Choosing a C-Class Hero: Three Years of Ridicule Across the Internet - Chapter 48
Chapter 48: Your Problem is Very Serious
Meanwhile, in the conference room, only some important leaders and Tang Zichen remained.
The other teachers had been asked to leave by the vice principal.
“Student Tang Zichen, there are some important questions that need to be addressed, and I have been entrusted by the higher-ups to inquire about them.”
The vice principal’s expression became serious: “Originally, these questions should have been asked by the principal in person, but the principal is still at the front line providing support and cannot return for the time being.”
Tang Zichen remained calm and asked a curious question, “Principal, how is the situation in the capital?”
“It’s almost stabilised!”
The vice principal showed a happy expression: “Under Ms. Qin’s suppression, the monster tide has basically been brought under control. Now we are rebuilding the city walls. If all goes well, they will be completed in two months. By then, the principal will be able to return, and we can move back to the capital.”
Although the vice principal said this with a smile, Tang Zichen felt that his smile seemed a bit forced.
Well, if Principal Lu were to leave, wouldn’t he smoothly ascend to the position and remove that “vice” title?
“Ms. Qin is really amazing. It is said that ten days ago, she had another breakthrough and attracted a meteorite from outer space, directly killing tens of thousands of monsters, stabilising the situation in one fell swoop.”
“Such means are no different from the legendary immortal spells. Truly worthy of being the pillar of our Xia Country!”
The vice principal’s gaze shifted to Tang Zichen, with a fervent hope: “Student Tang Zichen, you are even more outstanding than Ms. Qin at the same period. I believe in you. As long as you don’t make any more mistakes in the upcoming secret realm, your future achievements will definitely not be inferior to Ms. Qin.”
This statement was quite suggestive. What does it mean to not make any more mistakes?
Was teaming up with Chen Ye a mistake? Heh heh…
Tang Zichen could clearly understand the vice principal’s implication.
She didn’t want to respond and said, “Principal, please ask whatever you want.”
As a student, not responding to the vice principal’s words would be considered impolite. But the vice principal didn’t mind at all.
Even for Wu University as a whole, students like Tang Zichen were treasures, held in such high regard that no one dared to have any objections?
“It’s like this, Tang Zichen. Did you encounter any targeting from new students from other countries in the secret realm?”
“Yes!”
Tang Zichen didn’t hide anything: “There were over a hundred new students from various countries who surrounded me and Chen Ye in the secret realm. Of course, their main target was me, and Chen Ye was implicated because of me.”
Upon hearing this, even though they knew that Tang Zichen had escaped danger, the school leaders were still furious.
“They actually dared to take action in the secret realm! These shameless scoundrels, they are blatantly violating the secret realm convention!”
The leaders cursed angrily, their faces full of indignation. This wasn’t an act.
If Tang Zichen had died in the secret realm, these school leaders would have been implicated and held accountable to some extent, affecting their future prospects.
The vice principal asked, “So, how did you escape?”
“This is a long story. Dear leaders, you’d better watch the video!”
Tang Zichen stood up, connected her phone to the projector in the conference room, and then played the video.
Of course, the video was taken by Chen Ye.
At the time in the secret realm, he was confident that he and Tang Zichen wouldn’t die, and those small fry would be cleanly killed by him to prevent international disputes, so he intentionally recorded the video as evidence.
Now it came in handy.
As the video played, the initial scene showed a group of people surrounding Chen Ye and Tang Zichen in the middle.
As the camera rotated, the school leaders could clearly see those people, black, white, yellow, brown… people of various races, clearly from different countries.
And, each person’s face was filled with undisguised killing intent. Even a fool could tell that these people meant trouble.
A young man from Wa country even laughed heartily at the camera: “I know you. I heard that you coincidentally matched with a C-level hero during the live broadcast? I admire your courage… Are you planning to keep the video as evidence by using your phone?”
“Only if you get out alive, can the video in your hands be considered evidence. Unfortunately, you and your girlfriend are about to be buried here soon.”
Then, Tang Zichen’s voice sounded, “Did you come for me?”
The Wa country youth admitted without care, “That’s right, each team here represents a country. Just like us, they all don’t want another Ms. Qin from Xia country!”
Seeing this, the school leaders were already filled with anger.
Bam!
The head teacher couldn’t help it and slapped the table heavily, cursing loudly, “These beasts, shameless! They deserve to die!”
The vice principal, with a serious face, said, “Let’s watch the video first and then express our emotions later.”
Once he spoke, the others naturally had no objections and suppressed their anger, patiently watching the video.
The video continued playing.
Soon, Tang Zichen’s voice sounded again: “My companion is innocent. Can you let him go first?”
After being refused, Tang Zichen whispered again, “Chen Ye, when the time comes, start moving. Run to the left, don’t look back. I’ll try to hold them off and buy you some time!”
Hearing Tang Zichen’s words, the faces of the school leaders were even more serious than before!!
For a girl to let a boy run first in a life-threatening situation was enough to illustrate the problem, wasn’t it?
The vice principal and the head teacher exchanged a glance, seeing the seriousness of the matter in each other’s eyes.
The thing they were most worried about seemed to have happened…
…
Soon, the video reached the scene where Lee Jae-rong stepped forward.
The subsequent developments shocked all the school leaders, leaving them speechless and incredulous.
Lee Jae-rong, he turned out to be the younger brother of Lee Jong-hyun, who committed monstrous crimes years ago…
It was because of Lee Jong-hui’s actions that the impact was so great that it led to the joint creation of the Secret Realm Convention by multiple countries.
The most important point in the treaty was to prohibit new students from various countries from killing each other in the secret realm.
Then, Lee Jae-rong took out the decayed heart, which caused the appearance of evolved zombies, and began to wreak havoc.
The video also ended here.
Tang Zichen’s voice timely rang out: “The situation was critical at the time. Chen Ye and I escaped in the chaos. We don’t know what happened next.”
This was the story that Chen Ye and she had agreed upon. The more they said, the more loopholes there would be.
The best excuse was to know nothing at all. Hearing Tang Zichen’s words, the school leaders still looked shocked.
The variable of Lee Jae-rong was something they had never expected.
The appearance of evolved zombies made it even more unbelievable.
Years ago, the whereabouts of the evolved zombies were unknown. Everyone believed that they had been wiped out by the secret realm.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, those monsters had been sleeping in the No. 1 secret realm all along, in a state of dormancy.
Although the evolved zombies were nothing to these school leaders, as they could easily subdue them.
But, for new students who had just obtained hero talents, such monsters were definitely nightmares that were hard to match!
It was already a great fortune for Tang Zichen to escape. Now that the monster had awakened, wouldn’t next year’s new students be in great danger?
“I didn’t expect that the monster was still in the No. 1 secret realm!”
The vice principal’s face was serious as he said, “This matter is very important. I need to report it immediately!”
