Chapter 54: Ranchi's Artistic Beliefs

In the corridor where the light flickered erratically, three figures stood silently in one place. Their bodies were enveloped by shadows and light, making their images appear even more eerie and sinister. {Novel chapters without errors, google search}
"Level 3 courses are not usually accessible to ordinary students and are only opened under special circumstances, often for specialized course activities or high-difficulty assessments."
But it is rumored that there is a hidden classroom of level 4 difficulty in one of the corridors, although I haven't heard of any living students who have experienced it firsthand...
After listening to Bachelor for a while, Lanchi handed the credit chip in his hand to Bachelor.
Batchelor snatched it up as if he had been handed a get-out-of-jail-free card.
Lanche also caused the mission information from the shadow world to appear in front of him again.
Time remaining: 11 hours 42 minutes
Task Goal 1: Academy Exploration Degree Exceeds 60%, Current Progress 4%
Task Objective 2: Investigate the sources of danger tonight
Task Goal 3: At least 1 person survives until the time limit ends, currently 6/6 survivors.
Challenger Ranch & Huberlian are in Corridor G21 and have not participated in any classes.
Only the "Progress 3%" at the beginning of "[Task Goal 1]" has changed to "Progress 4%".
That means after clearing the Devil's Arena, your success rate increased by 1%.
According to discussions between Lance and Hurley earlier on the road, the six challengers displayed in the Shadow World are most likely divided into three pairs.
Then, the data change explains that entering a demon classroom of difficulty 1 should result in a 1% exploration rate, and clearing it can also increase the exploration rate by 1%.
Similarly, classrooms with difficulty levels 2 and 3 are more likely to achieve a higher exploration rate.
If they have 3 squads and each squad clears 5 Level 1 classrooms within 12 hours, at most they can only obtain 2% × 5 × 3 = 30% exploration degree.
Therefore, they must consider splitting up to tackle multiple Level 1 rooms simultaneously, or attempting Level 2 and 3 rooms to potentially reach the 【Task Objective 1】 of a 60% exploration rate within the 12-hour time limit.
Lance glanced at Huberliane, who nodded in agreement.
She was good at arithmetic and obviously understood how the mechanisms of this shadow world worked.
Then the next strategy became very clear: they were going to challenge as many high-difficulty classrooms as possible, and in the process investigate what "the potential threats within the Devil's Academy tonight" referred to in [Mission Objective 2].
Bachelor, have you heard of any recent changes at the academy Or is there anything tonight that frightens you as a potential danger
>"..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Barcel watched Lance, silent for a long time unable to speak.
He didn't understand what "ranch" meant, nor did he know of anything more dangerous than a ranch tonight.
"Okay."
Rance nodded helplessly. It seemed that a student like Bachelor still had limited information, and obviously didn't know the school's hidden secrets. As for [Task Objective 2], he would have to ask senior staff members such as teachers or even the principal.
It's a pity that I can't ask those two examiners in the examination room.
However, no matter what, Ranch was confident that his progress was ahead of schedule.
>Because if he waited until after the exam, it would be over an hour before he could find out about these rules and regulations, and he might not encounter a classmate as friendly and forthcoming as Batcher, who was willing to give him all the information.
From now on, I'm going to study hard. I have to keep learning or I won't survive!
Compared to the classes at Icterus Academy that made him want to run away, Lance honestly said he didn't dislike learning at this extraordinary magical academy, even a little bit!
"……," Hubertian said.
She felt that Lance seemed eager to get to the next classroom.
Ranch, who I saw in the Wise Men's Hall classroom today, was completely unlike his usual eager-to-learn self...
Hubley is worried that Lance, after studying at this school, will awaken some irredeemable nature... becoming more and more inhuman.
But she didn't know what to say, after all, she wasn't an individual either.
Just as Huberly was thinking this,
"Bachler, there's an old saying in my hometown: 'A wise person knows the right time to act.' I believe you wouldn't refuse to cooperate with us, would you"
Ranch patted Bachelor on the shoulder as he spoke.
Well, that's natural.
"Well done, we won't let you down. Please take me to an art class."
Lance needs an honest and clever demon to guide him, which would save a lot of time.
This way, please.
Bachelor immediately, like a waiter, instinctively extended his left hand with graceful aristocratic courtesy, and began to lead the two of them.
Although the school's intricate and ever-changing corridor structure makes a fixed map impossible, as a Bachelor with survival instincts maxed out, Bartholomew naturally knows what most classrooms on the corridors are.
Lanche and Huberlian followed Bachelor swiftly through the corridor.
Their steps were steady and swift.
A few minutes later, a wide gate appeared before them, standing like a silent giant barring the secrets within.
Batchelor stopped and turned to face Lanch.
"It is said that behind this door is a music classroom, which is also the most recent art-related classroom at present. If you're not satisfied, I'll take you to find other ones."
Lanche's gaze followed Bachelor's gesture to the artistically designed door. Two peculiar demonic markings were etched onto it, clearly indicating a difficulty level of 2.
Then, Lance nodded, seemingly satisfied with the classroom.
He reached out and placed his palm on the ancient, solid door. "This is it."
Keep looking and I don't know how much time will be wasted.
"Really, really want to challenge the classroom of Difficulty 2"
Baruchel clearly had never been in this kind of classroom before, and he looked at Lynch with some apprehension.
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of art assignments."
After finishing his words, Lance confidently pushed open the door.
The moment he stepped into the classroom the next second, the scene inside rushed into his eyes. Compared to the giant auditorium-like classroom, this place was more like a spacious grand theater! Ornate decorations, red velvet seats, and a majestic stage—everything exuded luxury and nobility.
On stage, a student is engrossed in playing music, their movements coordinated and full of passion. The sound echoes through the large classroom like waves.
At the edge of the stage, a formally dressed teacher could be vaguely seen. Like the manager of the entire classroom, he stood by the curtain and immediately spotted Lanchi and his three companions upon their arrival. He raised his hand to signal them to the back row seats, his gesture radiating nothing but impeccable authority.
Lanch nodded and they slowly made their way up the stairs to the top of the classroom, finally getting a better view of the entire theater classroom.
In addition to the demon students who watched the performance like audience members from the bleachers in the back, four demon teachers sat on four large chairs facing the stage, listening to the student's musical performance as if they were judges.
Rance gazed at this bizarre structure, though he didn't know the rules of this classroom yet, a strange sense of familiarity filled his heart.
"Huh A demon with a good voice!"
Lanche feels this classroom is a bit out of this world!
