Two mission panels popped up one after another. Shen Nian studied them line by line.
Damn, you beat the low-level monsters, then come the mid-level ones. Beat the mid-level ones, and here come the high-level ones. Beat the high-level monsters, and now there's a Demon General under the Demon King.
Beat the junior ones and the seniors come?
Following the usual pattern, that so-called Demon General under the Demon King should be the first mock college entrance exam at the end of the month.
Damn, in a sense, that thing really is a general under the Demon King, quite a heavyweight.
The new mission only offered a gold coin reward, which Shen Nian initially looked down on.
But the amount was just too damn high.
Fifty thousand yuan, huh.
Added to his current savings, he could already buy a fairly ordinary small car.
He'd talked about buying a car right after graduation before, but it looks like he won't have to wait that long.
But Shen Nian wasn't a fool. Buying a car that quickly would definitely lead to a serious interrogation at home.
Buying an electric scooter for a few thousand could still be explained away, but suddenly pulling out over a hundred thousand to buy a car? Even getting into Tsinghua or Peking University wouldn't clear him of suspicion.
The newly acquired [Advanced Adventurer] title automatically replaced the [Intermediate Adventurer] one. Leaving aside charm and stamina for now, the extra three points in agility gave Shen Nian his first direct, tangible feeling of the changes brought by the system.
Agility wasn't just about movement...
Focus, reaction... Shen Nian felt a slight improvement in all of them.
When Xia Yanchun casually brushed her hair aside, he could notice it without even trying to pay attention.
When he focused on looking out the window, it seemed he could see farther too...
Such a direct enhancement, truly terrifying.
Could I really be the empowered guy?
Could I really react like a shell?
Could I really be a genius youth?
High agility feels great, quit deer, eighteen years old, twitch reflexes, sorry bro, my 28k headset heard your footsteps, instant headshot!
As for the charm attribute, Shen Nian didn't pay much attention to it anymore; it was as good as not having it.
His charm was already maxed out, that's just me.
The extra point in stamina was even more useless. With his high spirits, he almost never ran out of stamina; running a full marathon would be a breeze.
If there's a marathon nearby someday, he'd give it a try.
Class ended. Chen Dong turned around. "Going to drain the dragon?"
"Nah," Shen Nian answered directly. "New clothes."
"What does your new clothes have to do with draining the dragon?"
"You idiot would wipe it on me."
Chen Dong laughed in exasperation. When was it ever Shen Nian who wiped on him? It was always the other way around. Talk about turning the world upside down.
Chen Dong then slapped Ma Mingfan. "Stop sleeping, or you'll get chased by the Candy Super Sweet squad again. Let's go to the bathroom."
"You scared me, you dog, Chen Dong."
Shen Nian didn't really feel the urge, too lazy to make the trip.
He'd bought a new water bottle a few days ago. With sufficient water intake now, he hardly bought drinks anymore. He used to have two or three bottles a day, but since buying the bottle, he'd only bought one iced tea during Tuesday's P.E. class.
How to put it? Quitting drinks counts as a form of self-discipline, right?
But it was meaningless for him; he could just... self-service.
No choice. Xia Yanchun strictly controlled his drink purchases. Every time he wanted to buy one, she'd look at him with that 'you again, you rascal' expression.
The seat by the wall and window was special. Hottest when it was hot, coldest when it was cold. Even with the window closed, a faint trace of chill from outside could still seep in.
Could this year really be the coldest one?
It's only early winter and it's already 11 degrees. It might actually snow today.
Shen Nian propped his chin on his hand, zoning out quietly for a moment. Suddenly, he sensed someone approaching. He turned his head and met the gaze of Xia Yanchun, who was sneaking over.
"What are you doing..."
Xia Yanchun immediately stuffed both her small hands into her pockets. "Nothing, just wanted to come over and look."
Shen Nian gave a forced smile. See, agility +3 is useful. Almost got sneak-attacked by this bad woman.
"You better not be trying to freeze me."
"How could I? I'm not that mean." Xia Yanchun awkwardly walked to the window, opened a crack, and the cold wind from outside immediately seeped in, needling her fair little face, stinging with cold.
"Really not?"
"I'm a bit dizzy, came over to look at the scenery to relieve eye strain, okay? Don't flatter yourself, Shen Nian. No one wants to get close to you."
"Aren't you right next to me now?"
"I told you, I'm here for the scenery."
This car is so car, this sky is so sky, this scenery is so scenery.
Xia Yanchun helped Shen Nian tie up the curtain. The corner at the back by the window instantly became much brighter. She pulled out the chair next to him and sat down, extending her two small hands.
"Do you have any Dabao cream? My hands have chilblains."
"Pathetic. I don't have any."
"..."
With an attitude like his, how has he managed to hang out with a bunch of girls since childhood? Is everyone except me a masochist?
Xia Yanchun began pondering life, quietly retracting her hands.
"I don't have Dabao either. We're bros, I'll just buy you a bottle at noon, alright?"
"Forget it. I'll borrow from someone else. I'm leaving."
Xia Yanchun expressionlessly pushed herself up from her knees, pretending to leave.
Just two steps behind Shen Nian, her hand shot out and darted toward the back of his neck.
"Damn!"
"Hahahaha!" Xia Yanchun was satisfied now.
"And you say you're not a bad woman..." Shen Nian muttered. That really woke him up.
If they were at home, he would have definitely retaliated. The classroom saved Xia Yanchun.
A girl putting her hand into a guy's clothes is just playing around to freeze you. A guy putting his hand into a girl's clothes? That's a free seven-day stay courtesy of the state.
It made Shen Nian so angry he felt like a popsicle.
Watching Xia Yanchun go borrow Dabao cream from another girl, Shen Nian stroked his chin.
The classroom wasn't that cold, so why were Chun Bao's hands still so icy?
In contrast, his own limbs were almost always warm; he never had cold hands and feet when sleeping at night.
Well, nothing for it then. To ensure Chun Bao has warm hands and feet while sleeping, tonight he'll just have to reluctantly sacrifice himself and sleep with Chun Bao.
He could use his healing touch to treat Xia Yanchun's chilblains, but there was no way she'd let him hold her hand in public.
Huh?
Shen Nian froze. A system mission abruptly appeared.
[Triggered Side Mission: Renowned Far and Wide
As an Advanced Adventurer, you are bound to become an example for everyone. Please increase your Adventurer prestige.
Reward: 1000 gold coins, Survival Skill: Cooking Mastery]
Huh? Huh?!
A survival skill?!
The last survival skill was Fishing Mastery. He knew exactly how overpowered that was.
Fishing Mastery made fish hook themselves without even struggling.
So Cooking Mastery... wouldn't that mean, bro just puts two pieces of beef in the pan, and they flip themselves a couple times and turn into a dish?
