Chapter 553: 185. Magic Tower Library_3

Li Aozi was in a hurry, with no time to deal with the corpses of these classmates. He dragged them to conspicuous places, so they could easily be noticed by future passersby.

While on his way, Li Aozi pulled out the amulet that the veiled woman had given him and asked,

"Zaniya, that woman just now seemed to know you."

"Many people know me, after all, I am the weapon of a legendary demigod," Zaniya replied.

"Do you know what this thing is for?" Li Aozi showed the amulet to Zaniya, who inspected it carefully and let out a soft exclamation.

"I seem to have seen the text on this before... but it was just a fleeting glance, I’m not very clear."

Zaniya shook her head:

"However, this definitely isn’t something that would harm you, keep it with peace of mind."

Reassured by Zaniya’s confirmation, Li Aozi finally felt at ease to keep it.

He could almost be certain that the veiled woman must have had some hidden task, probably related to Zaniya, something like a long-term task involving the awakening or strengthening of a divine artifact.

Unfortunately, he was too pressed for time and really couldn’t spare a moment, so he would leave it to fate whether they would meet again.

He glanced at the forum; during the night, there were hardly any people, and not a single player from Newbie Village was online.

The situation still did not look promising.

Li Aozi’s progress was slow. Along the way, killing the Growth-armored Vanguards yielded almost no benefits, making him feel somewhat frustrated. These monsters had no real value at all, simply reanimated corpses implanted with Arcane Energy Imprints. He had just had a good fight with Dialan, and fighting these creatures was like chopping vegetables, and what’s more, it was forced combat, which could aggravate anyone.

Fortunately, Dialan’s condition was still relatively stable. She occasionally talked in her sleep, and Li Aozi gave her some water and milk. She didn’t make much fuss, adding no further trouble.

As time passed, the world beneath the Dimensional Barrier took on a bizarre and mysterious appearance.

Under the segregation of the Dimensional Barrier, the spacetime of many places was cleaved apart. Some areas were trapped in daylight, but just beyond a rift, dusk fell, the setting sun like blood. Beyond another few areas was the fog-laden dawn—obviously, the Dimensional Barrier wasn’t an instantaneous occurrence.

The sneak attacks by the Growth-armored Vanguards were wave after wave, which indeed pushed Zeta Rank Canyue to her limits.

Li Aozi focused on collecting supplies. The school was already in chaos, with a large amount of reserved resources all plundered; he didn’t encounter a single other survivor.

The trace of Lucite’s team, however, was becoming even more disorganized.

Several hours later, Li Aozi finally exited the school gates and reached the interior of Trevela City.

The burning streets were repeatedly blocked, with the Growth-armored Vanguards rampantly searching and raiding through the ruins in vast numbers, impossible to count.

Trevela had completely turned into an isolated island in a vast ocean.

"...it’s sealed off,"

Li Aozi scanned around and found that indeed there were no paths available to him.

The countless Growth-armored Vanguards had already noticed his conspicuous presence and were continuously converging toward him.

The trace of Lucite and the others was just ahead... Their position seemed to be aimed toward the Graduate Academy.

When they left, they probably didn’t expect there to be anyone who could break out of the school. They charged headlong, drawing all the Growth-armored Vanguards to them.

"Ah, no choice then."

However, he was thankful that due to these Growth-armored Vanguards gathered outside the school gates, the Higgs Field could no longer interfere effectively.

Li Aozi rubbed his temples. The moment he stepped out of the school gates, his eyes were suddenly covered with a long-missed golden halo.

Outside the orbit of Baizhu Star, the ’March Lily’ fortress.

"Regarding strengthening the construction of materialist ideology and the problem of using magic theory for thinking, we have discussed it many times, and all of you are experts and educational specialists in the industry. You should understand that university students are at a stage where their thoughts are easily swayed. They have some ability to think independently yet stubbornly believe they are unique. This kind of thinking is undesirable, and if not careful, they could stray into the heretical path of idealism. Even worse, some might fall into corruption and degradation, becoming citizens of the ’Society’..."

The Minister of Education, Balkmon, was discussing thoughts and educational policies on stage, while the leaders and professors below were almost dozing off.

"In this day and age, still discussing the threat of ’Society’..." Karl played with the Information Rune while complaining in a group chat: "Dean Nastisha
