Chapter 25: Goto Ichiri: Don’t do that kind of thing!

Chiyoda-ku, inside an apartment.

Qin Tian was also preparing to go out to Shuchiin Academy.

However, unlike the last time he went out, perhaps because of the wrong time, Qin Tian did not meet Bai Yingui again this time.

Instead, this time it was a figure on a bicycle passing by his door.

Shirogane Miyuki is the male protagonist in Kaguya-sama: Love is War and the older brother of Shirogane Kei. Due to staying up late for a long time, his eyes look a little sharp, but he is essentially a humble and hardworking person, the typical child of other people's family in the eyes of his parents.

However, unlike the original novel where he appeared as the president of the student union, they are still in the first year of high school at this time. At this stage, Shirogane Miyuki's grades are not that outstanding. He is still in the stage of studying hard and accumulating knowledge in order to successfully ascend to the top of the grade in the future.

"Good morning."

"You too, good morning."

After greeting Baiyin Yuxing who was passing by the door, Qin Tian walked towards the station, wondering in his heart whether he should improve his relationship with the Baiyin family.

"Well, let's find some time to visit the Baiyin family this weekend."

No matter what, the Shirogane family is the protagonist's family in the original work of Kaguya-sama: Love is War. There is definitely nothing wrong with having a good relationship with them. After all, the Shirogane family is not a bad person. Among all the daily-type Japanese comic protagonists, Shirogane Miyuki has a better reputation.

"Also, maybe I should get a part-time job?"

To be honest, Qin Tian’s current economic situation is not optimistic. After all, his identity in this world is that he has lost both parents, no sister, no house, and nothing except an identity certificate to ensure that he is not an illegal resident.

Although there was some money, it was not much. It could only support Qin Tian's expenses for half a month at most.

But this does not mean that Qin Tian has no money. On the contrary, with the current balance of tens of thousands of energy points in the system, Qin Tian can easily make the balance in his bank card reach an exaggerated number by taking out any energy points, whether it is to create gold or directly make money.

The biggest reason why I want to find a part-time job is to match my own personality.

After all, you are an ordinary student with no source of income. You never work but always have enough money to spend. After a long time, anyone who checks carefully will find that something is wrong.

For the time being, Qin Tian's identity is still just an ordinary person. Although he wants to change his identity to a dream player at the right time, it is not now.

After all, there are still too few dream players right now, and at this time, hastily changing one's identity into a dream player will also attract attention.

You have to wait until the number of dream players gradually increases and some players begin to emerge, before you can integrate into the player group as a dream player without being abrupt.

Therefore, a temporary job that suits one's identity is still necessary, which can improve one's personality and provide a relatively reasonable source of income.

But not now, it’s better to look for a job on weekends.

In this way, as Qin Tian took the tram to school, the day passed slowly in classes.

For Qin Tian, ​​it was a peaceful day. Except for the lunch break when Hayasaka Ai accidentally spoke to him while trying to find dream players in the academy according to Shinomiya Kaguya's instructions, and asked him indirectly whether he knew any information about the dream space, but was fooled by Qin Tian, ​​nothing special happened.

In the evening, after finishing dinner, Qin Tian sat in a chair and began to wait quietly for time to come.

Finally, at nine o'clock in the evening, Qin Tian opened his eyes and cast his gaze into the dream space.

At this time, the four players have already entered the dream copy and started a new round of strategy.

Inside the copy, school.

In the familiar classroom, Kaguya Shinomiya opened her eyes again, got up from the floor, and then easily flipped out the steel pipe in the corner.

This is already the third round for her and Hayasaka Ai, and it can be said that Shinomiya Kaguya has become quite proficient in using this steel pipe.

He walked out of the classroom with Hayasaka Ai beside him. This time, the two did not take the side stairs, but went directly down to the second floor from the stairs in the middle of the corridor. Then they cleared out the zombies on the second floor and climbed out of the teaching building through the window.

Since Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka had each killed a Licker in the previous round, although they died at the hands of the Tyrant in the end, they can still claim the rewards for the completed tasks even if they exit the dungeon.

During the day, the two of them had completed the attribute points addition outside the copy. Hayasaka Ai added attribute points to agility, while Shinomiya Kaguya added attribute points to spirit.

Mental attributes can enhance memory and willpower, allowing people to face various crises more calmly, and will also take effect in some special circumstances.

Although Kaguya Shinomiya still doesn't know what the so-called special situations are, even the first three effects are enough.

Ever since learning about the Tyrant in the monster encyclopedia, Kaguya Shinomiya determined that the Tyrant and the source of the zombie virus in this copy were very likely to trigger a hidden mission.

For this reason, Kaguya Shinomiya added the attribute points of this reward to the spiritual aspect, in order to try to find the information hidden in the dark.

After receiving the mission rewards, the side quests of Kaguya Shinomiya and Hayasaka Ai were refreshed again. The new side quest required killing three lickers.

Therefore, after leaving the teaching building, the two did not leave the school immediately like they did in the previous week, but walked towards the cafeteria.

In the first round, the two were killed by a Licker there, achieving a double kill.

And now, it's time for revenge.

......

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the mall, Goto Ichiri, who had just woken up, sat up and stared blankly at the familiar scene in front of him. His eyes were filled with confusion, astonishment, stupor, and a hint of disbelief. He almost fainted on the spot.

"Why am I back here again?"

On the side, Kato Megumi also slowly stood up.

"Isn't this a matter of course? Since the rewards obtained here can be brought to reality, and the player panel can also be opened in reality, then of course we can't just enter the dungeon once."

"Even if we clear this dungeon, we will most likely have to conquer other dungeons in the future, right?"

Just think about it and you will know that a place with such complete functions and mechanisms is definitely not meant for them to experience once and then leave.

As early as when she discovered these things in reality, Kato Megumi had already prepared to come back here again. Anyway, no matter how much they resisted, they couldn't refuse, right?

After listening to Kato Megumi's explanation, Goto Ichiri's complexion began to turn gloomy.

She thought that once she came to this kind of place, she would never have to come again, but now, according to Kato Megumi's explanation...

In other words, do I have to come to this dangerous place every day?

No, don't do this! It's enough to have such a terrible experience once. Don't go through it every day.

"Okay, let's not think about it for now. Let's find a way to leave here as soon as possible."

"Remember the Monster Manual that we opened when we killed the zombies for the first time? Now it has been updated with the information of the monster that killed us before."

Although Kato Megumi herself died of a virus infection in the previous round instead of being killed by the Tyrant, the Tyrant was also involved in the killing process.

It was precisely because of the severe damage suffered by the Tyrant that Kato Megumi was injured by zombies while escaping in the previous round. In terms of contribution, the Tyrant had at least 50% of the credit.

"According to the information in the illustration, the Tyrant will purposefully hunt down players. Maybe he's already heading our way. If we don't find a way to leave this mall as soon as possible, we'll end up repeating the same mistake we made last week."

"Goto-san, you don't want to die at the hands of that monster again, do you?"

Chapter 26: Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka seek revenge, Megumi Kato and Ichiri Goto are hunted

"Goto-san, you don't want to die at the hands of that monster again, do you?"

After hearing what Kato Megumi said, Goto Ichiri, who had been gradually turning into a line on the spot, instantly returned to his original state.

That's right, since she couldn't refuse to enter the dungeon, she would at least live a few more days in the dungeon.

Although the strategy copy might be very dangerous, Goto Ichiri chose to die later rather than die now.

In this way, Kato Megumi and Goto Ichiri searched around for two weapons, and then the two left the current floor and began to leave the mall.

......

The perspective returns to the school.

At this time, Kaguya Shinomiya and Hayasaka Ai had already arrived at the cafeteria kitchen. The two looked at each other, and then Hayasaka Ai stood quietly on a table, looking at the ceiling of the kitchen above her head from a higher perspective.

Sure enough, in a hidden corner of the ceiling in the back kitchen, Hayasaka Ai saw a licker hiding there, lying motionless.

She made a gesture to Kaguya Shinomiya to confirm that the location of the licker had been found. Then the two of them clenched their weapons. Hayasaka Ai knocked on the table with the kitchen knife she got from the kitchen, and the sound immediately attracted the attention of the licker.

However, the licker had just appeared, and the next second, with her agility attribute of 3.3 and strength attribute of 2.2, Hayasaka Ai came directly to the licker and kicked it off the wall it was climbing.

The moment he landed on the ground, steel pipes and kitchen knives were swung towards the licker.

The attacked Licker wanted to fight back angrily, but was easily avoided by Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai, who were already familiar with the attack routine.

Not long after, the culprit who caused the death of two people in the first round fell to the ground.

"let's go."

After confirming that the target had been killed, Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai quickly left the school.

Whether it was the possibility that the sound of the two fighting the Lickers would attract the attention of the zombies on the playground, or the tyrant's pursuit, the school was clearly not a safe place to stay for too long.

After leaving school, relying on the memory left over from observing the map in the previous round, Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai headed towards the northwest.

The threat from the tyrant is what needs to be eliminated most right now, otherwise there will be huge hidden dangers no matter what the two do in the copy.

And based on the strength shown by the Tyrant in the previous round, it is nothing but a pipe dream for the two to defeat each other with weapons such as steel pipes or baseball bats.

If you want to kill a tyrant, you must rely on modern weapons.

Firearms are undoubtedly the best choice.

Although Japan does not have the same gun freedom as America, where every police officer is equipped with a gun, there should still be some gun reserves in Japan's police stations.

It shouldn't be a problem to provide it for both of them.

.......

Commercial street, in front of the shopping mall.

Due to the experience of escaping from the mall in the previous round, under the leadership of Kato Megumi, Kato Megumi and Goto Ichiri successfully escaped from the mall.

Standing in front of the mall, before the two of them could think about where to go next, a familiar sound of footsteps sounded from not far away.

At one end of the street, a tyrant in a black windbreaker was seen walking slowly from a distance.

The sturdy body ignored the zombies around it, and anything that dared to block its way was beaten into mud with a punch.

After looking at the two people who had just escaped from the front of the mall, the tyrant's sharp gaze instantly locked on the two of them.

"run!"

Having experienced being chased by a tyrant in the previous round, Kato Megumi knew very well what would happen next, and immediately pulled Goto Ichiri all the way to the other end of the street.

Behind him, the tyrant's tall body was like a rampaging armored vehicle, striding towards the two with heavy steps.

Feeling the footsteps approaching from behind, Kato Megumi and Goto Ichiri quickly turned into an alley.

Suddenly, there was a loud roar, and I saw that the walls on both sides of the alley were not wide enough to accommodate the tyrant's tall body, so they continued to collapse under the tyrant's power.

But at the same time, these collapsed walls also successfully blocked the tyrant's steps and bought time for Kato Megumi and Goto Ichiri who were fleeing.

"Quick, let's hide in here."

While the tyrant was blocked in the alley, Kato Megumi found a manhole, immediately opened the manhole cover, and hid inside with Goto Ichiri.

The tyrant's tall and strong body made it difficult for the opponent to enter some narrow places, so just like using the alleys to block the tyrant's steps, at this time they only needed to hide in the sewers, and the tyrant would not be able to catch up for a while.

Quickly entering the sewer, the roaring sound coming from above soon subsided.

Apparently, after discovering that he couldn't enter the sewer, the tyrant temporarily gave up chasing the two men.

However, the two did not go up again. After all, who knew if the tyrant was waiting for them up there?

"It looks like we can only return to the ground through other exits."

Looking at the exit above her head thoughtfully, Kato Megumi then turned to look at Goto Ichiri beside her.

"Be careful. If I remember correctly, there should be some dangers here as well."

In the previous round, Kato Megumi hid in the sewer when facing the tyrant's pursuit, so she has a certain understanding of the situation here.

In comparison, Goto Ichiri seemed to know nothing about this place.

"Um, Kato-san, what do you mean by danger..."

"It's the danger from the water."

I stared at the sewage flowing in the sewer. The turbid water was pitch black and I had no idea what was inside.

Fortunately, there were stone platforms on both sides for people to walk on, otherwise Kato Megumi would never come down no matter what.

Not because it's dirty, but because...

Whoosh!

A sound of breaking water was heard, and a mutant creature that looked like a long leech jumped out of the water and pounced towards the two.

Fortunately, Kato Megumi was quick-witted and swift-handed, and swung the weapon in her hand to hit the opponent back.
