58: Wadi supermarket chain
Li Ritian ran to Shi Yan with excitement on his face, a trace of blood still on the corner of his mouth.
The other student ghosts around also looked at Shi Yan with excitement, one by one greeting him.
Shi Yan raised an eyebrow and sized up Li Ritian; he had already reached level eight, whereas before he was only level five.
He turned his head to look around, and the levels of the other students had also increased.
"Not bad."
Shi Yan nodded with a slight smile; he hadn't expected these student ghosts to be able to level up, so they were finally of some value.
"Keep up the good work."
Shi Yan encouraged all the students with a few words, then turned and walked out of the classroom.
He quietly walked alone down the corridor, casually looking out the corridor window at the academy's environment.
Suddenly, Shi Yan stopped, curiously looking at a certain spot.
That spot was the academy's main gate, where players appeared out of nowhere at the school entrance, one by one. This was the first time Shi Yan had seen how players entered a dungeon.
Shi Yan looked at those players, a strange expression appearing on his face.
Then he disappeared within the dungeon.
"Who?!"
A player looked around in horror; he had just felt an extremely terrifying gaze, and under that gaze, he felt like an ant in a giant's palm. Fortunately, that gaze was fleeting.
The other players around him looked at him as if he were crazy.
Shi Yan's figure appeared in the living room in reality. Because the level of the Dungeon Key he obtained was not high enough, he could not serve as the Principal like the former Principal. Otherwise, he could have gone on a killing spree and wantonly slaughtered the players who entered it.
…
As dusk gradually fell, Shi Yan activated a new dungeon.
"Welcome to Magic World"
"Current Nightmare Dungeon: Vadi's Chain Supermarket"
"Your identity is a store manager"
"Vadi has recently opened many supermarkets, and you need to serve as the owner of one of them, responsible for stocking, cashiering, and labeling."
"You need to serve as the store owner for three days."
"Hint: Each person is responsible for one supermarket."
"Current Dungeon Players: 10 people"
This was another dungeon within Magic World.
However, it was Nightmare difficulty.
Without time to think much, Shi Yan's vision flickered, and he disappeared from the living room.
His consciousness gradually returned, and Shi Yan looked around.
A label was affixed to Shi Yan's right chest: "Store Manager No. 102."
At this moment, ten people stood in a spacious and bright hall. The hall was four stories high, and its interior decoration was extremely luxurious.
The nine other players standing around were all around level ten.
A three-headed woman with a single ponytail stood in front of everyone. The woman had an excellent figure and was very beautiful, but having three heads simultaneously made her look quite eerie.
Each of her three heads had a different expression, as if they all possessed independent thought.
Shi Yan used the skill "Information Detection" on her.
"Three-Headed Harpy lv43"
"Constitution: 5120"
"Soul: 5012"
Shi Yan's eyes flashed; her attributes and level were quite high, so she was not someone to provoke.
"You can call me Vadi. I am the general manager of this company. You all should know your jobs, right?"
Vadi's middle head spoke, her expression gentle and her voice clear and soft.
The players here were all around level ten and had some understanding of dungeons within Magic World, so at this moment, everyone had solemn expressions and nodded, indicating their understanding.
"Salaries will be paid uniformly at the final settlement."
"In addition, the person who performs best and sells the most will receive our additional reward."
Vadi's right head said in a deep voice, her voice carrying a strong mature woman's charm, and her face wore a steady expression, making her seem very composed.
"If anyone fails to meet the supermarket's daily turnover, they will be subject to our punishment."
Vadi's leftmost head said coldly, her expression icy, scanning all the players present with a viper-like gaze.
The players she scanned felt a chill down their spines, their hair standing on end.
"These are the most basic rules. All store managers, please hurry to your posts. I hope you will like this job and treat it with care."
Vadi's middle head said softly.
"These teleportation arrays will send you directly to your workplaces. Of course, the teleportation fee will definitely be deducted from your salary."
Vadi's rightmost head spoke, pointing to the side as she did so.
Shi Yan followed Vadi's gaze and saw that diamond-shaped magic arrays suddenly appeared on the ground that had been empty before.
The magic arrays glowed with a deep purple light, and red lines formed a diamond shape. In the middle of the diamond were various unknown runes and lines, which were extremely intricate.
Shi Yan watched for a while, memorizing the formation, intending to study it later when he had time.
Below the teleportation arrays were various numbers. Shi Yan found his No. 102, but he did not rush to activate the teleportation array. Instead, he subtly observed the other players.
A player with a bald ascetic monk appearance walked onto the No. 106 teleportation array. A flash of white light appeared, and the ascetic monk above the teleportation array disappeared from his original spot.
The other players also walked into the teleportation arrays one by one, disappearing from their original spots. Soon, only Shi Yan was left.
"Store Manager No. 102, why are you not entering the teleportation array yet?"
Vadi's middle head looked at Shi Yan, her expression as gentle as before. Her other two heads also turned, and all six eyes looked at Shi Yan.
"I'm going now."
Shi Yan smiled at Vadi, then turned and walked into the No. 102 teleportation array. With a flash of white light, he disappeared from his original spot.
This kind of teleportation array was completely different from the teleportation in Slaughter Paradise. When Slaughter Paradise teleported players, there was no sensation, but this kind of teleportation array felt terrible when teleporting.
It was ten times worse than being stuffed into a washing machine and set to maximum power.
Even with Shi Yan's high physical attributes, he felt a slight dizziness, so other players would probably be even more disheveled.
Shi Yan appeared inside a small supermarket. He was facing a wall, standing in the aisle between the supermarket's shelves and the cashier counter.
The teleportation array beneath Shi Yan's feet slowly dimmed and disappeared. He turned his head to look left and right.
The supermarket was about five meters high, and its space was approximately one hundred square meters.
The supermarket was overall clean and tidy, with several neatly arranged fluorescent lights on the ceiling, illuminating the entire store.
To his right was the cashier counter, and to his left were three rows of shelves. All the shelves were empty, and behind the shelves was a half-human-height cabinet, which seemed to be some kind of freezer.
Behind the cashier counter was a half-open door, through which various boxes could be vaguely seen inside.
"Those should be the goods that need to be displayed."
