I’m A Wasteland Giant

As the last ray of the setting sun gradually disappeared…

Under the gaze of all the students in the dormitory, a round spatial channel with a diameter of about four to five meters suddenly appeared on the school playground.

This circular channel stood straight up from the ground, performing a swirling motion as if it were a swirling vortex.

“What is that?”

Ma Li exclaimed in a hushed voice. He had been too busy crying earlier to fully ascertain what was happening.

“Shush!”

Du Gang motioned him to quiet down, softly saying, “Cover your mouth and don’t make any noise!”

Ma Li immediately became nervous, covering his mouth subconsciously, but his eyes never left the spatial channel.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and his body shivered. If he hadn’t been covering his mouth, he would have likely screamed in alarm.

In the distance, a giant “cockroach” slowly crawled out from the circular spatial channel.

The sight of its half-meter-high, four-meter-long body, as soon as it appeared, instantly caused everyone’s hearts to freeze.

Its countless legs would surely cause anyone with a fear of densely populated things to die of a heart attack on the spot.

After appearing, the “cockroach” vibrated its antennae slightly. Following that, it turned around and began to crawl towards the nearby teachers’ dormitory.

The layout of the Experimental Middle School was relatively symmetrical, with the playground in the middle and the students’ dormitory and teachers’ dormitory on either side.

The location where the spatial channel appeared was right on the playground, close to the teachers’ dormitory.

Du Gang and Ma Li exchanged glances, a suspicion quietly forming within their minds.

They suspected that the “cockroach” could use its antennae to locate its “food”.

It would be confirmed if there were people in the teachers’ dormitory that the “cockroach” indeed had the ability to locate its “food”.

“Most teachers have their own homes and only live on campus for convenience in giving extra classes. There shouldn’t be anyone there now…”

Seeing Ma Li’s anxious and disordered breathing, Du Gang quietly tried to soothe him.

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Ma Li began to breathe sharply, like a suffocating man gasping for air after surfacing from the water.

But despite this, even though he was severely lacking oxygen, he consciously controlled his voice, fearing that any noise would attract the “cockroach”.

Upon seeing this, Du Gang smiled and whispered, “Don’t worry, even if there is a teacher still in the dormitory, they wouldn’t be stupid enough to scream and allow us to test the ‘cockroach’s’ locating abilities…”

“Ah~~~”

Before he could finish speaking, a scream that pierced through the quiet, grey night echoed in the distance.

Du Gang was dumbfounded. He hadn’t expected that there would be fools among the teachers…

No, wait!

He suddenly remembered that the teachers’ dormitory didn’t have six floors like the students’ dormitory. It was just a two-story old building, with even the doors being made of wood!

“Ah~~~”

Following that, a second scream sounded. This time, it was a woman’s voice.

How many teachers hadn’t gone home?

Du Gang felt somewhat bitter. He had painstakingly studied the news and notices. Just an hour ago, he watched as experts from the Arctic Circle analyzed the fact that the “cockroach” would be attracted by noise.

And the two screams from the teachers’ dormitory carried far. They could at least be heard by the buildings lining the street where their school was located.

If any other spatial channels existed outside the school, it might just send the “cockroach” their way again.

At this moment, Du Gang spotted a woman suddenly running out from the teachers’ dormitory.

Upon closer inspection, it was their Chinese teacher, An Ya, a middle-aged woman who had graduated from Nanyuan Normal University.

“Run, teacher, run!”

Just like Du Gang, Ma Li recognized her at first glance and began quietly praying under his breath.

But the next second, he closed his mouth again.

Just as An Ya had gotten halfway across the field, another “cockroach” had already appeared halfway out of the spatial channel behind her.

“It’s over!”

At this moment, all the students in the dormitory had their hearts lifted into their throats, hoping that the “cockroach” would be late in discovering An Ya.

But to their disappointment, the “cockroach” showed that it was an efficient predator. The moment its body fully appeared, it darted towards An Ya fervently, like a mosquito that had sighted blood.

Unfortunately, it was at this time that due to her lack of exercise, An Ya’s stamina and physical fitness couldn’t keep up with the intensity of her sprinting and her breathing was severely disordered. She had no choice but to stop and rest.

“Run, teacher! Run!”

At this time, a student in the girls’ dormitory next door couldn’t help it and shouted out loud.

Hearing the voice, An Ya instinctively looked back, was so scared she felt like her soul had left her body, and struggled to start moving again.

But at this moment, she had finally reached the limit of physical exhaustion from running. Her legs gave way, and she fell to the ground.

“Ah!”

All the students had been watching her, and when they saw her tumble down, they all let out involuntary cries of alarm.

In the distance, the “cockroach” was already quite close to her, while An Ya was just sitting on the ground, facing the “cockroach” and slowly moving backward.

But her speed of scooting backward was by no means faster than the “cockroach”, which had many legs.

In just a few seconds, the “cockroach” was already very close to her.

In the girls’ dormitory, many girls couldn’t help but start to cry at this scene.contemporary romance

In the boys’ dormitory, a feeling of despair was steadily spreading.

“Teacher An, run… run…oh…”

Ma Li was also extremely anxious at this time. His words were stuttering. He knew in his heart that unless a miracle happened, An Ya would undoubtedly die. At this point, he thought about looking away, afraid he couldn’t bear to watch.

“Phew…”

Just then, Du Gang sitting beside him let out a deep exhale.

“What’s wrong with you?”

When Ma Li asked this question, it was as if a switch had been turned on.

“Bam!”

Du Gang opened the window and jumped out.

Normally, he should be as powerless and furious as the other students.

But he had acquired the Ancient God System, which let him turn into a giant. During his off-school hours, he only knew that he had grown taller and stronger. But he didn’t know exactly how powerful he was.

Now he had an opportunity. He could save a life and test the abilities of the giant at the same time.

As for being discovered, he didn’t care. After all, he had the ability to shape-shift, and he clearly couldn’t keep it a secret forever, could he?!

“Du Gang…”

Ma Li was stunned!

Du Gang seemed to have transformed into King Kong from the movies, towering over the others. He took strides ten meters long. In just three steps, he had rushed out towards An Ya, reaching her just before the “cockroach”.

“Oh my goodness…”

At this moment, all the students were stunned.

They were surprised by Du Gang’s sudden appearance in front of An Ya and the fact that his height and body size were clearly more than twice that of ordinary people.
