CHAPTER 198: CHAPTER 162: DOUBLE UPGRADE! (THREE IN ONE, 5/5)_4

"Location, huh?"

Liu Yiyi looked at the rows of houses below.

"It feels like everywhere is pretty much the same. It’s probably best to live near the Academy Alliance; that would be safer."

"That’s what I was thinking too."

"But I heard that houses near there are very expensive. The closer you get, the more expensive they become."

"No problem, I’ll earn enough for it soon."

"Mo, you said you spent money on yourself, but I don’t see any change in your equipment?"

"Actually, I’ve hidden them. After all, one shouldn’t flaunt their wealth; it’s better to be cautious."

Hearing this, Liu Yiyi nodded, thinking it made sense.

Back home, Chen Mo spoke to Liu Yiyi about her quitting work.

"Sister Yiyi, you don’t have to go to work anymore. Just tidy up whatever needs packing at home, and we can move as soon as we find a suitable house."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Liu Yiyi smiled and patted Chen Mo’s head, then put on her apron, ready to start working.

More than ten days had passed since Chen Mo last cleaned the room, and it was now a bit dusty again.

Even though they might not live here much longer, it was a place they had lived in for a long time. They wanted to leave it clean, even when they moved.

If Chen Mo’s parents had considered buying a house for him back then, he would at least have a decent place to live now.

But their thinking had been very similar to Chen Mo’s current idea: they had wanted to buy a house near the Academy Alliance outright, so they had rented one in the meantime.

As a result, they unexpectedly met with disaster in a dungeon they had been very confident about, leaving Chen Mo with nothing.

The two of them worked together to clean the house thoroughly again. After dinner, they both rested.

The college entrance exam was the day after tomorrow.

Liu Yiyi urged Chen Mo to rest well these next few days and conserve his Spirit.

Early the next morning, Liu Yiyi went to work again.

Although she had submitted her resignation to her previous employer, Liu Yiyi was responsible. She couldn’t just up and leave, so she’d agreed to stay until they found a new Gardener.

Chen Mo didn’t say much about it.

Chen Mo spent the day mainly focusing on matters related to the college entrance exam. He also searched online about the Alien assassination.

Chen Mo figured that since the Aliens had launched an assassination, they likely wouldn’t stop at just one.

However, his searches only turned up the assassination of Yan Yingyue.

This gave Chen Mo an inexplicable sense of oppression, like the calm before a storm.

These Aliens carried out only one assassination and then went completely silent. What are they planning?

Could they be waiting to strike after the college entrance exam results are announced?

Chen Mo’s pupils contracted.

This college entrance exam might be the most scrutinized one in history!

Even I can see how strange the Aliens’ actions are; the higher-ups in the Academy Alliance couldn’t possibly have missed it. The Aliens aren’t fools either; they must realize their intentions have likely been exposed. So, will they still proceed with their plans as scheduled? Do they have the confidence to execute such a blatant scheme?

Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel a surge of curiosity.

He really wanted to know what devious plan the Aliens were hatching.

Should I give them another jolt?

Chen Mo opened the Realm Breakthrough Assessment in the Heavenly Path System.

He initiated a simulation for passing the SSS-level Assessment.

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Simulation calculation complete!]

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Simulation result... You successfully passed the assessment 100 times.]

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Failed simulation attempts this time: 0. Deaths therein: 0.]

The results were incredibly encouraging!

No way! The success rate is actually 100%!?

Chen Mo had never anticipated such a high success rate.

This means he’s practically guaranteed to pass the Level 15 SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessment. Doesn’t that also mean an SSS-level reward is already his for the taking? However, it also means he’s certain to trigger the sound of the great path again. Triggering the sound of the great path this time will be different from the previous two. The first two times, people might have dismissed it as partly coincidental. But while a coincidence can happen once, it’s highly unlikely to repeat! Level 5, Level 10, and now Level 15—if the sound of the great path resonates three consecutive times, even an absolute fool would immediately connect these three occurrences.
