As everyone watched this terrifying scene, a tightness gripped their hearts, and fear spread within them.
In less than ten seconds, the man was cut in half by the vines, his legs falling to the ground, nearly hitting a classmate. That classmate, upon seeing the severed legs with exposed, bloody bones of his deceased peer, was so horrified that his face drained of color. He wanted to scream but couldn't produce a sound.
Even more gruesome, three or four more vines darted in, penetrating the gaping wound of the corpse, shredding the flesh and sucking up the blood. One classmate couldn't hold it in and vomited.
This all happened within just a few dozen seconds, and those who managed to react turned and fled. One classmate, pale with fear and with trembling legs, hesitated for just a moment before his body was lifted into the air; he didn't even have time to call for help before he died.
Yan Qing had not yet grasped what was happening when Tan Ming pulled him away to run. They sprinted together until they reached the commercial street, which was directly across from the supermarket.
They stopped at the entrance of a fast-food restaurant selling Huang Men Ji. The glass door was tightly shut at that moment, and half a person lay at the entrance, reaching out an arm towards the door with a terrified expression on his face.
This person had only his head and upper body left; his legs seemed to have been bitten off by something horrifically monstrous. A pile of leg bones lay scattered on the ground, a sight that was heart-wrenching.
The man's hair was strikingly yellow; Yan Qing recognized him immediately—it was that arrogant guy from the supermarket! It seemed that one should never be too boastful.
However, as Yan Qing thought about how just half an hour ago this person had been so full of life, now reduced to such a tragic end with a dismembered body, an indescribable sense of oppression surged within him.
"Classmates, where are you going?" At the street corner stood a group of five—three boys and two girls—who seemed to be discussing something. They blocked Yan Qing and Tan Ming's path upon seeing them.
Yan Qing exchanged glances with Tan Ming. "We're not going anywhere; where do you plan to go?" he asked in return.
One of them replied, "We plan to climb over the wall and leave the school. Only by leaving can we possibly escape the Death System's range and have any hope of survival."
"How do you know?" Tan Ming pressed for more information.
The classmate spoke with certainty: "Once the Death System is activated, we can't contact anyone outside the school at all. Our phones show that there is signal, yet we can’t reach anyone outside or communicate with classmates inside. So we suspect that the Death System has employed some special means to block communications within the school. As long as we can successfully escape from here, we will be safe!"
It seemed everyone had realized this fact. "But what if things inside are just as bad?"
"Don't forget, the Death System only activated after the Extreme Weather appeared," Tan Ming reminded.
The Extreme Weather affects everyone.
As for the inability to make calls, what if there's a twenty percent chance that it's a signal issue?
Moreover, if the Death System only targeted the school, how could it easily allow them to escape?
The classmate was suddenly at a loss for words, momentarily speechless.
