62: Chapter 62: Is it possible to hack into the system and delete my name?

Half an hour later, the Class F Abandoned Gymnasium.

The broadcast was looping the emergency notice that had the entire student body wailing; the cold, electronic voice echoed through the vast hall, sounding exceptionally heartless.

"...In summary, all freshman to junior students, please be prepared. Assemble in three days to head to the S-Rank Otherworldly Fragment [Mist Swamp] for a one-week field combat assessment..."

As the broadcast ended, the atmosphere in the Class F Gymnasium instantly split into two worlds.

The most relaxed were the seniors, who were ready to sit back and take it easy.

In the sofa area, Senior Ji Youyou elegantly crossed her legs, holding that cup of purple poison tea that terrified ordinary people, and gently blew on the steam.

"Oh my, what a pity!"

Senior Ji Youyou stroked the little white snake on her wrist, wearing a look of fake regret that screamed 'I really want to go, but the rules won't allow it,' and even winked at Jiang You:

"Seniors have to prepare for graduation assessments at school, what a shame. I heard there are many rare venomous insects in the swamp, the kind where one bite can make you rot for half a month. You juniors have thick skin, remember to catch a few for your big sister to soak in wine!"

Beside her, Qiu Yunan pushed up her glasses, blue electric arcs crackling on her body, and the air within a meter of her was filled with a burnt smell: "I can't go either. My thunder field has been too unstable lately. If I go, I might easily flatten the swamp, causing an irreversible ecological disaster, and I'd have to pay for it."

She looked at everyone helplessly: "Good luck everyone. If you encounter danger... remember to run fast!"

In the corner, Bai Zimo, curled up in a sleeping bag, didn't even lift his head, his fingers typing so fast they left afterimages as he engaged in an intense team battle: "Not going. The swamp has no signal, no internet, and latency as high as 999ms. For a gaming addict, that place is more terrifying than hell..."

"Healer! Where the hell is the healer! Save me!"

Compared to the seniors who were calmly watching the show, the rest of Class F looked like they had just received a critical condition notice.

Jiang You was slumped in his chair like a puddle of mud, holding a half-eaten bag of melon seeds, his eyes hollow, despairingly gazing at the spider-web-filled ceiling: "Why? On what grounds?"

"I've only been enrolled for two or three days! I haven't even figured out how many cafeterias the school has!"

"Why do I have to go to an S-Rank Forbidden Zone? Is that a place for humans to stay?"

Jiang You suddenly sat up straight and looked seriously at Bai Zimo's back: "Senior Bai! Your hacking skills are so awesome, can you hack into the academic affairs system and delete my name? Or change it to 'deceased' works too!"

Bai Zimo replied in the midst of his busy work: "Quiet, I'm backdoor pushing. Changing your name costs five million, no credit."

Jiang You: "..."

He slumped back down: "Then I might as well go to the swamp and feed the crocodiles."

On the other side, Gou Fugui was worrying about his inventory, looking pained: "Mist Swamp... that place is damp, with humidity over 90% all year round!"

"Many of my electronic products, and this batch of limited edition beauty photo albums, will get damp and lose value if I bring them in!"

"This is practically cutting off my livelihood!"

But after just three seconds, a sharp glint flashed behind Gou Fugui's glasses; his profiteer DNA had activated.

He slapped his thigh suddenly and pulled a pile of backlog inventory from his bag: "Wait! This is a business opportunity!"

"The swamp has many mosquitoes, high humidity, and difficult paths!"

"I can sell mosquito repellent! Sell disposable raincoats! Sell stilts to prevent sinking in the mud!"

"And this... powerful anti-diarrhea medicine! To prevent acclimatization issues! Brother Jiang, do you want to stock up on two boxes? I'll give you a 20% discount!"

Jiang You rolled his eyes: "Thanks, but no thanks. I choose to perform 'fighting poison with poison' on the spot in the swamp; maybe I'll even evolve an anti-miasma constitution."

That said, he still subconsciously glanced at the pile of colorful medicine boxes in Gou Fugui's hands: "But how long is the shelf life on this anti-diarrhea medicine? Don't let me get sent off by your expired medicine before I even get killed by the swamp."

Gou Fugui immediately patted his chest in assurance: "Don't worry, Brother Jiang! It's absolutely fresh off the press. I just got these near-expiry items at a 'friendship price' from a senior in the Healing Department last month. The efficacy is doubled, the price is halved, and the cost-performance ratio is super high!"

On the other side of the hall, Su Nuonuo was carrying her huge, patched-up teddy bear, her eyes shining with excitement as she hopped around in place: "Yay! Field training! Great!"

"I can't blow this up or that up at school, I'm about to burst!"

"The swamp is full of mud; if I blow it up, I don't have to pay for it, right?"

As she spoke, she pulled a black, iron object that looked like a bowling ball from the teddy bear's stomach and asked Xiang Batian with an innocent face: "Big guy, do you think it's enough if I bring this 'Truth No. 1'? Or should I bring the rocket launcher too?"

Xiang Batian was stuffing a third can of protein powder into his backpack. Seeing the bomb, the corner of his eye twitched, and he silently moved two steps to the side: "Enough, enough... Nuonuo, remember to stay away from me."

Then he continued to organize his equipment with a serious face: "The swamp terrain is complex and muddy; every step requires overcoming huge resistance."

"This is a huge test for core strength and lower limb stability! This is an excellent training opportunity! I'm going to bring two hundred pounds of weight inside for weighted swamp squat training!"

Meanwhile, Lu Xingye touched the back of his head, which hadn't fully recovered from the swelling, and was fixing his hair in front of a mirror, a glint of chuunibyou in his eyes: "Hmph, field combat, huh?"

"Perfect. In that kind of extremely harsh environment, you can see who the real strong ones are."

"Flowers in a greenhouse will eventually wither; only the weeds that have experienced the wind and rain can... hiss, my head hurts."

He turned around and stared fixedly at Jiang You, who was slumped in his chair, with a look of 'fated duel': "Jiang You! Wake up!"

"This time, I must... uh, although the goddess isn't going, I must prove to everyone that I am stronger than you!"

Jiang You yawned, too lazy to even lift his eyelids: "Ah, yes, yes, you're the strongest. Remember to block for me when we get to the swamp; I'm afraid of mosquito bites."

Just as everyone was busy or going crazy, a weak voice echoed from the corner of the hall: "Um... everyone... is there anyone... who can help me check... is my camouflage uniform... too dark in color?"

Everyone was stunned and looked around: "Who? Who is speaking?"

They saw a figure wearing a ghillie suit gradually appearing next to a pillar in the hall. It was the transparent person, Mo Wu.

He was fully armed at this time, even his face was painted with camouflage grease, and he stood there looking aggrieved: "I... I have actually been here organizing my equipment the whole time... I even asked Fugui how much the insect repellent spray was... but everyone who passed by stepped on me, and nobody paid any attention to me..."

Gou Fugui looked down and indeed discovered something seemed to be under his footprint. He awkwardly retracted his foot: "Ahem! Mo Wu, your stealth technique has improved again!"

Mo Wu sighed, his figure becoming blurry again: "Forget it... anyway, once we get to the swamp, as long as you don't mistake me for a wild monster and attack me, that's fine..."
