Chapter 122 Preliminaries Begin
After Ji Xiaomi and Chaoyang finished their meal and returned to their respective homes, Xiaonian finally returned to normal.
"Brother, are you still angry?"
As soon as Ji Xiaomi got home, she took off her cloak, folded it carefully and put it in the closet.
Then I sat down on the sofa obediently...well, I opened the fruits and snacks I bought outside, and then found a drama to play.
"Brother, you're not going to do that, are you? I'm almost an adult, how can this be considered puppy love?"
Ji Xiaomi began to speak for herself.
"Besides, I haven't even started dating yet. How can it be considered puppy love?"
【……】
It seems so.
No, I was led astray!
Still so angry!
Xiaonian was very angry and decided to break up with his sister for 24 hours!
"Brother, if I don't fall in love now and no longer have any contact with Aye, then may I ask my dear brother, when can I fall in love?
Or, when will you accept me having a relationship?"
Ji Xiaomi's serious question surprised Xiaonian.
But he couldn't answer for a moment.
Seeing that Xiaonian didn't respond for a long time, Ji Xiaomi was not anxious, but continued to express his own views.
She didn't want to argue with Xiaonian, nor did she think she had done anything wrong.
And her brother is not an unreasonable person.
Therefore, Ji Xiaomi would rather have a good talk with her brother.
"Brother, maybe you're worried that I'll get hurt because I'm too young, or maybe you think I'm not an independent individual yet, that I can't control my emotions...
But brother, I am very clear-headed. I know that I came to the southern base to get energy beads for mom. I will not delay this matter because of Aye.
But I also don't want to let go of Aye easily. If I miss that exciting feeling, I might never get it again. He said he's willing to wait for me to come back, so I will definitely come back."
Xiaonian was silent for a long time.
I also thought about it for a long time.
In the end, it turned out that Ji Xiaomi was not wrong.
[I'm crazy—Xiaomi, you're right, you're an independent individual. I can't interfere with your feelings just because I'm your brother.]
But Ah Ye's identity...
[Xiaomi, what if Ah Ye is hiding something from you?]
Ji Xiaomi was stunned: "Brother, do you know something?"
Just now when they were on the street, Xiaonian seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Could it be that Ah Ye has a character problem? Like, moral corruption, promiscuity?"
[Uh, that's not the case. He's a single mother.]
"Then...his family is not good. His father is a gambler or something. He looks glamorous, but in fact, he owes a lot of money behind the scenes?"
[…No, his parents died a long time ago.]
Ji Xiaomi touched her chin: "What else could be the problem? Does he have body odor? Or some other disease?"
【…………】
[Well, none of that. He doesn't snore or smoke.]
As a system, within a certain range, he has the authority to investigate the other party's life and physical condition.
As for the celebrity system, one must of course learn more about people in the circle in order to better assist the host - although after the apocalypse, this skill seems to be used to screen candidates for his sister.
After such a screening, Xiaonian discovered in despair that, hey, Chaoyang is a pretty good guy.
"Then what is he hiding from me?" Ji Xiaomi was puzzled. "Brother, if you know, just tell me."
[I don't know. You should handle your own feelings yourself.]
Although he realized it later and decided not to stop Ji Xiaomi from falling in love, Xiaonian still felt upset.
It's just... a bit sour.
So... humph, he wouldn't tell Ji Xiaomi that A Ye is Chao Yang!
Wait until both of them have their identities revealed, then you can start arguing among yourselves!
"Forget it if you don't want to say it!"
Ji Xiaomi didn't worry too much.
Since Xiaonian is like this and no one said anything, it must not be a big problem.
…
…
Two days later, Ji Xiaomi and Hao Junfeng went to District 7 of the Corps PK competition.
Because the number of people required this time is at least one and no more than five.
Therefore, Xiang Dong'er was not allowed to come.
It is better for pregnant women to rest well at home.
"The format for the preliminaries isn't specified, but I guess it has something to do with the number of people. I'm not sure if I can help, but I'll definitely try not to hold them back!"
On the way to District 7, Hao Junfeng spoke nervously, looking even more nervous than Ji Xiaomi.
"Okay, you're just here to help me get a few more heads, so why would you be a drag?" Ji Xiaomi waved her hand indifferently.
Soon, the two arrived at District 7.
This time, the number they drew was quite early, so they were the third to go on stage.
After arriving, Ji Xiaomi and Hao Junfeng immediately noticed the specialness of the PK area - compared to the open square during the auditions, this time, the entire square was surrounded by iron nets.
Inside the square was a huge cage covered with black cloth.
This is……
"The preliminaries, wouldn't it be a beast fight?" Ji Xiaomi raised her eyebrows slightly.
This scene, this configuration, is very similar.
[Almost the same, but the cages don't contain animals, but zombies.]
Xiaonian said.
Ji Xiaomi was slightly surprised, but soon felt that this competition system was normal.
Wouldn't it be boring if the troops always PKed against each other?
It's like a fight between elementary school students.
As for the legion, they all have to go out on missions, fighting zombies, mutant beasts, mutant plants and the like, and they all live a life on the edge of a knife.
It’s exciting when there are zombies.
Soon, the host arrived and the troops that drew number 1 also arrived.
When the host announced the rules and the official controlled the drone to lift the black cloth on the cage, there was an uproar around.
"Oh my god, zombies!"
These are ordinary people who came simply to watch the fun, and they reacted strongly when they saw the zombies.
The people in the Corps were only slightly surprised, and then they immediately understood.
It seems that the preliminaries are about killing zombies.
Dealing with humans and killing zombies are indeed two different things, so it is normal to use them in competitions.
"This time, we're competing on how quickly you can kill ten zombies. The shorter the time, the higher your ranking."
The host announced the rules with a smile.
"The minimum number of participants is one, and the maximum is five. The system uses a last-place elimination process, so the advancing teams will be announced tonight."
After hearing this rule, Hao Junfeng suddenly became anxious: "Xiaomi, won't we be at a disadvantage then?"
After all, other corps basically had five or more people, but they only had two.
Killing zombies must be slow.
The others had obviously thought of this as well, and their eyes turned towards Ji Xiaomi and Hao Junfeng with a hint of teasing.
But Ji Xiaomi raised her eyebrows slightly and was not nervous.
She doesn't think so.
This rule is obviously disadvantageous to the smaller legions, but would the official organizers of such a grand PK competition come up with such obviously buggy rules?
