So You're Chu Xuan, Huh

Chu Xuan, a professional soldier, holds the rank of Senior Colonel.

Fang Yu was stripped of his limbs, sight, hearing, and tongue when he first entered the Reincarnation Space.

Chu Xuan, on the other hand, was born without any feelings, pain, touch, smell, or taste, and his emotions did not fluctuate; he was a pure AI robot.

Their schemes are designed to maximize their own interests, without considering others, and they may even sacrifice themselves as part of the scheme to achieve their goals.

In Fang Yu's eyes, the main reason why Colonel Chu was unsatisfactory was his lack of consideration for others' feelings.

Even with Xiao Ai (Xiao Ai's AI assistant), if you tell her you don't want to live anymore, Xiao Ai will tell you the world is wonderful and comfort you with a few words.

Chu Xuan, on the other hand, would simply pull out a gun and give you a quick death, leaving you no time to regret it.

This is Chu Xuan.

Fang Yu walked up to Chu Xuan Chu Xuan, who trembled and didn't dare to meet his gaze.

"Alright, stop pretending to be an old master. From the moment you opened your eyes, you've been faking it. What 'parasite' nonsense? Only they would believe that."

The members of the Central Continent Team looked at Chu Xuan with puzzled expressions. They didn't know why Fang Yu cared so much about a newcomer with an ordinary appearance.

"You acted very well, but you overlooked something crucial."

Fang Yu looked at Chu Xuan and chuckled, "A freeloader, yet his nails are neatly trimmed, his nose hairs don't even show his nostrils, he wears a clean white shirt and looks like a gay guy, and his hair is so short, he doesn't look like a freeloader at all."

"The most crucial thing is..."

Fang Yu kicked Colonel Chu's shoe. "Did you get it? It looks like you got a huge windfall."

Chu Xuan suddenly smiled.

He laughed not because he genuinely found the situation funny, but because he felt that a normal person would have awkwardly laughed when exposed at that moment.

Chu Xuan looked up, adjusted his glasses, and the sunlight reflected off them, obscuring his pupils and expression.

In that instant, he seemed to transform into a different person, exuding the heroic spirit of a soldier!

"My name is not a lie, my profession is a soldier, but I cannot disclose where I served."

Fang Yu patted Chu Xuan's shoulder lightly, "That's more like it!"

Chu Xuan didn't speak, but was silently considering something.

It's normal that he couldn't fool Fang Yu.

Because Fang Yu had read the script.

Moreover, Chu Xuan also treated these people like fools, thinking that they wouldn't focus their attention on him in the terrifying world full of dangers. He wanted to pretend to be useless and observe his teammates silently, but he found that he had underestimated the captain of the Central Continent Team.

Chu Xuan was calculating, and Fang Yu was also studying.

The so-called "script-reading" Chu Xuan is someone who first fires at a target, and then, after the bullets have mostly flown away, sets up another target to match Chu Xuan's plan.

This is actually a problem with "him" himself.

While Chu Xuan Chu Xuan is indeed portrayed as having exceptionally high intelligence, looking beyond the surface, his schemes are simply the product of a seasoned author pulling out his hair while staying up all night to devise a display of high intelligence.

Fang Yu didn't know whether Chu Xuan here was superior in terms of the rules or an absolute sage in the literal sense.

He must figure this out.

Because if Chu Xuan possesses superior intelligence in terms of rules, then those around him, due to the author's limited mental capacity, will be affected by his aura of reduced intelligence.

Only by being less intelligent than Chu Xuan can one demonstrate Chu Xuan's strength.

What else can we do? Can a web novel author really write about all the behaviors of a character with an IQ of 220? That would be asking too much of him.

As Fang Yu was pondering, Zhan Lan suddenly exclaimed, interrupting everyone's confusion.

"Look! The mission notification on the wristwatch has been updated!"

Fang Yu raised his wristwatch and slammed his fist on the table next to Chu Xuan, creating a large dent in it!

Chu Xuan slightly raised his glasses to observe the damage to the table and the proportion of force Fang Yu's punch had on him, while also looking at the Reincarnation Watch.

You are students of Woodsboro High School, and also residents of Ghostface Town, the town of...

Find and capture the Ghostface Killer. You will receive 200 Reward Points for each successful capture. When you capture ten, you will receive one C-rank Side Quest.

If you only see this much, then this Horror Film experience is practically free.

What's unbearable is the large, blood-red text that scrolls down below.

Team battle begins

The North Ice Continent Team have free time in ten minutes.

This team battle uses Point System. Both teams have an equal number of players. One point is awarded for each kill and one point is deducted for each death. The point difference will be calculated when the story ends and the team returns. The point difference multiplied by 2,000 will be the reward/penalty points for the entire team.

Team members who incur penalties due to insufficient reward points must make up the debt before the next cycle, or they will be eliminated.

[Defeat enemy squad members whose Gene Lock have not been activated to receive 2,000 Reward Points and 1 C-rank Side Quest]

[Defeat the enemy squad member who has unlocked their Gene Lock to obtain 7,000 Reward Points and 1 B-Rank Side Quest.]

After reading the team battle rules, the people of Zhongzhou finally lost their initial composure after learning that it was "Scream," and their expressions became serious.

The four newcomers seemed a bit confused. Student Li Shuaixi asked Zhang Jie beside him, "W-what's wrong? Is this team battle that scary?"

"It's more than terrifying." Zhang Jie clenched his fist. "Do you understand the significance of having eight insane computers in the Arctic Circle that prevented the bridge from being dismantled?"

Li Shuaixi swallowed hard. "Isn't that a certain death?"

Blondie Fei Hao, a gangster, slammed his fist on the table. "Then can we not participate in this game?"

Fang Yu laughed, "In society, when you say, 'Brother, I'll never do it again,' do you think the other person will stop slapping you?"

"Holy crap!"

Having shed his disguise, Chu Xuan came to the window, glanced back at everyone, and finally fixed his gaze on Fang Yu. "There are three minutes until the plot begins, and eight minutes until the North Ice Continent Team arrives."

"Before we begin, I'd like to know, what is the purpose of this so-called Main God who has gathered us here?"

"The meaning of life," Zheng Zha answered quickly.

Chu Xuan kept staring at Fang Yu, not at Zheng Zha, clearly because the answer did not meet his expectations.

Fang Yu thought for a moment, "Let's raise Gu."

Chu Xuan nodded. "I understand."

"Well, we still have plenty of time. I'd like to know what you mean by the ability to exchange with the Main God."

"Secondly, what was that guy with the cigarette who just mentioned about the last team fight?"

"I need to analyze it."

"No need for analysis." Fang Yu interrupted Chu Xuan's calculations. "The North Ice Continent Team arrived ten minutes later than us and chose Scream, a movie that is almost impossible to 'leverage', as their main battleground, which means that the gap between our two teams is not that big."

"My Combat Power within this team should account for what percentage?"

Fang Yu replied without any hesitation, "Ninety."

Chu Xuan nodded, his CPU working furiously. "I propose that, if the gap between us isn't too large, we should feign an alliance, and even send six of our weakest fighters, along with you, to negotiate with the North Ice Continent as a basis for friendly exchanges."

"If all rewards are achieved, obtaining two thousand Reward Points and a C-rank Side Quest with almost no effort is a highly cost-effective choice."

"Without considering the other party's intelligence, the probability of the North Ice Continent being fooled is 74, rounded to the nearest whole number."

"Once the alliance is formed, launch a surprise attack on the enemy squad! Catch them off guard!"

Fang Yu looked at Chu Xuan and commented, "Your 'annoying' wisdom."

Fang Yu could actually guess Chu Xuan's general intentions when he set this trap.

It's simply about enhancing our understanding of this world, this space, and all members of the Central Continent Team.

There are five new recruits this time, and he has requested that the six members with the lowest combat strength go to the negotiations together.

The purpose was to allow the members of the Central Continent Team who had already formed a friendship to set aside the person with the lowest combat strength to go on an adventure.

Let's not talk about the outcome yet.

If the senior members of the Central Continent Team agree to this suggestion and kick out a veteran player with the lowest combat strength to take the risk, it would indicate that the team lacks cohesion, its members are highly selfish, and it can be easily influenced by outsiders. Further efforts will need to be made in this regard.

Fang Yu didn't want to analyze the rest.

Chu Xuan is an annoying kind of wisdom.

Fang Yu also possessed the wisdom of an ordinary person.

Despite the slight difference in wording, the two approaches consider completely different dimensions.

"First of all, I disagree with your idea." Fang Yu shook his index finger and waved his hand. "A battle is unavoidable. First of all, we can't estimate what the other side's mission is. What if it's completely contrary to ours, like helping Ghost Face escape legal punishment? How will we resolve the mission conflict then?"

Upon hearing about the conflicting mission settings, Chu Xuan silently began to calculate.

Fang Yu continued, "The Dark Forest Theory states that once a civilization in the universe is discovered by other civilizations, it will inevitably be attacked by those other advanced civilizations."

Only Chu Xuan understood this principle, which made him think more highly of Fang Yu.

Let me add one more thing.

The rest of the people got zero.

"Therefore, we should start preparing for the team battle against the North Ice Continent Team."

"In addition."

Fang Yu looked at everyone and said, "Anyone, I mean anyone, who does anything that is extremely detrimental to me, or even a dangerous act, I will pay the price of 1,000 Reward Points to kill them!"

Fang Yu's attitude was beyond question, and everyone could see it.

"When the interests of the team are infringed, the punishment should be judged by everyone."

After saying everything, Fang Yu pushed open the classroom door at the perfect moment.

Plot

here we go

In an Abandoned Factory Building, a group of fifteen people sat together, discussing loudly.

A white, non-mainstream young man with red and green hair scratched his head and said:

"The Central Continent Team? Didn't that white Mental Controller from the Demon Team, who almost wiped us out, mention that the Central Continent Team has breeders?"

"Hmm," a somewhat shy, white high school student of about fifteen years old added, "Dio Brook's demon clone said that the Central Continent Team's breeder captain was killed by them, but there are still other members of the Farming Team remaining."

The high school student avoided the gazes of the newcomers and teammates. "The Demon Team and the Central Continent Team have a deep-seated grudge! The Central Continent's Farming Team almost wiped out their entire Demon Team!"

The unconventional youth was shocked. "Is the Central Continent Team really that strong? Can we even beat them?"

"Don't worry." A baby-faced white man stretched his shoulders, exhaling a cold white breath as he spoke, "The fact that we're on stage later than them means that this Central Continent Team has already been 'cleaned up'."

"Alright, alright!" The unconventional youth patted his chest. "Let's start racking up points! A fifteen-person team battle... I can't even imagine how many Reward Points and Side Quests we'll get!"

No sooner had the words left her mouth than a long-haired girl suddenly clutched her temple and cried out in pain, "A very powerful life form is heading this way! It's coming very fast!"

A figure sped by through the town streets shrouded in dark clouds.

He is a ninja, a pirate, and a veteran.

He is Fang Yu, the ceiling of the Central Continent Team's combat power!

When Chu Xuan learned about Fang Yu's contribution to the Central Continent Team's Combat Power, he boldly shared his suggestion with Fang Yu.

That is, to actively locate the approximate position of the North Ice Continent Team!

If possible, it would be best to launch a surprise attack, kill one or two of the opponent's newcomers first, and take control of the situation in the hands of the Central Continent Team!

Cooperating with Chu Xuan is actually a double-edged sword.

However, if we listen to his advice completely, then even though there are risks, the benefits are indeed maximized.

Fang Yu then used his Observation Haki to sense things and searched around the town. He quickly noticed several auras that were clearly different from ordinary people, located within the protective shield of Abandoned Factory Building on the edge of the town.

At this moment, all the veterans from the North Ice Continent in the factory looked upwards!

"Can fly!? What kind of enhancement is that?"

"I don't know, it looks like a monster."

"Is there such a thing as enhancement?"

The unconventional white youth Eric Ya, stared in disbelief. He looked at his high school-aged companion, Albert Ellen, and asked, "Ellen! Didn't you say the Demon Team purified the Farming Team? What's going on?"

Albert Allen immediately shook his head. "How would I know?"

In just one encounter, Fang Yu's direction of enhancement was already somewhat incomprehensible to the people of the North Ice Continent, let alone the fact that he had taken the initiative to seek them out.

Able to find this place

There must also be perception-based skills, similar to Mental Scan!

Seeing the low morale of the crowd, the North Ice Continent Team Gunnar sneered, "What's with all those expressions? What are you afraid of! We didn't even look like this when we faced the Demon Squad!"

Meanwhile, the big dog lying on the ground suddenly spoke in human language!

"Last time we encountered the Demon Squad, we and the West Sea Team were almost wiped out by that guy who stepped on the sword. Dio Brook, the Demon Squad, also revealed that they were almost killed by the Central Continent Team's Farming Team."

"Let me think about it."

The large dog wore a thoughtful expression. "Could it be that the captain of the Central Continent Team has the Resurrection Cross!?"

These words startled even the North Ice Continent Team, Gunnar!

Gunnar knew better than anyone the strength of the sword cultivator Fu Ming.

Because he almost died at Fu Ming's hands.

Last time, the North Ice Continent, the Demon Team, and the West Sea Team fought a major battle.

The North Ice Continent and West Blue teams have formed an alliance.

If it weren't for a veteran member of the West Sea Team who had taken the Evil Witch route, using Curse Doll to transfer the damage to one of the newcomers on the Demon Team...

Gunnar was pursued by that Golden Light and was completely trapped.

The long-haired girl, Beverly Field, Mental Controller, swallowed hard. "Last time, that Mental Controller from the Demon Team said something... that the captain of the Middle Continent Farming Team had enhanced the monster route?"

Upon hearing this, Gunnar plopped down on the stool.

Yes, it matches.
