Chapter 64 Card Tearing Game
Alliance?
So, could there be some insider manipulation?
Yes, the housekeeper just said that before the interview officially begins, all actions are allowed. This is obviously a hint for them to start a vicious competition.
I just don’t know how to better deal with vicious competition.
Lu Jiamu asked casually, "So what abilities do you have?"
The applicant paused for a moment, then said somewhat arrogantly, "The fact that we can reach this level is a testament to our ability. The incompetent people have already been screened out."
They all arrived before Lu Jiamu. Lu Jiamu didn't know their situation and was not sure whether they really wanted to cooperate or wanted to cheat people.
Moreover, there were still many applicants who had not come up yet, and Lu Jiamu was not in a hurry to reach a consensus with the three of them now.
So he asked, "But we have arrived here too. What advantages do you plan to use to form an alliance with us?"
The applicant's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but he did not further introduce himself in order to get a chance to cooperate. He just said: "We are recruiting nine people. If we don't stick together, we will definitely suffer."
I don't know if he is on guard and unwilling to reveal his situation, or if he doesn't have a strong desire to cooperate and wants to trick them, or if he simply doesn't have any special skills.
Anyway, he didn't seem to have any sincerity and was not worth cooperating with. Lu Jiamu smiled at him and didn't respond.
It didn't take long before the elevator went up several times, or it hit the top floor, or it kept rolling there madly.
In the end, only one lucky applicant made the jump to this level.
As usual, the butler welcomed him warmly and asked him to come over and sit down. The butler raised his wrist again, as if looking at his watch, and then said very gently: "Applicants No. 31 to 40, please enter the building."
After these ten people were let in, the elevator only went up eight times, but no one jumped into this floor. The butler continued, "Applicants No. 41 to 50, please enter the building."
It seems that in this wave, either some people were afraid and didn't dare to come in, or two people were stuck at the beginning and didn't even get on the elevator.
The waiting time for other applicants to enter was very long, and no one knew how many people were waiting outside. But gradually, people jumped into the 444th floor with all kinds of strange abilities, and the first comers were carefully observing the performance of the later ones.
As more and more people showed up, and the housekeeper seemed very kind and did not restrict the applicants too much, those people soon began to communicate with each other eagerly.
After the initial polite words, the butler did not force them to sit on the bench. Some applicants walked to the other end of the elevator to talk.
The applicant who had been rejected by Lu Jiamu before followed them, but after communicating for a while, he mentioned the situation of the five people over there.
He was quite eloquent, and as he spoke, the others quickly realized the five people's strong abilities, as well as their unclear attitudes.
The recruitment only recruits nine people, and the conflicts among all the applicants are irreconcilable. Since the five of them are very strong, it would be best if we can cooperate with them. If not, then we are strong competitors.
They are either friends or enemies, and the stronger they are, the sooner they need to be eliminated. The fewer applicants survive, the greater the chances of their job search being successful.
After a few people had communicated, the news spread with the occasional one or two new people jumping in.
After more than a dozen applicants had gathered on the 444th floor, Yu Leng suddenly sensed an extremely strong and sticky malicious aura spreading around him.
He was frightened and jumped up, dodging subconsciously.
The next second, almost all the applicants present moved at the same time, pulling out various weapons from their pockets and rushing towards them.
As soon as Lu Jiamu saw him jump up, he immediately dodged and avoided the sudden heavy punch.
Yu Leng suddenly shouted: "Vote, vote, vote!"
Lu Jiamu's eyes rolled for a moment, and he immediately turned his wrist and put the cardboard card in his hand behind his back. Then he noticed that the other party was just faking a move, and the real purpose was just to make it easier for others to grab his card.
It turns out that the key to vicious competition lies in that job application card.
Although this group of job seekers had just communicated with each other, the three people who came in before Lu Jiamu did not see through his abilities. In addition, he started trembling with the three people in front of him as soon as he came in, looking like he was scared out of his wits, so they all just thought that he was lucky and had some agility.
Lu Jiamu watched as someone with a knife punched at him, but he did not dodge quickly. Instead, he waited until those people had surrounded him before his figure suddenly faded away, allowing those attackers to pass through him.
Lu Jiamu took advantage of the gap when the other party had not reacted, saw the position of the cards in their hands, and with a clever move, he took out two cards, one in each hand.
Lu Jiamu turned them over and took a look, then slowly tore up the two job application cards in front of them.
The monster butler, who seemed to have seen nothing just now, saw them engaging in a vicious competition, and seemed to chuckle and clapped his hands gently, as if he was pleased with the situation: "The job application card is damaged, and the application is cancelled."
After it finished speaking, the two applicants whose job application cards had been torn up suddenly lost their fighting power, were pushed to the sides by a huge force, and smashed against the wall of the corridor.
They lost their previous viciousness, and after a moment of silence, they began to beg for mercy loudly: "No! Give me another chance!"
"The application process hasn't started yet. Give me... give me another job application card!"
The butler said nothing, but just chuckled maliciously.
"No! No! No..."
The walls on both sides were like two pools of melted mucus, slowly swallowing up the two applicants who were pressed against the wall, and they were soon deeply trapped in them.
Lu Jiamu withdrew his gaze and stared at the cards in the hands of the remaining people.
The other applicants swallowed their saliva as they watched this scene.
After they realized that Lu Jiamu was by no means a good guy and not as weak as he appeared, they immediately retreated, changed the direction of their attack, and set their sights on Yu Leng and Wei Xiaoyan, who seemed the easiest to bully.
But after realizing their intentions, the five of them began to gradually gather together tacitly, and would no longer be easily caught and ambushed.
In the chaotic scramble, Kou Man and Wang Biao fought very well and blew up several people's heads, but they were a little clumsy. Yu Leng's eyes rolled back and forth, as if he could predict something, and he pulled Wei Xiaoyan to dodge left and right, running very fast.
In a short period of time, although the group of applicants had more people, they did not gain an advantage.
The edges of Lu Jiamu's figure began to blur, like a piece of tampered data code.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he moved back and forth among the crowd, and soon got three job application cards, which he tore into pieces one by one in front of them.
The housekeeper happily announced: "Cancellation of the application."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person whose job application card had been torn off was slammed heavily on both sides of the corridor. Like the two people before him, he was swallowed up by the wall amid wailing.
Seeing that they had suffered a great loss from this sudden attack, the other applicants dared not continue the dispute. Fearing that Lu Jiamu would steal their job application cards in the chaos, they began to retreat and each retreated to different corners.
More newcomers escaped from the elevator and jumped into the 444th floor, but they didn't understand the reason for their dispute, nor did they understand the current situation of the group, so they didn't dare to come over rashly and all gathered near the elevator.
As the number of people increased, disputes soon arose on their side.
The butler gloated, saying "disqualified from the job", and then threw the applicants who had been beaten to death or had their cards torn off in the dispute into the wall.
The applicants who had just had conflicts with Lu Jiamu and the other four people are now turning against each other, either harming each other or turning their attention to the newcomers.
While watching them having fun, the steward remained calm and bowed to the newcomers to express his welcome. He emphasized the rules that all actions can be taken before the interview begins, and then issued new call notifications in an orderly manner.
Soon, in their vicious competition, half of them were eliminated.
The survivors from the elevator came over in a panic, chose their own chairs and sat down. Although they were nominally huddled together, they were still wary of each other.
As the applicants' numbers reached over 500, after the last elevator crashed into the top floor and exploded, the butler suddenly clapped his hands and said, "All applicants have reached the designated floor. The application process has officially begun."
After it finished speaking, it added with a hint of lingering regret: "We are all civilized people. During the job application, it is strictly forbidden to use any violent means or fight over job application cards. Those who engage in the above-mentioned behaviors will be deemed to lack professional qualities."
Now that this sentence comes out of it, it sounds a bit funny.
Although the last few applicants who jumped in did not have time to find out the situation among the others, they also avoided the fate of being consumed by internal malicious competition.
The housekeeper waved his hand and opened the door: "Follow me."
All the living applicants present stood up and followed it into the room obediently.
It looked like an ordinary classroom inside, with desks and chairs neatly arranged.
The butler pointed to the tables and chairs and said, "Please take a seat, and fill in the position you are applying for and your strengths on the application card."
"The main reason for this recruitment is because my little master Batty is about to go to school. We hope to hire a qualified language, science and physical education teacher, three personal servants, a cook, a deputy butler who can temporarily take over my duties, and a bodyguard to better take care of my little master."
"Let's get started."
It said this without any movement, and the candidate sitting in the first seat went to the podium, picked up a pen and started writing.
After the first person finished writing, he turned around and handed the pen to the second person.
They had probably already discussed in advance which position each of them wanted to apply for, so without wasting any time, they quickly filled out their job application cards and passed the pen to Lu Jiamu.
Lu Jiamu took the pen and looked at the bloody words on his job application card for a moment, then suddenly laughed: No...
The pen was taken by the first applicant from the podium himself, not handed to them by the butler.
