (Intermediate): LV0!]
The duty soldiers were shocked to see Jiang Nan picking up a gun and tried to stop him!
“This student! You can’t mess around!”
“Guns are dangerous! Without professional training, don’t use them, you could hurt yourself or others!”
An Ning and Chen Chen noticed too!
“Yeah, a misfire would be bad!”
“Too dangerous!”
A student like Jiang Nan probably didn’t even know how to release the safety or change a magazine!
Using it rashly could easily harm himself or others!
Li Xiang seized the chance to mock, “Give it up! Think this is a game? That’s a real gun!”
Liu Quanwu added, “Put it down! You’ll hit one of us!”
Other students looked scared, swallowing hard!
Could reality compare to a game?
Completely different!
Jiang Nan squinted, slinging the M416 rifle over his shoulder!
He deftly removed the magazine, checked the ammo!
Pulled the bolt, checked the chamber!
Then loaded the magazine, pulled the bolt, and released the safety!
His movements were fluid, lightning-fast!
He raised the gun, aimed, and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
“Bang!”
A gunshot rang out, the muzzle flashing!
A spider climbing the wall had its eye shot out!
Its corpse fell outside the wall!
Jiang Nan, “Can you shut your stinking mouth?”
“Go do the work of a digger!”
That shot!
An Ning and Chen Chen were stunned!
The duty soldiers looked like they’d seen a ghost!
At that distance! And a moving target!
Even a veteran with years of training couldn’t guarantee hitting an eye so accurately!
But Jiang Nan…
How old was he?
No one would believe he hadn’t been trained!
Where did he get that training?
Was it a fluke?
But his grip, magazine swap, aim, and shot were textbook perfect!
The crowd was speechless!
Li Xiang nearly choked!
Jiang Nan actually knew how to use a gun!
And hit so accurately?
The students were dumbfounded!
What the hell! That was too professional!
Was Jiang Nan a Dark Night Army undercover among the students?
But Jiang Nan’s next move was mind-blowingly impressive!
He teleported onto the wall!
Facing a swarm of beasts!
He switched the M416 to single-shot mode, aimed, and fired rapidly!
One shot to a beast’s leg joint, making it lose balance!
A second shot to its eye, a headshot!
Two bullets per beast!
The Mozambique drill!
His magazine swap was terrifying, one hand pressing the release, the rifle flicking to eject the magazine.
The other hand already had a new magazine ready, slamming it in, chambering a round, and firing again!
The swap took less than three seconds!
His movements were seamless, maintaining firing posture throughout!
So professional, An Ning thought her shooting instructor had arrived!
