spooky invasion

Chapter 1519 People are panicked
Scholar Yun Geng was indeed frightened, and his attitude of giving up made it impossible for others to do anything to him. Coincidentally, the Scholar Tongye opposite him also had the same attitude of giving up, and the so-called scolding was just a show.

Scholar Yun Geng could not see this, but Jiang Yue could see it clearly. A purple-gold ribbon university scholar and a bachelor had this mentality. It was obvious that the mentality of the Earth Core Clan had indeed changed after repeated setbacks. A doomsday mentality could be seen in many people.

Perhaps, in their view, the genes of the Earth Core Tribe have been infiltrated by the surface humans, so what future do they have? No matter how this battle is fought, the Earth Core Tribe is doomed to have no future.

Fortunately, at this time, the ground surged, and another person suddenly crawled out from the ground in a panic. It turned out to be a team member who escaped the disaster by using the ground walking technique.

This person was one of the four people who were going to split up and act alone. Jiang Yue didn't remember his name, but Tongye University Scholar recognized him.

"Aqi, what's wrong with you? Where are the others?" The Tongye Grand Secretary hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Although this guy named Aqi escaped with his life, his condition was not very good. He had many injuries, but at least his life was safe. However, his whole body was black, as if he had just been pulled out of a pile of coal. Even his hair stood up, as if he had a trendy hairstyle, which made him look ridiculous.

But at this moment, this person's face no longer had the previous rebelliousness, nor could he see any arrogance. Instead, there was a hint of fear and relief at surviving the disaster.

Seeing that he looked confused and hadn't come to his senses yet, the Tongye Grand Secretary couldn't help but shout, "I'm asking you a question. What's wrong? Did the enemy destroy your brain?"

After being warned like this, Aqi finally came to his senses a little, especially when he saw Master Yun Geng and Jiang Yue standing in front of him. A hint of shame flashed across his charcoal-black face.

"Uh... Master Tongye, what did you just say?"

"Let me ask you about the others?" The Tongye Grand Secretary was secretly disappointed when he saw this guy's distraught look. He could have exposed the matter the day before yesterday if nothing happened, but he was so distraught and behaved so badly after something happened.

"Others... I don't know about the others. I am not on the same path as them. I am doing my own thing." This answer is obviously unsatisfactory.

"So what's the situation on your end?"

"I...ah!" Ah Qi was so ashamed that he couldn't bring himself to tell his experience in front of Master Yun Geng and Jiang Yue. Especially since he had threatened to split his troops into several groups and vowed that he could handle it.

He was one of the players who most strongly advocated leaving the team. The contrast between his current horrible appearance and his previous bold words was obviously full of irony and great contrast.

Scholar Yun Geng said expressionlessly, "It seems that this brother named Aqi is not as capable as he is arrogant! When we divided the troops before, you all were very arrogant, as if if we didn't divide the troops, we would hold you back."

If it was Aqi in normal times, who would dare to ridicule him like this? Not even you, the Yun Geng scholar. But now, he was really ashamed. He wanted to retaliate, but he couldn't find any words.

"Don't just blame me, you guys are not much better either, are you? We risked our lives to conduct reconnaissance and collect information about the enemy, but you guys escaped back ahead of time?" Aqi bit back directly.

I don't care about face or anything like that, I've lost it anyway. But you, Master Yun Geng, want to mock me, how are you any better than me? As the commander-in-chief, you escaped first, how dare you say that?

The Tongye Grand Secretary shouted, "Don't talk nonsense. Yun Geng and his companions just arrived. And they had to return only because the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao personally gave the order."

After all, Bachelor Yun Geng is a member of the Taiyi Academy. When necessary, Tongye will naturally protect his face and give him a way out. He cannot let him lose face in front of people outside the academy.

The Hydraulic Engineering Bachelor left the Five Elements Academy and was recruited by the Bell Flower Bachelor to the Taiyi Academy. These two, in a sense, are our own people, the children of the Taiyi Academy.

A Qi was scolded, but he was unwilling to give up. He glanced around Yun Geng, but didn't find anyone else. There were only the two of them at the scene.

"Humph, if I remember correctly, there were three of you on this trip, right? How come only two of you came back? Did you escape by stepping on the dead bodies of your teammates?"

This is a typical case of the bad guy filing a complaint first.

Scholar Yun Geng was so angry that he almost went berserk: "Stop talking nonsense, you have no discipline, you like to work alone, you messed up everything, and you dare to bite back? If you bastards didn't insist on working alone, the seven of us would be together, even if we were ambushed, we could take care of each other and get out of here safely!"

Who wouldn't pass the buck? And Yun Geng was standing on the side of justice.

Logically speaking, these guys disobeyed the arrangements, were self-righteous, unorganized and undisciplined, and insisted on leaving the team to work on their own. They are definitely the culprits. If we really want to hold someone accountable, we should first hold these guys who left the team accountable.

But now it seems that I am afraid that others will not be able to pursue it, and most likely they will not be able to come back. It has been quite a while since the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao spoke, and most of those who can escape have already escaped, just like the three of them.

Aqi said angrily: "As the head coach, you abandoned your teammates. Do you think you are right? What's wrong with me working alone? I said I can take care of myself. At least I managed to protect myself and come back. What about you? There was another person with you. Where did he go? Did you arrange for him to cover your escape?"

The blame is getting more and more outrageous.

Not only could Scholar Yun Geng not listen any more, even Scholar Tongye could not listen any more.

"Aqi, shut up!" the Tongye Grand Secretary scolded.

Aqi was angry, but still looked reluctant.

Fortunately, at this time, the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao finally couldn't sit still anymore and quickly came to the scene. The other team members who participated in the beheading plan had not been arranged to act before, and they had been staying in the camp. At this time, they were also called to the central army tent by the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao.

This was originally the main camp of the Yun Geng scholar, but now it has been requisitioned by the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao. Yun Geng has completely become a marginalized figure and has been taken over by the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao.

Yun Geng had no complaints. At this point, he knew that his ability and qualifications were far from enough to handle such a big task. It would be best to let the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao take charge of the overall situation. Otherwise, his little shoulders would definitely collapse.

Supreme Elder Yin Qiao was obviously very angry; this battle caught him off guard.

His eyes swept over each team member with obvious anger.

"Didn't I remind you a long time ago that you should follow my orders in all actions? To cheer you up? To forget your previous status? To regard yourself as an ordinary team member?"

"Did you do it?"

The Supreme Elder Yin Qiao slammed the table and shouted, "Until now, you still can't let go of your so-called airs, can't forget your previous identities, and think of yourselves as unique geniuses. I might as well tell you clearly that what is needed here is not geniuses, but executors who can be down-to-earth, calm, and pay attention to details!"

"What's the point of being a genius? I've lived for thousands of years, and there are at least dozens of geniuses of my generation who are better than me, but the number of those who are still alive can be counted on one hand. And even these few peers were not considered the top geniuses when we were young."

“The aura of a genius is not useless, but if one always has the aura of a genius and his character is not tempered, such a genius will fall as quickly as a meteor!”

"The Earth's Core World has never lacked geniuses, nor has it lacked the so-called geniuses who are arrogant and conceited. What it lacks is the strong character and the handsome people who know what they want to do at every step. Only such people can go far, be successful, and solve problems every time they encounter them instead of being solved by them. Just now, you sent out six people, but only two came back. Do you know what this means?"

All the team members looked at each other in bewilderment. Especially the dozen or so team members who had not taken action before, they were even more surprised. They had six team members dispatched before, but only two returned? Then what about the remaining four team members?
Has it already fallen?

For a moment, the atmosphere on the scene became a little tense. Under the pressure of Supreme Elder Yin Qiao, they did not dare to whisper to each other, but from their eye contact, they could clearly see each other's surprise, and even a little panic.

How come four members died out of nowhere? It was just a valley, wasn't it? It didn't look like a Jedi. How could being watched by a group of bandits be so terrifying?
Everyone present was an outstanding talent selected from all over the place. Although they were arrogant, they also knew that no one who was selected would be trash. It can be said that everyone was capable of standing on their own and was the best of the Earth Core Clan.

In such a short time, four were destroyed. The damage rate is too high. What the hell is going on in this place? The gate of hell?
Seeing that Grand Elder Yinqiao was getting a little angry, the Scholar Tongye stepped forward and advised: "Lord Yinqiao, the enemy may be more difficult than we imagined. These guys haven't adjusted their mentality, haven't responded in time, haven't matched their opponents in mentality, and haven't paid enough attention..."

Grand Elder Yin Qiao waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Grand Secretary Tongye: "You don't have to smooth things over and speak for them. If they were rookies, I wouldn't lose my temper. But they are not. Each of them is not a rookie. They can even be said to be experienced veterans, and they are already established figures. I am really disappointed that they behaved so badly. It seems that there is really no successor to my inner world."

Although this old man is old, he is indeed a man of bad temper. During this call, he undoubtedly opened fire, scolding everyone present, and even the younger generations who were not present were all attacked by him.

The Grand Secretary of Tongye was speechless for a while. You are so young now, can't you be more polite and reserved when speaking?
If you attack in this way, do you still need these people? Do you still expect them to fight for your life in this decapitation plan? What if they give up on you?
Of course, although Tongye University Scholar thought so in his heart, he certainly didn't say it out loud. His mentality was to just let it go.

It would be best if the action was interrupted here, everyone went back home, and then made long-term plans.

In short, the place that Tongye University Scholar least wanted to go was the surface world, especially the Dazhang Kingdom. He didn't want to tear his face with the surface humans. That would really kill people.

Elder Yin Qiao was still not satisfied, and said angrily: "I will say one more thing to you. If you continue to hold this mentality, I guarantee that none of you will be able to reach the surface world alive, let alone carry out the next plan."

Someone couldn't help but say, "Master Yin Qiao, isn't this a bit alarmist? Even if a few masters sneak in, with so many elite soldiers like us, we can still suppress them one by one, right? Maybe we underestimated the enemy before, but under your leadership, can't we still deal with a group of bandits?"

"Yes, you are right. We should be brave and know our shame. Let us go to battle this time. You should personally lead us. I don't believe that we can't defeat a bunch of bandits."

"I promise, I'll beat the shit out of them."

The face of Grand Elder Yin Qiao became increasingly ugly, and he shouted, "Everyone, shut up!"

"Who told you that the enemy is just a group of bandits?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Could it be that they were bandits? In the inner world, who else but bandits would dare to be so blatant and bring a large number of people to intercept their escort team? It couldn't be the official team of the major forces, right? No matter how bold they were, they couldn't be so blatant, right?

Are the convoys that robbed Taiyi Academy and the Golden Clan so undisguised now? Have these big forces really become paper tigers?

The Tongye Grand Secretary stepped forward again to ease the atmosphere: "Everyone, you need to change your mindset. At first everyone thought they were just a group of bandits, but the facts gave us a big slap in the face. Yun Geng, A Qi, you have all fought against the enemy, tell us about the situation."

Bachelor Yun Geng did not shirk his responsibility. He first reported the annihilation of his elite troops, and then told the truth about his experiences along the way.

"Everyone, I can guarantee that everything I said is true, and the Hydraulic Bachelor can also testify to that. The three of us were ambushed by the enemy. The Hydraulic Bachelor and I advocated retreating first, but the genius of the Nine-Tailed Clan insisted on staying and killing a few enemies. Then, after a few rounds, we were separated by the local forces. When he fell, the Hydraulic Bachelor and I both tried to rescue him, but the situation at the time..."

At this time, the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao said calmly: "You don't need to explain. I can testify that you did not abandon your teammates at the first moment. It's not your fault for the situation at that time. It was I who urged you to escape."

Scholar Yun Geng breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that Grand Elder Yin Qiao could be so reasonable.
