The patrol team brought over a screen, and the supervisor projected the performance rankings onto it.
"Today is the last day of the assessment period. As of now, the top performer is—" The supervisor glanced at the screen, "Dong Er, 112 bottles; Hong Mao, 96 bottles; Zhao Yu, 88 bottles. Please submit your slime. After updating the rankings, I will announce the candidates for promotion this round."
The collectors didn't move. Their slime had just been completely looted; they'd worked for nothing today, probably not even getting their basic pay. Perfect, since they didn't have to hand over the slime, they could focus on keeping an eye on their supervisor and see who had created the explosive device. How dare they steal from everyone! So arrogant!
Hearing the rankings, Zhao Yu breathed a huge sigh of relief. He even had to thank Qian Rui; without anyone else overtaking him, he barely managed to secure a spot in the next round—after handing over the hidden slime, of course. Once Qian Rui made his move, the first place would definitely change hands; he only needed to surpass Hong Mao.
Zhao Yu squatted under the workbench, dug a hole in the ground, and dug out 10 bottles of slime hidden inside, making a total of 98 bottles.
On the screen, the rankings were updated, and Zhao Yu's name climbed to second place.
Before Zhao Yu could even relax, Hongmao casually strolled over with four bottles of slime: "What a coincidence, round it up to one hundred."
Zhao Yu's ranking immediately dropped back to third. He looked at Qian Rui with a dark face, already knowing in his heart that he could not keep his promotion spot.
Normally, a collector can collect 4-6 bottles a day. Before Qian Rui's illusory realm unfolded, there were 47 people in the factory. Although everyone's efficiency was low today due to rampant fraud and theft, and they were even robbed once by an unknown person in the morning, Qian Rui was still able to collect at least a hundred bottles of slime.
However, this is also good. Qian Rui was promoted, and he can wait for the next round. No one will interfere with him, and he will definitely be promoted again.
Moreover, once Qian Rui produces the slime, the other collectors will realize that she's behind the Void White Domain. Having incurred the wrath of the masses, whether Qian Rui will even live to see her actual promotion is uncertain.
"Has no one submitted the mucus?" The supervisor asked, somewhat disappointed.
Zhao Yu stared intently at Qian Rui, who then stood up.
"Yes." A clear female voice came from the doorway.
Li Feng, Li Rong, and Lu Lei stood outside the factory, their hands touching the combat packs fastened to their waists.
