Chapter 40 is a bit confusing
"This one-day simulation training involved ten new executives, divided into five groups."
"Those who survive after twenty-four hours will be promoted to full executive officers and undergo a rank assessment."
"Attention, death means elimination. Eliminated candidates will need to retake the first-level assessment."
The mechanical voice paused for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled. "The simulation training is about to begin. Piti wishes all the new executives good luck."
"Please remember the scarlet letter engraved on the Alliance World Bureau. Piti looks forward to rating you in 24 hours."
After a "hiss" sound, the electronic screen in the training hall went black. After a few seconds, the "giggle" sound was heard again.
A thin male vampire standing next to Qi Sijing rubbed his arms and said, "Who researched this? It's too sinister, isn't it?"
The nearly 5'9" red-haired woman next to the male vampire sneered and flicked her long curly hair. "Aren't all the researchers at the General World Affairs Bureau as sinister as ghosts?"
The male vampire said, "Hey!" "Just scold them if you want. Why are you scolding ghosts?"
As soon as the male vampire finished speaking, the "chuckle" sound suddenly stopped, the surroundings became dark for a moment, and then the scene changed drastically.
Qi Sijing suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Fortunately, he had gained experience with pain after six months, so he was able to endure it without any change in expression.
This level of pain should be caused by being shot. Qi Sijing was wondering why Qi Juchen was shot when a spherical clown popped up in front of him.
The clown's mouth stretched to his eyes as he said playfully, "Welcome to the land of Piti. Let's play the gun-loading game! We'll draw lots, and the lucky group will get a bye."
The thin male vampire spoke again, "This thing's physical form is a clown egg, so is its kingdom a circus?"
The curly-haired woman said speechlessly, "Then we are animals in the circus."
Male vampire: "Oh, then you are a lioness."
The conversation between the two was really sick. Qi Sijing raised his hand to rub his shoulders and looked at their name tags.
The male vampire is called He Dang and the curly-haired woman is called Liu Xin.
The on-site executive officers all went to see the strange couple. Piti was unhappy about being ignored, and her voice became shrill, "Each group, please send an executive officer to draw lots!"
Qi Sijing and Gu Langyan exchanged a glance. After seeing what Gu Langyan meant, Qi Sijing whispered, "I'm not an alpha."
Gu Langyan had a deadpan expression on his face. "One in five, it's impossible to be that unlucky."
"Okay." Qi Sijing was the first to step forward. He carefully searched the box for a long time and took out a red ball marked "E".
With him in the lead, several other groups quickly sent their executives forward.
All green balls.
Gu Langyan, who had just said "It's impossible to be that unlucky" a minute ago: "..."
Qi Sijing, who had spent half a day carefully selecting, said: "..."
The executives who wanted to draw a bye but Qi Sijing was the first to get one cast jealous eyes at the two of them.
"Congratulations to Executive Officers Nine and Ten of Group E for earning a bye!" Piti set off a firework and continued with a chuckle, "Now I'm going to explain the rules. Everyone, please listen carefully."
"Team A versus Team C, Team B versus Team D. Each team's odd-numbered officers load their guns, and the even-numbered officers shoot. The winner is the one whose bullet kills the even-numbered officer of the opposing team. Reload after each shot. Remember, bullets can only damage the even-numbered officer of the opposing team."
"Also, don't be discouraged, the defeated teams! The surviving executives of the defeated teams can team up. As long as you eliminate Team E in the next round, you can continue playing with Piti~"
"Violation of the rules will result in immediate elimination. I look forward to your performance~"
He Dang from group D followed suit: "Oh~la~performance~"
Liu Xin rolled her eyes and said, "If you feel itchy, rub it against the wall."
Qi Sijing grabbed a chair and sat down, resting his chin on his hand as he watched the fight. "I said I'm not an A-lister, right?"
Gu Langyan leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and said calmly, "If stepping on landmines is a talent, then publish a book."
Qi Sijing looked up at the sky and rubbed his shoulders again. "Let's stop talking nonsense and talk about something serious. Do you remember what words are engraved on the wall of the Alliance World Bureau?"
Gu Langyan looked at the battle station, judging the abilities of these executive officers while calmly reading to Qi Sijing, "Obey orders, put citizens first, and treat teammates well."
Qi Sijing sat up straighter and questioned, "Be kind to your teammates?"
Gu Langyan remained unmoved. "I know, no need to repeat."
The words "Protect teammates" written in bold red on the wall of the Alliance World Bureau floated through Qi Sijing's mind. Qi Sijing: "..."
Gu Langyan raised his chin towards the A-Team combat station and whispered to the crew-haired man loading his gun, "That's Yan Wen. He has fast hands, a sharp mind, and excellent dynamic vision."
Qi Sijing looked up and happened to see Yan Wen blocking the bullet for his teammates.
Almost at the moment Yan Wen was shot in the arm, the alarm sounded.
Piti popped up from nowhere, his voice shrill, "Alert! Alert! The executive officer of Group C has violated the rules. Executive Officers One and Two are eliminated immediately!"
The next second, there was no trace of Group C at the scene.
Qi Sijing pulled the corner of his mouth, "Yanyan, one less opponent."
Gu Langyan turned to look at Group B and Group D. "How would you solve this problem?"
Qi Sijing smiled and said, "The rules don't require you to stand on the battle platform, nor do they require you to load the bullet into the gun before you can use it."
He spoke without lowering his voice, and the four executive officers at the combat table heard every word he said.
The few people who had been diligently loading their guns and shooting seriously just now reacted in two seconds, grabbed a handful of bullets and started close combat.
Piti, who was originally enjoying the show, suddenly had his mouth droop from under his eyes to his chin. He glared at Qi Sijing with a face full of resentment.
Qi Sijing bent down to pick up the bullet that rolled to his feet, curled his lips and pressed the bullet directly into the palm of his hand.
Piti's eyes changed, and he let out a sharp roar, "Alert! Alert! The executive officers of Group B have violated the rules. Executive Officers No. 5 and No. 6 will be eliminated immediately!"
After listening to the report, Qi Sijing pulled out the bullet, wiped the blood from his palm, and said slowly: "It hurts, Yanyan."
Gu Langyan glanced at the bullet in Qi Sijing's hand and said calmly, "Tell Qi Juchen through a dream."
Qi Sijing's eyes lit up, and he looked up at Gu Langyan, "Good idea! Do you have any channels for this?"
Yan Wen listened to the entire process without missing a word, "..."
There are a few sane people here.
He Dang and Liu Xin threw a punch with all their might, but it went in vain. They stumbled several steps and almost fell to their death: "..."
The win was a bit strange.
Piti, who originally only wanted to eliminate two executives: "..."
You know what? When your plans are disrupted, you really want to scrap them.
