Excessive ferocity due to caution

Warm sunlight streamed into the classroom through the glass windows, illuminating Yang Linlin's pretty profile.

A beautiful woman with a solid performance is enough to attract a large number of fans.

Especially male fans.

Therefore, shortly after Yang Linlin entered this instance, the live stream quickly attracted thousands of viewers.

Although they had only experienced four instances, they had witnessed Yang Linlin's growth.

From a useless rich girl who was just a pretty face, she has transformed into a thoughtful and tolerant new player, and her progress has attracted many fans.

Upon waking up at the instance spawn point, Yang Linlin's expression immediately turned extremely grim!

The words "Hell Difficulty" on the system screen made Yang Linlin's whole body go weak!

This is only my fourth time playing this dungeon!

Why am I so unlucky to encounter Hell difficulty?

The previous dungeon on normal difficulty had already tormented her to death, and she didn't even dare to think about what would happen on hell difficulty this time!

She is currently level 4 with a total of 25 health points. She died three times in the previous dungeon, which deducted 15 points, leaving her with 10 points.

If she dies again, the pressure of entering the dungeon next time will be extremely high!

It's important to know that once a player's health reaches zero, they will no longer be able to revive at the guild headquarters!

After standing there stunned for a few seconds, Yang Linlin turned her head in a panic and saw that only half of the people in the classroom were sitting crookedly.

Three of them had obvious markings above their heads.

It was a player she was matched with.

Looking at the three brothers, Yang Linlin felt a sense of despair!

These three are even lower level than her; they're absolute newbies!

There's absolutely no way to count on them!

Are they really going to give up for nothing today?

And that guy named Zhao Yi, he seems completely unaware of how terrifying this dungeon is, he even has the mind to look around!

Yang Linlin closed her eyes in pain and exhaled.

Now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.

It's lunch break time now.

The students in the classroom were either talking or sleeping.

I took a look at the course schedule and the large hanging clock.

There are still ten minutes until the first math class this afternoon!

good chance!

They can take this opportunity to discuss things and exchange information!

So, at Yang Linlin's invitation, the four of them went to a lawn outside the classroom.

"Listen, we are now facing unprecedented difficulties and dangers!"

"Over the next seven days, we must work together and cooperate to have any chance of survival!"

"Now, what are your thoughts on this instance?"

Zhentao and Lu Bai shrugged, looking helpless.

I just entered the game, what can I say?

Zhao Yi stood outside the window, hands in his pockets, carefully observing the classrooms on the first floor.

Every classroom was not full.

Furthermore, the number of people in all classrooms is less than half the number of seats.

If a classroom has forty-six seats, then the number of people in the classroom will not exceed twenty-three.

All eight classes in a row were like this.

It's a very interesting phenomenon, but... what does it signify?

Zhao Yi became alert.

"Hey—Zhao Yi, why aren't you saying anything?"

"Didn't you hear me say we need to unite?"

"We must communicate more now and exchange useful information in order to survive!"

Yang Linlin watched as Zhao Yi walked away on his own, ignoring them, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

The dungeon is already difficult enough, but if your teammates don't cooperate, it will be even more difficult!

"Zhao Yi... I feel like I've seen that name somewhere before..."

Zhentao muttered something to himself, then suddenly looked up.

"Are you the newbie who got an S+ rating in the 'Colossus Hospital' dungeon on Hell difficulty and ranked number one on the newbie leaderboard?"

The other two were also taken aback when they heard this.

Soon, they learned about Zhao Yi through the system.

Number one on the newcomer rankings!

Cattle!

This is a top performer who fought his way out from millions of others!

Looking at the intense gazes of the three men, Zhao Yi stroked his chin and said:

"Do you remember your seats?"

Yang Linlin replied:

"Of course I remember, what's wrong?"

Zhao Yi did not answer, but instead gave a meaningful look at the classroom on the third floor.

"It's nothing."

"Class is about to start, let's go back to the classroom."

"If nothing unexpected happens... quite a few people will probably die in our classroom today."

"Oh, right, remember to sit in your assigned seat... don't sit in the wrong one!"

The tone of that last sentence was so chilling it sent shivers down my spine.

The three looked at each other, and Zhentao's face gradually turned pale.

"Zhentao, what's wrong?"

"I...I think I forgot my seat!"

After speaking, he looked at Zhao Yi.

"Brother Zhao, is this...is this really that important?!"

Zhao Yi rolled his eyes and said:

"I'm not sure if other locations are dangerous, but our spawn point is definitely safe for the short term."

"If you really can't remember, try to recall the reference points you have remembered."

Live stream chat:

No wonder you're number one! Your thinking is so clear!

After leaving the newcomer recommendation platform, Brother Zhao's popularity vanished instantly, and his live stream only had a little over 300 viewers.

Come on, what newbie streamer who just started playing the game has this much viewership? Over 300 is a lot, okay?

Yo-ho! Another hellish difficulty dungeon. Zhao Yi is such an unlucky guy!

For capable players, the higher the dungeon difficulty, the better. It's impossible to get an S or higher rating in dungeons with a difficulty level below Nightmare.

This time, without the system's help to weaken the ghost's power, he can't pull off any tricks! I'll see how he dies!

No way, does anyone really think they can reach number one on the leaderboard by using clever tricks?

……

Ding-dong-

The school bell rang.

The music was still the same familiar music, but there was too much noise in the sound, and you could vaguely hear some kind of howling, which was terrifying!

The students in Class 8 of Grade 1 all sat up straight to welcome the teacher.

You could tell they were very nervous.

Zhao Yi's gaze swept over all the students in the classroom.

His pupils turned a terrifying crimson in that instant, spinning like a kaleidoscope.

He had all the students' data at his fingertips.

In this classroom...

They were all ghosts!

Not a single person!

Fortunately, these classmates are all neutral units and won't harm these players for no reason.

The door was pushed open, and a female teacher dressed in formal business attire walked into the classroom.

[Female Teacher: Triggered Neutrality]

[Note: This unit remains neutral unless its hunting conditions are triggered. Once the hunting conditions are triggered, the unit's strength will surge and recover after killing the target.]

Triggered neutrality?

Zhao Yi seemed to understand something and glanced at the test paper in her hand.

Is the trigger related to the exam paper in her hand, or to their seats?

Or perhaps... both are related?

"We'll have a test in this class."

The female teacher said calmly.

After she finished speaking, Zhao Yi clearly noticed that the fat ghost in front of him was trembling!

The female teacher explained the exam rules and then personally distributed the exam papers.

From the first one on the right to the last one on the left.

Even though there were no students in the empty seats, the female teacher still patiently distributed the test papers and draft paper to those seats.

Zhao Yi glanced at an empty seat that was relatively close to her.

The interview papers and draft paper above are all pure white.

There were no words on the exam paper.

However, some of the exam papers with a few empty seats had writing on them.

Zhao glanced at his test paper, which contained some very basic and simple math problems.

For example—please prove Goldbach's conjecture.

it is good!

Not at all.

Zhao Yi quickly wrote down his name and student ID number.

The rest is up to the eraser.

Exam discipline was lax; many students were looking around, and some even took out their phones to search for exam questions. But the female teacher didn't seem to care much. She opened the roster on the podium and carefully checked the students in the classroom.

But Zhao Yi keenly noticed that the ghost sitting in front of him was trembling even more violently!

He seemed... to be afraid!
