Chapter 195 - 176: Successful Escape
Chapter 195: Chapter 176: Successful Escape
The NPC teachers’ props are getting fewer and fewer. As they charge forward, they become confused, and those behind squeeze in, only to quickly end up equally confused.
Clearly, they only needed two rulers to assimilate Ji Xizhi, so what happened now?
The NPC teachers are all bewildered.
Only the two bandaged, limping NPCs, who just arrived at the back of the crowd, remain clear-headed. They’ve just come over and are greeted with this familiar yet shocking scene, inevitably recalling the pain of being tied up. If only it was just binding, but there’s also the retake!!!
The “retake” NPC brothers quietly step back a few steps. No, they must not let Ji Xizhi see them!
In the middle of the crowd, Ji Xizhi is standing among the fixed guests, hands full of loot.
She indeed has the highest assimilation value among all the guests, so logically, the other guests should protect her.
But the problem is —
Ji Xizhi has never been conventional since the recording started!
Before leaving the canteen, the guests had already discussed in advance.
They agreed to go out in the form of an ant group hug, but unlike the sacrifice and dedication in the story, their teamwork was merely a decoy for the NPC teachers at the door.
Ji Xizhi had been “provoking” the NPC teachers for so long, they were already annoyed, and since Ji Xizhi was the “weakest” at the scene, it was no surprise she became the first focus point.
The guests took this opportunity, ostensibly to protect Ji Xizhi, but in reality, they placed all their bets on her, making Ji Xizhi the main attacker of the Sherlock Holmes group of six.
As soon as the NPC teachers charged, Ji Xizhi would take away all their props.
As long as Ji Xizhi was fast enough, by the time the NPC teachers reacted, they would be evenly matched against them.
Now Ji Xizhi has almost confiscated all the NPC teachers’ props.
[So it was all a strategy! A strategy, they thought they were protecting Ji Xizhi, but they were using her as bait, ah hey, they really took the bait!]
[I was really worried just now, with so many NPCs swarming, I was afraid Zhi Zhi would be assimilated, later realized I overthought, I’m guilty!]
[Took a screenshot, debuting with the two students who escaped political retake classes haha~]
[Escaping student: ? Wtf, I’m a teacher! I’m a teacher!!!]
[Feeling sorry~]
Fans in the live broadcast room may say they feel sorry for the NPCs, but in reality, they’re clapping with laughter.
Ji Xizhi clutched a handful of props, doing a quick categorization in her hand, then tossed them to the other guests, “Catch.”
The props were tossed into the hands of different guests by Ji Xizhi.
The guests turned and received the official props from the program team.
Qiu Lin happily received a ruler: “First time getting an NPC’s prop, the quality is really good!”
Le Qiqi: “Me, me, me, I want two!”
Mo Anxia: “Feels great! My Six Meridian Divine Sword returns!”
Qian Huiyi and Xie Ming curiously touched them.
After everyone divvied up, two rulers per person, plus a bit of bandage in hand, they were fully armed.
The current situation was instantly reversed.
One second, the NPC teachers were arrogantly blocking with props; the next second, the props were all pointed at them.
The swaggering NPCs who were just like zombies besieging the city: “…!”
Le Qiqi wielded two rulers, grinning from ear to ear, eyes shining: “Hehe, we can break out now!”
Before, she had only run from NPCs and been scared by them.
Now it was different, with props in her hand, it was her time to shine.
Le Qiqi dropped her usual fearful stance and charged out first, wielding her weapon with abandon.
The other guests were all stunned.
The show’s number one slacker made a comeback?!
“Qiqi, you’ve got quite the power burst!”
[That’s morale, hahaha, with and without a weapon in hand, of course, the combat power is different!]
[Indeed, Qiqi isn’t afraid of ghosts now! (Though at this moment, looking at the ghosts’ expressions, they indeed don’t seem that scary!)]
[Hahaha Le Qiqi couldn’t cure her fear of ghosts in two seasons of the jungle chase, but Ji Xizhi cured it in one episode! Isn’t this more effective than spending money?]
With props in the guests’ hands, plus the fact NPCs had never encountered such a ridiculous situation, the guests quickly seized the chance and cleared a path.
Breaking free from the blockade, the six of them bolted all the way.
Director Xu already collapsed: “Quick, announce that Ji Xizhi has been assimilated!!!”
The assistant director next to him, who had seen everything, advised: “Director, perhaps you should check the trending topics first?”
Director Xu: “What’s on the trending list again?!”
Director Xu’s pupils trembled as he opened the hottest video.
Soon, he was celebrated as “Uncle Xu.”
Old Wang next door: @Director Xu Congratulations!!!
The two big square dance CPs were reunited at this moment.
Accompanied by the program’s broadcast saying, “Congratulations to all guests, successfully escaped!”
The background was the sound of fireworks specially set by Director Xu before filming.
–
With everyone successfully escaping, the guests panted, but had never felt this happy before.
Le Qiqi raised her weapon and shouted, “That was great~ This is what a jungle chase should be!!! If every time we could escape like this, wouldn’t that be fun!”
Director Xu: ?
Dead, let’s burn paper and mourn!
The NPC teachers chased all the way, watching the guests escape successfully, each bent over, their expressions like fatherly figures watching the guests.
If their makeup hadn’t been smudged by sweat.
[Hmm, never thought the NPC makeup looked scary, now smudged, it does seem a bit eerie!]
[Laughing, NPCs have no way out now!]
After the guests finished running, they stayed to rest, waiting for the final recording.
Instead, it was Ji Xizhi who had done the most, she ran all the way here without panting and earnestly tidied up the props she had just snatched.
Then she turned back and carefully returned them to the NPC teachers one by one, bandaging each hand and head, striving for an exact match.
“Thank you, giving them back to you.”
The NPC teachers panted heavily, their expressions fierce: “No, Teacher Ji, it’s we who should thank you!!!”
[Borrowed and returned, easy to borrow again?]
[Insane hahaha, if you say this to NPCs now, they might just die in front of you!]
