CH 155

Principal Wang didn’t have time to inspect the situation of the Bastet exam room. He had been filling in all the loopholes and dealing with the employees of the Dark Star Region. After all, some exam rooms were closed, and new exam rooms were temporarily stopped. The head of the Dark Star Region pointed out that a reasonable explanation was needed.

Principal Wang explained up, down, and sideways and promised to resume all exam room live broadcasts within three days before sending the person in charge of the Dark Star Region away.

He wiped his sweat, then contacted the teacher who was following Lin Xinghe in the exam room and asked for a status update.

Unexpectedly, the teacher did not reply.

As soon as he entered the school, he learned that the teachers were on strike collectively.

And the system did not inform him of it.

Principal Wang questioned the system, “Why didn’t you warn me when the teachers went on strike?”

The system spoke at the refresh rate of an old powerpoint presentation.

“Awakening …… …… people …… number …… of …… increased …… more, this …… system …… system… …negative …… load …… over …… heavy, no …… method …… and …… when ……”

The system took a whole minute to say some fragmented phrases.

Principal Wang listened impatiently, interrupted the system, thinking that he had already closed some of the examination rooms, and shutting more down wouldn’t affect him too much. He then sent out a very official system maintenance notice.

The system sped up.

Principal Wang said, “Pull out the files of all teachers.”

The system immediately pulled out a dozen files categorized as “villain school teachers” and said, “All teachers have awakened to varying degrees.”

Principal Wang’s headache increased.

The villain school needed teachers to operate, and it was impossible for him to let outsiders from the Dark Star region know what he was doing. To be on the safe side, he chose a dozen excellent individuals, gave them these teacher backgrounds, and opened up a separate world for them.

Over the years, there was never a problem.

Now, there were problems with the students, problems with the NPCs, and even problems with the teachers.

The system prompted, “The host should execute the restoration procedure.”

Principal Wang was so upset that he was about to explode.

The school already did not have enough teachers. If he restored them, who would manage the school full of awakened students?

However, the teachers were also a part of the awakening movement. If they were not erased in a timely manner, they would follow the students into rebellion in a heartbeat.

Principal Wang immediately regretted that he had underestimated Lin Xinghe. Who would have thought that she would be able to bring about the awakening of not only NPCs and students, but now even teachers!

Xilin at most bit off a piece of his flesh, but now Lin Xinghe was going to drain his blood dry!

Principal Wang felt cold sweat drip down his spine.

At this time, the system said, “Due to the number of awakening too many people, the interplane mall is no longer available.”

Principal Wang said, “Didn’t we just shut down part of the examination room? Why is it unavailable again?”

The system showed Principal Wang the time to awakened individuals graph, whose trendline was rising at an alarming rate with ever tick of the clock.

Principal Wang stuttered incredulously, “How …… how could ……”

He seemed to think of something and hurriedly asked the system to call up the live examination room, but unexpectedly, once he did, Principal Wang’s heart almost stopped beating. The Bastet examination room, his pride and joy, had actually been completed by Lin Xinghe and the others.

He never expected this.

He had thrown them into the pet store at the beginning, and the normal course would have been for all the candidates to be picked off like pets by the cats. According to the setting of that novel, even if they were overpowered, they would not be able to beat the Bastet cats unless they could join forces with the alien cats. But the alien cats were blocked from the continent.

That novel had a tragic ending.

Liu Anna had been ill for a long time. In order to save her, a doctor invited two psychics—that is, the male lead and female lead—to enter the dream. Their experience in the dream ended with tragically—they were about to save Princess Elizabeth, but Princess Yuanbao swiped at them with one paw and killed them. The world collapsed, the hero and heroine’s consciousness were buried together, and they were promised a tragic afterlife.

Principal Wang watched the recording of Lin Xinghe’s exam, sped up 10x.

A few minutes later –

Principal Wang’s eyes were wide open.

What a bunch of rulebreakers!

The hero and heroine had no chance to appear—they had drowned in a man-made tsunami before they even began to know each other! This group of rulebreakers had rewritten this tragedy!

At this very moment, Principal Wang saw a scene that caused his heart to stop.

His good nephew was sitting in the middle of the crowd in great distress. Xie Wuan’s sword was across his neck, and that kid betrayed him without hesitation!

At the same time, the system interjected, “Host, the reason for the large number of awakenings has been detected!”

All of them were useless!

The teachers were useless! His nephew was useless! Even the system was useless!

Principal Wang was so angry at this moment that his hands were shaking, “You still need to say it? I know it myself!”

The system said, “Warning! Warning! Warning! It is suggested that the host immediately suspend all livestreams. The number of awakenings suddenly increased, and this system can not withstand this—it is on the brink of collapse…”

The suspension of all livestreams was tantamount to ignoring the treaty of the Dark Star Region, selling all his family’s assets in ZH18, and losing all the money he has earned over the years, and it still might not be enough to repay his debts.

The company’s “good nephew” turned against him in public, exposing his backroom operations to the public. Losing all his money and property was the best possible outcome. In the face of the residents of the bloodthirsty Dark Star Region, a hundred lives were not enough. If he sold the company on ZH18, the Interstellar Federation Bureau would of course be suspicious and track him on the over-the-surface business. He wouldn’t have any escape route left.

That Lin Xinghe!

She was not gnawing at his flesh and blood, she was also sucking eighteen generations of his ancestors  dry!

At this time, the system that he had randomly found kept alerting, “about to collapse, about to collapse, about to collapse……”

Principal Wang’s whole person had collapsed.

What to do……?

…… What could he do?!

Compared to the destitute Principal Wang, the crowd in the examination room was extremely hyped.

Lin Xinghe did not know the situation outside, but judging from the silence of the proctor, big things were probably going on. In this case, the more chaotic it was outside, the better. The internal workings of their exam had to be stable to take the role of the lighthouse.

At this time, a familiar voice rang out in Lin Xinghe’s head.

“The teachers are all at various degrees of awakening and are boycotting en masse.”

Lin Xinghe was slightly stunned. It was the strange voice that had reminded her to rush to enter the competitive examination hall earlier.

She looked around.

The others didn’t seem to have heard this voice.

She tried to communicate with the voice, “Who are you?”

The voice replied, “The power of the masses is great, and the ability of an individual is limited. Unite the masses and dismantle the forces of evil. I am on the same front as you. We are both undercover agents. Wake up.”
