Chapter 129 Senior
Lin Han made sufficient mental preparation before logging off.
He had anticipated the worst-case scenario and had already decided to let Song Ziyi take the lead, at least to help him share some of the firepower.
It was wrong for him to hide it from his family, but Song Ziyi had known about it for a long time. He was also an accomplice. As a good brother, he should have stood up at this time, otherwise all the "privileges" he brought to Song Ziyi would have been wasted.
It’s just... ideals are full of hope, but reality is very skinny.
The second before logging off, Lin Han had rehearsed the entire process of returning home twice, but the script was not written that way from the beginning.
Lin Han had just sat up from the nutrient solution and was about to stand up with the help of the robot guarding outside when he found that the light around him was extremely dim.
Lin Han sat there without moving. He wiped his face to free his eyes, and soon a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Song Ziyi's game cabin, which was originally not far from his game cabin, has been moved away, and his elder brother is sitting in the vacant space.
When he turned his head again, he saw his second sister on his left and his parents on his right. He looked back slowly and saw his old lady sitting there with a stern face.
Lin Han: “…”
Lin Han: "Hello...long time no see?"
The family that was blocked in the game cabin by Lin Han last time was probably here to seek revenge this time, and the same experience happened to Lin Han again.
Almost from the moment Lin Han started speaking, a flurry of concern mixed with light scoldings poured into Lin Han's ears.
The voices of men and women, big and small, mixed together. He actually didn't hear a single criticism. He only remembered that Ms. Yu Ye wrapped him up in a large blanket that had been prepared long ago, and while wiping him, she kept calling him "baby".
Just like Lin Han when he was a child.
Lin Han's nervousness soon calmed down as they chattered.
No matter when, being around family members who care about you is always relaxing and heartwarming.
As for Song Ziyi...
When Lin Han was dragged to the bathroom to clean the nutrient solution off her body, she took the time to glance at him.
Song Ziyi, who was on the same front as him, was kneeling in the corner of the sofa with his head down and had no time to care about anything else. Next to him was the old lady of the Song family who was pulling his ear, and his parents and sister were also there.
Lin Han also saw Liu Guoqiang.
However, even with his status, it seemed inappropriate for him to intervene in this kind of situation. He could only sit in a corner not far away like a quail, staring at Lin Han all the time. He also noticed Lin Han's gaze, which looked quite helpless.
But at this moment, Lin Han was helpless and was taken away half-heartedly.
You know what, Lin Han’s house is particularly lively today.
The two families were criticizing their youngest child, and there was also a group of staff members from the New World Strategy Center. Lin Han's originally spacious villa seemed a little crowded.
The love and affection lasted for nearly two hours. Lin Han repeatedly assured her that she would not be harmed in the new world and that everything was game data, just a false illusion. Only then was the old lady reluctantly taken to a nearby villa to rest.
In fact, everyone is smart and not easy to fool. However, they are different from Lin Han and Song Ziyi. They really think that no matter how special the new world is, it is just a game. In the end, they were fooled by Lin Han.
Sitting back on the sofa, Lin Han let out a long sigh.
Song Ziyi, who was standing next to him, was still rubbing his legs, mumbling and complaining, "You did it all, and you ordered the copy too. Why is my crime of not reporting it so serious? My old lady almost hung me up and beat me!"
Lin Han looked at him silently for a while, and an idea flashed through his mind: "I'll treat you to a meal after we go in."
Song Ziyi: "...Alfred did it?"
Lin Han: “…Yeah.”
Song Ziyi: "Then I want to eat three meals!"
Lin Han: “…”
I don’t know if Teacher Alfred is willing to cook three more meals for him.
Because he didn't pay for the meal himself, but the other person was actually cooking. Although the two times Lin Han saw Alfred cooking in front of him, he looked quite cool and didn't sweat a drop, but when he thought about ordering a dish with a strong wok flavor in the future and Alfred flipping the wok where he couldn't see, Lin Han would feel a little embarrassed.
Although he felt embarrassed, Teacher Alfred had already said it and he would definitely not take it back.
Lin Han pursed his lips. If it really didn't work out, he would take Jiang Xuchen with him next time.
After comforting Song Ziyi, Lin Han and he began to discuss information with Liu Guoqiang, and also made a summary of this copy, and by the way, listened to what happened in the outside world when he was unable to get out of the copy.
Especially regarding the second internal test, he stayed in the dungeon for quite a while this time, so this matter should have produced results.
Lin Han didn't know anything about the internal test broadcast. He couldn't get any feedback about the external broadcast situation in the new world. He didn't even know when the broadcast would start or end. Naturally, he didn't know whether his performance in the copy this time was seen by countless viewers.
It has happened so many times that it is impossible to say that it has no impact on Lin Han. In the past, Lin Han might have felt a little embarrassed about his loss of composure during the live broadcast, but now he almost doesn't care at all.
I've already cried, it's too late to regret now.
It’s just that there were some things in the copy that shouldn’t have been revealed. At that time, his emotions were not very stable, and he may have revealed some of them intentionally or unintentionally.
During dinner, neither Alfred, who served as his guide or the NPC who communicated closely with him in the dungeon, nor Jiang Xuchen, one of the parties involved, showed anything wrong, but Lin Han himself still felt that something was wrong.
Without Lin Han saying anything, Song Ziyi, as someone who knew the inside story, knew exactly what Lin Han was worried about, so before Liu Guoqiang asked any questions, he directly told him a summary of what had happened outside during this period.
During the beta live broadcast, they watched most of the plots from beginning to end, such as Lin Han's repetitions day after day and the styling given to him by Alfred later.
Almost all the conversations can be heard normally, only a small part of the words have been muted. They cannot hear them because the third-person perspective is blocked by external objects and they cannot judge from the lip movements.
But most people's attention was focused on the fact that Alfred was also serving as an NPC here. This was similar to Shen Qiuqiu who had previously given Song Ziyi a backdoor in his dungeon. So some people also questioned why Lin Han was able to behave closely with the NPCs in the dungeon, and continued to argue about the "backdoor" statement.
As for what happened in the last cardboard box, they could not hear any sound except the sound of the system prompting them to pass the level.
The live broadcast perspective was forced to switch to the first-person perspective. They could only follow Lin Han's perspective to see the wall from the chandelier on the ceiling, and then see the blank-faced person next to him.
Including when Lin Han borrowed Vivian's ability to show the image of Jiang Xuchen growing up, they could only see the longer and drooping hair like Lin Han.
New World's previous customer service system responded too quickly. During this live broadcast, I don't know how many people chose to ask questions about things they felt were unfair or wrong, and without exception, they were all blocked by the tough official rhetoric.
Everything that Lin Han was worried about was handled well by the New World.
After hearing Song Ziyi's words, Lin Han couldn't help but relax a lot.
Liu Guoqiang really wanted to know what those muted words were, and what those invisible images were. Lin Han actually didn't want to hide it from him, but in the current situation, he seemed unable to tell the other party easily.
Lin Han originally boarded the New World Strategic Center through Song Ziyi. Because of the close cooperation between Song Ziyi and the other party, he was almost firmly tied to this ship.
However, as the internal test progressed and his relationship with the people in the new world deepened, Lin Han seemed to have been taken aboard the new ship of the new world.
Ever since he chose to tell only Song Ziyi about his ability to take him out of the New World, and didn't mention it to Liu Guoqiang, he could no longer be "honest with the New World Strategic Center" and Liu Guoqiang.
Song Ziyi also knew the secret, but he also did not tell Liu Guoqiang.
When Lin Han was thinking about how to make a reasonable explanation so that Liu Guoqiang would not be overly suspicious of him, the middle-aged man had already started to smile foolishly.
"Before I came here, I was told that if something is secret and can't be told to us, just skip it. It's not important." Liu Guoqiang looked at Lin Han and Song Ziyi sincerely. "We have been working together for a long time and hope to continue to cooperate in the future. After all, our original intention is to help everyone move forward and for the benefit of everyone."
Lin Han looked at Liu Guoqiang, who was smiling at him.
Because he had seen Alfred's formulaic smile so many times, he had actually become immune to this kind of smile that seemed friendly but had an unknown meaning inside.
If he could use the "exclusive perspective" outside the new world, he probably really couldn't help but use it on Liu Guoqiang to see the real emotions behind his smile.
Just like Alfred is always so gentle to Lin Han, Liu Guoqiang's image around Lin Han and Song Ziyi is always that of a reliable and honest contact person. He has never done anything he shouldn't have done, and he always thinks on their side.
It is natural that he cannot be a simple character to be entrusted with such an important task, but Lin Han and Song Ziyi looked at each other and still felt that their daily interactions would not lie.
It can only be said that the relationship between the top management of Blue Star and New World is very deep and the cooperation is close. They also know some secrets that Lin Han and others don’t know, so they allow Lin Han and Song Ziyi to get close to each other and don’t think there will be any potential threat.
Therefore, those secrets involving Jiang Xuchen's "brothers" were concealed by Lin Han and not shared with Liu Guoqiang, and he did not ask any further questions.
Everyone tacitly avoided discussing such issues.
As for Lin Han's method of clearing the [One Day] copy, it was too special and originated from himself.
Apart from him, no one else could pass the level using his method.
After figuring out the true purpose behind the existence of the copy, Lin Han told them the requirements for passing the copy.
As long as you can enter the cardboard box and meet that person, you can complete this loop copy.
However, he will provide too much wrong information and wrong ways to pass the level, waiting for people to take a wrong step and then all steps will be wrong.
Maybe only Song Ziyi could rely on his good luck to accidentally enter that cardboard box.
Others, including Lin Han, don’t even think about it.
In addition, Liu Guoqiang is more interested in the abilities of the teachers in the college, and Lin Han can share a lot of information about this.
The New World Strategy Center had already fully understood Lin Han's rocking music and exclusive perspective, and also gave a suggestion to Lin Han on how to replace the three blank experience cards, which Lin Han also agreed with - Su Fu or Alfred.
Among the rocking music illustrated books that Lin Han currently owns, it seems that the abilities of Su Fu and Alfred are the most useful to him.
Ten minutes is indeed short, but it can also play a role at a critical moment.
Vivian's ability is actually amazing.
If imitation can replicate other people's abilities in addition to appearance, then the existence of her ability is almost equivalent to an experience card for Lin Han. If she can switch between different imitation characters, it means that Lin Han can do more things with the abilities of different people within the limited ten minutes.
Unfortunately, Lin Han's understanding of her was limited, so he could only put it aside for the time being.
After all, if you don't enter the dungeon now, there is still time to continue researching.
When he enters the new world again, he will not miss any information he can get from Alfred.
The list of participants for the second internal test that Lin Han was curious about was announced while he was still groping in the cardboard box. There were ten people in total, and half of the seats were occupied by people from Blue Star, which had already caused dissatisfaction among many people.
However, the official attitude of the New World is as tough as ever. The planets of the other people who were lucky enough to be drawn are too happy to join the team criticizing the Blue Planet. In addition, the live broadcast of the internal test has been going on. Over time, the heat of this matter has become less and less, and no one is discussing it.
No one can change the New World officials' minds unless they want to change them themselves.
However, that time they only announced the name list, and did not specify when the second internal test would begin. Song Ziyi was busy watching the internal test live broadcast and had no time to worry. It was not until the end of today's copy that a new announcement came out.
The ten selected players for the second internal test need to confirm that they are online at 12 noon tomorrow, and the official will open a special channel to the internal test plane for them.
The announcement did not specify the name of the internal test plane, but everyone had a common guess - the academy plane.
The hidden dimension where Lin Han is.
Liu Guoqiang has always been thinking about doing business with Lin Han. Although Lin Han has not gotten anything good to take away so far, it may not be impossible in the future.
"Hanhan, take me flying~~"
This is Song Ziyi's home turf, and when he heard this, he immediately came up to hug his thigh.
That was a hidden dimension where Lin Han had already created a great kingdom for him, and he felt like a fish in water once he entered it.
Besides, there is also his good friend Shen Qiuqiu whom he met last time. Even if Lin Han enters the dungeon later, he can still take him around.
Song Ziyi: "......"
No, that scene was too cool. He wished he could close his eyes and open them again at 11:59 tomorrow.
Song Ziyi poked Lin Han's arm. "After we finish discussing this, I have to go online quickly. My fans can't wait for me to share the latest news with them. You know what it means to be a loyal fan!"
Lin Han: “…”
Liu Guoqiang also brought the list of the other four people from Blue Star to Lin Han, but Song Ziyi was more familiar with them, so when they really went there, he would let them follow Song Ziyi, so there was no need for Lin Han to contact people he was not familiar with.
With time, they will naturally become familiar with each other. Forcing Lin Han to build good relationships with them will only backfire.
In addition, I don’t know if it is a coincidence, but the other five players who participated in the second internal test all have a good relationship with Song Ziyi.
Because of Song Ziyi's recognized good luck, as long as it is a copy that can cooperate, almost no one will deliberately target him, and it will be too late to win him over.
If Lin Han could see the barrage, he would find that there was a person named Luo Yu on the list. He had been maliciously used as a pawn before. For this reason, he had contacted Song Ziyi privately early on to express that he had no such intention.
But this was not important to Song Ziyi, and he didn't think about it at all.
However, the academy's dimension is still speculation and not completely certain. It will be revealed tomorrow.
The three of them got together and had a lot of things to confirm, and it took until late at night to finish.
Even so, Song Ziyi couldn't wait any longer and wanted to go back to the New World, so he ended the meeting early. Liu Guoqiang also needed to summarize and organize the information he had obtained today for the other four people. Lin Han finally had some time to rest.
Unlike Song Ziyi who went straight to the game cabin, Lin Han opened Song Ziyi's live broadcast room and watched him chatting with the viewers who were still active in his live broadcast room late at night, while going to the kitchen to wash a bunch of grapes for herself.
While the water was washing Lin Han's hands, his eyes kept uncontrollably sweeping over the pot next to him that he knew how to use.
He used this pot when he lived in a house near the company. Later, when he moved, he brought the pot with him.
This is the pot that Lin Han has used for the longest time and is the most convenient for him.
Lin Han: “…”
It's so strange, why did his eyes automatically follow this pot?
The grapes had been washed and placed on a plate. Lin Han wiped the moisture off them and then wiped his hands. In the end, he hesitated for a long time but was unable to leave the kitchen with the plate.
Song Ziyi's noisy chatter was heard in her ears. Lin Han looked at him again and again, and finally followed her heart and fried herself an egg with the pan that seemed to be in her hand.
It is golden in color and round throughout, a good egg.
Of course, the most important thing is that he is a good chef.
Lin Han: My cooking skills are really good!
Soy sauce poached eggs with grapes, although the combination is a bit strange, it is not inedible.
Song Ziyi's energy seemed endless, but Lin Han didn't really get a good rest after completing the dungeon.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Xuchen and Vivian. Then he went out to eat and logged out of the New World to review the game with Song Ziyi and Liu Guoqiang. It was not until he lay on his bed and looked at the moonlight outside the window that he was really sure that he had returned to his familiar environment.
Perhaps because of the influence of the crystal chandelier in the cardboard box that he had been looking at for too long, Lin Han now needed some light in the room before he could close his eyes.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he would recall everything in the copy, those familiar yet unfamiliar faces, and the words those faces spoke.
Before lying down, Lin Han looked at himself in the mirror for almost half an hour, trying hard to memorize his face.
It wasn't pleasant to forget his feelings, and he didn't want to make the same mistake again in the future.
He also heard Alfred's voice.
When styling, even if he does not feel pain at that time, he will not miss any feeling except the pain.
Either a sentence like "It's okay" or "It will be fine soon" seemed to have a soothing magic, allowing Lin Han to calm down quickly without being seen and stop trying to peek at his own wounds.
Lin Han fell asleep listening to this voice that only existed in his memories.
Almost at the moment he fell asleep, a thought popped up in his slow-thinking brain: Song Ziyi might enter the academy dimension at 12 noon, and he seemed to have forgotten to set an alarm to wake himself up.
But it was useless to realize this, Lin Han fell asleep.
-
"I am ready."
"I am ready."
"I am ready!"
The sentence was repeated three times, each time louder, firmer and more powerful than the last.
Song Ziyi, who was wearing casual clothes, clenched his fists tightly. He was obviously trying to cheer himself up, but his face was smiling brightly, like a blooming chrysanthemum, and he couldn't close his mouth.
There were no such costumes in his dimension. Liu Guoqiang reminded him of this - it seemed inappropriate to enter the academy dimension with the makeup and attire he wore in this dimension.
From Lin Han’s description of the academy and some of the scenes seen in the previous live broadcast, it can be seen that the style of the academy plane is obviously completely different from the immortal cultivation plane.
Before being reminded, Song Ziyi didn't find it strange, but once it was pointed out, he thought about the image of the ribbons of his white dress and hair bun swirling behind his head. If he really stood at the college gate, he could only think of the new classmate who sang and danced at the school gate at the beginning of the school year.
Song Ziyi: People can’t, or at least shouldn’t.
In short, after choosing for a long time, he chose a loose outfit close to that of a student, ready to COS the new transfer student.
He is also a kind-hearted person who is willing to help others. Not only did he notify the four people in his family, he also notified the other five people one by one.
As for whether he listens or not, that is none of his business.
[Xiao Song, the new world didn't mention it was the academy dimension. What if it's wrong?]
[What are you afraid of? He's the one who's embarrassed, not you. Besides, our Xiao Song is really thick-skinned~]
[Using something that is not definitive to mislead others, haha!]
......
There are those who care about Song Ziyi, and naturally there are also those who mock him.
Song Ziyi responded in a rare good mood: "Who do you care if I'm misleading you? It seems like no one from your group was selected."
He glanced at her but didn't say much. After saying this, Song Ziyi put him out of his mind and only thought about Lin Han coming to pick him up and taking him to the college to have a meal.
Oh yes, there is also a dormitory. He wants to be neighbors with Lin Han, but if he remembers correctly, Shen Qiuqiu has already occupied this position, and it is not good to ask her to move out, otherwise it will hurt their feelings.
Then he could only reluctantly set up a bed in Lin Han's living room, which should be quite big.
Song Ziyi: Xiao Song, I’m not picky about places at all.
Song Ziyi: Grandfather, if you came to the secret place to look for me but didn’t see me, it’s because your good grandson went to study!
Fifteen seconds before the scheduled time, Song Ziyi heard the system's confirmation reminder.
As soon as it finished counting ten, and the new teleportation light array appeared in front of him, he rushed straight in.
It was almost the same as the magic circle that connected all previous planes. The transmission only took a moment. In the blink of an eye, the scene where Song Ziyi was located had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Just like Lin Han when he first stepped into the academy, he saw for the first time what Lin Han saw.
But he saw more.
Unlike Lin Han, who was mostly just an ordinary student in the academy plane and could only rely on props except for the two healing abilities, Song Ziyi came with his strength from the immortal cultivation plane. Even though he didn't know whether he could use it in the subsequent internal test copies, he could indeed see the outlines of the various auras filling the academy with his unique eyesight.
Even in the apparently empty air, he could vaguely see an almost translucent outline, floating like the wind.
The most obvious thing was that he could no longer fly the moment he landed.
Song Ziyi quietly made a hand gesture, and the strength was still there.
It's not a big deal.
In addition to him, the other nine people also had different expressions, but no one spoke, they just gathered around him.
They all listened to Song Ziyi's advice, so their sudden appearance here did not seem strange.
In an unfamiliar place, it is more reassuring to be with familiar people.
Especially since this familiar person seems to have a very thick thigh to hug.
There were indeed a dozen people waiting for them in the empty square at the entrance, and they were now walking towards them.
However, the face that Song Ziyi longed to see was not among this group of people.
But it doesn’t matter, there are still acquaintances.
Song Ziyi opened his arms and hugged Shen Qiuqiu who was coming towards him.
"Qiuqiu! Long time no see!"
"Ziyi! I miss you so much!"
The two of them were almost hugging each other and spinning around.
The audience in the live broadcast room of the ten second-round beta test players watched this scene in silence. Only those on Song Ziyi's side could enjoy the benefits of the closest perspective.
Audience: My Ai Bo is a big shot in society, he has connections everywhere.
Song Ziyi asked, "Where's my Hanhan? Why didn't she come to pick me up?"
Shen Qiuqiu didn't know either: "I knocked on the door when I came, but he didn't answer me."
Song Ziyi: "......"
I was so excited last night that I forgot to add the big guy into the game.
This greatly reduced the enjoyment of his school trip.
But at this moment, Lin Han, riding the white tram, finally arrived at the nearest point and was running towards the door.
It was already eleven fifty when Lin Han woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, he knew something was wrong. He brushed his teeth hastily and jumped into the game cabin. Only then did he remember that he was still in the dormitory before he logged off.
Lin Han: “…”
In short, after arriving at the battlefield after a series of life-and-death speed struggles, Lin Han looked at the group of people in front of him while panting.
From the academy, I only know one person, Shen Qiuqiu. I may have greeted the others but they are unfamiliar. On the other side, I only know one person, Song Ziyi. I have an impression of his face but I am not familiar with him.
Lin Han expressionless: There are so many people.
Shen Qiuqiu had followed Lin Han for a few meals and now had become Teacher Weiwei's means of transportation. Her status had risen rapidly, and today she was also the leader of the freshman welcome team.
He looked at Lin Han, his eyes showing undisguised admiration and longing. When Lin Han subconsciously wanted to step back, he had already waved his hand: "Why are you still standing there? Shout!"
Lin Han, Song Ziyi, and the other nine players exchanged bewildered glances. Before they knew what Shen Qiuqiu was talking about, the members of the college welcome team had already followed Shen Qiuqiu in shouting.
"Hello, senior!"
Lin Han: “…”
Lin Han: “?”
Wait, isn't he a freshman?
He had clearly just entered the academy not long ago, and these dozen people, including Shen Qiuqiu, were logically his seniors.
Although Lin Han only called Alfred and the others teachers, he never really cared about his relationship with other students in the academy.
The confusion on his face was too obvious, so Shen Qiuqiu came over to explain to him: "Brother Han, we respect the strong here. We understand if you want to hide, but we still have to call you senior in formal occasions. After all, you are much closer to graduation than us."
Lin Han: “…”
Shen Qiuqiu had only greeted the welcoming team before, and did not bring the ten new students today.
But if Shen Qiuqiu didn't greet him, someone else would.
Lin Han knew Song Ziyi had bad intentions as soon as she saw him in the eyes, but it was too late to stop him.
Song Ziyi waved his hand and said, "Why are you still standing there? Shout!"
Then the next second, they all shouted "Hello, senior" in unison. The voices were so loud that Lin Han almost saw stars and closed his eyes as if he could not bear it.
So embarrassing.
Lin Han silently told herself to stay calm, while secretly saying, "Song Ziyi, you're done. You're really done. I will never take you out for even one meal."
But before he could finish thinking about how to punish Song Ziyi, he suddenly felt a weight on his thigh.
Lin Han lowered his head silently, and saw Song Ziyi hugging his thighs, grinning with two rows of white teeth: "Senior, can you help me improve?"
Lin Han: “…”
Shen Qiuqiu next to him seemed to be ready to move, but his speed was still not fast enough.
Among the nine players standing blankly nearby, a blue-haired boy immediately followed Song Ziyi's movements and hugged Lin Han's other thigh: "Senior, I really want to improve too!"
This person is not from Blue Star, but he still speaks the official language of Blue Star. His pronunciation and intonation are not standard, and it sounds a bit funny.
But Lin Han, whose thighs were held, couldn't laugh at all.
He must not be awake yet, he wants to go back to sleep.
There are always new students singing and dancing when they enter school.
The farce ended with Song Ziyi being kicked twice by Lin Han.
