The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 91 Not at all
Jiang Hui had been very careful, worried that a surprise might suddenly appear and hit her in the face.

Unexpectedly, she was just thinking about it, but she actually guessed right.

The instructors also ran to the front, and the formation naturally became uncontrollable, leading to some chaos. The students, who had been quiet, also began to lose their composure, and the group suddenly became quite lively.

The male student in front of her turned around as if he wanted to say something. Jiang Hui's attention wasn't on that; she didn't want to chat, and she didn't want to look in that direction…

Just then, through the direction seen from the left shoulder of this student, a faint red light spot was refracted.

Jiang Hui immediately became alert. In this direction, there was a faint presence that she had been concerned about all along the way—although all she could see at a glance were piles of huge rocks lying haphazardly, and nothing else.

Then the slightly reddish light moved upwards, directly into her eyes. Jiang Hui was startled, her shoulders tensed, and her head instinctively tilted to the side. But the moment she realized something was wrong, she immediately tackled the person in front of her to the ground.

What is all this stuff?

Immediately afterward, Jiang Hui heard a clear gunshot. She instinctively shouted "Get down!" and then chaos ensued.

Jiang Hui didn't expect that lying down would make her safe. But if she stayed on top, at most the guy she was pressing down on would be safe, and she would be just using him as a human shield for nothing. So she quickly got up, crouched slightly, and half-squatted on the ground to observe the situation.

Seeing that the guy she had hit quite hard was still trying to get up, Jiang Hui whispered, "Someone is hiding in the shadows and shooting. You don't have the strength to hold on, you can't dodge it. Don't get up yet, it's safer to stay on the ground."

Zhou Xiuwen was completely dazed and hadn't yet realized what was happening. He only heard the chaos at the scene, several gunshots, and people shouting loudly. He had never seen anything like it before, and his natural instinct was to struggle to get up and run away.

But after hearing Jiang Hui's words, he hesitated for a moment, then slightly raised his head and saw another person lying on the ground not far away, looking around. Their eyes met, and an awkward atmosphere filled the air.

After being reminded, Jiang Hui had no more interest in paying attention to the person in front of her.

After only a brief moment of observation, Jiang Hui quickly deduced that the shooting was likely arranged by the school. It wasn't that she was careless, but if it were truly an enemy attack, they probably wouldn't have given them several rounds of respite. Did they expect them to wait for you to react before launching their attack?
Definitely not. Naturally, they would just fight them off one by one until they were dead... That's the style of an enemy.

Judging from their pace and movements, there's a 99% chance they're people sent by the school to raid them.

But what were those gunshots all about? Could a school exercise really involve real guns? Jiang Hui was completely baffled and tried her best to calm herself down.

The gunfire grew increasingly intense, seemingly all-pervasive, sending chills down her spine. Before she could even grasp what was happening, it felt like she was in a terrifying ambush zone, completely unpredictable and unsure when the hidden shooters would strike. It was utter chaos.

Sometimes, what you fear most really does come to pass. Just as she was thinking this, she saw a figure move in front of her, and then, as if shot down by a gun, the person fell to the ground.

Jiang Hui felt a chill run down her spine and instinctively wanted to check on the situation. But as soon as she crouched down, she saw the other person looking over... They looked familiar?
Hmm, is it someone you know?
The other person opened their mouth as if to say something. Jiang Hui lowered her head slightly, wanting to touch the damp, dark red patch on the other person's chest: "I..."

Suddenly, she lurched to the side, landing awkwardly on the ground, almost touching it, leaving the person who had just been staring at her completely bewildered. ...I just wanted to tell you that the gun wasn't real, that the marks left by the design looked like ordinary fluorescent ink, but how did you end up like that?

Jiang Hui was trying to dodge the gunfire coming from somewhere, but as soon as he lay down, he heard the guy lying on the ground say something like... "Is this paint? Is the shooting fake?"
Jiang Hui: ...

There's quite a bit of drama in this school.

Jiang Hui really wanted to just lie there until the end. Since it was confirmed that the attackers were sent by the school, they were probably just trying to add some fun to this training exercise. Let them be.

There's nothing she can do if she stands up now, so she might as well stay lying here. What's the point of eagerly getting branded with pigment?

That's what she thought, but unfortunately, the other party didn't seem to intend to let her have her way.

"WTF!" Jiang Hui couldn't help but swear. He flipped over on the spot and quickly rolled several times in the spacious area next to him. Then he jumped up with a somersault and squatted on the ground, looking around warily.

When she got up again, she found that there weren't many people standing around anymore. She didn't know if they had all been hit or if they all had the same idea as her, wanting to use the lying position to avoid the shooters hiding in the shadows.

Jiang Hui realized that the school's purpose was to hit them one by one, leaving a clear red mark on each person. These marks were to distinguish whether they had been hit or not; the student from earlier had clearly been hit, which was why the hidden planners weren't attacking him.

Jiang Hui thought to herself that she had been lying perfectly still, in a convenient, blind spot. How did those people find her? Did they have some kind of radar to tell who had actually been hit and who was faking it? Jiang Hui shook her head, trying to banish this ridiculous thought from her mind.

That's not important. The most important thing right now is to figure out how to get through this.

Whoosh, another one. This shooter was clearly more skilled than the previous one, and Jiang Hui was not as adept at dodging as before, instead appearing somewhat clumsy. However, she still managed to dodge it.

Then, Jiang Hui dodged three or four shots from different directions in a variety of bizarre and unusual ways.

Each time she dodged, she became more and more disheveled, and her physical strength was clearly reaching its limit, showing signs of exhaustion. Jiang Hui didn't know how much longer she could hold on with her remaining strength.

Even though they already knew that this might just be a live-fire exercise arranged by the school, with the procedures deliberately arranged and the guns all fake, the so-called "shooting" was just marking people with a red mark.

If she relaxed even slightly, allowing those secretly shooting her to leave a mark, she could enjoy a brief moment of peace and rest on the ground with her classmates. In fact, the two rest periods the instructors had given them along the way probably weren't as comfortable as this short rest on the ground.

But Jiang Hui just didn't want those people to hit her... not at all!
