audience,"···"

That's a bit tragic.

"Brother, please accept my condolences. May the future be brighter."

"You used the wrong word, you must not be doing well in school."

"That's not the point. The point is, what exactly is Sang Ning doing?"

The appearance of this comment caused the live stream to freeze for a while before the comments returned to normal and new comments appeared.

But all the comments were "I don't know".

Meanwhile, Mu Tao and Mo Nainai returned carrying a basket of grayish-white stones.

"Ningning, what are these stones for?"

Mu Tao, who had unloaded the stones and piled them in a corner of the cave, came over and asked curiously.

Sang Ning paused in cutting the wood, then said naturally, "It's a secret for now, you'll find out in a few days."

These stones are limestone, which are quite useful, but she hasn't decided whether to use them yet.

The main reason for sending Mu Tao and Mo Nainai out to collect stones was to get some peace and quiet.

But don't tell them any of this yet; wait until she makes a decision.

Mu Tao and the others had no idea what Sang Ning was thinking. When she tried to keep it a secret, Mo Nainai became unhappy and kept pestering her to find out the answer.

Unexpectedly, Sang Ning kept her mouth shut. She didn't give her any hints, let alone tell her the answer. She just told her it was a secret.

Monet felt helpless about this, but there was nothing she could do.

The planks were stacked together one by one, and Sang Ning adjusted the laser axe's setting again, switching it to ray mode.

Then, everyone watched as she began drilling holes in the whole, uncut log.

Saying it was drilling holes might not be accurate; a more accurate description would be that they took a bunch of small pieces of wood in long, round, and other shapes from the log.

The audience was completely confused. Mu Tao and the others, who were squatting next to her and watching her work intently, were also very curious and asked her what she was doing.

"Make tables and chairs."

Sang Ning spoke concisely, his hands never stopping.

Mu Tao and the others exclaimed, "!!!"

It sounds like I'm hallucinating. Without metal, without any materials specifically for making furniture, and without even any parts, Sang Ning actually wants to make furniture out of wood. Is she sure she'll succeed?

After a long silence, Mu Tao, who was closest to Sang Ning, finally asked the question that had been on her mind, urged on by the looks of her two friends, "Ning Ning, can wood be used to make furniture?"

"Can."

Sang Ning nodded, placed the last piece of wood aside, stared at the pitted log for two seconds in silence, then put down the laser axe and rubbed his eyes. It was dark, and the cave was dimly lit.

Even though the fire was burning brightly, the area illuminated was limited due to the large size of the cave.

Her current location was not close to the fire, and the light was still affected.

If the lighting problem cannot be solved, then forget about working at night. So, you can stop work and start again tomorrow.

"You should go and rest."

After saying that, Sang Ning squatted down and began to sort through the wood.

Mu Tao and the others quickly offered their help.

"You're not doing it anymore?"

"It's too dark to see. Come back during the day."

"oh."

Mu Tao and his team accepted it well, but the viewers in the live stream weren't happy. They were still waiting for the mystery to be solved, but Sang Ning was stuck here, making a fool of them.

Most viewers protested, sending barrages of comments condemning Sang Ning for being inhumane, and demanding that the person in charge tell her to finish quickly so they could switch to other live streams.

Upon hearing what the person in charge said, Mu Tao and the others looked at Sang Ning with some concern. Just as they were about to comfort her, she said "oh".

Then···

That was the end of it.

Sang Ning, preoccupied with her own affairs, paid no attention to the threats posed by the viewers in the live stream.

It seems like they don't care since there's no audience.

The audience was speechless, and so was the person in charge, Mr. Luo.

He held back for a long time, but finally couldn't help but say, "Sang Ning, we still need to care about the audience."

Sang Ning: "...Can I ask why you care?"

She said, "I am a contestant. The only thing I need to do after coming to this show is to complete three years of survival on a desert planet. That is my mission."

"Whether the audience stays or leaves is their prerogative."

"Similarly, it is my freedom to do what I want."

The implication is that threats are useless against her; she can come and go as she pleases.

The viewers were furious and flocked to the live stream instead.

But after climbing over the wall, they discovered that compared to Sang Ning's team, the other contestants weren't bad either; some even performed quite well.

However, these contestants cannot meet face-to-face; if they do, they will start arguing and then fighting.

They say things like "gentlemen use words, not fists" and "stay calm and rational," but their status as competitors makes it impossible for these contestants to get along peacefully and calmly.

Often, before they've even exchanged a few words, they start fighting, with one contestant eliminating another, or two contestants teaming up to eliminate another.

Hearing the elimination announcement from the live streamer, Sang Ning and the others, who had already washed up and lay down to rest, suddenly opened their eyes and sat up.

"The elimination process has already begun?"

Luo Tianya was a little confused, but Sang Ning nodded, "It's obvious."

Almost the instant she finished speaking, the elimination announcement rang out again.

The contestant eliminated this time is contestant number 3, Ning Cheng.

"Ning... Ning Cheng was actually eliminated?"

Mu Tao exclaimed in disbelief, "The incredibly intelligent Ning Cheng was eliminated so early? I swear..."

He took a deep breath, and Sang Ning asked him, "Your friend?"

"No, hehe, hehe..."

He laughed as he spoke, looking genuinely delighted, "We've never gotten along since we were kids, and he was eliminated so quickly! I'm so happy, hahaha..."

Well, this performance was quite something for Sang Ning to say.

She looked at Luo Tianya, her eyes asking if Mu Tao and Ning Cheng had a bad relationship.

Luo Tianya, understanding her meaning, nodded slightly in agreement.

The relationship is indeed terrible, not just bad, otherwise they wouldn't be so gloating.

Sang Ning understood immediately and waited for the next announcement.

After Ning Cheng was eliminated, the live stream assistant went silent, and there were no further announcements.

"Six have been eliminated."

Monet murmured, then said seriously, "I don't understand, there's still a long time before the three-year deadline, why are there already contestants entering competitive mode?"

The three looked at each other, completely bewildered.

As the saying goes, "one kind of rice, a hundred kinds of people," just as there are no two identical leaves in this world, there are no two people with exactly the same personality.

Therefore, given their diverse personalities, they are unable to even analyze the situation.

After a moment of silence, Sang Ning lay down again, closed her eyes, and said, "Starting tomorrow, be more vigilant. If you encounter another contestant, it's best not to approach them casually until you can confirm they are harmless."
