Глава 32

Qing Chen said, "Congratulations on Mr. He's election as the executive director of Hu's intelligence agency."

He Jinqiu shook his head: "Although I am the executive director and manage all the operations of the organization, there is also an independent director who is responsible for supervising me, so I can't do whatever I want. I plan to help Ms. Li Changqing become an independent director of the organization. What do you think?"

“Why are you asking me? You should ask her,” Qingchen said.

At this moment, Qing Chen became serious: "During the rescue operation, you two assisted Li Changqing in the fight, thank you for that."

Zheng Yuandong shook his head: "Actually, Kunlun's stance has always been the same: to protect our fellow Chinese Time Travelers in the world of watches. Of course, you are also within our protection scope."

Qing Chen suddenly asked, "You two should be the earliest 'players' to enter the inner world, right? I'd like to ask if you know why the time travel incident occurred, and why there are time travelers?"

He Jinqiu pondered for a moment: "There is no conclusion yet. There are two speculations. One is that the problems in the inner world are too deep to be solved, so an external force is needed to break this balance."

Zheng Yuandong said, "Another possibility is that the forbidden land will cover the entire Federation, and someone is preparing for the people of the inner world to move to the outer world. Of course, our guesses may not be correct."

Qing Chen didn't ask any more questions. What he really wanted to know was who the person who orchestrated the time travel incident was. Since Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu were beta testers, they must know who this person was.

But by asking this question, he essentially knew the two people's beta test identities.

Those who know about beta testers are most likely beta testers themselves.

In this way, Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu could also guess that he was not a representative of the world.

Zheng Yuandong asked, "Shall we try the Key Gate?"

Qing Chen was a little puzzled: "Kunlun has been trying to get me to attend school, and they've been putting on a show of giving me the Eye of True Sight as a gift if I attend. What exactly are they planning?"

Zheng Yuandong laughed heartily: "No need to be so vigilant. Go report for duty. The members of Bai Zhou have already arrived. There's one thing I need to remind you: Bai Zhou is just a student here, and they are equal to the other students."

"This sign only indicates the direction of the dormitories. Where are the teaching buildings?" Qing Chen looked around and saw only the dormitory area, which looked like a galaxy, but he couldn't see the teaching area. Could it be on the other side of the island?

The island is the size of a city, and you can't see the end of it at a glance.

On the other side of the island, Qingchen clearly saw a lush, dense forest... It was clearly a forbidden place.

Qing Chen bid farewell to Zheng Yuandong and He Jinqiu and headed towards the hotel-style dormitory.

He Jinqiu smiled and said, "It's really not easy for you to find Whale Island. Otherwise, there probably wouldn't even be a place to set up a school. Bringing Whale Island from the Inner World must have come at a great cost. You see, Time Travelers are also human beings and fellow citizens, but they are not accepted by all ordinary people."

"What are you trying to say? Do you want to create a place that belongs only to time travelers?" Zheng Yuandong asked, looking into the distance.

He Jinqiu smiled and paused on the black scepter in his hand: "You know what I'm going to say, and I will do it. Last month, one of my Kyushu members was ambushed by seven ordinary people while on a mission, and they took away his mechanical limbs; another Kyushu member's identity as a time traveler was discovered, and when his neighbor's house caught fire due to aging wiring, those people said it must have been him, the time traveler, who caused the damage and made him pay compensation; yet another Kyushu member had a mechanical limb, and his neighbor complained that his mechanical limb emitted too much radiation, causing headaches for the elderly in his family... Old squad leader, this world is not only full of smart and rational people, but also many people who are afraid of radiation from telecommunications base stations. Some of them are jealous of time travelers, and some are hostile to time travelers."

Zheng Yuandong remained silent; Kunlun members had encountered similar situations before.

He Jinqiu said, "I will not let this happen to any member of Kyushu again, and you wouldn't want this to happen to any member of Kunlun either."

With that, he stepped through the key gate and returned to Kunlun Bookstore.

At this moment, inside the Kunlun Bookstore, Lu Yuan was directing the Kunlun people: "Come on, take down the iron gate."

Several Kunlun members removed the iron gate from the wall. Only then did He Jinqiu realize that the iron gate used to open the key door was actually movable...

The key gate opens on the iron gate; wherever the iron gate is, there lies the spatial passage.

He Jinqiu suddenly thought of the phrase "fleeing through the door." If someone were to take this iron gate away, who knew what would happen...

Wait a minute, this Key Gate can be used as a mobile troop deployment point, and Whale Island is a natural forward base.

Which enemy could have imagined that tens of thousands of people could suddenly emerge from a broken iron gate that had been torn down?

...

...

In the dormitory, Chen Sui was talking quietly with a roommate: "Although we've come to the academy, the development of the Matrix organization can't stop. I asked someone at the academy, and they said that not only can we rent server rooms on this island, but we can also rent laboratories."

This is the high school dormitory area, with four people per room, furnished with two bunk beds, and it's relatively simple.

There were only three people in the room. One of them was calmly lying on the bed looking at the news on his phone, while Chen Sui was chatting with another roommate, Tang Wei, who was also a member of the matrix.

Tang Wei exclaimed, "I thought coming to the island would mean living a completely secluded life, but I didn't expect it to be even more comfortable than home. At home, there are people watching over you, and you have to turn off the lights and go to sleep after midnight. Here, you can play until whatever time you want without anyone bothering you. Yesterday, I asked my cousin to take me to the billiards room, and there were even some experts there."

Most Chinese students are like this; they experience high-pressure learning during middle school, with parents forbidding them from doing this or that.

They forbid early romantic relationships, gaming, and going out for entertainment.

As a result, many students become particularly indulgent and eager to find girlfriends after going to university far from home.

It's like they couldn't find girlfriends before because their parents wouldn't allow it.

Chen Sui glanced at him and said, "Although no one is watching, you still have to attend classes during the day, so you should still be more restrained."

Tang Wei whispered, "Boss, is that top male escort from city number 22 really not you? He looks a lot like you."

Chen Sui's face darkened: "It's definitely not me. Haven't I been in City 7 the whole time? Why would I have time to go to City 22?"

"That's true, but they look so alike, even the names are the same... I heard that a female celebrity paid two million to buy your, no, to buy that gigolo's virginity."

"Don't mention it again!" Chen Sui's expression changed: "I already said it wasn't me."

“There’s another roommate who hasn’t arrived yet. I wonder what kind of person he is. Why hasn’t he come to report for duty this late?” Tang Wei said.

The moment the words were spoken, the dormitory door was pushed open.

Qingchen felt a sense of familiarity when he looked at Chen Sui in the room.

Looking at Chen Sui now, he felt as if he were seeing himself in City 22. How could he not feel a sense of familiarity?

"Hello everyone," Qingchen said with a smile, "You must be my roommates. Let's get to know each other. My name is Chen Nian."

Chen Sui stood up and shook hands: "Hello, Matrix, Chen Sui."

Qing Chen's eyes lit up: "Hey, aren't you that top male escort from City 22? Wow, I'm so happy to see you here. Can you give me an autograph? I heard you've had drinks with the famous actress Qiao Yu!"

Chen Sui: "...That's not me."

"How could it not be? I've seen the photos!" Qingchen said with a chuckle.

"No, it's really not!" Chen Sui exclaimed anxiously.

Qing Chen ignored him and instead looked at Tang Wei on the other side: "Hello."

"My name is Tang Wei."

Qing Chen then looked at his roommate lying on the bed, who glanced at him and said, "Liu Ning from the Red Leaf Organization."

Tang Wei lightened the mood by saying, "I heard that the academy will be divided into houses, just like Hogwarts."

“It’s different,” Chen Sui said calmly. “Hogwarts uses the Sorting Hat to distinguish each person’s personality and character. Here, the Sorting Hat distinguishes between elites and slackers. Elites learn more skills, while slackers learn how to survive.”

Chapter 611, Illusion

"Has anyone explained how the departments are divided?" Qing Chen asked curiously. "How does Kunlun determine whether someone is a good-for-nothing or an elite?"

"I don't know about that," Chen Sui said. "Kunlun Lu Yuan said that the division of academies will not officially begin until everyone has arrived. I feel that it will be in the next day or two."

Qing Chen exclaimed in admiration, "You actually know Lu Yuan? The internet says he's the field operations manager for Kunlun, a big shot."

Chen Sui said nonchalantly, "My Matrix organization is a top-tier time traveler organization in China, so it's normal for us to know Lu Yuan."

At this moment, Hongye Liuning, who was lying on the bed, chuckled softly.

Chen Sui looked over: "Is there a problem?"

Liu Ning turned off her phone: "The Matrix is just sitting in a corner, doing nothing but making money. It doesn't even have a powerful superhuman to keep things in check. How did it suddenly become a first-class time traveler organization?"

In domestic student groups, people have been talking about "Northern Red Leaves" and "Southern Matrix." At first, people were just saying it for fun, but later it became a reality.

In fact, the students are also part of the daytime group.

However, when Red Leaf and Matrix became famous, White Day was still unknown and no one paid any attention to it.

After Bai Zhou suddenly became famous, no one regarded it as a student group anymore; it was now on par with Kunlun and Jiuzhou...

At this moment, Chen Sui said, "Although the Matrix doesn't focus on superhumans, we've already established ourselves in the hacker world of the underworld. As the saying goes, there are 360 professions, and every profession can produce an expert. We might not be any worse than your Red Leaf. Your boss, Jiu Ran, is just a B-level cultivator, and he doesn't seem to be that much stronger."

Liu Ning sneered: "Xiao Ran is a genius cultivator, and she will soon be promoted to A-level? Moreover, you know nothing about her."

"She calls you quite affectionately. As far as I know, she doesn't really pay attention to the members of Hongye's own group," Chen Sui changed the subject. "You should have heard about Bai Zhou's situation. Now, Matrix and Hongye should put aside their past grievances and work together to fight against the pressure from Bai Zhou."

Qing Chen paused for a moment, then placed his backpack on the lower bunk by the door: "You want to fight against the daylight? Why are you fighting against the daylight?"

Chen Sui glanced at Qing Chen: "I only let you hear these conversations because you're my roommate. Remember not to spread them around."

Qing Chen chuckled and said, "How could this get out? Your name is Chen Sui, and mine is Chen Nian. The flowers are similar year after year, but the people are different year after year. We are so destined to be friends, so just believe me."

Chen Sui nodded, and then, in front of the Lord of Daylight, said to Liu Ning, "Daylight seems to have no ambition, but its member Yangyang has been recruiting in the surface world's Haicheng and the corresponding city in the inner world's No. 7. Many people have followed her Daylight name to build some kind of wilderness settlement. My Matrix in Haicheng can't even recruit as many people as she can. This kind of thing is happening to our Matrix now, and it will soon happen to your Red Leaf."

Liu Ning glanced at him: "Join forces with the Matrix to fight against Daylight? We might as well merge into Daylight."

"Pfft," Qing Chen laughed out loud, then seeing Chen Sui's unpleasant expression, he quickly composed himself: "I just remembered a joke, sorry."

At this moment, Liu Ning added insult to injury, picking up his phone and flashing it: "You've all seen the school forum, right? That internet celebrity college student named Ma Jingjing posted about her chance encounter with Boss Bai Zhou on a steam train. She said that Qing Chen's bodyguards are now unfathomable, and entering and leaving the Forbidden Zone No. 10 is as easy as playing around. Can your Matrix do that? What do you have to fight against a time traveler of this caliber?"

Qing Chen had just arrived and was unaware that the Traveler Academy had already set up a forum.

He asked curiously, "How do I download the forum app?"

“Here, scan my QR code,” Liu Ning said.

After downloading and logging in, Qingchen found that 80% of the posts on the forum were from male students posting their profiles and asking for friends, making it seem like a gay forum.

However, this situation should gradually improve over time, once everyone gets over the novelty.

In the forum, everyone can also create their own personal homepage and share information about their inner world and the outer world, or their life status, for a fee or for free.

When he refreshed the forum, he suddenly saw Liu Dezhu, with his verified real-name ID, looking for friends online...

Qing Chen: "..."

Liu Ning said, "Chen Nian, didn't you download this app when you reported for duty? Didn't the college say that it was mandatory to download it because important notices are posted on it?"

Qing Chen smiled and said, "I was in a hurry to report, so I didn't go offline. I had promised to make up for it."

At this moment, he searched for Ma Jingjing and opened her homepage.

However, the other party posted many photos and videos taken on the steam train, including photos of snake vines entwined in the forbidden land of No. 10 and photos of oil-refining fruit.

Then Ma Jingjing added pictures: This is the snake-entwining vine that Qingchen introduced to us, and this is the oil-refining fruit that Qingchen introduced to us...

Each picture also has Ma Jingjing's watermark, inviting everyone to follow his Douyin account, where he will continue to film his daytime journey...

As soon as he posted, countless students immediately paid attention, and Ma Jingjing instantly became a top-notch internet celebrity in the college.
