Ding—
When the shoes stepped on the dividing line between the corridor and the building, it felt like passing through a thin film.
Buzz—
The continuous audio sound and the resonance with the brain ceased.
The cicadas' chirping suddenly disappeared, as if the arc-shaped sound waves had abruptly contracted in that instant.
The campus seemed eerie from the moment they stepped inside.
Gu Xinghe suddenly realized—
Dungeon side quests within the game system.
Rather than asking players to discover the "Seven Wonders", it's more about players discovering the "Seven Wonders".
Rather, it's actually hinting to players that there are seven extremely dangerous and eerie places in this school that they need to be careful and pay attention to.
After passing the pond, Gu Xinghe and his group of ten walked through a long corridor with various flowers and plants carved on one side of the wall.
We arrived at the entrance to the staircase of the building in front of us.
This should be the teaching building in the teaching area of the campus that undertakes the main teaching tasks.
Judging from its appearance, the teaching building is shaped like a square with the upper left corner being a right angle.
Apart from the staircase they entered at the bottom left corner after passing through the corridor.
There should also be stairs leading into the building on the other side, located in the upper right corner.
Enclosed in the central area by the teaching building are the small auditorium and the emerald green pond in front of it, which we just glimpsed.
Just as the group of ten was about to step into the stairwell, they saw a mature woman already appearing at the bottom of the stairs.
It seems they came down from the teaching building looking for them.
This might be the Elaine teacher that Carol and Rekaya were talking about.
She was wearing a dark blue dress with a light blue long-sleeved shirt underneath.
He wore a buckled belt around his waist and a pair of thin black-rimmed glasses, giving him a serious and capable look.
Her sharp gaze swept over everyone present, and several new players even turned their heads away, not daring to meet her eyes.
At this moment, when she saw the recruitment flyer still in Carol's hand and the player with the injured arm, her eyes sharpened.
"Carol, you've accepted a 'bribe' again!"
"Teacher Elaine, how could you insult my fine character like this!"
That's a gift between new classmates, a symbol of our friendly interaction!
Carol seemed completely unafraid of Elaine's piercing gaze, and even continued to refute her arguments logically and persuasively.
"Everyone couldn't resist giving us gifts because they thought Carol and Rekaya were so cute."
And it wasn't just me and Lekaya, everyone else received some too..."
Carol, who had already started spouting nonsense with a straight face, even began to point the finger at Tao Changyi and the others.
But Carol, who acted dangerously in front of them, seemed to be genuinely a little afraid of Elaine's nagging, just as she claimed.
Her argument seemed to be losing momentum, and her eyes began to wander uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Elaine could only sigh helplessly.
Then, she focused her gaze on the player with injured hands, and addressed the other freshmen present.
"Hello, new students! I am Elaine, the only teacher at Dawn Boarding School."
I will also be responsible for your teaching from now on, and I hope we can get along well together.
Elaine bowed slightly to the crowd.
"Alright, now I need to take this new student to the infirmary to treat his wound."
Carol, you take the other freshmen to the classroom first, and don't you dare cause any more trouble this time!
Elaine nodded to the player with injured arms, signaling him to follow.
In the end, she still couldn't put her mind at ease and reminded and warned Carol again.
"Okay, Teacher Elaine."
Carol responded in a drawn-out tone, seemingly still finding Elaine's words a bit long-winded.
But when they heard the words "infirmary".
Gu Xinghe noticed that the three players who had entered the instance earlier all changed their expressions.
At this time, Karen once again took on the responsibility of guiding the new students.
The teaching building in front of us appears to have six floors from the outside.
Upon entering, Gu Xinghe discovered that the first floor of the building was actually the lobby.
Among them are paintings, manuscripts covered with writing, sculptures and other items that are hung or decorated.
These appear to be works by high school students.
On both sides of the lobby, there are staircases that allow you to continue upwards.
After entering the lobby, teacher Elaine parted ways with them, taking the player with injured hands with her and leaving first.
It seems that the health clinic is located on the first floor.
Because we didn't stop to take a closer look along the way.
Gu Xinghe only knew that Carol led them forward rapidly, and the classroom where they finally stopped was on the third floor.
But it seems that this was because everyone had already given each other a gift before entering the campus, and because of Elaine's instructions.
This time, Carol was before entering the classroom.
Indeed, they no longer charged people the seemingly outrageous "entry fee" to enter the classroom.
Gu Xinghe followed the others into the classroom.
This is a classroom that can accommodate about fifty people.
However, judging from the fact that only a few of the neatly arranged desks in the classroom had items on them.
This classroom is probably used by only a handful of students.
Apart from the desks in the middle area, the front of the classroom features a blackboard and a podium, which are quite common.
On the back wall of the classroom, there is also a blackboard newspaper that was probably created by the students themselves.
Based on Carol and Rekaya's previous conversation, Gu Xinghe guessed that this might have been drawn by Rekaya.
Below the blackboard, there is a row of cabinets for students to store their personal belongings.
"Brother! Brother! How about you sit next to me and Rekaya?"
Carol's words interrupted Gu Xinghe's thoughts.
At this moment, she was standing next to a desk, waving her hand and speaking to Gu Xinghe.
Speaking of which, the reason they call him "brother" seems to be because they still don't know his real name.
Gu Xinghe turned his head and saw that Carol should have been sitting in a window seat on the left-hand back row.
Her sister, Lekaya, sat behind her.
The desks in the classroom were not arranged in the conventional sense; each student sat alone.
But at this moment, the two girls had already moved the table and chairs they were sitting on, and pulled up an empty table next to them that no one was sitting on.
The three tables and chairs were placed side by side.
Judging from Carol's previous words and the current arrangement of the table and chairs between the two,
The two sisters clearly wanted him to sit between them.
Seeing this scene, Gu Xinghe felt that it was strangely similar to the scenes in the slice-of-life school anime he had watched before.
