<h4>Chapter 147: The Secret of Section B (3)</h4>


    Gu Yi jogged to the door and turned the doorknob.


    Before him was a small room, about three meters square, with a ss showcase in the center containing a dark, opaque sphere.


    Gu Yi touched the ss case.


    The ss instantly shattered.


    "What is this thing?"


    Gu Yi reached out and touched the ck sphere. Suddenly, his mind went nk, as if he had entered a deep meditative state.


    When he regained his thoughts, he found himself in the toilet of his dormitory.


    "What''s going on? I remember I... seemed to have picked up something in Section B?"


    Gu Yi furrowed his brows and looked at his right hand. A circle of ck runes appeared in his palm, identical in design to the mysterious magic circle on the bookshelf.


    However, when Gu Yi focused his consciousness on his palm, the runes immediately disappeared.


    "What the hell is this?"


    Gu Yi remained deeply puzzled.


    After all the effort and risk to his life, he hadn''t acquired any plot-rted item, only a mysterious tattoo that appeared without exnation, and he had no idea how to use it.


    This left Gu Yi feeling powerless, as if he had thrown a punch into cotton.


    Exhausted, he leaned against the wall to return to his dormitory and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.


    ...


    "What just happened?"


    "Why did the live broadcast suddenly go ck?"


    "Eh? How did Gu Yi end up back in the dorm sleeping?"


    "Did we miss something?"


    The audience was clearly confused, discussing in the barrage.


    Just like Chris, Gu Yi had arrived at the huge stone door of Section B and resolutely walked through it. However, as soon as he stepped through the door, the live broadcast screen went ck.


    The ckout didn''tst long, only about two or three minutes.


    When the live broadcast resumed, Gu Yi was already asleep in his dormitory bed.


    Qu Kangping was full of questions, "What happened? Instant teleportation?"


    Dark Moon didn''t respond. He nced at his watch, yawned, and said, "Time''s up, we should go to sleep."


    "Huh?"


    Qu Kangping turned to look at Dark Moon, only to find him standing and sleeping like a horse, his snores growing louder and louder.


    The other audience members of the Dark Moon Circus also retreated to their respective tents, leaving no one loitering outside. A few clowns gathered behind Qu Kangping and the others and made a gesture of invitation.


    The Dark Moon Circus had many weird rules, and the strategy team dared not vite them, especially since they relied on the power of the circus leader Dark Moon to avoid being hunted.


    They left the screening hall in line and returned to their base.


    ...


    In the Weird world.


    The next day.


    Gu Yi woke up from his bed, and upon opening his eyes, he was greeted with a barrage of abusive messages.


    In the past few days, such messages had gradually decreased to the point where Gu Yi could almost ignore them. To his surprise, he woke up today to see so many distastefulments.


    "Is there some trouble in the real world?"


    Gu Yi frowned but soon decided not to worry too much about it.


    He had no reach in the real world and couldn''t do anything about it. His only focus now was to find a way to safelyplete the dungeon.


    After washing up, refilling his fountain pen, and having breakfast, Gu Yi was the first to wait silently on the first floor of the dormitory.


    He leaned against the vending machine, staring nkly at the palm of his right hand.


    The thing from yesterday must have a special function; he just hadn''t figured out how to use it yet.


    What puzzled Gu Yi even more was the fact that the ck sphere hidden so deeply in Section B and was so difficult to obtain, didn''t trigger any system notification at all.


    "What are you daydreaming about?" Chen Zeyu stood beside Gu Yi, his face indifferent. "Still feeling guilty for abandoning your family?"


    "It''s none of your business."


    "The first three subjects were just warm-ups. Thest two are the hardest subjects at Wapeng High School. Don''t get eliminated now, especially since you''re the only one here I can somewhat rte to."


    "Rte to? Hmph…" Gu Yi sneered coldly, "I really don''t want to have any connection with you."


    <i>Ding-ding-ding—</i>


    The dormitory supervisor appeared again in front of everyone, pulling out a register and reading off twenty names.


    "Those who I just called, step forward."


    The twenty people whose names were called stepped forward with grim expressions, including the tall and strong Gao brothers.


    "You twenty are currently at the bottom of the exam scores. You will be leaving Wapeng Middle School without graduating. You may now go to the academic affairs office to receive your academic certificates."


    The twenty students exchanged looks, but instead of being upset, they happily ran out.


    For them, anything was better than being expelled, even leaving school without graduating was a good deal.


    The dormitory supervisor looked at the remaining students and continued, "In the next two days, we''ll have thest two subjects of our exam. Everyone still standing here has done remarkably well. Now, follow the usual procedure, one by one."


    Chen Zeyu nced at Gu Yi and was the first to approach the supervisor, "I choose to give up my mother."


    "Good, go on in."


    Chen Zeyu nodded and headed toward the examination room.


    Whether you stick your neck out or not, the result is the same.


    Gu Yi, steeling himself, was the second to walk up to the dormitory supervisor.


    "Who do you choose to give up?"


    "My... my mother."


    "Ah... a wise choice," said the dormitory supervisor coldly. "Your mother would be proud of you."


    Gu Yi bit his lip, using psychological suggestion on himself to try and calm his emotions, but no matter how hard he tried, tears still flowed.


    "Team leader... Brother Ah Jian, I can only rely on you now."


    ...


    The Lighthouse Country was in chaos.


    Just after the former strategy team leader Anderson turned to stone, a wave of armed protests demanding freedom of speech and the end ofment censorship erupted within the country.


    The government was in disarray, and even the usually calm president turned pale overnight.


    "Ah... how is Anderson doing?"


    "He''s been dered dead," said the new team leader, Roger. "Mr. President, I suggest you take refuge in our base. Professor Scranton believes that you might be the next target Chris gives up."


    "F*ck!"


    Cursing loudly, the president threw down his pen and followed Team Leader Roger to the base. Hey in the stabilizing anchor that looked like a coffin and fell into a deep sleep.


    The strategy team members closely watched the screen. Chris was now standing in front of the dormitory supervisor.


    "Child, it''s your turn now. Who do you want to give up?"


    "The President of the Lighthouse Country."


    "Hmm... you don''t have any direct rtion to him."


    "Ah, but in a way, he''s my savior.


    If it weren''t for his signing of the amendment order, my drunk driving manughter case might not have been just ten or twenty years. I might have faced a hundred years in prison.


    So, I must thank him."


    "Well, there seems to be some connection there. You can go."


    Chris turned and walked towards the academic building.


    In the Lighthouse Country''s strategy team base, a series of weird events suddenly unfolded. Countless weird creatures materialized out of thin air andunched ferocious attacks on them.


    Meanwhile, the presidenty sleeping in the Scranton Stabilizer,pletely unaware of the dangers unfolding outside.
