“I’m sorry, but I don’t know how to solve this problem either.” Bai Yu — who was about to go home — was stopped by a sophomore. 

He glanced at the exercise book about basic potionology.

The main point of knowledge was that the hair of the banshee could not be used with the roots of the twisted magic tree. Otherwise, the both would neutralize each other and make the medicine lose its potency.

Bai Yu could reach this conclusion even if he was half asleep.

“Do you have a boyfriend?” He looked at the young and energetic girl as he asked.

The girl’s face was red, and her bright eyes revealed anticipation and shyness. “Not yet, if you…”

“Uh, sorry, I have to go.”

Bai Yu turned around and walked away under the junior’s dazed gaze.

The school gate slowly opened as he made his way out. Looking at the students rushing out of the school like a swarm of bees, he felt like he was being thrown back to his school days.

Unfortunately, this was not his Earth.

Suddenly, the sounds of air explosions came from the sky.

Looking up, a huge mechanical creation flew over his head. It bolted out of the sky and dispersed the remaining clouds. Its appearance was like a cruise ship with a displacement tonnage of more than 10,000 tons.

Both sides of the ship were covered with mechanical wings. The mechanic vehicle floated up and down, creating air waves. At the top of the ship were rows of chimneys that spewed out white steam.

The surrounding students were accustomed to such a sight. However, Bai Yu still felt incredulous about this mechanical creation that was known as a miracle.

“I should be able to unlock the golden finger after I finish my missions today.”

He looked away as he muttered to himself. Bai Yu weighed his backpack, which was full of books, and headed home.



He was the only one in the house when he entered. His parents, as government researchers in the early years, entered a virtual world to carry out investigations. They said that they would retire after completing their tasks, but the two never came back.

His parents’ legacies gave him an old residential estate and a fortune that would allow him to start a family and have children.

As long as Bai Yu did not carelessly spend away his life, this fortune would be enough for him to live a comfortable life.

Bai Yu hastily went straight to the study because he was in a hurry to unlock the golden finger. He took out a large volume of exercise scrolls and books from his backpack and started today’s mission.

“Basic Potions, Mysticism, Year Five College Entrance Exam, Year Three Pharmacy, Magical Kinetic Energy, Minerals, and Introduction to Three Hundred Common Sealed Artifacts…

“There are no missing books.

“Let’s start with the Year Five College Entrance Exam, and Year Three Pharmacy then.”

Bai Yu took a deep breath and thought about the golden finger to unlock his grand plan.

From the moment he transmigrated, there was a ticking clock in his mind. It was a semi-transparent box with a 0 out of 30000 numerals in the middle of it.

After all kinds of attempts, he found that only by answering the questions could he increase the counter, and he had to do exercises that matched the level of knowledge in this world.

Things like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division would not be treated as valid data records. Therefore, from the first day of high school when he transmigrated here, Bai Yu had been diligently practicing day and night, immersing himself in the sea of questions every day. Forcing himself to drown in the sea of knowledge.

In this world that was 90% similar to his Earth, the entire knowledge tree system was very different from what he was used to knowing.

Mathematics, chemistry, physics, and other subjects that he was familiar with in his previous life were all listed as primary school discussions topics. They would only be studied in primary schools and junior high schools, and when they reached high school, they were listed as elective subjects, not specialized in specific majors, there was no need to study such menial topics.

Mysticism replaced mathematics and became the framework of basic human understanding. Then, there were the major subjects such as Sealed Biology, Extraordinary Biology, Magical Kinetic Machinery, Spiritual Science, and Ancient Human Martial Arts.

Everyone who wanted to become a warrior needed to take it as a subject in school.

When Bai Yu was introduced with these subjects, he knew that he had probably transmigrated into a world that would make Newton die in peace.

To learn Mysticism, one had to regularly evaluate one’s mental state.

Once there was a problem with one’s mental state, one would immediately be isolated and treated, because if one continued to learn, it was very likely that one would turn into a monster.

Learning not only required money now, but also one’s life.

Ordinary people were very vulnerable in this world.

Bai Yu had been careful over the past three years, trying his best to avoid all kinds of dangers. He quietly became an ordinary student, afraid that he would be involved in all kinds of strange subjects and lose his life.

Fortunately, the counter in his mind had already reached 29,900. As long as he could finish 100 more questions tonight for his mission, he would be able to complete the counter’s requirements.

Right as Bai Yu happily finished his two hours of practice questions, he suddenly heard knocking sounds coming from the next room.

The person who lived next door was a female streamer.

She was different from normal streamers. She was the type of streamer who turned on her camera, did not play games, and did not show her talent. Instead, she relied on twisting her body a few times to beg for a reward.

Every time Bai Yu went to collect the overdue rent, he was afraid that she would get stabbed one day because of her features.

“Didn’t I tell her not to randomly decorate her place? The last time I fixed the wall, it cost me a few thousand dollars.”

Bai Yu planned to argue with her after asking himself the question.

A few minutes later, the knocking still did not stop. Instead, it became more and more intense.

“Don’t people leave when no one answers?”

Bai Yu put down his pen and walked to the next door to knock on the door. Not long after, the security door was pushed open.

A person with a snake-like feature appeared with a face caked with foundation. “Hello there my very friendly landlord, why didn’t you answer my calls? Am I not important enough for you?”

“Are you here to annoy me again?”

Bai Yu stared expressionlessly at the lipstick on the woman’s mouth. He was secretly curious as to how it got there.

“I saw a mouse running around just now. I hit it with my slippers a few times, but it didn’t die.” The woman winked, she deliberately pulled down her collar. “Why don’t you come in and check it out yourself? I haven’t eaten yet, we can share it together downstairs.”

“I’ve already eaten.” Bai Yu instinctively took a step back. “Stop making that much noise. Otherwise, if the other tenants complain, the property owner will come looking for me again.”

“I know, I know… Are you really not coming in?”

The woman giggled as she stared at Bai Yu, giving him goosebumps. Her cheeks were covered with a thick layer of foundation, making her look as pale as a female corpse in a morgue.

Bai Yu rejected the guest politely. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was not right.

Although the female streamer usually wore scary makeup, she would never deliberately wear lipstick that was crooked. Otherwise, her stream would have been ruined.

‘Something’s not right. That’s not lipstick, it’s frozen blood.’ Bai Yu thought to himself. His heart skipped a beat. ‘Why do I smell blood? D*mn it, is she a psychopath here to kill me next?’

Bai Yu reacted. He immediately shut the door on her and took a long breath.

The steady character he had developed over a long period of time faltered and he immediately picked up the phone next to him to call the police. Then, he locked the doors and windows, rummaged through the junk room, and found a hammer.

After weighing the weight of the hammer, Bai Yu still felt uneasy. He started rummaging through the cabinets again and found a large cleaver from the junk room.

“I guess my parents really liked collecting strange things. Still, I guess it could be useful now…” 

Holding onto the large cleaver and sitting on the sofa, Bai Yu’s shivering heart finally felt a glimmer of warmth. He tried his best to keep quiet.

This world was very dangerous!

In the past three years, he had heard of and seen countless people who had been careless die. Even the extraordinaires who managed the order of a region had lost many of their lives in the line of duty. However, the sun would rise in the east and there would always be more replaceable labor.

The violent knocking on the door broke the silence he tried to keep.

“Hey, are you really not hungry? I’ve prepared noodles. Open the door and I’ll bring them in for you.” The female streamer’s voice sounded from outside.

She was here!

Bai Yu sat up straight and pressed onto the door without batting an eyelid. “In the middle of the night, it’s not good for a man and a woman to be in the same room together. You can eat by yourself. I don’t even like noodles.”

He did not dare to look through the peephole to see what was going on outside.

There were some scenes that ordinary people could be affected by just by looking at them, and their sanity values would drop drastically because of it.

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!

The knocking outside did not stop. In fact, it became even more violent as time went by, causing the anti-theft door to shake.

Bai Yu pushed the shoe cabinet towards the door. He turned his gaze and saw the exercise book placed on the coffee table.

“This is an old city district located in the east of Linjiang City. I’ve already described the severity of the problem to the best of my ability to the cops, but it will take at least fifteen minutes for the police to arrive.

“I still have thirteen questions left to solve.

“That means I’ll have about fifteen minutes to finish my mission and leave!”

Bai Yu decided to take a gamble.

Right now, there was an unknown monster knocking on the door, so it was an unlikely scenario for him to escape.

He decided to finish the questions in 15 minutes, then unlock the golden finger. Once the box in his mind is filled, he could use it to escape!

He had no other choice but to take this gamble head one!
