A Top Scholar in Everything - Chapter 7

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Shan had arranged for Bai Yu to stay in a hotel near her home.

The environment was beautiful and the decorations were gorgeous.

After learning that the entire apartment building was Bai Yu’s property given by his parents, she paid the hotel fee without hesitation. Bai Yu could return the money after the matter in the residential area was settled.

Women and their innate instincts. 

In the hotel room, Lin Shan asked Bai Yu many questions before leaving reluctantly.

She was not sure about the source of this supernatural incident.

“This is a report about the recent supernatural incidents. What you experienced this time is very similar to the previous supernatural incidents that have happened before. As a survivor, you might remember something if you think back to what happened step by step.”

Lin Shan left behind a book filled with a lot of information.

Bai Yu picked it up and looked at it. It was all the records and reports of the supernatural incidents that happened previously. He had seen many of them on the news and forums, but they were not as detailed as whatever was in the book.

“Wait, this piece of paper wasn’t the only one?”

Suddenly, Bai Yu found the exact same thing as the mysterious piece of paper in a photo.

Below it was a line of delicate and small words. It was obviously written by Lin Shan.

It was suspected to be a replica of the sealed artifact S-23, Demon Contract.

It was temporarily called the demon paper.

It had extraordinary powers that could affect people’s desires. Ordinary people who came into contact with it had a high probability of producing a distortion. It was suspected that it was a member of the abyssal demonic order that leaked out.

Bai Yu continued to flip the pages. There were three extraordinary incidents caused by this replica, causing hundreds of casualties.

These three demon papers were all taken in by the Pingyi Division.

This further explained the thoughts in Bai Yu’s mind.

This distortion was not a coincidence. From the beginning to the end, it was more like a planned and strategized thing.

Someone deliberately released this extraordinary item to others!

“I don’t think I have any enemies.

“I can count the number of strangers I’ve come into contact with in a year with one hand. It’s unlikely that someone would set up such a trap to deal with me.

“It’s probably targeted for the female streamer. I’m just collateral damage.

“She usually sleeps during the day and broadcasts live at night. Even her meals are all takeout. Only last week, her rich father came to look for her.

“Now it seems that this matter is very likely related to her godfather.

“I don’t have much information about all of that though.

“I don’t know the identity and purpose of the other party. I can’t make an accurate deduction from it. I need more information.”

He turned on the hotel’s self-provided computer.

Bai Yu made a table and listed all the recent extraordinary events in Linjiang City.

These were not confidential information and did not need to be kept secret.

After listing everything on a table, he then marked the events caused by the demon papers. After much observation, he soon discovered the problem.

The three extraordinary events that discovered the devil’s paper were mostly related to the rich. Otherwise, they would have happened in the rich man’s villa.

It seemed to be regional.

Although the female streamer was not rich, her godfather was a rich man who spent a lot of money.

Were the people who leaked the demon paper in the circle of the rich, or were they just looking for money?

That was not right.

The demon paper’s would cause extraordinary events.

It would attract the officials and investigators. How could he take the wealth of the rich for himself?

The other party should not be after the money. Perhaps it was because the mastermind was in the circle of the rich, so it was easier to spread extraordinary items.

The rich had the small tricks of nurturing martial artists and collecting extraordinary items, so their lives were much easier when it came to controlling others.

Bai Yu let out a long breath.

This deduction was obviously more reasonable, and now he only needed to verify it.

He logged into the live streaming website and opened the female streamer’s live streaming room. He found the first rank on the gift list.

“She swiped a million blue coins. Is this from her godfather? He’s really a tycoon.”

Bai Yu clicked on the first rank’s profile picture.

The other party seemed to be a middle-aged man and was not an operating account. He often posted daily life updates in the online space. The comments of the large group of passers-by below shocked the life of a tycoon.

The happiness of a rich person was unimaginable!

Bai Yu immediately registered an alternate account that did not have his real name. He clicked on the profile picture of a tycoon and entered a message.

[I already know the truth. You killed her.]

A minute later, the other party immediately sent three question marks.

“Let’s leave it at that. The news of the female streamer’s death has not yet erupted. When the Blue Sky Daily reports about it tomorrow, this tycoon should know what I meant by it then.

“I won’t reply, if it really has something to do with him, he’ll definitely take the initiative to look for me again.”

If he wanted to complete the system’s main mission, he had to investigate the source himself. Relying on others would not do.

Since it was a matter of safety, Bai Yu was not at ease leaving this matter in the hands of others.

Of course, he could also tell Lin Shan directly. However, this was just his conjecture, and the investigator would probably not accept it.

Most importantly…

The demon paper was still in him.

It was best to keep as little contact as possible with people from other companies. Otherwise, if he was discovered and the other party used special interrogation methods, it was very likely that the Brainiac Space would be exposed!

Bai Yu could not bear the consequences of such a dangerous path.

He closed the computer and entered the Brainiac’s Space with his consciousness.

After he completed the mission, the mission pane fell into a short idle period. It did not refresh, and he could not accept the normal and nightmare difficulty missions.

Only the title main mission had been hanging by the side.

It was now past 12 at night. 

The entire mission pane began to change, and a brand new mission appeared in front of him.

[Normal difficulty: To do a good job, you must first sharpen your weapon. A true scholar should have a strong body as much as a sharp pen.]

[Requirements: Complete 8,000 meters of running distance in an hour, 0/8000 meters.]

[Reward: 100 ancient martial arts knowledge points, one garbage-quality lucky draw opportunity (the reward is 100% garbage).]

[Elite Difficulty: The library is the hot spot for the top students. If you work hard in life, you’ll be able to reap what you sow.]

[Requirements: Study in the library for 8 hours, 0/8 hours.]

[Reward: According to the classification of reading books, specific subject knowledge will be rewarded. The more books you read, the more rewards you will get. A random spirit scroll will be gifted as well when completed.]

[Nightmare Difficulty: Facing the odd situation would cause a lot more trouble. However, only by experiencing the situation head on will one understand the true meaning of this world. You must be alone in a quiet and enclosed environment, then, chant the following secret language repeatedly for 10 minutes…]

[Reward: Unknown! Hint — This mission carries great risks, it is not recommended for beginners!)

The nightmare mission did not change?

Bai Yu had almost figured out the pattern for the missions to appear. The nightmare mission would refresh every day, and it would probably have a longer refresh cycle, or it would only change after it was completed.

It was already 12 at night, so the mission could only be done during the day.

As he thought about it, Bai Yu fell asleep immediately.

The next morning, Bai Yu came to the classroom.

He could not sleep very well last night. In the middle of the night, he dreamed that Lin Shan, who had gone through a metamorphosis, had chased after him and tortured him for an entire night. Therefore, he did not have much energy at the moment. He had two dark circles under his eyes.

“Yu Bai, how’s the preparation for the second model of the month going?”

Ning Qian, who had been in the classroom even before the others arrived, saw Bai Yu and asked hurriedly.

“On it’s way.”

Bai Yu was not in the mood to reply.

“Last time, Yue Zian from the rocket class next door did not get first place. When he went back, he secretly made up his mind and took out his sleep time to revise on his prototype. His goal this time is to surpass you and get first place.”

Ning Qian sat next to Bai Yu. “As our class monitor, we can’t lose to Yue Zian.”

“Well… it’s not good for kids to compare themselves to each other. It’s their own business to learn and grow on their own.”

Bai Yu said earnestly.

“I’m st*pid. I’m not as smart as you. I’m like a monster. I’ve been reading Introduction to Mysticism for a few hours, and there’s nothing abnormal about it. And how many times have I told you not to call me a kid?”

Ning Qian held her chin with both hands and puffed up her cheeks. Her delicate little face was puffed up, and her gaze was filled with both grievance and admiration.

Bai Yu instinctively glanced at the desk.

Seeing the compressed grimmed face on it, he was secretly shocked. Perhaps this st*pid woman had made a deal with an evil god and used her brain to exchange for her breasts. He gave her special lessons every day and often gave her extra tutoring, but it did not help her develop in terms of IQ.

Id*ots were contagious, after all.

Thinking of this, Bai Yu quietly moved to sit down on a seat beside her.

“Oh right, I didn’t know how to answer this spiritual spell question. Tell me about it.”

Ning Qian blushed and moved over again.

“Didn’t you just ask me about this question yesterday?

“Move the talisman of haste up two units and build a corresponding simple spiritual spell model according to the spiritual spell modeling theory of the Great Wizard Euclid.

Then, according to the spiritual power simulation formula, bring it in and solve it.”

“I think I took the wrong one. It’s this question.” Ning Qian’s face turned even redder.

As expected, this st*pid woman was hopeless..
