An Impossible Coincidence

About ten minutes later, the bus left the downtown area of Linyue City and arrived at a place called Shouyan Town.

The people living in this small town were not ordinary residents, but the City Defense Army and the Class-Holders Guild who were responsible for guarding the Catacombs.

The small town did not occupy a large area, and there were only a dozen houses for people to live in.

Most of the remaining space was rented to merchants who collected equipment and materials.

As soon as the group entered Shouyan Town, they were immediately shocked by the mature professional industries around them.

There were shops that specialized in selling equipment for various professions, as well as pharmaceutical shops, employment shops, and other places that served Class-holders.

The entire town was made up of four main roads. Other than the residential area on the upper right, the rest of the place was highly commercial. On the contrary, the daily market and grocery stores could not be seen.

However, what attracted everyone's attention the most was the end of the main road in the middle of Shouyan Town.

The road there was wide, and there were many shops on both sides. There were also many Classes looking to form a team.

The end of the road was not the exit of the town. Instead, it was occupied by a special building with black gothic walls.

The doors and windows of the building were tightly shut, and there were a few soldiers in standard armor guarding the door.

The door was wide open, and a mysterious light was constantly emitted. Even the surrounding space was slightly distorted.

It was as if there was another world behind the door!

"We've arrived at Frost Cave. Get off the bus."

While Lin Xiu was observing, a teacher sitting in the front passenger seat of the bus immediately spoke.

Many students filed out and gathered in an empty space not far from the mysterious door.

The sudden appearance of the crowd attracted the attention of many Classes and shop owners.

However, when everyone realized that those people were all wearing school uniforms, they immediately showed a lack of interest, as if they were already used to it.

"Next, all the students will be split into groups of three to explore the Catacombs together. We will also arrange for six teaching assistants to accompany you. If anyone's life is really in danger, they will be the first to rescue you."

As the head of the grade, Jin Zhengmin came to the crowd to speak. His voice was steady and powerful, and his expression was very serious.

"As for the allocation of teams, for the sake of fairness, we'll decide by drawing lots."

With that, Jin Zhengmin turned his wrist, and a white light immediately flashed in front of him. Then, everyone saw a wooden drawing tube appear in his hand.

He shook the drawing tube lightly and immediately arranged for the teaching assistant to distribute all the wooden lots to the students.

There were a total of 63 bamboo sticks in the bamboo tube, each with 21 numbers engraved on it. However, the ends of the bamboo sticks were dyed in three colors. Students who drew the same number would form a team to enter the Catacombs.

As the bamboo sticks were distributed, many students had finished assigning teammates.

They seemed to have become small groups, discussing the battle strategy after entering the Catacombs.

Originally, Lin Xiu did not feel that there was anything wrong with this drawing method.

However, not long after, when Wan Zhuoyun and Ding Shiyu, who were sitting in the front row, drew the blue and red bamboo lot with the number 7 at the same time, he immediately had a bad feeling.

The subsequent developments were just as he had expected. When a young teaching assistant took out a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube and handed it to him, Lin Xiu saw that the end of the bamboo stick was engraved with the green number 7!

Looking at the bamboo stick in his hand, a trace of an inexplicable smile immediately surfaced on Lin Xiu's face.

"It's a 1 in 9,000 chance. Maybe I should go home and buy the lottery."

Laughing at himself, Lin Xiu immediately raised his head to look at the two people not far away.

Coincidentally, when he saw the other party, the two of them also threw him a meaningful look.

"Hah, you're not even acting anymore, right?"

"Since you've gone to great lengths to arrange me into your team, how can I let you down?"

Lin Xiu grinned. Not only was he not the least bit afraid in his heart, but he even became somewhat excited.

How were they enemies? They were clearly two Gods of Fortune.

He had been troubled by the fact that he had spent most of his living expenses on the skill books.

However, now, after knowing that he was in the same team as Ding Shiyu and Wan Zhuoyun, this thought was immediately thrown to the back of his mind.

With his powerful Unspecialized Class in the early stages, coupled with the attribute bonuses of the Boots of Hermes, it was not a problem for him to deal with two Classes of the same level.

Moreover, the other party was trying so hard to find an opportunity to attack him. If Lin Xiu still did not make a move, wouldn't he really be treated as a soft persimmon to be pinched?!

Thinking of this, Lin Xiu already made up his mind.

When they ventured into the Catacombs later, he had to use some methods to give the two of them some unforgettable memories!

"Cough cough… It seems that you guys are getting along very well. Continue to maintain this state. We'll set off immediately!"

Jin Zhengmin how happy the surrounding groups were and naturally ignored some of the unfriendly scenes.

He led the group of students to the front of the gothic-style building. First, he bowed to the two soldiers guarding the Catacombs. Then, he immediately took out a scroll with an ancient yellow appearance.

He opened the scroll and poured his spiritual power into it.

In just a few breaths, the scroll burst out with a dazzling light. A mysterious power surged and immediately tore open a crack in the distorted space in front of him!

Deep purple light kept pouring out of the crack, and they could vaguely hear some roars. In just a few seconds, they smelled a stench of blood. For a moment, the female students subconsciously covered their noses and took a few steps back with furrowed brows.

Compared to their beautiful appearances and fair skin, the Frost Cave was like a barren land full of evil. The two were in stark contrast.

Just by tearing a corner, Lin Xiu sensed the danger and cruelty of death seeping out of the Catacombs. He immediately became extremely alert.

"Don't be afraid. The monsters in the Frost Cave are all below level 8. As long as we don't go too deep, everyone's safety will be guaranteed," Jin Zhengmin said with a normal expression, then began to urge them.

The few teaching assistants did not hesitate and walked through the crack first.

The students at the front of the line also followed suit and mustered up their courage to enter.

With someone in front leading the way, the nervousness and fear in the hearts of the others were greatly reduced. In a short while, the 63 students entered the Frost Cave together.

The remaining teachers immediately moved a few tables and chairs from the bus and let the Principal and the Secretary rest first.

"Ha…"

Seeing that the crack was slowly recovering, Jin Zhengmin immediately let out a low growl. His body continuously emitted dense spiritual power. The spiritual power slowly floated up and finally condensed into a dozen washbasin-sized bubbles above his head.
