Super God-Level Top Student

Ben Ronny recently had been feeling so unlucky he could have kicked a dog. He even started to regret his choices before coming to Xilin University of Technology.

It was two years ago when he had just received his acceptance to study abroad at Xilin University of Technology. People from Langley had come knocking at his door, asking if he was willing to make some money while studying abroad.

All he needed to do was undergo two months of training before heading to Huaxia and sign a few contracts. Then he would receive a $20,000 scholarship every year. Ben Ronny thought it was an offer no one could refuse.

Most importantly, the person who recruited him had promised that there would be no dangerous tasks assigned to such a rookie. At most, he would just need to write a report each year as per the requirements, detailing what he saw and learned on campus, and that would be enough.

So Ben Ronny happily attended all kinds of courses for two months and, after signing a pile of documents, indeed found his account $20,000 richer before heading to Huaxia. He was truly delighted.

His two-year graduate student life in Huaxia was just as his recruiter had said: no special tasks were given to him.

He never once used the codebook that he had brought for reference, and his $20,000 stipend never came short, always deposited into his account on time. With this money, his life as an international student was far more comfortable than that of other poor students.

Even last year, he used what he learned during those two months of training to stir up discontent among many students when the university suddenly changed its policies, leading to an action for rights.

Although the movement didn't achieve the expected results, although he had stirred up emotions, he didn't participate in it, perfectly concealing himself.

As a result, many were expelled and deported by the university, but he emerged unscathed.

Indeed, all knowledge is useful. For example, how to manipulate others' emotions to achieve one's own goals, while avoiding all risks.

Wasn't it just exhilarating?

Whenever he thought about those fools being exploited without realizing it, even considering him a close friend after he echoed a few complaints about the university, it gave Ben Ronny a sense of intellectual superiority.

Each of us is an international student from the same university. It's only natural for such brainless ones to be expelled.

Ben Ronny even thought the university was too lenient; they should have expelled everyone who attended the gathering.

With fewer people, the insufficient resources would be averaged out, and he could enjoy even more.

Moreover, with these people gone, there might be less competition after he graduated, a true win-win situation.

But what happened last month had made Ben Ronny start to become alert.

A bunch of people has disappeared from the school.

Including the International Students Institute, several familiar faces suddenly vanished. Quietly, without a word, the university didn't even provide a reason. But he had a wide network of friends and soon heard that several cars had arrived that day and took people away directly.

Although the classmates who knew the inside story only happened to see this scene and described it vaguely, Ben Ronny still felt that the situation might be getting out of control. So he became more cautious recently.

The only thing that comforted him was that, when he signed the contracts, the other party had promised that only the headquarters knew his information.

So others being caught shouldn't implicate him, right?

Indeed, large organizations do keep their promises.

More than a month had passed, and nobody had contacted him, which gradually eased Ben Ronny's mind.

However, he had made up his mind, he would graduate at the latest by next year.

After graduation, he would return to his country, and the agreement he signed would also officially end.

Although he took some risks, at least he had earned an extra $60,000, so it was still a win.

But what he never expected, just as he was about to coast through his student life, was receiving a call mentioning a code phrase.

"Hey, bro, we had such a blast on our family vacation to Las Vegas! Everyone loved the seafood at The Buffet at Bellagio!"

MMP!

That was the code phrase he had agreed upon.

His dad was allergic to seafood and couldn't eat it at all.

This meant his task had arrived.

And at such a tense moment.

Truly, upon hearing this sentence, Ben Ronny felt murderous.

Didn't those people know that a bunch of students had just been taken away last month?

Giving him a task now, anyone could see that it was sending him to his death.

But that wasn't all. When he picked up the bestselling novel "The Sound and the Fury," a book that had been gathering dust for two years, and compared it the way he remembered, he became even more desperate upon figuring out the message the other party was conveying.

Had those people gone mad?

They actually wanted him to try everything possible to get close to Qiao Ze and find information about the material model?!

Are you kidding me?

An insignificant shrimp like him doing such a thing?

Ben Ronny immediately chose to refuse without a second thought.

There was no way he could complete such a task.

Those people had been in the country for too long, completely out of touch with the current situation in Huaxia.

Given the omnipresent surveillance cameras on campus, Ben Ronny felt that if he, a prominent white-faced foreigner, made an unusual appearance within a one-kilometer radius of the Xilin Mathematics Research Institute, he'd be closely monitored. Let alone getting close to Qiao Ze and obtaining material models.

But soon more messages came through, which translated to: Darling, if you do not want to finish your prison term in Huaxia, be deported, and then continue to face justice back in the United States, you better start thinking seriously about how to complete the task from now on.
