Chapter 173: Fellow Daoist, Please Wait!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
(Mission completed. Credits calculated. Please insert student card.)
Under the silent gaze of hundreds of people, Chen Yu took out his student card and inserted it into the machine.
(Identification successful.)
(Year 1 Class 2; Members Chen Yu, Duan Ye, and Bahuang Yao.)
(Obtained 1,000 credits...)
It was as if a switch had been triggered.
In the quiet hall, the next second after this number was played, it instantly exploded.
“F*ck!”
“Wadafock?”
“1,000 credits! It’s really an A-Rank mission...”
“I’ve never seen them before. Are they freshmen?”
“They’ve just entered the school, and they’ve already completed an A-Rank...”
“Three of them! They’re from the elite class.”
“Poor me! I’m already a junior, and I’ve only completed a B-Rank at most. F*ck!”
“As expected! In any group, newbies are the scariest...”
The discussion around them grew louder and louder.
The air in the entire hall was filled with a sour atmosphere.
Bahuang Yao lowered her head and used her long red hair to cover her face.
Duan Ye, on the other hand, had his nostrils facing the sky. He turned around and around on the spot, afraid that someone had not seen his ‘handsome’ face clearly.
“Let’s go.”
Pulling back his student card, Chen Yu swept his gaze across the scene, only to hear a series of electronic synthesized voices.
[Envied: Confidence +3; Luck +2; Charm +6]
[Envied: Confidence +5; Temperament +7... ]
“Eh?”
Hearing this, Chen Yu was slightly stunned.
A moment later, he decisively poked Duan Ye beside him and said loudly, “It’s just a small A-Rank mission. What’s there to be surprised about?”
Duan Ye also nodded decisively. “Yes, yes, it’s very strange.”
Bahuang Yao:”...”
“...”
The hall was silent once again.
[Envied: Confidence +11; Luck +8; Temperament +6]
[Charm +12; Same-Sex Affinity +9; Opposite-Sex Affinity +5]
[Aura +13; Charm +10...]
Chen Yu’s eyes lit up, and he spoke even louder. “This is probably because they haven’t seen the world yet. We should understand. After all, not everyone has strength.”
Duan Ye: “That’s right, that’s right. Put yourself in their shoes. Many people just complete a D-Rank mission and go all out.”
Bahuang Yao’s ears were red. She slowly squatted down and buried her head deep into her abdomen...
Everyone: “...”
[Strong jealousy and rejection!]
[Self-Confidence +18 +16 +16; Luck +10 +9; Charm +20 +24 +18; Temperament +18 +17; Appeal +17...]
Feeling the indescribable changes in his body, Chen Yu was extremely happy. He wanted to continue speaking, but someone tugged at his pants.
He nodded and saw that it was Bahuang Yao.
Her small hands were red as she gripped Chen Yu’s pants tightly. Her voice was like fine lines. “Let’s go... Let’s go... Stop talking...”
At this moment, some of the students in the crowd silently took out their weapons...
“Emmmm... Then, let’s go. I’ll listen to you.”
He pulled Bahuang Yao up and kicked Duan Ye, who was still waiting to be a supporting character. Chen Yu and the other two circled around the crowd and left quickly against the wall.
After walking out of the hall, Duan Ye looked back and said, “Why are you walking so fast? Let’s continue talking for a while more. It’s so exciting!”
Chen Yu lifted Bahuang Yao in his hand and said, “If we continue talking for a while more, she will be familiar with you.”
Bahuang Yao said, “You... you guys are too ostentatious.”
“If you don’t, then are you called a young man?” Duan Ye curled his lips. “Never believe in the doctrine of the mean. If you want to do it, then be the prettiest boy on the street. Do you know why Brother Yu and I are the top scorers, but you aren’t? It’s because you don’t have this kind of lofty consciousness.”
Clap clap clap clap...
The sudden applause came from behind.
The three people from Class 2 turned around when they heard the sound. When they saw who it was, Chen Yu and Duan Ye were stunned.
It was actually Zhang Yanyan...
“What you said makes sense.” Zhang Yanyan walked in front of Duan Ye and tilted her head. “But I’m also the top scorer. Why am I not as wild as you guys?”
Chen Yu: “Eh, I know this person.”
Duan Ye: “Yes, I know her too.”
Chen Yu: “But what’s her name again?”
Duan Ye: “Hiss... It’s right beside my ear. I can’t remember what it is...”
“...” After a moment of silence, Zhang Yanyan said, “Zhang Yanyan, Zhang Yanyan, Zhang Yanyan!”
“Oh, right.” Duan Ye suddenly understood. “Her name is Zhang Yanyan. It’s not my fault for not remembering it. Brother Yu, listen to this name. She won’t survive more than three scenes in a TV series.”
Chen Yu nodded. “That’s right. Just listening to her name is enough.”
Bahuang Yao: “...”
Zhang Yanyan was expressionless. “It’s an old joke. Don’t bring it up again.”
“Good afternoon.” Chen Yu took the initiative to reach out and shake Zhang Yanyan’s hand. “How have you been recently? I haven’t seen you for a long time. Have you been expelled?”
“...Thanks to you, I’ve been doing well recently.” Zhang Yanyan turned sideways, revealing a man and a woman behind her. “I’ve been assigned to Class 4. These two are my teammates. Let me introduce them to you.”
Chen Yu was surprised. “D*mn, there are still two of them?”
Duan Ye was surprised. “Their presence is too low.”
The two of them: “...”
Finally, Bahuang Yao could not take it anymore. She braced herself and took over the initiative. She stood in front of Chen Yu and Duan Ye and bowed slightly. “Hello, I’m... I’m Chen Yu and Duan Ye’s teammates. My name is Bahuang Yao. Nice to... meet you.”
“What a pretty little sister.” Zhang Yanyan’s eyes lit up. “How did she end up in the den of thieves?”
Chen Yu lowered his voice and whispered into Duan Ye’s ear, “She said that we’re thieves.”
Duan Ye also lowered his voice and replied, “It’s not very appropriate. She can’t read people correctly...”
“...” Bahuang Yao tried hard to block the ‘noise’ behind her. She forced a smile. “We were just assigned together. It’s Class 2.”
“Okay.” Zhang Yanyan nodded. “Since they can be assigned to the same class, they can be considered to be lovers.”
Chen Yu, who was whispering to each other, was suddenly stunned. “?”
Duan Ye was also at a loss. “??”
“Come, let me introduce you.” Zhang Yanyan pointed at the boy on the left behind her and said, “This is * *, a Qi martial arts major.”
She paused for a moment before pointing at the girl on the right. “This is * *, a physical martial arts major.”
Duan Ye said, “Wow, they’re both cameos.”
Chen Yu said, “They’re the same as Zhang Yanyan. It’s not easy to remember them...”
Class 4: “...”
Crack–
Zhang Yanyan clenched her fists so tightly that they made a crisp sound. Her face was filled with black lines. “Did the two of you do it on purpose?”
“Stop saying that it’s useless.” Chen Yu moved away from Bahuang Yao and said seriously, “You’re looking for us because you have something to do, right?”
“Can’t we greet you if we have nothing to do?”
“Then the greeting is over. We have to leave.” Chen Yu waved his hand. “Goodbye.”
“Wait... wait a minute!”
Seeing that Chen Yu was about to leave, Zhang Yanyan hurriedly said, “Alright, I do have something to look for you guys.”
“Speak.”
Zhang Yanyan and her teammates looked at each other and said, “You guys just completed a... Hmm, an A-Rank mission, right?”
“That’s right.” Chen Yu nodded.
“1,000 credits?” Zhang Yanyan tentatively stretched out a finger.
“That’s right.” Chen Yu nodded.
“This is just the beginning of school. 1,000 credits... You guys can’t spend it, right?”
“That’s right.” Chen Yu nodded.
“Then...” Zhang Yanyan blinked. “Can you lend us a little?”
“No.”
Zhang Yanyan: “...”
“Is there anything else?”
“You guys have 1,000 credits! You can’t use them all anyway. Can you lend us some and help each other out?”
“No.”
“We’re all classmates. We really need a sum of points to buy some martial arts skills because the missions are more difficult, and the security officers are only responsible for protecting us...” Zhang Yanyan looked at Bahuang Yao, cupped her hands, and said pitifully, “Help me out.”
“Oh.” Bahuang Yao looked at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu looked at the ceiling.
Although he had some friendship with Zhang Yanyan, it was not easy for the entire class to earn credits. Even if he could not use them now, he had to save them in the future. How could he lend them to someone else?
Moreover, with the class’s points, what right did he have to make the decision on behalf of his two teammates?
“...”
“...”
The scene was in a stalemate for a long time.
The male student from Class 4, whose name was * *, tugged at Zhang Yanyan. “Let’s go. Borrowing is benevolence, not borrowing is not their duty. If your friend isn’t willing to lend, then don’t waste their time.”
“That’s right. Yanyan, let’s go.”
“...” Zhang Yanyan bit her lip, sighed, and turned to leave. “Sorry to disturb you guys.”
“Chen Yu...” Bahuang Yao tugged at Chen Yu’s clothes. “Do you want to lend some?”
“You’re still too young.” Chen Yu patted the girl’s head. “They’re so pitiful when they borrow money, and so hateful when they don’t return it. I can lend money if she wants to, but lending credits is just a waste of time...”
Before he could finish speaking, he knocked on his head and seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He immediately shouted, “Fellow Daoists! Please wait!”
