Chapter 16: I was scared when shit hit me
The entrance to the secret realm within the base is naturally guarded by the association's card makers.
When they saw Russell coming out of the secret realm, they were stunned. Did this secret realm training end so quickly?
As they watched, Russell quickly ran up to them and said three words with a serious face: "Something happened."
Soon, Victoria Song and the base leaders rushed here after learning about the situation.
When Song Qian heard that Russell had come out of the secret realm early, she couldn't believe it. In her opinion, even if other students had come out, Russell might not come out.
Therefore, when she saw that Russell was safe and sound, Victoria Song couldn't help but feel relieved, but she immediately asked, "What happened?"
Russell immediately recounted what happened in the secret realm.
However, there was something obviously fishy about this matter. In addition to Victoria Song and the base leaders, there were also many ordinary association card makers present.
Although Russell only speculated that the matter was related to the Qiling Society, in order to guard against possible spies, he still concealed the last part about Lao Wang, and only said that an unknown demon attacked, resulting in the death of the association's card maker in the secret realm.
The leader of the base surnamed Gu was shocked when he heard this. You know, the secret realm is full of surveillance cameras, and it is basically impossible to create a powerful demon that is out of control under surveillance.
However, he did not refute Russell's words. It was obvious that the little classmate in front of him would not tell such a lie that would be easily exposed, so he just asked the card makers around him to quickly enter the secret realm for rescue.
Seeing that the surrounding card makers had already entered the secret realm, Russell thought for a moment and decided to tell Song Qian and the base leader what happened last: "Teacher Song, Director Gu, in fact, it was not the demons in the secret realm who attacked us, but a card maker stationed in the secret realm."
The mood that Gu had just calmed down was instantly disturbed by Russell's words, but he was the leader of a place after all, so he immediately suppressed the national curse that was about to blurt out, and his expression gradually became serious: "Little classmate, you have to provide evidence when you speak."
Russell shook his head. Not only did he have no evidence, but when he was in the secret realm, he also deliberately used his body to block the surveillance camera from filming Lao Wang's face: "I have no evidence, but..."
As he spoke, Russell took out the [Flesh Demon] (Gold) from his pocket.
"I don't think this material will be produced in the [Qianzu] secret realm."
Looking at the [Flesh and Blood Demon] (gold) in Russell's hand, Director Gu's expression became more and more ugly.
Taking a deep breath, Director Gu forced himself to control his emotions and said with a complicated expression: "I need to report the situation here to my superiors."
"Teacher Song, you and this student Luo please wait here for a while."
After saying this, Director Gu hurriedly left the entrance to the secret realm.
Soon, students from key classes were brought out one after another by the association's card makers.
At this time they were all a little confused because only an hour or so had passed since they started exploring the secret realm.
"Is this the end? I just got a material!"
"You're lucky. I was halfway up the mountain when they told me it was over."
Song Qian clapped her hands with a smile on her face, stopping the students' discussions: "Okay, okay, students, I believe everyone has experienced the dangers in the secret realm, and this training ends here."
"Now please go back to the bus and wait patiently."
Song Qian naturally would not explain to the students what happened. According to what Russell said, this incident was obviously premeditated, so the less these students knew, the better.
After a while, Jiang Nanxi and Du Heng were also brought out, along with them was the unconscious Lin Yue who was carried on a stretcher.
Fortunately, according to the card maker who was carrying Lin Yue, although Lin Yue was seriously injured, his life was not in danger and he would be able to recover soon in this world with card makers.
Seeing Lin Yue being slowly carried away, Victoria Song was about to tell Jiang Nanxi and Du Heng to get back on the bus when Du Heng suddenly said to Victoria Song with a pale face, "I'm sorry, Teacher Song. I was so scared just now that I accidentally pushed Jiang Nanxi."
Russell on the side couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he heard this: "You're afraid when something happens." And Song Qian was also confused by Du Heng's nonsensical words.
At this time, Jiang Nanxi spoke up at the right time to explain the situation in the secret realm just now.
Hearing this, Song Qian showed a serious expression on her face: "I will talk to Principal Xie about this matter, and I will definitely give you an explanation."
Then, Victoria Song turned to look at Du Heng and said sternly, "Du Heng, please go back to the bus now. I will have a good talk with your parents when we get back to school."
You know, the education in every school has repeatedly stressed that you should not fight with card makers in the same team, let alone let other card makers take the blame for you.
Du Heng returned to the bus in a daze.
Due to his age, it would be impossible for him to continue studying at Shanghai No. 1 Middle School. It is even unknown whether there is any school willing to accept him.
But the more serious punishment stops here. The most he can do is to deprive him of the ability to make cards and keep him under strict supervision after the results come out.
Russell felt no sympathy when he saw this. He thought that everything Du Heng had now was what he deserved and it was all his own fault.
At this moment, Director Gu hurried back: "Student Luo, Master Bai wants to see you."
"Master Bai?"
"【Yan Luo】Bai Yueming, Master Bai."
On the other side, on the top floor of the Shanghai Card Masters Association building.
A white-haired old man was talking to a middle-aged man with a goatee.
The old man sighed and asked the middle-aged man, "I heard that several high schools had accidents while exploring the secret realm?"
The middle-aged man nodded with an unpleasant expression upon hearing this: "Many students were injured or killed, and we still don't know who did it."
"Who else could it be other than the Spirit Begging Society and the Guiyi Sect?" The old man looked calm. He had already guessed who the attacker was. "I just don't know how they did it."
Just as the middle-aged man opened his mouth to speak, a phone ring interrupted him: "Sorry, Master Bai, I have to take a call first."
The old man was naturally Bai Yueming. Bai Yueming stretched out his hand and motioned for him to do as he pleased.
"Hey?"
"What! I know."
"Please let this little classmate wait there for a while."
After hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man said in a serious tone, "Master Bai, we have a clue. A student from Shanghai No. 1 Middle School successfully killed the attacker."
"And he also saw the attacker's true appearance."
"He is the card maker of our association stationed in the secret territory."
Bai Yueming's old face gradually showed a smile after hearing this: "It seems that our Ming Dynasty has a successor. Let this young student come here now."
"Okay, I'll ask them to bring the person over right away."
