I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!-Chapter 260 - 196: Elective Course! Strategist Profession!

Chapter 260: Chapter 196: Elective Course! Strategist Profession!

The first elective course quickly came to an end, leaving Zheng Cheng and the others wanting more.

In this class, not only did they learn macro military strategies, but they also gained insight into many secrets of the Great Catastrophe Era, which broadened their horizons.

After class, Teacher Bai Bin intentionally asked Zheng Cheng and another student, Chu He, to stay behind.

Teacher Bai Bin said, “Zheng Cheng, Chu He, you two are probably the most outstanding students among those I’ve taught in this intake. If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask me.”

“Alright, Teacher Bai.”

“There’s something else.” Teacher Bai Bin continued, “I need a representative for military strategy to assist me in managing these students. Normally, you can receive aid from me, and even join me in studying classic battles from the Alien Battlefield, as well as providing some military actions for the army.”

“You two can consider who’s interested, and you can sign up with me later.”

The two men exchanged a glance, about to say something, but were interrupted by Teacher Bai Bin, “Don’t rush to make a decision, go home and think about it.”

“If you decide to go all-in on military strategy, the time and opportunity to enhance your personal skills will inevitably decrease. As professionists, you must think this through clearly.”

“No need to think about it, Teacher Bai.” Chu He took the initiative to reply, “I want to focus primarily on improving my own abilities, military strategy is just an interest of mine.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go first.”

After bidding them goodbye with a nod, he turned and left.

Chu He certainly has a strong character, thought Zheng Cheng.

“Sigh…”

Teacher Bai Bin shook his head and turned to Zheng Cheng, “Zheng Cheng, what about you?”

Instead, Zheng Cheng asked, “Teacher Bai, do you know Chu He? What’s his story?”

Teacher Bai Bin nodded, “He is the grandson of a good friend of mine.”

“Teacher Bai, I have a question if you don’t mind clarifying.”

“Sure.”

“We’ve only met twice, yet you have a high regard for me, why is this?”

Teacher Bai Bin laughed, “It’s simple, not everyone can be selected as my student. I have studied some of your previous dungeon raids and secret realm explorations.”

“Particularly your strategic intent and execution in the Radiation Island campaign, they meet my selection criteria, that’s why I chose you.”

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flashed with realization, “Is it the same for Chu He?”

“Chu He…” Bai Bin shook his head, “He actually hails from the Outer Realm, one of the Alien Battlefields. His parents and relatives all perished in the beast tides.”

“For this, he has sworn to kill all alien beings from the Outer Realm, but it’s a pity that as a five-star strategist professionist, his ability to improve his own strength is limited.”

“He’s actually a very smart kid, he once schemed and killed a squad of aliens, however…”

“A five-star professionist, a strategist?”

Zheng Cheng had a realization, this profession was the same of Lin Shanyue, the commander-in-chief of the Northwestern Army.

“Correct.”

Teacher Bai Bin nodded, “A strategist is a purely assistive profession. They can use abilities like ‘Morale’ and ‘Formation’ to lead soldiers in battle, and they have a special ‘strategist’s plan’, however, their personal strength is quite weak.”

“Yet Chu He intends to use his own strength to avenge his family. He has chosen the wrong path.”

“If he truly wants to avenge his family, he should become a leading general. They too can avenge their family in that role!”

Zheng Cheng got the hint, “Teacher Bai, you’re telling me all this because you need a favor from me, right?”

Teacher Bai Bin chuckled, “No wonder you’re the smart one. I hope you can help Chu He.”

Zheng Cheng felt helpless, “But how can I help?”

“You’re a three-star priest professionist true, but your personal strength is formidable.” said Teacher Bai Bin, “Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that there are secrets that belong to you.”

Zheng Cheng became alert, “Teacher Bai?”

“Hehe, don’t worry.” Teacher Bai Bin laughed, “Which professionist doesn’t have a few tricks up their sleeve?”

“Heritage crystal? Guidance from the soul of a strong being? Inheritance from predecessors, etc., I’ve seen it all.”

“Plus, you’re a human being, not a spy of different races or a fallen one, no one will do anything to you.”

“These secrets will allow you to make exponential progress in the early stages, overtaking most people of your age.”

“However, once you reach the epic level, it’s a massive watershed.”

“Those of you who have received external assistance would have unstable foundations and are likely to fail when trying to advance to the epic level.”

“Hence, it’s best to establish a solid foundation at the lower levels, instead of rushing.”

Zheng Cheng remained silent for a moment before respectfully saying, “Thank you for the reminder, Teacher Bai. I have learned a valuable lesson.”

“As for Chu He…” Teacher Bai Bin spoke, “You’re trying to qualify for one of the ten potential dragons, correct? If you’re successful, I hope you can invite Chu He to join your team.”

“I hope under your influence, he can gradually correct his path.”

Zheng Cheng nodded, “Alright, Teacher Bai, I’ll try.”

Teacher Bai Bin took out his phone, “I’ll send you his contact information. You young people can get in touch with each other.”

“Alright.”

After bidding farewell to Teacher Bai Bin and leaving the classroom, Zheng Cheng found that Chu He was nowhere to be found.

He shrugged, sent a friend request, and seeing no response, let the matter lie.

“Brother Cheng! Over here!”

The Zhuo brothers were waving at him from a flower bed in the distance. Walking over, Zheng Cheng curiously asked, “What’s up, what are you guys looking at?”

“Pretty girls!”

Looking in the direction they were pointing, it wasn’t hard to find a group of girls excitedly discussing something as they headed toward a distant classroom.

Graceful, youthful, and vibrant.

“Wow! The girls in our school are so beautiful!”

“Brother Cheng, I think I’m in love.”

“Get lost!” laughed Zheng Cheng. “It seems you two are in love. By the way, have you guys met Chu He?”

Zhuo Wen questioned, “Who’s Chu He? Some beauty?”

Zhuo Wu, however, interjected, “Brother Cheng, is it that student with black hair and black-framed glasses?”

“Yeah, where is he?”

“Haven’t seen him for a while,” shrugged Zhuo Wu. “He left quickly, seemed to be headed towards the holographic simulation classroom.”

“It’s strange that he’s a professionist, but why is he still wearing glasses for shortsightedness?”

“Yeah, seems like he’s the only one wearing glasses in the whole school…”

As the two continued to chat, Zheng Cheng murmured:

“The holographic simulation classroom, huh?”

The so-called holographic simulation classroom uses the latest holographic simulation technology to construct a realistic holographic simulation battlefield.

Professionists can wear special gear to experience the real battlefield environment, and then train.

There are wars and battles, as well as individual combat training, which is quite popular among students.

Zheng Cheng smirked, “An oddball indeed… An assist professionist running off to gain real combat experience…”

Zhuo Wen curiously asked, “Brother Cheng, why are you looking for him?”

“Nothing much, just an extra assignment from Teacher Bai,” Zheng Cheng shook his head. “Let’s get something to eat first, we still have a second elective course after.”

The second elective course was “On the Prospects of Combat Priests (Festivities, Doctors)”!

The location for the lecture was a large sports field.

Mostly male students chose this elective, and their professor was a burly man.

“My name is Huang Tai, your close combat training instructor.”

“As we all know, an assist professionist’s role is to support the main combat professionist, their own combat abilities aren’t that strong.”

“However, there are often situations where beasts or different races break through the frontline of the main combat professionists and get to us, the assist professionists.”

“So, what do we do in these situations? Run away? Surrender? Beg for mercy?”

“No! None of that!”

Huang Tai shouted, “Run away? How can an assist professionist ever outrun a different race?”

“Surrender? You’ll either be killed or turned into their food!”

“And if you beg for mercy… If I find out, I’ll be the one to kill you!”

“What we have to do in such a situation is to fight back, even to the death!”

“Even if we die, we will never surrender to the different races!”

“For this reason, I have specially applied for this elective course, ‘On the Prospects of Combat Priests (Festivities, Doctors)’, to teach you close combat skills!”

Huang Tai waved his hand and several workers wheeled in a cart.

“These are the weapons prepared for you. They are small and exquisite, easy to carry and hard to detect, and also extremely lethal!”

Looking at the array of weapons, Zheng Cheng and the others found that most of them were short-ranged, such as daggers, military spikes, water-dividing spikes, and other close combat weapons.

What’s more, these weapons were configured with blood grooves!

Zheng Cheng even spotted knuckle dusters among the assortment.

“For the next semester, I will be teaching you to familiarise yourselves with these weapons, and then introduce you to the common weak points of different races,” Huang Tai continued.

“Once you hit these vital points, even as an assist professionist, you can deal a lethal blow!”

“If possible, I would advise you to purchase some high-quality weapons that could give a stronger blow!”

As priests, you can also equip short-ranged weapons like daggers and military spikes.

Of course, they can’t activate any special attributes of these equipments and can only use them as ordinary weapons.

Subsequently, Teacher Huang showed everyone the sharpness of these close-combat weapons.

A dagger whirled up and down in his hand, constantly flashing, moving at lightning-fast speed.

In just a few seconds, the wooden target was stabbed more than ten times.

The wounds were mostly in vital areas like the neck, abdomen, solar plexus, temples, and so on.

This way of teaching got the male students very excited and their breathing fast.

Especially the Zhuo brothers.

What man would want to be a simple support professionist? freewebnøvel.coɱ

What they all longed for was the excitement of close combat.

Worth mentioning was that Chu He also attended this elective course and listened more attentively than anyone else.

Zheng Cheng didn’t take the initiative to approach him, and Chu He was equally engrossed in Teacher Huang’s class.

Soon, the two-hour class ended and the students, despite wanting more, were constantly practicing what they had learned while on their way out.

Watching Chu He hurry off, Zheng Cheng was full of doubts.

What’s this kid rushing off to do every day?

Zhuo Wen asked, “Brother Cheng! The third elective course is at eight tonight, are you going?”

“Of course.”

Zhuo Wu looked perplexed, “Why is this elective at eight in the evening? And the location is a bit odd, too.”

“Oh? Where is it?”

“The school’s backstage, at a slaughterhouse.”

“A slaughterhouse?”
