After the public accepted the setting that they were NPCs, the devil no longer grew, and the rumored murderous demon Lin Xinghe never appeared again.

Instead, the dog-headed monster Lin Xinghe was placed in new housing by the ruler.

The ruler cautiously asked, “Can you not destroy our city? Or is this part of your mission? If it is your mission, we can cooperate with you. I hope you can choose rotten buildings.”

Lin Xinghe said, “It is not necessary.”

Ruler: “What do you mean?”

Lin Xinghe: “There is no need to destroy buildings anymore, our next step is to destroy the devil.”

Outside was an endless night.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the familiar green head drifted aimlessly through the empty, cold streets. It seemed to be searching for something.

It never actively attacked people, much less destroyed any buildings, and acted very much unlike a villain.

Lin Xinghe was still puzzling things out when the ruler asked again, “We are willing to cooperate with you to eliminate the devil, when do you plan to start?”

Lin Xinghe always felt that there was something wrong.

Why did Principal Wang need to borrow Jiuge’s skills?

As the ultimate exam, given Principal Wang’s previous style of asking questions, wasn’t it a bit too strange?

Lin Xinghe knew that this was no longer an ordinary examination room, this was a battle between her and Principal Wang!

She said to the ruler, “There is no hurry.”

The ruler sighed and said, “The devil’s hair is indestructible, we tried to distract it once and destroy its hair, but failed. It is very alert, doesn’t allow any person or object near it, and reacts quickly to external stimuli. I think this should be the exam setting you are talking about, you are as invulnerable to hair as it is …… Perhaps you will know what its weaknesses are, and we can then throw our weight behind you and cooperate.”

Lin Xinghe hummed.

Seeming to think of something, she added, “Find someone for me and have her come over.”

“What’s her name?”

Lin Xinghe: “Yu Ying.”

In less than half an hour, Yu Ying came over.

When she saw the dog-headed monster, there was no fear on her face, on the contrary, there was a bit of excitement, and she batted her eyelashes.

Lin Xinghe asked her, “Have you eaten?”

Yu Ying nodded her head.

Lin Xinghe asked again, “What did you eat?”

Yu Ying said, “I had a seafood buffet for dinner.”

Lin Xinghe asked again, “Do you know who I am?”

Without hesitation, Yu Ying answered, “Master!”

Lin Xinghe laughed lightly as she took back her three-meter tall dog’s head into her portable space, while removing her disguise hat and her makeup along with it, revealing the real Lin Xinghe’s face.

Yu Ying watched from the sidelines, not only without a trace of panic but also more and more happiness.

She said, “I knew you could recognize me, Master!”

Lin Xinghe laughed, “Haven’t you been giving me clues? How could I not recognize you ……” She looked at her carefully, and only after a long time did she say, “Xiran, you have grown a lot.”

The audience had not yet gotten out of the burning atmosphere when they were stunned into silence by Lin Xinghe’s words.

【Crap? What? Is it the Ling Xiran that I imagined?】

【Why would Ling Xiran appear here? Wasn’t she an NPC in a previous examination room!?】

【That’s why I said the SL is great! The villain school’s nature was recognized so early! Ling Xiran must have awakened right from the alpine rimerose examination room! 】

【The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. Only then could you have today’s encounter!】

【Yessssssssss I really did not think that the cold CP could still be shipped!】

【The best thing about it is that it’s so good! The cold master and disciple renewed their previous relationship. Master, before, you let me regain my life, this time I will help you!】

【The master and disciple CP!】

She wrapped her arms around Lin Xinghe and said, “Master, I’m so happy that you praised me so much! I was worried that if I revealed myself, external forces would interfere with Master’s examination, so I never identified myself …… but when I heard Master say that today, I knew there was nothing wrong. I always believed that one day I would meet Master in the world of fiction and help you, so I kept myself hidden and avoided detection by the system ……”

She added with a smile, “After I was recycled at the end of the last world, I found that the system was a little different from before, there were fewer and fewer NPCs, and the system seemed to be a little stuck ……”

Lin Xinghe was slightly stunned and asked, “Why do you say that? Stuck?”

Ling Xiran said, “When we NPCs entered this world, time stopped several times. All of us NPCs could not move, or could only move slowly. I probably remember because I was awakened, but the NPCs around me do not remember …… never encountered in the world before this ever.”

Ling Xiran said: “When I entered this world, I learned that the villain boss and Master had the same name and looked the same. I knew then that I would meet Master. Only, I am an NPC, and I do not know what the exam is, so I have been secretly looking for clues, thinking that when you come in, Master, you don’t have to spend so long finding clues.”

Lin Xinghe had guessed it after Ling Xiran’s mild voyeurism. After all, there was a precedent of Comrade Xiaopu being recycled. Running into former acquaintance NPCs was not impossible, especially NPCs like Yu Ying, who were suspiciously different from the start.

The condition and age of the papers Yu Ying offered differed so obviously that one could tell at a glance that something was off.

But she did not change all the papers to new, deliberately revealing this loophole to tell Lin Xinghe that she is Ling Xiran.

Lin Xinghe didn’t have as much information, and Lin Xinghe was not confident enough to confirm it for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

But now, she boldly announced the truth and this process was not met with any intervention. She was immediately relieved, since it seemed that now, Principal Wang couldn’t assure his own safety. Otherwise, there would have been artificial intervention, like at the end of the last competitive examination. Despite the rules they set for a mandatory end of the competitive examination, the school sent her to this world called the ultimate examination.
