I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 740 A Fateful Encounter

The rules set by the Queen prohibit fighting in the teaching and examination areas unless it is related to the teaching and examination content.

Bai Mi successfully entered the next round of exams, which caused Bai Tina to get jealous. She gathered half of the forces in the east and west districts and ambushed outside the church.

"I just don't believe he can always be so lucky."

Li Xiu saw Bai Tina's face full of gloom. He looked at the huge crowd inside through the black fence and smiled and comforted her: "Tina, don't worry, we still have people in there. Bai Mi's arrogance won't last long."

He is the grandson of the Li family and an old aristocrat of Country S. He grew up with members of the royal family and is childhood sweethearts with Bai Tina.

Bai Tina crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows: "Who's in there?"

She suddenly remembered a silver mask and had a strange expression on her face: "Is that the Shen family member?"

Li Xiu nodded: "It can be said to be a coincidence. Shen Yize arrived a step late and was not stopped outside the boundary."

Bai Tina: "Given his abilities, he doesn't seem incapable of crossing the boundary. I think someone is afraid of being overshadowed and deliberately preventing him from crossing the boundary, right?"

Li Xiu's expression changed slightly.

Bai Tina saw it, her eyelids slightly raised, and she smiled with the corners of her mouth hooked: "Don't worry, as long as you help me beat Bai Mi, I won't say anything more."

Li Xiu's expression softened, and he turned to look at Gaota: "Do you know who the examiner is this time?"

Bai Tina snorted coldly: "How would I know who my grandmother chose? The teaching exam is over in one day. Bai Mi was ambushed by us and has no resources or people left. Just wait, he will suffer the consequences."

Those who successfully advanced were led by the captain of the guards and entered the examination room from the east gate of the church.

The so-called examination room was a designated battleground using the surrounding area of ​​the church. The nuns and priests continued chanting in the church as usual.

Pata, the assistant invigilator, spoke on his behalf: "In ten minutes, this place will be attacked by terrorists. You need to find the most valuable item here and hand it over to the invigilator before the church is completely destroyed."

Everyone was confused.

"What is the most precious thing?"

Pata pointed at the man who asked the question expressionlessly: "Get the fork out!"

man:"……"

Some people couldn't bear to see it: "Why?"

Pata waved his hand: "Take him too."

Some people wanted to open their mouths, but were immediately reminded by their companions and quickly covered their mouths.

Bai Mi frowned and looked up at the tower behind the church. This examination made no sense. Who was the examiner up there? None of the examiners' personalities matched the intelligence he had gathered. Was there something wrong with the information?

In principle, the examiner's information was kept confidential before the hunt, but there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall. The honor bestowed by the Queen was tied to military power, and the higher the stakes, the more people were involved. Probing the invigilator's information, and even bribing the examiner, became inevitable shady practices.

Bai Mi's mother is the eldest princess, so her resources are naturally top-notch in Country S. Just because Bai Tina can't get the examiner's resources doesn't mean he can't get them.

Originally, Bai Laman had bribed two of the examiners, but when Bai Mi found out, he forcibly refused and even threatened to withdraw from the competition. Bai Laman had no choice but to give in.

There are about a hundred people who have successfully advanced. All of them quickly formed an alliance within the ten minutes of rest and soon divided into different camps.

Bai Tina had already spread the word outside the circle that anyone who dared to ally with Bai Mi during the exam would be hunted down to the bitter end. Now Bai Mi had no resources and no connections. Everyone was afraid of Bai Tina's intimidation and no one dared to step forward to show their goodwill. Bai Mi was still alone after all the rounds.

Among the gathered crowd, Xia Xingchen, wearing black camouflage uniform and a silver skull mask on his face, was squatting on the ground, slowly adjusting his shoelaces.

The companions around me have been communicating in S language.

"What do you think is the most precious thing?"

"Gemstones? Or gold?"

"It shouldn't be that simple..."

After discussing to no avail, they exchanged glances, squatted down and pretended to tie their shoelaces to surround Xia Xingchen, signaling with their fingers:

"Hey, Country A, Master Xiu has instructed us not to let Bai Mi get out of here. We're going to look for something later, and I'll leave him in your care."

Xia Xingchen lowered his eyelids and nodded lightly.

Seeing that he was so easy to talk to, several people stood up with a proud look on their faces and continued to communicate in S language.

"Can we rely on him alone?"

"Who cares if he can do it or not? Bai Mi is the royal family's legitimate heir after all. If we offend him, we won't end up well. This foreigner can be used as a shield."

"Boom-thump-thump-"

The heavy toll of the bell suddenly shattered the temporary tranquility. Three muffled peals, like a death knell, struck everyone's heart fiercely. Pata's figure had long since disappeared, replaced by a sudden roar from all directions!

Wingman planes circled overhead, dropping white smoke bombs. Figures wearing royal soldier uniforms but with terrorist armbands swarmed out from the darkness, rooftops, and shadowy corners, precisely blocking the passage and creating chaos.

The test officially begins.

"Run!"

Someone shouted, and the originally clear-cut alliances instantly exploded. The crowd fled in all directions in the smoke-filled church courtyards and corridors like a swarm of startled ants.

"Look for something! Spread out and search!"

The holy church instantly became a battlefield, and the nuns' prayers were completely drowned out by the shrill alarms and simulated gunshots.

Bai Mi moved the second the bell rang.

Like a flash of lightning, he relied on his familiarity with the church structure and amazing speed to narrowly avoid a head-on interception by a group of "terrorists".

Amidst the chaos, several figures weren't rushing for the so-called "precious items." Instead, their targets were remarkably clear, their gazes scanning every corner. They exchanged glances, swiftly moving through the chaotic battlefield, quickly launching a roundup.

"Boom-boom-"

The bullet passed through the side of the ear, and the trajectory flashed past at a high speed, rubbing against the air flow.

Bai Mi paused, staring at the shocking traces of smoke left on the wall, his eyes dimming a little.

It's a real gun.

However, real guns are not allowed in hunting, and only air guns with insufficient lethality are used.

Someone wanted to kill him during the chaos.

Bai Mi's heart sank. Bai Tina didn't have the guts to do this, so who was it? Bai Lie? Or someone else? His eyes sharpened, and without hesitation, he flung open an unassuming side door and rushed into the dimly lit holy artifact storage room.

But at this moment, a dark shadow walked out of the storage room door.

Amidst the chaos of the ongoing battle, Bai Mi still caught the almost inaudible sound of a bullet being loaded, and he immediately instinctively moved his body to the side.

"boom--"

A cluster of fire shot out from the darkness and passed through his shoulder.

Bai Mi groaned, tightly covering the wound on his left shoulder, and turned to run towards the corridor behind him.

Xia Xingchen walked out from the dim light, lowered his eyes to look at the bloodstains on the ground, and followed the direction of the bloodstains slowly.

Bai Mi, taking advantage of his familiarity with the terrain, circled the corridor and returned to the storage room. He had originally intended to go to the tower behind the church to seek help from the invigilator, but the exit had been blocked by the group of people just now, leaving him completely trapped.

"Quick, go see if there's anything over there?"

A low, murderous voice was heard outside the door, and footsteps were rapidly approaching the door of the storage room!

In a hurry, Bai Mi didn't care about anything else. He glanced at the heavy wooden cabinets, suddenly opened the door of a slightly old cabinet, and got in without hesitation. The space inside the cabinet was small and cramped, and the strong smell of dust and the unique smell of fabric instantly enveloped him.

He held his breath and listened attentively, his heart pounding in his chest, almost shattering his ribs. The pain of the wound was now extremely clear, and warm blood slid down his arm and dripped onto the wooden board at the bottom of the cabinet, making a barely audible "tick".

Xia Xingchen stared at the wooden door of the storage room, which swayed slightly in the chaotic air currents, his eyes sharp as an icy blade. The bloodstains suddenly thickened here; the target must be inside.

He silently stroked the cold lines of the gun handle with his fingertips, and was about to kick open the door that was in the way—

"The storage room has been requisitioned by the invigilator. Anyone trespassing will be killed."

A clear, pleasant, yet unmistakable female voice suddenly sounded behind him.
