Chapter 5

Upon hearing Haplos’ sigh, the headmaster, who had been chiming in with him, finally reacted. He sighed repeatedly.

“If he can awaken before the assessment, he will definitely be able to pass this assessment.”

“What a pity!”

This time’s college entrance exam was an A-class difficulty. Just the passing line alone required killing 1000 monsters. The lowest level mutated longhorn beetle was already difficult enough for him.

Then, how would he be able to kill those high-level or even elite-level monsters in the later stages? It must be known that not only did these monsters have an increase in defense, but their attack power and agility were also not something that these low-level monsters could compare to.

If he was unlucky, he might even encounter super elite monsters.

At that time, with only these low level skills, Fran would have already disappeared into thin air before even getting close to those monsters.

The headmaster of Olly College, where Fran was studying, Baidiro, was watching from the side. After seeing the undisguised admiration on Haplos’ face, he hesitated for a moment before looking at Vera.

“Lady Vera, is Lord Haplos interested in this student from my academy?”

If this Lord really took a fancy to this brat, then it wasn’t impossible for him to use some special means to protect him. Although the rules clearly stated that one could not interfere with the college entrance examination, after so many years, as the headmaster, he naturally knew about some of the loopholes.

Although it would be a pity to use this opportunity on an unawakened person, if he could use this opportunity to build a relationship with this person…

Baidiro lowered his eyes, hiding the light in his eyes.

“So it’s the headmaster of Olly Academy.”

However, she knew what he was thinking at a glance. In response, Vera only smiled.

“I’m not too sure what the Lord is thinking.”

“But…”

Baidiro frowned and seemed to be a little unhappy. Before he could say anything, he heard Haplos calling for someone.

Seeing this, Vera nodded apologetically and turned around to walk towards Haplos.

Baidiro’s expression was naturally not good after being rejected in public. However, the habit of many years made Baidiro endure it, but he cursed in his heart.

A fox exploiting a tiger’s might! Wasn’t it all because of this Lord’s favor? She actually dared to show off her might in front of him! When he entered this Lord’s eyes, he would definitely not spare her!

Naturally, Vera did not care about what he thought. When she arrived beside Haplos, she respectfully said, “My Lord, do you want me to bring him out?”

“Not for now.”

At this moment, however, Haplos’ interest was piqued.

“I’d like to see how long this kid can last in this instance dungeon.”

With Haplos’ words, Vera naturally would not do anything unnecessary.

However, as more and more candidates entered, the screen outside naturally wouldn’t just focus on Fran, but rather the perspectives of the other candidates.

If it had been played like this at the beginning, the students watching from the outside would naturally not have had any objections.

But when they saw Fran kill a mutated longhorn beetle on his own, they looked at the other candidates and felt that they had lost interest.

“I say, don’t you guys think that Fran is more interesting than these people?”

“Oh my God, you think so too? I thought I was the only one who thought this way. I would be embarrassed to mention it if none of you mentioned it first!”

“Me too, me too. I was just saying that it’s boring to just stare at him, but now I’m saying, damn it, it’s so much fun to watch!”

As the first voice rang out, more and more students began to boo and say that they wanted to see Fran.

When Vera received the notice from her subordinates, she suddenly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“My Lord, it seems that the person you have taken a fancy to is surprisingly popular.”

Naturally, Haplos had also sensed the commotion among his students.

After knowing that they all wanted to see Fran, they agreed to cut the camera to him after some hesitation.

Then, he looked at Fran inside the dungeon.

Fran himself didn’t know how much of a stir his actions had caused.

After dealing with the mutated longhorn beetle, Fran took a short break before looking for his next target.

Killing a thousand monsters wasn’t an easy task for Fran. However, if he was careful, it was not that difficult.

After taking care of the slimes in front of him, Fran didn’t choose to attack again. Instead, he used the terrain around him to hide his tracks.

The speed of killing them one by one was too slow.

Fran frowned, his eyes carefully observing the surroundings while searching for a suitable group of monsters.

There was a time limit for the college entrance examination, and there were very few monsters like slimes that had no attack power. Relying on them alone, it was simply impossible to reach that number.

Since he was taking the college entrance exam, he had to work hard for his future.

Thinking of the situation he was facing, Fran took a deep breath and started searching even more carefully.

Through the lush leaves, Fran quickly found his target.

It was a pack of intermediate storm wolves. A rough estimate put them at around 200.

This pack of storm wolves was only at the intermediate level and their attack power was not too strong, so it could be killed by a mage. But different from the mutated longhorn beetle Fran had just killed, the storm wolves were known for their unity.

Although the intermediate storm wolf’s speed was not as fast as an assassin’s, after a hundred years of evolution, the storm wolf had also learned the importance of teamwork.

If you encounter a storm wolf alone, you’d better turn around and run. This was because there might be hundreds of wolves waiting for you behind this storm wolf.

While Fran was carefully observing, the spectating students were also in an uproar.

“Oh my God! It was actually the storm wolves! He can’t be thinking of going for a one-on-one fight, right?”

“Even a team wouldn’t dare to rush up rashly when they encounter this pack of wolves. I’m afraid this kid has gone crazy!”

“He’s just grandstanding. I thought he really had some ability. It seems like he’s just looking for death.”

Not to mention the students, even the principal, who was watching from the side, was not optimistic about it.

“This child is still too eager for quick success. There are so many storm wolves. How could he possibly defeat them all by himself?”

Despite so many doubts, Haplos was still staring at Fran, not letting any of his movements escape his eyes.

His strength was decent, but he had been doing things that ordinary people thought were stupid. Did he really have the ability, or was he really just trying to please the crowd like what others said?

For some reason, Haplos was leaning towards the former. He had a feeling that this kid definitely had a way to kill the wolf pack.

Fran didn’t know that his every move was being displayed on the big screen. He was carefully observing the terrain, thinking about how to deal with the wolf pack.
