Survival in the Class: I'm the Only Boy on the Bus

The entire carriage was instantly filled with colorful light, and even the road outside was illuminated in a riot of colors, as if the four-story bus was traveling on a rainbow.

Tang Yan knew things were stable once she saw the red light turn into multicolored light.

She excitedly poked her little head into the treasure chest, her body bent into an arc, with only her little bottom sticking out and happily swaying around outside the chest.

She looked like a little hamster stealing food.

Jiang Chen smiled helplessly as he looked at the girl's excited expression. He gently supported Tang Yan's shoulder, afraid that she would fall headfirst into the hole.

The system notification rang in everyone's minds, and each time it rang, the girls' eyes lit up a little more.

[The S-rank treasure chest has been opened, and the following resources have been obtained. Basic resources have been automatically stored in your inventory.]

[Drinking Water] x160

Compressed Biscuits x160

[Bread] x160

[Various Snacks] x160

[Candy] x200

[Various Beverages] x160

Survival Coins x80

[Team Free Attribute Points] x30

[S-Rank Weapon - Elemental Archmage's Scepter] x1

[S-Rank Talent Awakening Book] x1

[S-Tier Module Heavy Hammer Mortar Blueprint] x1

[SS-Rank Dungeon Unlock Key] x1

Tang Yan peeked out of the treasure chest, her eyes sparkling:

"Wow! This system is pretty smart. It knew we couldn't fit everything on the first floor, so it automatically put all that basic supplies into our bags."

As she spoke, she reached into the treasure chest and took out four items that hadn't been automatically stored.

The S-grade Talent Awakening Book, the Elemental Archmage's Scepter, and the Heavy Hammer Mortar blueprint all glowed red.

The key to unlock the SS-level dungeon emits a seven-colored light.

Tang Yan hugged the four items to her chest, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons as she smiled.

She loves opening treasure chests and drawing cards the most; she'll be happy as long as she can keep opening treasure chests.

Fortunately, no mimics have appeared yet, otherwise we could recreate the famous scene where Frillie was single-handedly defeated by a mimic.

After Tang Yan took out all the items from the S-grade treasure chest, the S-grade treasure chest turned into specks of light and disappeared.

The girls were somewhat shocked, but not much, when they saw the four items in Tang Yan's hand that were flashing red and colorful lights.

Because they had already guessed the outcome, and were all used to Tang Yan's incredible luck:

"See? I guessed right. I did get an SS-rank dungeon key, but isn't getting three S-rank keys in a row a bit outrageous?"

"That's not all! They even opened two hundred candies."

"Sisters, I'm thinking, Tang Yan, the lucky koi, is both beautiful and lucky. If she had started livestreaming to help others draw cards before she time-traveled, would she already be a huge internet celebrity and a millionaire?"

"You underestimate the power of capital. I reckon Tang Yan's live stream won't last more than three days before it gets shut down."

"That's true. If everyone asks Tang Yan to draw cards, who will spend money? That would affect revenue. Do you think game companies don't need to make money?"

Lan Xingyao chuckled and gave Tang Yan a thumbs up:

"Tang Yan, you lucky little koi, your luck... I can only say, it's like a cow celebrating its birthday—it's even more amazing than before!"

Tang Yan tilted her head, looking puzzled:

"Xingyao, your punctuation is so strange... I feel like your praise is a little odd."

Lan Xingyao chuckled, revealing a mischievous, frilly smile.

≖◡≖

Tang Yan ignored this pervert.

She hopped up to Jiang Chen, carrying four items, stood on tiptoe, tilted her little face up, and her big, light blue eyes sparkled with anticipation for praise.

"Brother Jiang Chen, look! Aren't I amazing!"

Jiang Chen smiled and ruffled her hair; it felt wonderful, her white jellyfish-like head was so soft.

"Amazing, no wonder she's called the Little Lucky Koi."

After receiving Jiang Chen's praise, Tang Yan's eyes curved into crescent moons with happiness.

Jiang Chen took the item from Tang Yan and immediately activated [Full Map Unlock], causing a light screen to pop up.

Jiang Chen then shared all the information with the girls.

[Elemental Archmage's Scepter] (S-Rank)

①【Passive Effect: Attack Power +200, Spirit Power +200】

②【Passive Effect: Elemental Damage +50%】

[S-Tier Module Heavy Hammer Mortar Blueprint]

①【Effect: The Heavy Hammer Mortar can only be mounted on the roof of a vehicle.】

②【Effect: Fires a powerful projectile at the enemy, dealing high physical damage to enemies within a 10-meter radius. Attack range: 3km. Attack interval: 8 seconds.】

③【Usage Requirements: Consumes 10 Survival Coins for 24 hours. Can be hidden at any time; usage time is saved after hiding.】

④【Crafting Requirements: 240 Survival Coins】

[SS-Rank Dungeon Unlock Key]

①【Effect: A one-time use item used to unlock SS-rank dungeons.】

The girls were amazed after seeing the information about these three items:

"Tang Yan actually got the key to open this SS-level dungeon! Does that mean there will be an SS-level dungeon later? Will it be full of S-level zombie dragons? Just thinking about it is terrifying!"

"This heavy hammer mortar looks pretty powerful, but it's a bit expensive to craft."

"What's there to be afraid of? With the Sports Committee member and Tang Yan, who's incredibly lucky, it's just 240 survival coins, a piece of cake! Besides, there are still so many zombies coming to deliver survival coins tonight."

"Sister, what are you saying? It's only the second day! If the other teams heard this, they'd be furious!"

"Sisters, look! This S-rank staff is insane! It directly adds 200 attack power and spirit power! Although it's not as insane as Xingyao's, it's about the same..."

Lan Xingyao chuckled when she heard herself praised, showing no embarrassment whatsoever, and even puffed out her chest:

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Tang Yan stared at the staff's percentage damage bonus, her eyes shining:

"This staff also boasts a prestigious percentage-based damage bonus!"

Even the usually aloof Ruan Ningshuang was somewhat surprised upon seeing this S-grade staff.

She was indeed envious.

If this staff were given to her, it could directly add another 200 points of attack power to the sisters.

However, Ruan Ningshuang maintained a cold expression on her face, but glanced at the staff a couple more times.

Whether she gets it or not, it's entirely up to Jiang Chen.

No matter what Jiang Chen decides, she will support him unconditionally.

Wu Maiduo's lips twitched as she looked at how many good items Tang Yan had brought out again.

She looked around and saw that her sisters were eating and drinking as usual, without the slightest surprise, as if they were used to it.

That's the scariest part!

But Wu Maiduo suddenly realized that she wasn't as shocked as she had been when she first saw Tang Yan unbox the box.

She herself has actually started to get used to it.

Ying Feixue's attention was always on Jiang Chen.

The SS-level dungeon key did indeed attract her attention for a moment, and a hint of shock flashed in her crimson pupils.

But it was only at first glance.

Soon, she fixed her gaze on Jiang Chen.

Whether you're SS-class or SSS-class, you're not as powerful as my master.

Jiang Chen held the Elemental Archmage's Staff in his hand, and put the other three items into his spatial backpack.

We don't know who to give the S-level talent awakening book to yet; we need to observe the performance of the other girls further.

There's no rush to synthesize the Heavy Hammer Mortar; let's see if there are any other mods available before nightfall.

As for SS-level dungeon keys, needless to say, I've only encountered A-level dungeons once, and I haven't even seen an S-level dungeon yet, so I can only say that the future looks promising.

Jiang Chen looked at the staff in his hand. It was entirely silver-white, with a fist-sized seven-colored gem floating at the top, casting dappled light and shadow in the carriage.

The staff is very heavy and has a cool, metallic feel.

Jiang Chen weighed it in his hand.

He thought about it and realized that it would be a waste to use this thing himself.

Each player can only equip two weapons at a time. Does this mean that for the elemental bonus of the staff, one has to wield a katana in the left hand and a staff in the right? Wouldn't that turn one into a melee archmage?

Besides, my current strength is already high enough.

He wanted the girls to improve their strength so that if he were to enter a dungeon like he did in the City of Ceasefire, they would have the ability to protect themselves.

Most importantly, Jiang Chen genuinely dislikes the staff.

Jiang Chen really liked the SS-grade longsword, Calamity, which came from Wang Zhaodi's talent.

In fact, Jiang Chen already had three people in mind.

Ruan Ningshuang, Lan Xingyao, Lan Xingwan.

If you give it to Ruan Ningshuang, then the staff's +50% elemental damage bonus will be wasted.

She doesn't need to deal damage at all; she just needs to buff everyone.

Moreover, Ruan Ningshuang does not have any means of elemental attack.

What about Lan Xingyao?

Her fireball deals area-of-effect (AOE) fire damage, which perfectly benefits from the staff's 50% elemental damage bonus.

Adding another 200 attack power doubles the damage, and the 200 spirit power bonus also makes her fireball last longer.

You can give it to Lan Xingwan too.

Her tornado deals wind-attribute damage and can benefit from full buffs. The 200-point attack power bonus also allows her to gather monsters in a larger area and slow them down more.

Either of the two sisters can hold this staff.

Jiang Chen gripped the scepter and walked toward the Lan Xingyao sisters.

The girls fell silent upon seeing this, their eyes following Jiang Chen's movements.

They were very curious whether the Sports Commission would give this S-class weapon to the older sister or the younger sister.
