I became a big shot in the quick transmigration world.

Chapter 793 Assessment Mission: Encountering an Old Acquaintance (24)
Yu Muhuai understood what he meant.

Both of them believed that Zhu Kuncun would not let these people leave easily.

There's a high probability that something unexpected will happen on their journey to stop them from leaving.

Therefore, Luo Ji was very careful, for fear of getting separated from Yu Muhuai.

As it turned out, their speculation was correct.

After entering the woods, they became separated from the main group.

After stepping over a fallen, dead tree branch, the two of them felt a moment of disorientation.

When I closed my eyes and opened them again, the noisy sounds from the students behind me suddenly disappeared.

The two exchanged a glance, both becoming wary.

The trees in the forest are growing vigorously, with lush branches and leaves, and the sunlight shines through the leaves into the forest, creating dappled patterns of light and shadow.

The surrounding environment seemed unchanged, but the color of the light had inexplicably become much colder.

If the light was warm just now, if you look closely now, you'll see that the light has a hint of bluish-gray.

The trees and land were still the same, but everything seemed to be shrouded in a thin white veil, making it difficult to see clearly.

Because they were whispering things they couldn't let others hear, Yu Muhuai and Luo Ji stood at the very back of the group, a few people away from the main group.

Therefore, after the incident, there were no other classmates around them.

To avoid getting separated, the two never let go of each other's hands again.

As they walked, Luo Ji stopped.

He looked around, frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Have you noticed that we've just been here?"

Cheng Guang walked towards the back of the group.

Knowing that his identity as a member of his agency had been exposed, he simply stood at the back of the line openly, observing everyone in an attempt to find the other members as soon as possible.

He kept a distance from all his classmates, not daring to get too close because he was unsure of their identities, lest someone take advantage of the fact that the crowd was relatively dispersed in the woods to attack him.

After all, the assessment criteria were clearly stated, and there was competition among the members. It cannot be ruled out that some insidious members might resort to malicious tactics.

But from yesterday until now, he really couldn't think of anyone else who was a member of the agency.

After thinking it over, only the presence of that little village girl seemed a bit out of place.

Cheng Guang scratched his head, struggling again when filling in his name.

"Ahua? Is her real name Zhu Huahua? It doesn't seem like it."

Thinking of this, Cheng Guang looked down at the nameplate hanging on his chest, which bore his real name.

Forget it, since I can't think of anything, I'll just fill in Ahua.

This delay caused Chengguang to fall behind by a few steps.

When he lowered his head, he seemed somewhat dazed.

Cheng Guang didn't pay much attention, thinking that he was just feeling dizzy because he hadn't eaten or slept well.

When he looked up, the students in front of him stopped and did not continue walking.

Cheng Guang looked around in confusion, glancing left and right, and noticed that many of his classmates seemed to be missing.

He took a few steps forward and found that there were three classmates standing together in front of him, making a total of four including himself.

Cheng Guang looked at the three classmates in front of him with a puzzled expression and asked, "Huh? Where did the others go? Did they walk so fast?"

The student standing to Cheng Guang's left did not answer his question, but said, "I'm so hungry. I didn't eat well last night and this morning. What do you want to eat?" The next student to Cheng Guang's left said, "I'm hungry too. I want to eat beef noodles, egg pancakes, fried dough sticks, and meat buns. It would be even better with a bowl of soy milk."

The next student on the left, who was Cheng Guang's right, took over the conversation.

"You're talking about snacks. I want to eat more substantial dishes, like braised pork ribs, sweet and sour pork, Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried pork with green peppers, boiled fish, Sichuan peppercorn chicken, braised pig's trotters with peanuts, and beef brisket with tomatoes."

Then, the three of them turned to look at Cheng Guang at the same time and asked in unison, "What do you want to eat?"

For some reason, being stared at by these three classmates at the same time gave Cheng Guang goosebumps, and he suddenly felt a little scared.

Since they arrived yesterday, these three people haven't spoken much to Chengguang, so why do they seem to have a good relationship now?

Most importantly, what about everyone else?

It seems they got separated from the group. Why is the focus now on what to eat?
But Cheng Guang didn't have time to think much. At that moment, the eyes of the other three seemed to be faintly emitting some kind of eerie light.

What would you like to eat?

The three men remained unfazed and continued their persistent questioning.

Cheng Guang was puzzled, but seeing that his three classmates were asking so persistently, he casually thought of a few dishes: "I want to eat steak, lamb chops, roast chicken, roast duck, and roast goose."

Without thinking much, he blurted out all the meat dishes he usually liked to eat.

Upon hearing this, the three did not press further, turned back, and resumed their previous state.

But what Chengguang's classmate said next made his hair stand on end.

"I'm so hungry! I didn't eat well last night or this morning. What do you guys want to eat?"

Cheng Guang frowned, thinking to himself, "Didn't I just say that?"
"I'm hungry too. I want to eat beef noodles, egg pancakes, fried dough sticks, and meat buns. It would be even better with a bowl of soy milk."

Cheng Guang's pupils contracted sharply. This is happening again?
"You're talking about snacks. I want to eat more substantial dishes, like braised pork ribs, sweet and sour pork, Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried pork with green peppers, boiled fish, Sichuan peppercorn chicken, braised pig's trotters with peanuts, and beef brisket with tomatoes."

The three of them finished speaking quickly.

Before Chengguang could react, after the third person finished speaking, all three of them turned to look at him.

This time they didn't ask any questions, but instead gestured with their eyes.

"now you."

Even Cheng Guang, who is usually rather slow-witted, realized something was wrong.

The three students opposite me are acting strangely; they seem... they seem a bit possessed.

Are they really my classmates?
Cheng Guang's eyes widened, a chill ran down his spine, and he nervously swallowed as he faced the three men's intense gazes.

For some reason, he had a feeling that if he said something different from before, it might have some terrible consequences.

So he tried his best to repeat what he had said before word for word: "I want to eat steak, lamb chops, roast chicken, roast duck, and roast goose."

After confirming that Chengguang's answer was correct, the three turned around again and began a new round of conversation.

However, their conversation was exactly the same as before.

Cheng Guang clenched his fists so tightly that the veins stood out and his knuckles turned white.

He turned his head blankly and looked around.

The surrounding scenery seemed unchanged from before, yet there were subtle shifts.
