Dragon Raja's Number One Player

Chapter 141 Another expressionless face

Only two rows of enormous bookshelves remained standing in the library, and apart from the earlier noise, there was no other sound.

Lin Zhiying seemed to be talking to thin air, but he didn't leave and remained standing in the same spot.

A moment later, a figure emerged from the gap between the two bookshelves.

This is a girl with skin as white as snow, and her veins are clearly visible under the light. She has white blonde hair on her head and looks only a teenager.

Lin Zhiying could only associate this outfit with one person—10.

But here's the question: why is she here at this time?

Zero, who was called out, did not panic at all. She quietly met Lin Zhiying's eyes, and soon her gaze shifted to the other side, looking at the white card in Lin Zhiying's hand.

"Can I have it?"

Her voice was like the crisp clinking of ice cubes.

Lin Zhiying was standing still, not having reacted.

"Can I borrow it for a moment?"

Zero spoke again, his voice tinged with a hint of emotion.

Lin Zhiying looked at Ling with a strange expression.

Judging from the other person's expression, could it be that they know the function of the card, which is why they did this?

But that's not how you ask for help. When you ask for help, you should show your belly, okay?

You should at least try to seduce me a little before I give you the card. You're trying to get something for nothing by asking me to give it to you for free.

Do you think I'm Lu Mingfei? Someone who gets hung up and run around without even getting any meat.

"I can give it to you, but as far as I know, there aren't many 'Norma' access cards, especially blank cards like this. What price are you willing to pay in exchange?"

Lin Zhiying looked at the girl with a smile in his eyes.

Although there was no indication on the panel, Lin Zhiying realized what it was the moment she received the card.

Because a player in the previous game had obtained something similar, it was posted on the forum and caused quite a stir.

At the time, it was just a mission item that allowed him to temporarily use the black card, which could only activate up to 80% of Norma's permissions.

However, these permissions already include the "ice cellar" which can be freely entered and exited.

Lin Zhiying couldn't even imagine what a white card, which was of a higher level, could do.

"Norma" has been adjusted twice, and it is unknown which batch this white card was left over from.

Lin Zhiying could roughly guess why she was there, given that she hadn't asked for a white card.

It was just Lu Mingze's order.

It should be noted that the library is one of the entrances to the "ice cellar".

Without prior reconnaissance, Mai Shude wouldn't have been able to enter the "ice cellar" as easily as in the original story.

She and she had the same thought about the "Freedom Day" library's lax management.

When Ling heard Lin Zhiying's words and saw that he understood what it was, he felt a little regretful. Now he couldn't get it at a lower price.

She was puzzled as to why Lin Zhiying was here today.

And there's something strange about this: she sneaked into the library today, but none of the methods she had originally planned to use worked.

The library seemed to have "Welcome" written on its forehead, allowing me to enter the core area very smoothly.

Zero cautiously arrived at the entrance of the "Ice Cellar," only to find that even the alchemical array at the entrance of the "Ice Cellar" had disappeared.

Is this a trap set by "Kassel College"?

This unusual behavior made Zero hesitant to act, suspecting something was amiss. After pondering for a moment at the entrance, he ultimately decided not to go in.

Originally, I planned to take advantage of the fact that "Free Day" was not over yet and see if I could find something useful in the library, but I ended up meeting Lin Zhiying in front of me.

"I can help you gain 'one day of freedom' and make you 'Emperor'."

After a moment of silence, Zero spoke up, saying that she wouldn't mind revealing some of her strength as long as she could get that white card.

"Becoming the 'Emperor' of 'Freedom for One Day' grants the right to use Norton Hall for one year, qualification for the finals of next year's 'Academy Star' competition, and the ability to ask any girl on campus to date him without being refused, and to maintain the relationship for at least three months."

Zero, unusually, spoke at length, introducing the privileges of becoming the "Emperor" of "Freedom for One Day".

Norton Hall can easily generate at least tens of thousands of dollars a year by subletting; "Academy Star" is another activity altogether.

In short, once you become the "emperor" for "one day of freedom," your three wishes—money, power, and status—will be fulfilled all at once!

Zero doesn't think that young people with hormones raging right now could resist it.

When someone repeatedly urges you to do something, you should consider whether they will gain more from it. If the "Emperor" of "Freedom Day" is really that comfortable, why doesn't Zero do it himself?

"No need, thank you."

Having understood this, Lin Zhiying shrugged and directly expressed his refusal.

Besides, I had already made so many preparations and had a great chance of winning the "Emperor" title. It would be a bit of a loss to make a deal with Zero.

So why are you using my own things to make a deal with me?

Ling was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Zhiying's refusal, but she didn't show it; her face remained expressionless.

She didn't say anything more, straightened up and walked out; that was already the best she could offer.

Going any higher would inevitably expose other people.

"Thanks."

As she passed by Lin Zhiying, the girl whispered something.

No, one Chu Zihang with facial paralysis is enough, why are you joining in?

Moreover, they often speak in a way that is not clear.

Fortunately, Lin Zhiying understood what she meant; she was probably thanking him for helping her distract "Norma," otherwise they would have been discovered.

Speaking of "Norma", the pale blue figure of "Norma" who left earlier slowly walked over, pulling a black food cart with a cup of coffee on it.

"Give her the coffee."

"6

Lin Zhiying spoke up.

"Yes, sir."

Upon hearing this, "Norma" handed the coffee in her hand to Zero.

Ling took the coffee; the temperature was just right. She took a sip and turned around to look at Lin Zhiying with some surprise, wondering what he meant.

"Norma, are the security cameras turned off here?"

Lin Zhiying suddenly asked a question.

"Since the start of 'Freedom Day,' the surveillance footage from here has no longer been uploaded to the main network."

"Norma" answered.

Lin Zhiying didn't doubt the authenticity of this information; the white card in his hand represented the highest level of authority, allowing him to...

Norma does not lie.

After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Then delete all the surveillance footage of me entering the rare books section of the library."

"Okay, the record has been deleted for you. It cannot be found by any means."

"Norma's" voice said.

This is the privilege that the white card gives him; if he wants, he can even directly use "Norma" to make himself the winner of this "Freedom Day".

Lin Zhiying smiled and walked to Zero's side. "Now you have no worries. Can we talk about the collaboration?"

For the first time, a look of confusion appeared on Ling's usually calm face.

This guy is so strange. Didn't he say he wouldn't cooperate with me before? Why is he asking now?

The reason why Lin Zhiying is so inconsistent is not because he is Schrödinger.

He doesn't cooperate with Zero because Zero can't offer him any benefits. On the contrary, he's calling Zero over now to make her owe him a favor.

As one of the few female characters in the original work, how could I let her slip away so easily?

In this way, the nature of the matter completely changed, and it turned out that he had done her a favor, making her owe him one.

There will be more opportunities to get to know her later, and the strength of the mothers' group is not to be underestimated. Together they are definitely comparable to "Xia Mi".

Speaking of Xia Mi, Lin Zhiying wonders if she will be able to fully process the "power" she has gained after "a day of freedom".

"Okay, what are your plans?" Zero asked.

This implicitly acknowledges the existence of cooperation.

"Let's take a look at the outside world and understand the current situation."

Lin Zhiying spoke first, then continued, "Norma, turn on the outside surveillance cameras."

"OK."

Norma waved her hand in the air, and a series of light and shadow flashed by. Under the light projection, rows of screens appeared in front of the two.

Although Lin Zhiying now has a white card, he doesn't dare to use his privileges too openly, otherwise Angers and the other school board members will definitely find out.

Angers might not say anything, but it's hard to say about the others. If they find out about him and take the card away, it would be a loss for him.

Each screen displays a specific area within the campus.

Players have gradually adapted to the environment. Although the rules prohibit cooperation, it is still possible as long as a certain safe distance is maintained.

Judging from the surveillance footage, the players rarely hurt each other. After all, compared to the "Lionheart Society" and the "Student Council," their strength is much weaker. It would be unwise for them to fight amongst themselves at this time.

On the contrary, the Lionheart Society and the Student Council suffered significant losses due to conflicts caused by the lack of players. However, under the command of Caesar and Chu Zihang, they also intentionally reduced friction.

Lin Zhiying looked at the players on the screen and shook his head. The players weren't without a chance of winning; it just depended on whether they realized it.

Because they cannot work as a team, most members of the Lionheart Society and the Student Council act alone, giving players the opportunity to eliminate other NPCs.

Since the NPCs are all wearing special combat suits, you don't necessarily have to defeat them. You just need to break their armor in vital areas to activate the spray, which gives you a lot of room for maneuver.

When all the remaining players rush in, even if Chu Zihang and Caesar are incredibly strong, they won't last long without the power of words.

When you calculate it carefully, the player even has a slight advantage.

The number of people is one thing, but on the other hand, they can take off their combat uniforms and fight with real weapons. At worst, they will die. Anyway, in the safe zone, the cost of death is not high.

Lin Zhiying looked at the ninth screen.

In the image, a nearly transparent, almost invisible white film slowly pauses.

"This is the academy's theater."

"Norma" began to explain.
