Danrito, become a consultant for the Millennium Game!

"!!!"

Xiaochun blew himself up!

"Haha~ That's really interesting."

Hanako finally couldn't help laughing, seeing Koharu blushing due to the teasing, but she couldn't blame Danrito because she had said it all herself. She could only pull down her ear feathers to cover her eyes, pretending that she couldn't see anything.

Seeing the atmosphere around them visibly relax, Danrito pointed at the Sphinx statue and said, "Touch that, and the game will begin."

201. Open answer! (4k)

Seeing the atmosphere around them visibly relax, Danrito pointed at the Sphinx statue and said, "Touch that, and the game will begin."

"Eh? Can I just touch this?" Hifumi looked curiously at the Sphinx statue in the center of the square. "This thing looks so weird. It has a human head but a dog's body."

"That's not a dog's body, it's a lion's body," Hanako corrected. "That's the 'Sphinx' mentioned in the ancient texts of Kivotos. It's said to have originated in ancient Abydos."

"You've said too much, haven't you?" Xiaochun reached out and touched it: "This is enough, right?"

When Xiaochun reached out to touch the sculpture in front of her, she disappeared with a cry of surprise, and seemed to be teleported to the private room where she completed the game.

"Has Xiaochun been... teleported?" Hifumi calmed herself down and reached out her hand, "Let me touch it too—"

When Hifumi touched the Sphinx, she felt a flash of light around her body. The space around her was rapidly changing, but in the blink of an eye, Hifumi was teleported to her own puzzle room by the Sphinx on the white platform.

The pure white space seemed to stretch out infinitely, stretching out into the distance where Hifumi's gaze vanished. This was the blank puzzle room. Before the mechanism was activated, it was empty, devoid of anything.

"Woooaa! You scared me!"

After being transported to this empty room, Hifumi looked around curiously. "It's huge... but there's nothing here. Can I still study here?"

If we just want them to study quietly, wouldn't it be completely unnecessary to create such a large space?

"Hello, test subject."

An electronic screen unfolded in front of Hifumi, displaying information in front of Hifumi using an electronic light screen and text instead of sound.

"Huh? Is this talking to me?"

Hifumi looked curiously at the dialog box in front of her, and the dialog box replied smoothly, "Yes, tester. I am the collapser of the "Sphinx Mystery" cartridge, responsible for managing all puzzles and reward and punishment systems that appear in the game."

"Now, I'm going to give you a little test to get the reward you desire. For the fun of the game and your learning progress, I hope you can answer truthfully."

"Huh? A test right off the bat?" Hifumi asked curiously, "Will there be any punishment if I answer incorrectly?"

"Rest assured, all punishments will be kept within a reasonable range and primarily focused on rewards," the Collapse explained to Hifumi. "Due to the Creator's orders, this cartridge prioritizes 'learning mode' over 'fun mode,' so everything revolves around 'performance improvement.'"

"This cartridge will use the most direct rewards and punishments to stimulate test takers and help them improve their test scores."

Then, the collapsing body presented a problem to Hifumi.

"What's your favorite thing?"

When asked what her favorite thing was, Hifumi didn't hesitate for even a second before blurting out the answer, "It's Pelolo-sama!"

Hifumi has the most specific understanding of her own preferences, which is that she likes all kinds of Peloro. This answer is undoubtedly the most suitable answer reference for this collapse.

"Search for keywords—analysis complete, a fairly concrete answer. That concludes the question."

So, the Collapse in the puzzle room began to manipulate the data of the game space and prepared various Peloros for Hifumi as her question-and-answer teachers.

Fat Peloro, skinny Peloro, Peloro with glasses, Peloro dressed as a thief, Gigantamax Pelorosla—appeared in this empty room.

The scenery in the room also began to change, transforming into a small Peloro Park. In this Peloro theme park, which is completely invisible to the outside world, all kinds of Peloros are walking around happily.

"Is this heaven?"

The reward for Hifumi was the interaction between these active Peloros and her. At the same time, in order to motivate Hifumi, the collapsing body also arranged for a talking Peloro to give Hifumi individual lessons.

To receive such a reward, it was like heaven to Hifumi. Her eyes lit up as she watched the room around her transform into a paradise for Peloro!

"Wow—so many Peloros! And some I've never seen before! They all move!"

Hifumi blinked, "Besides, if I can pass the test, I'll get a reward of playing with these Peloro-samas, right!?"

The collapsing plasmoid agreed: "Yes, it is exactly what you think, tester."

Not much different from Hifumi's experience, after Koharu touched the Sphinx statue, she was also teleported to her own puzzle room.

She looked around curiously, and then, after briefly introducing their game, the Sphinx Mystery's Collapse Progenitor asked her the same question: "What's your favorite thing?"

After thinking for a moment, Xiaochun's face turned red.

"Well, well! Anyway, do I really have to say it out loud?"

Xiaochun stammered and her face turned red as if water was about to drip out.

"To promote learning outcomes, reward and punishment measures must be in place." The Collapse Body advised: "You need to answer me honestly, what kind of reward do you hope to receive."

"Okay, okay..."

Xiaochun reluctantly and hesitantly said what she liked. But before saying it, Xiaochun asked about the confidentiality measures.

"Well, um...are you doing anything about keeping it secret?"

“The data collected by this game is stored locally and is only used as data for analyzing user preference models.”

"Is that so? That's good..."

Xiaochun hesitated for a long time and thought a lot. In order to be able to experience rewards that are more in line with his preferences in the future, he still told her his preferences after the kind reminder of the Collapse Body.

"In order to completely ban H-things! So! I want to—"

Although she didn't say it directly, Xiaochun, who imagined these things, felt good about exposing herself.

"Okay, data analysis has been completed for the test subject. Data generation is in progress—"

Then, Koharu's room immediately became [DATA EXPUNGED]. It was filled with a lot of embarrassing things, and this was just the "information" that was extended from the reward that Koharu requested.

"Wow wow wow wow wow...what a blasphemy!"

Koharu's ear feathers instinctively covered her face, but it was all for naught. The gap between the ear feathers was so wide you could almost run a train!

"Oh? ...It's full of meaningless procedures."

Hanako didn't seem panicked at all when she was teleported. She had long since realized this was a game, and she was one of the first to bring a gaming mindset to the game.

"The room stretches out endlessly... It's so huge! If it were half a small one..."

However, before Hanako could analyze anything from this room, the virtual dialog box appeared again.

"What's your favorite thing?"

Hanako is a very bright student. She is so smart that she can complete the third-grade curriculum in the first grade and is even chosen as the host of the next tea party.

Such a person should not have appeared in the supplementary course department from the beginning, and should even be in the top wise seat of the Holy Trinity.

However, Hanako was disgusted by the factional fighting within the Holy Trinity.

"That child must be won over to our faction no matter what. Do you have any ideas, Hanako?"

"Now is the time to use your wisdom. Hanako, that faction's activities have been a bit more frequent this month. How about suppressing them?"

Once upon a time, Hanako was also one of them, but she finally felt tired of this long-lasting open and secret struggles.

There are countless factions within Trinity. Although it has created a system such as the "Tea Party" to solve the problem, Trinity's efficiency in handling such conflicts can only be described as tragic.

"Being a student doesn't mean anything, does it? It's better to just leave school than be bound by the chaotic relationships of various small groups."

So, Hanako started to treat various exams negatively, not answering the questions properly and deliberately giving bad results to get single-digit scores.

"So, what is your favorite thing?"

The Collapse Body continued to ask, "Please answer carefully. This is related to the improvement of your learning progress."

But unfortunately, Hanako had no intention of showing her full strength just like that, and she didn't seem very reassured about the game cartridge that Danrito took out.

"Ah, as expected, it has to be something like ○○, right?"

Hanako made up her mind and decided to talk about something that would not pass the review to see how far the collapser in front of her could go.

“Actually, my favorite thing is ○○~”

"I understand. I have already started preparing for you—"

Hanako's mouth dropped open slightly. "Is that even possible? But, if I don't answer any questions, I can watch this game endlessly, right?"

Hanako made up her mind that this game did not require her to answer any questions, so she could just not answer any questions.

In the last room, the white-haired girl Zi was thinking about the questions that popped up on the screen in front of her.

When asked, "What is your favorite thing?", Zi couldn't answer.

Pelolo? Or sweets? Zi thought a lot, but in the end, Zi's thoughts were defeated by nothingness.

She shook her head and said, "Everything is nothing, so there is nothing I really like."

As the person in charge of the "Sphinx Mystery" cassette, the Collapser naturally wasn't stumped by this topic. It changed the subject and asked again: "What do you desire?"

"I……"

Azusa's mind was full of thoughts, and her memories fell on her captain Saori, as well as the other team members. She also recalled her life at Trinity Academy, and thought about her purpose in coming to Trinity. Finally, she spoke hesitantly.

"I...want everyone to be happy."

Bai Zhouzi, has a small wish.

Who said "everything is nothing"? Even though he said this, Bai Zhouzi was not very receptive to this statement. After all, who really doesn't care about something?

This time, the Sphinx's Mystery's Collapse Org fell silent.

Azusa doesn't have her own favorite things, but she cherishes the ties she has with her, whether it's the captain she met at Arius or everyone she met at Trinity Academy.

"I... don't have anything I like, but I don't want everyone to lose what they like."

Zi didn't know what was wrong with him, or maybe because this was just a game that no one knew about, Zi finally had the words to express what had been weighing on his heart.

"I don't want everyone to fight each other."

"Whether it's the Arians or the Holy Trinity, I... don't want to see this cruel reality."

The Collapsogen stopped for a moment, and finally, it gave an impossible task that sounded extremely tempting:

"If you can successfully complete this game, the power of the Mystery of the Sphinx cartridge will be yours."

The question bank on the "Mystery of the Sphinx" cassette is a question bank created by Danrito by completely incorporating Trinity's teaching materials. It might as well be called "Trinity Learning Pass", something that makes one's scalp tingle just by hearing it.

The so-called "passing the game" in this game means completing their studies - and that is learning beyond their current level.

As a second-year student, Zi could only get 30 points on the first-year test. It is really hard to evaluate him - but considering that Zi may have never received systematic learning in the previous school, it is understandable that his written results are so poor.

However, since it is a game cartridge, even if it is a learning version for internal use, Danrito has to take the gameplay into consideration. How does that saying go?

"Games, let's make them fun first. If they're not fun, can they still be called games?"

Danrito was very satisfied with the "Mystery of the Sphinx" cartridge he had just produced. Even though it was an internal version, it fully covered the exam content while also taking into account the gameplay as much as possible.

When the official version is released, Danrito will delete the high-difficulty question bank and only leave questions at the general textbook level for lower grades in each school district.

There will also be restrictions on the reward mechanism - Xiaochun can be said to be enjoying an out-of-print service.

"This way, studying textbooks and doing tests becomes a rewarding game." Tan Lidou nodded with satisfaction. "Everyone in the cram school might be exhausted, but no one will fall behind!"

Leaving the four students in the game space, Danrito turned around and left the game.

"I just provided the game's next test items. As for learning, I'll just wait for them to thoroughly understand the learning materials themselves~"

202. Addicted to learning!

About a class period passed, and as the quiz game on the cartridge ended and the game area was closed, Hifumi and the other three were forced out.

"Hey, where's my teacher Pelolo?"

Hifumi still kept raising her hand to answer questions in class, as if she had not yet turned away from the field of games.

"Looks like the class is over, Hifumi-san." Hanako's face still looked a little red, but she was still somewhat calm, in stark contrast to Koharu's dizzy look with circles in her eyes.

"That's a shame, isn't it, Koharu-kun?"
