Heimerdinger quickly recovered and spouted a bunch of official jargon, which could be summarized as:
Understood, mistake acknowledged. This was a personal issue of Herman, and relevant personnel would be dealt with seriously.
Bai Luan: Don't touch Herman.
Bai Luan: I only have two demands right now, make sure they're done.
Bai Luan: Tell me where my dormitory is, I need to attend Professor Ratio's classes.
Bai Luan: All fifty-two courses.
Heimerdinger: Mr. Bai Luan… I need to remind you, Professor Ratio's course completion rate is only 3%… You…
Bai Luan: Do as I say. If I can't understand it, that's my incompetence, you don't need to worry about me.
Heimerdinger: Alright.
Heimerdinger: [Coordinates], this is your residence, a single room. The first time you enter, you'll need to input a password for authentication. After that, you can enter and exit using facial recognition or fingerprints.
Heimerdinger: Please tell me the password you'd like.
Bai Luan: Hmm… 9527.
Heimerdinger: Understood.
Heimerdinger: I apologize for the inconvenience caused earlier. If anything else comes up, please contact me again.
Soon, Bai Luan arrived at his dormitory.
It was less a dormitory and more a small villa. After all, whose dormitory is a two-story detached house with a sizable private yard?
It was clear the treatment was top-notch.
Bai Luan arrived at the door, entered the password, and then a scanning light swept across Bai Luan's face, recording the data.
[Entry Successful]
[Welcome back, Bai Luan]
Bai Luan walked inside. There was a living room, bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, balcony, a small yard, and even a swimming pool on the second floor.
All the daily necessities were already prepared, and they were all unopened.
Looking at the production date, they had just been produced yesterday.
If you told Bai Luan that all dormitories in the university were like this, Bai Luan wouldn't believe it for a second.
Indeed, working for Ms. Herta, aside from the high demands, everything was top-tier.
So, to stay longer, he had to work even harder.
Can the chasm between mortals and geniuses be bridged with infinite time?
I'll just treat myself as a guinea pig for this experiment.
Bai Luan opened his suitcase, took out the few clothes inside, then hung them in the wardrobe, and found a place to put the suitcase.
Alright, check-in complete.
Minimalism.
Then Bai Luan lay on the bed. The bed was spacious enough for Bai Luan to roll around on.
Still not as comfortable as the bed in his little home nest.
First day away from his doghouse, he missed it.
Soon, his phone vibrated twice. Bai Luan picked it up.
It was a message from Heimerdinger.
Heimerdinger: [Image] This is your class schedule. Your information is [Image], your student ID and everything else is on it.
Heimerdinger: [Image] This is the school's daily timetable.
Then followed a barrage of QR code images.
Heimerdinger: These are the class groups you need to join. Please add them as soon as possible.
Heimerdinger: As for the textbooks required for the courses, they will be delivered to you in a while.
Bai Luan quickly scanned the information, understood the general idea, and then joined all the required class groups.
After confirming there were no omissions, Bai Luan replied.
Bai Luan: Noted.
Bai Luan opened the class schedule and began to look through it.
Bai Luan's class schedule only contained Professor Ratio's courses. The fifty-two courses were not offered simultaneously, but in different time slots.
Some were split between the upper and lower semesters, then a few courses in the first eight weeks, and a few in the latter eight weeks.
But no matter what…
Bai Luan looked at the course arrangements on the schedule. Even though he only registered for Professor Ratio's courses, his timetable was not empty at all.
He didn't expect Professor Ratio to be such a workaholic.
It seemed his university life wouldn't be much more comfortable than when he was building Herta Space Station.
Just the exams alone, he had fifty-two to take. The thought was terrifying.
Many years later, Bai Luan recalled the terror of being dominated by school.
But there was no other way. How could he improve himself without studying?
Asking the system for an instant knowledge transfer would at most only earn him the system's disdain.
『That's not how you say it. When you actually try… you'll find I think exactly the same as you.』
See?
Ultimately, it was all due to his previous hosts being so unlikable. Originally, the system would give whatever was asked.
But now, it was like a university professor who leaked exam questions to students only to be backstabbed by them, preferring to do nothing rather than make a mistake.
Classes start tomorrow?
This university life… it's really busy.
He had arrived at First University of Truth after the start of the semester, so he had already missed several weeks of classes and needed to find a way to catch up.
Although Truth Father's courses had a very low completion rate, it was understandable if he couldn't pass.
But Bai Luan wasn't here to fail.
I!
Bai Luan!
Am here to be tested, to hone myself, and to become a genius!
At Ms. Herta's, he had to worry about overdoing it and exposing himself, but here, he could go all out!
From now until graduation, Bai Luan would consider himself a genius!
He would solve problems that were difficult in the eyes of ordinary people, and face challenges that were daunting to ordinary people!
He would push himself to his limits!
If he couldn't even get through these, let alone become a genius!
Completing all of Truth Father's courses would surely improve him!
By then, if not a genius like Ms. Herta, at least he could call himself a genius.
But these things would have to wait until tomorrow.
He didn't even have textbooks yet, so how could he study, no matter how much he wanted to?
Just then, the phone rang. Bai Luan picked it up.
"Delivery? Is it milk tea?"
"Hello, your delivery has arrived. I've placed it… I see you."
He took the milk tea from the delivery person, politely thanked him, and then returned inside.
Looking at the bucket-sized milk tea in his hand, filled to the brim with toppings, Bai Luan smiled helplessly.
They really splurged on this.
Bai Luan inserted the straw into the milk tea. Before drinking, he took a photo and sent it to Mu Zi.
Bai Luan: It's delicious. I forgive your mentor. [Image]
Mu Zi: !
Mu Zi: Thank you!
Seeing the instant reply, Bai Luan's lips curved slightly.
Of course, what Bai Luan didn't know was that his message had sparked a cheer in that laboratory.
All the team members in the entire laboratory (including Herman) were cheering with their arms raised. One might think a major breakthrough had been made in a project.
But in reality, they were just cheering for correctly guessing Bai Luan's favorite milk tea flavor.
Isn't that amusing?
Of course it's amusing.
Aha had been watching them ever since this group of people gathered solemnly, seriously analyzing what flavors Bai Luan might like.
A group of researchers sat upright, with serious expressions, earnestly analyzing which milk tea flavor was the best and engaging in fierce debate. Aha found it utterly hilarious.
This Bai Luan is truly a savior; the show he puts on is genuinely entertaining.
That's a lot of quantity.
Bai Luan threw away the empty milk tea bucket, still chewing on the toppings in his mouth.
His cheeks were so tired…
Such a big cup, and they still crammed so many toppings into it. He could see their sincerity.
Swallowing the last bite, Bai Luan sighed in relief.
Overall, Bai Luan didn't have strong feelings about milk tea. For him, the best drink was Snow King Lemonade.
Bai Luan stood up and stretched a few times.
After drinking milk tea, it's time to get some exercise. He still hadn't checked in with Xiu for his run today.
Originally, he would run to Xiu to check in. Now that Xiu had upgraded and could use a phone, it had changed to online check-ins.
Anyway, with the Anywhere Door, once the textbooks arrived, he could use it to return directly to his room.
He could also familiarize himself with the university campus and find the classrooms where he needed to attend classes.
Humming a cheerful tune, Bai Luan ran out of the house.
