Godslayer: I use the costume system to cosplay as a god!

Chapter 48 "Seven Nights, Are You Definitely Going to Show Off?"

Lin Qiye coughed twice and slowly said:

"Lin Lin doesn't like overly ostentatious displays, especially in public!"

"A true leader is often the most low-key!"

"Keep a low profile and do great things quietly; play dumb to outsmart others."

"You guys need to be more discreet next time, understand?"

His words left Lin Lin's fans and the male admirers of the arrogant guy completely stunned.

What a wonderful and engaging presentation!

Afterwards, the five of them sat down in their familiar spot at the very edge of the cafeteria.

As soon as Lin Lin sat down at the table, he turned to look at Lin Qiye, his eyes flashing with a forced smile:

"Seven Nights, what do you mean by 'next time'?"

Are you teaching them how to do things?

Lin Qiye's lips curled slightly. "Didn't you tell me to go?"

Lin Lin remained expressionless and unmoved.

"I didn't ask you to book the next one for me directly."

At the same time, Shen Qingzhu frowned slightly and spoke helplessly:

"And don't instill any weird ideas in my underlings."

"They really do learn!"

While handing Lin Qiye soy milk, Cao Yuan calmly said:

"At least Qiye did a great job with his mission; they didn't bother us while we were eating."

Lin Lin and Shen Qingzhu asked in unison.

"Should I thank him?"

"You're welcome."

This was Lin Qiye's quick and easy response.

"..."

Unable to find myself speechless.

For a moment, Lin Lin didn't know how to respond.

"That's right (chewing) Since things have come to this (chewing), let's eat first (chewing)!"

Across from him, Baili Pangpang, with a steamed bun still stuffed in his mouth, couldn't help but interject.

Lin Lin rarely lost a verbal battle, and the emperor was greatly displeased.

In the end, he decided to finish eating before continuing the fight!

After all, Lin Lin hadn't had a proper meal in several days.

Congratulations! This breakfast has finally met the system's tribute standards.

However, just as the group was enjoying their hard-earned breakfast...

Snap... Snap... Snap.

Suddenly, the table started making noises.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and the source of the sound was Baili Pangpang, who was sitting in a chair and moving around inexplicably.

*Snap!* Another noise was heard.

Sitting next to Fatty Baili, Shen Qingzhu clicked her tongue, unable to bear it any longer, and turned to look at Fatty Baili.

"Can you please stop pulling down your pants!"

Baili Pangpang looked up at everyone with an expression that was seven parts innocent, two parts aggrieved, and one part confused.

"No, don't you guys get crotch pain if you're not wearing underwear?"

The remaining four people: "..."

That's enough, they still need to eat!

After some lighthearted banter, the five of them ate and drank their fill, with some time still to go before training.

Lin Lin and Lin Qiye exchanged a glance, and simultaneously recalled what the instructor had talked to them about privately after they got off the bus yesterday—the compensation for the [Mask] challenge.

"It's still early, you guys go back to your dorms first. I have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Lin Lin was the first to stand up and look at everyone, speaking calmly.

The next moment, Lin Qiye also stood up, coughed lightly, and said casually:

"I also have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

Then, Lin Lin raised her hand to cover her mouth and said in a slightly exaggerated manner, "Ah, you also have private matters? What a coincidence."

“Yes, what a coincidence,” Lin Qiye replied with a smile.

"Then let's go together."

"why not?"

The conversation flowed smoothly and naturally.

As soon as the two finished speaking, without waiting for the other three to reply, they turned around and walked out of the cafeteria.

Baili Pangpang, Cao Yuan, and Shen Qingzhu: "..."

If you make it any more fake, they'll believe you.

Baili Pangpang picked up a meat bun, took a bite, and muttered as he chewed, "The two of them, all mysterious..."

Shen Qingzhu raised her hand, took a sip of soy milk, and said nothing.

Cao Yuan said calmly, "It's alright. Qi Ye must have his reasons for doing whatever he does."

After saying that, he thought for a moment and added, "Lin Lin... should be too."

...

After leaving the cafeteria, Lin Lin and Lin Qiye went directly to the instructor's office.

"report!"

"Report."

"Enter."

The two walked into the office, and Instructor Hong's lips twitched when he saw them. "So eager to make amends? You came over first thing in the morning."

"What's going on?"

Lin Lin nodded quite calmly.

"Just in time."

Lin Qiye calmly shrugged.

"Alright, please sit down."

Instructor Hong stood up, took out two envelopes and two black boxes from the cabinet, and placed them in front of the two men respectively.

“Wang has already told us that there are two bank cards in the envelope on the left, each with 50 yuan.”

"The box on the right contains forbidden items for you."

"You two are really something, this time you've made our Chief Yuan bleed a lot."

Instructor Hong remarked with emotion.

"Did Instructor Yuan raise this money himself? But I didn't ask for cash. I only said it was prohibited."

Lin Lin rested her chin on her hand and asked with some curiosity.

"Tsk, it was the chief's idea to have you fight Mask. You both tore Mask's mask, so we can't favor one over the other."

Instructor Hong glanced at Lin Lin helplessly.

Lin Qiye looked at the envelope, pondered for a moment, and then pushed it back.

"Instructor, there's no need to favor one over the other. Let's just forget about the 50."

Instructor Hong was taken aback. "You don't want it anymore?"

"Is it because Lin Lin didn't want it and you felt bad? Don't feel pressured, our leader can still afford this amount of money."

"Not because of this."

Lin Qiye calmly shook his head. "I don't accept money from soldiers."

Instructor Hong looked at him with some surprise, "Are you sure?"

"determine."

"Good, you've got guts!" Instructor Hong took the two envelopes back.

Lin Qiye turned his head and saw Lin Lin beside him, chin resting on his hand, looking at him with a deep, unsettling gaze.

"Seven Nights, do you really have to show off?"

Is this the level of bravado (or not bravado) that male protagonists in online novels possess?!

Lin Qiye paused for a second, then smiled:

Did you think I was handsome just now?

"..."

Damn it, we lost!

Damn it, when did he become so good at talking!

Lin Lin rolled her eyes at him and looked away.

Instructor Hong coughed and slowly reached for the small black box. "Ahem, since you don't want the money, then..."

Snapped--!

Lin Lin and Lin Qiye simultaneously placed their hands on the box.

"I don't want the money, and it didn't say I didn't want prohibited items."

Lin Lin spoke up immediately.

Lin Qiye nodded in agreement.

"Alright, just kidding."

Instructor Hong released his grip and chuckled, "Take it, this was specially chosen for you by the commander."

Lin Qiye opened the box directly, revealing a blue crystal stone inside that emitted a faint spiritual aura, while Lin Lin played with the small black box, showing no intention of opening it.

"The one from Qiye is the forbidden item [Azure Heart], specifically designed to resist mental attacks, and it's number 278 in the Forbidden Ruins sequence."

"Lin Lin, that's..."

"report!"

Lin Lin suddenly raised his hand.

"speak."

Instructor Hong raised an eyebrow.

Lin Lin spoke casually:

"Instructor, is this also a defensive forbidden item?"

"Yes."

"Instructor, I'd like to change the prohibited item."

Instructor Hong frowned slightly. "What do you want to change to?"

"Its defensive capabilities are actually quite good, and its offensive capabilities are also excellent."

"Um, instructor, I want the [True Word Ring] that you used during yesterday's extreme training."
