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

The moment the dragon's roar erupted from the Dragon King's treasure chest, the entire bus shuddered.

The voice was deep and powerful, like the roar of a tiger in the jungle, enough to make one's hair stand on end just by hearing it.

Jiang Chen reacted even faster than Long Yin.

He subconsciously bent down, his right hand naturally embracing Tang Yan, the little koi fish, while his left hand scooped up Lu Wanzhou, and then activated a shield that could resist 1484 points of damage.

Tang Yan, the little koi, was lifted into the air, her calves reflexively clamping Jiang Chen's right leg, like a little sloth being lifted up, except this little sloth was wearing fragrant, soft white stockings.

Lu Wanzhou was much more natural than Tang Yan. She simply blushed slightly and hugged Jiang Chen's arm tightly.

With Haji's speed, she could have easily dodged it herself, but she insisted on being carried by Pighead Xiaochen. She was happy to do so!

Jiang Chen didn't feel much when the dragon's roar pierced through his body.

He was equipped with the title "[Dragon Slayer! Dragon Slayer! And fucking Dragon Slayer!]", which boosted his Dragon Might resistance to 40%. The kind of Dragon Might that would terrify ordinary players was nothing more than a little dragon breathing in Jiang Chen's face!

What surprised Jiang Chen was that this time the dragon's might did indeed instill some fear in him. After all, the dragon's might of the [King of Destruction and Fire] last time had not affected him in the slightest.

Jiang Chen guessed that the poison attribute was different from the fire, ice, water, wind, lightning, and rock attributes. It was more advanced than the six basic attributes, along with the dark and light attributes, which was why it could affect him, who was able to draw the Calamity Sword.

The girls have a 20% resistance to dragon's might thanks to their title. Apart from some fear, they don't feel uncomfortable and won't be as scared as last time by the dragon's roar, making them want to kneel down.

But the scene outside the bus was not so harmonious.

The zombies that had been drawn by the dragon's blood and were rushing towards the dragon's corpse from all directions stopped abruptly upon hearing the dragon's roar. Then, their knees buckled, and they knelt down on the ground with a thud, bowing their heads.

They made low, hoarse whimpers in their throats, like puppies whimpering and begging for mercy after being bullied.

However, those B-level mutated zombies only paused slightly before resuming their movements; they were less affected than ordinary zombies.

The experienced mechanic operating the Gatling gun from the roof of the vehicle wasn't going to be polite; he took the opportunity to pick them off one by one.

"Da da da—!"

The Gatling gun barrel spun rapidly, and crimson bullets wove together in the air to form an impenetrable net of fire, precisely sweeping across every zombie kneeling on the ground.

The sounds of bullets piercing flesh filled the air.

Dark brown blood mixed with bits of flesh splattered into the air, only to be torn to shreds by the subsequent barrage of comments.

The survival coins flew towards the magnetic coin collector on the top of the bus, causing a dense series of "clinking" sounds to emanate from inside the collector.

At the same time, the light green mist that had filled the interior of the bus was drifting out of the windows onto the road.

Before Tang Yan's Little Koi was unboxed, the girls had already opened all the car windows in advance, showing their experience.

Lan Xingwan immediately raised the Elemental Archmage's Staff and released a small tornado towards the window.

The pale green mist was drawn out of the car window by the pressure difference and went directly into the pale green tornado, making the tornado even darker.

Then, the tornado dissipated, and the pale green mist dispersed. Lan Xingwan then released another tornado in a more distant area, which attracted the pale green mist there.

Where the pale green mist swept by, the surface of the grass blades looked as if they had been doused with concentrated sulfuric acid. The blades first bubbled with white foam and wisps of white smoke rose up, then the edges slowly curled and turned black, and a few seconds later they turned into a pile of burnt yellow residue.

Lan Xingyao leaned against the car window, looking at the corroded grass, then looked down at the pale yellow shield on her body:

"Damn, thank goodness the sports committee's shield is both strong and suffocating."

Jiang Chen's shield is indeed incredibly strong, with a shield value of 1484 points.

Although the light green mist dealt 30 points of true damage to the shield, it was merely a thin layer of skin being shaved off from a shield with 1484 points of strength.

The view inside the bus has been fully restored.

Jiang Chen thought to himself that next time he would have to open this kind of Dragon King Treasure Chest, he would have to do it from outside the car.

Who knows what we'll encounter next?

Freezing? Flooding? Thunder and lightning?

Anything is possible!

The system notification sounded simultaneously in Jiang Chen's and the girls' minds:

[The Grade A Dragon King Treasure Chest has been opened, and the following resources have been obtained. Basic resources have been automatically stored in your inventory.]

[Survival Coins x80]

[King of Diseases and Poisons Item - Poison Resistance Card (Rank S)] ×1

[Disease and Poison King Item - Dragon Fruit (SS Rank)] ×1

Tang Yan, the little koi, bent over and poked her head into the treasure chest, rummaging around inside.

She quickly straightened up, holding a dark green card in her left hand and a dark green fruit in her right.

She carefully lifted the fruit with her fingertips, because its surface was covered with a layer of sticky, green sap.

"Brother Jiang Chen, here you go!"

Jiang Chen glanced down at the fruit, his lips twitching slightly.

This dragon fruit was about the same size as the dragon fruit he had eaten before, about the size of a fist, and similar in shape.

The scales have changed color from crimson to dark green, but a semi-transparent, viscous liquid seeps out between them. If you touch it with your finger, you can pull out thin, long threads from your fingertip, like the tracks left by a snail.

Or rather, like snot...

Dark green snot...

Jiang Chen reached out and pinched the fruit. It felt cool, slippery, and a little sticky, like pinching an eel that had just been pulled out of a pond.

He resisted the urge to throw it away, scanned it with the "Full Map" feature to confirm it was indeed non-toxic, and then shared its information with the girls:

[Dragon Fruit - The King of Diseases and Poisons] (SS Rank)

①【Effect: Excluding the pit, consuming the entire fruit pulp grants permanent buffs: Poison damage +20%, Attack power +20%, and Dragon's Might resistance +5%.】

②【Effect: The seed can be planted; the growth cycle is 10 days, and each plant produces one fruit per growth period.】

The girls all disliked the sticky fruit, even though they knew it had many benefits.

Girls are naturally resistant to sticky things, but Jiang Chen and his friends not only don't resist them, they actually like them!

"Ugh... How disgusting! It looks like fruit soaked in green snot. Will this thing really cause poisoning if I eat it?"

"The Sports Committee's talent description didn't mention it being poisonous, so it should be fine. It's just... the appearance is a bit disgusting, but it can increase poison damage, attack power, and dragon's might resistance! And like dragon fruit, it can be grown! It's really a good thing!"

"But the problem is... who's going to eat it?"

The girls all turned their gazes toward Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Lu Wanzhou.

Lu Wanzhou looked completely bewildered: "What???"
