After reading the information provided by Zhang Xian, Bai Ze immediately realized that the class monitor had probably completed laying out her plan and perhaps had already taken advantage of some loopholes to obtain the real badge.

Thinking of this, Bai Ze could no longer sit still. He immediately went downstairs and rushed in the direction of the planetarium!

With the help of Storm Thunder Flash, Bai Ze’s speed was like a flash of shadow darting past. The battle downstairs was still intense, but there were obviously fewer people who could still participate in the battle.

Most of them were pinned down by others, and even if a few of them discovered Bai Ze’s presence flashing past, they could not easily catch up with him.

Bai Ze swiftly passed through more than half of the competition area and arrived at the planetarium successfully.

The planetarium was located at the top right corner of the competition area. Moreover, due to its small area, it was easily overlooked by other students.

If it weren’t for Zhang Xian’s reminder, Bai Ze wouldn’t have noticed this building so quickly.

At this point, the planetarium was much more deserted compared to the other places that were in chaos.

There were a few sets of footprints around the flower bed in front of the gate, but those people had all chosen to leave in the end.

Bai Ze first looked around the planetarium but did not find any traces of anyone in the building.

Considering the fact that the competition hadn’t started for long, he thought that Liang Rou might not be here yet.

Bai Ze decided to enter the planetarium in advance and hide there.

If Liang Rou won through fair and square means, then he wouldn’t say anything.

If the other party cheated or ignored the rules, Bai Ze would be the first to stop him.

It didn’t take long for Bai Ze to arrive at the third floor of the planetarium.

This was the storage room of the planetarium. Even on a typical day, very few people came here. It stored all kinds of astronomical supplies, and there was an astronomical telescope near the window.

When Bai Ze found the telescope, he also found a burnt camera on the roof ledge outside the window.

The camera in this position covered a large area around the planetarium, but after it was burnt, it became a blind spot.

Looking around, Bai Ze did not find anything wrong inside the storage room.

However, a large black box in the middle of the room caught his attention.

The black box was more than a meter in length and width and was covered with a piece of black fabric, giving it a mysterious appearance.

Bai Ze slowly walked forward and stared at the black box in front of him with blazing eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he tried to open it.

Everything in the room was covered with a thin layer of dust, but this box was brand new and didn’t fit in with the astronomical supplies around it.

It was very likely that the class monitor, Liang Rou, had left this behind in advance.

Thinking of this, Bai Ze immediately opened the box.

Immediately, a cloud of icy cold air rose, blocking his vision. At the same time, the surrounding temperature plummeted, making Bai Ze feel chilly all over.

After the icy cold air dissipated, Bai Ze’s expression changed drastically when he saw what was in the box. He gasped with a sudden intake of breath!

The black box in front of him was filled with white square ice cubes, and in the middle of the ice cubes were ten bottles of potions, each about the size of ink bottles.

The mixture of pale blue liquid and solid in the potion, sparkling with white light like flickering stars, resembled a beautiful, alluring nebula. It was breathtakingly beautiful.

The reason Bai Ze had such a big reaction was because these ten potions in the box that resembled nebulae were all Ether Essence!

Each of them was worth more than 100,000, and there were ten of these amazing potions in the box, which would make this box worth at least one million!

Bai Ze didn’t expect Liang Rou was willing to go to such an extent to cheat. He began to wonder what she intended to do with these potions.

Just as Bai Ze was thinking about how to ruin Liang Rou’s plan, he heard faint footsteps from outside.

The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and Bai Ze felt inexplicably irritated. He didn’t expect Liang Rou to come so quickly, and there was no place to hide in the surroundings.

In a moment of desperation, Bai Ze could only crawl into the black box full of ice in front of him!

The moment he jumped into the box, Bai Ze felt a bone-piercing chill all over his body. The chill seemed to penetrate straight into his soul, making him shiver endlessly.

Bai Ze immediately reacted. These ice cubes that lowered the temperature of the Ether Essence were definitely no ordinary ice cubes. The temperature of these ice cubes was below minus 40 degrees Celsius. Bai Ze only stepped in for two seconds and felt frozen all over.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately deployed the Ice Crystal Armor rule. With a surge of magic power, a thick layer of Ice Crystal Armor immediately condensed around Bai Ze’s body.

It instantly cut off the low temperature outside, so Bai Ze survived a minor crisis.

He covered his body with the ice around him and placed the Ether Essence potions on top of him to avoid leaving any traces to get him exposed.

After Bai Ze was done hiding, the closed door of the storage room was immediately pushed open.

Bai Ze closed his eyes, activated his spiritual consciousness, and immediately saw the two people who had entered the room.

They were the two people he had seen at the pavilion at the back of the school yesterday.

Today, Liang Rou was wearing a white chiffon blouse with a floral skirt. She also wore eight-centimeter high heels and silver earrings.

This outfit made Liang Rou look tall and charming, exuding ample feminine grace, but it didn’t look like she was preparing for a battle.

In fact, she looked like she was preparing to go traveling.

Liang Rou was considered pretty with light makeup on. However, in Bai Ze’s eyes, she was a flirtatious slut who could not be compared to Jiang Qingyue at all.

The man who came in with Liang Rou was dressed in a smart black suit. He was dressed in a low-key manner and even wore a mask that covered half of his face.

The man’s expression was indifferent, and he deliberately tried to keep his distance from Liang Rou.

However, Liang Rou was clinging onto his arm and casting seductive glances at him.

“Liang Rou, are you sure you can guarantee that my identity won’t be exposed?”

The young man freed his arm from her grasp with a stony expression.

Liang Rou still had a charming smile on her face. She leaned close and said, “Don’t worry, Brother Lu. I’ve already asked that guy, Zhang Xian, to destroy the cameras here. No one will know about our plan.”

“Hmph … I think it’s better to be more vigilant.”

A look of disgust flashed across the young man’s face, then he turned around and closed the storage room door.

“You’ve brought what I wanted, right? According to our agreement, I’ve already helped you locate the badge. It’s time for you to let me inspect the goods. ”

Liang Rou’s body stiffened. When she saw that the young man had no interest in her, her expression changed drastically.

However, for the sake of the big picture, she could only force a smile and explain in a gentle tone, “Don’t worry, the items are all here. As long as you help me win the championship, the items and the person… are all yours. ”

When she said ‘person’, she deliberately dragged out the pronunciation to see the other party’s reaction.

However, the young man simply turned around and stared at the black box in the middle of the room with blazing eyes.

After realizing the man’s intention, Bai Ze, who was hiding in the box, immediately swallowed nervously.
