The two arrived at a convenience store.
Lin Xue glanced at the notice board hanging at the door.
【Rule: 1. If you see staff wearing red vests, please pretend you don't see them and turn away.】
2. Spicy rabbit heads are okay to eat, but other foods are not.
3. Each item has a price; if not, please ask our staff.
4. The store does not have fruit; please leave if you see this.
5. Don't touch things you can't afford.
There were five rules posted at the entrance. Lin Xue glanced at them and then went inside the shop.
Whether these rules are right or wrong is another matter, there's no need to take them too seriously.
He had always followed closely in Lin Xue's footsteps. Since he had a powerful figure to rely on, he would be foolish to fight alone.
"Senior, look over there is a staff member wearing a red vest. Should we leave immediately?"
As soon as he entered, he saw a cashier in a red vest standing behind the counter.
"No need, just don't say anything, just follow me!"
The rules are designed to constrain human athletes, not to control other strange creatures in the school.
To truly integrate into Songshan Academy, one must forget one's human identity.
"Hey bro, where's the yogurt?"
As Lin Xue passed by the red vest, she casually asked a question.
These words terrified the person following behind him.
"It's in the freezer at the very back against the wall!"
To his surprise, Lin Xue's question did not offend the people in red vests; instead, they answered the questions very enthusiastically.
"Thanks!"
When she got to the freezer, Lin Xue took out two trays of yogurt and then went to the fast food section to pick out a few packs of instant noodles. She didn't even glance at the sausages next to her.
As for the spicy rabbit heads mentioned in the rules, although they are not considered strange food, they were all spoiled.
This stuff won't kill you, but it's disgusting.
"Senior, I still have eighty here!"
Seeing that Lin Xue had picked out a lot of things, he touched his pocket with some concern and took out all his savings.
The currency in this eerie world is different from that in the real world; it is paper money formed from eerie forces and carries powerful, eerie energy.
"No need, you can keep it!"
He placed all the selected items on the counter and then called out to the sales clerk in the red vest who was cleaning.
"Hey sir, come quick and pay my bill!"
Lin Xue's performance was as if she were an ordinary person in this world, without any sense of incongruity.
Compared to Lin Xue's casualness, You, who was following behind her, seemed a little nervous.
However, he truly admired Lin Xue; at least this senior was genuinely calm and hadn't violated any rules.
Is the best way to integrate into a bizarre world to forget one's human identity and become a monster?
Although Lin Xue didn't explain it to him in detail, the clever You still guessed some things.
"In total..."
After the man in the red vest came over, he picked up the items Lin Xue had selected one by one and looked at them.
"I never carry money when I go out, here, take this!"
"Keep the change, please!"
Before he could finish calculating...
Lin Xue tossed out a designer watch, then pulled a large plastic bag from the side and shoved all the items she had chosen into it.
"Thank you, Miss Xue, you are as generous as ever."
The moment he saw the designer watch, the man in the red vest decided that he would cover the cost of everything Lin Xue had chosen, and he would keep the watch for himself.
The convenience store owner must not find out.
The man in the red vest glanced in the direction of the surveillance camera. Fortunately, the camera was broken and hadn't been repaired yet.
After handing the items to Yu behind her, Lin Xue led the group out of the convenience store.
"Where do we go now?"
He could tell from the direction Lin Xue was walking that she wasn't heading back to her dormitory.
"Go to the back of the teaching building and get some materials!"
Now that she has free labor to accompany her, Lin Xue doesn't want to make herself suffer by going back to the dormitory.
After all, the dormitory nights are not peaceful.
Although they didn't understand what Lin Xue was going to get from behind the teaching building, the two of them quickly arrived at this deserted corner.
"Take this burlap sack and fill it with charcoal."
Since I've decided not to go back to the dorm tonight, I definitely need to find a place to spend the night.
Outside and in the classroom are both unacceptable; these places are too dangerous. If the head of discipline catches them, there will likely be a fierce fight.
He took the large sack of burlap from Lin Xue and obediently went to work.
Lin Xue then slipped into the cafeteria kitchen through the back door of the building next door.
At this hour, the cafeteria is bustling with activity, but no strange occurrences have been observed in the warehouse.
Lin Xue rummaged through the shelves and found a bloodstained axe, an iron barbecue grill, and a bowl of chicken wings, drumsticks, and hearts. Although these contained a small amount of contaminants, the amount would quickly dissipate once they were cooked.
[The Bloodstained Axe: This is an axe that has drunk its fill of blood, possessing powerful and eerie strength!]
After getting the items.
Lin Xue led You to the grove, where she flipped over the wall and pulled You up below.
"etc!"
"Wait for us."
Just as the two were about to climb over the wall, several human players suddenly rushed out from around a corner in the woods.
"Boss, please take us with you this time!"
From the moment Lin Xue took Yu He away from 102, many human players noticed the two of them.
Having confirmed Lin Xue's identity and seeing him unharmed while following a powerful figure who disregarded the rules, these people hiding in the shadows finally couldn't sit still any longer.
"Boss, I have a medium-level bizarre item here. If you're willing to take me with you, I'll give it to you!"
Seeing that Lin Xue was ignoring them, one of the blond-haired men quickly took out a prop from his backpack.
[Bloodstained Bracelet: Can summon powerful monsters to participate in battle, 3/5 uses remaining]
"Boss, I have one too!"
Seeing that Lin Xue had stopped trying to leave, another man with a slicked-back hairstyle immediately took out a pair of scissors.
[Bloodstained Scissors: Can be used for cutting, with certain bonuses! Can also be used as a weapon, effective against ordinary monsters.]
"Boss, we don't have any strange items right now, but if we do in the future, we can give them all to you. We won't take a single one!"
The others who couldn't offer anything also immediately started trying to curry favor with powerful figures.
"Host, this is just an ordinary contestant. Whether you save him or not is entirely up to you!"
Seeing that its host remained silent for a long time, 629 knew that the host was asking whether these people were useful.
"Come on up!"
As long as these people don't cause her trouble, it's fine to bring them along.
After all, in a world rife with strange occurrences, having her own people around makes it easier for her to command them.
Lin Xue led the group to an empty house, broke the lock with a bloodstained axe, and led them inside.
As soon as they entered, everyone felt a chill run straight to their hearts.
Lin Xue chopped the tree in the yard with the blood-stained axe, and the chill dissipated, returning everything to normal.
