Bai Yuan said, “It's fine if these group members haven't done anything bad; they'll just be kicked out of the group. But if they break the rules and do things they shouldn't, they'll be eliminated directly.”
“But you two don't have to worry. As dungeon bosses, you'll probably spend most of your time in your dungeons, so it's basically impossible for anyone to look for you.”
Zuo Lin'an nodded. As expected, these two were very clear about dungeon bosses.
“Are you two also...?”
Bai Yuan nodded. “Yes, it's not a secret. Many members in the group are, too. It's just that everyone doesn't usually talk about this. After all, the original purpose of this chat group has nothing to do with dungeons.”
Zuo Lin'an nodded and glanced at Xu Youyou. He saw that this guy was already chatting with the other boy, Song Yangxia, and they were very engrossed.
Xu Youyou suddenly turned to look at him. “Brother An, I created a group. Take a look.”
Zuo Lin'an took out his phone. If there were no surprises...
Yes, indeed, it was another new group.
There were only the four of them in the group.
Zuo Lin'an was a bit speechless. If they met other people in the future, would they have to create another new group?
He opened his private two-person group with Xu Youyou.
【Zuo Lin'an: Can you even keep track of them all? Don't cry when you send a message to the wrong group one day.】
【Xu Youyou: Don't worry, don't worry. I changed the group nicknames. There's absolutely no way I'll mistake them.】
Zuo Lin'an took a look.
The private group between him and Xu Youyou had been renamed to 【Good Brothers for Life】.
Wait, did the two of them even need to create a group?
Couldn't they just chat directly?
The three-person group with An Mu had been changed to 【Two Guys Paired with One Girl】.
What on earth was that?
The last four-person group was 【Starry Group Four-Person Subgroup】.
This one was quite normal.
True, they had just met Bai Yuan and Song Yangxia, so they definitely couldn't go too wild.
Each of these names was very distinct. As long as one wasn't blind, they wouldn't mistake them.
Only... did An Mu really not mind?
Sure enough, An Mu quickly noticed the change in the chat group's name and sent a message directly to question Xu Youyou.
【Xu Youyou: My bad, my bad. I'll change it right away.】
As a result, he just removed one word and changed it to 【Two Guys, One Girl】.
【An Mu: Are you sick? You're really hopeless.】
Although she said so, she didn't continue to dwell on it.
Xu Youyou didn't mind An Mu either. He continued to chat happily with Song Yangxia about something, mostly information regarding the Starry Chat Group.
For example, the responsibilities of group members, what they needed to do in the future, how to do it, whether there were any requirements, and so on.
However, as they talked, they somehow got onto the topic of their family situations.
Song Yangxia said, “My family? I have an older brother who is also in the group, just like me. His name is Song Yuqiu. Look...”
Zuo Lin'an subconsciously glanced at his phone and found that there was indeed someone named Song Yuqiu in the group.
Oh?
He also saw Bai Yuan's name, and above it, there was a Bai Mo.
Could these two also be brothers?
Zuo Lin'an didn't ask further. He didn't have Xu Youyou's silver tongue.
“Lunch is ready.”
Hearing Zheng Mei's call, they stood up and went to the dining room.
After the meal.
Outside the front door.
Song Yangxia looked at Zuo Lin'an with a face full of smiles. “Brother An, Ayuan and I have other things to do, so we'll head out first.”
Bai Yuan was the same. “Brother An, if you need anything in the future, you can find me in the subgroup. I'll definitely reply in a second!”
“...Uh, sure.”
After the two of them left, Zuo Lin'an turned to look at Xu Youyou with a strange expression. “What exactly did you say to them? Why are they both calling me Brother An?”
Xu Youyou showed a triumphant smile.
“Because when I was chatting with them earlier, I kept calling you Brother An. They got influenced by me. But they clearly have unusual backgrounds, so isn't it good that they call you Brother An?”
In fact, it was because he had told them about Zuo Lin'an's experiences at the training base, especially how he formulated the execution methods and his subsequent swift killing process in Sin Hunter City.
When those two heard it, they immediately thought he was a genius.
Zuo Lin'an saw through his guilty conscience but didn't press further. “Forget it, it's no big deal anyway. Let's go to the school this afternoon to see our homeroom teacher.”
Xu Youyou replied, “Great!”
“By the way, do you want to go to the mall to buy some daily necessities to bring over to the dungeon? I noticed you have very few personal belongings at your place.”
Zuo Lin'an nodded, then shook his head.
“We can buy a few temporary things, no need to buy too much. Once we're not short on money in a while, we can directly buy the best stuff from the mall.”
Xu Youyou thought about it and agreed.
“Alright then.”
The two of them took some time in the afternoon to visit the school. Only after arriving did they realize that the third-year students were already on break.
Most of the teachers were not at school either.
It made sense; now that the college entrance exam was over, the third-years had definitely left.
But just as they were about to leave, they happened to see Liu Gaomei walking out from inside.
“Why are you two here?”
Xu Youyou smiled and walked over.
“Homeroom teacher, aren't we here to personally share our good news with you?”
Liu Gaomei smiled.
“You two are indeed thoughtful.”
“And you came at just the right time. I happened to have some business at school today, otherwise you wouldn't have run into me.”
She took the two of them to a cafe near the school.
She ordered some small cakes and sweet coffee.
“You two are still kids, so have something sweet.”
Looking at the pink and delicate cake in front of him, Zuo Lin'an still took a bite.
It was indeed delicious, after all, it was sweet.
But he didn't like sweets.
Liu Gaomei asked, “When you were in Sin Hunter City before, was it...?”
Xu Youyou smiled and talked about their previous experiences.
Of course, they were all beautified versions. No matter what the process was, the result was good anyway.
Liu Gaomei listened quietly until they finished.
“You probably don't know yet, but Lingyang First High School has been selected as a National War Dungeon. A Four-Star difficulty National War Dungeon. At that time, we will need some student NPCs. You two should come and guest star.”
Xu Youyou's eyes instantly widened.
“Huh? Us?”
“But we're dungeon bosses now. If we go to the school to guest star as NPC students, what if players who cleared it get assigned to our dungeons later?”
Liu Gaomei shook her head. “It's fine. Once the dungeon opens, your appearance will change slightly. At most, it will only look about fifty percent like your current appearance.”
Zuo Lin'an asked, “Teacher, is the number of student NPCs not enough?”
Liu Gaomei looked a bit troubled. “Yes. Because this time, the National War Dungeon is temporarily set to have three thousand players. Every five hundred players will be one batch, divided into six batches. Each batch needs to be matched with five hundred student NPCs.”
Xu Youyou asked, “So it's like splitting the player traffic like in a game?”
“Can't they just go batch by batch in chronological order? Do they have to open at the same time?”
Liu Gaomei replied, “They must open at the same time. I'm not too clear about the specific reason either.”
