Luo Xi shoveled all the fried rice from his plate into his mouth, gulping it down in a few big bites. Under the stunned gazes of the girls, he didn’t answer any of their questions; instead, he chose to take to his heels and bolt.
Why did he feel like he was getting increasingly skilled at making a run for it…
Damn it, Luo Xi was really pissed off right now. Those two sons of guns from the dorm next door actually ‘teamed up’ with the dorm supervisor Auntie to pull a fast one on him.
Old Sun and Old Zhou, those two guys, were somewhat understandable—one was busy pounding the keyboard, exchanging ‘pleasantries’ with his teammates about each other’s families, and the other was pretending to be dead, lying there until he was dizzy. But why didn’t the dorm supervisor Auntie have any reaction at all?
My dear Auntie, you saw something you normally couldn’t see. Could you at least give me a look of surprise?
Under the cover of night, Luo Xi went to a food stall outside the school and picked out a big white hat to purchase.
Until he figured out how to make this thing on his head disappear, Luo Xi planned on wearing this hat all the time.
Not gonna lie, the hat did look quite dashing on him. Charm +1!
On the way back to campus, Luo Xi saw that there was no one around, and an idea popped into his head.
He tried to smash his fist into the ground.
Bang!
A soft thud.
Luo Xi moved his fist away to see a fine crack appearing in the concrete ground.
He looked at his fist, which was somewhat pale.
Although he had held back quite a bit with this punch, it still felt a lot weaker compared to when he was fighting Black Snake.
It seemed like something was limiting his strength output.
The game text had stated that enhancements and changes to the game character in the Dream world would be equally reflected on his real-life self. Thus Luo Xi’s current surge in strength was obviously a result of changes to his game character.
But this reflected change was not identical; otherwise, the punch just now would have at least left a crater in the concrete.
Moreover, in the Dream world, he could genuinely touch the horn on his head, but in reality, he could only see it and not touch it. Why was that?
He didn’t get it.
What was different about this world he was in from the Dream world in the game?
Luo Xi recalled in detail all those scenes and memories from the game.
The questions he had discussed with Wei’er flashed through his mind one by one.
Sublimation abilities, Mutant Factor, the Eternal World Tree… No, it wasn’t those.
He remembered a term.

The flawless Yuan Su.
That’s right, unlike the Dream world, this world he inhabited didn’t contain a thing called ‘Yuan Su’.
When Luo Xi was controlling his game character in the Dream world, he could clearly perceive an abundance of unidentified energy constantly swirling around him, interacting with his body with every movement.
While exchanging blows with Black Snake, a strange energy surged from his body, intertwined with Black Snake’s energy, creating a peculiar field that froze their actions in place.
This kind of unscientific thing probably didn’t exist in reality; otherwise, there would have been a bunch of people with superpowers by now.
Luo Xi had a hunch.
Although the scarlet Dragon Horn could be projected, because his body didn’t have enough Yuan Su and couldn’t transform into a physical state, it resulted in the awkward situation where he could see it but not touch it.
That made sense.
Perhaps this was also the reason why the Mutation Syndrome he contracted in reality was far milder than in the game.
After all, without Yuan Su, the Mutant Factor related to it likely had very limited effects.
So, did this mean that if he stopped playing “Dawn” from now on, the Mutation Syndrome wouldn’t progress and worsen?
Luo Xi couldn’t be certain.
Nor did he dare to gamble.
He was unsure if this was the first closed beta test of the game. If what the push notification said when he downloaded the game was true, then there were at least a hundred thousand players out there in reality.
Out of over seven billion people worldwide, if the player slots were distributed evenly, there’d be at most around 20,000 players from Xia country.
That small amount of people, scattered across over a thousand counties in the country, wouldn’t make much of a splash.
But what if there was a second or third closed beta?
Or an open beta?
If other people could also gain strength in the game, then the world, as compared to before, would undoubtedly begin to undergo gradual changes.
Luo Xi felt a strong sense of urgency in his heart.
It wasn’t just because of his own issues. Humanity’s uncertainty about the future could make anyone panic and anxious.
Dorm room 408.
When Luo Xi returned, the two postgraduate exam candidates had already come back from the library.
A young man wearing glasses peeked down from the bunk above, chuckling, “Yo yo, long time no see, Luo Xi. I didn’t see you when I came back and thought Old Wang had tricked me.”
“Why would I trick you, his bed’s all made,” Wang Yuanjie replied with a smile, then asked, “Where did you go just now, Little mule? For some reason, the railing on our dorm balcony broke, and I thought you had fallen off and scared me to death.”
“Went to buy something to eat,” Luo Xi said.
“Figured. But why are you wearing a hat?” Wang Yuanjie asked somewhat puzzled.
Luo Xi replied without hesitation, “Because it looks cool.”
“…”
“Since when did you start caring about appearances, eh?”
Chen Yao teased, “After working for three months, you’re not thinking about changing your ways and getting off the singles’ train, are you, Luo Xi?”
Luo Xi responded casually, “Maybe.”
“Ah? Who is it? Is it that Ai Xue from horticulture?”
Chen Yao sat up on the bed, brimming with gossip, “Speaking of which, you really don’t know how blessed you are. If a pretty girl liked me, I would’ve accepted her in a heartbeat. But you, you kept turning her down several times, even went as far as to block her WeChat and phone number.”
“Ah?”
Luo Xi was taken aback for a few seconds.
Then he recalled the Ai Xue that Chen Yao was talking about, a junior he met during a volunteer activity in the second semester of his sophomore year.
Ai Xue was actually quite pretty, with a good figure, but for some inexplicable reason, she became fixated on him.
Heaven and earth as witness, he was just tagging along with the group to pad his volunteer hours for credit, and somehow he caught her interest.
From the end of his sophomore year to the beginning of his senior year, Luo Xi had firmly rejected her overt and covert confessions six times.
The reasons for rejection were always: I’m sorry, you’re not my type.
Or I’m already seeing someone.
Others might not know, but his dorm mates were well aware of the situation.
After a few times, they started wondering if Luo Xi might be into guys. They even went to bed each night clutching their own buttocks, fearing for their safety.
Wouldn’t anyone like a girl who was both pretty and curvy?
Oh, you say you have a girlfriend? Where is she?
With an unchanged expression, Luo Xi declared, “My wives are in anime and games!”
