Chapter 2 Happy University (Part 2)
Feng Zhibei took a look at the number of people in the live broadcast room. There were nearly two hundred people online now.
He ignored the comments in the live broadcast room and carefully observed his roommate's girlfriend under his feet.
This "girlfriend" only had a face covered with fat, with red and white tissue stuck around her face, constantly splashing as she struggled.
"What should I do with this thing? I can't just carry it to the school gate, right?"
Feng Zhibei squatted down and used his knees to support it to prevent it from moving.
[Is this plot here, everyone? I don't remember there being a part where roommates called each other before.]
[Maybe the game has been updated, who knows]
Suddenly, the flip phone vibrated again.
Feng Zhibei held the flip phone in one hand and opened the cover with difficulty.
The caller ID said it was Mom.
Feng Zhibei was distracted for a moment, but quickly reacted and answered the phone.
"Xiaobei, didn't you say you were going to complete the departure procedures today? Why is there still no news? Dad and I will wait until Sunday at the latest. If you can't come back on Sunday, don't come back."
Across from me was a woman with a low, hoarse voice. After she finished speaking, she coughed heart-wrenchingly, as if she was going to cough out her lungs.
Feng Zhibei felt inexplicably cold.
He thought for a few seconds and replied, "Okay, I understand."
The other party was silent for a while and then hung up the phone.
Along with the busy tone, the system prompt sounded at the right time.
[Ding! Family Happiness Index -0.03, Current Family Happiness Index 0.27]
Feng Zhibei was shocked: "No, why is it upside down? I didn't do anything!"
The barrage of comments was gloating over this.
[It's funny. Other anchors try their best to curry favor and say nice things when their mothers call them, but why is this anchor so indifferent?]
[Aloof and beautiful, hehe, what a pity, it’s all because the wilderness is not human and has a commentary category]
He looks like a rebellious teenager... the kind who gets impatient even when his parents call.
【Love】
[Love +1]
[Do you think he can complete the commentary in the end? Although the start was strong, the plot was too slow and biased...]
[Is there any need to think about it? Iron juice, of course not! ]
Feng Zhibei stared at the barrage.
For some words he could only see asterisks, probably because some blocking mechanism was triggered.
He shook his head slightly to shake off the loose hair that was blocking his vision, and then he prepared himself mentally and picked up his roommate's girlfriend who was standing under her feet.
"Hmm... I guess I need to find something to put it in."
Otherwise, carrying this thing out will greatly affect my movements.
The most important thing is that it has been struggling. Although its killing power is extremely weak, it splashes blood everywhere.
Feng Zhibei took the old schoolbag off the table and dumped all the books inside onto the floor. Then he casually stuffed his roommate's girlfriend, whose face was only visible, into the bag and quickly zipped it up.
He patted his bulging backpack and said, "Okay, be quiet. I'll pack you up and send you to your boyfriend later."
The roommate's girlfriend inside let out a shrill scream.
Feng Zhibei carried his schoolbag in one hand and searched the dormitory, only to find a rusty fruit knife that could barely be considered a weapon.
Although the blade is so rusty that it is unrecognizable, it is better than nothing.
[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the primary item—???'s fruit knife.]
Although it is covered with rust now, it will have unexpected results after use! 】
“…”
He looked at the knife in his hand and tentatively scratched it across his palm.
Very good, not even a print was left.
Feng Zhibei casually put the knife in his clothes pocket, thought for a moment, picked up one or two books that looked relatively thick, and threw them into his schoolbag.
He walked out of the dormitory with his schoolbag.
It's three o'clock in the afternoon. If the sun sets early, it will be dark around five o'clock.
There are only two hours left to send my roommate's girlfriend off.
There are also applications for leaving school...
Although Feng Zhibei himself had never been to university, he was well aware of the arrogance of those in power and did not believe that the senior leaders who signed the contract at the school would actually wait for them until evening.
If I go there too late and fail to sign my application to leave school, I don’t know what troubles may arise.
He walked out of the dormitory.
The empty corridor was filled with the smell of blood.
He looked around with a frown.
There are ten dormitories on this floor, two of which have their doors open and blood splattered outside.
He gripped the fruit knife tightly and moved forward cautiously.
When passing by these two dormitories, Feng Zhibei glanced at them out of the corner of his eye.
There were several bloody people lying inside, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive. Next to them was a monster that looked like my roommate's girlfriend, tearing at their flesh.
Feng Zhibei didn't stay for long and left immediately. He wasn't that kind-hearted to save someone in such a situation.
He walked straight to the stairs and prepared to climb down.
Just as one foot stepped into the stairwell, he suddenly stopped.
[Why don’t you go down? The scene in the corridor is very exciting.]
[Go down quickly, go down quickly, go down quickly, I really want to see the anchor die]
[I love watching this episode the most. This monster is so fierce, it can tear people apart.]
From Feng Zhibei's perspective, he could only see more asterisks in the barrage.
The sudden increase in blocking comments is obviously abnormal.
He stood at the stairs and looked down.
Nothing could be seen in the corridor. Only the faint light from the emergency sign painted the inside an unsettling dark green.
Feng Zhibei thought for a moment and threw the schoolbag in his hand into the corridor.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was accompanied by a shrill scream.
The barrage was blank for a few seconds, and then began to be filled with question marks.
【? ? ? ?】
[No, he threw his girlfriend in the hallway. What will he give to his NPC roommates?]
[The anchor is finished, go away, stop watching]
Then, an annoyed voice was heard in the corridor.
"Who interrupted me while I was memorizing?"
In the darkness, a middle-aged man poked his head out, his eyes looking particularly cold under the green light.
Feng Zhibei hid behind the outer wall of the corridor without making a sound.
The middle-aged man's face was distorted, his eyes were bulging and bloodshot, as if they were about to fall out of their sockets.
He angrily picked up his schoolbag and slammed it to the ground, making a dull thud.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Blood began to seep from the seams of the schoolbag, and the struggle weakened.
Until the middle-aged man stopped, there was no movement in the schoolbag.
He threw aside the backpack that had been hit and broken, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
The middle-aged man turned around suddenly and saw a young man with long crimson hair standing at the stairs.
"Senior... I'm sorry, that's my bag," Feng Zhibei said hesitantly, tears in her eyes, "It's full of my review materials, can you please give it back to me..."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly roared, and his strong body began to twist, making a creaking sound.
His head split open, revealing several swollen white brain masses. His body was swollen, and his bloodshot eyes stared at Feng Zhibei:
"Is it your bag that disturbs my recitation?"
When Feng Zhibei saw this scene, his body stiffened for a moment.
Although he wasn't afraid of playing horror games or dying, facing the situation of a person turning into a monster was still a bit too exciting.
He lowered his head, his long bangs covering his eyes, bent slightly, and his voice trembled.
"I'm sorry... I didn't know you were reciting your lessons here, and I didn't mean to disturb you. Actually..."
Feng Zhibei raised her hand cautiously and pointed to the dormitory outside the corridor. A tear ran across her dark teardrop mole and dripped down her cheek.
"My roommates complained that I was reciting too loudly and disturbed them... so they threw my books and bag out. I'm really sorry..."
"I really have no other choice! Senior, you are so serious and you are memorizing in the corridor, you should understand me!"
The middle-aged man gasped for a few moments, and his body, which had been twisted beyond recognition, slowly recovered. He picked up his schoolbag and went upstairs to hand it to Feng Zhibei.
The schoolbag was soaked in blood, and Feng Zhibei took it with trembling hands.
The middle-aged man has now regained his human form. His weathered face is filled with apology. "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was like this. Please go down the stairs."
Feng Zhibei suddenly looked up, with excitement in his eyes, and kept saying "Thank you, senior", then quickly slipped down the stairs.
[…So, I can still live like this? ? ]
[Can I be treated as a doctor even if I'm weird? ? ]
[…While other streamers were fighting with his roommate's girlfriend, he had already gone downstairs. Can anyone explain why he was so successful?]
[The rule about the face girl seems to be based on educational background, but isn't this game instance restricted to those with a bachelor's degree or above? However, there have been high-star players who cheated in before.]
[Fuck, playing a game and even bringing up academic discrimination]
Feng Zhibei rushed downstairs and threw his schoolbag to the ground as soon as he reached the dormitory door.
He lowered his head and was quiet for a moment, then suddenly chuckled, followed by a series of low laughs.
"I didn't expect the NPCs in horror games like this to be so easy to fool. They believed everything I said. It's just that they look a little too exciting. I've never played a VR horror game before, so this is the first time I've encountered something like this..."
Feng Zhibei smiled with her eyes curved, and tucked her hair behind her ear with the hand that had not touched the schoolbag.
"What did the audience think of my performance? Was it okay?"
He looked at the barrage.
[You kid, pointing fingers]
If an NPC saw a beauty with a teardrop mole crying in front of me, I would let him go.
[NPC just made a mistake that everyone would make]
[I really didn't expect that NPCs could communicate. I suddenly felt that the anchor who died here before was so unjust.]
The number of people online in the live broadcast room has now reached five hundred.
Feng Zhibei tilted his head slightly and smiled perfectly, "Thank you for your support, everyone..."
"Please continue to support me in the future. After all, you are all I have now. You are my bread and butter."
He said, winking at the barrage.
Feng Zhibei was satisfied to see that the barrage of comments was flooding the screen, and the number of people in the live broadcast room increased significantly.
The schoolbag at my feet suddenly twitched twice.
Feng Zhibei's whole body stiffened for a moment, then he stomped on his schoolbag twice until there was no movement inside.
He rubbed his feet on the ground a few times with a look of disgust.
"It's so dirty... It's so sticky. I don't know how a face could have been hit and so much blood came out. It makes me smell."
[Sichuan Opera face-changing, love it]
[It's so funny, he just finished flirting with his fans and then he goes to kick the NPC]
Feng Zhibei was just planning his next move when he heard a system notification sound.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for being the one with the fastest game progress! Receive 500 points as a reward!]
Congratulations to the anchor for upgrading to a one-star anchor and unlocking more permissions! Click to view]
Feng Zhibei frowned and clicked the confirmation button.
Sure enough, there was so little information given when I first entered the game. It turns out that I have to upgrade to unlock it.
In the upper right corner of the panel, in addition to his own name, there is an ID photo and a status column.
Feng Zhibei in the ID photo is different from now. She has long black hair and bangs tucked behind her ears, revealing a pair of lifeless eyes.
The status bar has two values, one for health and one for spirit.
The health bar is red and almost full, while the spirit bar is blue and has been cut in half.
[Health: 94 Spirit: 52]
"What does this mean? Is this a disguised way of calling me a psychopath?"
Feng Zhibei muttered softly.
Below the ID photo, there are six stars, only one of which is filled with blood red.
There are five buttons on the right side of the entire panel, namely Properties, Backpack, Assets, Shop and Guild. The latter two are gray with a lock pattern on them.
Feng Zhibei clicked on the assets page.
【Current assets: 1500 points
Ways to earn points: automatic settlement of popularity in the live broadcast room; unlocking achievements inside and outside the dungeon; rewards and exchanges, etc.
If the assets exceed 30,000 points, the company will charge a 20% handling fee for every 10,000 points above the limit.
When he saw the last sentence, Feng Zhibei recalled the grief-stricken expression on his assistant's face when he helped him pay his personal income tax.
He never cared about money and had no financial crisis, so he didn't understand the other person's psychology.
Now he understands.
...dog company.
Feng Zhibei's mouth twitched and he clicked the copy information button on the left side of the panel.
【Dungeon Name: Happy University
Instance level: one star

Special Mission: Deduced 30% of the hidden plot and successfully explained it.
Current tasks to be completed: Go to the secretary's office to complete the departure procedures.
Total exploration degree: 5%]
Feng Zhibei narrowed his eyes slightly. The copy information was much more detailed than when he first entered the game, and it could provide a lot more clues.
For example, this "hidden plot".
"In other words..."
Feng Zhibei looked up at the entire campus. There were few people on the street. Occasionally, a few warmly dressed students hurriedly walked by with books in their hands. The buildings looked very shabby and were covered with withered vines.
The sky was gloomy, and a few crows cried from time to time on the bare branches.
The plot was not just based on the dull campus life and family disputes as he had imagined, but there was something deeper to discover.
Feng Zhibei shook his head to shake off the strands of hair in front of his eyes.
The most important thing now is to complete the next task.
He looked at the tasks to be completed in the copy information.
[Go to the secretary's office to complete the departure procedures.]
Remaining completion time 00:53
Please complete the task actively. If you fail to complete it within the required time, you will be punished! 】
