Chapter 255 Campus Life is Good

Leon wrote some words on the blackboard, and the students in the classroom began to study them.

Specifically, it describes what level and ability value are available, and how deep into the floors one can explore.

Because the students in the school district lack sufficient experience, and because the teachers in the school district are concerned about student safety, their floor recommendations are much stricter than those given to adventurers by the guild.

For example, it is recommended that Lv1 beginners in the school district only reach the fifth level, while Lv1 advanced players can only explore up to the ninth level.

Starting from the tenth floor, only teams composed of Lv2 members are allowed, and the maximum exploration distance is the fifteenth floor.

The standard criteria for guild ability values ​​are as follows:

For novice adventurers at level 1, it is only recommended to attempt floors one through seven.

Recommended EC stats for dungeon levels 8-10; minimum Lv2 required to explore level 13.
In addition, the guild has designated the 24th floor as the death line for Lv2 adventurers! That is, before reaching Lv3, the death rate for going to the 24th floor will increase dramatically to the limit.

Through comparison, Liang Yue discovered that Leon was being a bit too protective of the students.

This is quite normal, though, as the students in the district lack practical experience. They are simply good at studying and improving their skills.

However, the ability to fight for life and death, to transform the unknown into the known and into one's own power, is the mark of an adventurer's maturity.

Leon waited a short while on the podium to make sure the students had read everything on the blackboard before speaking again:

"During the internship, there will be teachers stationed on almost every floor. However, there is still a possibility that some teachers will not be able to provide timely support."

Therefore, everyone must be careful when exploring dungeons.

The students looked at each other, none of them over eighteen years old, meaning they were in their adolescence.

This first real-world experience was full of unknowns for the students, so they were all filled with anticipation.

The special internship starts in three days, and Liang Yue plans to use these three days to enrich herself as much as possible.

“Abnormal situations may occur in the dungeon, and in addition to fighting monsters, you may also get into disputes with adventurers, which could lead to being ambushed and facing a life-or-death crisis.”

The students fell completely silent; not one dared to be careless about something that could lead to death.

"Although you have already conducted field surveys and combat missions, and have many Lv2 levels, it is wrong to remain arrogant and think that dungeons are nothing special."

If something truly goes wrong, then I, as your teacher, will have no choice but to collect your bodies.

So the students in the school district had already hunted monsters before? It seems that's why they advanced to Lv2.

Ability stats can be improved through practice, while level advancement can only be achieved by completing great deeds.

Therefore, breakthroughs in actual combat are more likely to lead to upgrades.

Then came the detailed schedule and regulations for the dungeon internship, which Liang Yue carefully reviewed.

"Now that a new partner is joining, let's all listen to his opinion?"

Gig, after hearing what I said about the dungeons, what are your thoughts?
It's important to voice your opinions in the school district. Being right or wrong isn't important; what matters is identifying problems and finding solutions, either independently or together with others.

Liang Yue stood up. "Adventurers shouldn't take risks, especially novice adventurers."

The mark of an adventurer's maturity lies in their ability to transform the unknown into the known and convert it into their own power.

In addition, adventurers will eventually embark on adventures that will cost them their lives.

And they fight in desperate, life-or-death situations, either dying or breaking through to the next level.

The other students stared blankly at Liang Yue, completely unexpected that he could say such mature words.

"I have personally witnessed the horrific tragedy of numerous adventurers being slaughtered by monsters, so everyone must be extremely cautious when exploring dungeons."

Adventurers will eventually face their adventures, not simply die without a plan…

The students couldn't help but stare at Liang Yue's mechanical prosthetic left arm, as they all believed that Liang Yue had experienced a profound life-or-death crisis.

However, no one actively exposed Liang Yue's past; instead, they were all deeply shocked by the future Liang Yue described.

Nina then led the applause, and the other students followed suit.

Liang Yue's words were more brutal and bloody than those of Teacher Leon, and they revealed bloody facts that the school district had never told before.

An adventurer's life is dancing on the edge of a knife, flirting with death, and achieving breakthroughs and advancements amidst countless dangers.

Chased by the scythe of death, constantly facing high pressure and fatigue, and miraculously escaping death in countless unexpected situations.

"It seems that Giger has also experienced a lot of complicated things before."

"Do I feel like I'm the only one who's never seen the world before? That's so embarrassing."

"No matter how dangerous it is, I will become strong!"

The students whispered among themselves, and some of the bolder ones stared intently at Liang Yue, as if they could figure out what kind of person she was just by looking at her.

Leon waved for the students to be quiet, then looked at Liang Yue: "Gig, your comments were very insightful. It seems you are quite familiar with the lives of adventurers."

Liang Yue nodded, "I have fought monsters in person and experienced the life of adventurers."

Although he was telling the truth, his words were interpreted differently by his classmates.

That was Giger, who once hunted monsters himself without ever receiving divine favor.

He even teamed up with adventurers to participate in monster hunts.

In an instant, the students in the combat technology department changed their impression of Liang Yue, from the legendary handsome dark elf to a powerful figure who had killed monsters without ever receiving any favors.

Leon asked Liang Yue to sit down on the platform, and then he explained again: "In the dungeon, caution is the best way to preserve yourself."

Never take unnecessary risks, and never misjudge the timing of retreat; this mindset is extremely important.

Liang Yue added in his mind that when he first started his adventure, his main focus was on improving his template level.

Therefore, he uses hunting monsters as the main way to improve his template level and ability value.

Even at that time, he did not actively participate in any extremely high-intensity monster battles.

Because his strength can also be increased through template upgrades in the dungeon, he works harder.

Without the template's support, he would naturally fight even more cautiously. And he would only fight desperately when his level was about to advance, in order to break through his limits.

He just wanted to get stronger, not to die. A gradual, step-by-step approach to conquering the dungeon is crucial.

Leon glanced at his pocket watch. "It's almost time. Nina, could you show Gigg around the campus later?"

"it is good."

"Jig, remember to come to this classroom to meet the teacher after school!"

"Yes!"

It seems that Leon still has some things to say at that time.

After class, Leon walked out of the classroom.

Liang Yue looked around at the many students in the classroom, unsure how many he could recruit.

In short, it's always good to build good relationships with these students.

The students did not leave the classroom immediately afterward, presumably because there were more classes to follow.

During this break, everyone else gathered around Liang Yue, their eyes filled with curiosity as they looked at her.

"Excuse me, what did you do before you came here?"

"I have been practicing swordsmanship in Bela City."

"What about the levels?"

“Lv1, I hadn’t received any blessings before arriving at the school district. Although I’ve killed monsters, it was all by chance.” The students’ opinions of Liang Yue had changed. “Hunting monsters without blessings? Isn’t that a bit too much?”

"Exactly! Even the weakest monster is still stronger than an ordinary human, right?"

"What's so great about him? Look at this guy, he lost an arm fighting a monster. Hunting monsters without divine favor is just courting death, isn't it?"

The voice came from several meters away from Liang Yue; it belonged to a short, stocky dwarf with a rose brooch on his chest.

Nina jumped to her feet and glared at him. "Iglin! Mocking someone's body is extremely rude!"

Iglin crossed his arms. "You're about to start your internship, and you're only at Lv1, and you're still so skinny."

I really hope he won't hold us back.

This handsome young man with a full beard has a sharp tongue and is quite short.

This was the first time he'd ever seen someone so different in speech, behavior, and race. It was truly an eye-opening experience.

Liang Yue sized up Iglin, "Your name is Iglin, right? If your strength doesn't surpass the mundane, you'll suffer greatly in the future."

Currently, there are multiple Lv6 and Lv7 characters in Orario. Imagine the consequences if you were rude to them?

"Hmph! I can't be bothered to explain to you."

Iglin's response was clearly lacking in confidence, and he left the classroom hastily as if he had suffered a defeat.

Liang Yue stopped paying attention to Iglin and glanced at Nina: "Excuse me, are you free now?"

"Convenient! Let's go!"

Nina smiled and nodded.

The two then left the classroom and strolled around the outdoor corridor.

"The school district is quite large. How about we mainly explore the academic floors today?"

Liang Yue nodded.

The structure of the entire school district is somewhat like an Eastern sundial, with two pairs of wings at the back.

A sundial is shaped like a disc with a gnomon inserted on it.

In different locations, the sundial has different angles of inclination relative to the ground.

Then, the time changes are observed by the position of the gnomon's shadow on the sundial's scale—the gnomon face.

According to Nina's explanation, the school district is divided into three levels. From top to bottom, they are the school level, the residential level, and the control level.

This school district structure, consisting of three giant discs stacked together, has many large magic stone devices mounted on its bottom layer.

For example, the elevators in the Tower of Babel also use buoyancy-generating devices, and the school district has the same equipment.

In addition, the control layer also includes the ship's core machinery room and "research room".

The middle floors are where teachers and students live, which needs no further explanation.

Liang Yue just had something to complain about.

The lighting conditions in the middle layer are obviously not as good as those in the upper layer, so the upper layer should be made a little more crowded.

Then the dormitory building should also be located on the upper floor.

However, Liang Yue guessed that the residential area was placed on the middle floor for security reasons.

The rest area is located in the center of the building, and any enemy that wants to get close must first break through the top floor of the school district.

In addition, Liang Yue had previously seen facilities that resembled a gladiatorial arena.

They might conduct a real-world test; if the dormitories were also located on this floor, security would indeed be affected.

Furthermore, Liang Yue speculated that in addition to the detection barrier, the entire school district should also have a protective barrier, but it consumes a lot of energy and is only activated in emergency situations.

"The last floor is the academy floor, which consists of many teaching buildings and training grounds and other teaching facilities."

Including the aircrew, the total number of people on board exceeded ten thousand…

If it weren't for considerations of comfort, the number of people living on this ship could easily exceed 50,000 or even 100,000.

However, the thought of increasing the crowding on a ship by five to ten times gave him a headache.

He also recalled that when he was in school, there were more than seventy students in one classroom.

For example, Liang Yue's previous class could have at least another two hundred people!

"If you want some fresh air, the park at the stern of the ship is quite nice."

As Liang Yue and Nina continued to stroll around the academy floor, three demi-human girls approached.

"Nina, is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome."

"He's not my boyfriend!"

Nina's pretty face immediately turned red, and she anxiously explained to them.

After saying goodbye to the girls, Liang Yue and her companion arrived at a certain street.

As mentioned before, the entire school district has a diameter of over one kilometer. Therefore, the school grounds alone are very spacious.

The street Liang Yue and her group arrived at had a distinctly commercial atmosphere. To be precise, the entire street was lined with numerous shops.

Are all the people in this store students?

"Yes, business students can open a shop here after they have earned a certain number of credits and obtained the necessary qualifications."

"Can students who aren't from the business department also apply?"

"Yes, as long as you can ensure that your studies are not affected. You just need to pass the assessment to obtain the business license."

Indeed, the school district doesn't have that rigid teaching model. It has a very relaxed and advanced teaching philosophy.

Unlike learning purely from books, this simulation is more conducive to students' independent life after leaving the school district.

The combat skills department's internship involves going to the dungeon for training, while the business department's internship involves opening a shop here, and perhaps the other subjects are similar.

"Because the number of shops is limited, freshmen usually work under the guidance of senior students until a shop becomes available."

Then the shops will be ranked according to their sales revenue, and the gods will provide prizes as encouragement.

Because it's still during school hours, there aren't many shops open on this street.

However, Liang Yue did find a very familiar stall.

French fries!
"Gig, this is a rare opportunity, let's try it quickly!"

Liang Yue nodded; he hadn't expected that there would be fried potato balls sold in the school district.

He then came to terms with it; potato balls are actually just fried potatoes. In this world, potatoes are a fairly common food.

It's considered a popular product here that's both filling and affordable.

Liang Yue picked up the parchment menu and began to look at it, then was shocked by the large number of unfamiliar names on it.

Are there too many flavors of fried potato balls?

"I'd like an order of Sichuan peppercorn-flavored fried potato balls."

Nina took a deep breath. "I'd like a chocolate-coated milk caramel..."

I clearly ordered fries, so why is the menu name so long?
