In fact, the scene unfolding before him was something Alexander never expected.
The main reason was that the female teacher had witnessed him defeating Lei Hu. Moreover, the female teacher's power was incredibly strong; Alexander hadn't even noticed how she approached him.
Unable to fight her, he could only try to deceive her!
Although the female teacher seemed quite naive and easy to fool, Alexander couldn't be sure if she would remember that he had killed one of her students once she came to her senses.
So, the higher he could push her favorability, the safer it would be for him.
After several rounds of deception, the female teacher's favorability had soared to thirty.
Surely the rose would raise it by another ten or twenty points! Take it! Take it!
As he watched the female teacher's blushing face, Alexander prayed in his heart.
The female ghost teacher's face was crimson, her once fierce appearance gone, her red eyes now soft and watery. After an unknown period of silence, her ghostly heart suddenly started to beat.
Was this the feeling of love that she had never experienced when she was alive?
In the end, although she appeared hesitant, the female ghost teacher accepted the rose.
In an instant, her pale skin was tinged with a blush, and she tightly clutched the crimson rose in her hand, running out of the classroom like a shy girl.
"Favorability reaches 60 points. Skill 'Social Communication Barrier-Free Charm Syndrome' special effect triggered! Reward: Ghost Qi +10, Ghost Coins +100, Invitation to the Soul Apartment +1, Joss Paper +10."
The moment the female ghost teacher ran out of the classroom shyly, a piece of information appeared in Alexander's mind. At the same time, a white card stained with blood appeared in his hand.
Soul Apartment Invitation
Grade: Special Ghost Item
Effect: Use to enter the Soul Apartment instance and directly appear in the female ghost Su Rong's home.
Introduction: In the Thrilling World, the Soul Apartment on Ghost Street is the top place to be. With 18 floors, the Soul Apartment houses all the high-status evil ghosts on Ghost Street. As a living person without status, be careful not to step out of the apartment!
Soul Apartment... Just by hearing the name, he could tell what kind of place it was. Was it a new dungeon?
After the Thrilling Arrival, there were many ways for the Chosen Ones to enter dungeon.
One way was for newcomers like Alexander to be randomly placed into an dungeon. The second was through randomly triggered events, such as taking the last bus possibly leading to the Last Bus instance, or visiting parents' graves at night possibly leading to the Yin Yang Road or Chaotic Burial Ground dungeon.
Of course, in today's society, those who dare to do such things are usually quite naive. The most common way is through various 'invitations.'
For example, one night you might find a stack of hundred-dollar bills in front of your door, pick them up excitedly, only to find out they are joss paper the next day, and then get dragged into the Bank of the Dead a few days later.
Or, one day there might be a supermarket discount coupon stuck to your door, the kind that offers one to two-thirds off. If you let greed get the better of you and bring it inside, you'll find yourself in the Ghost Supermarket that night.
There are also cursed letters, ghostly lunch boxes, haunted rentals, and so on.
These strange things are all products of the terrifying world's influence on the living world. While they cannot directly harm people, if you become targeted and trigger certain rules, you can also become one of the Chosen Ones or be pulled into an dungeon.
In addition to this, as a Chosen One, you can enter dungeons randomly through tattoos or use the mentioned items.
It is said that experienced Chosen Ones can obtain various items, some of which can even allow them to enter specific dungeon. However, aside from the legendary veterans, most people are terrified of the thrilling world and are frightened by joss paper and discount coupons. Each time they enter an dungeon, even the veterans are extremely cautious.
Being invited by a ghost, Alexander was probably the first in history. "I'll keep it for now. With the female ghost teacher's high favorability, as long as she's covering for me, I should be able to protect myself no matter where I go in the apartment," Alexander thought to himself, putting away the invitation in his hand.
His gaze swept across the classroom, and all the ghost students who met his eyes quickly looked away. Even Cain, who used to mock him, kept his head down, afraid of attracting Alexander's attention. However, due to Alexander's actions, the remaining time passed without further incidents.
Even the other Chosen Ones in the dungeon benefited from it. Except for one unlucky guy who couldn't resist going to the restroom and never came back, the rest of them safely made it through the final lessons.
Ding-dong... As the bell rang, a white light flashed before the eyes of all the Chosen Ones, accompanied by a dizzying sensation. In the next moment, Alexander found himself back in his bedroom.
"I'm back..." Familiar scent, familiar taste. Even the angle of the setting sun streaming in hadn't changed, as if the day of life and death in the thrilling world had just been a momentary trance, just an illusion. However, the burning pain from his arm, accompanied by a message entering his mind, quickly pulled Alexander back to reality.
"Congratulations! You have successfully passed the first thrilling world dungeon and earned the official Chosen One qualification!"
"dungeon evaluation settlement: You survived ten life and death crises in the instance. Your instance evaluation is SSS!"
Ten times? Were there that many? Alexander was a bit stunned but soon became excited. The first time a Chosen One participates in a thrilling dungeon is usually a survival scenario without triggering any tasks or having any main storyline. Only by passing it can one be considered a formal player. If not, the person would naturally cease to exist.
Although the rewards for the assessment dungeon are not many, they directly represent a player's starting point. On the thrilling world expert leaderboard, the top twenty players are almost all of A-level evaluations. S-level evaluations have only been achieved by three people so far. There have never been any higher evaluations, and he unexpectedly received a 3S-level evaluation right away.
It's as if heaven was on his side! On his arm, the scythe tattoo had turned blood red. This is the mark of a formal player. From now on, Alexander can enter thrilling dungeons through the tattoo, with a minimum of one experience per month. However, unlike other tattoos, perhaps due to the 3S evaluation, Alexander's scythe blade has an indistinct, skull-like reflection on it. If not staring at it, it would be difficult to discover.
At this moment, Alexander didn't have the energy to pay attention to the tattoo. As information from the thrilling world emerged directly in his mind, the 3S-level evaluation for the novice assessment had finally reached the reward distribution stage:
"Settlement completed. As the first novice assessment SSS-level evaluation recipient, you will receive rewards..."
