Cen Yu didn't care how the rat died; he could predict the fate of the group in the tower.
Wang Ke said from the beginning that the dean of students hates bad students and people who don't follow school rules. It would be strange if those people in the tower didn't get killed while they were in the cafeteria during evening self-study time.
He looked at the scarred man. "You were in the cafeteria too." How come you're alright?
Scarface understood Cen Yu's implication: "I was wearing a school uniform and I actively admitted my mistake."
Since it was his first time, Teacher Lin let him off the hook, but told him not to break the school rules again.
“I’ve never been to such a bizarre dungeon before,” Scarface said. Before entering the tower, he had been adventuring in the wilderness and had naturally been to many dungeons, including regular dungeons in the numbered areas and wild dungeons that a few hunters entered sporadically—most of the dungeons had very simple rules.
Once inside, you're immediately greeted with thrilling and exciting scenes; defeating all the enemies in the dungeon counts as clearing the level.
But the dungeon in front of us is strange in every way. If it weren't for Teacher Lin's sudden killing spree and the strange noises outside the dormitory last night, everything would look like an ordinary campus before the apocalypse.
Even after he returned to his class, he found that his classmates were all very real, so real that they didn't seem like NPCs.
After discovering that Scarface genuinely didn't know about the Green Mountain Middle School instance, Cen Yu thought for a few seconds before explaining the instance's difficulty to him.
"You mean, this instance used to be normal, but one day the difficulty suddenly increased, and no one has left since?" Scarface asked.
He glanced at Cen Yu, "How's the collaboration going?"
He then extended a collaboration invitation... Seeing that Cen Yu and He Yuxing were inseparable, he scratched the back of his head and said, "I promise I won't make a move on your little boyfriend after we get out."
"We have supplies over there; you can take the extras."
“You all died in the dungeon, those things were originally ours.” Cen Yu wasn’t buying it.
Scarface was about to curse when he heard this, but seeing Cen Yu's confident look, he hesitated for a moment and asked Cen Yu, "Then what do you suggest?"
“Props,” Cen Yu said. “When you left the tower, you must have taken some props or other weapons with you.”
"I want that one."
The wilderness is full of unknown surprises, and some magical items will appear in the dungeons—that's exactly what Cen Yu wants.
“No,” Scarface said immediately.
"Never mind then." Cen Yu turned around.
Scarface frowned again. Seeing how confident Cen Yu was, and considering that his own props weren't particularly valuable—he had left the valuable ones inside the tower—he said to Cen Yu, "But I only brought one prop."
"At the time, I was thinking about how many people were there..."
Cen Yu reached out his hand. "Take a look."
Scarface took out a prop and showed it to Cen Yu.
[Stupidity Spray: After spraying, the other person will become stupid within 10 minutes, their thinking will be disordered, they will wave their arms and legs wildly, and they will trip over their own feet. It is vicious but effective.]
Cen Yu: "..."
"This is all I have. Take it or leave it." Scarface stuffed the item into his pocket. "I got this from a dungeon."
Although he hadn't figured out how to use the prop yet, Cen Yu still felt that he might as well take it, so before leaving the cafeteria, he and Scarface formed a temporary alliance and exchanged some basic information.
Scarface mentioned the news on TV in the cafeteria last night.
Cen Yu then spoke of the agreement behind the dormitory door—
“We don’t have that in our dorm,” Scarface said. “There are no such agreements.”
"Did you hear any noises in the hallway last night?" Cen Yu asked.
"I heard you."
"You didn't open the door."
“Nonsense,” Scarface said. “It’s late at night…this dungeon is weird, who would open the door? Besides, aren’t all my roommates dead?”
His roommates were the same group of people inside the tower. He had watched them turn into pretzel-like creatures right in front of him, so how could he possibly open the door after hearing them knock?
“That’s strange,” Cen Yu said.
Why are these precautions only found in their dorm room?
For example, should we be united and friendly, and not tell the truth to the teacher in the green shirt?
After the two parted ways in the cafeteria, Cen Yu was still pondering this question while carrying a steamed bun in one hand... When the two arrived at the classroom, Cen Yu discovered that He Yuxing's book had been thrown away this time.
Cen Yu: "?"
He Yuxing's homework was thrown on the ground, covered with shoe prints. Judging from the shoe prints, there was probably more than one person who committed the crime.
He Yuxing was about to walk over and pick up the homework when Cen Yu pushed her away.
Cen Yu walked past him, picked up the dirty homework, and strode to the podium.
He tapped the podium a few times, then picked up the dirty homework... The people sitting in the front row naturally noticed Cen Yu's actions, and the noisy classroom quieted down.
Cen Yu shook the homework in her hand a few times, "Who did this?"
The students in the classroom stared at each other in silence until someone in the back row spoke up.
Why do you care about him?
"He loves to lie, didn't you know?"
"Maybe he stepped on it himself?" Several people laughed and teased.
Cen Yu glanced at the people who were making a fuss, and then suddenly laughed, "It's okay, I have time anyway."
“There are footprints on this homework too.” He said, striding to the back of the classroom and standing in front of the person who was laughing the loudest. “Excuse me, can I take a look at the soles of your shoes?”
The man immediately stopped laughing.
He looked up at Cen Yu, "You insist on standing up for him, right?"
"There's nothing I can do." Cen Yu threw the homework at the person. "It's because I'm a good friend and I can't stand seeing others bully my classmates."
"Damn it!" the man said, and started to stand up.
Just as a fight seemed imminent in the classroom… Teacher Lin walked in through the front door, “What are you doing?”
Upon seeing that it was the Dean of Students, and noticing the books in his hands, Cen Yu guessed that the man was still a substitute teacher at Qingshan Middle School. "Reporting, teacher!" Cen Yu raised his hand again.
"They bullied He Yuxing and ruined her homework."
Probably not expecting Cen Yu to directly complain, these people opened their mouths, wanting to refute something, but in the end, because they were in the wrong, they didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Teacher Lin had a pretty good idea of the truth. He looked at the group of people and said, "Come out with me."
Then he said to Cen Yu, "Go back to your seat and sit down."
Cen Yu then went back to sit down. He Yuxing sat beside him, watching him quietly. After a while, He Yuxing whispered, "Thank you."
"You're welcome," Cen Yu said, propping his head up with his hand. "I can't stand people bullying the weak."
