When the beauty of cultivation enters the infinite live broadcast
Chapter 63: Fool's Carnival 18
"What are your plans next?"
Hua Meng really wanted to know whether Bai Yuanyuan could leave this special dormitory building after absorbing the ghost fetus. Hua Meng personally hoped that she could not leave. After all, letting a fierce ghost wander around in the school was too dangerous.
But Bai Yuanyuan had no intention of leaving. Her revenge had been fulfilled, and it didn't matter to her whether she stayed or left. Now that she was out, was she going to visit her old classmates in this awful state?
There was no need for those old classmates to see her. No one cared about her life or death anyway. Bai Yuanyuan thought it was fine to stay in the dormitory building. It was a pity that the neighbor she could chat with was no longer there.
Ah, I almost forgot, that neighbor was absorbed by me, and now she is with her neighbor forever.
Seeing that Bai Yuanyuan had no intention of going out, Hua Meng felt relieved.
Now, half of the background story of this copy has been revealed, and the remaining focus is on the principal and school leaders.
Attending classes and taking exams were no longer their focus. Hua Meng felt that they had to find a way to allow them to regain their freedom while ensuring that they could take the final exam and graduate successfully.
Now the entire building is under Bai Yuanyuan's control. What the three of them have to do now is to ensure not to anger Bai Yuanyuan, wait calmly for the dawn to come, and leave here.
Fortunately, they were all safe and sound for the next few hours, and Bai Yuanyuan went to inspect her new territory.
"Will Bai Yuanyuan become an independent entity like that convenience store owner?"
Lian Wu felt that Bai Yuanyuan was in a similar situation to the convenience store owner. There was no one to control them, and they also had their own territory.
"Perhaps, it depends on Bai Yuanyuan's luck. But judging by the current situation, Bai Yuanyuan isn't decisive enough, and it'll be difficult for her to maintain control of this place for long. While the shop owner may not seem particularly lethal, his space has already formed its own rules. If singled out, it could even become a unique instance of welfare."
Feng Ling wasn't too optimistic about Bai Yuanyuan. Her malice wasn't pure enough, and she was considered weak among the evil spirits. But then again, in a low-level dungeon, how could you expect a non-boss evil spirit to be ridiculously strong?
Hua Meng only had four cards left. Originally, he had planned to use up these last few cards during this April Fool's Revelry, essentially cutting off his own escape route and trying to leave Jing Yi before the next April's Revelry.
The cards have not been used up, and Hua Meng is not sure whether this is a bad sign. If it were in the real world, he would still think about talking about science, but this is a copy, and sometimes metaphysics is more important than science.
During these few hours, the three of them were very bored, and in the end it was Hua Meng who broke the deadlock and took the initiative to chat.
"How many copies have you completed?"
"the second."
Lian Wu had nothing to hide, and he didn't intend to hide anything. The people here couldn't possibly come to his original world to kill him. If possible, Lian Wu himself wanted to ask them how they got there. It would be even better if they could take him back.
"Can not remember."
Feng Ling hadn't been hiding it on purpose; it was just so long ago that he couldn't remember. Previously, he could have clicked on his business card on the leaderboard to see the dungeon count. Now that Feng Ling had come back, all that information, including the dungeon count, was hidden, so he couldn't find anything.
"This should be my 76th copy, and this is my fourth year in Shocking Memory."
Compared to Lian Wu and Feng Ling, Hua Meng seemed even more indifferent. His information could be found on the rankings. He had been in Jing Yi for long enough, so long that he almost forgot what he looked like when he first came in.
Hua Meng had a relieved smile on his face as he turned the four cards in his hand. The cards flipped quickly between his white fingers. He was like an experienced dealer dealing cards to the gamblers.
Lian Wu realized that Hua Meng was using small movements to cover up her sadness. In addition, the surrounding environment was much colder than normal, which made Hua Meng look even more desolate and lonely.
On the other hand, Feng Ling looked really free and easy, as if none of this mattered to him and there was nothing he cared about.
There seemed to be no point in continuing this awkward conversation, so Hua Meng chose to bring the topic back to the dungeon.
"Right now, we have a few important things to do. First, go to the disciplinary room and investigate the situation there. If we encounter the victim, that would be great. Second, get an application for self-study or a leave of absence. We don't need to waste time in those classes right now; we're barely getting any leads there."
If we can get a leave request or a self-study application, we'll have more time to explore the dungeon. Once we've gathered enough information, without worrying about other players, we can use the time warp item and find a way to skip straight to the final exam."
Feng Ling interrupted Hua Meng, his face full of helplessness.
"Normally, graduation should be achieved by completing the academic exams, but there should be more than one way to do it in this instance. After all, not everyone has successfully passed the academic exams before obtaining their new identity. He Fangteng is the worst of the worst students. He didn't even pass any of the previous academic exams. If I want to get a diploma, I'd better forget it."
"This is our third task, finding another way to graduate. The dungeon world is definitely different from the real world. I've been wondering if the identities of these dungeon NPCs can be replaced. If the principal's identity can be replaced, then all the remaining players won't have to worry about failing the dungeon."
Hua Meng thinks this is a relatively good ending. The higher the survival rate, the higher the copy score will be. The higher the score, the more points you will get, and the better the settlement rewards will be.
[It’s great to be a principal. Fire all those bad teachers!]
[How could it be that easy? Just tell me, how many of the school leaders have you met so far? Not to mention the others, I've never even met that highly paid Liu Duanchang. Don't expect to meet the principal easily.]
[The person above, don't be so absolute. After the final exams, there's usually a scholarship distribution process. Do you think the principal wouldn't step in at that time? And there's also the 100-day oath-taking ceremony. There are plenty of opportunities for the principal to step in. Isn't replacing someone's status the more difficult part?]
[You can only talk about it on paper. If you really go into the dungeon, you might all be more cowardly than the other.]
[I watch live streams just for fun, don't I? What's the big deal? Clearing dungeons on a normal day is already pathetic enough, so why should I feel so bad watching live streams?]
[Hmm...seems fine.]
Lian Wu had no objection to this. He vaguely remembered the teacher positions in the Academic Affairs Office, and one of the teachers was responsible for managing these procedures.
Feng Ling's words confirmed his thoughts.
"The Dean of the Academic Affairs Office has absolute say on these matters, so we might need to contact him first. But to get approval, we either need to have leverage over him or offer him attractive benefits. If we don't have either, we might need to resort to force."
However, resolving the issue by force may have serious consequences. The Director of the Academic Affairs Office may set a trap for them or lower the teachers' favorable impression of them, which will be extremely detrimental to subsequent actions.
Furthermore, the Dean of the Academic Affairs Office has absolute authority, seemingly the most powerful person besides the principal. This could very well hinder their graduation.
There are too many uncertainties, so their priority is to find leverage and benefits.
After several hours of discussion and rebuttal, they finally worked out a follow-up action plan. Everyone had different tasks, so they would act separately, with Hua Meng using anchor points to connect them.
Dawn arrived and the black fog dissipated. As the sunlight gradually shone on the dormitory building, the two dormitory spaces completed the alternation. They returned to the rooftop. Zhou Xiaer had been waiting for a long time.
This was the first time they saw the rising sun in the dungeon. In the previous few mornings, all they saw was foggy.
The sunlight shone on the earth, and a shadow appeared under Zhou Xiaer's feet.
"Reborn?"
Lian Wu looked at Zhou Xiaer in confusion. He had never heard of such a method of rebirth.
"No, I only possessed the body briefly. I can switch back to ghost form at any time to avoid scaring others."
If it is really possible to directly resurrect from a ghost into a living person, Jingyi would not have to create a copy world. Just creating a resurrection spell would be enough to compete with the underworld for work.
All the players here know Jingyi, because all the copies belong to Jingyi, but few people notice that the full name of Jingyi is Jingyi Infinite Live Broadcast Platform.
The ones who really paid attention to these points were basically the veteran players at the top of the leaderboard. They speculated that there was a new world outside of Jingyi, and that those who left Jingyi were living there. Even the audience in the live broadcast room might include veteran players who had left Jingyi.
The whistle blew, and they realized it wasn't April Fools' Day anymore, and they still had to go to class. But if they went downstairs, they'd probably run into other people. It would be okay if they ran into students, but if they ran into teachers, it would be hard to explain why they were on the rooftop so early in the morning.
Lian Wu and Feng Ling turned their gaze to Hua Meng. They still remembered how Hua Meng brought the earthworm to the first floor.
Hua Meng silently flew back a little, swallowing his saliva. Carrying one earthworm was easy enough, but with two people in front of him, it was not realistic to carry them all at once. So he chose to do it in two batches. The disadvantage was that the students might see him during the flight.
After two near-misses, the three of them successfully reached the lawn next to the dormitory building. As for Zhou Xiaer, he descended directly in ghost form, passing through several students along the way. The chilling sensation made those students rub their arms.
There are earthworms causing trouble in the boys' dormitory, but things are much smoother in the girls' dormitory because they are all players on the same team.
The four members of the seven-person group who hadn't gone to the cafeteria had already been waiting outside the dormitory. By the time Xia Fu and the other two emerged from the cafeteria, Xu Qing and the others had already met them inside the dormitory. Although they were all low-level players, they were far more united than the Earthworms, and their numbers were greater. By the next morning, no one had been killed.
However, their task did not include finding bookmarks, after all, they could not find another senior student to hide bookmarks in the dormitory. They found the student who had curse words written all over his body, and the reason was unexpected.
And they were very lucky. When they came out of the dormitory building, they were brushed to the door and successfully left the dormitory before the dormitory manager and the teachers arrived, avoiding the situation of finding a large number of boys in the girls' dormitory.
Even if they were not sure about other violations, the discovery of a large number of boys in the girls' dormitory was absolutely impossible to allow in a school that cracks down on premature love so strictly.
Lian Wu and the others also arrived at the normal cafeteria safely.
April Fool's Carnival does not affect the dungeon during normal hours. The monsters killed by them on April Fool's Day are now being served in the cafeteria as usual.
However, unlike usual, banners were hung all over the school, welcoming a leader to visit and provide guidance.
Feng Ling found this leader from the large amount of information he had copied from the Academic Affairs Office. This leader was the vice president who advocated hiring Liu Duanchang with a high salary, and his surname was also Liu.
The reason why Liu Duanchang has a relatively large say is also related to this.
The information shows that Vice Principal Liu is a female teacher in her fifties. She used to teach in the past few years, but for some reason she has been idle in recent years.
Hua Meng found the part he wanted from the information.
"Vice President Liu had quite a bit of power, but after he stopped teaching, that power was divided. The Dean of Academic Affairs gained a lot of it. I believe the Dean of Academic Affairs should be interested in the remaining power."
People are always greedy. After getting one thing, they will think about whether they can get the next one. Greed is often magnified in the copy world.
Feng Ling felt that this matter had certain feasibility. The more troublesome thing was that if the director of the Political Education Department turned against them after gaining power, the director of the Academic Affairs Department, who had more power, would definitely not let them go.
"If we ask the director of the Political Education Department to sign our self-study application in exchange for helping him gain power, I think it's quite possible. But this director of the Political Education Department may not be someone who keeps his word."
"The key is how do we seize power from Vice President Liu? If it's really possible to seize power, why can't we get it?"
Lian Wu thought more boldly. Since someone would have to take this power sooner or later, why not control it directly in his own hands? Then he wouldn't have to worry about the director of the Academic Affairs Office turning against him.
The bold idea shocked Hua Meng. He knew that the two people in front of him were capable, but he didn't expect Lian Wu to be so bold after only completing the second copy. However, Lian Wu's idea was indeed a good one. Power is only at ease when it is in one's own hands.
