Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start-Chapter 107: Faithful! (3/5)_1

「Inside the Academy Alliance Hall.」

The ten students who had just exited the dungeon felt immense pressure under the teachers’ burning gazes. They still didn’t know why the ten of them had been so solemnly summoned to the hall. They thought they had been eliminated before others and were about to be criticized by their respective teachers.

Fortunately, those present didn’t keep them in suspense for too long.

"Don’t be nervous, students. We called you over because we have a question for you," said Yue Yang, the person in charge of the Academy Alliance’s examination, standing at the front.

All ten students immediately looked at him in unison, not understanding what question he was about to ask.

"Look at the leaderboard."

Following where Yue Yang pointed, all ten saw the little +10% in parentheses.

"We want to know why, in an instant, all of you simultaneously received this benefit. Could you perhaps enlighten us teachers?"

Upon hearing this question, the leading male student immediately said, "It’s because Chen Mo and Yan Yingyue completed a hidden mission."

"Hmm!?"

The teachers were all somewhat baffled.

"They completed a mission, so why did all of you gain the benefit?"

"We don’t know either. To be honest, we were very shocked at the time too."

At this point, another student to the side said, "This has to start with the inexplicable earthquake that occurred earlier."

"That’s right. Not long ago, we were in the middle of searching for monsters when suddenly, an extremely strong earthquake erupted throughout the entire dungeon. The ground shook so violently that we couldn’t even stand steady. It shook for quite a while before slowly stopping."

"An earthquake?"

The more the teachers listened, the more bizarre they found it. They exchanged glances, each wanting to see if anyone else knew about earthquakes happening inside the dungeon.

But no one knew. Even Yue Yang, who had been in charge of the examination for many years, said in confusion, "I’ve been in charge of this examination for so many years. Although the main tasks in this Five Spirits Gathering Dungeon change annually, I’ve never heard of any bizarre, massive earthquakes occurring."

"We thought the same thing at the time. Someone was wondering back then, as we had never heard of any earthquakes occurring in the Five Spirits Gathering Dungeon, let alone one so severe."

"To think such a thing happened! Please continue."

"After the earthquake gradually subsided, perhaps a minute or two later, we suddenly received The Heavenly Path’s Hint. It stated that Chen Mo and Yan Yingyue had completed some kind of unique hidden mission within the dungeon. According to The Heavenly Path’s Hint, to celebrate, all participants in this instance of the dungeon would receive a 10% bonus to their final settlement survival days."

"That’s all we know. We don’t know anything else."

"This is truly unheard of. To think there’s a hidden mission that can benefit all participants in the entire dungeon."

"It seems we’ll have to wait for Chen Mo and the others to come out and ask them properly."

They had initially thought that the people emerging from the dungeon could clear up their confusion. Unexpectedly, they only received a partial answer. Now, they were even more itching with curiosity, eager to know the real reason.

「Inside the dungeon.」

With the arrival of the fourth day, Chen Mo still focused on completing the day’s tasks first, while also looking for hidden missions and Special BOSSes.

Since basically no one would enter the fifth-stage area or sixth-stage area, any mission monsters that spawned in these areas were naturally all pocketed by Chen Mo.

In total, the two of them needed to farm sixty monsters, which actually didn’t take much time. It only took them four hours to complete them all.

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: You have completed today’s kill task tenfold! You have been rewarded with an additional 5 days of survival time. Current survival time: 459 (+50%)]

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: As you are the first professional to complete today’s kill task tenfold, you have received an additional hidden reward.]

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: You have obtained the super-rare hidden reward ’Age-Preserving Holy Fruit’!]

"Huh? I got this thing again."

"What?" Yan Yingyue looked at Chen Mo curiously.

Chen Mo smiled, took out a seemingly crystal-clear, pure white fruit, and handed it to Yan Yingyue, saying, "Here, this is for you."

Yan Yingyue dazedly accepted the Age-Preserving Holy Fruit. After checking the fruit’s information, she recalled what she had previously thought was just Chen Mo joking.

"Are you really giving this to me?" Yan Yingyue blinked her beautiful, large eyes and looked at Chen Mo with an adorable expression.

"Since I already said before that if I got a second one, I’d give it to you, naturally, I can’t go back on my word," Chen Mo smiled nonchalantly.

"But this thing seems very valuable. I’m afraid I can’t accept it."

Although Yan Yingyue really wanted it, when she thought about how valuable this item was, she couldn’t bring herself to accept it. In a girl’s eyes, something that could preserve one’s youthfulness was extremely valuable, but to Chen Mo, it was just so-so.

"Then aren’t you trying to make me a person who doesn’t keep their word?"

"How could that be? You offering it to me means you’ve kept your promise. It’s just that I can’t accept it," Yan Yingyue said with a smile.

"Just take it. There are still many days left. Maybe I’ll get one every day from now on. If you keep refusing, it’ll seem too distant. We’ve been together for several days now; even if we’re not close friends, we can be considered friends, right?" Chen Mo said with a smile.

Once these words were spoken, Yan Yingyue was momentarily speechless. She still wanted to decline, but according to Chen Mo, doing so would make it seem like there was a distance between them. Subconsciously, Yan Yingyue didn’t want there to be a rift with Chen Mo.

Under these circumstances, she had no choice but to nod and accept it. "Thank you."

"There’s no need for ’thank you’ between friends."

Chen Mo smiled, not minding this Age-Preserving Holy Fruit in the slightest.

After completing all the tasks, Chen Mo first returned to the third-stage area. He used the corpse of the SS level Special BOSS he had obtained earlier on the Light Spirit, extending its life by another five days.

At this point, the Light Spirit had nearly eight days of lifespan remaining. This way, he would have more free time to search for an SSS-level Special BOSS. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Another five days passed, and it was now the ninth day since everyone had entered the dungeon.

In these five days, Chen Mo and Yan Yingyue had cumulatively killed three S-level Special BOSSes and completed two hidden missions. In total, they obtained 50 survival days, a 30% final settlement bonus, and one Water Spirit Bead and one Fire Spirit Bead.

Adding the five days of leaderboard rewards, Chen Mo’s current survival days were 759 (+80%).

At the same time, he also received five hidden rewards for tenfold completion: three Life-Lengthening Fruits, one Age-Preserving Holy Fruit, and one Gender Transformation Spiritual Fruit.

Chen Mo ate the Age-Preserving Holy Fruit himself.

He tried to synthesize the three Life-Lengthening Fruits, wanting to see if he would obtain an even more special fruit. The result was a Rarity Prolong Life Fruit that added +9 years to lifespan.

It was no different from not synthesizing them. In fact, what could originally be eaten by three people could now only be eaten by one. It was even bound, so it couldn’t be gifted. However, this was a fruit, after all. He wondered what would happen if he held it in his hand and let someone else take a bite.

Anyway, Chen Mo felt this synthesis was a huge loss.

These two items, however, weren’t a big deal. It was this Gender-Switching Spiritual Fruit that truly left Chen Mo dumbfounded!
