NOVEL NEXT Chapter 38
The Deal
G City, No. 3 High School, Year 3 Class 1.
A smart-looking woman with a high ponytail was sitting on the podium and watching a video.
Although it was already late at night, as the form teacher, she couldn’t leave the place.
In order to prevent the students who had been teleported back from the secret realm from needing help, every classroom had to be guarded by a teacher.
As a Rank 3 profession class holder, not sleeping for a few days was not a big problem, but staying up late still made her unhappy.
To her, there was no need to do so.
As the class formed after the class change, their class included the most outstanding students of No. 3 High School.
It was all for the sake of getting good results in the college entrance examination.
It was the same for the mock exam.
And for the first time in history, this test even offered epic equipment as a reward.
From her point of view, the rewards of this examination were simply in the bag of their class.
Especially the few rare profession class holders from No. 1, No. 2, and No. 4 High Schools. After inexplicably getting the first clear of a new dungeon, no one was qualified to compete with their class.
‘I have the advantage!’
As she was thinking, she suddenly heard a few muffled groans.
‘Which class’s unlucky fellow returned so quickly?’ she thought.
Very quickly, she realized that something was wrong.
These sounds seemed to be coming from her ears…
The white and thin Assassin who could still speak said, “Teacher, quickly call the school doctor…”
In the school doctor’s office, the form teacher of Class 1 looked at the four people lying on the bed with a dark expression.
The four’s legs had already been treated by the school doctor’s Limb Recovery skill. However, it would take at least a week for them to fully recover. By then, the college entrance exam would have finished.
Even if they managed to participate, their condition would definitely affect their exam results.
Moreover, from the looks of it, it must be man-made!
She desperately wanted to know who was behind all this!
She wanted that person to pay the price!
…
Wang Yu came to the river where he had fished yesterday and found a group of people gathered together.
It looked like they were discussing how to cross the river.
Seeing Wang Yu’s arrival, a student with gold-rimmed glasses, who looked like an old cadre, walked over and said, “Hey, are you planning to cross the river too?”
Wang Yu nodded.
“Why don’t we go together? The more the safer,” the old-looking student said directly.
Wang Yu looked at the ten people and said, “Isn’t this an illegal team? The rules state that only four people are allowed in a pair.”
“We’re just crossing the river together, not forming a team to kill monsters,” the old-looking student explained with a smile.
“Forget it.” Wang Yu shook his head.
The old-looking student tried to persuade him. “You don’t know this, but there’s a type of black water crocodile living in the river. They have rough skin and thick flesh. They’re extremely fierce and hard to deal with.”
“It’s precisely because of this that we’re gathered together so that we can look out for each other.”
Wang Yu still shook his head. The old-looking student sighed and stopped trying to persuade him.
Wang Yu came to the river and was about to form an ice path when he suddenly thought of something and went to find the old-looking student.
“Did you change your mind?” the old-looking student asked.
“No.” Wang Yu directly explained his intention, “What do you think of a deal?”
“What deal?”
“I’ll help you cross the river. 50 points for each of you. How about it?”
“You?” The old-looking student was stunned and didn’t believe Wang Yu.
“It’s me.” Wang Yu snapped his fingers, and a thick layer of ice formed on a large piece of water by the river. It was a full meter in size.
Wang Yu’s move had shocked everyone. The old-looking student no longer doubted Wang Yu’s ability to send them to the other side.
“But, 50 points is too much.” The old-looking student looked troubled.
They hadn’t killed many monsters in a day and a night, so 50 points were simply too much for them.
“Not much.” Wang Yu shook his head. “You want to cross the river. I’m sure you know that there aren’t many monsters in the outer area, right?”
“When you get to the other side of the river, I think you have two days and one night left. The number of monsters killed should be more than 50 points.”
The old-looking student thought for a moment and felt that it was indeed reasonable, so he got up to discuss with those people.
When everyone heard that there was a safe way to cross the river, they were a little excited. However, after hearing Wang Yu’s asking price, they all looked troubled.
In fact, Wang Yu could have snatched the points away from these people, but Wang Yu thought that they were all classmates and commoners. They were not rich, and this examination was a rare opportunity, so he left them a chance.
While they were discussing, a few more people came, and the number of people exceeded 20.
A hotheaded young man stood out and said, “We’re all classmates, and we should help each other. You’re taking advantage of the situation! You’re too much!”
Wang Yu rolled his eyes at him and said, “Am I your father or your mother?”
“What do you mean?” The hothead was stunned.
“In this world, other than your father and mother, no one has the obligation to help you for free, understand?” Wang Yu replied.
“But we’re classmates!” that person said.
“And then?” Wang Yu was unmoved.
The man was speechless and could only return angrily.
At this moment, two more beautiful girls came out and said sweetly, “Little brother~”
Wang Yu didn’t wait for them to continue speaking and said, “50. I’ll double it if you keep talking!”
Women would only affect the speed at which he could draw his sword!
The two of them opened their mouths, not knowing if they should say or not.
Seeing that they were still talking, Wang Yu said, “I’ll wait for another three minutes. I won’t wait if you’re late.”
As soon as Wang Yu said that, those people finally made up their minds. In the end, five or six people handed in their points.
The others planned to cross the river with their own boats, while the rest planned to wait and see.
The people who handed in the points first were a little regretful and cursed themselves for not paying attention. However, what happened next made them feel lucky.
Before the wooden boat could travel ten meters, it was split into two by the tail of a Blackwater Armored Crocodile that suddenly appeared.
If it wasn’t for the rescue from the people on the shore, one or two of them would have died there.
The Blackwater Armored Crocodile wanted to catch up to the shore, but it was frozen to death by Wang Yu’s finger.
Another 50 points.
After this, no one mentioned anything about swimming across the river anymore, and they all handed in their points.
Apart from the two of them, judging from how sneaky they were, they probably didn’t have any good intentions.
Wang Yu ignored them and went straight to the river. He stretched out his hand and pointed. A three-meter-wide and one-meter-thick ice road spread on the water’s surface, leading to the other side.
Seeing Wang Yu’s move, the crowd didn’t even feel the heartache of losing 50 points.
Just as they were about to go up, the two people who had been watching from the side moved. They stepped onto the ice and rushed to the other side.
Wang Yu was waiting for them. The two of them had only taken a few steps before their legs were stuck on the ice.
“100 points,” Wang Yu said as he walked over.
“Wasn’t it 50 points just now…” Before one of them could finish his sentence, he was kicked down by Wang Yu.
Seeing this, the other player quickly took out 100 points.
By the time the person in the water reached the shore, everyone had already left, and the ice road was melting rapidly in front of him.
He was left alone on the shore, remorseful, helpless, and angry…
There was no danger along the way, and even the crocodiles that were caught by surprise became Wang Yu’s points.
He took points from others and helped them get rid of disasters.
When they reached the shore, everyone parted ways.
Before Wang Yu could take more than a few steps, a voice came from behind him, and then four or five people surrounded him.
“Fellow student, it’s not appropriate to leave just like this, right?” A faint voice was heard.
