The next day was Wednesday, at 7 o’clock in the morning, everyone got up on time to wash, taking time to the canteen for breakfast. They arrived at the class selection hall of the Faculty of Biological Science on the 4th at half past seven.
Most of the team in the library was still entangled in the Faculty of Architecture on the 3rd floor. The team that went through the entire Faculty of Architecture on Wednesday and got into the 4th floor was the most advanced Research Group.
There were significantly fewer people in the class selection hall, and Yue Xingwen saw several familiar faces.
Including the A-76 Research Group from Kyoto University, the team led by Yu Mingyu; The team of senior brother Qin Lan from Binjiang Normal University, and the team led by Chen Muyun from Beijiang Political Science and Law, and so on.
Jiang Pingce swept his gaze across the room and whispered in Yue Xingwen’s ear, “10 teams, 120 people.”
Yue Xingwen nodded and replied, “That means, the strongest and the fastest progress teams are all here.”
Zhuo Feng took the initiative to come over and greet them, “Mingyu, you guys are also coming to the Faculty of Biological Science today?”
Yu Mingyu replied, “Yes, our team has just been formed, and the progress is the same as yours.”
Since everyone was making the same progress, there was no strategy to refer to each other. They were all taking the examination of the Faculty of Biological Science for the first time, and they could only rely on their own abilities.
Yue Xingwen stepped forward and greeted a few of the familiar students. Senior brother Qin Lan from the Normal University said, “For this morning, the course is about <Genetic Mutation> in the Faculty of Biological Science’s class schedule. We were just discussing that it sounded like a survival class.”
Yue Xingwen walked under the LCD screen and looked up—— The class schedule of the Faculty of Biological Science was arranged at 8:00am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, with the compulsory course <Genetic Mutation>, with 6 credits; On Tuesday and Thursday at 8:00am, there was <Cell Factory> compulsory course, with 4 credits. The afternoons were full of elective courses.
Yue Xingwen asked on the chat channel: “Everyone, how about a day off on Friday after we take <Genetic Mutation> this morning and <Cell Factory> tomorrow morning? I’m afraid we’ll have another Public Elective Course this weekend and everyone will be tired with the consecutive exams.”
Jiang Pingce agreed: “We have morning exams on Wednesday and Thursday, with the break in the afternoon, and then rest one day on Friday. This rhythm is acceptable.”
Zhuo Feng replied: “Agree. Our progress is already the fastest, there’s no need to rush too much.”
Others had also typed ‘agree’ on the chat channel.
Yue Xingwen went to the tablet and pressed the class selection button, and the familiar message popped up on the screen——
[Compulsory Course: Genetic Mutation]

Ke Shaobin nodded seriously: “I understand.”
Yue Xingwen said, “Get ready, I will confirm the course.”
He pressed ‘Confirm Course Selection’ and a system alert sounded in everyone’s ears at the same time: “The C-183 Research Group has successfully selected the Faculty of Biological Science’s course <Genetic Mutation>. The examination will start at 8:00am, please prepare…”
Next to them, the teams from Kyoto University and Binjiang Normal University and other teams also completed the class selection.
Yu Mingyu said loudly, “Cheer up everyone, I hope everyone doesn’t fail the course.”
Qin Lang smiled and said, “I hope to see you here in 2 hours.”
Chen Muyun came over and greeted Yue Xingwen, “Xingwen, please take care of senior sister Lan.”
Yue Xingwen smiled and replied, “You’re too polite, it should be senior sister who takes care of us.”
Lan Yarong walked over and gave a hug to Chen Muyun, “Don’t worry, I won’t be a drag.”
Senior sister Lan was still wearing a light blue dress today, but she changed her high heels into sneakers that were convenient for movement. Her long brown curly hair was tied back, and she looked shorter, just like a middle school student. Everyone would not believe it if she said that she was 25 years old, she obviously looked more like a 15 years old girl.
As promised, Qin Miao and Qin Lu wore one black and one white sports T-shirt to make it easier for everyone to tell who was the older sister and who was the younger sister. Lin Manluo’s long hair was also tied in a ponytail, which looked very neat.
During the examination, even Jiang Pingce, who usually loved to wear leather shoes and shirts, also wore sportswear with Yue Xingwen. It wasn’t known if their clothes would be changed or not this time when they entered the examination room?
A countdown began in the upper right corner and everyone held their breath nervously.
Until the countdown came to ‘1’, the space in front of everyone’s eyes was instantly distorted——
When Yue Xingwen looked around, the teammates who were still by his side just now actually disappeared. He appeared in a strange laboratory, with a white coat on his body and ‘Researcher Yue Xingwen’ written on his left chest.
The room was full of cold instruments, and Yue Xingwen, a liberal arts student, did not know these things. He hurriedly typed on the Research Group’s chat channel: “Everyone, report your location and surrounding environment.”
Ke Shaobin replied: “I should be in an office, there are several computers here.”
Jiang Pingce: “In the laboratory, I find a lot of strange specimens.”
Zhuo Feng said, “I’m with Zhang Xiaonian, and this should be the staff dormitory.”
Qin Miao typed: “My sister and I are also in the dormitory area, in a double room.”
Zhang Xiaonian quickly reported a series of data: “A rectangular room with a floor height of 2.9 meters, a length of 6 meters and a width of 3 meters. The room is in the north, facing south, with a window on the south side, and it’s at around 8:00 am?”
Lin Manluo said, “My dormitory with senior sister Lan is the same as Xiao Nian.”
Yue Xingwen walked to the window and took a look. There was indeed a beam of light shining through, and the clock on the wall showed the time to be 8:00 am. He quickly made the judgment, “Everyone should be in the Institute of Biological Science mentioned in the course description, except, some are in the lab building and some are assigned to the dormitory area.”
Jiang Pingce asked, “Are we doing the additional question or not?”
The exam requirement was to escape the city and go to the Genetic Research Center in the city F next door. The additional question required escorting Professor Tang and the data chip. If they did not do the additional question, they could just run now.
Yue Xingwen took a deep breath and asked: “What does everyone think?”
Jiang Pingce replied: “A 40-point additional question, multiplied by 6 credits and 1.5 times from the Research Group’s bonus, will get 360 points. Let’s try to do it.”
Ke Shaobin agreed: “I also think that we can try, 360 points is very high.”
An additional question with such high points, this task of escorting the NPC was definitely not easy, but it was true that everyone was not too willing to give up directly. Seeing that none of the teammates had any objections, Yue Xingwen made a decisive decision: “Alright, then do the additional question and hurry up to find Professor Tang. Several people in the dormitory area will meet each other first, and don’t run around on this side of the lab building while young Ke comes to us.”
Ke Shaobin summoned his Xiao Tu.
Xiao Tu had a ‘Find a Friend’ skill that could locate the location of teammates when teammates were scattered. He released Xiao Tu and sang ‘Find, find, find a friend’, and lights up his head as radar to detect.
Ke Shaobin’s laptop screen soon showed several small blue dots representing the location of his teammates.
He opened the door and looked all the way over. The closest lab to him was Liu Zhaoqing and senior brother Xu Yishen, further ahead was Yue Xingwen, Jiang Pingce and the innermost lab was Xin Yan. Currently, there were only 6 of them in the lab building.
After the six people met with each other, they looked at each other and found that everyone was wearing the white coats of laboratory researchers, with name tags hanging on their chests, and inside the white coats were the clothes they wore when they entered the examination room.
Yue Xingwen walked over to Jiang Pingce’s side and asked, “Did you find anything in the laboratory just now?”
Jiang Pingce shook his head and said, “It’s all experimental instruments, I don’t recognize them.”
Yue Xingwen looked at Ke Shaobin and asked, “What about the other team members?”
Ke Shaobin explained, “Xiao Tu can’t find the position of other teammates. They must be more than 500 meters away and out of the Xiao Tu’s detection range.”
Yue Xingwen frowned as he looked around, the interior of the building was clean and tidy, a corridor, flanked by laboratories and offices with different functions. Looking down from the window, the floor they were currently on should be on the 3rd floor.
The other teammates were more than 500 meters away from Xiao Tu, indicating that the dormitory area was not in the building.
Yue Xingwen thought for a moment and said: “Everyone in the dormitory area should not rush for now. Senior brother Zhuo will lead the team, after you guys meet, find the exit of the dormitory and I will find the key person, Professor Tang first.”
Zhuo Feng replied: “Understood, you guys be careful.”
At present, nothing had happened, and everyone’s heart was still confused. They did not know what was going on in this course.
Xu Yishen’s expression was relaxed, and he said with a smile, “At least, the building of this Faculty of Biological Science won’t collapse. There’s no time limit for the exam, so we don’t need to panic, let’s take our time.”
Liu Zhaoqing suggested, “Should we search the lab first for clues or something?”
Yue Xingwen also had the same idea and said, “Let’s go, young Ke, copy the information from the office computers first.”
Ke Shaobin’s ‘spawn point’ just now was the westernmost office in the corridor. He took everyone back to the office, turned on the computer, and found that the computer was empty. All the data on the hard drive was gone.
Ke Shaobin was stunned, “This… The computer hard drive was formatted and the data was all wiped out?”
Yue Xingwen hurriedly opened a few computers next to him and found that all the hard drives that held information were empty, except for the drive C that contained the system. He frowned and asked, “Can the data be recovered?”
Ke Shaobin shook his head and replied, “It was handled cleanly and could not be recovered.”
Just as everyone was wondering, Xin Yan suddenly said, “Don’t you guys think this lab building is very strange?”
Jiang Pingce replied lightly, “It’s really strange, it’s empty and unoccupied.”
Xin Yan said, “There are only a few of us in such a large research institute, what about the other employees?”
A chill rose up Yue Xingwen’s spine and he said, “This is an abandoned research institute? Or did something once happen here and the researchers fled collectively?”
Thinking of the first course of the Faculty of Medicine <Escape from the Laboratory>, Liu Zhaoqing’s expression suddenly became serious and said, “This research institute of the Faculty of Biological Science, must be doing genetic related experiments. The computer hard drive had been formatted, it seems that someone didn’t want the experimental data to be found, so they emptied all information in this place.”
Xu Yishen rubbed his chin and said, “The human’s gene sequence has been leaked, tampered with, and mutants appeared. There are just these few keywords in the course’s note. Is this course similar to the setting of <Resident Evil>? Will the existence of mutants impact normal human society?”
While talking, there was a sudden knock on the door outside. Yue Xingwen was stunned, if it was senior brother Zhuo who had led the team over, he would have definitely greeted them on the Research Group’s chat channel first. Who was the person knocking the door?
Jiang Pingce raised his right hand slightly, preparing for the defense, and gave Yue Xingwen a glance.
Yue Xingwen then said, “Please come in.”
A middle-aged man with white hair pushed open the door to the office. His smile was gentle as he swept his gaze over everyone and said, “Are you the people sent by the Genetic Research Center to protect me?”
Everyone looked at each other.
Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses and asked politely, “You are?”
The middle-aged man said, “My name is Tang Ran, and I’m the director of this research institute.”
Yue Xingwen asked tentatively, “Professor Tang?”
The other party nodded and said, “That’s right. Time is running out, let’s go!”
Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other, and they always felt that something was strange—— The additional question asked them to escort Professor Tang, and as a result, before they could find the other party, this Professor Tang took the initiative to find them first?
Hi, I just want to let you know that chp 83 is set in the chp 1 spot.
Love your writing, can’t wait to see how the faculty of biological sciences goes.
It’s very nice of him to come himself. even if he is a monster, but he is a polite monster
Thank you very much for the translation
Well, now all they have to do is run and don’t get killed!
Thanks for the translation ❤
Waaaaaa i love it
