Chapter 494: Chapter 493: Infinite Stream Cannon Fodder: Five Days of Classes 11

She even noticed some people suddenly happy, clearly they had gained something.

"Just two more nights until liberation," Ruan Xiao said.

Ah Chen looked at Ruan Xiao, "You’ve had pretty good luck."

Except for the first night, Ruan Xiao seemed to have slept well; there were no dark circles under his eyes.

"I think so too." Ruan Xiao scratched his head, "Sigh, today I’ll probably be called to the office to grade papers again."

As the day passed, on the way back to the dormitory, Bai Qiaoqian and Ma Qin told Ah Chen that they had found a tool.

"That’s great," Ah Chen said. "Congratulations; as long as you’re careful, there’s no problem getting through this level."

Ma Qin and Bai Qiaoqian exchanged glances but said nothing.

They definitely wouldn’t tell someone else; in this world, who can you trust?

But Li Chen is different.

She held off the monsters for three nights, and if she wanted to use the tools, they would be happy to. With Li Chen’s character, using their tools would certainly lead to more protection for them.

It’s just that there was clearly no need for her to use the tools.

It was a bit disappointing, but they wouldn’t force anything.

In front of a strong person, there’s one thing you must learn—tactfulness.

They didn’t think about eliminating the monsters; just joking, with only two nights left, why do more? It wouldn’t benefit them. It’s better to keep the tools, even if they can’t be used, just in case; it’s always useful against monsters once.

That night was very calm, as Ah Chen expected, she wasn’t approached by the monsters.

After asking the dorm-mates, they all happily said they weren’t approached by the monsters. This made her wonder, are the monsters avoiding her? It seems they are more interesting than she thought.

It’s good they didn’t come; the dorm-mates are sensible people, and she’d be glad to see them pass this level.

The people in the dorm started to think they weren’t just lucky.

Other dorms had been visited by monsters; they must have benefited from Li Chen’s presence.

Thinking about Li Yao, they all shook their heads—she was a powerful person, so just respect her. Why offend and provoke dislike? She didn’t bully people with her strength, did she? Offending people is just a bit foolish.

As they stepped out of the dorm, Ah Chen saw Li Yao with a face white as chalk.

It seems her luck wasn’t good; she was approached by monsters again. Although she survived, she probably paid a high price.

Seeing Ah Chen, Li Yao’s face turned darker, filled with remorse.

Especially seeing no one missing in Ah Chen’s dorm, she regretted it even more.

If she had known it would be like this, she would have kept her mouth shut.

Now wanting to stay with Li Chen was out of the question.

She bit her lip and hurried towards the classroom, not saying anything more; it wasn’t a good time to make jokes.

Only one night left. Once it’s over, meeting these people again would be difficult.

"Tonight might be dangerous, be careful, all of you," Ah Chen warned.

The monsters aren’t looking for her, but they couldn’t avoid her dorm-mates forever.

No one knew how many were eliminated last night. If too many remain, tonight could be a big purge.

In the classroom, Liu Mingming was still alive, and today his complexion looked fine.

Ah Chen glanced over and saw Ruan Xiao with a look of relief.

Many thought Ruan Xiao was silly, yet his luck seemed good. It was said he hadn’t been approached by monsters.

Liu Mingming’s voice rang out, "Eight people were eliminated last night."

"However, specific tools have been appearing gradually, so those eliminated might not necessarily be adventurers, but monsters."

He couldn’t delve into who might have killed a monster; just counting numbers was enough.

He mentioned specific tools, naturally because he had also found some, hence his confidence.

Liu Mingming glanced at Bai Qiaoqian and the others, his eyes flashed with envy. So far, the people from Li Chen’s dorm hadn’t encountered monsters and been eliminated; it was clear she was formidable, having faced monsters many times.

He wished he were a girl too, so he could live by Li Chen’s side, the sense of security would be overwhelming.

Ah Chen’s dorm-mates noticed what Liu Mingming was thinking and were a bit speechless. He’s dreaming.

If a monster had been killed, everyone would naturally be pleased, but it’s hard to confirm. It’s the last night, and everyone braced themselves.

In the agonizing wait, everyone welcomed the final night, heartbeats pounding in their chests, nerves taut.

But Ah Chen was the most relaxed, figuring the monsters should be smart enough not to approach her.

However, after lights out, she saw a shadow slide in through the crack under the door.

She propped her head up, waiting for the monster to approach. So, its desire to win was that strong? Even on the last night, it wanted to provoke her.

Ah Chen quickly realized she was wrong; the monster snuck in through the crack and headed towards her dorm-mates’ positions.

Ah Chen frowned, quickly thinking of something, and called out, "Are you still awake?"

On the last night, were people not being dragged into a different dimension?

"Awake," Bai Qiaoqian’s head was under the blanket, she hadn’t slept at all. Last night, danger was constant; how could one sleep?

"The monster is here," Ah Chen said. "Tonight, we probably won’t be taken to a different space. It will appear before everyone and start the monster’s hunt."

Everyone poked their heads out from under the blankets and looked outside, just in time to see the monster slowly moving toward Bai Qiaoqian along the wall.

As if realizing it had been spotted, it actually paused, seemingly contemplating whether to continue or to slip away.

Bai Qiaoqian said, "If you want to die, then come over. I have a tool."

The monster hesitated for a moment, then sneakily backed away, slipping out through the crack in the door like a thief.

The scene was actually quite amusing, but thinking that this was the last night and that there might be some crisis, no one dared to laugh, nervously paying attention to the situation outside.

In their vigilance, they actually heard noises from outside.

Shortly after, they heard the sound of the door opening next door, and then Li Yao’s voice, with her footsteps approaching their dormitory.

But just as she reached the doorway, she let out a scream and ran away into the distance.

"It must have been the monster at the door that saw her and chased after her," Ma Qin said.

What they didn’t know was that Li Yao was holding a hammer, originally intending to knock on Ah Chen’s dormitory door. In her view, since the people were offended anyway and Adventurers couldn’t kill each other, she’d first break open the door and hide inside.

But she hadn’t expected a monster, just scared away by Ah Chen, to be at the door, which got excited upon seeing her, rushing at Li Yao with its jaws open wide.

Now there were two monsters chasing Li Yao.

After an unknown amount of time, a monster slipped in through the crack in the door, immediately noticing six pairs of eyes.

Ah Chen said, "Why don’t you just leave and find food elsewhere."

Since they were awake, it was better not to let the monster eat their roommates, how gruesome.

The monster paused for a moment and silently slipped out.

A bit intimidated. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Thank you, Li Chen."

"Really, thank you."

The roommates quickly expressed their gratitude, truly clinging to a life-saver.

"You’re welcome, we’re all roommates," Ah Chen said. They weren’t unlikable, and living together was their luck—luck is also a form of strength.

"If you come across someone named Wei Wenlan in the future, as long as it doesn’t endanger yourselves, please look out for her."

Even if they didn’t assist her, it was fine. Given Wei Wenlan knew Ah Chen, these people wouldn’t actively plot against her, and that was enough.

Everyone naturally agreed; Li Chen’s request wasn’t difficult, and they could understand the underlying message.

In such a world, encounters with some checkpoints inevitably lead to scheming against each other.

The long night passed, with only Ah Chen’s dormitory being the quietest.

When it got light, everyone went to the classroom.

Liu Mingming was still there; they didn’t even need him to do a headcount, as a quick glance could tell there were fifteen people left in Class 2, Grade 11.

Ruan Xiao wasn’t there, and naturally, neither was Li Yao.

[Adventurers, congratulations on passing.]

Everyone was enveloped in a beam of light, but Ah Chen heard a discussion nearby.

"I really didn’t dare go into that dorm. Li Chen is so formidable; you all experienced it yourselves. I don’t want to get beaten up."

"I took a look too, and was immediately stared at by six large, watery eyes. It really made me embarrassed, made this monster blush."

"Ruan Xiao, stop dazing, we’ve all passed. Even if you want a rematch, it’s not possible, unless you find another instance to try."

Ruan Xiao: "Who said I want a rematch? It’s just that I rarely make friends, and this friendship is truly too short-lived."

However, Ah Chen didn’t immediately return to the rest space, and a mechanical voice sounded in her ear: [After completing three instances, a reward level is triggered. Would you like to enter the reward level?]

"Enter."

Curious about what a reward level was, Ah Chen wondered.

The next moment, Ah Chen found herself in a white, misty space. In front of her were many platforms of various shapes, stretching out of sight.

[Reward Level: Leap Challenge, 5-minute time limit. Jump continuously to the center for more coin rewards, good luck!]

Ah Chen tried jumping to the center of the next platform, and a golden effect popped up on it: +2 coins! Accompanied by music.

Then without hesitation, she quickly jumped onward.

+4 coins!

+6 coins!

+8 coins!

...

+32 coins!

+32 coins!

...

Might as well jump since it’s giving free coins, no point in not jumping. Five minutes, right? Earning tens of thousands of coins shouldn’t be a problem.

Don’t be fooled by how easy she makes it look; for someone else, it wouldn’t be so simple, as the distance between platforms sometimes varies, and they’re not all square-shaped, so it’s easy to slip off the edges.
