Chapter 137 -125: The Remaining Knowledge Illusion, Bennett’s Badge_1

[You have entered the Doomsday Chapter]

[Chapter 82740874]

[An ordinary Wandering Soul awakens in an ancient auditorium…]

Lin Xun opens his item panel and sees a piece of equipment dropped by a fighter.

[‘Tiger Beast King Belt’ (Rare+ Level Equipment). A wide belt with yellow and black stripes, crafted from the slaughter of hundreds of tigers, and the essence of their flesh and soul. Wearing this gear will slightly enhance the strength of your shell.]

The equipment’s effect can enhance the strength of the shell, making it perfect for Earth Giants, who focus on strength stats for their shell.

He equips the Earth Giant with the belt.

Unfortunately, the belt does not adjust to the size of the shell.

When the shell of the Earth Giant grows larger, the belt will be pushed aside, losing its strength-boosting effect.

“I’ll try at the library later, buy some materials, and see if the blacksmith can modify this equipment.”

Currently, Lin Xun’s soul strength is 3/3, and his knowledge is 205/600.

The procedure within the teaching building had already been explored last time.

[You have possessed the ‘curious six-eyed student of the Polyvision School’ shell.]

After implanting an extra pair of eyes into Lily, the shell’s name consequently changed.

He instructs Lily to prepare to exit the teaching building.

[You push the large doors of the lecture classrooms, stepping into an empty corridor, where the wandering students have vanished…]

[With your six eyes peering around, you notice something unusual in one of the classrooms.]

[Do you want to check it out?]

Lin Xun raises an eyebrow.

With a decisive click, he selects ‘Yes’.

[You lift the hem of your robe, cautiously making your way towards the classroom…]

[You slowly push the slightly open door.]

[You have entered the ‘Remnant Knowledge Illusion’…]

Remnant Knowledge Illusion?

What the hell is that?

[Everything in the classroom has a ghostly double vision. It’s like a blotchy, yellowed memory.]

[The classroom is filled with dozens of ‘Curious Polyvision School’ students.]

[Their empty eye sockets gaze at the test papers on their desks as their quills hover, unable to make a mark.]

[A hunched figure robed in white moves among the students…]

[When it sees a student who will not write, it raises the thick teaching whip in its hand, smashing the student’s head to pieces. It yells out chaotic phrases, seemingly reprimanding the unambitious student.]

[The Principal of Dis Academy turned its head towards you, the numerous eyes on its pale face opening all at once.]

[It sternly commands you to join the examination. Your performance in this examination is crucial for winning a generous scholarship, a golden opportunity for common students.]

[Empty-headed Apostle, what will you do?]

[1. Being a poor student, you decide to skip class without heeding the principal’s command, exit the classroom, slam the classroom door shut, and leave your classmates your cool and stunning back view, along with a disciplinary notice.]

[2. Being an excellent student, you decide to take the exam. Follow the principal’s summons, enter the classroom, find a desk and start writing. Depending on your knowledge, strive to top the class and earn the scholarship.]

[3. Being a bully, you decide to lash out. Kick open the classroom door, loudly declare, ‘I hate exams!’ and beat the principal and your classmates to death right there, giving up the opportunity to earn the scholarship.]

Lin Xun has long been accustomed to the absurd options in the underworld game.

This ‘Remnant Knowledge Illusion’ is probably a hidden reward event.

From the text, it can be deduced that all people and things in it are probably illusions.

He assumes he needs to pass the exam to unlock the event reward.

He selects the second option without hesitation.

He does not know if Lily has absorbed enough knowledge to pass the exam and receive the scholarship.

[At the principal’s summons, you quickly enter the classroom, find an empty desk and sit down.]

[The Principal of Dis Academy puts an exam paper in front of you and warns you against cheating, otherwise, it will let you taste its thick teaching whip.]

[Under the principal’s watchful gaze, you prepare to start writing, but discover there are no writing materials on the desk.]

[Looking at another student’s desk, one student lies dead with their head smashed and fluids spewing out on the table which holds an exam paper and a quill.]

[Just as you are about to reach for it, the thick teaching whip lashes your arm.]

[The Principal of Dis Academy warns you to stop looking at other students, otherwise, you will be found cheating and disqualified from the exam.]

[Looking at the exam paper in front of you, you fall into a predicament commonly described as ‘a talented woman lacking rice to cook’…]

The text stops here.

Lin Xun smirks, rendering such trivial tricks futile.

Opening the item panel, he rumbles through it for a while.

He finds an item in a corner, a piece of junk he found when searching the classroom upon entering this chapter.

[‘Decayed Quill’ (Junk). The tip of the quill is sealed with dried black ink inside the pen tube.]

As he clicks the junk item, the text continues to display.

[You pull out a quill from under your skirt and start to speedwrite…]

[Your wealth of knowledge is abundant, solving the difficult questions on the exam paper is a piece of cake for you.]

[Your knowledge limit exceeds 100, 20% of the exam paper has been completed.]

[…]

[Your knowledge limit exceeds 200, 40% of the exam paper has been completed.]

[…]

[Your knowledge limit exceeds 300, 60% of the exam paper has been completed.]

…

[Your knowledge limit exceeds 500, the exam paper has been 100% completed.]

[You raise your hand to signal, you have completed the exam paper.]

[The Principal of Dis Academy walks towards you, picks up the exam paper and begins to read it…]

[After a while, it sets down the exam paper, nodding in satisfaction.]

[The Principal of Dis Academy, while facing the other failing students in the classroom, raises its teaching whip and smashes their empty heads one by one.]

[It arrives at the classroom doorstep, signaling you to follow its footsteps and receive your scholarship for being an honor student.]

[You follow it all the way to the ground floor of the teaching building, then into a basement lab…]

[The Principal of Dis Academy opens a secret compartment under the experimental platform, inside which is a brass badge.]

[It hands you the badge. Its figure dissolves with the wind, the illusion shatters and disappears…]

[You have obtained ‘Bennett’s Souvenir Badge’ (Key)]

Lin Xun had searched the basement lab before but found no hidden compartment.

If he hadn’t taken the exam, the reward would have completely slipped by him.

He immediately checks the item panel.

[‘Bennett’s Souvenir Badge’ (Key), a small badge cast in brass. Engraved on the badge are two eyeballs and a scalpel. Hand this item to ‘Bennett,’ and you will receive an unexpected benefit.]

His eyes narrowed; this is the umpteenth time he’s come across the name ‘Bennett’

The character is probably of significant importance in this chapter.

[As you arrive inside the grand hall on the ground floor of the teaching building, you see a heavy metal door ahead. Upon pushing this door open, you can leave the teaching building…]

[Do you wish to leave the teaching building, or do you wish to stay and continue exploring?]

[You push open the heavy metal door slowly…]
