The Most Random System-Chapter 770 - 383: People Don’t Feel Bitter or Tired When Doing Bad Things

After enjoying his windfall, Lin Li focused on Task Two, which he needed to complete himself.

According to the task's content, Lin Li guessed that the power outage was caused by insects.

The task's intro phrase "enter the fray, risk life to break through" most likely meant that those insects crawled into live electric equipment like the transformer in the control cabinet, getting themselves fried and causing a short circuit.

As for the task requirements, it's quite understandable: lobby the school for repairs on these electric devices and participate in the process.

As for what "repairs" specifically entail, Lin Li figured it wasn't a large-scale project like redesigning circuit diagrams and wire configurations, but simply refurbishing the devices and making it harder for insects to get in.

The task's reward is quite nice.

The "Spirit Gathering Celestial Array" would greatly benefit Lin Li's cultivation; if he could get one of that quality again, the gains would be very promising.

But what Lin Li looked forward to more, and considered a baseline reward, was the array materials.

Unlike last time's randomness, this time he gets to choose from five specific items, and the list he could choose from is so long that its end couldn't be seen at a glance.

Most of them were names Lin Li didn't recognize; the few he did were because Shanqing Daoist had given him 'textbooks', so he had learned a bit.

It seemed to cover all mid-grade and lower materials in the Cultivation Realm.

And the reason Lin Li hadn't even managed to craft the most basic arrays in reality was due to a lack of materials.

With this reward, he should be able to select one or two needed arrays and replicate them in reality.

The reward is "one set", meaning that regardless of whether he chose mid-grade or low-grade materials of the same type, the quantity is the same.

So both "low-grade Spirit Stones" and "mid-grade Spirit Stones" come in sets of three, with no scenario where a set of low-grade Spirit Stones comes with more.

Thus, the best cost-performance method for this item is to only exchange for mid-grade materials.

But it's still a bit early to think about these things now, so Lin Li began pondering how to complete it.

It wasn't difficult.

Lin Li quickly thought of a workable plan, but he surely wouldn't have time to implement it this week, maybe next week.

"Lin Li, what are you thinking about so engrossed?" Chen Yu Ying's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Thinking about your hands, how white, soft, and small they are." Lin Li immediately replied.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu Ying gently hit Lin Li with her white, soft, small hands and gave him a reproachful look: "Come on, we're already late."

Due to the power outage, the current time had indeed passed the usual start time for tutoring.

Chen Tianming hadn't returned yet, which meant the tutoring hadn't been canceled for tonight.

So it was time to go.

"Coming, coming." So Lin Li got up and followed Chen Yu Ying out.

Yet, Lin Li's figure disappeared through the back door for only a short while before he quickly jogged back, his whole face unable to hold back his stifled laughter.

Lin Li first came to Zhou Baowei and Qin Zeyu, whispering to the two of them.

The next second, both of them glanced at Wang Ze in the front row, smiles spreading on their faces.

Good things must be shared, and Lin Li then looked at Bai Bufan.

Bai Bufan, having heard the commotion beside him, had been waiting eagerly with anticipation.

Remember, when confronted with bad influences, Bai Bufan only says it is not enough!

And seeing Lin Li's expression and the reactions of Zhou and Qin, Bufan knew there was fun to be had, big fun!

Lin Li met Bufan's expectations, leaning in with words and body: "Quick, quick, Bufan, sneak over to Wang Ze and see what he's doing! Damn!! This is really happening!"

Bai Bufan's eyes lit up, and he nodded, afraid to miss out, so he quickly stood up but restrained his excitement to avoid alerting the situation.

Getting close.

"Damn? Bufan? What are you doing? Why are you coming over all of a sudden?"

Feeling someone staring at him from behind, Wang Ze turned around and jumped in fear when he saw it was indeed Bai Bufan.

"What are you doing?" Realizing he'd been discovered, Bai Bufan stopped pretending, directly pushed Wang Ze towards the podium, and started rummaging through Wang Ze's drawer as he questioned.

"Huh? What? I wasn't doing anything, I was just daydreaming?" Wang Ze, never reacting, didn't stop Bai Bufan, but with some confusion asked, "Bufan, what are you looking for?"

"Looking for some fun."

"What? What fun?"

"The fun in your spot!"

"Huh?? What fun? I don't know?"

"Come on," Bai Bufan scoffed, continuing to rummage through the drawer, utterly convinced, "With what I know about Lin Li, his earlier expression wasn't fake. He definitely found something awesome! Wang Ze, you can't hide it!"

A hand patted his shoulder, and Wang Ze's somewhat embarrassed voice came: "Bufan, why don't you get up first."

"I won't! Unless you confess!"

The shoulder was still being tapped, and Wang Ze seemed more helpless: "There's no way to confess… Can you get up…"

"Stop patting, Wang Ze, I'm not getting up till I find that fun!"

Wang Ze's voice trembled: "But, it's not me patting."

Bai Bufan: "Then who the hell could it be?"

Xue Jian: "It's me, Xue Jian."

Bai Bufan: "(;☉_☉)?"

Upon hearing this conversation, Wang Ze couldn't hold back any longer and silently turned his head towards the podium, using his head to knock against it—using pain to help his already mighty face suppress the laughter from coming out.

The fun that Lin Li spoke of, though Bai Bufan hadn't found it yet, Wang Ze felt…he'd found it.

At this moment, Bai Bufan maintained his bent-over position rummaging through the drawer.

However, the movement had stopped.

Exactly a second after this somewhat familiar conversation concluded, he slowly straightened his upper body, gradually turned his head, and after making eye contact with Xue Jian's expressionless face, slowly broke into a smile seemingly harmful only to himself:

"Hello, old teacher…"

"It's self-study night session now, what are you doing in the front row?" Xue Jian said expressionless.

"Borrowing, borrowing a pen." Grabbing the pen from Wang Ze's hand, Bai Bufan awkwardly smiled.

"Go back to your seat; tomorrow I'll ask your parents to buy you more pens." Borrowing a pen from the last row to the first? Such an excuse could be said, Xue Jian coldly chuckled.

"Thank, thank you, teacher."

Face stiff, Bai Bufan returned to the last row.

He watched through the corner of his eye, seeing Zhou Baowei and Qin Zeyu almost crying from holding in laughter and gripping the desk and chair so hard their hands turned white.

Bai Bufan let out a pitiful laugh, then somewhat gnashing his teeth: "Bao Wei, come on, you damn, tell·me·what Lin Li said to you two just now."

Zhou Baowei's face contorted with laughter, but without hesitation, he sold Lin Li out:

"Lin Li just said—

'Bao Wei, Ze Yu, quick, cooperate with me, glance at Wang Ze, then immediately laugh, don't ask why, just laugh wildly! I'd never treat you guys unfairly! Quick!'"

Bai Bufan: "(•́へ•́╬)!!!"

Comparing this, Bai Bufan indeed found that the two's previous laughter didn't seem so genuine!!

Laughter is contagious, so Bai Bufan laughed as well.

However, Bai Bufan laughed with twitching mouth corners, veins popping.

He gradually understood—

A long time ago, a student left the classroom, saw his class teacher heading towards the class, and had a devious plan arise. Then he deliberately left his girlfriend to run back, tempting his tablemate to leave their seat, just to have a showdown with Xue Jian.

Haha, what an interesting story.

Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!

Ah, ah, ah, ah, Red Stone, Red Stone! Lin Li! As a ghost, I won't let you off!!
