"Sit down, calm down, don't make things worse!" Mans shouted, stopping Deyaki from drinking.
At this moment, Ye Sheng's snake contacted the operations room: "Professor, when we were preparing to leave, all the roads in Bronze City suddenly changed, and we can't find the exit!"
"Are you all alright?" Professor Mans asked.
Ye Sheng replied, "It's nothing."
Saketoya breathed a sigh of relief.
“Okay, hang in there, I’ll think of something!” Professor Mans immediately called Angers.
"Principal, we're in trouble..."
……
Kassel Academy.
noon.
While Gu Ran was meditating, she suddenly heard a piercing alarm.
Qi Lan immediately stood up from his desk. He recalled the contents of the Emergency Manual, which was an emergency assembly order of Level A or higher!
Chapter 108 Gu Ran's New Mission
Gu Ran frowned. Was he still trapped?
It shouldn’t be!
What unexpected event occurred?
As soon as Gu Ran and Qi Lan came downstairs, they saw Nuonuo pulling Lu Mingfei toward the library.
The group entered the library's main control room.
Manstein, the member of the Disciplinary Committee, counted the number of students: fourteen in total, including thirteen A-level students and one S-level student. All of them were present.
The professors were all present.
He reported the number of people to Professor Schneider, the head of the executive department.
Schneider immediately explained the situation.
It was at this moment that Gu Ran learned that Ye Sheng and Selma were underwater.
Their mission started smoothly and they avoided the psychic vision, but just as they reached the exit, the mechanism suddenly activated.
They were trapped.
Gu Ran guessed that it was very likely that when the dragon servant returned, he discovered the intruders and thus activated the switch to the Bronze City.
All I can say is that Ye Sheng and his team were really unlucky.
Schneider sent the images of the dragon runes that Selma had taken back to the students, hoping that some of them could find inspiration and decipher the map of the Bronze City's mechanisms.
The school's two major clubs, the Lionheart Club and the Student Council, sat clearly separated.
They took out their laptops and immediately got to work.
Gu Ran and Lu Mingfei didn't bring their own computers, so they used the library's spare computers.
After turning on his computer, Gu Ran didn't move or put on his headphones, because he couldn't do anything about it.
The one who had a solution was Lu Mingfei, who was standing nearby.
He was looking around blankly.
Gu Ran thought for a moment and reminded Lu Mingfei beside him, "This kind of transoceanic rescue mission is purely a matter of luck. It would be great if we had a cheat code, like the fully unlocked map in Warcraft, which could dispel the fog of war..."
“How could such a cheat code exist in reality…” Lu Mingfei seemed to have thought of something as soon as he finished speaking.
He glanced at Gu Ran first, only to find that Gu Ran wasn't looking at him.
So, he secretly and furtively typed the StarCraft cheat code into the dialog box on his computer screen:
Black sheep wall!
The black sheep jumped over the wall and ran away!
Two seconds later, the computer screen in front of Gu Ran went black, and then a new map appeared!
In the corner of the map, it is clearly marked: 'Lu Mingfei's interpretation result'.
Everyone except Gu Ran looked at Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei lowered his head slightly, seemingly unaware of his status as a top student, and shyly avoided everyone's gaze.
Gu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. The map had been deciphered, which should have bought them a lot of time.
He recalled the first time he dealt with Ye Sheng. That day, he had just been approached by loan sharks and was at his wit's end.
Ye Sheng made a special trip to the door of his rented apartment to deliver the interview notice, thus opening the door to Kassel for Gu Ran.
There's also Jiu Deya, a gentle and polite girl who specially comforted Gu Ran after his parents passed away.
We don't know what their final fate will be.
After a while, news began to arrive from across the ocean that Ye Sheng and his companion had successfully escaped from the Bronze City.
However, their ship was attacked by a mysterious shadow.
The people on the ship fought against the monsters underwater.
Just as everyone was concerned about the outcome of the battle, communication between the ship and the library was suddenly cut off.
Suddenly, the library fell silent.
……
In the library, Gu Ran was meditating with his eyes closed, while Lu Mingfei was playing a game with EVA, but he seemed to have been tricked by EVA and accidentally cried out:
"It's huge!"
"Big? What's big?" Professor Schneider asked Lu Mingfei.
“Uh…” Lu Mingfei suddenly stood up, stammering.
Gu Ran's voice rang out from the side: "Great sound is silent, solitary and alone, or 'great one' for short, describes something quiet and lonely."
"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Lu Mingfei quickly chimed in, giving Gu Ran a thumbs-up under the desk.
There's a real difference between top students and underachievers; they can speak eloquently and persuasively.
"Yes, it's huge."
Professor Schneider nodded. The atmosphere in the library was indeed too quiet, so quiet that it felt as if he were all alone.
I have no idea how things are going over there.
He was very worried about his old comrade-in-arms, Mans.
At that moment, the library's large screen suddenly lit up, and the handsome old gentleman Angers appeared on the screen.
He simply said that the tugboat was safe and the school had obtained important information, and then announced that everyone should disperse.
He did not mention any casualties.
The Lionheart Club and the Student Council members all thought it was good news, so they offered their congratulations. However, the two groups maintained a clear distinction when offering their congratulations.
Lu Mingfei and Gu Ran, the two freshmen, did not join either side, but they did not seem lonely when they were together.
Seeing Gu Ran's silence, Lu Mingfei asked, "What's wrong? It's all over, what are you still worried about?"
"It's nothing." Gu Ran shut down the computer.
After Qi Lan went out, she came back with a bouquet of flowers in her hand. She presented them to Lu Mingfei and then hugged him tightly.
The professors in the library began to applaud and congratulate Lu Mingfei, because he was the one who deciphered the map.
Then Caesar and Chu Zihang led the applause, and their henchmen joined in the celebration.
Only Gu Ran and Nuonuo did not applaud. Gu Ran felt that Angers had concealed the battle losses, and now was not the time to celebrate.
Nono didn't know anything; she was just blowing bubbles on the side.
Schneider announced that everyone was disbanding, and the group began to leave one after another.
As Lu Mingfei walked to the door, Angers on the screen suddenly announced Lu Mingfei's 3E exam results.
He became a true S-class player.
Among the crowd, the students accepted the result with a mixture of surprise and acceptance.
Guderian was the happiest, because Lu Mingfei was his student.
"Also, Gu Ran." Angers on the screen looked at Gu Ran, "There's an urgent mission for you. The train has been urgently arranged for you. Take your equipment and set off as fast as you can. Norma will send you the mission details."
"Okay," Gu Ran calmly agreed.
Sure enough, something happened over there; Angers had only been reporting good news and not bad.
Without turning his head or saying goodbye to anyone, he quickly left the library.
Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, seemingly wanting to say something to Gu Ran, but he had already walked away.
He turned back to ask Angers something, but Angers also ended the video call.
"Ruined!"
Lu Mingfei scratched his head, feeling a little irritated.
Outside the gate, the bells of the church bell tower rang, and a large flock of white doves began to emerge. After circling in the air above the campus for a while, they slowly landed on the lawn, cooing softly.
Gu Ran had already gathered his equipment and walked out of the dormitory, where he saw the dormitory on the lawn.
He had never realized that the cooing of pigeons could be so mournful.
He turned and left immediately, ignoring the scene of his classmates mourning, and quickly went to the train station at the foot of the mountain, where he boarded a special train added just for him.
Chapter 109 Rescue
Late at night.
After boarding the extra train provided by the academy, Gu Ran took a helicopter to Chicago Airport, then a Gulfstream private jet, and finally landed at a hospital in San Francisco.
