Chapter 491: Chapter 490: Infinite Stream Cannon Fodder: Five Days of Classes 8

Liu Mingming and those who initially wanted to privately consult Ah Chen were pleasantly surprised by this unexpected joy. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

It’s almost time for morning reading, but they aren’t in a hurry.

After class, Liu Mingming and the others come to find Ah Chen.

Some wanted to eavesdrop, but unexpectedly Ah Chen wrote it down in a notebook for them to read.

It’s not a big deal, but Ah Chen didn’t like certain people’s previous attitude, so she didn’t want to tell them. If they can discover it themselves later, that’s their skill.

If others are willing to tell them, that’s their own business.

But she believes these people have their own judgment, and won’t do such a thing.

Everyone knows the monster has been without food, and every night thereafter becomes more dangerous, tonight twelve adventurers will be targeted by the monster.

As expected by Ah Chen, those who obtained the information quietly returned to their seats without telling anyone.

Those who were impolite to Ah Chen before are now full of regret.

But what Ah Chen didn’t anticipate was that someone was bold enough to intercept and intimidate a lone adventurer, trying to force them to reveal what’s going on, and even resorting to punching and kicking. The adventurer had few items and didn’t want to waste them on the adventurer, so they stubbornly refused to speak.

"Kill him, otherwise reporting to the teacher might lead to punishment." The intercepting adventurer whispered.

As soon as the words fell, the bullied adventurer was stunned, never expecting them to go this far, so they shouted for help.

Simultaneously they prepared the few tools they had, even if they were to be killed, they wouldn’t let these three despicable guys succeed.

Bullying classmates is definitely not allowed in school, they will surely face punishment.

This quickly caught the attention of the NPC alumni.

Then the teacher came and took everyone to the office.

"Announcement, Grade 11 Class 2 students Jiang Hao, Chen Hongyang, and Tang Bohao have been reported for beating and attempting to murder their classmate Guo Zheheng and have been taken away by the police. Students should show mutual care, please remember this. Meanwhile, the school will provide mental comfort and compensation to student Guo Zheheng. To prevent similar incidents, the school will increase security, please abide by the laws."

After the announcement repeated three times, everyone in the classroom was stunned.

So in an instant, three people were eliminated? No doubt, students taken away by the police surely can’t come back. Unless they use a Substitute Card, allowing them to return as transfer students.

The crowd waited, but Jiang Hao and the others didn’t return, obviously they didn’t use a Substitute Card. An Intermediate Substitute Card costs 500 coins, whether they don’t have enough coins or feel it’s not worth it to return.

Anyway, it’s none of their business.

Soon after, Guo Zheheng returned.

Still bearing wounds on his face, but he looked quite satisfied, clearly having received satisfactory compensation.

Could it really be like this?

Earlier, the seemingly cowardly Guo Zheheng now wore a "come bully me" expression, leaving others speechless.

But some indeed regret it, wondering why Jiang Hao’s trio didn’t come after them? Had they known there would be compensation after being bullied, they would’ve voluntarily isolated themselves.

"This is school, hence the rules forbid bullying," Ah Chen said, "Moreover, Guo Zheheng’s cry for help attracted the NPC. Had he failed to call for help and was killed, there would’ve likely been no compensation."

Previously, she heard the screams; many likely heard Guo Zheheng’s cry for help too, it seemed the adversary used some tools that made the sound exceptionally loud. Before they could react, many NPCs had already gone over.

"Similarly, in other scenarios, whether calling the police or officials, if you don’t get NPC assistance, you can only consider yourself unlucky," Ma Qin chimed in.

Bai Qiaoqian stroked her chin, "That’s quite realistic; the best part is, once a hurry call succeeds, the trouble gets resolved, usually wouldn’t increase difficulty for us adventurers."

"Most likely," Ah Chen replied, if the summoned turned out to resemble certain external scenarios and didn’t help, it wouldn’t be very friendly to adventurers, probably wouldn’t reach that extent.

Noon came, and Ah Chen and Ruan Xiao were again called by the language teacher, asked to help grade assignments after lunch, both agreed, Ma Qin and Bai Qiaoqian gladly accompanied.

Aside from them, other classmates joined Ah Chen.

The classmates who survived the monster encounter last night were now undoubtedly not monsters, many expressed willingness to be close to them.

Yet the office couldn’t accommodate so many, when bumped into by the language teacher, everyone was driven out, leaving Ma Qin and Bai Qiaoqian a bit helpless.

"Did you not sleep well last night?" Ah Chen eyed Ruan Xiao’s blue circles under his eyes; here the body functions similarly to outside, complete with various reactions unless expending currency to improve physical condition.

Ruan Xiao yawned, looking frustrated, "Under the circumstance, how could you sleep well? Luckily the monster didn’t seek me, but wondering how to survive tonight’s threat."

"I must ponder carefully, on what to compete with the monster tonight."

"I’m unsure if playing the statue game again is possible, even if playing against the monster, can I win?"

"Then focus on something else." Ah Chen suggested, "Consider what you’re adept at."

"Right." Ruan Xiao replied, while grading assignments.

"If monsters seek you again, what game do you plan to challenge with?" Ruan Xiao further inquired, then hesitated, "It’s probably inappropriate to disclose to me, just hint if you have other tactics."

Ah Chen said, "I have plenty of ideas, if they come, they’ll lose. I’ll share a couple with you."

"That... I feel embarrassed." Ruan Xiao scratched his head awkwardly, "I haven’t figured what game to play, sigh."

"Arm wrestling," Ah Chen proposed, "Ensure you have enough strength, may even employ tools, generally it’s a tactic accessible to most."

"Idiom solitaire or ancient poetry duel are viable, it seems monsters can’t talk, appearing foolish, unclear on how they’d confront." Ah Chen chuckled.

This smile sent shivers down Ruan Xiao’s spine, a monster encountering her would be truly unfortunate.

"Could even prep a test paper, solving it once, later offer a challenge; chances are monsters are academic failures." Ah Chen further shared, "Choose one’s strengths legitimately, monsters bear competitive spirits, simply trigger their ambition."

Ruan Xiao eyes widened, "That’s quite an exploit on monsters."

"Since rules imply so, not utilizing them would be foolish, why not seize this weakness?"

"Indeed, let them experience properly." Ruan Xiao affirmed, "I’ve decided, tonight I’ll challenge monsters with idiom solitaire, feeling more proficient. For statue game or arm wrestling, relying heavily on tools yields victory. Competence in idiom solitaire prevails, should monsters vocalize I hold confidence."

"As long as you assure self-confidence," Ah Chen replied.
