I Still Insist That the City Is a School Today

After the tragic death of Mu Yi, a former psychiatrist, in a violent incident at the hospital, he is reborn as a student in a world crawling with monsters and strange horrors. What a cause for celebration... my ass!!! Worse still, a System called "Project Moon" has come along with him. Isn't this the end of everything?!

Although monsters and strange horrors are everywhere in this world, and bizarre rule-based phenomena can be found at every turn, these are the most serious and difficult problems of our time. But under the ruler's tyranny, none of them is the biggest problem. What a cause for celebration, what a cause for celebration...

"Ah, so according to you, compressing the entire City into one school would greatly reduce the threat? Ah, thank you so much, Miss □□."

And so, the world's strongest human survival academy, the "School," makes its grand entrance!!!

Here we have the "Student Council," an association governing body made up of Associations Zero through Thirteen; the "Wings," the violent research administration tasked with managing all of the School's research and related affairs; and the "Principals," who monitor everything, suppress everything, and pass judgment on everything.

Now then, I'm counting on you, Miss □□!!! My turn, dull!!!

Personality Extraction ≮Reincarnation & Boredom: X≯

A new modeling language, a new method of encapsulation. Those who should have returned to the earth were brought back in the form of data, sealed inside machine bodies. If the data cannot be fully observed, then simulate it directly in reality. Once every fragment had been formatted and every node set, the calculations officially began. Identity, position, circumstances, experience... even names were erased. Tracing backward from the endpoint to the starting point, they truly began again from scratch. But after remaining nameless for too long, it became hard to tell the virtual from the real. The truth vanished along with the departure of the last friend. Then some people suddenly appeared. They spoke and moved, while "I" sank into a story with no beginning or end. I was nothing but a clumsy witness.

Th-this can't be right, can it? Ah, well, as long as it works.

And so...

"The things I want to do are few and far between; the things I have to do are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. I'm Lowell, Chief of Section Two, Association Six of the 'Student Council.' Pleased to meet you."

≮Association Six, Section Two Chief: Lowell≯

"I will resign from my position as Chief of Section One of Association Six. I alone will bear the losses caused by my unilateral withdrawal from the Association and breach of contract... I thought I could keep my composure... but... Lowell..."

≮Association Six, Section One Chief & Blooming E.G.O., Nine Sons of the Dragon: Shao≯

"My instincts didn't lie to me. Thanks to you, we're all about to get slaughtered."

≮R Corporation Fourth Army Group, Rabbit Team Captain: Miao≯

"Thinking that the ecosystem we have worked so long to build may change because of this makes my heart ache again and again. There is no place for you here anymore."

≮????: ??≯

Miss □□, can I take a day off today?

No? Aaaaaah!!!

Today, Mu Yi is still all talk, doing his small part to protect this fragile world. What a cause for celebration. Don't you agree, Miss Carmen?

The author is a medical student. Updates are irregular because of a heavy course load, and I apologize. You don't need to know the vast worldbuilding of Project Moon; I'll add more in "City Trivia." Suggestions are welcome, and the author will drop by the comments from time to time. This is my first novel. Thank you for your support.
