Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

Tonight seems a little different...

There were no whispers between young couples outside the dormitory building, no loud shouts from the dormitory aunties urging people to turn off the lights in the hallway, and even the senior student next door was unusually calm today, without his usual enthusiastic greetings...

Even the noisy cicadas outside the window have disappeared, and the early autumn heat in City A feels much less intense.

"What a perfect night to sleep..."

Xiao Yun wrapped herself tighter in the blanket and quickly drifted off to sleep in the cool air conditioning.

"Snoring—snoring—"

"What's going on? Is it thundering?"

Xiao Yun, who was immersed in a sweet dream, frowned and fumbled to put on earplugs.

It became much quieter immediately.

Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Her roommate Zhong Mo was a nice person, but his snoring was too loud.

Fortunately, after getting used to it for half a semester, I was able to fall asleep with earplugs.

With jumbled thoughts swirling in his mind, Xiao Yun drifted off to sleep.

"Snoring—snoring—roar—lou—"

For some reason, my roommate's snoring was unusually loud tonight, disturbing my peaceful sleep.

"well--"

Xiao Yun sighed, took off his earplugs, sat up, and looked helplessly at Zhong Mo, who was sleeping like a log.

I tried throwing a cushion at him, but Zhong Mo just shook his head and continued snoring loudly.

"It's no use, you can't wake up Fatty by patting his belly."

A soft laugh rang out from Wang Tianyuan in bed number one, while Ji Mingyu in bed number two cast a helpless smile at him.

In the darkness, the three exchanged a glance, each seeing the helplessness flickering in the other's eyes.

Actually, everyone had considered changing dorms, or even suggesting to the counselor that Zhong Mo be kicked out.

However, we've gotten along really well since the start of university, and Zhong Mo is also working hard to lose weight so that he won't ruin the friendship between the brothers over something trivial.

"Although Fatty snores loudly, he's kind."

Ji Mingyu smiled and waved his phone:

"People flatter each other, people flatter each other. Since we can't sleep together, let's not sleep together and instead climb the ranks."

"Yeah, at worst I can sleep in during the innovation and entrepreneurship class tomorrow morning."

Wang Tianyuan also became interested and opened his phone:

"Brother Yun is here too."

"No, I have an appointment to talk to Teacher Jiang about the competition tomorrow."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you're really something, you're going to drive us crazy."

Wang Tianyuan's words revealed a hint of sourness. After entering university, everyone gradually let themselves go, but Xiao Yun was the most unruly one.

"I already asked the seniors. Competitions can't be rushed. You're only a freshman. If Professor Jiang asks you to go, it'll just be to do odd jobs. Even if you win an award, your name will be at the very end of the list."

Speaking of this, Wang Tianyuan's voice was somewhat smug:

"I've already built good relationships with a few seniors. My dad knows that professor, and we had dinner together a few days ago to talk about this. He'll take me to competitions in the second semester of my freshman year... Don't worry, I'm not an ungrateful guy. I'll bring all my brothers along and we'll work together to win a national award."

"Alright, alright, Young Master Wang, we know you have a lot of connections, hurry up and start driving, stop dawdling."

"If Ayun isn't coming, that's fine. Making plans with the teacher for the competition is the important thing."

Ji Mingyu stepped in to defuse the situation, and Xiao Yun looked at him with gratitude.

Wang Tianyuan pursed his lips helplessly and said:

"Okay, you go first, I need to use the restroom."

As he spoke, he got out of bed and walked towards the bathroom on the balcony.

"Kidney deficiency..."

Ji Mingyu chuckled softly, then frowned as he looked at his phone:

"Strange, is the signal this bad tonight? Not a single bar... Damn campus network..."

Zhong Mo's snoring continued, Ji Mingyu fiddled with his phone, and Wang Tianyuan's slippers made a rhythmic thud as they were lifted onto the floor.

Xiao Yun plugged in her earplugs, trying to fall asleep.

"boom--"

The window suddenly made a loud noise, startling Wang Tianyuan, who had just stepped onto the balcony.

"Holy crap! What is that?!"

Wang Tianyuan cursed under his breath, then looked at the balcony window and suddenly froze.

"Holy crap! That's a huge bird!"

Wang Tianyuan looked out the window and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Holy crap! Where the hell am I?"

Xiao Yun and Ji Mingyu had already heard the commotion, so they both got out of bed and went to the balcony.

Immediately, both of them were stunned.

Outside the window, the dark jungle replaced the small square in front of the dormitory building, and the dark mountains in the distance replaced the teaching building.

The spot where the streetlights used to stand has been replaced by a tall old tree, with several pairs of eyes flashing red on its branches, which are particularly eerie in the moonless night.

"What...what is that? A crow?"

"Even ravens aren't this big..."

Xiao Yun's voice was hoarse as he looked at the unfamiliar campus and fell silent.

"Goodness gracious, what's going on? Am I dreaming? This dream is so real!"

"Seriously? Where's my huge teaching building? Where's the cafeteria? And I can't even see dormitory building number 2 next door?"

"Heh, you should be grateful that no facehuggers are attacking you in this situation."

After much adjustment, the three of them finally accepted reality.

Two minutes later, the snoring stopped abruptly.

"Hey... Fatty, wake up, we've traveled through time."

"Uh~?"

Zhong Mo was forcibly woken up and saw three people standing on his bed with flashlights, looking at him with serious expressions.

After confirming that it was not a dream or someone's prank, the four held a temporary strategy meeting.

"Brothers, the bad news is, we've been transported to another time..."

"The good news is that, so far, it seems we haven't crossed into the trenches with Warhammer, and there's still room for maneuver."

"oh!"

The group smiled upon hearing this, and after a few jokes, their mood improved slightly.

Having watched countless chuunibyou anime and time-travel novels, the group quickly accepted reality.

Just then, someone knocked on the dormitory door.

"Brothers in 301, are you awake yet...?"

The voice of Li Hao, a classmate from next door, rang out. The four of them exchanged glances, their expressions somewhat wary.

Zhong Mo, who was closest to the door, stood up, peered through the peephole, and nodded to the three of them.

"It's Li Hao."

The group breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and opened the door.

Seeing the four people walk out the door, the group led by Li Hao outside put down their weapons and breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Haoqian chuckled twice and said:

"It seems like we've encountered something like time travel! Everyone's awake, should we go downstairs and take a look?"

"Sure!"

Wang Tianyuan readily agreed and grabbed a broom, ready to join the team.

Ji Mingyu pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, clearly somewhat tempted.

Zhong Mo scratched his head, looked at the other brothers, and looked like he would go if they went.

Only Xiao Yun remained silent, not uttering a word.

Going out to explore sooner would have many benefits. At the very least, it would allow us to understand the characteristics of the world and see if we could find any supplies. After all, having suddenly transmigrated, the food stored in the dormitory was simply not enough to sustain four grown men for many days.

The risks are manageable. Although I just saw some giant bats or something outside the window, with so many people and skilled individuals carrying various equipment, we can handle most situations.

Overall, the rewards outweigh the risks...

Xiao Yun had made up his mind and was about to agree to Li Hao's request when a clear system notification sounded.

[Ding! Preview system activated]

[System Introduction: Three forecast messages are refreshed every day at midnight, revealing information such as resources, dangers, terrain, and events.]

Today's information has been updated.

[Omen 1: 1.5 kilometers to the southeast, there is a natural cave inhabited by many strange plants and animals. Among them is a fruit called "Earth Source Fruit" that tastes extremely disgusting and will cause the person to fall into a state of suspended animation for two hours after eating it, but it has a slight effect on improving physical constitution.]

[Second omen: One kilometer to the northeast, there is a lake called Starlight Lake. Beside the lake is a blank stone tablet. Offering incense and reciting the name of "Xuanhuang Fusheng Tianzun" will grant you a treasure.]

Xiao Yun was overjoyed. Looking at the first two trailers, he couldn't wait to explore them.

But suddenly, a line of blood-red characters appeared.

[In the dense forest 500 meters to the northwest, there is a [unidentified creature] wandering around. It is extremely dangerous at night! Please do not approach!]

"How about it, Brother Yun? Let's go take a look. There are so many of us, with powerful flashlights, and some of the guys even brought steel bars and knives. We'll just go downstairs and take a look around. Nothing will happen."

Li Hao extended another invitation, even showing off a composite bow.

They were all young men in their early twenties, fresh out of university, and together they encountered a legendary event like time travel, making it hard for them to contain their curiosity.

"Holy crap, you have this stuff too. Let me use it later. Damn, that bird outside scared me half to death. I'll have to teach it a lesson."

Wang Tianyuan excitedly took a step forward, ready to join the team.

But the next second, Xiao Yun stretched out his arm and stopped him.

"Sorry, we won't join in the fun."

Xiao Yun smiled at everyone and explained:

"It's late at night, and we don't know anything about the forest and valley outside. It's better to be safe."

"I understand."

Li Hao smiled, did not insist, and led everyone downstairs.

In the darkness, Xiao Yun seemed to hear a contemptuous laugh.

Xiao Yun ignored them, shook his head slightly, and led the three puzzled people back to their dormitory, closing the door behind them.

"Why don't you go down and take a look?"

Wang Tianyuan frowned, looking displeased.

If Xiao Yun hadn't held him back so tightly, he would have already gone out on an adventure with the main group.

"Li Hao is right. There are many of us, and we have some basic equipment. We should be fine just wandering around downstairs. Even if we do encounter wild animals, at worst we can escape back."

Ji Mingyu echoed, saying that in his opinion, the benefits of going out to investigate tonight would definitely outweigh the risks.

"I've read novels like this. They're usually survival stories. Getting information early allows you to seize resources and gain an advantage. Maybe you can even get equipment by killing a bat or a rat at night."

Even the usually honest and simple-minded Zhong Mo voiced his objection, which made Xiao Yun shake his head and smile wryly.

Does he not know the benefits of going out to investigate sooner? But... if he goes out tonight, he'll die...
