The distance and destination this time were still invisible.
So Chen Han was not in a rush either, just walking over leisurely.
Chen Han first walked out from the secluded back door of the Happy Kids Swimming Pool.
Then he returned to the front gate of the Happy Kids Swimming Pool.
The doors of the swimming pool were still wide open.
Only this time, there was not a single person.
It was somewhat desolate.
When Chen Han returned to this world, the time had surprisingly not changed much.
The current time was 6:12.
After coming out of the swimming pool, Chen Han first walked in the direction of his left hand.
Walking less than a kilometer like this.
The dungeon this time arrived!
Along the way.
Chen Han encountered a stationery store, a milk tea shop, and a steamed bun shop.
Similarly, they were all devoid of people.
Chen Han suddenly felt a strong nostalgia for his previous life.
Even though he had truly entered the world of Rules Horror for less than 24 hours.
Yet it genuinely felt like a lifetime away.
Amidst the race between life and death, his senses were infinitely magnified.
While truly feeling how precious life was, he was also drifting further and further away from his previous life.
He wondered if he would still have the opportunity to return to real life in the future.
If given this opportunity, he would definitely go eat the KFC bucket he was usually too thrifty to afford, instead of eating the diarrhea-inducing small combo meal from Wallace.
Then he would go home to see his mom and dad.
If he died, they would be very sad, right.
After all, it would be the elderly burying the young.
Previously, he always felt that life-and-death parting in short videos was too far away from him.
Yet he never expected that he could also become the protagonist of a car crash scene in a short video.
Upon returning home, Chen Han only wanted to listen to his mother's nagging one more time, and care about where she was exploiting loopholes for freebies recently.
Then clink glasses three rounds with his dad, bragging around the small dining table.
Chatting about everyday trifles, and talking about his dad's glorious deeds in his youth.
Amidst such wild fantasies.
Chen Han finally arrived at the destination of this trip.
"Overseas Chinese Middle School"
In the vast campus, there was not a single person.
Even the security booth was completely empty.
Is this a dungeon?
Chen Han stepped into the campus in puzzlement.
Then the scene before his eyes changed accordingly.
He was currently holding a...
Chinese textbook?
Surrounded by the sound of passionate reading aloud.
"When you have wine, sing your song, for life is short as the morning dew..."
Chen Han quizzically flipped the book to the cover.
"Chinese Compulsory Book 1"
Chen Han was dumbfounded; holy crap, what year had they dragged him back to?
In an instant, a dream return to high school!
It seemed this dungeon did not even bother to say hello.
It directly plunged the players into the dungeon.
Chen Han was now outfitted just like in the previous swimming pool dungeon.
He was dressed in a school uniform, which was blue and white and of a very ordinary style.
Because the people around him were all studying.
His actions could not be too obvious.
Chen Han flipped open the Chinese textbook again, muttering under his breath.
"It is for you alone that I linger, sighing to this day. The deer bleat harmoniously..."
His watch suddenly popped open an electronic screen.
These were the rules for this session.
Classroom Discipline
[1. Listen carefully in class, do not make the teacher angry, and speaking is strictly prohibited.]
[2. Remember your class, and make sure not to go to the wrong one; facing severe punishment awaits if you walk into the wrong room.]
[3. Do not let the anomalies discover that you are a player, otherwise you will be taken to the dean's office.]
[4. Remember that you are a good student!]
[5. If you find strange handwriting appearing in your book, close your eyes immediately!]
[6. When a blue pen appears in your deskmate's pencil case, never speak to them.]
[7. Talk to your classmates more; perhaps they will share some unexpected information.]
[8. Leaving your seat is prohibited before the end of the lesson.]
At the same time, the livestream was also proceeding simultaneously.
The number of players participating in the game this time was terrifyingly high, with a total of 12 players.
The player limit for a typical novice dungeon was within 8 people, but this time there were strangely 12.
Therefore, this resulted in 12 perspectives in the livestream room.
Because the location of this dungeon was in a high school, the appearances of all players were uniformly adjusted to their third-year high school period, 17 to 18 years old.
At least from their appearances, all players successfully integrated into the dungeon.
Chen Han's perspective had the most people. On one hand, it was because he gained quite a few fans from the previous livestream.
As soon as Chen Han started broadcasting, they would come to show support.
This was also thanks to his flawless clearance of two consecutive dungeons.
His fan stickiness was extremely strong!
As soon as Chen Han started broadcasting, people poured in massively.
The number of viewers showed exponential growth.
On the other hand, it was because Chen Han was considered the most outstanding-looking among these 12 people, so quite a few casual viewers also paid attention to Chen Han's perspective at the very first moment.
Even in a Rules Horror livestream, viewers were still superficial about appearances; those who looked good were simply able to attract more viewers.
"Oh wow, I really can't take it anymore. Does big shot Chen Han not need to rest? Not long after the last dungeon ended, he started another one!"
"Chen Han is awesome! Starting three dungeons in one day, will he achieve a flawless clearance this time and trigger hidden plots?"
"This young man is so handsome!"
"Isn't this an unadorned class hunk?"
"Our big shot Chen Han doesn't rely on his face to make a living; he relies on his brains! That being said, I've screenshotted this first!"
The livestream room chatted idly for a while before turning their attention to the situation Chen Han currently found himself in and the newly emerged rules.
"I see people from other perspectives showing their true colors to varying degrees as soon as they arrive in a dungeon; only this young man is the calmest!"
"It's a novice dungeon after all! But isn't the player behind and to the right of Chen Han acting way too obvious? Looking left and right!"
"This rule makes people feel uneasy, kind of like Yuzhang Academy which was exposed for scandals a few years ago!"
Chen Han was analyzing the rules.
He felt a gust of wind sweep past.
Chen Han observed for a split second with his peripheral vision.
The person stirring up this wind was precisely a middle-aged man of about forty years old. He was wearing a plaid shirt and a pair of metal-framed glasses.
He had just walked aggressively toward Chen Han's angle.
Chen Han naturally sensed it.
Yet he did not raise his head.
None of the people around him raised their heads either, continuing to read mechanically.
So at this time, even if he noticed something was wrong.
He must not act rashly.
Following that came a violent "slap".
Chen Han knew very well that this was the sound produced by a palm strike.
"Not studying properly during morning reading, what are you looking around for?"
"The city-wide diagnostic exams are coming up soon, and you're still not studying seriously?"
"What a piece of trash!"
"You even ranked in the bottom 10 on the last monthly exam!"
"See if I don't beat you to death!"
Then Chen Han could clearly hear the man behind him punching and kicking the student behind him.
Anyone unaware would think there was some deep-seated hatred or grudge.
At first, the student who was being beaten would still struggle.
"No, what did I do?"
"Let go of me!"
Until in the end, it simply turned into miserable screams.
"Ahhhhhhh"
This sound gave Chen Han goosebumps all over his body, making his nerves tense up.
