Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 580: Taking Both the Person and the Map

With a blast of supernatural power, the door to the room was flung open. Lin Xi and Gu Fan stepped inside. The noise immediately awoke the pirates who were still deep in sleep.

Five pirates barely had time to rise to their feet when they saw Lin Xi and Gu Fan. Fear seized them, and they tried to shout, but shockingly, they couldn’t make a sound, as if something invisible was choking them.

The pirates were in extreme discomfort, each collapsed onto the ground. Xiaohu watched this scene, mouth agape. He understood Gu Fan’s intent from his gaze - they were to remain silent.

Lin Xi, in no mood to torment the pirates further, made them all faint. Then she said, "If you want to go home, follow us."

Xiaohu was momentarily stunned. Seeing Lin Xi demonstrate her powers and the unusual circumstances reignited his hope for home, causing him to see a glimmer of hope in these people.

Upon seeing Xiaohu following them, Gu Fan asked, "Xiaohu, tell me, does the conference room have a map?"

Xiaohu nodded. "Yes, there is a map in the conference room. Every time we make a move, the leader uses that map to guide us."

"Good, we need that map. Take us there." Gu Fan said, and looked at Xiaohu in expectation. Xiaohu did not disappoint Gu Fan and led them to the conference room using familiar routes.

Upon entering the conference room, Gu Fan saw a detailed hand-drawn map pinned to the wall. Just one glance, and Gu Fan knew it was the map they needed.

"Yes, this is it." Gu Fan quickly took the map from the wall. As they had no bag, he rolled it and held it in his hand.

So far, everything was going smoothly. Gu Ling had not sensed any danger. However, just because she hadn’t sensed danger did not mean that her companions wouldn’t make mistakes that could attract danger.

A cool breeze blew by, and a crew member suddenly sneezed.

"Who’s there?" The five pirates on patrol had no intention of heading towards where Su Hui and the others were. But on hearing the sneeze, they immediately turned towards the sound and discovered someone there, dressed differently.

"Damn, we’ve been discovered." Knowing they were in big trouble, Su Hui quickly ordered Gu Ling, Lu Yi, and Jie to lead everyone into the cave for retreat, while she took it upon herself to cover their escape.

"Stop! Stop!" The pirates raised the alarm, alerting the whole camp: "The hostages are escaping, the hostages are escaping."

Gu Fan in the conference room heard the commotion outside and knew immediately that there was danger. He hurriedly ushered Lin Xi and Xiaohu to escape. As a result, they ran into Dong Ni at the entrance.

"My God, I didn’t expect you to actually get out. I’m impressed. But your good luck ends with me." Dong Ni’s words confused Gu Fan, but from Dong Ni’s contemptuous look, he knew that the guy had no intention of letting them pass.

"If you won’t give way, we’ll force our way." Gu Fan ordered Lin Xi to conserve her supernatural power for unexpected developments and to protect Xiaohu. The situation outside could only worsen.

Gu Fan’s gaze was firm. His plan was to face Dong Ni one-on-one. If he could finish the fight quickly, that would be the best.

Dong Ni began to stretch, appearing eager to start the fight while Gu Fan rubbed his palms in readiness for the attack.

"Just when I had hoped to leave quietly, turns out we still have to fight our way out." Gu Fan heard the commotion outside getting louder, but it was not directed at the conference room. He realized that Su Hui and Gu Ling must have blown their cover.

Gu Fan rationalized that if they rushed out now, they would be met by a horde of pirates. This meant that Su Hui’s team and their own were separated by a multitude of pirates, and Lin Xi alone would not be able to clear the way.

"What should we do, what should we do?" Gu Fan was genuinely concerned about the safety of his companions, but their current situation was less than ideal.

Seeing Gu Fan distracted, Dong Ni rushed at him with a series of expert punches.

Gu Fan quickly regained his senses and blocked the attack but was unable to prevent a punch from hitting his face. Regardless, he managed to regain his balance and delivered a kick to Dong Ni’s body.

"Not bad, you’ve got some skills." Dong Ni raised his fists, increasingly excited. He seemed to relish the challenge of a worthy opponent.

Gu Fan was not one to back down. This time, he launched the attack with a succession of precise punches. Not only did Dong Ni block them, he even managed to grab Gu Fan’s arm.

Dong Ni swiftly executed a shoulder throw, giving Gu Fan a dizzying feel. However, Gu Fan caught hold of Dong Ni’s collar to cushion his fall and promptly flipped Dong Ni onto the ground.

Dong Ni dizzied by the fall, but he still managed to block a punch from Gu Fan that was aimed at his head. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Though Gu Fan’s strike missed, Dong Ni quickly rolled on the ground and sprang to his feet.

However, Gu Fan took advantage of Dong Ni’s unsteady footing and rushed forward, launching a flying knee attack. But Dong Ni managed to block it with his hands.

"Here’s another!" After his aerial knee attack failed, Gu Fan delivered an elbow strike right to Dong Ni’s head, which caused Dong Ni’s head to swim in pain.

Once Gu Fan landed, he quickly turned and gave another elbow strike to Dong Ni’s temple, disorienting him thoroughly.

"Now!" Gu Fan signaled Lin Xi. Understanding his intent, Lin Xi used her power to make the already weakened Dong Ni dizzy and end the fight.

Although it was not Gu Fan who personally defeated Dong Ni, the balance of power was clear. Gu Fan was confident he could win.

Gu Fan didn’t want to delay any longer. He needed to defeat Dong Ni quickly and then rejoin his companions.

Previously, Gu Fan did not allow Lin Xi to use her supernatural power directly against Dong Ni because of Dong Ni’s skill. If Dong Ni realised things were turning against him and decided to escape, he would likely attract a bunch of pirates and they would be surrounded, making the situation even more precarious.

Gu Fan’s strategy was to provoke Dong Ni into a one-on-one fight and prevent him from raising the alarm. Dong Ni enjoyed such challenges and fell for the bait.

After the fight, Gu Fan was quite exhausted, gasping for breath. But defeating Dong Ni was a significant accomplishment.

However, Lin Xi said, "We’ve defeated one Dong Ni, but there are still Qiao Ya and Su Lei, and hundreds of pirates outside. It’s going to be tough for us to get out."

Hearing these words, Xiaohu began to shiver with extreme fear. The hope he had seen earlier dissolved in an instant, leaving nothing but terror in his eyes. He regretted his hasty decision to follow Gu Fan without thinking.

"There, there, Lin Xi. See how you’ve frightened Xiaohu. Why don’t you show him a bit of your power?" After finishing his sentence, he rushed to reassure. "Xiaohu, don’t worry, big brother and big sister here will keep their promise. We’ll make sure you leave safely, and we’ll definitely take you home."
