Phyllida turned towards the crowd "I would hate to further waste our time." She turned towards the crowds and with a beautiful smile that seem to light up the surrounding tense atmosphere.

"I am very confident in my ability to proclaim the first position in this competition but it would be very difficult for me to do that alone." Phyllida sighed sadly.

"Therefore I require the help of my fellow students and do not worry, after this event is a success, and I become an intern of a senior professor, I won't forget those who helped me." She pledged with a solemn expression.

But contrary to ones expectations, several students burst into a mocking laughter as they murmured. While some took their leave to select the houses they wished to stay before anyone else took it.

Some had even left a while ago since there were still some gadgets secretly well hidden at different houses present in the safe zone.

"What gives her the confidence in securing the first position." Someone mocked loudly.

"Beats me. I doubt she would secure the 10th place even if she had the support of 10% of all the students, she still cannot guarantee a position in the top 10 with her strength."

"As though you read my mind. With the amount of strange students popping up one after the other." Another agreed while stealing glances at Aella and some other unfamiliar youths in the environmental.

Such discussions took place, and noise filled the atmosphere, almost drowning Phyllida's voice with its noise.

Phyllida's eyes flashed with a weird light as she contemplated. Suddenly, she reached for her backpack, after which she brought out an overall suit from deep within.

While several other students gasped at her boldness and in greed, majority of the students were confused as they didn't know how the hell an ordinary clothing was involved in this conversation.

Phyllida only said two words and the entire safe zone boiled with shock and killing intent.

"Combat Suit."

Boom!

David suddenly halted his step when he realised he was very close to the location te compass was pointing at.

The compass was a Gadget of the treasure seeking series. But it was of the low quality ad it can only be activated three times a day.

And most of the time, te gadget usually isn't very accurate and it tends to read treasures entirely different from what it had been program to do and directs the user to the location only to realise that it was something useless

Several curses had left David's mouth in the past three hours. The direction he had chosen previously was smooth sailing he didn't meet any evolved monster worth a fight.

But the ending had been very painful. The treasure the compass had lead him to was buried in the soil.

 At first, David had been sceptical as the supply boxes of the institute was usually stationed in open. Free-for-all, unrestricted.

But David shrugged after a few seconds of thinking.

He spent another 10 minutes digging the ground as he refused to use his Earth Swim ability since it consumes too much of his energy and stamina.

Digging was a lot better although time consuming, he would at least save more than 90% of his energy.

At that time, David had been incredibly happy when the bone he was using to dig her hit something.

Excitedly, he had even thrown the bone away to using his hands to drag apart te sand.

After a few seconds, David was expressionless as his hands had brought out a perfectly Cubic square lump of gold.

Currently holding onto the lump of gold, David's expression kept twitching. He didn't know much curse words, so he kept repeating the few he knew. The compass had wasted one of his three chances at finding a treasure

Gold, gold, gold. If he were in his previous life, David would undoubtedly go down his kneels with happiness since the lump of gold would definitely transform him into a rich man.

But he was in another world, Styfaex. Although gold wasn't as worthless as stones, it was only slightly more expensive than stone.

Moreover, an Exercising practitioner has no use for gold since it did absolutely nothing to increasing one's strength. Gold was only valuable for its appearance and its beneficial properties when used in building gadgets, tool, equipment etc.

Therefore, it was basically useless to David. But at least, this piece of gold would cost at most 50 Gyno points in the institute.

David sighed as though he had lost his soul. And he tossed the gold away. But as one might have expected, David's figure immediately flashed and he picked the hold back up.

"50 Gyno points is still something." David mumbled.

Right now, he was in another location the compass had pointed out to him.

As he was very close to reaching the place, the holographic arrow image started to brighten. Immediately, David slowed his steps to a halt as he surveyed the location ahead of him.

An old broken and dilapidated building was in front of him. The building would have being 20 meters tall of it wasn't the fact that the top building had collapsed.

David inspected the building and he wired for a couple of minutes. He wasn't in a hurry and if he had learnt one thing during his stay here, it was to remain as low key as possible least you die an unexpected death from the unknown.

Suddenly, David's ear flickered as he heard some strange noises coming from the second floor of the building as the building was at most, five stories.

David frowned softly, it seems a herd or pack had settled in the building. He could feel a headache on its way.

His eyes suddenly flashed snd without hesitation, David quietly covered the lid of the compass, automatically cancelling the holographic arrow image on the air.

Bringing forth his interface, a dim holographic image was presented. It seems as though Hazel was aware of the situation, therefore she had reduced the brightness level of the holographic image to a minimum.

He pressed clicked on his AI's ability, it was empty except for a single ability present, the lifeform Scanner.
