Chapter 2550 - 1155: Parting Ways, Death Is Certain!
Difficulty always makes people hesitate!
Don’t even mention going to fight the Ghost King, a perilous mission that could lead to death, even when faced with difficult assignments or challenging work, most people procrastinate if they can.
Few are those who can identify a problem and immediately set about solving it; otherwise, why are successful people so rare?
This is human nature!
Hard work, enduring hardship, facing challenges head-on, these are actually against instinctive behavior; one either relies on strong willpower or is forced into it.
Military-style management in class, only ten minutes to eat in the canteen, working overtime with a 996 schedule until death...
If everyone was born as the second generation of a rich family, carefree for a lifetime, who would idly choose to endure these hardships?
Wouldn’t it be sweeter to simply enjoy life?
Lin Baici understands everyone’s feelings, but there are some things he can’t say directly.
Hiding and waiting for rescue, this method is feasible, but the problem is, when will rescue come?
If only this Disneyland got polluted by the God and turned into God’s ruins, the Security Bureau would undoubtedly handle it immediately.
But Lin Baici just saw, this meteor shower shrouded the sky, affecting probably all of Haijing.
How many Divine Ruins would appear?
If the entire Capital City was enveloped in the God’s pollution, then the crisis would be even greater.
The first thing the Haijing Security Bureau needs to do is ensure the city’s vital facilities, guarantee the city runs safely, and supply daily necessities for a population of two to three million.
What would happen to security if food and drink are cut off?
Even aside from all this, places like Disneyland are far down the list for rescue by the Security Bureau.
Not to mention the influential figures, each research facility, laboratory personnel, schools, these places and people have high priority.
If everyone were at Haijing Polytechnic, chances are they would be rescued on time, but at Disneyland...
To put it bluntly, those trapped in Disneyland are definitely not as important as the entire faculty and students of a major university!
"Now that something has happened in Haijing, I can’t keep waiting here!"
Lin Baici looked at Hu Wenwu and the others: "My suggestion is to follow me, I will try my best to ensure your safety!"
"But if unexpected events occur, please don’t blame me!"
Lin Baici is not a God, he cannot guarantee the safety of so many people.
The group fell silent.
They realized that Lin Baici sincerely wanted to help them, but also understood that Lin Baici might face crises he couldn’t handle.
Death was still a possibility for everyone.
"I’ll go with you!"
Ji Xinyan was the first to express her stance.
Everyone glanced at Ji Xinyan, remaining silent.
They knew Ji Xinyan and Lin Baici had a good relationship, if she encountered danger, Lin Baici would fight to save her.
They certainly wouldn’t have that treatment.
"I’ll go with you!"
Liu Zilu expressed, intending to go with her good friend.
Tao Nai was about to speak, but Liu Yu interrupted.
"If you want to go, go, stop convincing us!"
Liu Yu chuckled, then looked at Liu Zilu: "Liu Zilu, do you have a screw loose?"
"Lin Baici will protect Ji Xinyan, will he protect you?"
Liu Zilu wanted to retort but had no confidence.
Because she knew she was just a classmate in Lin Baici’s eyes, receiving no special attention.
Everyone has their own little calculations.
If Lin Baici couldn’t cope, he would surely save Hu Wenwu and the others first, leaving her sidelined.
"Everyone, this must last eight hours!"
Liu Yu spoke eloquently: "Do you think that’s a long time? Too hard to endure?"
"Then think about it this way, eight hours should be enough for Old White to kill that Ghost King and find a way out, right?"
Those quick-witted already understood Liu Yu’s point.
Why risk following Lin Baici?
Lin Baici is eager to leave, surely striving to defeat the Ghost King, so they could find a place to hide and wait for the game to end.
Indeed, staying carries the risk of encountering the pollution of rules, but following Lin Baici ensures it will be encountered.
Hoping for Lin Baici’s protection is less reliable than gambling on their own luck, perhaps safely hiding until God’s ruins end?
Liu Yu followed Lin Baici previously, not knowing how strong Lin Baici was, wanting to learn some inside information about God Hunter.
Now he knew, allowing him to make the decision for the highest survival rate.
In fact, Liu Yu wanted to leave the team after a rule pollution ended, but unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned; from the start at the Forest Cottage, the pollutions continued without a moment’s pause.
If this continued, death was inevitable.
"If you want to stay, stay, why say all this?"
Fang Mingyuan was annoyed, wanting to punch Liu Yu.
"I’m trying to ensure everyone makes it out alive!"
Liu Yu appeared to care about his classmates, but actually wanted to retain more cannon fodder.
Once Lin Baici left, with his intellect, he could become the team leader; even if not, having more people to attract the ghosts’ attention would ensure his own safety.
Honestly, everyone was swayed by what Liu Yu said.
Find somewhere to hide and wait for Lin Baici to kill the Ghost King.
If he failed, they might be safe, and an eight-hour duration should see the Security Bureau’s rescue arrive.
If Lin Baici succeeded, they would certainly be safer, avoiding the dangerous adventure with him.
Though given Lin Baici’s character, he wouldn’t use them as cannon fodder, but what if...
Thinking it through seriously, staying seemed more practical.
The only issue was the symptoms of pollution they carried.
"I saw some people feeling nauseous and vomiting, looking unwell. You must be worried about dying from the pollution, wanting to quickly leave with Lin Baici, but consider this!"
