"Even if Hirata-boy is unfortunately hit by Godzilla's atomic breath, I firmly believe that we can accumulate enough points to reunite with him in the near future."

Koenji narrowed his eyes slightly:

"I'm just lamenting... If it weren't for the Mefilas aliens' forceful intervention, we could have saved far more people, and we wouldn't have gotten so few item points!"

"Even without considering the casualties of Hirata and Yamada, judging from the data alone, the visible losses that Mefilas caused us are definitely no less than one hundred S points."

Tianze Yixia stroked her chin and replied with obvious heartache.

Yagami Takuya echoed this sentiment, expressing his own empathy:

"Yes, we now have enough item points to each of us buy a [Blank Card Box]."

"If this hadn't happened, we should have had a surplus to buy two or even more props."

Listening to their calculations, Nanase Tsubasa stood aside. Although she felt a little regretful, she didn't have their kind of absolute selfishness.

The girl felt more guilty for not being able to save more innocent civilians.

She felt she had failed the justice she had always upheld, and felt powerless in the face of a real natural disaster.

But at the same time, the girl was also very clear about it.

Without any powerful items to rely on right now, she's essentially just a "supporting character" to fill out the initial testing phase.

The outcome of this test was entirely determined by the hard work of several veteran players, including Su Wei and Gao Yuanji.

'However, now that I have this first pot of gold as a foundation, I am no longer completely powerless.'

'Next time...next time I must do better, I must save more people!'

Nanase Tsubasa secretly made up her mind.

She composed herself, turned her head and noticed that Yotsuya Miko's expression was clearly off, so she quickly went over and gently comforted her:

"It's alright, Yotsuya-kun."

"Although this casualty incident is indeed a big blow to us... anyone who wants to improve in this examination room always needs a gradual adaptation process."

"I believe we'll adapt to the pace here soon. Whether it's to become stronger to protect more people, or to accumulate enough points to revive those who are important to us."

When Yotsuya Miko heard Nanase Tsubasa's concerned voice, she snapped out of her reverie.

She looked at Nanase Tsubasa, mumbled something slightly, and explained a little shyly:

"Uh... I'm sorry, Nanase-san, actually... I wasn't thinking that much about the exam just now."

“I’m just…worried about my mom.”

Miko Yotsuya's eyes reddened slightly, and her voice trembled: "She only has me as her daughter, and her father died young. In my original world, filled with evil spirits, I was truly worried about how she would live alone..."

"What if... what if, as the Black Sphere of God said, my world also encounters an invasion by monsters like Godzilla or the Dark Demon... what should she do?"

After listening, Nanase Tsubasa gently hugged Miko's shoulder and sighed softly.

"If that's the case, then to be on the safe side, try your best to survive and accumulate more points, Yotsuya-kun."

"Whether for yourself or for your family in another world."

Yotsuya Miko nodded heavily.

Just as she was wiping away the tears from the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye that Horikita Suzune was alone, approaching the black sphere suspended in the center of the room, her fingers rapidly operating something on the screen.

Seeing this, Nanase Tsubasa subconsciously glanced over as well, and couldn't help but ask with some confusion:

"Senior, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing the question, Horikita Suzune stopped what she was doing, turned to the crowd, and explained:

"I was just about to check the Black Ball's evaluation of our exam when I unexpectedly discovered that the Black Ball system interface now has some hidden new functions."

"What's extra?"

Nanase Tsubasa and the others were surprised and gathered around.

Horikita Suzune stepped aside, pointing at the black sphere screen, and said:

"As a reward for this salvation test, the black ball has added a 'quick use' function to our wristwatch system. In the future, if we need to use an item, we can directly click on the wristwatch to skip the capsule materialization step and equip or use it instantly."

"And, new features..."

Horikita Suzune pointed to an option marked with a cross icon:

"We can spend 10 S points to open an 'accessory slot' in the Black Ball Watch."

"Once activated, we can place the [Ghost Mask] or other special accessories that are inconvenient to wear at all times inside. These items will appear on our body surface in the form of 'branded marks', directly providing us with the power of the items without taking up physical wearing space."

Rokusuke Koenji stroked his chin:

"Oh? That's an elegant and practical feature. However..."

He looked at Horikita: "Are these new features you mentioned only limited to the few of us who passed the preliminary test, or are they shared by the entire school?"

Horikita Suzune shook her head:

"Naturally, it's a school-wide update. However, this feature is hidden in a submenu on the evaluation page and needs to be manually activated to be enabled."

"If I hadn't habitually reviewed the evaluation and summary of gains and losses after the exam, I might not have noticed this detail."
