Chapter 63 - 463 A Hint from the Dragon Kingdom: A Crisis of National Fortune

Oh? Su Chen did well last night?"

"Not just well, he was absolutely phenomenal! Listen to me..."

The older woman excitedly recounted the events she had imagined Su Chen to accomplish.

"How about that? Were you surprised?"

the older woman asked happily.

A silvery laugh came from the other end of the phone.

"Hehe, I knew my eye for men was spot on! How could anyone I've got my eye on be a loser?"

Hearing this, the older woman's face showed some displeasure.

"Hey, Inanna! I need to remind you, everything must be done according to plan. Don't mess around and ruin the plan! Otherwise, the principal won't forgive you!"

"I know, don't worry, as long as Su Chen is a man, he'll definitely help me wholeheartedly." "

I heard a saying from your great-uncle before: 'Those who are good at swimming drown, those who are good at riding fall.' I think it makes a lot of sense. Even if you're good at manipulating men, it doesn't mean you'll never mess things up. You'd better be careful."

"Okay..."

Inanna replied with a light laugh.

On the other side, Su Chen went straight to the classroom.

He slumped onto the table, ready to take a nap.

The reason he didn't sleep in the dorm was simply because he was afraid of oversleeping.

The school rules clearly stated:

"All the knowledge the school teaches you is extremely important, so please do not ask for leave, do not be late or leave early, and do not skip class. This will displease your homeroom teacher."

If he fell asleep on his dorm bed, given his tendency to have trouble getting up,

he was guaranteed to oversleep.

Although Su Chen knew that Inanna was currently very interested in him and wouldn't do anything to him just because he was late, it

still wasn't ideal.

Su Chen's current goal was to rapidly increase Inanna's favorability,

hoping to uncover the secrets of this instance from her.

Next, Su Chen sent an instruction to the paper dolls,

telling them to wake up Babu and the others at 7:30

to prevent them from oversleeping.

Then he slumped down, closed his eyes, and prepared to fall into a deep sleep.

But just then

, a message box popped up in front of him.

At the same time, a string of message notification sounds rang out.

Long Guo proactively used his communication privileges for the day to send Su Chen a message.

"Su Chen, don't sleep. Sleeping too much will make your head foggy."

"Also, regarding the stone tablet with the school rules carved yesterday, after comparison, we've been able to distinguish the original rules from the later carvings."

"Besides that, there are some interesting things that happened on Blue Star last night that I'd like to share with you."

"Perfect for waking you up."

Old Qin sent Su Chen several messages in a row.

Su Chen opened his eyes, looking at the messages before him, his brows gradually furrowing.

Why was Old Qin's tone so strange today?

Why didn't he just give a conclusion directly, but instead specifically said not to sleep!

And what was this about waking him up?

Looking at these words, Su Chen gradually understood the old man's intention.

Something must have happened on Blue Star, and the Supreme Rules were involved.

That's why he was prompting him in this way.

Having figured this out, Su Chen gave a thumbs-up on the live stream to indicate that he understood.

Then, he naturally started chatting with Elder Qin.

"What are the results of the analysis?"

Su Chen didn't directly ask about the "interesting things" on Blue Star.

Instead, he first inquired about the research results regarding the rules.

"Based on the rule numbers you wrote down, rules three, eleven, fourteen, and sixteen were all added later."

"The first half of rule four is the original rule, but the second half, 'Believe me, you wouldn't want to experience that kind of punishment, so for your own sake, please do whatever it takes to achieve excellent exam results,' was added later."

"The same applies to rule eight; the second half, 'Remember, the homeroom teacher is standing at the back door window, and your every move is under their watchful eye,' was also added later." "

In addition, the attachment below contains some expert analysis and a translation table between Common Language and Dragon Language provided by a language expert."

"By the way, according to the language expert, this table is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate; you should use it with caution." "

(Attachment Contents)"

Su Chen nodded and pointed in the air in front of him.

The attachment instantly unfolded and appeared before him.

After glancing at the general content, Su Chen immediately took out paper and pen, activating multitasking.

He used his second mind to record useful information.

Meanwhile, his main consciousness continued its conversation with Elder Qin.

"By the way, you mentioned something interesting happened on Blue Star yesterday? What happened?"

Su Chen asked, feigning curiosity.

"Oh dear, look at my memory, I almost forgot about it. It's like this, yesterday netizens from the Ugly Country and our Dragon Country got into an argument, and it got a bit heated, dragging the Supreme Rules into it."

"And then the interesting thing happened, the Ugly Country had 10 points of national fortune deducted from its national fortune by the Supreme Rules."

Upon seeing this news, Su Chen's heart tightened.

He instantly recalled the bizarre punishment the Supreme Rules had imposed on the Daiying Country when Frank died last night.

[Daiying Country, having exhausted all other punishments, has an additional 10 points of national fortune deducted, currently retaining 30 points.]

Could there be a connection between these two?

Su Chen had this thought.

After pondering for a few seconds, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He keenly sensed the strangeness of the situation.

Why did the Supreme Rules suddenly start targeting national fortune?

Could there be a deeper secret behind national fortune?

Next, Su Chen immediately feigned excitement and

continued messaging Elder Qin.

"This is interesting! It's truly gratifying! By the way, I have an idea. Since arguing deducts points from the Ugly Kingdom's national fortune, why don't we just keep arguing with them? That way, it won't take many times before they're reduced to zero and collapse!"

Su Chen offered Elder Qin a way out, signaling him to provide more information about Blue Star.

"That won't do. We also had 5 points of national fortune deducted yesterday. Although it's not much compared to our total national fortune, we can't waste it."

Elder Qin took the opportunity to explain the Supreme Rules' punishment of the Dragon Kingdom.

Su Chen's heart tightened again.

Something was wrong.

The Supreme Rules were too deliberate.

So he prepared to ask Elder Qin and the others what their opinion was on this matter.

"Actually, it's alright. I think the Supreme Rules are quite biased towards our Dragon Kingdom. Look, they deducted 10 points from the Ugly Kingdom, but only 5 from us. I guess the Supreme Rules did this specifically to prevent other countries from gossiping."

"What you said makes some sense. And I think the Supreme Rules' punishment of deducting national fortune is really brilliant. Look, our Dragon Kingdom has high national fortune and isn't afraid of being deducted, but the Ugly Kingdom is different. Their national fortune is so low. If this happens a few more times, once their national fortune reaches zero, they'll likely collapse, and if something unexpected happens, it might be even worse!"

Old Qin subtly expressed their concerns.

A national fortune reaching zero inevitably brings a great calamity.
