Chapter 745: A Game Begins!

Leaving Starnet Academy, Bai Xiaofei’s party picked up speed . Their four Blackscale Horse-drawn carriages ran like flying .

“With this current speed, we should be able to get to Starflame City before dark . Although it’s just a small town, it’s good enough a place to rest,” Fang Ye informed . Compared with the other people in the carriage, he looked composed and business-like .

Because no one else in the carriage listened to a single word .

“What? Old Fang, what did you say?” asked Wu Chi, his lips all greasy after he chomped on the chicken leg in his hand .

Around him, Mo Ka, Shi Kui, and Xing Nan were fighting for the chicken legs on the plate .

“Forget it, it’s nothing . ” An angry Fang Ye facepalmed and shook his head . I think I made a mistake in choosing this carriage…

“Wang Hang, where are we?”

In another carriage sat the rest of the boys . Unlike the chaotic people in the first one, each person was more stable than the last: Bai Xiaofei, Wang Hang, Chen Hui, Ming One, and Ming Two .

“We should be two hours away from Starflame City . Looks like we are resting there tonight,” Wang Hang made the same conclusion as Fang Ye .

Bai Xiaofei frowned . Pondering a little, he asked, “If I remember correctly, Starflame City is the only city that we’ll see on the way for a while, right?”

“Yes, almost everyone would stop to rest there after leaving the academy . The citizens there are very friendly to Starnet students,” replied Wang Hang with a hint of yearning . He had failed to grasp Bai Xiaofei’s point .

“Inform everyone to stop, we will camp in the wild tonight and go around Starflame City tomorrow!” said Bai Xiaofei .

Hearing this, the rest of the people in the carriage were stunned before someone reacted .

“I’ll inform them . ” Chen Hui pulled on the reins and got off to stop the carriages behind .

“Why…”

“Is that?”

The speaking habits of Ming One and Ming Two still had not changed during the years at all .

“I’ll let Wang Hang explain it to you . ” Bai Xiaofei then jumped out of the carriage and summoned Huskie and Blackie .

Golden Feather also took this rare opportunity to come out . Her three children were left to the Leng triplets, which she was upset about for a long time, but it was obviously a better choice for them .

“Check the surroundings for any suspicious people,” Bai Xiaofei told Huskie and saw the latter hold out his paw . He scolded, “You little sh*t! No benefits, no work, huh?!”

In the end, however, Bai Xiaofei still took out a bag of treats…

As the puppets went to scout, the convoy had stopped . Ming One and Ming Two asked Wang Hang why they had to skip Starflame City, but Wang Hang had no idea either . And not just him, everyone else was also confused .

“We’re almost at Starflame City, why stop? Are we going to sleep in the wild?” Xu Chen was frank with her thoughts . In front of the Savage Class, she didn’t need to put on a senior-front like in the Sword of Assault .

“You are right, we are going to camp in the wild,” replied Chen Hui who had started to take the tents out of his storage ring . Four years had turned this once introverted boy into a reliable youth .

“Why?” Xu Chen was still inquisitive .

“Don’t worry, he will explain soon . ” Chen Hui smiled . He had actually learned how to keep people in suspense .

Although most were confused, Bai Xiaofei’s decision was followed . Before long, several tents were set up at the same time the puppets returned .

“Nothing out of the ordinary . There’s no one else within 30 miles,” Golden Feather reported .

Bai Xiaofei revealed a smile upon hearing this . It seems that I overestimated the opponent!

“Now you can tell us why we are sleeping at this barren hill instead of warm beds in Starflame City,” demanded a frosty Hu Xian’er . She didn’t mean to make it hard for Bai Xiaofei, but she just couldn’t take it anymore after being ceaselessly questioned by the others . After all, Lin Li’s character made it impossible for her to question Bai Xiaofei like this .

Indeed, Hu Xian’er was very useful .

“Alright, alright, I’ll explain!” With a helpless sigh, Bai Xiaofei felt as if he had his belief in the wrong person… Eek, I forgot she’s not a person…

“We investigated the person who came to Starnet for help . Although the person himself didn’t leave any useful information, his puppet was a rare long-distance teleportation type, but unfortunately, it was random teleportation . So, I reached the conclusion that before asking for help, he must have been locked up somewhere and escaped by luck, which is why he was so urgent . Unfortunately, he underestimated the power of the worms inside his body . ”

After a brief pause, Bai Xiaofei continued,

“So from what we know, the producers of the Blood Diamonds must have a strict watch on the hosts of the worms . This is probably why there have been no investigations about this . Therefore, the people behind it must be very nervous when someone escapes . ”

Many people were struck with realization .

“You mean, there may be eyes in Starflame City already?!” For once, Mo Ka grasped the point right away .

“That’s right . It’s impossible for them not to leave a tracking signal on the hosts . Therefore, it’s likely that they have put up their guard against Starnet . Moreover, after so long, they should have planted people in Starflame City to watch out for movement from our academy,” Bai Xiaofei finished his explanation . This time, everyone understood .

“Even if we go around Starflame City, we’ll eventually be discovered for acting in a big group like this, though . Are you saying we need to give up our student identity?” Duan Yiyi frowned as she was unable to think of any way they could disguise themselves .

“Not necessarily!” Fang Ye chuckled . Then, under the gaze of everyone, he took out a Fei token made for executives . “Don’t forget that I’m a senior manager of the Illusion Demon Merchant Group . There should be no problem for the personnel of a branch to go around and inspect the market, right?”

Fang Ye looked proud, but what he earned were a bunch of eye-rolls . Considering their relationship, anyone present could get a senior manager token if they wanted to .

No matter what, however, Fang Ye correctly guessed Bai Xiaofei’s idea this time . They didn’t make this trip as people of Starnet, but Illusion Demon!
