The warm sunlight shone through the glass window into the classroom, illuminating the beautiful profile of Yang Linlin.
A beautiful woman, with a non-pulling performance, is enough to attract many fans.
Especially male fans.
So, shortly after Yang Linlin entered this instance, the live broadcast room quickly gathered thousands of viewers.
Although she had only experienced four instances, her growth was evident to them.
From a useless rich girl vase, she transformed into a new player who knows how to think and be tolerant, attracting many fans with her progress.
After awakening at the instance spawning point, Yang Linlin's face immediately turned extremely awful!
The four words "Hell Difficulty" on the system made Yang Linlin feel weak all over!
This was only her fourth instance!
How could she be so unlucky to encounter Hell Difficulty?
The last instance's normal difficulty tortured her to near death. She couldn't even dare to think about what would happen with Hell Difficulty this time!
She is currently at level 4, with a total of 25 life points. She died three times in the previous instance, deducting 15 points, leaving her with 10 points.
If she dies again, the pressure for the next instance will be extremely high!
It should be noted that once a player's life points are cleared, they will no longer be able to resurrect in the guild headquarters!
Stunned for a few seconds, Yang Linlin frantically turned her head and saw only a few people sitting skewed in the classroom.
Three of them had obvious labels on their heads.
They were the players matched with her.
Looking at these three guys, Yang Linlin felt somewhat desperate!
These three were lower level than her, absolute newcomers!
There was simply no way to count on them!
Could it be that they were really going to be useless today?
And that guy called Zhao Yi seemed completely unaware of the terrifying nature of this instance, still leisurely looking around!
Painfully closing her eyes, Yang Linlin let out a breath.
At this point, she could only take it one step at a time.
It was now lunchtime.
The students in the classroom were either chatting or sleeping.
Glancing at the schedule and the large clock, there were ten minutes left before the first afternoon math class!
This was a good opportunity!
They could discuss and exchange information with each other!
So, at Yang Linlin's invitation, the four of them came to a lawn outside the classroom.
"Listen, we are facing unprecedented difficulties and dangers right now!"
"In the next seven days, we must work together diligently to have a chance to survive!"
"Now, what do you think of this instance?"
Zhentao and Lubai shrugged helplessly.
We've just entered the game, what thoughts can we have!
Zhao Yi stood with his hands in his pockets, carefully inspecting the interior of the first-floor classroom from the window.
Every classroom was not full.
And the number of people in each classroom was less than half of the seats.
If a classroom had forty-six seats, then the number of people in the classroom would not exceed twenty-three.
All eight classes were like this.
It's an interesting phenomenon, but... what does it signify?
Zhao Yi became alert.
"Hey - Zhao Yi, why aren't you talking?"
"I just said we need to unite, didn't you hear?"
"We must communicate more now, exchange useful information with each other, in order to survive!"
Yang Linlin looked at Zhao Yi walking on his own, ignoring them, feeling anxious.
The dungeon was already difficult, and if teammates didn't cooperate, the difficulty would increase further!
"Zhao Yi... I feel like I've seen this name somewhere..."
Zhen Tao muttered, then suddenly looked up.
"Are you the first on the new player leaderboard for the 'Giant Hospital' dungeon on Hell difficulty?"
The other two also froze upon hearing this.
Soon, they learned about Zhao Yi through the system.
First on the new player leaderboard!
Impressive!
This was a top player who emerged from millions of people!
Looking at Zhao Yi's determined gaze, he stroked his chin and said:
"Do you remember your seat?"
Yang Linlin replied, "Of course I do, why?"
Zhao Yi didn't answer, instead giving a meaningful glance at the classroom on the third floor.
"It's nothing."
"It's time for class, let's go back to the classroom."
"If nothing unexpected happens... our classroom will probably see quite a few casualties today."
"Oh, by the way, make sure to sit in your own seat... don't sit in the wrong one!"
The tone of the last sentence sent shivers down their spines.
The three exchanged glances, and Zhen Tao's face turned pale.
"Zhen Tao, what's wrong with you?"
"I... I think I forgot my own seat!"
He looked towards Zhao Yi.
"Brother Zhao, is this... is this important?!"
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes and said:
"I'm not sure if other seats are dangerous, but our spawn point is definitely safe for a short period of time."
"If you can't remember, try to recall a reference point you do remember."
Live chat comments:
- "Impressive thinking, just as expected from the first on the leaderboard!"
- "After leaving the new player platform, Zhao Yi's popularity dropped instantly. Only around 300 people in the livestream room."
- "Come on, can any newly joined player's livestream room have this many viewers? 300 is quite a lot!"
- "Wow! Another Hell difficulty dungeon. Zhao Yi really has bad luck!"
- "For capable players, the higher the difficulty of the dungeon, the better. It's impossible to achieve an S or above rank in nightmares and below."
- "This time, he won't be able to weaken the ghosts' power with the help of the system. Let's see how he dies!"
- "No way, does anyone really think they can reach the top by relying on tricks?"
...
Ding dong -
The bell for class rang.
The music was still familiar, but there were too many noises mixed in. Faintly, one could hear some kind of wailing, sending chills down one's spine!
The students of Class 18 in the first year of high school all sat up straight, ready to welcome the arrival of their teacher. It was clear that they were very nervous.
As Mr. Zhao's gaze swept over all the students in the classroom, his pupils, in that instant, turned into a terrifying crimson color, spinning like a kaleidoscope. He could see through each and every student as if reading their data.
To his shock, the entire classroom was filled with ghosts! Not a single living person was present. Fortunately, these students were all neutral entities and wouldn't harm the players without reason.
The door was pushed open, and a female teacher walked in wearing formal professional attire.
[Female Teacher: Triggered Neutral State]
[Note: This entity remains neutral until its hunting conditions are triggered. Upon activation, its power will surge, and it will regain strength after killing the target.]
A triggered neutral state? Mr. Zhao seemed to understand something as he glanced at the test paper in her hand.
Was this trigger related to the test paper she held, or perhaps to their seating arrangements? Or maybe... both?
"We will have an exam in this class," the female teacher said calmly.
After her announcement, Mr. Zhao noticed the chubby ghost in the front row trembling visibly. The teacher explained the exam rules and then personally distributed the test papers, starting from the right and moving to the left, even though some seats were empty. She patiently placed the papers and scratch paper on those empty seats.
Mr. Zhao glanced at a nearby vacant seat. Both the test paper and scratch paper were pure white. There were no words on the test paper, while a few of the test papers on other empty seats had writing on them.
Taking a quick look at his own test paper, Mr. Zhao found some very basic and simple math problems, such as proving the Goldbach Conjecture.
Great! He had no clue how to do it.
Mr. Zhao swiftly wrote his name and student ID and left the rest to the eraser.
As the discipline of the exam began to break down, with some students looking around and even using their phones to search for answers, the female teacher seemed unconcerned. She meticulously checked the students in the classroom against the class roster at the lectern.
However, Mr. Zhao keenly observed that the ghost sitting in front of him was trembling even more. It seemed... afraid!
