Chapter 233: Awakening

Chapter 233: Awakening

The fortress was not too big, since the orcs probably built it in a rush–as evident from the state of the newly established buildings, but it was more than big enough for over 700 students.

Not a single class was willing to give in when it came to the supplies, so they obviously started to fight for them. However, that placed Class Seven in an awkward spot, since Xiao Lin was still unconscious. The rest of the monitors did not feel that Qin Chuan could represent Class Seven, so they ended up ignoring that class. After all, everyone understood that the instructors would no longer be related to their year after this examination.

Gu Xiaoyue did not care for the matter, but Zhou Feng was intent on doing his part as the group leader. The bald man personally rushed to the hastily-constructed headquarters. It might have been called a headquarters, but it was just a room with a table and a few chairs. An intense struggle ensued within.

The bald man looked very fierce; even Class Seven’s own students were reluctant to interact with him, let alone the other classes. However, Zhou Feng was not stupid; he held on to one simple condition, which was to allocate the resources based on how much each class contributed to the prior battles.

It was undeniable that Xiao Lin contributed a lot that day. Even though they did not tally the kills, Xiao Lin still helped the other classes on the beach on his own volition, which was enough to prove his skill. Then came Xiao Lin holding down the orc commander alone when they assaulted the fortress, buying valuable time for the rest of the classes, and even landing the finishing blow on the commander.

Of course, no one was willing to concede the last fact, since the orc commander died in mysterious circumstances. Even Cheng Ming was not willing to give a conclusion.

However, as they were in deep discussion, Xiao Lin finally woke up after spending half the day unconscious, causing the students who were taking care of him to almost hug him excitedly.

To put things simply, even if it was not the whole class, at least half of Class Seven had put their faith in Xiao Lin as their class monitor. These students were actually easy enough to convince; they did not believe in Xiao Lin only because they did not trust his skill before then, especially due to his attributes when he first entered the academy.

The class monitors had a lot of responsibility, and after that examination, the class monitors would be their leaders on various tasks, even when they headed into the New World. That was why they were worried Xiao Lin would cause them trouble if his abilities were not up to par. However, after the earlier battle, especially when those who were not part of the squad attacking the fortress witnessed his shocking battle against the orc commander, their opinions started to change drastically.

Xiao Lin opened his eyes, the bright sunlight hitting his eyes causing him to feel dizzy. He hurriedly shut his eyes, asking, “How long was I out for?”

He did not know what season it was, but it was definitely not cold. Just as Xiao Lin was about to get up for some water, he noticed a cup of water right in front of him.

Xiao Lin finally opened his eyes after getting accustomed to the sunlight. He looked at a fair and dainty hand, followed the arm as he looked up, before noticing the owner of the hand: Gu Xiaoyue–looking as cold as always.

“Thanks.” Xiao Lin gulped down the water, pleasantly surprised, but he quickly clenched his teeth, “That’s salty!”

Gu Xiaoyue pushed up her glasses. “You sweated a lot while you were unconscious, and I heard you lost a lot of blood… I found some salt in the warehouse, so I added a little.”

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly. “An isotonic drink? I get what you’re trying to do, but I think you might have added too much salt… Whatever, let’s not talk about that. Judging by our current situation, the fortress must have been taken over. What’s happening right now?”

Gu Xiaoyue was prepared, passing over a small notebook, “I’ve noted down everything that happened.”

Xiao Lin paused for a good moment before receiving the notebook. He actually felt like having a proper chat with Gu Xiaoyue since it was so hard to get anything out of her mouth normally.

However, Xiao Lin quickly shifted his focus onto the neat words within the notebook. The various arrangements that were made after entering the fortress, including the establishment of the headquarters, the prisoner situation, and discussion on the supplies were all noted down with great detail.

‘What a meticulous woman,’ Xiao Lin exclaimed in his mind. In only a few minutes, he was basically caught up with everything that had happened while he was unconscious.

He still wanted to take the chance to talk to Gu Xiaoyue, but Qin Chuan suddenly appeared. He was surprised and excited when he saw that Xiao Lin was awake, asking Xiao Lin if he had any lingering issues with some concern.

Qin Chuan had seen his battle with the orc commander, and Xiao Lin’s condition after the battle did leave them a lot to worry about.

Xiao Lin had some doubts as well. He did not remember anything after the first time the orc struck him down. At the time, he had thought his examination would end there, but Gu Xiaoyue’s notes felt like a dream to him. Not only did he survive, he even somehow exploded and completely suppressed the orc commander?

Surely they were joking. Xiao Lin definitely did not think he was some sort of holy warrior or Super Saiyan.

Gu Xiaoyue did not attack the fortress herself, so she did not know a lot of the finer details. Xiao Lin immediately talked to Qin Chuan, asking him to recount the battle.

Xiao Lin’s face got weirder the more he heard. He absolutely could not believe it. He suddenly noticed an important detail, interrupting Qin Chuan as he asked, “You said that when I went berserk–yes, let’s just call it going berserk for now–you felt a stifling feeling. Were you the only one that felt it?”

“No, after the matter, the other monitors and instructors said they felt it as well, but the feeling didn’t last long, so we suspected it was just our imagination,” Qin Chuan said.

“Oh, could you describe how you felt?” Xiao Lin felt like he was missing out on something important.

Qin Chuan was in a difficult spot. It was obvious that he found it hard to explain, even though he had a year of experience under his belt. However, he seemed to remember something, half-jokingly saying, “To tell you the truth, it felt similar to the pressure I felt when the dragon descended on us during the opening ceremony. Obviously, it was much weaker than back then.”

The pressure back then was caused by the draconic power of the golden dragon, but there were no dragons around here, and Xiao Lin definitely did not think he was related to that beast in any way.

That was just a joke, and Xiao Lin smiled at it as well, but the more he smiled, the more a strange idea began to form in his head, causing his smile to suddenly disappear.
