Chapter 26 A Surprise
[Haitang]: Good morning, everyone! [Sun]
At seven o'clock in the morning, a new day begins by waking up and greeting my group friends.
Lin Guantang originally wanted to send a private message to Huo Shizhen to say good morning, but after waking up, he looked at the private message page and saw that the other party had not replied to his message all night, so he hesitated.
Although Senior Huo was magnanimous and clearly didn't want to bother with me, he still tolerated my meaningless greetings. However, if I couldn't read the atmosphere, it would be a bit rude to send a private message to him.
After all - whether it was his own physical feeling or the reminder from Senior Sikong last night, Lin Guantang confirmed that Senior Huo was a good person who could provide a backup.
If something happens to me in the future, I might have to ask him for help, so it's better to talk less nonsense in daily life, so as not to say too much and make Senior Huo develop the habit of not reading out of boredom. It would be bad if he was habitually ignored when he really encountered trouble and needed help.
So after much thought, Lin Guantang decided to greet everyone in the group.
Lin Guantang felt that he was a really clever little genius, as he could let Senior Huo see that he really got up early every day without disturbing him.
Although his worries were completely unnecessary.
After all, there are quite a lot of people who send all kinds of garbage to Huo Shizhen every day. He has long been accustomed to ignoring those useless greetings and will not miss any useful information. It is like a precision instrument that filters out junk content and retains useful information. It is just a basic function.
He saw the message Lin Guantang sent in the group, but had no intention of replying. He just kept his eyes on it for a few seconds, then looked away as if nothing had happened and continued to deal with the unfinished business. After thinking about it, he sent a message to everyone in the Discipline Department, asking them to gather in the conference room in ten minutes, and to divide into groups and go to each department to check attendance in twenty minutes. The military training for freshmen was also not left out.
Omegas can get up so early to exercise, so as an alpha, there is no reason why he should not be as energetic and diligent as an omega, right?
That's the truth, but... who would be a good person and check attendance on the first day of school?
This is a show of force, it must be a show of force, right?
Just like the emperor’s ascension to the throne had to be announced to the world, the arrival of the great devil Huo in the discipline department had to be announced to the whole school.
After receiving the attendance check news, various wails were heard in unison from all the departments of the Central Military Academy, complaining bitterly that the big devil was indeed the big devil, and he was still as cruel as before even though he had changed departments.
It's just that in the past, as the boss of the Executive Department, only the members of the Executive Department were under his control. When he needed cooperation, he would briefly let the students in other departments experience the tyranny of the swift and decisiveness. Now that he has switched to the Discipline Department, he can directly and comprehensively bully the entire school (not really).
Fortunately, the news that the Big Devil would be going on a mission in another place in about a week was no longer a secret. So after wailing, all the cadets sincerely prayed that the day when the Big Devil would leave the school in a week would come as soon as possible, so that they could respectfully send the respected tyrant away from his "loyal" land and go to harm the people in other areas.
Lin Guantang certainly didn't know that his casual words had caused a crisis in the military academy students' attendance. After sending the message, he threw the terminal aside, got up, washed, and dressed, with a happy smile on his face.
His worries yesterday were promptly appeased, and today was the official start of school, so he slept very well. His long-awaited college life officially kicked off today, so of course he was happy.
Unfortunately, other people in the group don’t have such a good attitude as him.
I was just pulled back to the Central Military Academy from the training camp overnight yesterday, and today I have to start normal military training with other ordinary military academy students - I really want to die.
So the tone of replying to Haitang's greeting became weaker and weaker, and they just said a simple "Good morning" and ended it.
——Although no emotions can be seen from the simple text, compared with the past when they always showed up in the group and talked nonsense, it can be seen that everyone is now lacking energy.
At this time, someone is needed to mobilize emotions.
[Wen Tiange]: Hey, did you guys hear that at the O College freshman party yesterday, there was a freshman who performed and was so beautiful that it was said that the whole O College was blown away.
[Jian Yinglai]: Is it strange? Based on past experience, O College has this kind of thing every year. At freshman parties, school celebrations, and New Year's celebrations, there will always be rumors about who is as beautiful as a fairy. O College relies on this appearance to promote itself, otherwise it would be useless.
Shao Qingbai: Did you learn your sharp tongue from Huo Lao University? But the O Institute has been in good condition after so many years of bombing, so it seems to be suitable for Tian Ye.
[Tian Ye]: Thank you for the invitation. I study physical explosives, and mental explosions are beyond my control.
[Wen Tiange]: You guys really don’t have the spirit of gossip. Shouldn’t you be enthusiastically discussing who this beautiful new student is at this time?
[Jian Yinglai]:: What is there to discuss? It's just Tao Tianshi, a freshman of this year's O College. She has been on the hot searches for a long time. You are from the Intelligence Department, how could you not even know this kind of news?
[Tian Ye]: I know Tian Shi Tao. My sister said that she seems to be a top star in the entertainment industry. If that is true, then it would be okay to describe her as stunningly beautiful. I often hear my sister say that.
[Wen Tiange]: That’s not the case, maybe it’s just makeup.
Wen Tiange and Tao Tianshi are cousins. They grew up playing together. Wen Tiange is automatically immune to Tao Tianshi's appearance and does not think that this person's appearance is amazing - that's why he is curious about who the freshman was at the O College Freshman Party yesterday!
He was sure that the person was definitely not Tao Tianshi, but with the attention Tao Tianshi received, there was actually someone who could surpass her popularity and make the O Academy praise her beauty. How could this person, a member of the intelligence department, not be extremely curious?
But they came back too late yesterday and fell asleep immediately. They only got some news from other people's discussions when they woke up in the morning. Although they could also go to the forum or other places to find detailed information, the attendance time is approaching. Even if they want to look for it in detail, they can only wait until the break.
By the time Lin Guantang packed up his things and took his terminal to prepare to go out, no one had spoken in the group for several minutes.
Ah this - it feels a bit weird to suddenly say at this time that the subject of discussion may, probably, should be myself.
Lin Guantang hesitated for a while, but decided to pretend that he didn't see it. If people asked him later why he didn't say it clearly, then... then he would just apologize.
Lin Guantang has extensive experience in apologizing, and even more extensive experience in being 100% forgiven after apologizing.
After all, up to now, no one has been able to face his pitiful and apologetic expression and say no.
After going out for a half-hour run, he went to the cafeteria which was finally open to eat. There were few people along the way. Even when Lin Guantang arrived at the classroom, there were only a dozen or so classmates. It was not until the class started that more than twenty people were sitting scattered in the classroom.
Twenty minutes into the lecture, half of the students were already asleep, the other half were busy browsing their terminals, and some were chatting in low voices - how relaxed they were!
This is the first class for freshmen. Lin Guantang looks around and feels that the so-called college life is not what he imagined, but it is consistent with the rumors on the Internet about the overly relaxed environment of O College.
Even the teacher seemed to be accustomed to this. The so-called lecture was just reading from the PPT stick, and he didn't even look up at the students during the whole process.
Lin Guantang listened carefully for half an hour, and then... with a guilty feeling, he opened the terminal and started playing games.
It’s not that he didn’t want to learn, but the content the teacher taught was exactly the same as what was described in the textbook. Lin Guantang had previewed the course content in advance, and he even felt that he could give the lecture on the stage.
And they will be more emotional than the teacher, at least their tone will have ups and downs.
But this is absolutely nothing to brag about!
Lin Guantang, feeling sad about how easily he had fallen, opened the game and started the sixth level.
[Objective of this level: Basic skills field assessment. Please confirm that you are familiar with 30 common crisis response methods during the susceptible period/estrus period. After confirmation, a random task will be sent.]
Lin Guantang: ...
What is this?
Aren’t the three options: “find a spouse if you have one, take suppressants if you don’t have one, and just tough it out if that doesn’t work”… How can there be thirty ways to deal with it!
Lin Guantang couldn't think of any other methods no matter how hard he tried. Even if he searched online, he only got these answers. At most, he could add some cold showers or something, but that still wouldn't make up the total of thirty methods.
Lin Guantang had no choice but to seek help off-site.
Originally, he wanted to ask Senior Sikong directly among his game friends based on the principle of proximity, but the other party was not online and did not respond to private chat, so Lin Guantang could only ask in the group.
In a moment, Wen Tiange sent a list of [Thirty Common Crisis Response Methods During Susceptible/Estrous Periods] to the group.
Then I asked him if he was playing games.
Lin Guantang replied yes, and Wen Tiange sent an emoticon pack saying "I wish you good luck".
It's just a game, why wish you good luck? Is it because this level is difficult to pass?
Lin Guantang didn't care too much about this. After reading the contents of the file, he was amazed that there were so many emergency methods, and then he clicked confirm in the game.
Then the game interface got stuck.
Just when Lin Guantang was about to exit and refresh, the game interface changed. Unlike the previous five levels, no scene appeared, but a letter.
【Four o'clock in the morning classmate:
Based on your outstanding performance in the first five levels, this level will give you the following tasks:
Please go to [Chaoxi Mansion near Zhuque Avenue in the Imperial Capital] within three days to contact [Jiang Youhao], a person with an abnormal pheromone imbalance, to collect his pheromone samples and take photos for preservation. Submitting the samples will be considered mission completed and you will receive [5] credits. If you fail to complete the task within the deadline, it will be considered a mission failure and [3] credits will be deducted.
I wish you successful completion of the task and start the next level.
Note: This task starts from the moment you click to confirm receipt. If you do not confirm receipt within five minutes after the task is issued, it will be deemed invalid and the task will be restarted. Credits will not be deducted for invalidated tasks, but if the task is invalidated three times, you will be banned from the game for 72 hours.
——Sincerely, Intelligence Department]
Lin Guantang didn't think too much and just clicked confirm, and that was it.
The game interface was empty, with nothing else displayed except a countdown and a task submission button.
Even if he exited and re-entered several times, it was still the same. The only thing that changed was the countdown. Wait - why did the countdown time seem to be consistent with the flow of real time?
Lin Guantang suddenly had a bad feeling.
Fifteen minutes later, the bad premonition came true.
Senior Sikong responded to his private message.
Senior Sikong: You've already reached level six? I forgot to tell you, starting from level six, every five levels will have a real-life mission. So, if you want to complete the mission, go to the designated location and complete it within three days.
[Senior Sikong]: Don't worry. This is your first mission, and you don't have any preparation or experience. I happen to be free now and can help you. I can also bring the props you need and assist you throughout the whole process. Let's set off now without further ado. O Hospital is only twenty minutes away from Chaoxi Mansion. We will see you in an hour. I have something else to tell you.
[Senior Sikong]: By the way, don’t tell anyone else. This is a special privilege for you. Others will act alone even if it is their first mission, and no additional help will be provided.
Lin Guantang: ...
Thank you for your good intentions and careful care - this is not the point!
Lin Guantang put down the terminal and looked ahead with lifeless eyes.
It was difficult for him to describe how he felt right now, but he felt completely lost.
Wasn't he playing a game? How did he get a mission related to real life out of nowhere?
