Chapter 99 Sour Gas
Seeing the team leader instructor suddenly appear in front of him, Jiang Hui breathed a sigh of relief.
She is not familiar with the stars. This place looks eerie even before it gets dark, and some of the shadows in the corners look scary. You can imagine how scary it would be here after nightfall. She couldn't just stay here and wait for someone from the school to come find her.
The instructor found it just because he didn’t know what to do.
"?" Jiang Hui was like a stupid goose, unable to control himself and making a stupid sound.
Then she quickly realized that the other party was probably trying to persuade her to give up.
"Since you know you are trying your best, you should stop the loss in time, otherwise you will harm others and yourself. If you continue like this, you will only drag others down." Metz said to the girl.
In fact, these words were almost pointing out that she was holding back. Jiang Hui felt that his face was quite thick-skinned, and his face felt a little warm.
"Just wait here. There is a temporary tent for your luggage. You are safe in it for the time being. I have notified the observation center. Someone should come to pick you up after the formation. Don't follow the team anymore. "
...After all that, what else can she do?
Jiang Hui is not such a perseverant person, but she is used to doing things from beginning to end, and she must continue on the path she chooses no matter how difficult it is. So she followed along all the way, not wanting to be the one who succumbs to comfort.
But now someone pointed at her nose and told her that she was hindering her and holding her back, she was purely redundant, and any anger she had was almost gone.
Fortunately, the instructor was not really so hard-hearted. He seemed worried that Jiang Hui would not be able to use the temporary tent, so he gave her instructions on how to install it, and then abandoned her without looking back.
Jiang Hui watched the other party's back for a long time. When the night was completely dark, he turned around and entered the temporary tent.
So... her training session ended in such an anticlimactic manner? Now you just need to lie down and wait for someone to pick you up?
It's said to be a temporary tent, but the quality is really good. It probably uses space storage technology. It's quite spacious for one person to sit inside. And from the inside, it feels a bit like a metal structure. It feels very light when you lift it, but it feels very heavy in the hand. It's sharp and feels somewhat safe when lying down.
She might as well just lie down and wait...
No! What if you fall asleep in this wilderness and can't wake up?
Of course Jiang Hui couldn't really sleep with such a heart. Even in this airtight tent, she would have a constant sense of terror, as if she was a little sheep in the hunting range of a ferocious beast.
The more terrifying it is when you can’t see it.
Jiang Hui felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have listened to the instructor's threats and stalked her to keep up. She is not a person with such a sense of collective honor, but she cherishes her life more than anyone else. What if she stays here alone?
So——
When will the school pick her up?
————————————
“This session is not bad, and the progress is almost to the last station.” The people at the observation center on the other side looked at One lap, I already know it in my heart.
"Has anyone arrived?"
"...Not yet. We have reached the last level. It will probably take a while. I don't know which team will be able to break through the encirclement and arrive first." The person who spoke was wearing the same clothes. The difference between the teacher's uniform and the first-year one is that the logo on the chest is different. "In this way, the last station level should be the most critical finale. Teacher Vic can disclose it conveniently. I heard that this part was designed by your second graders. The ambush last year was really exciting. Give those little brats a good time. Learned a lesson.”
“As you said, I hope these guys will pay attention and stop being ignorant of the importance. This brat was reckless and almost hurt the freshman's eyes, otherwise it would have been a problem whether the school could continue to open today." The second-year class teacher shook his head and laughed.
So this time the last station is also an actual ambush? The others had already heard what the other person meant and guessed the last test of the training.
In some places, it has basically started. With fewer people talking, all the class instructors are concentrating on checking the pictures that are pointed in front of them. Because of the cross-recording method, no one noticed that several real-time monitored images were missing, and they seemed to disappear out of thin air.
————————————
Jiang Hui has been waiting in place for a long time. From the beginning, he was more and more doubtful.
Did the lead instructor really contact the observation center on her behalf? Or is this the school's rule? You have to wait until the training is completed before you can rescue the person who is stranded... Knowing that she was waiting at the temporary shelter so early, she wouldn't be feeding mosquitoes in the wilderness now.
Jiang Hui's optical brain is not in his hand, and he does not have a tool like a clock that can confirm the time. He can only judge the time based on his general feeling. She felt like this would take an hour or two.
She became more and more restless as she waited in the confined space.
"..." Jiang Hui suddenly sniffed.
I don’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt that there was suddenly a strange acidic smell in the air, which had been light but now gradually became stronger.
It is normal for special smells to escape in the jungle. She occasionally smelled some special plant smells on the mountain, which were sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, and some seemed to be synaesthetic. mean. After walking there for a while, Jiang Hui felt that his sense of smell had been trained a lot and he would no longer react easily to strange smells.
But she has never smelled any kind of sour gas with obvious biological characteristics like this one. It is more sour than sour gas, sour gas with a rancid smell.
This is a scent that makes human beings feel very uncomfortable.
The smell became stronger and accompanied by strong irritation. Jiang Hui felt that something was wrong all over his body. His skin, exposed membranes, eyes and nose, mouth and throat, as well as the invisible nervous system inside, started to feel uncomfortable. I felt extremely uncomfortable both externally and internally, and my heart kept beating "dong-dong-dong" in the inner cavity.
Obviously the respiratory system is normal, Jiang Hui can feel that his breath is coming in and out normally, but he always has a suffocating feeling as if he is blocked by some kind of breath both inside and outside, making him unable to breathe.
I can’t bear it anymore.
Jiang Hui carefully poked his head out of the tent with a lantern in hand.
The only bright spot in the dark environment was her. There was no one coming or going, and there were no so-called rescuers. Jiang Hui seemed to be left alone under this dark sky.
She didn't have time to panic about this. She couldn't help but take a long breath, which had the unique smell of grass and trees in the wilderness. The space was also filled with the sour smell that almost suffocated her just now, but maybe because The air flows more frequently in an open place, so it doesn't feel so suffocating.
She was almost suffocated in the tent just now.
