Class was about to start, and Ji Tianyu returned to his seat. He pulled out the fountain pen from his pocket, curiously twisted it, and to his surprise, a black tip emerged from the bottom, just like a ballpoint pen!
How peculiar! Ji Tianyu fiddled with it for a while, then casually drew a couple of lines on the back of his hand to see if it could write!
However, a shocking scene unfolded before his eyes. The fountain pen, with its blue luster, began to slowly sink into the back of his hand!
"Ah! Damn!" Ji Tianyu let out a cry, frantically scratching and pulling at his hand!
In just over a second, when the other students turned to look at Ji Tianyu, the pen had completely disappeared into the back of his left hand!
"What's wrong?" Dong Yu turned to look at Ji Tianyu, puzzled!
"Uh... nothing, nothing!" Ji Tianyu, drenched in cold sweat, swallowed a few times and nervously scratched his head!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and experienced it himself, Ji Tianyu would never have believed that a pen he had found in a bird's nest could act like a leech, burrowing into human flesh!
Ji Tianyu was flustered and anxious. Despite usually being calm and composed, he was just a nineteen-year-old young man! He had never encountered anything like this before...
Would he die? Would the pen suck out his flesh and blood, leaving him a skeleton? Or would it cause a mutation, turning him into a strange creature from a sci-fi movie?
All sorts of bizarre thoughts flooded Ji Tianyu's mind...
The class bell rang, and the English teacher stood at the podium with a stack of thick test papers!
"This class is for a preliminary test! We have only a month and a half until the exams! This test is mainly to..." The English teacher's words went in one ear and out the other for Ji Tianyu. He only knew that another test was coming!
The test papers were passed from the front row to the back. Ji Tianyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and tried to calm down!
"What's wrong? You look so pale. Are you feeling unwell?" Dong Yu, who was passing the test paper to Ji Tianyu, turned back and asked, surprised by his flustered and pale face!
"Nothing... nothing..." Ji Tianyu waved his hands, his palms drenched in sweat!
"Oh..." Dong Yu's long lashes flickered, and she sat up straight!
Looking at the test papers in front of him, Ji Tianyu found it hard to concentrate. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, filled in his name, and looked at the English multiple-choice questions!
"I've done this question before..." Ji Tianyu slowly calmed down, but he was still a bit lost. He had done it before, but the answer... he had forgotten!
As Ji Tianyu struggled to recall, a loud noise echoed in his mind: "Search system activated... reading..."
What?
Ji Tianyu was once again stunned by the images and sounds that appeared in his mind. What was that?
As Ji Tianyu was puzzled, another message flashed in his mind: "Reading successful... owner: Ji Tianyu, identity verified, binding complete!"
"Energy points remaining: 36, low..." What? What are all these random things appearing in my mind?
For half the class, Ji Tianyu didn't write a single word, just panted heavily! What was that pen? How could it mess with his mind for so long, acting like an intelligent machine with a search engine?
With a head full of questions, Ji Tianyu helplessly rubbed his forehead!
The English teacher walked slowly around the classroom with her hands behind her back. When she reached Ji Tianyu's side and saw the blank test paper, she was taken aback!
"Why haven't you started answering? It's been half the class!" The English teacher adjusted her glasses and asked, surprised!
"Uh... I will!" Ji Tianyu quickly replied, picked up the pen, and glanced at the first question...
"Activate search function?" Ji Tianyu gritted his teeth and chose "yes"!
"Activating search function requires 2 energy points. Continue?"
"…Yes."
"Search results loading..." Ji Tianyu blinked in amazement. A screen-like image appeared in his mind, with a progress bar rapidly advancing.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Ji Tianyu swallowed hard. It was already like this, so he might as well see what it was!
"Language... English!#$^#... Analysis result: c"
In less than a second, after switching through countless programs, Ji Tianyu's mind directly provided the answer!
"Is it c?" Ji Tianyu hesitantly filled in the answer!
Rubbing his eyes, Ji Tianyu felt a bit dazed. Was it an illusion? A delusion? It didn't make sense!
For the second question, as soon as Ji Tianyu's gaze landed on it, his mind automatically searched and provided the answer.
This time, Ji Tianyu was truly stunned. He scratched his head and looked around, but he still couldn't snap out of his daze. It was too incredible! Where were these answers coming from? Where were these hints?
Deciding to give it a try, Ji Tianyu looked at the subsequent questions, and the answers kept refreshing. He began to carefully consider them.
It seemed... after obtaining that fountain pen, strange phenomena kept occurring. First, it burrowed into his hand, and then he had this strange experience. It cost 2 energy points, and then all the answers to the English test were solved?
Answer the questions first...
Seeing Ji Tianyu's lightning-fast answering speed, the English teacher was stunned, her mouth agape. She looked down at Ji Tianyu, who was writing furiously, completely dumbfounded!
As his regular teacher, she knew Ji Tianyu's usual performance very well! Although he was diligent and hardworking, his grades were never great!
But his answering speed was astonishing! Did he... read the questions? Was he just guessing?
Ji Tianyu turned his head and saw the English teacher's stunned expression!
"Uh... teacher... I..."
"Answer, just keep answering!" The English teacher swallowed and slowly walked to the podium!
Fill in the blanks, multiple-choice, phrases, translations... in the blink of an eye, less than ten minutes had passed, and only the final essay remained!
Ji Tianyu was still in a state of excitement, and the search engine in his mind was still piecing together the main idea of the essay question.
"Analysis result... the essay topic should focus on themes of friendship and unity..."
"After intelligent search and assembly, there are four sets of answers available! Score distribution: 95%, 90%, 85%, 80%... Please choose!"
Ji Tianyu's mouth twitched! This is really something! It can even analyze and assemble an essay, and I can just copy it?
His foundation was weak, but Ji Tianyu was very familiar with the English alphabet. He copied the essay from his mind, not missing a single symbol!
Mission accomplished!!!
