Transformed into Hyper Zetton, the school beauty was terrified in the second playthrough.

3 PM.

Monster Hunter Academy Central Plaza.

Lin Chengfeng stood at the very back of the corpse dissection team, carrying a satchel, his clothes almost soaked with sweat.

He walked from the lower district to the upper district just to save on taxi fare.

In the past, such an ordeal would have left me exhausted.

But he didn't feel tired at all at that moment.

"The transformation device that integrates Hyper Zetton indirectly enhanced my physical abilities?" Lin Chengfeng guessed.

The other autopsy team members cast strange glances at him.

"Hey, isn't that guy a third-year student? What's he doing taking the graduation exam?"

"I heard from the teacher... that he seems to be the top student in the third-year autopsy class, so they let him come early to observe and learn."

"His teacher is so carefree, he actually came to study for such a dangerous assessment..."

"Ahem." The instructor from the Corpse Dissection Team at the front of the group cleared his throat and called out, "Alright, quiet down, the combat team is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of students dressed in tight-fitting black combat suits came to the square with arrogant expressions.

Many of them looked at the students of the Corpse Dissection Team with disdain.

Among them, Lin Chengfeng caught a malicious glint in his eye.

He immediately looked up and met Zhao Bei's smug gaze.

Zhao Bei curled up a malicious sneer, stared intently at Lin Chengfeng for a moment, and then looked away.

Lin Chengfeng frowned.

"I remember this guy claimed to be Gu Wanxue's follower, and we were both third-year students. How did he end up in the graduating class? And what was with the look he gave me just now? Did I owe him money? Or did I kill his whole family?"

Lin Chengfeng couldn't understand why someone he had never met before would suddenly harbor malice towards him.

Just as he was pondering whether his participation in the night exam with the graduating class had anything to do with Zhao Bei, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.

As Gu Wanxue followed behind the graduating class, her gaze swept over the Corpse Dissection Team and she happened to meet Lin Chengfeng's eyes.

The two of them were stunned for a moment.

"Why is he/she here?!" The two of them asked themselves the same question at the same time.

Compared to Lin Chengfeng, Gu Wanxue appeared much more flustered.

"How could this happen?!"

"In his past life, Lin Chengfeng didn't even take the night exam for his graduating class. Why is he here in this life?!" Gu Wanxue exclaimed in confusion.

Everything's in chaos.

First, there was the grave-digging, then the joining of the graduating class's night exam. These events clearly did not happen in the previous life, but they did happen in the second life.

Gu Wanxue gritted her teeth and looked at the teacher leading the team beside her, asking, "Teacher, I remember the last person in the corpse dissection team was a third-year student, right? Why is he in the graduating class?"

"Oh, him? Like Zhao Bei, he was allowed to take the night exam as an exception because of his excellent grades. There aren't any strict criteria; it's just a formality, and there's no danger."

Gu Wanxue gritted her teeth. She wasn't a graduating student. It was precisely because the graduating class was going to be wiped out that she begged her homeroom teacher to let her join as a spectator to gain combat experience.

The real purpose was to save the graduating class and also to save Longyuan Base City.

Zhao Bei, who was walking at the front of the group, heard Gu Wanxue's conversation with the teacher and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"You've never even looked at me properly, yet now you're showing concern for a lowly student from the Corpse Dissection Team. You two are definitely in cahoots!"

"If I can't touch you, can't I at least touch that good-for-nothing brat?!" Zhao Bei's smile grew colder as he plotted how to harm Lin Chengfeng.

The two supervising teachers stood together, scanning the students in the autopsy team and the combatant students.

"Alright, everyone's here."

"Zhao Fengyun has another mission, so don't expect to rely on him to get by this time. Get your gear and get on the bus."

……

Two transport vehicles drove out of the upper city and arrived at a heavily guarded military area.

This is the only place leading to the surface.

After a series of checks, the two vehicles were brought onto a spacious platform.

Rumble!!

The platform slowly rose, emitting a deafening roar.

It was Lin Chengfeng's first time going to the surface, and he was quite looking forward to seeing what the scenery outside would be like.

The levitation ladder ascended very slowly. During this time, the supervising teacher explained the assessment standards to the members of the autopsy team.

"According to intelligence, a Nightmare-level monster will appear at the Jiangcheng Ruins tonight. The combatant assessment involves killing that monster within half an hour, while your assessment involves completing the dissection within 45 minutes and properly classifying the materials. Understand?"

"clear!"

The members of the autopsy team answered in unison.

The requirements seem difficult, but they are actually not simple at all.

Visibility is limited at night, and if you misjudge which part of the body is suitable for dissection, you're doomed.

Material damage is a minor issue; some monsters can even explode.

It would be a huge loss to blow yourself up.

Boom!

As the platform reached the top, the side door of the mountain slowly opened a crack, and two transport vehicles drove out side by side.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the glass window onto Lin Chengfeng's face. He subconsciously squinted, realizing that this was the first time he had seen the real sun since coming into this world.

The glare was far greater than that of the simulated light in the underground base city.

Once on the surface, they still had to travel a considerable distance.

Lin Chengfeng originally thought the ground was barren, but in reality, it was covered with green plants and showed no signs of desolation.

Upon arriving at the Jiangcheng Ruins, it turned out to be just an abandoned city. Although there were traces of destruction caused by monsters, the affected area was not large.

The car was parked in the suburbs.

The two teachers leading the team used instruments to survey the situation in Jiangcheng.

The radar scan detected a massive energy source at a distance of ten kilometers.

"There's no mistake, it's the Abyss Rift."

"Based on the energy index, it can be confirmed as a Nightmare-level monster." The two teachers nodded in unison and looked at the students behind them.

"Alright, your assessment is now beginning."

"Head to the coordinates to defeat the Nightmare Monster! Action!"

"yes!"

The combatants led the way, followed closely by the dismemberment team.

The two teachers leading the team didn't appear to follow, but they would secretly keep up after a while.

Zhao Bei glanced back at Lin Chengfeng, a sinister smirk playing on his lips.

"In the base city, I will encounter a lot of obstacles and trouble when I move against you, but it will be different once we get to the surface."

"It's perfectly reasonable for the autopsy worker to die accidentally while dissecting the monster, hehehe..."

"I have no grudge against you, it's just that Gu Wanxue insisted on acting so concerned about you." Zhao Bei withdrew his gaze, looking at Gu Wanxue's back in front of him, a ruthless glint in his eyes.
