"fool."

The weasel took the phone, and while operating it, it glanced sideways at the minotaur.

"Use your brain to think about it."

"Back then, the Blood Fox clan killed their brothers."

"Now they know that Lu Ming left the Northern Border to face our deadly trap alone."

"What will happen when the high-ranking officers of the Northern Army see this video?"

The minotaur frowned and thought for a long time.

"They'll probably come, right?"

The weasel grinned.

"Once they leave the Northern Army, without anyone to command the legions, the North will be nothing but an empty shell."

"Then our demon army's chance to break through the pass has arrived, hasn't it?"

"No."

"They will definitely come."

Blood Fox raised its paw and slowly stroked the old scar on its face.

"Because Lu Ming will definitely be able to guess what we're thinking."

He won't call them.

"He will only fight alone."

"But the less he shouts, the more those little lambs in the Northern Army will think he's carrying the burden all by himself."

"They will feel guilty."

"I will be angry."

"I will rush to Jinling no matter what."

"And~"

Blood Fox narrowed his eyes, his pupils filled with a morbid sense of pleasure.

"Lu Ming also has to deal with something else."

"If he doesn't call for reinforcements from the Northern Army, my sister will be bitten by dogs."

"This point will be like a nail, driven into his heart in advance."

"His mind was already in turmoil before the fight even started."

The blood fox slowly opened its mouth.

"Finally~"

"Our goal, from beginning to end, has always been to kill Lu Ming."

"It will take at least two days for the northern border to reach Jinling."

"In the next two days, we can take action against both the Northern Border and Lu Ming simultaneously."

"No matter what Lu Ming chooses."

"The northern border will surely be conquered."

The words fell.

The night breeze on the rooftop seemed to pause for a moment.

The minotaur's mouth was open, and it remained open for a long time.

It witnessed for the first time just how dirty and terrifying scheming can be.

In the end, it managed to utter only one sentence.

"I'll listen to you."

【hiss……】

[There's no solution! This blood fox is truly vicious!]

[The Train Selection Theory?]

[Northern Residents: So? We've been abandoned?]

A dense barrage of bullet comments rolled across the sky.

Those questions were like stones weighing on everyone's hearts.

north.

younger sister.

Lu Ming.

Blood Fox has blocked all the roads.

If we don't call for the Northern Army, my sister will die.

The Northern Army has been summoned; the North is about to fall.

Even without shouting, the Northern Border will still fall as soon as the Northern Army general leaves!

From the very beginning, they never intended to give Lu Ming a way out.

The sky was left unexplained.

The screen suddenly went dark amidst the comments.

The next second, the light spread out again.

The camera cuts to a classroom.

A diagram of the human body's meridians was drawn on the blackboard.

On the platform, the teacher held a piece of chalk and was carefully explaining an acupoint.

"If the flow of Qi and blood is forcibly reversed when it reaches this point, it will at least damage the meridians, and at worst..."

The chalk tapped on the blackboard.

The sound was crisp and clear.

But few people looked up from below the podium.

Someone is sleeping face down.

Someone was looking down and fiddling with the talisman paper.

Someone held their textbook upright, the bright screen of their phone behind them glaringly lit.

Some people leaned back in their chairs and looked out the window, as if their souls had already left school early.

The classroom was eerily quiet.

It was also ridiculously undisciplined.

The teacher glanced down at the floor halfway through the lecture, and her lips twitched slightly.

He seemed to have long been accustomed to the behavior of this group of people. His chest heaved twice, and finally, it turned into a suppressed sigh.

"Whether you listen or not is up to you."

"The college entrance exam isn't taken for me."

the strange thing is.

The teachers and students in the video are shrouded in a fog, their features obscured, leaving only blurry outlines.

Until the camera slowly moves on.

Park at the first table in the single row on the right, near the trash can.

A boy was lying there.

The image suddenly became clear at that moment.

Yes, Lu Ming.

The boy lay slumped over the table, his shoulders and back taut like a fully drawn bow.

His hands were hidden under the edge of the table.

In the palm of my hand is a mobile phone playing a video.

on the screen.

Blood Fox's smiling face was almost pressed against the camera lens.

"Lord War God."

"Now, I'm giving you a chance to ask for help~"

The iron cage swayed.

The vicious dog barked wildly.

The girl's scream was like a knife, stabbing into Lu Ming's heart.

"Click."

Lu Ming tightened his knuckles, and the phone frame began to deform.

"Click click click—"

A piercing, distorted sound suddenly rang out in the classroom.

The sound of chalk falling silent on the podium.

One by one, the students who had been slacking off raised their heads.

The teacher frowned and looked towards the corner.

"Lu Ming!"

His anger was just rising when he was suppressed by the murderous intent surging from the boy, causing his voice to falter.

"What are you doing?"

"Bang!!!"

Before he could finish speaking...

A burst of fire exploded in Lu Ming's palm, and he crushed the phone in his hand.

"Splash!"

Lu Ming suddenly stood up, causing the table and chairs to slam shut with a loud bang.

Bloodshot veins spread across his eyes, and the killing intent he had suppressed for so long suddenly erupted.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

A wind rises from the ground.

The test papers on the desks were torn up and flew all over the classroom.

Several test papers were slapped onto the blackboard, only to be torn apart by an invisible gust of air.

The teacher on the podium's expression changed.

"You, you, you..."

He instinctively took a step back to the side.

Lu Ming didn't look at him.

He walked step by step toward the podium.

With each step, the air in the classroom seemed to grow heavier.

Even the students who were usually so lazy and spineless were quiet at this moment.

Lu Ming stood on the podium.

His gaze swept across the blurry faces.

next moment.

He bent down and bowed deeply to the whole class.

The classroom fell silent.

"Um?"

In the first row, a boy whose face was obscured leaned back in his chair, his voice carrying a hint of frivolity.

"Council of Labor Affairs, why are you bowing to us so respectfully?"

The camera panned in the direction of his voice.

When the camera focused on his deskmate, the fog suddenly dissipated.

Yes, Long Aotian.

He leaned back in his chair, legs crossed, his expression calm.

Lu Ming bowed directly to him.

But there was not a trace of flattery on his face.

He accepted this gesture with a sense of dignity, as if he had long ago seen through Lu Ming's predicament.

Lu Ming did not get up; his hands, hanging by his sides, were clenched so tightly they turned white.

His voice was low, but every word was clear.

"Everyone."

"I, Lu, here humbly request your assistance!"

He paused for a moment.

In that instant, it was as if there were some unspeakable words that he swallowed back down his throat.

His sister was waiting for him.

The North is also waiting for him.

He is willing to die alone.

But in this round, Blood Fox wanted more than just his life.

Lu Ming took a slow breath.

"After this matter is settled, I, Lu, will use my military achievements as proof to make this promise on behalf of the Northern Border Army."

I owe everyone here a favor!

No one in the classroom spoke immediately.

Only the exam papers, lifted up by the blast wave, were still slowly drifting down from mid-air.

The teacher next to the podium finally came to his senses.

"Lu Ming!"

"What are you doing?"

"You're openly disrupting classroom order, aren't you?!"

He was so angry that his face turned blue, and he pointed at Lu Ming and started cursing.

"The Northern Army? By what right do you represent them?"

"And what are you asking these guys who never listen in class to do?"

"Go back to your seat..."

"Splash!"

He hadn't finished speaking.

A boy in the back row stood up...
