The Pseudo-Human Academy: Starting with a Bricklayer Personality

"Hongxia is a very obedient child, and I hope you can do your best to save her."

"The little girl has only experienced one dungeon. In the last dungeon, all her teammates died, which gave her psychological trauma."

"She feels she's very likely to die in the next dungeon, and hopes Comrade Xu Feng can lend her a hand."

Xu Feng pondered upon hearing this.

If you're just there to keep up, the rewards for the Chosen One dungeon will be halved.

You won't receive ladder points rewards, and you're very likely to die in the dungeon.

This is a thankless task.

Of course, it's also possible that some players intentionally suppress their ladder rankings, thus keeping the dungeons easy to clear.

However, the combat power of those below 300 and those above 300 is a watershed.

Once a chosen one reaches 300 ladder points, they will automatically gain a universal skill.

For example:

Immortality: Within a dungeon, after triggering the death rule, you are immune to death once. (Limited to once)

Danger perception: The ability to directly sense impending danger, but requires analysis and judgment to determine the source of the danger in order to avoid it.

Potential Burst: Increases constitution and vitality by one point for six hours. Can only be used once per instance. Cooldown in real time is 24 hours.

Potential Burst is a skill typically used on the day of reckoning, when kiting the hunter; it's a skill exclusive to the blue-clad guy.

However, even an ordinary chosen one with potential would likely perish if they encountered the vengeful ghost Dong Yu.

Prophet: Upon entering the instance, you can predict a death rule that is very easy to trigger, limited to once.

In reality, when dealing with paranormal events, one can only predict the death rule of that paranormal event once; if there is no death rule, one will not make a prediction.

…………

Jiang Chen looked at Xu Feng, who was deep in thought, and showed an expression of "I knew it," after all, people are selfish.

Although Comrade Xu Feng is powerful, he is ultimately not as warm-hearted as his predecessor, Zhao Chi, the city's head.

Just then, Xu Feng spoke up.

"So you're just going to be a runner-up, huh? I agree."

Xu Feng smiled elegantly and spoke calmly.

Let's halve the reward then!

I'll get an S-rank rating and make up for the missing half-point in my attributes, making it a perfect 14.

Upon hearing this, Hongxia's face lit up with joy.

As a newbie, Hongxia's next dungeon shouldn't be too difficult.

It might be BabyBus, who knows!

As long as it's not like the children's insoles from the Clan Grand Hotel, it's fine.

As long as he doesn't lose his memory, he's invincible.

Just then, a pop-up window appeared in front of Xu Feng.

[Rainbow Summer invites you to enter the dungeon together.]

Xu Feng agreed without hesitation.

Hongxia then spoke up:

"This time, there were originally six people participating in the dungeon, but with the addition of those who were just there to help, there are a total of eight."

"The teleportation is about to begin, and I'm the last one to click 'confirm' to enter the instance."

Xu Feng nodded. Okay.

A flash of light, and when Xu Feng opened his eyes again, he looked around.

He and Hongxia found themselves on a resort island.

The island was sunny and the weather was fine.

A large sign appeared before everyone's eyes:

Welcome to Starry Night Resort Island

Immediately, a notification popped up in front of everyone's eyes.

[The rules for this instance are hide-and-seek.]

[There are currently three hours of safe time.]

"A bloodthirsty gentleman?!" Ye Ningyun exclaimed in surprise when she saw Xu Feng's signature elegant smile.

Xu Feng smiled faintly and said:

"Are you here just to make up the numbers too?"

Ye Ningyun nodded:

"I guess so!"

"Holy crap! We have two pro players in our team, this dungeon is a sure thing." A rather refined-looking boy said.

"I hope so!" a young man said casually, adjusting his glasses.

"Let's introduce ourselves first!" Ye Ningyun said.

There were five men and three women on the field, all of whom were Chinese.

A man and a woman were standing very close together. They were both fairly good-looking, not exactly handsome or beautiful, but still quite pleasing to the eye.

The boy, who had a fairly refined demeanor, scratched his head and spoke first:

"My name is Lin Yuan, and this lady next to me is Wang Lili. We are a couple and have reached the point of discussing marriage."

The girl next to him immediately lowered her head in embarrassment.

Seeing the two looking so affectionate, everyone was speechless. Were they just publicly displaying their love?

A cool, aloof girl with long, straight black hair, dressed in a JK uniform and a Tang sword at her waist, said calmly with her arms crossed:

"Yu tide, high school student, city manager of Hongtai City."

"Li Ming, the math teacher," a man wearing glasses, who looked like a highly educated young man, said, adjusting his glasses.

"Mo Nian." A boy who seemed somewhat aloof put on his hood and said calmly.

"Um... my name is Hongxia. Nice to meet you. I'll try my best not to hold you back."

Hongxia said somewhat hesitantly.

When it was Xu Feng's turn, he revealed an elegant yet cruel smile and began to speak:

"Xu Feng, you've probably all heard of me to some extent, so I won't introduce myself."

Ye Ningyun frowned slightly and said:

"My name is Ye Ningyun, a member of the End Guild, and also the city manager."

Xu Feng glanced indifferently at everyone on the field. Apart from the young couple, it seemed that all of his teammates this time were testosterone-dependent.

The quality of the team members this time is quite good, so it seems unlikely that we'll see a repeat of the star-studded spectacle seen at the Clan Grand Hotel.

This is a high-stakes game, so the difficulty level might not be low.

"What does 'hide-and-seek' mean?" Ye Ningyun looked at the rules of this instance with a puzzled expression.

Math teacher Li Ming adjusted his glasses and said calmly:

"I don't know, maybe a ghost will appear in the dungeon, making us hide and then let the ghost find us..."

Halfway through his sentence, Li Ming stroked his chin thoughtfully, then spoke:

"I think I've found a way out."

"I suspect there's a monster among us, and when we play hide-and-seek, we'd better not choose that monster to 'catch' us."

"If you choose a human, it's just a normal game of hide-and-seek; if you choose a monster, catching a human can really mean someone's death!"

"Of course, it's also possible that the instance will send out a monster to find us."

"As it stands, Star Island's terrain resembles a flat hill with the highest point in the center. Down from the highest point, the forests are dense, making it difficult to see the whole view even from the top."

"This is extremely advantageous for us, and there are many vacation villas there, which are very convenient for us to hide in. If we really want the ghost to come looking for us, it probably won't be too difficult for it to find us."

Xu Feng's eyes lit up as he listened to Li Ming's analysis.

Looks like he has testicles!

This is truly a quality issue!

Just then, a notification popped up in front of everyone.

The Ghost is Hongxia. When a Ghost is killed, the person cannot die. Even if they suffer a fatal injury, they will recover instantly and always maintain their peak condition. Do not try to kill the Ghost, as the Chosen One cannot eliminate it by any means of attack.

The rest of the players need to hide for 16 hours. The game ends when the monster touches them, and they will be eliminated. No one can leave the area of ​​Starry Island Resort.

Please have Hongxia go to the mountaintop and silently count to half an hour before starting the search.

Anyone who violates the rules of the game will be eliminated immediately!
