Chapter 19

Sun Yuan glanced at the tower and felt a great sense of relief; it was exactly the same as the one in the game.

After the world became gamified, God's Towers would appear all over the world, and their appearances would be consistent with the local architectural styles.

For example, the God's Towers that appeared in Europe were all in the shape of churches, while those in Japan were in the style of shrines.

On the playground, many teachers and students were still in shock, their faces filled with fear, unsure of what their fate would be.

Ding!

Sun Yuan's phone rang.

He stopped the electric scooter, propped one foot on the ground, and took out his phone.

It was a WeChat message from Zhuo Wen.

[Are you not here yet? We are under the second basketball hoop on the east side of the basketball court. Hurry up, or you might be eliminated for being late.]

...

At the basketball court, the students of the 2021 Class 02 of the Foreign Languages College gathered together, discussing what to do next.

"Have you gotten any food and water?"

Li Wan looked at Zhuo Wen. She had asked everyone, and no one had any food.

"No!"

Zhuo Wen sighed, "Forget about food. If it weren't for Sun Yuan, we would have been implanted with spores by now."

"Wah, I wish I hadn't tried to lose weight. I haven't eaten since last night."

Wang Shan was crying.

She had an ordinary appearance, was not tall, and was overweight, so she hadn't even had a boyfriend in three years of college.

"Sun Yuan is usually so quiet, but I didn't expect him to be so capable!"

Wang Xu added more details, recounting the conflict where Chu Yuntao tried to steal Sun Yuan's equipment but was instead robbed by Sun Yuan: "I think he might have trained, maybe he's a lay disciple of some martial arts school!"

"Since Sun Yuan is so strong, he should have gotten some food, right?"

Zhou Ze rubbed his stomach. He had a big appetite, and now, after two meals without food, he was starving.

"I don't know, but he probably doesn't lack food."

Wang Xu thought about how he was worrying about food while Sun Yuan was out with a beautiful female streamer, and he felt so low.

"Even if Sun Yuan has food, do you have the nerve to ask for it?"

Lu Wenjun muttered, "Now that the end times have come, a piece of bread might be enough to get a pretty girl for a night."

"You can be Sun Yuan's girlfriend."

Zhuo Wen joked.

If it were before, the girls would have dismissed the idea with disdain and jeers.

Their criteria for choosing a partner were that the man should be a civil servant or work for a state-owned enterprise, have a local household registration, and own a house and a car.

His monthly salary should be at least ten thousand, right?

Could Sun Yuan achieve that after graduation?

So even a girl like Lu Wenjun, who wasn't very attractive, didn't consider Sun Yuan as a potential partner. But now...

He might not even look at her if she offered herself.

Zhuo Wen saw that his words had made the atmosphere awkward and felt a bit embarrassed. Fortunately, he looked up and saw Sun Yuan's figure, and immediately waved and called out.

"Sun Yuan, we're here!"

Whoosh!

Everyone turned their heads and saw Sun Yuan riding an electric scooter, with Shen Jingran beside him.

"How did they end up together?"

Li Wan muttered, a bit unhappy.

"Damn!"

Zheng Chun, who was squatting and smoking, spat and stood up, touching the Rolex on his wrist. Just as he was about to greet them, he saw a beautiful girl jump off the back of the scooter.

She was wearing a JK uniform, exuding a youthful and lively aura.

Even in a crowd, she was the most eye-catching.

"Nangong Yuer?"

Zheng Chun exclaimed, then walked over with a smile: "Jingran, I didn't expect you to know this famous streamer?"

"I don't know her!"

Shen Jingran's voice was cold.

"Huh?"

Zheng Chun was stunned. Why did Nangong Yuer come with them?

Could it be...

Zheng Chun looked at Sun Yuan.

"Hello, seniors, I am Sun Yuan's sister. Please take care of me!"

Zhen Yu greeted them.

Her social skills, honed from being a streamer, were fully utilized, aiming to integrate into the group as quickly as possible.

"Sister?"

Zhou Ze was surprised, then laughed and put his arm around Sun Yuan's shoulder: "Brother-in-law, I'm definitely going to be friends with you."

"Don't listen to her, we're not related!"

Sun Yuan was helpless.

"Why is she with you?"

Zhou Ze was puzzled.

The boys were eager for gossip. Even if they didn't know Zhen Yu, they had heard of her nickname, as she was a famous streamer.

"Senior saved me, so I followed him!"

Zhen Yu explained straightforwardly.

"..."

Zheng Chun was very angry. Why did Sun Yuan get all the good things?

And why was Shen Jingran with Sun Yuan?

Did they meet privately?

Or was it a coincidence?

Damn!

It was frustrating!

Although Shen Jingran wasn't his girlfriend, he still felt a green tinge on his head, like the victims in those Korean manhwa he had read.

"Who is ready to attack the tower?"

Shen Jingran wanted to count the number of people.

Everyone was silent, looking at each other, and their gazes finally fell on Sun Yuan.

"Sun Yuan, are you going to attack the tower?"

Li Wan's voice was filled with fear.

"Yes!"

Sun Yuan didn't hide it: "The game just started, and the level of the God's Towers is low. The challenges inside are the simplest. If we don't act now, we won't accumulate the necessary resources, and our future in the game will be difficult."

"Will we die?"

Wang Shan interjected.

"Yes!"

This was something everyone had already guessed.

"Why don't we form a team? We can support each other."

Zhou Ze suggested: "Sun Yuan, you can be the team leader?"

Zheng Chun was so angry he could spit blood.

In the past, any class activities were led by him and Shen Jingran. When did it ever become Sun Yuan's turn?

These people clearly wanted to rely on Sun Yuan.

"I think it's a good idea!"

Wang Xu agreed, but a few people didn't comment.

Although they were classmates, to be honest, apart from their own small circles, their relationships weren't deep. If you asked to borrow a hundred yuan, it would be fine.

But if you asked for a thousand, they would hesitate or even refuse.

Especially in the God's Tower game, which involved life and death, who would act rashly?

At such times, it was best to form a team with the most trusted friends.

Rumble! Rumble!

The sound of an engine roared, growing louder and louder.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a young man in Nike sportswear, wearing a blue helmet, riding a green motorcycle that sped over.

On the back of the motorcycle, a female college student was hugging his waist, wearing a black leather skirt and a tight T-shirt, highlighting her fiery figure.

Most strikingly, she was carrying an AK-47, which looked like equipment dropped from a monster.

The real deal.

"It's the Tang siblings!"

Lu Wenjun was excited, staring at the young man in sportswear without taking her eyes off him.

Tang Yan was one of the four young masters of the ancient city, so handsome that he could debut in a boy band, and many girls were infatuated with him.

The boys, however, were staring at Tang Tang.

But no one dared to pursue her.

Not only was Tang Tang's temper volatile, but her family background was enough to make men hesitate.

The green motorcycle Tang Yan was riding was a Kawasaki H2R, priced at over 700,000 RMB, and it was a track version that couldn't be registered.

Strictly speaking, this motorcycle would be stopped by the police as soon as it hit the road, but Tang Yan always rode it without any issues.

This pair of twin siblings was the most famous figures at the ancient city university.

Sun Yuan had heard of their names and seen them twice from a distance. They were indeed very attractive, but they had never interacted, as they were from different social circles.

...

Many students were worried that getting close to the God's Tower would be dangerous, so there was no one within fifty meters of the tower.

The Tang siblings, however, were extremely bold, riding their motorcycle directly to the base of the God's Tower.

"It doesn't seem to be open yet."

Tang Yan took off his helmet, and his handsome face immediately made many girls' eyes sparkle.

"When can we attack the tower? I can't wait!"

Tang Tang rubbed her hands together.

"Want to get the first kill?"

Tang Yan took out his iPhone and checked WeChat: "Zhao Jike asked if we want to form a team with them."

"No, that guy is a schemer. I'm afraid of being betrayed!"

Tang Tang looked at the top of the tower without taking off her helmet, as she hated being stared at: "The glory of the first kill sounds great. I want it!"

"I'm more interested in the top-tier reward for the first kill!"

Tang Yan looked around at the teachers and students on the playground, then at his phone: "Chu Yuntao was defeated by a student named Sun Yuan and lost two pieces of equipment. This person is definitely a strong competitor, so we need to be careful."

"Serves him right!"

Tang Tang sneered, having no good feelings toward Chu Yuntao.

"Do you want to go and greet this Sun Yuan to get some information?"

Tang Yan suggested.

"No need. If he's part of the first wave of attackers, we'll meet him soon. If not, he's not worth meeting!"

Tang Tang took out an energy bar and handed it to her brother: "Let's replenish our energy first, and then go for the first kill!"

...

"Tang Tang actually has an AK!"

Shen Jingran was envious.

"So what? I can still take her down with my three-shot bird bolts!"

Zhen Yu muttered, touching her anger slingshot.

"Jingran, who is Sun Yuan?"

A boy with square glasses walked up to Shen Jingran and asked.

"President Zhou, what do you need from Sun Yuan?"

Shen Jingran smiled.

This boy was the student council president of the Foreign Languages College, Zhou Kai, who was obsessed with power and had a strong bureaucratic style.

"It's Deputy Minister Cui who is looking for him."

Zhou Kai was satisfied with Shen Jingran's address: "Who is Sun Yuan? Follow me!"

"Don't go!"

Zhuo Wen stood next to Sun Yuan and whispered a warning.

"What's wrong?"

Sun Yuan frowned, sensing that it wasn't good.

"We were just forced to donate 300 points to Minister Cui!"

Zhuo Wen didn't want to give, but Cui Xueren was the deputy minister of the school's Youth League Committee, and they, as students, didn't dare to refuse!

"Sun Yuan, President Zhou is calling you. Didn't you hear?"

Zheng Chun deliberately spoke up to make things difficult for Sun Yuan.

"You are Sun Yuan?"

Zhou Kai followed Zheng Chun's gaze and looked at Sun Yuan: "Come with me quickly, don't keep Deputy Minister Cui waiting."

His condescending tone made Sun Yuan very unhappy, so he ignored him.

"Hey..."

Zhou Kai was annoyed and walked straight to Sun Yuan, reaching out to push him.

Slap!

Sun Yuan pushed away Zhou Kai
