The untied Rolling Turtle should be able to bite off the vines, so Li Pu didn't think Wu Guinan would be completely entangled.

He wasted a lot of time here. If he didn't catch up, he might have finished second to last.

So he led the straw man to quicken his pace, and it didn't take long for them to reach a fork in the road.

"I think I said before that the obstacles you encounter will be different depending on the path you choose."

Standing in front of the fork in the road, Li Pu raised his chin.

The advantage of walking behind a large group is that you can observe where everyone is going.

He is quite experienced in how to pay attention to footprints in dense forests.

At this time, the forked road in front of us is divided into four paths, two of which are messy and have many footprints, and the other one has fewer footprints.

As for the one on the far side, there are almost no footprints.

Because the light crystals that guide the direction are only installed on those three roads, and the last fork in the road is not.

In other words, this road may not be considered a racing venue.

"Maybe there's a chance to take a shortcut?"

Li Pu changed his mind.

Since we are in the same woods, even if it is not a recommended road section, the last road is not likely to be too dangerous.

He has a good sense of direction and also has a certain degree of wilderness experience.

Taking a shortcut from a direction where no one is around might be a good choice.

He didn't listen carefully when the senior sister explained the rules just now, but she didn't seem to say that she must follow Guangjing, right?

In fact, the other party didn't really mention it.

Moreover, it was deliberately not mentioned.

Originally, one of the purposes of this competition was to allow everyone to adapt to the world of summoners.

Unlike writing answers on a test paper, in reality most of the time there is no standard answer that is 100% correct.

Some rules are meant to be broken.

In fact, among the freshmen, it is not that no one noticed this.

But the mentality of following the crowd is there, and if you have an idea, you still have an idea, and you still need to be brave to put it into practice.

Therefore, few freshmen who have no relevant experience dare to try it.

Only a few people try it secretly.

There is no doubt that Li Pu must be the brave type.

So I didn't think about it for too long and chose the fourth path on the edge.

As a result, he had just walked in a few steps when a big tree next to him suddenly made a sound.

【Ahem...】

The big tree was very close to them, especially the near-grass man.

【Grass!】

Grass Man: Grass! There is a sneak attack from a monster!

Being frightened, it directly raised its foot and kicked it sideways, towards the big tree that made the sound.

Boom!

Then Li Pu saw a figure holding his stomach and falling to the ground.

Plop!

"..."

Now he could see clearly.

The one who made the sound just now was not a monster at all, but a person.

Not just a person, but an acquaintance.

The head of their dormitory often teaches business seniors.

"Senior, are you okay?"

It can be seen that the current standing professors are in great pain.

After all, the straw man kicked him in the belly with all his strength, which was not that pleasant.

【Church! Catch!】

Straw man: Accidental injury! Sorry, sorry!

"I'm fine...I'm used to it."

Chang Shushang, whose face turned pale, stood up and waved his hand, only to find that a bottle of Coke had been thrust into his hand.

For the current straw man, this may be the highest level way to express apology.

Of course, it's the smallest bottle.

"..."

For a moment, Chang Shangshang didn't know what to say.

At present, most senior students have not returned to school, so organizing the course selection competition is slightly lacking in manpower.

Chang Shushang was also captured by his senior sister, otherwise who would be willing to squat in this shabby forest so early in the morning.

The task he was assigned was actually to remind or warn all students who chose the fourth fork in the road.

Those who dare to choose this path can be considered to be relatively flexible in thinking among the freshmen at this stage.

However, whether this is good or bad cannot be determined immediately.

"Actually, this competition has an unstated purpose."

"That is to encourage everyone to broaden their minds and break out of the rigid habits they have developed in school."

"So taking shortcuts and shortcuts is allowed."

"But I need to remind you here that if you go any further, you will lose the illumination of the light crystal."

"If you get lost, you will most likely be eliminated."

"It's up to you to decide whether you want to take this risk."

Chang Shushang said a few more words to Li Pu, which was considered a kind of care.

For the freshmen just now, he simply reminded the matte crystal ahead to pay attention to safety and that was it.

Anyway, the fog will dissipate when the sun rises three poles, and even if you get lost, you won't be able to lose it.

"Thank you, senior, for reminding me."

Li Pu could sense the other party's kindness, nodded his thanks and moved on.

【Grass!】

Straw man: If you don’t drink the coke, can you return it to me?

The straw man walked a few steps and then turned back. Unfortunately, Chang Shuishang certainly couldn't understand the cursory language.

"Why don't you just follow me and have a look."

After watching everyone leave, he thought for a while.

Judging from the time, there should be no new students who have not reached the fork in the road by now.

In other words, my mission has been successfully completed.

I followed Li Pu because after all, this boy belongs to the dormitory under his control.

Although there is no big danger in this forest, you can still take care of it.

Of course, Chang Shishang knew that if he made a move, Li Pu would be eliminated.

Therefore, unless it is an extreme situation, he will not take action.

As for this natural mist, it’s not a problem for me.

"Ouch yaaaah!"

With a cry of pain, Chang Shushang took out a fist-sized light crystal from the storage space.

With this light crystal, one can easily follow Li Pu's footsteps and follow them from a distance.

…

ten minutes later.

"..."

Li Pu stood in the mist, a little speechless.
