Ark Simulator, don't I have no physical form?

If you only look at this, it really is just a debate spontaneously organized by students. The difference is that these students are holding weapons used for fighting, and behind the debate representatives, all the students look eager to join in.

"This is a tradition in Ursus. When students can't win a debate, they resort to physical means to defeat their opponents."

Talulah was somewhat surprised that Suri didn't know this. After bringing Alina to a classroom that had been modified by the Reunion Movement, she sat down and began to explain to Suri with a smile.

"...No, I need to message Frostnova and tell her to clean things up. How can the students not study properly? I need to drag them all back to class! It's just too unruly. The students aren't attending class and are fighting everywhere. What kind of behavior is this?!"

Suri's tone was somewhat exasperated, which made Talulah find it rather amusing:

"Why? Don't you really like fighting and things like that?"

After Talulah finished speaking, Suri paused for a moment, took a deep breath to compose herself, and then slowly began to speak:

"...First of all, I don't like brawling, I like fighting. Secondly, my previous stereotypes about schools and students made me overlook the special characteristics of Ursus students, or perhaps all students in Terra are this peculiar."

As Su Rui spoke, she took another deep breath, as if suppressing her emotions:

"In the end, I wasn't wrong. Shouldn't students be studying hard? They haven't been attending classes properly since they were captured, have they? Negotiations will take some time. Frostnova can't really just leave them to fend for themselves like this, can she?"

Talulah nodded: "What you said makes sense, but why do I always feel that your words are tinged with personal emotions?"

Alina, who was next to her, could also hear Suri's voice in her earphones. Xiaolu looked at the scene Suri was showing on her phone, her eyes first showing some worry, but then she smiled because of Suri's words.

"Of course I didn't! Never mind, of course I have my own feelings!"

Su Rui initially retorted somewhat unhappily, but then he realized he had been too obvious, so he simply gave up and told the truth:

“I’ve suffered a lot from attending classes before, so why should these students be able to play around in the stadium so happily, and even fight? They all need to go to class!”

Moreover, after realizing that she had some misconceptions about the students of Ursus, Su Rui specifically searched for information and picked out a few typical examples from among the students.

For example, there's the Ursus girl with short brown hair and a touch of red highlights, named Sonia, who is known as the Winter General.

"Especially her, she's a habitual truant and brawler! Let's call her Winter, I'm going to have Froststar make sure she's arrested and then give her a good dressing down!"

Talulah's smile grew even brighter, and she exchanged a glance with Alina, who was also smiling beside her. Their smiles became even more cheerful.

However, Suri didn't pay attention to any of that, and instead glanced at Frostnova's situation.

Yes, Frostnova is currently restoring order after taking control of Chernobog, following Suri's plan, and is urging citizens to return to normal work and life, assuring them that she will not threaten their lives.

This is a necessary step. Although Suri loves killing, in this situation, what the infected need is coexistence, not to make the already bad impression of the infected on Terra even worse.

In other words, Frostnova has quite a bit of free time right now. After all, with Su Rui's plans in place, she doesn't have much to worry about.

Then, Suri spoke through Froststar's walkie-talkie, which was still on:

"Froststar, are you free now?"

"Su Rui? Of course, is there something you want to tell me?"

Froststar's eyes flashed with information. She glanced at the various plans that were progressing smoothly in the city hall office, picked up the walkie-talkie, and walked towards the window.

"There's something very important I need to tell you."

Su Rui's tone was serious: "Isn't there a computer in your office? Turn it on and I'll show it to you."

"I see."

Froststar nodded, turned on the power, and the computer did not enter the operating interface. Instead, it was directly controlled by Su Rui, displaying the current situation of the students who were gathered together.

Volume 2, Chapter 102: I Will Promulgate a New Method of Teaching

Froststar looked at the screen that Su Rui was showing, which depicted a group of students who had gone from debating to exchanging physics ideas, along with the students around them who were either chatting and watching or cheering them on. She was somewhat puzzled.

"what happened?"

"This is what I wanted to say: you all neglect the education of your students, or rather, apart from the nobility and a few intelligent individuals, the vast majority of the country adopts a hands-off approach to education."

Suri's tone was very dissatisfied: "I think this is something that needs to be changed. Students should study hard. Of course, I'm not saying they shouldn't rest, but at least they should have classes every day."

As she spoke, Su Rui marked the teachers who had originally been assigned to be locked up with the students but were no longer working:

“From now on, this movement must also focus on the education of students. Now that the livelihood of Chernobog has been restored, the normal life of students must also be restored. No matter how much fighting there is, students still have to go to school.”

As Suri spoke, she casually highlighted several Ursus students who were typical examples of truancy, especially that one named Winter:

"These students are all stubborn and difficult to teach. I suggest you observe them closely!"

“…I understand, but Su Rui, I always feel that you’re saying these things not just for the students’ future.”

Froststar sat in the chair, watching Suri present the documents one by one. Although she agreed with Suri's ideas, she couldn't help but notice that Suri's emotions were a bit off.

However, it was clear that Suri was just throwing a tantrum. Picking up her walkie-talkie, Frostnova began to arrange for people to handle these tasks.

While Froststar was explaining things, Suri didn't hide her own situation:

“My performance was obvious, wasn’t it? The reason is simple: my previous school life was too painful, so they had to make me suffer like that too.”

That's what Suri thought, for a simple reason, even with malice, but Frostnova couldn't help but laugh.

"What's so funny? This is a good thing for those students too."

"Yes, you're right."

Frostnova covered her mouth, but couldn't suppress the smile that appeared between her brows and eyes.

"...Alright, besides that, there's one more thing. I've noticed the actions on the Ursus side. The military nobles are actually led by Talulah, so they're a bit undecided right now. But the new nobles want to target you. As for the Ursus emperor, he's already sent an envoy to negotiate."

As Su Rui spoke, he casually pulled Talulah into the meeting. Talulah could directly see the information Su Rui was displaying, and Frostnova could also communicate with Talulah and Su Rui through the computer screen in front of her.

"What we need to do is negotiate with the special envoy sent by the Emperor of Ursus. With Talulah as a major bargaining chip, and a bunch of nobles as bargaining chips, the negotiation will not be difficult."

Afterwards, as long as Talulah continues to suppress those military nobles and incidentally give the new nobles a warning, there won't be any problems, and the situation in Chernobog will gradually stabilize.

Moreover, the Reunion Movement is now taking place in Chernobog, a mobile city with well-developed facilities.

Although Suri's scanning ability is centered on Talulah, it cannot be used here after Talulah leaves Chernobog.

However, for Suri, who can freely roam the online world and control everything through the internet, Chernobog is still a toy in his hands, and it won't be so easy for him to cause trouble here.

"I understand. So, what should we say then?"

"I'll take the lead in the negotiations then."

As Su Rui spoke, she casually showed a pair of headphones: "Frostnova will wear these headphones and use the methods I taught her to negotiate with the other party. By the way, you can also learn some related knowledge."

Although Suri didn't actually have much negotiation experience, he had plenty of information.

The scanning ability can reveal various aspects of the other party's situation, such as heart rate, body temperature, and other physical data that indicate emotions. Combined with sufficient negotiation knowledge, negotiation is quite simple for Sui.

Frostnova nodded, casually opened a bottle of vodka, took a swig, and continued listening to Suri's explanation. Noticing Talulah's gaze, she gestured to her, "Do you want some too?"

"No, not now."

Talulah declined Frostnova's invitation. Since they were communicating via video call online, it wasn't appropriate for them to have an event like a drinking party.

Under Su Rui's arrangement, the students were quickly gathered by the Reunion Movement team and assembled in the square, watching the people standing on the platform.

The teachers and principals from the past were also brought in and stood on the podium to convey information to the students.

Talulah, as a guest, was invited over and watched from a high platform not far away as a principal, who had been chosen to lead the speech, gave a presentation.

Although it was described as an exchange between teachers and students, Su Rui also expressed her opinions.

Before the principal could speak, Su Rui took control of the sound system and delivered a speech:

"Listen up, you little brats! This isn't the time for you to do whatever you want. From now on, you'll follow new rules!"

As she spoke, Suri deliberately made a page-turning sound, then pretended to be looking at the list and began to recount:

"From now on, fighting will require separate tutoring; skipping class will also require separate tutoring; daydreaming in class will require separate tutoring; disrupting the teacher's lesson will require separate tutoring; and also, being improperly dressed will require separate tutoring..."

Even when under the control of a violent organization like the Reunion Movement, some students still stood up to question Su Rui, which made Su Rui sigh with admiration. These free-range brats really had guts.

"So, what should we do if we don't get good exam results?"

Suri glanced at the Ursus student who was speaking, the one he considered a typical example of Winter. Winter's grades were a mess, which was probably why she brought up this question.

So, Suri couldn't help but want to, but for the sake of seriousness, he suppressed the smile on his lips before saying:

"Oh, right, if your grades aren't good, you'll need extra tutoring and a retake. Thanks, I'll write that down."

Then, Su Rui casually played the rustling sound of pen and paper, which immediately made Lin Dong, who had been smugly finding fault, feel somewhat embarrassed and dissatisfied.

Facing the gazes of the surrounding students, even Lin Dong felt a little embarrassed. However, she still had the prestige of General Dong, so she glared back with fierce eyes, scaring most of the students away. Only a few continued to stare at Lin Dong defiantly.

Then, they heard Suri's voice again:

"By the way, those who intimidate classmates also need to receive separate tutoring."

Volume 2, Chapter 103: I've been very merciful.

In this speech, Suri was indeed seriously emphasizing some things, such as the requirements for students.

However, the way Su Rui and Lin Dong echoed each other and Su Rui spoke made the teachers standing behind them smile.

Although the teachers knew that laughing in such a situation was probably not a good thing, they couldn't help but laugh no matter how hard they tried.

However, Suri didn't care, because after his speech, he returned the microphone to the school leaders who had been pulled out to manage the situation, and then focused his attention back on Talulah.

At that moment, as Talulah was watching the speech below, Frostnova came to her side and stood beside her, looking at the students below:

"Did you need something from me?"

“Yes, I think we need to hold a banquet, nothing too extravagant, just to appease these aristocratic students.”

"Why appease them? They're prisoners." Suri was already annoyed when Talulah finished speaking, and before Suri could reply, Talulah, as if possessed, said:

"These are prisoners we finally managed to get; we can't kill them all."

"...But isn't it a bit much to treat them like this? Isn't it already a huge favor to let them live?"

Suri was still somewhat dissatisfied, and Frostnova initially shared similar thoughts. However, after Suri spoke those words, she showed a thoughtful expression and then nodded.

"I understand. We should indeed appease the students. However, let's include all the students in the banquet, right here in this square, as a celebration for the start of the new school year?"

Talulah nodded, having no objection to Frostnova's suggestion; however, Suri was somewhat dissatisfied.

"If you just want to give these students a break, I have no objection. But, specifically, what is the purpose of those aristocratic students?"

In Su Rui's view, he held an absolute advantage and had no need to give those nobles any benefits. If given the chance, he would even like to get rid of all these potentially troublesome individuals.

Frostnova and Talulah had both anticipated Suri's reaction. After exchanging a glance, they both saw a knowing smile in each other's eyes.

However, behind their smiles, Frostnova and Talulah both felt a growing sense of apprehension towards each other.

'She knows Suri a little too well.' X2

Talulah explained with a smile:

“Although you can completely control Chernoborg, it’s not just the nobles who are watching Chernoborg now; the entire country is watching us. A little favor can make them lower their guard.”

"So, if they noticed that the prisoners were treated well, the nobles in other cities wouldn't have such strong resistance, right?"

Su Rui nodded and murmured to herself, "I didn't expect you to have thought so much about it."

Only Talulah could hear this. In fact, she was also somewhat surprised by Suri's idea. She hadn't thought that much about it; she just hoped to improve the situation for Reunion and Chernobog.

Raising the favorability of the surrounding nobles will at least allow Chernobog's resources and trade to proceed relatively normally.

Although on the surface the nobles will certainly make things difficult by adhering to the principle of uniting against external forces, behind the scenes, who wouldn't do a business that can make money?

This is why Talulah holds the banquet; even the most foolish merchant wouldn't sell the weapon that would kill him unless he could guarantee he wouldn't be killed.

Frostnova and Talulah's purpose was actually very simple, but Suri thought of some things because of their words.

Su Rui felt that he was too narrow-minded. After hearing Talulah's unintentional remark, Su Rui suddenly understood.

Although Talulah, the immortal black serpent, already wields considerable power in Chernobog, and could even be considered the de facto controller of Ursus.

However, this imperial crown still brings a great deal of influence and power, allowing Talulah to more easily control the country and better pave the way for the future.

"I see. I didn't expect you to have thought so far ahead. I will help you, Talulah."

A seemingly random thought that popped into Suri's head startled Talulah. However, having spent so much time with Suri, Talulah, though not understanding the abruptness of Suri's words, still smiled and nodded.

"Well, I see."

After that, Su Rui fell silent, too tired, and she and Froststar began to discuss the details of the evening party for the students.

After all, supplies still need to be consumed carefully. Chernobog is currently cut off from the outside world and will need some time to restore normal logistics and trade.

Meanwhile, after Talulah and Frostnova finished their conversation, Suri sent some messages into her mind.
