Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 289 - 284: Strange Divine Academy 29

Game Logout Room.

Ma Qi looked at Joyce next to him: "How about it? Have the trolls in Josh’s live stream been dealt with?"

Joyce nodded: "They’ve all been dealt with. Didn’t you say you wanted to train her mindset?"

Ma Qi chuckled: "Wasn’t her performance in ’Gorgeous Cage’ good enough? This mindset should be enough."

Joyce thought for a moment but couldn’t help saying: "But we’ve dealt with batch after batch, and there are still many trolls in her live stream."

Ma Qi didn’t mind: "That’s normal. The other people’s live streams have a lot of trolls too. They’re in the spotlight, and it’s inevitable to have trolls when you’re popular."

Joyce shook his head: "It’s different. The trolls in Josh’s live stream don’t seem like casual ones. They seem organized and premeditated. As soon as they find a point to criticize, a bunch of people pop up. They’re deliberately steering the narrative, sometimes even elevating it to the level of guilds or political stances."

Ma Qi frowned: "Didn’t you deal with that batch of trolls before?"

Joyce: "I did, but recently I found that there’s a new batch of trolls in her live stream. Someone else must have hired new ones to target her. It’s not the same group as before."

Ma Qi couldn’t help but laugh, rubbing his forehead: "We barely picked up a girl, thinking it would be less trouble, but she’s even more resented than Yuze."

Joyce patted him on the shoulder.

Ma Qi thought for a moment: "Since that’s the case, we shouldn’t back down either. Check which groups are involved. Since they keep hiring trolls to attack us, we should retaliate."

Joyce raised an eyebrow at him in surprise: "Weren’t you always the one who disdained such tactics?"

Ma Qi stared at Josh’s face on the monitor and smiled: "Sometimes, learning from younger people and fighting fire with fire can be quite interesting, don’t you think?"

Joyce also laughed.

Inside the Instance.

Josh not only couldn’t use weapons to cheat in the exam, but was also distanced from the others.

Windsor looked at her smugly: "Do well on the test, or you’ll get eaten by the teacher if you fall behind."

Other players also looked on gleefully, waiting to see Josh’s downfall.

They said that she was struggling so much to learn, initially thinking there was some secret, but later realized she simply couldn’t do it.

After all, what could you expect from a waste from the Garbage Star who had never even read a book?

Just a desperate illiterate.

Josh looked at Windsor: "Teacher, since you’re targeting me, if I manage to do well without cheating, would you apologize to me?"

"Me? Apologize to you?" Windsor sneered: "Ridiculous! I’m the head teacher. Why should I apologize to a cheating student?"

Josh smiled gently: "But if I can score well without relying on others, doesn’t that prove you’re slandering me? I didn’t copy anyone else’s answers."

Windsor looked at her stubborn face and sneered: "If you’re really not lying, I’ll not only apologize but let you decide how to handle me. But... since you want to prove you didn’t cheat, unless you score 100, the teacher wouldn’t dare believe you."

Among the players present, only one boy, one girl, along with Susan and Lulu remained.

Except for Lulu, the other three were waiting to see Josh fail.

Josh’s smile faded a little: "Scoring 100 is the only way to prove I didn’t cheat?"

Windsor smiled more smugly: "Yes, unless you score 100, the previous scores count as cheating."

Josh looked at her expressionlessly: "If I score 100 and prove I didn’t lie, you’d apologize and let me handle you?"

"Of course," Windsor nodded with a smirk.

Josh suddenly smiled: "Alright."

Seeing her agree so readily, Windsor sneered, thinking Josh was in for a shock soon.

Josh was pulled to the classroom door for a solo exam.

This time, the exam followed a normal examination mechanism with personal scores ranked individually, with no set passing score.

It was clearly targeting Josh.

The exam began, and the papers were distributed.

Josh got the paper and started writing.

Occasionally, she’d pause, using her left thumb to tap her other fingers, then continued writing.

Windsor looked at her suspiciously: "What are you doing?"

Josh replied without looking up: "I’m taking the test, teacher."

Windsor glared at her left hand: "Why are you moving your left hand during the test?"

Josh put down her pen, looked up and smiled politely: "Because I’m bad at math, I need to count on my fingers to figure it out. Do you have a problem with that?"

Windsor’s eyes flashed with disdain, only then turning away and sitting back at the podium.

Comments: [Doesn’t look like she’s counting fingers...]

[I agree, it didn’t seem like counting fingers for that math fill-in-the-blank question.] 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

[Don’t you think her gestures resemble some kind of ancient superstition mentioned in ancient books?]

[What kind of superstitious gesture?]

[It’s like... supposedly a fortune-telling gesture, which has been lost for years and is all just a pretense.]

[I’ve noticed the fool really likes researching Ancient Blue Star culture.]

[I’ve noticed too, but didn’t Federation experts once declare that all those divinations, sorcery, and fortune-telling from Ancient Blue Star are fake and deceptive?]

[I can’t really understand it.]

After handing in the paper, Windsor eagerly corrected Josh’s paper.

The further she corrected, the more disbelief showed on her face.

Other players watched Windsor’s expression suspiciously; surely Josh didn’t actually score a 100?

She came from the Garbage Star, never read a book, can’t even do basic arithmetic—how could she score 100?

Windsor glared at her with a dark face: "You cheated!"

Josh looked at her calmly: "Teacher, you’re slandering me again."

Windsor’s hands trembled: "How could you possibly score full marks if you didn’t cheat?"

This statement also astonished the other players, especially Susanna.

She knew Josh’s capabilities, didn’t she?

So, she must have cheated after all.

She glanced at Josh disdainfully, as if seeing something filthy.

Josh looked at Windsor with a blank expression, gloves appearing on her hands.

Before anyone could react, Josh summoned Divine Light, flashed to Windsor’s side, and tore her body in half.

Windsor still had an incredulous look on her face: "How dare you..."

Josh threw her body to the ground, her face showing indifference: "Didn’t you say, as long as I proved I didn’t copy anyone, you’d let me handle you? I’ve proven it."

"Josh! You actually dared to kill the head teacher! You’re done for!" Susanna’s face was filled with excitement as she turned and ran out.
