Chapter 181 Mizuki Private High School (Fifty-three)
The accommodation environment of the private high school is indeed as good as its reputation, better than most of the copies they have entered.
From the outside, the girls' dormitory looks like a pink castle.
The crystal glass of each window is carved with paintings of different themes. Under the illumination of warm lights, it feels full of vitality, which forms a sharp contrast with the dark campus in the distance that seems to be hiding a secret.
However, as everyone entered, they were shocked by the humidity inside which was far above the standard, causing everyone to stop in their tracks due to discomfort.
The main color inside the dormitory is still pink, but because the air seems to be shrouded in moisture, the pink color looks like it has been washed, giving off a sticky feeling.
A faceless teacher, who had received the news earlier, was waiting in the hall downstairs and took the eight of them to four rooms respectively.
The rooms are allocated according to class, two people in a room, and it is a not small double suite.
The bathroom, living room, bedroom and balcony are all available, and even the necessary daily necessities have been prepared.
The eight people were all on the same floor. As freshmen, they had no other plans for the day. There was still some time before eight o'clock in the evening. Bei Xi and President Barbie gave a few brief instructions, and everyone returned to their dormitories to rest.
Nanhuan, on the other hand, might have taken a nap in the afternoon, so when he returned to the dormitory, he didn't feel sleepy at all.
Plus, she was a little curious about the dormitory itself, so when Beixi pushed the door in, she was visiting and was suddenly hugged from behind by Beixi.
"What did you whisper to Chaka just now?"
There was no one else here, so Bei Xi didn't have to worry about anything. She put her arms around Nan Huan's waist without concealing them at all, and slipped into her dark blue school uniform.
Before Nan Huan could even open his mouth, half of his body went limp due to Bei Xi's actions.
She controlled her breathing and wanted to finish the serious matter first, but she found that her knees began to tremble and she couldn't stand steadily.
"Didn't you... hear everything?"
In order to welcome the arrival of new students, the school used some kind of fruity fragrance in the cleaned rooms. The sweet air added some ambiguous atmosphere because of the two people's actions.
"What?" Bei Xi denied it and teased Nan Huan by leaning close to her earlobe, "Didn't you want to talk to her alone? I didn't hear anything."
She played dumb to the end, holding the softened Nan Huan in one hand, moving her slender fingers as if playing the piano.
Nan Huan had no choice but to put his hands on Bei Xi's waist and abdomen to increase the distance between them. He suddenly broke free from Bei Xi's arms, turned around and stared at Bei Xi with a red face.
"In the illusion, she clearly knew who she wanted to avenge, and who or what had inspired her malice and resentment. But after leaving the illusion, she didn't remember any of these things. It might be the system's doing."
Nan Huan seemed to be worried that if he stopped, he would not have time to finish what he wanted to say, so he took advantage of this opportunity to pour out everything in his mind. "She also told me that in the illusion, she couldn't see my face clearly at first, and it was only after I was shot that she could barely see it clearly."
Bei Xi originally just wanted to tease Nan Huan and then have a good talk with him about how she impulsively protected him just now.
Unexpectedly, I actually got some unexpected gains. What I just heard was not comprehensive.
She raised an eyebrow. "So you think there might be some connection between Chaka and Yanqi?"
Bei Xi knew what Nan Huan was suspicious about, and nodded. "The system always does things that backfire like this, but if it doesn't intervene, Cha Ka might not go crazy after seeing your appearance."
“No…” Nan Huan shook his head, took Bei Xi’s hand again, and sat down on the sofa in the living room. “That’s not what I want to say. I want to say that if Chaka has an impression of my face, she is very likely…”
Although he knew that even if they lowered their voices, it would still be difficult to evade the system's detection, Nan Huan still lowered his voice, "She is different from the other copies, even her appearance is different."
Bei Xi smiled softly and pulled Nan Huan back into his arms. "So you have carefully examined his appearance. I didn't know that."
She uttered this in a discontented voice, as if saying to Nan Huan, you haven't settled your previous account yet, and now you've brought another piece of evidence?
Nan Huan was amused by her frivolous question, and patted her on the shoulder. "I'm talking about serious matters, please be serious."
"I'm talking about serious matters. Have you forgotten that we still have a score to settle?"
Nan Huan turned around and was shocked to see Bei Xi's serious expression. She had wanted to use this topic to divert Bei Xi's attention, but she didn't expect that the topic would end up back at the same time.
The prey always misunderstands the timing of the hunt, and by the time she becomes aware of the trap, she is already deeply trapped in it.
Before Nan Huan could move, Bei Xi hugged him and rolled him onto the sofa.
The two of them whispered to each other. Bei Xi felt that this was in a dungeon and she didn't know what would happen at night, so she didn't do it to the end. She just hung Nan Huan with her hands, forcing the other party to shed a lot of tears.
Finally, after he begged for mercy pitifully, the emperor finally carried him sideways to the bed in one of the bedrooms and coaxed him softly.
"There's nothing to worry about Chaka," just when Nan was drowsy, she suddenly heard Beixi's voice. Before she dared to move, Beixi still cared about the other party's safety, so she heard the next sentence out of the blue.
"Have you never heard of the evil that lasts for a thousand years? She still has an arrow in her hand. I'm afraid that only others will worry about her. Once we find clues related to Yanqi's disappearance, the truth will probably be revealed..."
Nan Huan tried to move his eyelids, as if he wanted to make some remarks, but in the end, a gentle kiss fell on him. Bei Xi coaxed him softly, "Be good, go to sleep for a while. Who knows what will happen at night!"
Sleepiness came over him like a tidal wave, and Nanhuan stopped struggling.
Sure enough, sleep quality is positively correlated with the quality of exercise before bedtime.
Nan Huan woke up from a nap and was fed something that suited her taste. After Bei Xi's repeated instructions and the dinner that Twelve brought back from the restaurant, she finally woke up completely. The life teacher who had disappeared for a whole day finally showed up.
Perhaps because Morpheus was injured and not very mobile, this brief meeting was arranged in the living room of her and Mammon's dormitory.
There were 25 players coming out of the school in the afternoon, 16 of whom were girls, plus a life teacher, all crowded in this not very big living room.
Nan Huan was yawning and lazily being led by Bei Xi, standing at the back of the team.
Occasionally, through the gaps between people, I could see Murphys, still lying on the sofa with a pale face.
"When will she be well?"
It was the first time that Nan Huan heard about the iron dagger's lethality that afternoon, but then she changed her mind and realized that Bei Xi had always used it to attack NPCs, and it was always accurate. Morpheus was lucky to be able to keep his life.
If it were in a fantasy world, Bei Xi would probably not give the other party a chance to resist.
"Let's get out of this dungeon." Bei Xi shrugged nonchalantly, "They are just superficial injuries, they won't affect anything."
Nan Huan looked at the blood oozing out of the gauze on the other person's abdomen, and remained silent without commenting on the "skin injury".
"Good evening, everyone. First of all, congratulations to everyone for passing the one-day test and obtaining the corresponding ranking."
The life teacher counted the number of people before speaking.
She was obviously familiar with this line of speech. After saying this, she paused at the right time, waiting for everyone's applause.
However, the new students this time were all players. They had experienced a fierce battle in the afternoon, and some of their companions had died. At the moment, they were in no mood to act here with her, an NPC, so the small space was very silent.
She didn't seem embarrassed at all, and continued to speak, "But since it's a ranking, there will definitely be a first and a last. The school is also very concerned about everyone's grades and credits. We know that the freshmen have just arrived at Shuimu Private High School and have many difficulties to adapt to, so we decided to provide after-school tutoring for the last five in the Beixi baseline test, so that everyone can improve quickly."
If this happened in a normal school, I wonder if those students with poor academic performance would be happy.
But Nan Huan is sure that no player will be happy if this happens in this copy.
Even though they had already known about the after-school tutoring in the afternoon, they still didn't think it was a good thing.
"The after-school tutoring time is scheduled from midnight to three o'clock. A teacher will come to pick you up at that time. There are two girls here, Xu Mengjie and Yang Yina."
As if afraid that the students didn't know that this after-school tutoring was weird, the life teacher once again announced the strange tutoring time, making the already silent living room even silenter.
After a long while, a trembling voice finally rang out from the crowd, "Teacher, is after-school tutoring mandatory?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a pale-faced girl standing near the sofa, asking in a trembling voice, "My grades used to be very good, but I made a mistake today..."
"After-school tutoring is the school's way of caring for students. How can you poor students be so unsatisfied?"
The amiable life teacher who was originally sitting on the sofa stood up immediately upon hearing the sound. His movement was so big that it affected the wound on Morpheus' body on the other side.
She suddenly raised her voice, as if she had suddenly become a different person, and looked at the girl with an aggressive look.
Morpheus' body had not yet recovered, and he quietly left the battlefield.
"What after-school tutoring session will be held in the early morning?" The girl's already trembling body, under the gaze of the life teacher, suddenly collapsed and responded with her face covered, "You just want me to die, you just want me to die..." She stumbled back, as if trying to run out of the room.
Nan Huan frowned, she didn't know why the female classmate reacted so strongly, but after she saw the female student's actions, although the life teacher's tone was very stern, the corners of his mouth were upturned, especially when he saw that the other party was planning to escape.
She was just about to put out her hand to block the other person, but someone was quicker than her and grabbed the girl's sleeve. Then he lowered his head and whispered something in the girl's ear, and the other person stopped struggling.
"Teacher, we understand. We will attend the after-school tutoring on time in the evening."
Another tall girl stood in front of the life teacher.
His tone was sincere, yet neither humble nor arrogant, as if he was silently urging the other party to end this farce.
"Who are you?"
The life teacher was not very satisfied. Such a good show was interrupted and he spoke in a bad tone.
"I'm Yang Yina, and she's Xu Mengjie. We'll attend after-school tutoring together in the evening and try not to hold other students back."
She smiled obediently, like a student who was really listening to the lecture.
The life teacher then waved her hand indifferently and turned the page, but it was obvious that her interest was interrupted and she didn't have the same patience as before.
"Oh, and the most important dormitory rule is, do not leave the dormitory door at night, and do not leave the dormitory without permission no matter what noise you hear."
After the life teacher said this and saw the fear in the new students' eyes, he left with satisfaction.
Nan Huan, on the other hand, was not in the mood. After all this trouble, all he said was "You can't leave the dormitory", which felt like it was the same as not saying anything.
She lazily hooked her fingers with Bei Xi's, ready to go back to sleep, but before she had taken two steps, she was stopped by Morpheus.
"Miss, you are very resourceful. We fought hard in the forest this afternoon. Who would have thought that you could trick the flag from President Chaka with just a few words without any effort."
Morpheus had sat up with the help of Mammon.
Although players are prohibited from killing each other in the game, the people around her still have to be very vigilant because of Morpheus's injuries.
Most of the players stopped because of Morpheus's sudden appearance.
After hearing what Morpheus said, combined with the president and the eldest lady's frighteningly high scores, the remaining players finally figured something out and their faces turned unpleasant.
Their scores in their final physical practice test were shockingly low, but the problem was that when the mission was over and they came out of the woods, they had no idea who the host was.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with what the president and the eldest lady did. Moreover, they led the team to victory, giving her the opportunity to get a not-so-high score.
But if it weren't for them, let alone victory, more people might have lost their lives in the forest.
But the problem is, they succeeded without much effort. In this case, players can't help but think more about why they are unwilling to tell the identity of the host to all players, let everyone contribute, and then average the score in the end?
After all, the identity of the host is randomly selected by the system. In their shallow understanding, if they are selected, they might be able to get high scores.
Although except for Xu Mengjie and Yang Lina, the rest of the people have not had the opportunity to go to after-school tutoring for the time being, but in the future, it would be better to have more credits.
Nan Huan of course understood why Murphys chose to say such things when everyone was around. She reached out and pressed Bei Xi's clenched fist, then turned back and smiled.
"Thank you for the compliment. I also think I'm pretty lucky."
She did not deny Morpheus's words angrily, but continued, "But you have to understand me, right? I have three pieces of faith totem fragments on me. The mission just now did not restrict 'killing each other'. How would I know if the remaining players want to take advantage of the situation? After all, everyone came to this dungeon for a reason, so I don't need to say more, right?"
"But luckily I was still careful, otherwise how could President Murphys be injured so badly?"
Nan Huan brought the topic back to Morpheus, "But I'm very curious about why President Morpheus is fighting for justice. After all, when you brought your people to trip us up and wanted to take advantage of the situation, you didn't inform other players, otherwise you might have succeeded by now."
The players who had just been instigated by Morpheus' words calmed down after Nan Huan's words.
After all, Morpheus's injury was real, which meant that she had a conflict with a guild. They only learned of this news after they left the woods.
No matter how important scores are, they are not as important as your life.
Fragments of faith totems and the like were not something they considered for people like themselves who were at the bottom of the class. As for the battle between the first and second ranked guilds and another unknown guild, they loved to watch the fun, but if they got involved, they would probably be the next to lose their lives.
After understanding this, no one stayed to watch the fun anymore. Everyone left in a hurry, fearing that if they waited too long, someone would be unhappy and they would be stabbed by the iron axe.
Because Morpheus was injured, he originally wanted to get the remaining players to stand on his side because of what happened in the afternoon, but he didn't expect Nan Huan to be so straightforward and make things clear. Now he has made things worse and everyone has run away. Her face has become even uglier.
"President Morpheus should take good care of his injuries. This superficial wound is not easy to heal."
Nan Huan saw that the other party stopped talking and had no interest in continuing the conversation.
Bei Xi's eyes were cold, "You won't be so lucky next time."
The feud has already been formed, and there are suspicions that Morpheus is related to the system, so Bei Xi will not let him go easily.
When the two of them left Murphys' dormitory, Nan Huan paused slightly. The moment the door closed, she seemed to smell a familiar fragrance, but she couldn't remember where she had smelled it for a moment.
This chapter was quickly covered. It was the first night in the dungeon and it was the first time I felt so relaxed.
No one in their team went for after-school tutoring, and apart from not leaving the dormitory, there seemed to be no other taboos.
The dungeon missions were suddenly so relaxed, especially the dungeons that contained the fragments of the Faith Totem, which made the players from Guild One and Guild Two feel uncomfortable with the situation.
After President Twelve and President Barbie passed by, visited, or even made small talk for various reasons and came to the dormitory of President Yi and the eldest lady, Bei Xi said, "No one should leave the dormitory at night," and then ruthlessly locked the door and carried Nan Huan into a bedroom.
Just when the bedroom finally returned to silence, something seemed to flash by outside the window.
