Volu 3: High School Arc - Mirror Ga
The difficulty of the mission still hadn’t been revealed.
But according to my mission rules, even the easiest difficulty for team-based missions was Grade A.
Just that alone was enough to make my scalp tingle.
I hadn’t even done a single Grade B mission yet, and I already had to start with Grade A?
This System really was trying to get killed!
Damn it!
Just like that, while I was cursing the female ancestors of the APP’s eighteen generations in my heart, noon arrived.
The classmates had already agreed on a restaurant, and the teacher had also reserved a table.
Throughout this process, Lu Haochen hadn’t done anything out of the ordinary.
He chatted happily with the chubby Huang Lishan and Li Kaihuai.
It was obvious that those two classmates didn’t care whether Lu Haochen’s family was rich or not.
I didn’t know whether they had found out sothing, or if they simply didn’t care about money and status and just wanted to be friends with Lu Haochen.
But whatever the reason, the table next to was having a lively and cheerful conversation.
As for , I could only keep smiling while listening to Bai Juanjuan tell about all sorts of overly feminine male characters in so Jinjiang BL novel, and how they got involved with other male characters.
Her words made goosebumps crawl all over my body.
As a middle-aged man, hearing about so guy pinning another guy against a wall for a kabedon, then starting all kinds of shy and shaful things—it really made my scalp numb.
I never would’ve thought this girl would actually be interested in that kind of thing.
Looking at the girls in the class sitting together, discussing how so company had released a new makeup product, or how good so new handbag was, I really didn’t have any interest in joining their conversation.
I had to admit, these girls really made feel uncomfortable.
I didn’t know whether they were trying to maintain their “pure” image on the first day of school, or if they genuinely had no thoughts about boys at all.
But there wasn’t anything remotely suggestive in their conversation.
According to what I understood about young won today and so of the comnts I’d read online, these modern girls supposedly loved flirting or being provocative, even more so than so experienced players.
But in our class, I hadn’t heard a single similar remark.
I figured… it was probably because of how they were raised.
But really, what did the reason matter to ?
What I was worried about now was what exactly this mission would entail.
So far, I didn’t have any clues to deduce what was going on.
The only leads I had were from those two glimpses in the reflections…
Wait a minute!
Reflections?
Where did the ga’s starting location take place again?
East of the city, the abandoned mirror factory, Building No. 7?
Was the place where the event occurred sohow related to the hallucinations I saw through those two reflections?
That malicious smile still hovered in my mind.
That intense… emotion still made shiver.
Mirror factory, reflections…
Why did the APP want us to go to Building No. 7 and stay there for one hour?
According to the rules, the first player gathering location would be at an intersection in the east side of the city, positioned through WeChat location sharing.
The ti was at noon, five days from now.
So that ant in five days, all of us players had to gather for a etup, and then on Sunday night at midnight, we would go to Building No. 7?
Wait… judging by the ti, there were exactly seven days left until the official start.
So at midnight seven days from now, the ga wouldn’t have started yet!
Let sort out the tiline.
Right now, there were 165:49:44 left until the ga started.
In other words, the official start ti should be next Monday at 9 a.m.?
But then why did we have to go to the mirror factory at midnight on Sunday?
Could it be… there was sothing inside the mirror factory?
Why make us stay there for a full hour?
What was the purpose?
Below the words “Absolute Immunity” there was another line, roughly aning that during this phase, we would be completely immune to attacks from anomalies and other players.
In other words, inside the mirror factory, nothing should happen.
At least, there wouldn’t be any threat to our lives.
So… why go to the mirror factory?
What was there?
Doubt kept surfacing in my mind.
Countless possibilities played out in my head.
Eventually, I ca up with three potential scenarios.
I casually pulled out my newly bought Android phone, a Note10 from Samsung, popped out the S Pen, and was about to jot down my thoughts on the sticky note that appeared on the screen.
Then I heard Bai Juanjuan’s voice in my ear.
“Yunyan? Ti to go. What are you doing?”
“Mm? Oh, nothing…”
Hearing Bai Juanjuan’s voice, I instinctively turned around and saw her standing right behind .
Her big eyes were full of curiosity, staring at the phone and S Pen in my hand.
“Is that the one from Samsung? So this is what the S Pen looks like?”
Looking at Bai Juanjuan behind , I couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat for what I had just been doing.
If I had actually written down my thoughts on the screen, there was a chance she might’ve noticed sothing.
And then… who knew what the ga might do to cover up such a small slip-up?
Worst-case scenario, this girl’s life could end up in danger.
“Ah, are you… interested?”
Looking at this silly girl’s bright eyes, I tried handing her the phone.
She looked a little embarrassed and didn’t take it right away.
Instead, she said, “Wouldn’t that be inappropriate…”
“Heh, what’s so inappropriate about it? If you want to see it, go ahead. Given your family background, buying a phone like this shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Bai Juanjuan definitely wasn’t so governnt official’s daughter.
She was probably from a wealthy rchant family.
Though I couldn’t tell her exact background just yet, it shouldn’t be bad.
Certainly not to the point that she’d react like this over a phone.
Bai Juanjuan casually took the phone.
A faint sadness appeared on her face.
“Grandpa has already done so much for . I don’t want to trouble him over sothing this small…”
Grandpa?
Right… Bai Juanjuan seed to be deliberately avoiding any ntion of her parents.
I still didn’t know the reason, and now wasn’t the ti to ask.
“Just hold on to it for now. Give it back when you’re done playing. There’s no rush.”
I wasn’t worried about her seeing anything on the APP.
In fact, the Honkai APP’s prompts were only visible to .
No one else could see them.
I had tested it with Aunt Zhao—she couldn’t even see the APP.
I even had her try touching the area where the APP icon was located, trying to see if she could open it.
But weirdly enough… even when her finger was right on it, she still couldn’t open it.
This kind of reality-defying phenonon left a bit helpless, but also relieved.
At least I didn’t have to treat my phone like a ticking ti bomb.
It looked like I’d have to wait until I got ho tonight to sort through my thoughts.
So for now, what I needed to do was…
Go to the gathering~
