[ Cold Crystal Spring Water: Upon using this item, the target’s [ Anxious ] , [ Fearful ] , [ Nervous ] , and various other negative states will be purified into the [ Calm ] state. ]
[ Calm: Under this state, the target’s Mind and Intelligence attributes will be increased. ]
…
Chen Yilang felt a bit of a headache.
Although it looked like a powerful item, upon closer inspection, it felt more like a sedative instead.
However, since it was a tool given by the system, it should be much more useful than a sedative in real life.
Moreover, as he had only just learned the [ Synthesis ] skill , he could not expect to synthesize something advanced.
Chen Yilang placed the [ Cold Crystal Spring Water ] into his backpack.
He did not know when it would come in handy. Perhaps he would use it to suppress any depressing urges in the middle of the night.
Chen Yilang, who was starting to feel sleepy again, yawned. He got up, took a shower, and was just about to go to sleep, when suddenly, his phone rang.
Chen Yilang pulled up his WeChat, and just as he had expected, his class’ group chat was in an uproar.
For these high school seniors, it was the day where they had finally attained freedom. As such, it made perfect sense to celebrate.
Chen Yilang casually browsed through the chat logs.
Most of the topics were about the exam they had taken during the afternoon.
“Sigh, I didn’t expect my English papers to fare worse than my science ones!”
“Ikr, especially for the listening test. That long conversation that had taken place felt like a nightmare for me. It felt as if they were speaking the Language of the Gods…”
“It’s fine, it’s fine, seeing how difficult the English paper was, I dare say, that other than those top students who aren’t even human, I don’t think there will be many who will do well for English this year. If you don’t believe me, just wait for the results to be released…”
Chen Yilang did not join the conversation.
After all, he had completed the English exam rather smoothly and he did not feel a single ounce of pressure.
After thinking for a while, Chen Yilang decided to just continue keeping quiet and watch his classmates rant.
At this moment.
Chen Yilang realized that he seemed to have been pulled into another group chat.
Upon opening it, he saw that the name was “Graduation Tourism Team”.
It was a small group that consisted of a couple of his classmates as well as a couple other WeChat accounts whom Chen Yilang did not recognize.
“To mah dear famileh!”
“The college entrance exam is over. Do you guys want to go on a trip together?”
“I’ve already planned the trip out. We’ll be visiting Yunzhou City. The trip will last for around three days or so, and this isn’t part of any tour package!”
“Everything has already been prepared. All that’s left is for you all to prepare your luggage and money, and we can immediately depart!”
…
The person who spoke was Chen Jiahui, who was also the admin of the group.
Chen Yilang was slightly stunned.
He was a little surprised.
He really did not expect Chen Jiahui, of all people, to invite him on a graduation trip.
Although the two of them had been sitting at the same table for quite a long time and were very familiar with each other, Chen Yilang still felt as if there was a wall between themselves.
After all, communication between him and Chen Jiahui had always been limited to within the school. Although they usually discussed many topics while they were in school, they basically did not chat with one another once they returned home.
[ Ding! ]
[ Congratulations! ]
[ You have triggered a new hidden quest! ]
[ Quest: It All Begins with a Check-in! ]
[ Details: All grand ambitions must start from somewhere, perhaps by setting a small goal, like obtaining 100 million RMB. Naturally, 100 million might still be out of reach for you, but a small goal like checking-in should pose no problem for you, right? ]
[ Fulfilment Criteria: Check-in in Yunzhou City. ]
…
“Check in?”
Chen Yilang was stunned again.
He did not expect that this system to come up with yet another new mechanic.
Checking-in was basically the bread-and-butter of most online games.
Most of the time, check-in systems were implemented such that the longer and the more they checked-in, the more generous the rewards players would receive.
The ultimate goal of check-in systems was to increase player retention, and to promote loyalty, so that players would feel pressured to log in daily.
However, the system was now telling him to check-in in Yunzhou City.
That was certainly quite the trip.
However, after pondering for a while, Chen Yilang realized that there was no harm anyway.
After all, the holidays after the college entrance examination were quite a dull period.
There was no way a salted fish like Chen Yilang would take up a summer job. Doing so simply went against his principles.
Should he study university courses in advance?
He felt that it was not necessary.
In that case, going on a trip seemed like a reasonable plan.
Moreover, since the itinerary for the trip had already been arranged by someone. There was no need for him to rack his brain, so, why not?
Upon this thought, Chen Yilang immediately sent a message: “Sure, count me in.”
Lin Jie: “Oh my God, Genius Brother Lang has spoken! I assumed that a nerd like you would’ve started studying calculus for college already! :P”
[ Ding! ]
[ Level 3 Drama Queen ] activated the skill [ Sarcastic ] , dealing damage to you! ]
[ HP-12 ]
Why is this person here…
Chen Yilang felt a headache coming up again.
He still regretted not defeating the [ Drama Queen ] previously.
Nevertheless, at this point, Chen Yilang was no longer afraid of this [ Drama Queen ] .
The first time he encountered him, Chen Yilang was only level 1. It was only natural that he was incapable of defeating him.
But now, Chen Yilang was already level 5. Defeating a level 3 mob would be a cinch for him!
Unfortunately, as no one else had decided to entertain him, Chen Yilang decided to make fun of the silence to his response instead.
Chen Yilang: “?”
Chen Yilang: “Kek.”
Lin Jie: “Zip it!”
[ Ding! ]
[ You used [ intimidation ] , dealing a large amount of mental damage to [ Level 3 Drama Queen ] ! ]
[ Level 3 Drama Queen ] entered [ Fearful ] State! ]
[Obtained 1. Gold Coin + 68 2. Experience + 45 ]
…
“Hahaha, Lin Jie, I can’t believe you got shut down this quickly!”
“He couldn’t help it, Lin Jie could never beat Brother Lang, after all. Brother Lang is a man who can even pin a bully outside the school to the ground.”
“Let’s stop making fun of him, Lin Jie might leave the group later, hahaha.”
Two other individuals whom Chen Yilang did not recognized chimed in and teased Lin Jie.
Lin Jie had indeed gone silent after that.
However, there was actually a small notification box on the profile pictures of these two people.
One was [ Level 4 Pigeon King ] .
The other was [ Level 5 Precious ] .
“…”
Chen Yilang’s forehead was sweating slightly.
F*ck.
Who formed this tour group? Why does it feel like it’s filled with shady individuals?
However, Chen Yilang was too lazy to think about it.
He was already very sleepy.
It was probably because he had experienced the high-intensity torture of two consecutive days of exams.
That night, Chen Yilang slept exceptionally soundly.
When he got up early in the morning, Chen Yilang received a group notification.
Chen Jiahui had sent the itinerary to the group and they were to set off early the next morning.
Using this one day of downtime, Chen Yilang decided to ask some funding from his parents.

Then, he went to the supermarket to buy some travel supplies. Upon returning home, he put them all into his suitcase and packed them up.
“Phew.”
Once he was done, Chen Yilang heaved a sigh of relief.
Now that everything was ready, he only needed to check-in!
