Look at the transparent light curtain appearing in front of you.
Xu Yun suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
The halo has finally changed!
In fact, according to normal circumstances.
In the first round of the mission, after Xu Yun successfully settled in the dormitory, that is, on the day when he smelled the smelly socks, the settlement interface should appear.
But for some reason, Halo didn’t show the task completion prompt until now.
Could it be that it has something to do with the opening ceremony? You must go through the opening ceremony before you can complete the first round of tasks?
Just when Xu Yun was thinking.
The light curtain also changed again.
[Main mission: Classmate Xiaomai, you don’t want to see Mr. Thomson nailed to the pillar of shame, right? 】
[Task Notes: Lord Kelvin's remarks about the 'two dark clouds' made at the Royal Institution on Albemarle Street have always been misinterpreted by later generations. In order to prevent the great pioneers from being unfairly wronged, please help Xiaomai
Classmates, please correct the wrong history!]
Current progress:
【First Ring】
[Task Difficulty: Hard-Extremely Hard]
[Task content]:
Become a close friend with Maxwell and become a student at Cambridge University within two months. The specific rating depends on the completion of the task.
If you can enter the Magdalen Academy, you will get an extremely difficult evaluation. After completing it, you can start the second round of tasks.
[First ring mission time limit: two months]
[Task reward: Depends on score]
[Punishment for unfinished tasks: Realistic all male ketone favorability +8, luck -5, company profit -20%]
[Additional explanation]:
After the first round of tasks is completed, the person in the wall can return to reality briefly. The specific return time depends on the degree of completion, and can not exceed five days at most.
[The first round of tasks is being settled]
【Result generated!】
See the last four words.
Xu Yun's expression was condensed, and his heart was slightly moved.
Not only did I enter Trinity College this time, but I also made such a big deal at the opening ceremony, so my rating must not be too low, right?
Extreme difficulty must be the basis, and there may even be some special evaluations or prizes?
For example, there will be another national destiny, or a Tifa can be implemented as an assistant in reality?
With this thought in mind, he continued to read.
[First ring mission completion rating: Difficult]
[First ring mission reward: artificial intelligence growth progress +0.2%, the wall-facer can return to reality for three days, and the return time can be selected by the wall-facer]
[The second round of tasks is being generated]
"Gah?"
Looking at the lackluster settlement interface in front of him, Xu Yun was stunned.
wtf?
I did such an exciting thing, and the rating is just [difficult]?
Are you sure Halo isn't possessed by Wade?
Then he suddenly recalled the scene when he was replying to Mavericks' letter in space.
Judging from the process at that time, this halo should provide feedback on some issues.
Think of this.
Xu Yun couldn't help but take a deep breath and said silently in his heart:
"Halo, why is it that even though I have done so many things, the settlement score for the first ring is only 'difficult'?"
Ten seconds later.
A reply appeared on the halo:
[The deadline for the first ring task is 30 seconds after the Wall Facer’s academic status is officially registered. The exact time is 3 days, 11 hours, 42 minutes and 23 seconds before the Wall Facer raised the question. After the task deadline, the Wall Facer’s behavior will not affect the second round.
One-ring task rating.]
"?????"
A series of question marks suddenly appeared on Xu Yun's face:
"Didn't it mean that the first round of the mission ended three and a half days ago, and why are you just prompting for settlement now?"
This time, Halo’s reply was quick:
[When Wallfacer was engaged in the creation of online novels, didn’t there ever happen to be a situation where today’s chapter was postponed until the next day? 】
Look at this sentence.
The corner of Xu Yun's mouth twitched, feeling that he had been hit hard:
""
All right.
It is well founded and cannot be refuted.
Then he took a deep breath and asked again:
"So there won't be any evaluation or reward for the things I did before?"
[Behaviors after the task deadline will not be recorded in the single-ring task evaluation, but will be entered in the final settlement process, so those who face the wall can rest assured.]
【Do you want to conduct the second round of task generation interface? 】
Xu Yun then relaxed, nodded and said:
"let's start."
The words just fell.
The light curtain changed.
[The second round of tasks is being generated]
【Task generated!】
[Second Ring Task: I just did a little bit of minor work]
[The second ring mission time limit: 179 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds]
[Task reward: Depends on score]
[Punishment for unfinished tasks: favorability of all men in Cambridge University +30, favorability of all women -40]
[Task description: Provide some minor help to Thomson and assist the future Lord Kelvin in successfully running for president of the Cambridge University Student Union].
"President of the Federation of Students?"
Looking at the second ring mission prompt, Xu Yun couldn't help but touch his chin.
Compared with the multiple choices of the first-level tasks, the second-level tasks are undoubtedly much more straightforward.
It has only one mission objective, and the difficulty and category are relatively moderate. Lao Tang was originally a strong competitor for the president.
At the same time, don’t say anything else.
Based on the relationship between Xu Yun and Lao Tang, even if there is no such task prompt, he will try his best to help Lao Tang rise to power.
After all, the loser who failed to run for president will directly graduate from Cambridge.
In other words.
The guidance of the tasks in the second ring is not so clear, and the concept is more adaptable.
That is to say, Xu Yun can focus on adapting to life in Cambridge, and at the same time support Lao Tang as the president of the school association.
But on the other hand.
Judging from the urinary properties of halo in the past
With such a relatively 'comfortable' mission as a foundation, the difficulty of the next third or fourth ring may not be low.
Just like hydrating during a marathon.
Hydration is not for your enjoyment, but for the more intense and brutal sprint ahead.
So
The potential meaning of this task is actually just one:
Adjust your posture, I want to speed up!
Of course.
This is a relatively long-term situation.
What Xu Yun needs to consider now is how to successfully complete the second round of tasks.
As for the reward for returning to reality?
He decided not to activate it for now.
Nothing will happen in reality in three days. The reason why Halo gives three days of rewards is actually somewhat similar to the first creature that newcomers can create for free in "Infinite Horror".
In "Infinite Terror".
You can create a girl to discuss life with you, or you can create a burly bodyguard, depending on lust or survival.
The same goes for Halo's three-day reward.
Xu Yun can return to reality for three days to adjust his mentality when he is tired, or he can return to reality to exchange for gold when he is short of money.
You can also return to reality at a critical moment, query corresponding information or think of countermeasures.
Different choices will bring different benefits. At the same time, according to the task prompts of the second ring, there is a high probability that the same return reward will not appear next.
Therefore, this is a very special and unique trump card, so Xu Yun does not intend to waste it at this time.

While Xu Yun was thinking.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Mai Mai, who had gone out to fetch water, walked into the house with Lao Tang:
"Luo Feng."
Xu Yun quickly stood up and said to Laotang:
"Mr. Thomson."
Lao Tang nodded to him and raised a piece of fish in his hand:
"On the way back to the dormitory, I happened to encounter a fish stall, so I brought a piece of fish meat over, just in time for you to have a meal."
What Laotang brought was a piece of boneless eel meat. In foreign countries, this kind of boneless stuff is called fillet. It is probably similar to the minced meat filling in local supermarkets.
Cambridge University has no walls, so students can often see this kind of vendors when they go around, which is also one of the characteristics of Cambridge.
Earlier, on the way to Cambridge University, Xu Yun used wild shrimps and shallots on the roadside, which are foreign onions that are not the same as traditional onions, but have a somewhat similar taste.
I made fish with scallion oil once.
At that time, wheat and laotang were called that fragrant food.
So on the way to Xu Yun's dormitory, Thomson took a long detour and bought a piece of fresh eel.
Xu Yun then took the piece of fish from Lao Tang and went to the kitchen to marinate it with salt and soy sauce.
It's a pity that I can't find cooking wine, otherwise it would be more fragrant with some Huadiao.
Pickling river eels takes some time, so after processing the fish, Xu Yun returned to the original place and chatted with Lao Tang.
With the experience of two lifetimes here, he naturally realized that Lao Tang was not just looking for him just for food.
Wow!
Lao Tang first poured a glass of water for Xu Yun and himself, then picked up the cup and took a sip, and suddenly said:
"Luo Feng, did you find anything wrong today?"
"Something's wrong?"
Xu Yun blinked and recalled the situation at today's measurement site.
Everything is normal in the classroom today. If there is anything wrong, there is only one.
He hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively:
"Angus Roman? He didn't seem to show up today?"
Angus Roman.
This person is the president of the Newton Research Society, a knife arranged by Prime, and the source of all evil that has caused so many incidents in the past two days.
Xu Yun had glimpsed his figure when he was doing three rounds of experiments last night, but when he verified the electromagnetic waves today, Xu Yun did not see this person appear.
Originally, Xu Yun thought that his status was too low to appear, but now it seems that
Angus Roman was not present, seems to have some hidden agenda?
After hearing Xu Yun's answer, Lao Tang raised his eyelids and glanced at him, nodded and said:
"Angus Roman's father, Piña Roman, was a tax officer in London. Since the recommender was a well-known economics authority, his behavior in the past was relatively flamboyant, leaving a lot of flaws."
"This morning the House of Commons issued an arrest warrant to arrest Piña Roman and imprison him for corruption and bribery."
"The school board also made a decision half an hour ago to expel Angus Roman from school."
Xu Yun was stunned when he heard this:
"So fast?"
Classmate Lao Tang smiled and explained:
"Your third experiment last night refuted the theory of light fluctuations. Without the control being in other people's hands, Dean William Whewell would naturally not be soft-hearted."
Xu Yun nodded thoughtfully.
Today, his experiment required the use of galvanized metal plates. According to Joule's previous statement, the people sent by William Whewell arrived in London at about one or two in the morning.
If the layout was started at that time and a series of operations were carried out, it would not be too outrageous to issue an arrest warrant in the morning.
After all, William Whewell in history was a somewhat narrow-minded person, a standard scholar, and his motto was to take advantage of your illness to kill you.
in the original trajectory.
In 1858, William Whewell's little fan Jevons attended a traveling economics conference in London and was sprayed in the conference room by John Stuart Mill.
As a result, that afternoon, John Stuart Mill's nephew at Christ's College, Cambridge University received a letter of dismissal.
John Stuart Mill's uncle also entered the prison a day later and was imprisoned for eleven days on the grounds of provoking trouble.
Throughout ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, learning has never been a complimentary term.
Then Xu Yun thought of something else and asked Lao Tang:
"Mr. Thomson, could it be that the recommender of Pinha Roman that you mentioned is Professor Prime?"
Lao Tang glanced around covertly, nodded slightly, lowered his voice and said:
"That's right."
Xu Yun suddenly felt enlightened.
I see
Is it any wonder that Angus Roman would dare to stand up and slander William Whewell? Does his father still have such a relationship with Prime?
Don't know how.
Xu Yun suddenly had a picture in Xu Yun's mind of Voldemort asking Malfoy to sneak attack Dumbledore, while Lucius was helpless and worried by the side.
But it's different from the movie.
Dumbledore in "Harry Potter" finally died, but now William Whewell survives.
Angus Roman failed to complete the task. Faced with William Whewell's counterattack, Prime would naturally abandon his car to save the coach.
Another thing Xu Yun didn't know was.
In the original historical trajectory.
Angus Roman's father, Pinha Roman, went to the mainland in 1848 and served as the deputy tax minister of Xiangjiang.
In the end, he was shot to death on the order of Elgin's younger brother Prussia in 1853 because of his many evil deeds.
A tax official who can make the British take the initiative to order a shooting, you can imagine how many evil things this person has done. (Sometimes I really have to sigh that everything in the world is really wonderful. The above incidents about Pinha Roman are all historical facts, including
Angus Romain is the president of the Newton Research Society, but at first I really only chose him as the villain because of his identity)
Of course.
Xu Yun did not understand this past which required a lot of information to be consulted.
At this time, his attention was attracted by another object in Lao Tang's hand.
