Chapter 128 National Destiny: The Evil Cultivator’s Playground 16

Lily frowned, her eyes wandering around the bright campus, as if looking for some potential threat. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner tension and anxiety. At this time, a gentle male teacher walked towards them, with a warm smile on his face, giving people a sense of intimacy.

"Students, welcome to our school." The male teacher's voice was gentle but powerful. He stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhu Lili and the others one by one. "I am your homeroom teacher, my last name is Li. I heard that you transferred from other schools. I hope you can have a good time here."

Zhu Lili responded politely, but her heart was full of doubts. She looked up and around. This school looked no different from other schools, with green trees, neatly arranged teaching buildings, and students playing happily on the playground. However, it was this seeming normality that made her feel a little uneasy.

"Teacher Li, what should we do next?" Qian Zhe asked, his tone revealing confusion about the unknown.

"Oh, you need to pick up your school uniforms and books first." Teacher Li smiled and pointed to the teaching building in front. "The library is over there, and the administrator will prepare them for you. I'll go with you."

The four of them followed Teacher Li to the library. Along the way, they saw students chatting in groups of three or four, and occasionally heard their cheerful laughter. All this made Zhu Lili feel a little unreal, and she couldn't help but start to doubt whether she had really escaped from the previous terrifying world.

When they arrived at the library, a fat, big-eared uncle in his 50s came to greet them. He looked very enthusiastic, with a smile on his face, giving people a kind and amiable feeling.

"Are you new students?" the uncle asked in a loud and powerful voice. "I'm the administrator here, my last name is Zhang. I'll help you prepare school uniforms and books."

Uncle Zhang took them to a spacious room filled with various books and school uniforms. He skillfully picked out several sets of school uniforms and books and handed them to Zhu Lili and the others.

"These are your school uniforms and books." Uncle Zhang said with a smile, "I hope you like them. If you need any help, you can always come to me."

Zhu Lili took the school uniform and books, but she felt something strange in her heart. These school uniforms and books looked very new, as if they had never been used. She looked up at Uncle Zhang, trying to find some clues from his face, but Uncle Zhang's smile was still so kind, as if everything was normal.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang." Zhu Lili responded politely, but she was full of vigilance. In the previous life, they were almost wiped out in this harmless situation.

There can't be any mistakes this time.

After receiving the school uniforms and books, Teacher Li led them to the dormitory building. On the way, Zhu Lili held Chi Meng's hand tightly, her eyes full of vigilance. She looked around from time to time, fearing that something unexpected would happen. Liu Lei and Qian Zhe followed behind them. Although they also had doubts in their hearts, seeing Zhu Lili so nervous, they did not dare to act rashly.

"Students, this is our dormitory building." Teacher Li pointed to a building in front and said, "The boys' dormitory and the girls' dormitory are separate, so you have to go separately."

Zhu Lili nodded and said to Liu Lei and Qian Zhe, "You must be careful and don't make any unnecessary movements. Everything must be in line with your status as a student." After that, she took Chi Meng's hand and followed the female dormitory manager into the girls' dormitory building.

Four students were already living in the dormitory, and they greeted Zhu Lili and Chi Meng enthusiastically. Zhu Lili responded with a smile, but in her heart she was thinking about how to find out the situation here as soon as possible. She looked around and found that the facilities in the dormitory were quite complete, but she always felt something was wrong. She quietly pulled Chi Meng's sleeve, signaling her to stay alert.

After the dormitory manager put the sheets and blankets on the empty beds, he left and told them to start classes tomorrow. Zhu Lili and Chi Meng quickly made their beds and sat beside them to discuss countermeasures.

"Sister Li, do you think it's really safe here?" Chi Meng asked in a low voice.

Zhu Lili shook her head and said, "I'm not sure either, but we have to be careful."

The two discussed for a while and decided to adapt to the life here first, and then slowly explore the situation here. They decided to take turns to keep watch at night, just in case.

After making the bed, Zhu Lili and Chi Meng went downstairs to the bottom of the boys' dormitory. Liu Lei and Qian Zhe had already come down, and they were relieved to see that Zhu Lili and the other two were safe and sound.

"How is it? Is everything okay in the dormitory?" Liu Lei asked.

Zhu Lili nodded and said, "It's okay, but I just feel something is wrong. What about you? Have you found anything?"

Qian Zhe shook his head and said, "We didn't find anything unusual. There were just a few people living in the dormitory, and they all looked normal."

Zhu Lili pondered for a while and said, "We still have to be careful. Although this place looks ordinary, it always feels like something is wrong. We need to find out what's going on here as soon as possible."

Liu Lei nodded and said, "That's right, we have to find a way to see what's going on here."

At this time, they saw a small shop not far away and decided to go there to check the situation. After all, they would have to stay here for a few more days, so food and supplies became a problem.

When they arrived at the store, they found a notice on the door: "Students of this school can purchase goods with campus cards." Zhu Lili and the others looked at each other, feeling somewhat puzzled. They didn't have any money, only campus cards, and wondered if they could buy food.

Liu Lei thought for a moment and said, "Let me go in and take a look first." Then he put on his glasses and walked into the store.

After a while, Liu Lei came out with a lighter and a smile on his face. He said, "We can use the campus card to buy goods. I just tried it and I still have 500 yuan in my campus card."

Zhu Lili and the others were relieved when they heard this. They walked into the store and bought some food and flashlights. Zhu Lili specifically requested the flashlights because she wanted to have a lighting tool when exploring the school at night.

After purchasing everything, they went to the library to see if they could find any other clues. After all, the big bed hidden in the secret compartment appeared in the library, and the nightmare staircase was also in the library, which was enough to show that this library played an important role in this copy.

After arriving at the library, Uncle Zhang saw them coming again and greeted them warmly: "You are here again? Is there anything else you need help with?"

Zhu Lili smiled and said, "Thank you Uncle Zhang for your concern. We just want to come and look at some books." As she spoke, she pointed to the bookshelf next to her.

Uncle Zhang nodded and said, "Then you guys watch it. If you need any help, you can always come to me." After that, he went back to his office, sat there with his legs crossed, and watched videos on his phone.
