【Nightmare University Campus Forum】
Main Building: Alumni, have you all received that message? Is it true or just a joke?
The main post was vague, but players who saw this post understood it almost immediately and clicked in to comment.
1l: hhh, the original poster should be referring to the message sent by the school office this morning. Although the content is a bit outrageous, the school office should not make such a joke.
2l: Is this your first time signing up for Nightmare University? Hilarious! I feel that naive, almost newbie-like feeling. Don't doubt it, Nightmare University is like that. It often throws big fuss, catching its students completely off guard.
3l (the original poster) replied to 2l: You guessed it right, I am indeed a newbie QAQ, and I have just enrolled not long ago. I want to ask, does our university often cause trouble?
4l: Yes, often (lights a cigarette with melancholy)
5l (the original poster) replied to 4l: In other words, it is actually normal for our principal to run for mayor of H City?
6l: Normal, the principal's basic skills are terrible. Look at what the principal has accomplished: First, he launched a business war to monopolize players, and Nightmare University jumped to the top of the overall rankings within a month; the internship program inspired players to invade other strange domains in large numbers, conquering more territory without a single soldier; and he launched a variety show in the real world to increase his popularity and attract more people to Nightmare University. From these things, it's clear that the principal has ambitions. Now he wants to completely unify H City. I can only say that it's no surprise.
7l: Career fans are ecstatic! Support the principal to defeat the other domain masters and unify H City!
8l: Support the principal to defeat the domain lord of the entire nightmare world and unify the nightmare world!
9l: Support the principal to defeat the stupid humans in the real world and unify the real world!
10l: It’s not right to say that we are not brothers.
11l: Alumni, the moment to witness history has arrived! Go vote for the president! One vote for you, one vote for me, and the president will be king tomorrow! (bushi)
12l: Um, actually, I want to ask, what's the practical significance of this kind of voting? Are there any alumni who would support other domain owners for mayor? Aren't they 100% likely to vote for the president?
13l: Maybe it just serves a formalistic purpose?
14l: I have a bold guess! That is, this is actually a test of the principal's obedience. If any student does not vote for the principal, he will be assassinated by the principal!
Ye Ao < What Can I Do (15l): It’s so funny. If you don’t understand, don’t try to guess. The truth is that the principal molested other jade pigs in H City and signed a gambling agreement. Whoever gets the most votes will become the new mayor of H City. It’s not like what you guys do!
16l: Holy crap, the legendary Red Name Boss has appeared! Front row photo! But there seems to be something wrong with this Red Name Boss's input method. Random guesses? Obscene threats? Jade Pig Territory Lord? Random guesses?
17l: I was shocked. At first glance, I thought the principal had such strong tastes! This new celebrity has a lot of typos.
18l: I haven't seen this forum nickname before. I don't know which faculty member it belongs to. He seems young, and he uses a non-mainstream nickname, which is quite cute (is this something you can say?)
19l: Reply to Ye Ao
Ye Ao
21l: Reply to Ye Ao
Ye Ao < What Can I Do (22l): Of course, I saw it with my own eyes last night.
23l: You’re just bragging, hahaha. It’s such a big thing as the principal signing an agreement, can people just stand by and watch?
Ye Ao
25l: Hhh what a cute way to curse. I was just guessing before, but now I really start to suspect that the principal hired child labor. Is Ao Ye over five years old? (Pure curiosity, no malice)
Ye Ao
27l: Damn, Ao Ye is still in kindergarten. I can’t tell whether he is playing abstract or real.
28l: Reply to Ye Ao
The appearance of the new red-name ID "Ye Ao
The Nightmare University internal forum is a new on-campus communication platform, rumored to have been developed by the new dean of the School of Computer Science. Players can team up with teammates, share strategies, and post rants. Some faculty members occasionally peek in and, upon seeing a topic of interest, contribute a comment.
In order to avoid the occurrence of fake faculty and staff, the forum developers deliberately used red-name IDs for distinction.
The one that popped up the most times in the past was the red-named ID called "I Saw Your Little Secret".
This guy is as strange as his name suggests. From time to time, he will go to a post and reveal some little secrets. When he is in a good mood, he will reveal some information to the players for free. When he is in a bad mood, he will maliciously share gossip that will make the poster socially unlucky.
His personal style is so obvious that it is hard for players not to guess that the person behind this ID is the voyeuristic dean of the School of Communication.
In addition to the red-name ID "I Saw Your Little Secret", another red-name ID that often appears on the forum is "Yaxu001".
Whenever a player makes a suggestion in the forum, "Yaxu001" will instantly appear and reply with a sentence "The suggestion has been included". If a player makes inappropriate remarks, it will also trigger a mute warning from "Yaxu001".
It's so funny. Suggestions are included, but they may not be adopted.
In the forum, "YaXu001" will appear, but the answers he gives are sometimes irrelevant. Players privately call him "artificial idiot".
Players have long speculated about who is behind "Yaxu 001". Who else could have the ability to ban players on the forum except the elusive new dean of the School of Computer Science?
However, this human-machine dean seems to have a bad relationship with the voyeur dean, because whenever the ID "I saw your little secret" makes gossip, he will be banned by "Yaxu001" for various reasons.
Over time, players discovered the discord between the two deans.
Apart from these two well-known enemies, only a very small number of red-name IDs will show up. The Eda Forum advocates freedom of speech. As long as you don't say anything too aggressive or suicidal, you will generally not be held accountable offline by the dean.
Therefore, this new celebrity with the ID "爷傲<奈我何" is really a breath of fresh air in the forum. Not only does he make typos in his public speeches, but he also childishly challenges players to offline duels.
Some curious people boldly tagged "I Saw Your Little Secret" and "Yaxu001", wanting to know more about the deeds of "Ye Ao < Nai Wo He".
In the end, he actually showed up.
I Saw Your Little Secret (2011): A kindergarten student can actually use the forum. Who taught him bad things?
Yaxu001 (202l): You can’t blame me. I’m also afraid of being cursed by him.
203l: No way, Ao Ye is actually in kindergarten?
I saw your little secret (204l): Reply to 203l, I want to dispel the rumors about Ao Ye, the news is all true, Ao Ye is illiterate, and was forced by the principal to go to kindergarten, but I don’t recommend you to fight with Ao Ye offline, cherish your life, stay away from Ao Ye, you will come back to thank me.
205l: Is it really that terrifying? I'm starting to wonder what skills Ao Ye has.
206l: Horrible! Ao Ye just arrived and his underwear has been stripped off. Is this a weird twist or a moral decline!
A car was parked quietly at the gate of Qizhi Kindergarten. The moment the twisted and weird bell rang, the disheveled players scrambled out of the childlike kindergarten.
After almost all the players ran away, a teenager with his hands in his pockets and an unhappy look on his face walked out of the kindergarten. He was carrying his schoolbag in one hand, and his face was full of hostility. If he dyed his hair yellow, he would definitely be a bad boy.
The unhappy boy opened the car door and sat in the back seat without saying a word. He crossed his arms and sulked, leaving his brother to guess.
Cen Xun was lowering his head to send a message. For a while, he didn't hear the boy's excited voice sharing his daily life. He glanced at him distractedly and asked, "Were you bullied in kindergarten today?"
The boy's stern expression suddenly collapsed, and he gritted his teeth angrily, "Brother, someone is mocking me online for bragging! I want to challenge them one-on-one!"
Cen Xun's gaze fell back on the screen, and he said calmly, "Aren't you illiterate? How can you surf the Internet?"
"I asked Yaxu to read it to me," the boy snorted coldly, opened his phone, and drew circles on the screen with a grin. "How dare you laugh at me for being a little kid? I'm going to show you how powerful I am! I'm going to make sure you never run out of toilet paper, crash your car when you go out, forget important knowledge points during exams, get stuck in your teeth when drinking water, and fall down on flat ground."
Cen Xun: “”
Cen Xun said silently to the driver, "Drive."
Wusa, who was in the passenger seat, turned around and asked, "Principal, are we going back to school?"
Cen Xun: "Let's go back."
Cen Xun went out to do some work and picked up his ninth brother who was in kindergarten. Unexpectedly, this childish boy kept yelling for revenge and asked Cen Xun to let him go halfway because he had an appointment with someone to fight there.
Cen Xun responded noncommittally: "One-on-one is fine, but don't violate the school rules."
The young man patted his chest and raised three fingers with a determined look: "Don't worry, brother. If you break the school rules, I, Wu Aotian, will immediately strike you down!"
""
"Brother, why don't you call me by my name?" The boy looked at him eagerly, "You clearly said that no matter what name I gave myself, you would think it sounded good."
Cen Xun: "But he really couldn't pronounce that middle school name.
The boy tugged at the corner of Cen Xun's clothes: "Brother, please call me, just once! If I don't hear that, I won't be able to do my homework properly tonight, ball ball."
Cen Xun couldn't persuade him, so he finally said with a dark face, "Wu Jin, shut up."
Wu Jin, also known by his courtesy name Aotian, was the name 0009 gave himself.
0009 himself thinks this name is awesome and can well show his dominance and strength, and he hopes everyone can call him Wu Aotian.
Cen Xun was a little bit unable to accept this. Chaos, whom Feng Jihan mentioned, was a creator god after all. How could such a weirdo be born from his divine blood?
"Brother, you called my name. I feel so happy!" Wu Jin rubbed his face against the corner of Cen Xun's clothes like a puppy. He didn't get angry when Cen Xun pressed his face and pushed him away. When he saw the place, he sat up suddenly, said goodbye to Cen Xun with full energy, threw the black and red schoolbag on his back, and got out of the car with a fierce look.
Wu Sa watched Wu Jin leave, then turned and asked Cen Xun with some concern, "Will there be any problems if we let Jiu Shao go alone?"
"It's okay, Yaxu will keep an eye on him," Cen Xun pressed his brows, "He's been in prison for ten years. Find him something to do to distract himself."
Otherwise, Wu Jin, who is obsessed with his brother, would pester Cen Xun all day long, and Cen Xun's luck in drawing cards would become worse.
Who understands the pain of spending a lot of points but only getting the guaranteed result every time?
While Wu Jin was away, Cen Xun returned to the principal's office and turned on his computer. He drew another ten-draw bet in the hope of getting some money.
The succubus suit that he had been longing for still had not been obtained, and what appeared was still the regular maid suit. This was the twentieth time that Cen Xun had drawn the maid suit.
He took a deep breath and calmly closed the card drawing page.
Yaxu tempted, "Four more shots and ten combos will guarantee you a guaranteed reward, Principal, are you sure you don't want to try again?"
Cen Xun said coldly: "It's up to you if you want to, I won't smoke anymore."
The game was developed by Yaxu, and Cen Xun once suspected that Yaxu was behind the scenes. For this reason, he even used puppet strings to control Yaxu and forced him to tell the truth. But no matter how Cen Xun pressed the issue, the answer he got from Yaxu was always that he had not done anything behind the scenes.
Cen Xun couldn't get the chance simply because he was unlucky.
[Misfortune] can influence and change the luck of others. He is surrounded by misfortune. If he does not transfer the misfortune to others, he will be the one who suffers.
This is also the reason why Wu Jin has been unlucky during the ten years in prison.
Affected by the Jailer's skills, Wu Jin simply forgot how to use the skills, so he was unable to transfer the bad luck on him, and ended up being unlucky all the time.
Even though Wu Jin can now transfer the bad luck on him, he will still unconsciously affect the luck of those around him.
It may get better or worse, it all depends on your face.
As a high-level big ghost, Cen Xun would naturally not be affected too much, but even in the small matter of drawing cards, Cen Xun was unlucky every time.
Forget about the other things, it’s really a shame that he can’t get the new Succubus set.
Cen Xun turned his gaze to the user rankings and inadvertently discovered that his ranking had dropped to second place.
The top-ranked pay-to-win boss used the original avatar and name, and looked unpretentious, but in fact, he defeated the principal with his huge financial resources and became the number one in this rip-off pay-to-win game.
Cen Xun narrowed his eyes. "Who is this? He's even more willing to spend money than me?"
In order to earn points/money, Yaxu not only promoted the game in the nightmare world, but also launched the game into the real world, dividing it into real servers and nightmare servers.
The krypton gold rankings of the two servers are also separate. Cen Xun is playing on the nightmare server, so the one who is the sucker at the top of the list is either a player or a monster.
Yaxu still had some professional ethics and firmly refused to disclose the user's private information to the principal: "It is inconvenient to disclose the user's privacy."
Cen Xun looked at the number one on the list, his lips curled up in amusement. "Is this hard to guess? In this vast nightmare world, besides me, who has the most spare cash?"
"My dean of the School of Economics and Management is truly a hidden talent." Cen Xun held his chin up and asked thoughtfully, "Does Wusa know that he's playing this?"
Yaxu: ""
Cen Xun, unsure of what to think, said maliciously, "Eighth Brother, if I tell Secretary Wu about Qin Xiu's spending money on the dress-up game, will he panic and give up playing the game, leaving you with a wealthy, paying player?"
Hearing the threat in Cen Xun's words, Yaxu's electronic voice immediately fluctuated: "What do you want?"
"Give me forty cigarettes as hush money, or I'll report you to Secretary Wu."
Yaxu immediately said, "Don't report it!"
"Will you send me off?"
Yaxu endured the humiliation and said: "Send it, I will send it."
The free forty draws were immediately credited to his account, and Cen Xun felt relieved.
What bad luck?
He insists on changing his fate!
While Cen Xun was happily drawing cards, an artificial intelligence that loved making money was quietly shattered.
With just two sentences, she extorted forty lashes from him. The principal is the real devil!
If forty draws are converted into points, how many points will I get?
No, he has to earn back all the points he lost from the principal!
Not long after, Qin Xiu, who was busy settling accounts, received a game push.
[A limited-time interactive scene is now online! Click to receive a unique succubus tail. Come and join the event!]
Qin Xiu: "Succubus tail? Succubus? What kind of creature is this?"
After a brief struggle between his conscience and his desires, Qin Xiu reached out for his cell phone as if nothing had happened.
He just wanted to see what the succubus's tail looked like, and he definitely wouldn't spend money on it this time.
Time passed and the night of Nightmare University fell.
After Cen Xun reviewed and approved the last report, he opened the real-time vote count and took a look.
There are a total of 29 strange domains in H City. This is only the first day of voting, and Cen Xun is unsurprisingly far ahead in the number of votes he has received.
Last night, Cen Xun used the queen's ants to deliver networked communicators to all the domain lords in H City, and then had friendly exchanges with these domain lords for two hours.
After destroying two strange domains with missiles, the domain lords finally compromised with Cen Xun's fist and said that they could choose the mayor, but they had to do so in a fairer way, such as letting the players decide who to choose.
Cen Xun originally thought that if these domain lords were not obedient, he would simply blow up all of them, but after hearing this, Cen Xun changed his mind.
Killing these domain lords directly is certainly convenient and saves trouble, but if they are allowed to die like this, their points and abilities will also be destroyed by the artillery fire. Wouldn't that be wasted in vain?
So Cen Xun decided to make use of these waste domain masters.
So he agreed to the so-called "election by player voting" and signed an agreement with all the domain lords in H City.
If Cen Xun gets the most votes in the end, then the other domain lords will willingly surrender and hand over the strange domain and points. If other domain lords get the most votes, vice versa.
The betting period is two weeks. After two weeks, a new mayor with full authority will be born in H City.
Cen Xun dared to gamble because he had already determined that he would be the winner.
The other domain lords dared to gamble because they had no other choice. If they didn't take this gamble, they would die under fire. If they could win over the players, they might even have a chance to rise to become mayor.
Take a chance and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle!
The illusory carrot was hanging right in front of their eyes, and all the domain lords in H City were crazy about it.
Cen Xun knew that the major domain lords must be frantically trying to find ways to canvass votes, but he was not in a hurry.
If you want to canvass votes, you have to offer benefits. When the domain lords go bankrupt in their efforts to attract players, it will be time for Cen Xun to close the net.
Cen Xun closed the real-time vote count page and opened the nightmare system panel.
So many things have happened during this period of time that Cen Xun only remembered to take a look at the panel information now.
Prison guard 0000 was hated by all the prisoners in Chiyuan Prison, and finally even hated by the warden, which directly caused Cen Xun's awakening progress bar to jump from 33% to 63%.
Cen Xun had a premonition that his level would be greatly improved after returning from Chiyuan Prison, but he never expected that his level would be improved to this extent.
Cen Xun narrowed his eyes and looked at the information on his panel.
[Monster Name: Cen Xun]

Note 1: This feature is only valid during the internal testing phase. After the game is officially launched, the usage conditions will be adjusted to 100 points/point.
Note 2: Currently this skill is ineffective against purple-level monsters or F-level or higher players.
Cen Xun fell into deep thought, and all the levels of his identities became question marks. Does this mean that his true level has surpassed the Red Clothes level and become a higher existence than the Red Clothes level?
Cen Xun continued to look at the unique skills of each identity.
[Special Identity: Folklorist (?? Level)]
[Exclusive Skill 1: Nightmare Puppet Show (Red Level)]
[Exclusive Skill 2: Make Paper Come True (Orange Level)]
[Exclusive Skill 3: All-Seeing Talisman (Orange Level)]

[Special Identity: Dream Weaver (?? Level)]
[Exclusive Skill 1: Fantasy World (Red Level)]
[Exclusive Stunt 2: Butterfly Effect (Orange Level)]
After reading it, Cen Xun was silent.
There are so many complaints that I don’t know where to start.
Not to mention the sudden jump in his faith value to 2.3 million, the new skills that inexplicably appeared in his skill bar were also a bit outrageous.
The "Folklorist" role does not add any new skills, but the "Nightmare Principal" role adds two.
The skill [When three people walk together, one of them can be my teacher] has been upgraded to [When many people walk together, one of them can be my teacher]. After the upgrade, this skill is no longer learned randomly, but you can learn the desired skills directly from a certain person. The restriction has also been increased from learning five times a day to learning nine times a day.
In other words, you can copy any skill you want.
When prison guard 0001 dealt with the warden, he copied the skills of 0001 and others, using the upgraded [Where there are many people, there must be one who can teach me something].
That's a bit too outrageous.
Cen Xun looked at the second additional skill [Share What You Have], which allowed his followers to share skills with each other. For example, Yaxu could use Tong Ming's Eye of All-Seeing, and Tong Ming could use Wusa's Mirror Space.
But the prerequisite is that the domain master needs to enable this skill, obtain the other party's consent, and there is a certain distance limit.
Cen Xun: Quite interesting.
This skill is not very useful to Cen Xun himself, but if used on the battlefield, it can easily achieve a surprise victory.
For example, if someone wants to quietly kill the most fragile Tong Ming, and Tong Ming suddenly uses [Money Binding], wouldn't that catch the opponent off guard?
The third additional skill is the [Butterfly Effect] under the identity of [Dream Weaver].
[Exclusive Stunt 2: Butterfly Effect (Orange Level)]
[Stunt Introduction: A butterfly flaps its wings, triggering a hurricane. Will it bring good luck or bad luck? The outcome is in the butterfly's hands.]
Cen Xun raised his eyebrows slightly, butterfly effect?
It sounds like fun.
Play with it.
Cen Xun picked up his phone, activated his skill, and then sent a message to Feng Jihan: "Are you there?"
Cen Xun actually didn't have any expected ending. He simply wanted to test the waters with Feng Jihan, so he only gave Feng Jihan a general "good" ending.
Feng Jihan was probably busy and didn't reply immediately.
Cen Xun waited for a while, but nothing happened, so he put away his phone in boredom.
Probably because the awakening progress bar has reached 63%, Cen Xun's body is now very sleepy. Now that it has just gotten dark, Cen Xun feels a little sleepy, so he prepares to go back to sleep.
Not long after he walked out of the administrative building, Cen Xun suddenly heard a familiar loud noise in the sky, and then something black and sticky fell down and hit him directly in his arms.
Cen Xun subconsciously lifted it up, took a closer look, and found that the object that fell from the sky was none other than a large black and white bird.
The bird must have hit the protective net above. It was blown dizzy and took a long time to recover. It met Cen Xun's gaze in a daze.
bird:""
Cen Xun: “”
"I found a bird that threw itself into my arms," Cen Xun put the bird in his arms and said slowly as he walked towards the dormitory, "Obviously, he wants to go home with me."
The bird caught under the arm: ""
No, he was flying just fine, how come he suddenly ran into Cen Xun's arms?
This is unscientific!!
