After saying those harsh words, Li Tianxie left trembling.
Jiang Rong curled his lips in boredom: "Such a coward, boring."
Song Yanzhen was worried: "Since he had someone behind the scenes to do this, could he have bribed others to target you in the exam room?"
"It's still unclear who is targeting whom." Jiang Rong said lazily.
She thought of Yu Yi's disgusted expression and let out a soft sigh.
Even the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes could be bribed by Li Tianxie.
After the competition rules are announced, there will be an hour of free time. You can go back to have a meal and change clothes. Then gather on time at 7:30 and the candidates will be dropped into the examination map by helicopter.
Jiang Rong and Song Yanzhen went to the cafeteria to have breakfast, and then returned to the dormitory to change into training clothes and take their equipment.
When she went downstairs, she happened to see Hua Mengtao.
Hua Mengtao looks slim and graceful even in her training suit. Her long burgundy curly hair is tied into a bun, revealing her beautiful fair face. She is still surrounded by many boys. It is no exaggeration to say that she is like a star surrounded by stars.
Jiang Rong only glanced at him and continued walking forward. Hua Mengtao followed him and asked with a smile, "How was your personal mission? Was it difficult?"
Jiang Rong: “.”
"Oh." Hua Mengtao raised an eyebrow: "It doesn't look good."
"Do you need my help?" she asked again.
Jiang Rong stopped and looked at her: "We are competitors."
Hua Mengtao smiled and said, "Aren't there eleven clearance spots? There are only two of us, so we can't really be considered competitors."
She thought of something and raised her eyebrows: "Don't worry, I just want to pass the level. The person you should be most wary of is not me, but someone else."
She patted Jiang Rong's arm and whispered in his ear, "She has a bad temper and will kill anyone she sees. She might end up in a slaughterhouse. Be careful."
The distance was too close, Jiang Rong could clearly smell the cool rose scent on Hua Mengtao, but it soon disappeared.
After Hua Mengtao finished speaking, she smiled and left.
Jiang Rong frowned slightly.
Hua Mengtao said that there would be a "slaughterhouse" of people in this exam.
What the candidates want to get is the head points in the confrontation lane. The most likely reason for a candidate to kill another candidate is to take away the head points from the opponent, but from the perspective of the competition system, there is only "clearance" and no "ranking".
In other words, as long as you complete your personal task and get two head points to reach a safe point, you can pass the level. No matter how many head points you get, there will be no other rewards.
Then getting extra head points is not cost-effective, and no one would choose to do so. But if what Hua Mengtao said is true, there should be a strong madman in this exam who doesn't care about cost-effectiveness at all.
The meaning of the slaughterhouse is that everyone present will be killed indiscriminately, no matter if they are candidates or opponents. If they are not strong enough, doing so is simply seeking death.
"Jiang Rong!" Song Yanzhen called out from afar, "Your name has been called, come quickly!"
"Yes." Jiang Rong walked over quickly and suddenly said to Song Yanzhen, "After arriving at the drop-off point, the only thing you have to do is hide yourself and then find me. Don't conflict with anyone."
Song Yan was stunned for a moment: "I'm not that weak..."
Jiang Rong whispered, "It's not a question of whether you are weak or not. There are people slaughtering people in the exam. If you run into them, it will be difficult for you to win."
Song Yanzhen opened his eyes wide, followed Jiang Rong for a few steps with a serious expression, and then asked, "...What is a slaughterhouse?"
Jiang Rong: “.”
The logistics staff checked everyone's equipment and found weapons and food on many people. Li Rui angrily said, "You all seem weak, but you have a lot of crooked ideas! Do you think we're so stupid as to let you bring so much stuff into the exam room?! Didn't I tell you that each person could only carry one dagger at most? Huh?!"
Everyone lowered their heads and listened to the lecture. Li Rui scolded him again, then stepped back, put on a gas mask, and gestured, "Release the hypnotic gas!"
The hypnotic gas was released, and people fell to the ground in an instant. Jiang Rong was a little unsteady on her feet. When she was about to fall to the ground, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her sight. She shook her head, but could not see the person's appearance clearly.
[…022!] Jiang Rong called his system with difficulty: [Is Shang Shaoheng here?]
022, living in Jiang Rong's consciousness, was so dazed that he couldn't see clearly. He said, "The male protagonist should still be in Yancheng right now. Why is he here?"
Jiang Rong also felt that it was right, Shang Shaoheng couldn't possibly be here.
The hypnotic gas took effect very quickly. Most of the others had already fallen down. Jiang Rong could not hold on and fell backwards. In her last consciousness, she felt as if someone caught her, but also as if no one had.
She fell into a deep sleep.
"Why is it so light?" The man held the person in his arms with one hand, and was still talking on the phone with the other hand.
The other side: “…Huh?”
"I didn't talk to you." Shang Shaoheng put his arm around Jiang Rong's waist, letting her lean on him so she wouldn't fall down. He said, "Let's arrange it this way. Don't worry about his life or death. Hang up."
After hanging up the phone, Shang Shaoheng threw the phone to Chi Er, then picked up Jiang Rong, stepped over the candidates on the ground, and put him on a chair.
Li Rui stood by and wanted to watch but didn't dare to. His curiosity was about to explode. He didn't know what Shang Shaoheng came here for.
Shang Shaoheng also changed into a dark training suit, which made his shoulders look broad and his waist look narrow. He wore a pair of black tactical boots that fit his calf muscles tightly, making his long legs look neat and straight. He wore a tactical belt around his waist, on which hung a dagger and a waist bag.
As he stood there, Li Rui felt like a new recruit under his command.
"Where are the things?" Shang Shaoheng asked Chi Er.
"Here." Chi Er handed the thing to Shang Shaoheng. Shang Shaoheng pinched Jiang Rong's chin and looked at him for a while, then said, "He's much more well-behaved since he fell asleep."
Li Rui finally couldn't suppress his curiosity, and he looked over secretly with one eye open and the other closed.
Then he saw the famous boss of Yancheng pinching Jiang Rong's chin with one hand and holding a willow charcoal stick in the other, painting on that snow-white face.
No... to be precise, he was playing a game of Tic-Tac-toe with himself on Jiang Rong's face.
Chi Er almost couldn't hold back his laughter. He coughed and said, "Master, Miss Jiang will definitely be very angry when she wakes up."
Shang Shaoheng: "Hasn't she made me angry often enough?"
After finishing one side, Shang Shaoheng looked at the other half of Jiang Rong's face. After careful consideration, he drew a small black flower on her face. Then he stood up and wiped his hands with a wet tissue. He said, "Alright, get ready to launch."
"Yes!" Li Rui responded quickly.
Chi Er watched the logistics personnel boarding the candidates onto the helicopter one by one. When someone was about to take Jiang Rong away, Shang Shaoheng suddenly leaned over and put something into her waist bag.
Others didn't see it clearly, but Chi Er saw it clearly.
It was the butterfly knife that originally belonged to Jiang Rong.
