Chapter 83
【No. 67 Chen Shushu has been eliminated. 】
【No. 59 Yang Wen-chun has been eliminated. 】
【No. 88 Building Lan has been eliminated. 】
…
In the dark rain forest, elimination notifications kept lighting up on the wrists of the surviving freshmen. Fewer and fewer freshmen spoke in the group, and everyone seemed to be in an inexplicable panic.
[Everyone in the rainforest should evacuate immediately, there is something strange in the rainforest! ]
[Run to another place, somewhere open and unobstructed! ]
[What on earth is in the rain forest? Ahh ...
Time went back to ten minutes ago. Amid the continuous elimination notification sounds, a blood-red warning suddenly flashed on the watches of the freshmen.
【Please note, freshmen, the number of people alive in the rainforest area has dropped to 57%! The danger level of the rainforest has increased, please act with caution! 】
A group of freshmen: "..."
Even though more than a dozen people were killed or wounded, they were still completely confused in the darkness and had no idea what the danger was. Some of them couldn't even see their classmates clearly and were eliminated for no apparent reason.
After more than two hours of chaotic darkness, the freshmen finally learned a bitter lesson: the more isolated they are, the more likely they are to be eliminated.
The freshmen whose luck was still good gathered in the group to gather with their friends, but a new problem arose:
Once the number of freshmen in a certain place reaches a certain level, an inexplicable elimination mode will be activated. The reminder that xxx has been eliminated is like a death warrant following behind, which makes people crazy and frustrated.
After this happened twice, some students who were more sensitive finally realized that something was wrong.
[Everyone, please stop sending each other your location in the group. I suspect there is a traitor among us! Once our location is exposed or a certain number of people gather, the traitor will sneak in and attack us! ]
[Ahhhhhh help! Is this military training, wilderness survival, or werewolf? ]
[This is even scarier than a paranormal phenomenon. It feels like someone is chasing us and hunting us. Could it be that there is a ghost in the military training area? ! ! ]
Messages came one after another in the group, and everyone was in a panic.
The school they were admitted to was already special. The military training entry method was different from the usual one, which made them feel uneasy. After more than two hours, everyone was in a completely different place. There was no teacher, and classmates were eliminated one after another for unknown reasons. If the previous opening ceremony had not raised their psychological threshold, some of them would have collapsed by being scared by such a supernatural situation.
【Don't panic, our classmates have already made a rough map of the current area. To the west of the rainforest area are rocky beaches, to the north are deserts, and to the northwest are glaciers. Just run to the area you think you can handle! 】
[I think every area is worse than the rainforest area———]
[Help, help! There is a ghost chasing me! ! ! ]
…
The freshmen group was in a panic, but the Hunters were not very happy. After they eliminated a lot of freshmen, a general reminder came out in the group—
【Current number of people: 79112】
In two hours, they eliminated a total of 33 freshmen, which sounds like a considerable achievement. The military training lasts for a month. At this rate, they can eliminate most of the freshmen tonight.
But no one felt relaxed. Instead, everyone became alert at the same time—because it was too simple.
The fluorescent words suspended in the air in the dark are more useful than a flashlight. Under the premise of ensuring that the "prey" does not use the watch to send messages, you can easily eliminate people with just a light tap. As long as you are careful enough, even groups of three or two can be easily eliminated.
But the simpler it is, the more vigilant everyone becomes. They have also experienced some of the bad tastes of their seniors at the opening ceremony. Even though the number of people is huge, it is impossible for them to open such a big backdoor for the hunters!
After eliminating another freshman, Yu Tu stopped and looked up at the sky.
He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that... the sky seemed to be a little brighter.
Yu Tu Miao stayed there for a while, and after some consideration, he gave up and continued to chase the freshman he had just seen.
Yu Tu jumped to a thick pile of fallen leaves and dug out his watch from the leaves. Normally, things you carry on your body will change with the changes of the original prototype, but he didn't know if their watches had been tampered with. After Yu Tu turned back to his original form, the watch fell from the sky like a hoop and hit the jade-white roots of the sapling.
Yu Tu: “…”
It was impossible for Yu Tu to give up his means of communication, so he could only find a place to hide the watch. After eliminating the classmates nearby, he moved the watch to another place to hide it.
The vegetation in the rainforest is dense, and the thick dead branches and leaves can dampen the sound. In addition, it is dark, and after Yu Tu turns back to his original form, he kills indiscriminately. Among the eliminated freshmen, half of them are from the rainforest area.
But an inexplicable intuition made Yu Tu stop his pursuit. He used a leaf to light up the screen and began typing with the tip of the leaf on the old-fashioned keyboard (with extra-large characters) that he had set up in advance.
Yu Tu: [I feel like something is not right, be careful.]
In the hunter group, Hao Zhizhi, who used the prototype to "kill" two people on the rocky beach, blew on her sore claws, flicked out her nails with difficulty, and typed a reply———
【agree.】
She suspected that day was about to dawn, and the day-night transition in the military training area might not be synchronized with the outside world and was set in advance.
Eric: [Should we gather?]
After daybreak, the fluorescent characters, which are mainly white, floating in the air are not very obvious. Without the cover of darkness, it becomes difficult to eliminate people.
Gu Hongying: [How about we gather together first to exchange information from each district? ]
The four of them entered four areas corresponding to their attributes.
Yu Tu: [Let’s gather in the rain forest area. There are the least freshmen here during the day.]
After throwing away a certain sense of shame, the tea tree seedling itself is really useful in the dark.
The other three people agreed, so Yu Tu distributed his location in the group and climbed up a tall tree with the bracelet slung across his shoulder like a shoulder bag.
Having just climbed to the top of the tree, Yu Tu placed the leaves on the branches and prepared to take a nap, when he suddenly felt like a sun, illuminating the surroundings.
Yu Tu: “……?!”
His leaf turned 360 degrees and found that this was not his illusion. The sky changed from night to day in three seconds.
Yu Tu shook his leaves and found that the glow was not an illusion. Even though it was daytime, he still found himself a little dazzling.
The second hunter rule suddenly popped up in Yu Tu's mind: [Hunters during the day will always feel tired, and cunning prey may be able to see through your disguise.]
Yu Tu: “…”
The light is so bright that it is blinding. Is this fake? This is simply overt installation!
When the night turned to day and the four of them began to glow, all the freshmen except them received the same message on their watches—
【You lived happily in this area, but you never imagined that a nightmare would come one night.
People with ill intentions treated you as prey and played with you in the dark, and you lost many of your companions in fear.
But darkness will always pass and dawn will always come.
During the day, you, who have been hurt, muster up your courage and decide to avenge your companions. Your inner beliefs become a guiding light, leaving the hateful hunters nowhere to hide.
Come on, dear companions!
Let's defeat the hunters! Let's be proud! 】
Freshmen: “…”
Hesitant to speak, hesitant to speak.JPG
The content and style of the notification... hard to comment on.
But apart from some difficult parts, the freshmen quickly understood the current situation—there was indeed someone behind it!
After the tragic loss of more than forty classmates, the remaining survivors learned their lesson. They did not announce the content of the notice directly in the group, but used a very obscure method.
[I am in the glacier area, ahem, students who understand what I mean please gather here.
[Positioning.JPG]
【I am in the Gobi Desert, which is a rocky beach. Students who understand me please gather here.
[Positioning.JPG]
[It’s so hot in the desert, I understand, come quickly!

…
Such inexplicable and nonsensical notifications in the freshman group made the Hunter Team very uneasy.
Eric: [The moment the sun rose I began to glow, like a light bulb.]
Gu Hongying: [Me too, it's so bright that I'm about to shed tears! ]
Hao Zhizhi: [+1]
Yu Tu: [+2]
Although the students spoke very vaguely, the four of them understood that the night was their home turf, and the day was definitely the opposite.
Gu Hongying: [At night, there are fluorescent words floating next to them, and during the day, we glow. I am really impressed by this design. I tried it, and physical shading is useless. Nothing can cover the light on me.]
Eric: [We have to find a place to hide now. Once they gather and remove all the eliminated people, the four of us will be exposed.]
If they didn't shine, the four of them would definitely blend into the crowd and take the opportunity to find out their location and then attack them at night.
Gu Hongying: [Why do you have to make it so crude! Isn't it more interesting to play spy within spy within spy? ]
After complaining a few times, none of them spoke anymore and they just concentrated on observing the surrounding environment. The light on them was too bright and without any obstruction, it could be seen from every hundred meters. The most suitable area for hiding among the four areas was indeed the rainforest area where Yu Tu was.
Hao Zhizhi: [@Yu Tu I'm already here, where are you? ]
Yu Tu: [Look up, on the tree. ]
Yu Tuhui replied to Hao Zhizhi's message with the tip of a leaf. After waiting for a while, he suddenly heard a rustling sound nearby.
He turned the leaves and saw a Ganoderma lucidum clinging to the tree trunk with its thin roots, slowly crawling towards him. One corner of the Ganoderma lucidum's cap was raised, and it was pressing a wristwatch that was familiar to Yu Tu.
Yu Tu: “???”
Leaf Earthquake.JPG
Isn't he the only one from the Plant Clan among this batch of freshmen?
Yu Tu shook the leaves, trying to communicate with Ganoderma lucidum in the way of the plant clan.
Lingzhi climbed up to the branch where Yu Tu was, and used Zhigai to lower the watch and secure it. Zhigai hit the watch keyboard and turned it around. There was only one line of words on it -
【I don’t understand the language. 】
Yu Tu: [……]
He also typed with the tip of the leaf: [Are you Hao Zhizhi? ]
Lingzhi was too lazy to type, so he shook his lid.
A glowing tea tree seedling and a glowing Ganoderma lucidum. After they sat face to face for a while, Yu Tu silently manipulated his roots and ran to the other end of the tree—the light was really too dazzling!
Although he was very curious about Hao Zhizhi's race, it was not convenient to ask under the current circumstances. Yu Tu suppressed his curiosity and waited for a while. Gu Hongying and Eric still did not come, and the group did not receive any messages from them.
Yu Tu shook off his leaves and climbed a little higher—he hung his backpack on another branch.
Yu Tu used leaves to open the backpack, rolled out a telescope from it, and then climbed to the top of the tree.
This tree is relatively tall in the vicinity. Yu Tu saw a golden light in the distance through the telescope. Behind the golden light, there was also a faint smell of... dust?
Shu Miaomiao stretched forward, trying to see what was going on through the telescope.
Suddenly, a furry claw patted him, and Yu Tu's leaves twisted 180 degrees. After seeing clearly, the branches flexibly bent into a question mark.
Why is there a snow-white...rabbit behind him?
The creature that looked like a rabbit had a familiar watch hanging around its neck and said, "I'm Hao Zhizhi. Can you lend me a telescope to see what's going on?"
She couldn't speak when she turned into Ganoderma lucidum, but it became much easier after she turned back into her original form.
Yu Tu shook the leaves, rolled up the telescope and stuffed it into her hand.
While they were talking, the golden light and smoke were getting closer and closer. The snow-white rabbit raised the telescope with its paws, and after seeing clearly... it fell silent.
Gu Hongying and Eric bumped into each other at some point. The two of them were running in the front, followed by a group of classmates with grim faces, at least thirty or forty of them. When they were almost at this place, they separated, and one of them had a string of tails falling behind him, following them in a serpentine manner, as if they were running an alternative marathon. After the four pieces of golden light gathered together, the space was as bright as a concert spotlight scene.
Hao Zhizhi: “…”
The snow-white rabbit on the treetop was a little eye-catching. A faint light flashed on her body, and she immediately turned back into the ancient-colored Ganoderma lucidum. However, she forgot that there was something in her hand. The ganoderma lucidum only obviously hooked the watch, and the telescope fell vertically and hit the head of the person in front of Gu Hongying when she passed under the tree.
The person was knocked unconscious on the spot.
The group of people chasing after Gu Hongying were so frightened that they stopped immediately. They looked at Gu Hongying who had escaped a long distance, then looked at the person who had fainted on the ground, and anger instantly filled their hearts.
"No wonder they started moving in a serpentine pattern here, it turns out they had set up a trap long ago!"
"Throwing objects from high places is not a moral code!"
"Black-hearted, black-hearted!"
"Everyone, be careful of your head and feet, there is danger!"
"Using oneself as bait! What a deep scheme!"
…
Gu Hongying, who had stepped out for a long time and looked bewildered, said: "...Huh?"
The hatred is full and something is happening outside.
