The Duke looked at the performance of the two at the start of the game, his chubby face squeezed into a mass. He had thought that a difficulty level of [9] would intimidate them somewhat; even if they managed to get through, they should at least lose a layer of skin or break a few bones, laying the groundwork for the gradually escalating difficulties of the orphanage gambling games. But who knew, one human and one patient actually coordinated to such an extent that beyond some frostbite, they bore no other injuries. “This little guy, who was transformed and born from the human world and is related to celestial phenomena, has transcended the usual [Open Source standards] and is even more formidable than the Open Sourcerers who were directly born from our side during the normal course of the world. ... And he just so happens to be ‘Patient Zero,’ not subject to any control. Lucky for me, I caught him early on. Now, let’s see if this guy has what it takes to trade for the Moonlight Greatsword that has been looking for a user.” The Duke didn’t mind, This betting game was set up based on Yi Chen’s memory at short notice, so it’s normal for the difficulty assessment to have issues, but winning the bet would still require some effort. Later on, he could turn the ‘New World Betting Game’ they went through into a full-clearance video stored in the ‘Memory Spore’ and sell it for a high price to various big names for their enjoyment. As long as it’s exciting enough, paired with the brand new world inside Yi Chen’s memory, it would definitely fetch a good price. … Black Mountain Orphanage, Comprehensive Teacher – [Cao Zhenghong] Her prototype was exactly the director and life teacher of the orphanage Yi Chen had been in before his death, and to some extent could even be considered his ‘foster mother.’ From the moment Yi Chen was conscious, he was in the orphanage, and he even suspected that he was born there… He had always followed Director Cao until he was five years old, with everything from his diet to lifestyle, to interest cultivation and advanced education personally overseen by the director. Whenever the young Yi Chen scored high in intelligence or physical fitness tests, he would even receive gifts from the director. The age of five was a boundary. Yi Chen officially began to receive the [Education] of the orphanage and gradually saw the true face of Teacher Cao. No matter the activity, he would receive special attention from Director Cao, Who, while having higher expectations, would also prevent Yi Chen from sustaining irreversible physical punishments, inflicting more of a mental torture instead. Any peers, particularly girls, who got close to Yi Chen would be targeted. Once they made a mistake, they would be dealt with immediately, and Director Cao would even personally push Yi Chen to the scene of the punishment to witness the entire process. This was why Yi Chen only kept company with rats and avoided contact with anyone else, and why all his subsequent escape plans were [for one person only]. Similarly, Thanks to Director Cao’s introduction, Yi Chen had the fortune to visit the upper echelons of the orphanage under ‘Full Restraint’ – his eyes and mouth sealed with tape, with only his nostrils left open for breathing and his ears to hear sounds. There he overheard many voices and ultimately received a proposal from the upper echelons. As long as Yi Chen could maintain high standards, upon turning eighteen and passing the qualification test in the orphanage, he could officially become a teacher there, and he might even replace Director Cao’s position. But Yi Chen couldn’t wait; he just wanted to escape as soon as possible and come back with outside help to kill Director Cao. … “Huff!” Yi Chen sat up abruptly from the soft and spacious bed, instinctively firing a strand of plants from his palm. Unfortunately, the tender green roots hit the wall directly, missing any dangerous targets… and because of the weakening of his ability, it only slightly tore the wallpaper. ⱤἈƝÒ????Ěş At that moment, a familiar voice came from the other side of the room. “Hey~ Haven’t you snapped out of your emotions yet? It’s clear you harbor a deep-seated hatred for that old woman, but you’re too impulsive. I was never as agitated as you when I faced Doctor Macaul (founder of Twilight Clinic). Emotional control is very important, and meaningless venting, even if you really kill the other person, will only leave you feeling empty. You need to adjust your state well and find the best way to deal with it. To be honest, I’m quite disappointed with you on this.” Moon Trace Lorrian was sitting on another bed in the double room, holding a contemporary book titled “To the Moon,” and throughout his speech, his gaze remained fixed on the lines of the book, deeply engrossed in the story. Faced with Moon Trace Lorrian’s rebuke, Yi Chen readily accepted it, “It’s my problem… sorry.” “If there’s a problem, correct it. If that doesn’t work, after we get out, it’s okay for the doctor trained by me to perform a brain surgery on you to curb your impulsive emotions.” By the way, remember to take a look at the rules posted on the door. It will determine whether you can win the bet. We’re really quite lucky, the low points giving us access to this quality bedroom makes me quite satisfied. Even staying here for ten days or half a month is absolutely no problem.” “The rules? Okay… wow, my neck hurts.” Yi Chen rubbed his sore and swollen neck, even feeling like his third cervical vertebra was about to dislocate. Just getting out of bed, he found a “suitcase” placed by the window, which only contained a student’s suit. The axe and firearms provided at the start had been taken away. As Moon Trace Lorrian said, this high-quality double room obtained with a dice roll of [3] was quite good, fifty square meters with an en-suite bathroom, a ventilation system, and a temperature sensor air conditioner, and also equipped with a wall of books for leisure and a source of drinking water. Such living conditions were something Yi Chen had never experienced in his past memories. Moving to the front door, the rules posted on it immediately made Yi Chen recall the past feeling. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. [Orphanage Daily Schedule and Points Reward System] “Morning – Activity Class” 7:00 All students need to assemble at the [General Playground] for morning activities of varying duration. “Lunch” 12:00 You need to head to the [Internal Cafeteria], and the way of dining will be decided on the spot. “Afternoon – Knowledge Class” 13:40 You need to go to the [Central Corridor] in the teaching area to draw lots, which will determine which classroom to go to and which teacher will teach the lesson. “Evening – Talent Class” 19:30 You need to go to the [Art Hall] for individual talent learning. “Sleep” You must be fully asleep by 23:00 as there will be night shift teachers responsible for checking the sleep state. Completing each day’s activities, lessons, and talent requirements at the normal standard will each earn you one point. The one who ranks in the top three in the weekly comprehensive test will earn 10 points, ranking 3 to 10 will get 5 points, and passing grades will get 2 points. Occasionally, there will also be some projects to earn points, such as class challenges given by teachers, or special events in the cafeteria, etc. The points can be used to purchase daily necessities at the Orphanage’s [Convenience Store]. Once the accumulated points reach 100, you can graduate from the orphanage smoothly and head to a brand new world. … “So you win the bet just by earning 100 points? If it’s just following these rules, even if you make no mistakes and don’t buy anything from the convenience store, and every assessment gets into the top three, it’ll take at least three weeks. That’s too long for us~ and I also don’t wish to be just ‘living and studying.’ First, let’s try to adapt for a day or two, and try to find any hidden rules that might allow us to graduate early.” Yi Chen glanced at the time; the morning activity class had been delayed due to the initial cause… and now it was 11:30; he needed to get ready to head to the cafeteria. After washing up and rehydrating, when the time came to 11:45, a broadcast sounded through the room: “All children, please be advised, all children, please be advised! Find the [Internal Cafeteria] within fifteen minutes and queue up orderly, preparing to enjoy the nutritious feast specially prepared for you by the kitchen. Anyone who fails to arrive within the stipulated time will be considered wasting food and will be assigned to the sewer for filth management.” As the broadcast ended… Squeak! The electric shutter sealing the bedroom unlocked in sync, and a green light lit up on the door. “Lorrian, the cafeteria is hidden quite deep; we need to hurry over,” said Yi Chen. “Do you have to go through a maze just to eat? Hold on a moment.” Moon Trace Lorrian pulled out a silver hair to use as a bookmark, carefully placed the book “To the Moon” underneath the pillow, and then got up to leave.
