81: Chapter 80: Overnight Fa_1 81: Chapter 80: Overnight Fa_1 The playground was in chaos.
The area ravaged by the rabid dog was like a violent storm, rapidly expanding.
Nobody wanted to be bitten by a dog, let alone a rabid one.
Leaving aside the possibility of disfigurent, one could actually contract rabies.
Who could withstand that?
The piercing screams of the girls and their desperate attempts to flee only intensified the panic.
“Get out of the way!”
Lin Baici bellowed as he swung the flagpole in his hands to push aside two girls who were running headlessly, about to collide with him, then he powered his legs and started sprinting.
He was more than sixty ters away from the rabid dog.
But it was already too late to run over there.
A girl was knocked down, her military training hat falling off as her black hair unraveled.
Everyone around her had fled, so naturally, the rabid dog targeted her.
Grr!
The dog growled lowly, its fangs exposed wide, and fiercely pounced with its target being the girl’s head—if it bit down, she would not only be skinned, but also be forever traumatized.
As Lin Baici ran, he tightened his grip on the flagpole in his right hand, lifted it up like a javelin, positioned it over his shoulder, then took two big strides forward as he powerfully kicked off the ground, swiftly twisting his waist and swinging his arm like shooting an arrow from a bent bow, and he hurled the flagpole.
Whiz!
The flagpole shot out, with a tearing sound as it split the air.
Zhu Qiu Nan was completely petrified, the rabid dog’s front legs already pressing on her shoulders, the imnse force directly toppling her, followed by a nasty, dirty dog’s head extending towards her, and the viscous saliva from its mouth spattered everywhere.
It landed on her chest, neck, and face.
A foul stench emanated from the dog’s mouth, instinctively causing Zhu Qiu Nan to retch, wanting to vomit.
“Hurry, hit the dog!”
“Stop running around, a stampede will happen!”
“Block it!”
The surrounding shouts forcibly entered her ears, but Zhu Qiu Nan couldn’t hear them anymore, all she could see was the dog’s head growing swiftly larger before her eyes.
Then the next instant, just when the drooling dog’s mouth was about to bite her, a red shadow entered her vision from the corner of her eye, slicing through the air and lodging in the dog’s belly.
Thwack!
After the red shadow hit the rabid dog, the huge inertia pulled the dog off her, and it slid seven or eight ters away.
Zhu Qiu Nan imdiately felt her body lighten.
She instinctively turned her head to look at the rabid dog, but then a boy ca sprinting over, striding past right over her.
His legs were so long, his fra so tall; when he blocked the sunlight, the shadow cast was like dark clouds enveloping the sky, completely obscuring the day.
Thump!
The boy landed on one foot, crossing seven or eight ters in two steps, appearing in front of the rabid dog, and grabbed the flagpole lodged in the dog.
Yes,
Zhu Qiu Nan this ti saw it clearly.
It was a flagpole; the red flag that had been rolled around it was slowly unfolding.
It was the Flagbearer!
He yanked the flagpole out, then thrust it forcefully into the head of the dog that was struggling to stand up and bite him.
Thwack!
The steel flagpole penetrated the dog’s brain; with that blow, the dog stopped moving, and a stream of black blood flowed from its wound, diffusing and forming a pool.
The instructors ran over, two of them helping Zhu Qiu Nan up, while the rest stood still, looked at the rabid dog, then at Lin Baici, their gazes filled with shock.
“Holy shit, what did this kid just do?”
About thirty or forty ters away, he killed that mad dog with a flagpole?
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, the instructors would never believe it.
Is this really sothing a human can do?
The national flag held by Lin Baici conforms to standard dinsions, 192 centiters long and 128 centiters high, with the flagpole made of a hollow steel tube, around three ters in length.
This thing is not light; ordinary people would get tired holding it up with both hands after a while.
And now this freshman just treated it like a javelin, throwing it tens of ters in such a critical situation to accurately impale a mad dog?
This is way too aweso.
“Bai Ci, well done!”
Instructor Li ran over, excitedly patting Lin Baici’s chest.
This was a student he had taught, and he had really made him proud.
“You exercise regularly, right?”
“This muscle strength is pretty impressive!”
“It’s not about strength, it’s about being able to land a hit on the mad dog with one throw in such an urgent situation.
What kind of judgnt and courage is that?”
The instructors chattered among themselves.
Anyway, if it were any of them, even if they could throw the flagpole that far, they wouldn’t dare to do it.
What if it hurt soone?
That would be a big problem.
Lin Baici smiled and turned to look at the girl.
Her legs were weak, and she could barely stand up with the help of an instructor.
She noticed Lin Baici’s gaze and imdiately t it.
“Thank you!”
Whimper, whimper.
Zhu Qiunan finished speaking, and, frightened by the recent scare, started to cry.
If she had been bitten, her face would have been ruined.
What would she do then?
For a girl, a pretty face is more important than life itself.
[A delicious dessert, won’t you take a bite?]
“You’re welco!”
Lin Baici rubbed his right arm with his left hand.
He had exerted too much force just now and definitely strained his muscle; it was sowhat painful now.
“You must be a student with special sports skills, right?
You ran so fast!”
One of the instructors remarked.
Although they were quite far from the scene, they were all military n with decent explosive power.
But compared with this young man, they were simply too slow, like old grannies on the road.
With his tall stature and long legs, he ran with large strides, like a racing horse, the visual impact was,
absolutely amazing!
With the mad dog dead, the students finally stopped running and looked this way, abuzz with chaotic discussions.
“Holy shit, what did I just see?
A deity!”
“That flagbearer is just too badass, right?”
“With that kind of coolness, not to ntion the right to court soone for four years in college, the right to mate is secured!”
The freshn were all abuzz.
This ti when they talked about soone being handso, it wasn’t about Lin Baici’s looks, but rather the way he ran like a teor and speared the mad dog with one throw.
Wasn’t that cooler than those idol dramas with pretty young actors?
The school leadership finally arrived.
They first checked on the two students who had been bitten, then expressed concern for Zhu Qiunan, who had nearly been bitten, and finally it was Lin Baici’s turn.
“Well done.
In the face of danger, you had the courage to stand up, brave and passionate.
You can be called a hero.”
The principal praised him.
He was truly grateful to Lin Baici.
At today’s performance report, there were city TV station reporters present.
If a mad dog had disrupted the event, it would have definitely beco an indelible stain on Haijing Polytechnic’s reputation.
Fortunately, this young man sorted it all out.
The following publicity could focus on this student, showcasing his bravery, fearlessness, passion, and selfless dedication—he would be talked up.
After all, he was the only college student who ran straight into trouble while all the freshn were fleeing.
“I just reacted quickly; I believe the leaders and other students would have done the sa after coming to their senses!”
Lin Baici also said the right things, “Didn’t the instructors all co running over?”
The city TV station’s reporters and caraman had already approached, and the cara was pointed at Lin Baici.
This was news they definitely wouldn’t miss.
When the principal heard Lin Baici say that, the smile at the corner of his mouth broadened.
This student was not only brave but also savvy in handling social situations.
That phrase had effectively elevated the entire moral standard of the staff and students at Haijing Polytechnic.
Of course, the highlight was the ntion of “the leadership.”
“At Haijing Polytechnic, we’ve always adhered to a student-centered teaching standard, where we focus on developing the person before the skill, cultivating talents that are valuable to society.”
The principal took Lin Baici’s hand, “Young student, what’s your na?”
“Lin Baici!”
Lin Baici glanced at the cara.
“We will give special comndations to student Lin Baici, including a first-class scholarship, arrangents for an expedited party mbership, and we will also call on the entire faculty and student body to launch a learning campaign inspired by Student Lin while also applying for a national comndation for bravery on his behalf!”
At such a ti, one shouldn’t be stingy, especially when it doesn’t cost much.
After speaking, the principal glanced at Lin Baici and found him as composed as a ditating old monk, expressionless, neither sad nor happy.
You should know that the rewards I’ve ntioned are very tangible benefits for a college student and will be a great advantage when looking for a job after graduation.
But the young man was neither anxious nor impetuous!
The principal patted the back of Lin Baici’s hand, his estimation of him rising a notch.
The beautiful female reporter was also astonished.
Normally, a student who had just made a big splash in front of all the faculty and students and received so many benefits would definitely be excited and high-spirited…
Yet this student appeared calm, as if he’d just finished a profound ditation session and was in a state of sage-like tranquility, as though he were about to shave his head and beco a monk the next second.
Lin Baici nervous?
The effects of “Empty Iron Heart” had not yet dispersed.
He wouldn’t show any change in expression now, whether he was being watched by the entire faculty and student body or being recorded by the TV station or even if he were live in front of the entire country.
“Great, these ingredients are very interested in you now.
You can take the opportunity to pick and choose, select a few of your favorite to start eating!”
In Eater God’s eyes, all these freshn were like bread.
The female reporter extended the microphone to Lin Baici, wanting to interview him with a few questions.
“Don’t pick anymore; start with this one first, hoping it’s strawberry-flavored.”
“I just did sothing trivial, not worthy of an interview!”
Lin Baici declined and turned to walk away.
The female reporter was stunned; you’re turning down the chance to be on cara?
And boy, this kid is really handso!
The female reporter quickly asked the caraman if he had got the shot of this freshman killing the mad dog with one shot.
The caraman gave an OK gesture.
Great!
Make a copy!
…
Following the usual procedure, after the entry ceremony, it would be ti for the school leaders to give speeches.
Now that it had all beco chaotic, that couldn’t be done, so the principal announced an on-the-spot dismissal.
Beginning now, vacation for four days to make up for the previous Saturday and Sunday that weren’t taken off.
Sunday afternoon, all classes of Software Engineering will et at 2 PM in classroom 1012 of the teaching building, and classes will start regularly on Monday.
On the way back to the dormitory, Lin Baici was constantly being scrutinized by the new students.
“Old White, you’ve made a na for yourself now!”
Qian Jiahui joked, “How does it feel now?”
“I just hope the school quickly gives that scholarship!”
Lin Baici was relieved; this was a good excuse to give his mother so money.
“Scholarship?” Liu Yu was stunned, “Has that been decided already?”
He had been too far away earlier to hear the principal’s promise to Lin Baici.
“Not the kind for academic excellence!”
Lin Baici explained.
“That’s better.”
Liu Yu was relieved, his aim was to rank within the top three and obtain a scholarship.
It would be infuriating if it was already gone.
“Is that all the rewards?”
Qian Jiahui scoffed.
“I can also join the party, and the school will nominate for a bravery award.”
Lin Baici actually didn’t care much.
Convenient for finding a job in the future?
I’m a God Hunter now.
“Join the party?”
Liu Yu’s ears perked up instantly, and a sour feeling surged in his chest.
Damn it!
Liu Yu had aid to join the party before his sophomore year and get into the student union, and it would be even better to beco the president of the student union.
Now, his roommate, who had just started college and hadn’t even attended a class, was already a party mber.
“Already in the party, isn’t joining the school’s student union a given?”
Xu Daguan was live-streaming and didn’t care about these things, but he was still a student after all.
He knew that these were impressive parts of a resu, and it would be a lie to say he didn’t feel envious.
“I need to go to the bathroom.”
Liu Yu couldn’t listen anymore; he would get too upset.
He found an excuse to leave.
Lin Baici poured himself a glass of water and pondered over Eater God’s comnts.
Why was there a dog exposed to God’s bones radiation near the school?
Ding-dong!
A ssage on WeChat.
Lin Baici checked it.
Great Detective Xia: Your military training is over, and you’re off tomorrow, right?
Get ready; I’ll take you to a fun place!
