Chapter 309 Magic Academy (12) - Earning Player Points
Ning Shucai realized they had misunderstood: "You have a total of 200."
The people on Sister Li's side were pleasantly surprised. It would be easy if there were 200 points in total; each of them only needed to contribute 40 points.
Seeing their reaction, Ning Shu felt they were celebrating too soon.
Everyone transferred their points to Sister Li, who then transferred them to Ning Shu. After receiving the points, Ning Shu spoke.
"Don't be so rigid."
Upon hearing this, the other party's face darkened. "You want to come up and cricket them first?"
Ning Shu was completely oblivious, happily continuing as she looked at the points balance on the panel:
Why do you insist on going to the future instead of going back to the past?
If only we could go back in time and find out exactly which mission involved five or more people and what the mission entailed.
If you know all this in advance, how could you possibly fail to complete the game? I just don't have those kinds of items, otherwise this wouldn't be a problem at all.
Sister Li and her group were stunned. It was indeed true. How come they hadn't thought of that?
Ning Shu wondered how they had managed to survive this long with their brains like that. Wouldn't it be impolite to ask directly?
Much later, Ning Shu accidentally learned the reason why Sister Li and the others could do this, and was instantly speechless.
There were still some quick-witted people in Sister Li's group. One of them, a boy named Li Feng, spoke up:
"However, even if we know the assessment content, we may not be able to be assigned this task."
We found that these tasks were initially assigned by the teachers, and the final decision was made by the principal.
Ning Shu agreed: "Then you can just bribe the principal."
Milk Dragon snorted, as if everyone knew that.
Sister Li explained, "We tried, but the principal didn't seem interested in anything we offered."
Ning Shu: "That's because you didn't give us the right thing. You need to treat the symptoms, you know?"
Milk Dragon snorted again.
Ning Shu couldn't take it anymore: "Are you a pig? You keep grunting."
Milk Dragon couldn't help but ask, "Treat the symptoms, but tell us, what exactly constitutes treating the symptoms?"
Ning Shu narrowed her eyes and gave them a peace sign: "I can tell you, 200 points."
Everyone: "..."
They wondered why she charged such a low price, implying she was just waiting for them there.
Seeing them preparing to transfer points to Sister Li, Ning Shu threw out another bait: "If I just tell you, it's 200 points; if I give you the item, it's 500 points."
Everyone: "..."
Li Jie and her colleagues were also struggling with how to choose.
After all, they didn't know if Ning Shu's information was really useful, let alone spend more points to buy her so-called "things".
Seeing that they had been discussing for a long time without reaching a conclusion, Ning Shu simply offered a solution: "Hey, seeing how conflicted you are, I'll give you a solution."
Sister Li and her group all looked at her, seemingly waiting for her to continue.
"You guys spend 200 points to buy the information first, then try your best. If you don't succeed, come back to me and spend the remaining 300 points to buy items."
"So, am I very kind?"
Everyone: "..."
If you're really being kind, can't you just give it away for free? Or give it away for half price?
Ning Shu glanced at their remaining points, which were more than enough to cover their expenses. They might be a little poor after they left, but at least she had left them some living expenses.
In the end, they accepted Ning Shu's second plan and bought information from her first.
Ning Shu was in a great mood after receiving another 200 points:
"The principal needs a herb called Anga grass; you can go and find it."
Once you find it, give it to the former headmaster and ask him to assign you the tasks you want.
This is indeed a good idea, but they are unsure if this herb is exactly what the principal needs.
Ning Shu left after she finished speaking. Believe it or not, she had earned the points anyway.
Because of Li Jie and the others' delay, Ning Shu was late for class again. Her attitude displeased Teacher Ai Wen, who gave her another lecture.
Ning Shu's attitude in admitting her mistakes was good, but she just wouldn't change. Teacher Ai Wen was very annoyed and simply pretended not to see it.
After finishing her afternoon classes, Ning Shu tried to call Si Zhong again, but she still couldn't reach him.
She wondered why he was so busy; could it be that he had run into trouble?
She suddenly felt that she might have Stockholm syndrome. Wouldn't it be great if she just got rid of it? Then she would be free.
On second thought, she realized she was overthinking things. Si Zhong was just like her; he was resurrected with his memories intact.
However, after being resurrected, he couldn't find her for a while, so she had more free time.
What if she levels up to C10 during this time, explores unknown areas, and leaves the game altogether? Wouldn't that mean they'd part ways forever?
He wanted to stay in the game, and she wanted to return to reality, so that they could both fulfill their wishes.
Ning Shu thought this was good, so she never called Si Zhong again.
Every day she practiced magic diligently, especially death spells, in preparation for her graduation exams, and worked even harder.
Two days later, Si Zhong actually returned and called her directly.
Ning Shu responded, her first words being, "I thought you died out there."
Surprisingly, Si Zhong wasn't angry: "I can't bear to part with you."
Ning Shu, recalling her previous plan, said smugly to Si Zhong:
"Si Zhong, I'm about to get a spot to take the graduation exam. If you ask me for a favor, I'll get you one too, how about it?"
"Beg me, beg me, beg me," Ning Shu thought to herself with secret smugness.
Si Zhong was secretly pleased that Ning Shu was still thinking of him.
However, he also saw through Ning Shu's little scheme to show off in front of him, and he was not going to be outdone.
"I was just about to tell you that I have successfully secured a graduation spot, and the graduation certificates will be issued at the same time after you have completed your assessments."
Ning Shu: !
How did you do that?
Si Zhong chuckled and said, "What do you think I've been busy with lately? Playing around?"
Ning Shu didn't know what he was doing, and she knew he wasn't just playing around, but she never expected him to get the pass directly.
Damn it, she rarely thought she was a level above him, but she didn't expect him to be already in the atmosphere.
Ahhhh—
Ning Shu transformed into a studious and inquisitive "baby": "How did you do that?"
Si Zhong chuckled: "You know the background of this instance, how could the royal family let go of a mage who can go directly to the battlefield without spending time and money to train him?"
I've carried out quite a few assassination missions for them lately, and I've completed them all successfully. They couldn't bear to let me not graduate.
So that's how it is! This guy's methods for completing missions are getting more and more bizarre.
Si Zhong continued, "I had originally prepared a graduation spot for you, but it seems you don't need it, so I'll take it back."
No way, who doesn't like getting something for nothing?
Just as Ning Shu was about to offer some advice, she heard Si Zhong say the next thing.
"But if you want it, I'll give it to you. After you get out, you can repay me properly."
