Chapter 503: Chapter 225 Speed Brush Classroom_2

Mu Daxian explained, "The danger isn’t you, it’s the breath you carry that belongs to Him..."

Mao Feiyang was slightly stunned, then fell into silence.

"Brother Xian, are you saying... we could contaminate them?"

Mu Daxian nodded silently.

"Pretty much... Whether it’s His breath or the Art Student breath we carry, anything that contains Supernatural Power is inherently contaminating."

"His breath can cause some people with unstable mental states to experience... well, hallucinations or Phantom Vision, thus causing some deviations in their perception."

Mao Feiyang felt a chill in his heart and couldn’t help but hiss, "Don’t tell me, in their eyes, we... are not human? Brother Xian, I was saying, the way they looked at us earlier, it wasn’t quite right..."

Mu Daxian gave him a look and said dryly, "If you were cosplaying as the Ninja Turtles, their looks wouldn’t be normal either."

Suddenly, Mao Feiyang stopped talking.

Dressed in a dark green Art Student uniform, carrying a painting board covered with a cloth bag, Mu Daxian, if you didn’t look closely, really did resemble a Ninja Turtle...

"Ninja Turtle maybe not, but I feel more like a beggar version of the Turtle Prime Minister..." Mao Feiyang couldn’t help muttering.

"I’ll give you a brick!" Mu Daxian scoffed, "Let’s go, don’t stay and cause harm. Once we get the marks on you cleaned up, and you want to come back and have a laugh, then return."

Having said that, Mu Daxian pushed open the door and walked out on his own.

Mao Feiyang glanced back at the lecture room, then clenched his teeth and followed without looking back.

"Brother Xian, what are we going to do next?" Mao Feiyang followed Mu Daxian down the stairs but didn’t know what Mu Daxian’s plan was, "My arm isn’t bleeding today, do we just need to find a place to hide until midnight?"

Mu Daxian shook his head, "The preparation work isn’t done yet."

"What else do we need to do?"

Mu Daxian shook the cloth bag, "You didn’t think that just a few useless lightbulbs would be enough to conceal your breath, did you?"

"Uh... I actually thought that would be enough." Mao Feiyang muttered.

As Mu Daxian surveyed the surroundings of the Green Forest Belt, he explained, "Firstly, covering our breath is just to prevent attracting the attention of the Sneering Angel."

"Secondly, the bulbs now can’t yet conceal our breath."

"Lastly, even if they could mask our breath, it still wouldn’t be enough."

"That means, we have other preliminary conditions that need to be met."

"So... don’t even mention staying in the classroom; even if we could, we shouldn’t."

"Do you understand what I’m saying?"

Mu Daxian progressed logically, each point concise and clear, the current Ninja Turtle as sharp as a professional accountant splitting assets.

But Mao Feiyang, ever the motormouth, still managed to say something cheeky: "So why didn’t we just do it all at once earlier...? Why did we even go to the classroom?"

Mu Daxian gave him a look that said ’figure it out for yourself.’

Mao Feiyang immediately spread his hands and returned a ’got nothing to say’ expression.

Then Mu Daxian said, "Class B2 during the 70th Grey Mist Invasion made some strategic mistakes leading to a significant loss of Sports Students, so I had to give some ’guidance’ to prevent them from assigning people to stay in the classroom."

"Oh, I see... wait, Brother Xian, do you mean... Sports Students also attend study classes?" Mao Feiyang seemed to catch a keyword.

But Lin Yi’s eyes lit up, interested in the concept of "staying behind."

Sports Students staying behind in the classroom?

But according to Xu Shunkang’s words, didn’t all the Sports Students leave the classroom?

Mu Daxian said, "Every self-study class, Sports Students will leave a few people to stay in the classroom, but they won’t wear the Sports Student uniform. They will leave the classroom before 21:00 each day, under the pretense of going to the restroom, by reversing their uniforms... just like yesterday when Old Du and the others went to the cafeteria to eat."

"Is it like undercover cops?" Mao Feiyang somewhat understood.

Mu Daxian nodded, "That’s right, but these Sports Students generally don’t take action, even if an Experience Student faces danger, they usually won’t help."

"Why?"

"Because they can’t win."

"Uh..."

"The resources of Sports Students are also very valuable, they definitely cannot be wasted unnecessarily," Mu Daxian paused then added, "’Staying behind’ isn’t about guarding people, it’s about guarding territory."

Mao Feiyang’s spirit shivered, he seemed to think of something and said thoughtfully, "The 70th Grey Mist Invasion... Brother Xian, wasn’t that the one where Old Mo sacrificed himself?"

"That’s the one." Mu Daxian took a deep breath, "There was a Sports Student who, through thinking about the rules, thought he had found a strategy, and planned a major action for Class 2 Group B’s Sports Students..."

"Coincidentally, that Grey Mist Invasion was the severest since I have entered the school, so that Sports Student’s action failed and indirectly led to nearly the annihilation of Sports Students of Class 2 Group B..."

"Well, okay..." Mao Feiyang couldn’t imagine what that disastrous failure looked like just from the literal meaning, so he then asked, "So what do we need to do next?"

Mu Daxian glanced at the nearby Green Forest Belt and squeezed out a mysterious smile, "We’ll first go charge the light bulb, then prepare some ’Deceptive Meal’ for the Sneering Angel."

"After everything is ready, the plan to return to the Art Building will be foolproof."

Just hearing the word "charge," Mao Feiyang felt that Mu Daxian was probably planning something big, and when he heard Mu Daxian mention preparing something like a Deceptive Meal for the Sneering Angel, his expression just collapsed...

Deceptive Meal.

Just hearing it, you know it’s nothing serious!

Before the sound faded, Mu Daxian had already led the way into the Green Forest Belt.

The moment he stepped into the Green Forest Belt, Mao Feiyang had a vague premonition that this "charging," might be completely different from what he had predicted.

Mu Daxian could use a paintbrush to replenish the numbers on lampposts, but he couldn’t charge a light bulb?

Mao Feiyang cautiously raised this question.

Mu Daxian didn’t find anything wrong with Mao Feiyang’s question and casually pushed aside a Human Sculpture while explaining, "Do you remember I mentioned the concept of repairing and direct replacement when we talked about lamppost spares before?"

"Abandoned bulbs are actually ’out of action.’ I can indeed charge them temporarily to grant them some efficacy, but this consumes more from me than simply replenishing the lamppost numbers requires."

"Simply put, maintaining a dying fire just needs some firewood, but reigniting a fire requires much more energy, especially if the kindling is wet. Makes sense, right?"

Mao Feiyang nodded, "I get it, so you plan to... use these Pseudo-Humans as charging material?"

"These?" Mu Daxian casually pushed aside another Human Sculpture, indifferently said, "These are too low grade, we are going for high-quality resources."

"High-quality resources?!" Mao Feiyang’s eyes momentarily lit up, but he quickly realized this ’high-quality resource’ was not what he thought; realizing he was dealing with some serious off-the-books stuff, he immediately coughed dryly and silently followed.

Just walking like that...

Mao Feiyang hadn’t quite grasped it yet, but Lin Yi noticed something—

When Mu Daxian went deeper into a certain depth of the Green Forest Belt, he seemed to have stopped going deeper and instead... began circling a certain range!

"What is he trying to do?" Just as Lin Yi was puzzled by Mu Daxian’s actions, an ominous premonition slowly rose from the bottom of his heart, "Wait a moment..."

"Could he be lost?"
