104 Come to play the hall, please enlighten me! (5000 word chapter)
July 19, Monday
At 5:10 in the morning, it was dark.
On the main road outside Meihong Community, Lin Li, wearing black sportswear, was doing stretching exercises on the service road.
After a weekend, he became a bit stronger and his height also increased to 178 centimeters, and he was no longer the pretty boy.
Not long after, footsteps came from behind.
Lin Li did not turn around to look, he continued to do his stretching exercises, and then started to trot forward directly.
"Good morning."
Ji Meilin, wearing a blue quick-drying sportswear, quickly caught up and ran side by side with Lin Li.
"morning."
Lin Li nodded.
The two of them ran all the way to school without saying anything, and finally walked into the golden villa No. 2022 together.
Lin Li went into the underground training room to continue exercising, while Ji Meilin went to take a shower and change clothes.
Ten minutes later, Ji Meilin, wearing daily clothes, walked into the training room and stood aside silently.
After Lin Li stopped, she waved her hand and took out two skill crystals from the storage space and handed them over.
"Two silver-level ice roars, each with a market price of about six million."
Lin Li sat back on the rest bench and reached out to take it.
Ji Meilin took out his mobile phone and said: "Send me the card number and I will transfer two million to you."
Lin Li nodded, took out his mobile phone and sent his re-applied bank card number to Ji Meilin.
A few minutes later, Ji Meilin successfully transferred two million Xia coins to Lin Li.
After successfully being promoted to bronze, Ji Meilin asked his family to learn the silver skill Ice Roar.
Of course, the Ji family would not refuse this reasonable request and quickly bought her three Ice Roar worth six million.
Ji Meilin had successfully learned Ice Roar in his first attempt, but deliberately said he had failed.
The second one also pretended to be a failure, and the last one was successful.
The two Ice Roar skills and two million pocket money that she had "corrupted" were her "certificate of submission" to Lin Li, proving that she was valuable.
Ji Meilin didn't mince words and went straight to the point: "I hope you don't take back Lissandra..."
It wasn't that she was reluctant to part with Lissandra's power, but that she would die if Lin Li took it back.
Ji Meilin knew that Lin Li didn't like her, and there was a high probability that she would take Lissandra back at some point.
It wasn't her guess, but Yan Zhenzhen reminded her seriously.
In Yan Zhenzhen's own words, she loved and licked her boss, and she would definitely give him everything he wanted until the end. It has already begun to show results, at least Lin Li's emotions towards her are positive.
Bai Yunhe is a confident empress, and it doesn't matter even if she doesn't do anything.
Zhou Qingzhu has also taken action to swear allegiance to Lin Li.
Only when facing Ji Meilin, Lin Li's mood was indifferent.
This is very dangerous. As long as she does anything that makes Lin Li dissatisfied, the latter may ruthlessly kill her.
That's why she lied and defrauded two ice roar skills worth a total of 12 million from her family.
"Oh, as long as you are valuable, I will not take it back."
Lin Li looked at Ji Meilin's panel and showed a faint smile.
He can see the loyalty of his teammates and make judgments and decisions based on it.
Bai Yunhe's loyalty is at full 100, which means that he will not betray Lin Li even if he dies, and he will consider Lin Li wholeheartedly.
Yan Zhenzhen's loyalty is 99, and Zhou Qingzhu's loyalty is 90.
Ji Meilin's loyalty was originally 45, but now it has increased to 77.
Although it is far lower than the other three, it is at least above the passing line.
Loyalty is not a matter of favorability, and Lin Li doesn't need to brush it up.
On the other hand, Ji Meilin and others should take the initiative to brush them. Once their loyalty drops to a dangerous level, Lin Li will take back the template.
But Lin Li could see their loyalty, but they themselves didn't know it.
In short, Lin Li has absolute control.
Ji Meilin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Don't worry about this, I will do my best to help you."
"Ah…"
Lin Li laughed noncommittally.
Help him?
It should be to please him.
Ji Meilin's mentality has not really changed yet.
Facing Lin Li, she was the absolute inferior.
It should be to assist or please, not to help.
"Boss?~"
There was a sound of footsteps, and accompanied by cheers, Yan Zhenzhen flew down the stairs of the training room.
It looks like a dog that hasn't seen its owner for a day, and its tail is almost wagging like a propeller.
Lin Li smiled, reached out and touched Yan Zhenzhen's head, and then glanced at Ji Meilin next to him.
You see, this is the example you should follow.
Lick me, lick me hard so you can survive...
Ji Meilin pursed his lips and silently watched the interaction between Lin Li and Yan Zhenzhen.
That was not Lin Li's idea, but her interpretation of that glance.
In fact, Lin Li didn't need anyone to lick him, although it did feel good.
But his only requirement for everyone except Bai Yunhe is to be a useful "tool man".
If nothing can help him, it will be a matter of time before the hero template is taken back.
He also talked to several people about this.
"Boss, this is the crystallization I 'took' from home, please praise me..."
After Yan Zhenzhen enjoyed the master's touch, he couldn't wait to pour out a dozen dimensional crystals from his shoulder bag.
"Not bad, very good..." Lin Li's eyes lit up and he nodded in praise.
There are a total of twelve dimensional crystals, five silver skill crystals, six silver energy crystals, and one bronze skill crystal.
The silver skill is far inferior to Ice Roar, but it's still worth two million apiece.
The total price of the six silver energy crystals exceeds two million.
The bronze skill is a "Wind Slash" worth about 500,000 yuan.
"Actually, I also saw a gold skill in the warehouse, worth thirty or forty million. I originally wanted to give it to the boss, but I held it back for the sake of 'slow water'."
Yan Zhenzhen said with a regretful expression.
In order to please Lin Li, she really didn't feel sad at all when she moved the Yan family's property.
Lin Li said with relief: "The current resources are enough for me to use for a while. You are already doing great. There is no need to blame yourself."
Yan Zhenzhen's character has been highly integrated with Jinx, who seems to be crazy, but is actually a very insecure person.
Lack of love leads to longing for love, recognition and recognition.
It's like a child who likes to play pranks, but actually just wants to get more attention.
Verbal praise does not require money, so Lin Li is certainly not stingy.
Of course, more importantly, he was very satisfied with Yan Zhenzhen's attitude of trying to please him.
Of course, dry licking was useless, she had to provide Lin Li with actual benefits.
At seven o'clock, Bai Yunhe also arrived at Villa No. 2022.
In the past two days, he had been preparing for Seraphine's debut, and had been paying attention to the rumors related to Lin Li.
The good news is that the big influencers are not involved.
The bad news is that the popularity of "Lin Li is a member of the Demon Cult" is steadily rising...
"I have edited the first battle video and it is ready to be released at any time."
On the way to the teaching building, Bai Yunhe frowned and said.
"It's up to you." Lin Li smiled calmly.
"Yes, I know."
Bai Yunhe nodded lightly.
…
Class 7, sophomore class, on the second floor of teaching building No. 3.
At 7:40, there were already many students in the class.
A total of 110 students from the two classes went to the Devil's Secret Realm for training, and 48 students came back with Lin Li. Later, two surviving students were found.
Less than half of the students came back alive...
There were still 20 people in the two classes who did not participate in the secret realm experience, and they luckily escaped.
The total number of students is 70, and they are all integrated into Class 7, leaving Class 8 empty for the time being.
When Lin Li and the others came to the class, the head teacher Chu Yongxia was already there and was sorting out the student information of the two classes on the podium.
There will definitely be no lectures today, mainly things like rearranging seats and selecting class leaders.
Hearing the footsteps coming from the door, Chu Yongxia turned her head and looked over.
When he saw Lin Li, he was slightly startled and couldn't help but sigh.
After the teaching building incident, she had been trying to find time to have a good talk with Lin Li, but this happened.
The other students in the classroom also looked towards the door and were very surprised to see Ji Meilin and Yan Zhenzhen walking with Lin Li.
In the teammate channel, Ji Meilin said with some confusion: "Their expressions are a bit strange...is it directed at Lin Li?"
Bai Yunhe guessed: "It should be related to Ali's rumors. The students are the 'victims', so naturally they pay more attention to the news about this incident than others..."
Lin Li didn't care about this, walked over to meet Chu Yongxia's gaze, and said calmly: "Teacher Chu, I want to take a long leave."
Chu Yongxia frowned and said: "The final exam is coming soon. If there is nothing important, don't ask for leave if you can."
Lin Li didn't say anything, but took out a bronze card from his shoulder bag and handed it to Chu Yongxia.
Chu Yongxia took the bronze card with some doubts, took one look at it and was stunned.
Name: Lin Li
Sex: Male
Age:19
Nationality: Xia
Born: December 2, 2203
Level: Brass Brass 2nd Stage
Registration date: July 17, 2222
…
"You... when did you advance to bronze!" Chu Yongxia's face was full of surprise, and then she asked even more doubtfully: "No wonder you can defeat Ji Meilin, you have been... hiding your strength? Why is this?"
Lin Li did not answer Chu Yongxia's question and said calmly: "You can apply for a long vacation if you are a bronze-level person."
"It can be…"
Chu Yongxia frowned slightly and nodded.
As long as first- and second-year students are promoted to the bronze rank, it doesn't matter if they don't come to school. They don't even need to take the final exam to advance to junior year and become official students.
Zhang Candong is in the bronze rank and has even obtained a silver student certificate, so he rarely comes to school, and he didn't come today.
"Then I'll trouble Teacher Chu."
After Lin Li finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the classroom.
Chu Yongxia quickly stood up and wanted to call Lin Li, but was stopped by Ji Meilin and said: "Teacher, I also want to apply for a long leave."
"Ah?" Chu Yongxia was stunned for a moment, and then said dullly: "Have you also been promoted to bronze?"
Ji Meilin nodded and said, "Yes."
"Okay, okay, it's all approved..." Chu Yongxia looked helpless.
"Thank you, teacher." Ji Meilin nodded, turned around and walked out of the classroom.
Then Yan Zhenzhen walked up to Chu Yongxia again.
The latter was immediately speechless and asked: "Have you also been promoted to the bronze rank?"
"No, teacher." Yan Zhenzhen said with a smile, "But I am also here to ask for leave, just for one day."
"Well..." Chu Yongxia didn't even bother to ask the reason, and just nodded in agreement.
Before Yan Zhenzhen left the classroom, she looked at Bai Yunhe and asked, "Where are you, Yunhe? Do you also want to ask for leave?"
Bai Yunhe quickly waved his hand and said, "Teacher Chu, I don't want to ask for leave."
"Finally, I don't have to ask for leave... You go find a seat and sit down. The teacher will come and make arrangements later..."
Chu Yongxia nodded, stood up and walked out of the classroom, and saw Lin Li and three others leaving side by side.
"We were still hating each other last week, ugh..."
Chu Yongxia shook her head slightly, thinking of the students who died, she couldn't help but sigh again, full of heartache and regret.
At this time, dozens of students in the class were staring at Bai Yunhe who had just sat down.
One student couldn't help but ask: "Bai Yunhe, do you know the news related to Lin Li these days?"
"Are you talking about Ali being a member of the Demon Cult?"
Bai Yun and Xin Xin knew it well. Seeing that other students were paying attention, they smiled and shook their heads and said, "Do you think it's possible? If Ali was a member of the Demon Cult, he would have been arrested long ago. The school's top management even rewarded Ali with 100 RMB for this incident.
Where are the credits?”
"Ah! Then why do I only have 50 credits..."
"Let me tell you, how could Lin Li be the mastermind behind this demonic attack? The school's senior officials are not stupid."
"But it's really a bit strange! I remember Lin Li was a second-dan black iron guy, why did he suddenly become a second-dan bronze guy? This is too exaggerated!"
"There is another thing that puzzles me. When I was escaping, I looked back and saw that you seemed to have been overtaken by demons... there are so many demons! How could you escape unharmed?"
"That's right! At first glance, they are all demons. There are probably thousands of them, and they can drown the Silver Extraordinary. How did you escape?"
…
In the classroom, the surviving students asked each other their doubts.
They didn't think much about it at first, but after seeing the news, they couldn't help but start to doubt it. The more they thought about it, the more they felt something was wrong.
Because this is really against common sense.
"Didn't we all accept the school's investigation and questioning when we came back? If there is really a problem, Ali Xian will be arrested!"
Bai Yunhe smiled, but his heart felt a little solemn.
Even his classmates were a little suspicious of Lin Li, so netizens who knew nothing would definitely believe those rumors even more.
Because there were too many doubts about Lin Li, and it was these doubts that allowed those rumors to stand.
The first doubt was about Lin Li's level. He suddenly went from the bottom of the grade, the second-level black iron, to the top of the grade, the second-level bronze. This span is really too big.
The second doubt is the issue of escape. Even if Lin Li is bronze, how can he escape safely in the hands of so many demons?
…
Bai Yunhe is very aware of the power of the Internet. Once the rumors slandering Lin Li really become hot news in Wuling District and even Wanghai City, even releasing the first video will not have much effect.
It's like an innocent actress was slandered for various reasons, causing public outrage across the country.
Afterwards, it would be useless even if the actress used various evidence to clarify herself, because except for fans, no one else cared at all.
Unless the popularity of her clarification can outweigh the popularity of black spots on the entire Internet, even so, there will still be many people attacking her with those false black spots for a long time to come.
Many people only want to believe what they want to believe, especially netizens.
Just like the fake news that Jay Chou donated 50,000 yuan to the earthquake, even the official media came out to clarify it for him several times, but the result is that ten years later, many people still think this is true.
Bai Yunhe is an Internet celebrity live broadcaster. He himself has been exposed online because of women's clothing, and he is very aware of the power of rumors.
"No, I can't wait for the popularity to rise before releasing the battle video. I have to release the first video as soon as possible..."
Bai Yunhe secretly made a decision to publish the video in the next two days.
Lin Li's original intention was to use the opportunity to gain some popularity.
When the popularity of blackmailing him rises, and then the battle video is released, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.
Then Seraphine took advantage of this wave of popularity to announce her debut. She would definitely take off immediately and make a lot of money.
After all, it’s all about money!
Bai Yunhe originally agreed, but now he changed his mind.
What's more, he firmly believes that Seraphine can become popular even if she doesn't take advantage of this popularity.
…
Wuling Chaofan Academy, left area.
The training buildings covering a large area are located next to each other, and each building is nine stories high.
Each level is divided into four areas for four classes to train or compete.
By the third and fourth years of college, liberal arts subjects are no longer acceptable.
It is mainly about various battle training and secret realm experience.
There are only two days of classes a week, and the rest of the time can be arranged freely.
If the instructor has time to take care of his students, he will naturally go to the secret realm to practice.
If the instructor is not free, you can also go to the secret realm, but it is best to be in a safe area. You can also pick up tasks released by the school.
Generally speaking, two-day courses are scheduled on Monday and Tuesday.
At 8:30 in the morning, most of the third and fourth grade students were in the training building for morning warm-up exercises.
In Building No. 1, the four classes on the first floor are Classes 1 to 4 of the third grade.
On the left side of the entrance is Class 1, and opposite Class 1 is Class 3.
On the right side of the entrance is Class 2, and on the opposite side is Class 4.
At this time, in the first class training hall, more than forty students were warming up.
While warming up, we talked about the hottest topic these days, which was the incident where Class 7 and 8 of the second grade were attacked by demons during their secret realm experience.
Two instructors were sitting in the corner, also chatting about this matter.
Two students were very close to the entrance of the training hall and suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind.
"Who's coming?"
The two of them turned around and looked over, just in time to see a handsome guy with a short head walk into the training hall, followed by two beauties.
After seeing the appearance clearly, the two people immediately showed surprised expressions.
This really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao have arrived. The two of them were talking about Class 7 and 8 just now, and they happened to be talking about Lin Li.
Soon, other students and instructors in the training hall also noticed the three people at the door, and they all looked over.
The tutors and students were all a little confused, wondering what the three sophomores were doing here.
"Good morning to all seniors and fellow tutors, Lin Li from Class 7 of the second grade is here to kick off the gym. Please give me some advice..."
Lin Li showed a kind smile and shouted very politely.
