Chapter 157 Confirmation
Several people packed up the supplies in the camp and prepared to move towards the central area as usual.
Because the situation was really strange, Xie Wenyu asked them to release their spirit bodies and be alert to any unusual movements around them at all times.
It was not until we had walked for more than ten kilometers that we finally found traces of other military academies.
"It's someone from N54." Sheng Jiayi said.
After the "indissoluble bond" with N54 in the last two games, they have become more familiar with several of the opponent's extraordinary people.
I recognized it from a distance.
The other party seemed to be searching the houses on both sides and did not realize that he had been targeted.
Xie Wenyu made a gesture, and Qiao Zhiyu and Sheng Jiayi followed him and approached at a rapid speed.
Several people from the N54 Military Academy were caught off guard and trapped in the encirclement.
The SS-level Rattlesnake commander's face froze, and he couldn't help but wail in his heart that his team was so unlucky.
"Fuck, how come we meet again..." The SSS-level Leopard Transcendent had his emotions written all over his face.
They had been eliminated by the Central Military Academy home team in two consecutive games, and they didn't expect to meet them again in the third game so soon.
"For the sake of us both being from the Federal Military Academy, could you please show some mercy?" N54's commander said with a bitter face. "It's only the second day..."
Xie Wenyu took two steps forward calmly and asked, "Did you encounter any strange beasts along the way?"
The other party was stunned when he heard this, and a look of confusion appeared on his face. He shook his head and said, "No."
Xie Wenyu and Qiao Zhiyu exchanged glances, and both felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
"We can spare your entire team, but we need one of you to press the emergency button."
Xie Wenyu's expression was gentle, but he made this request without any objection.
This was the plan that the few of them had discussed before they set out in the morning.
All other channels for contacting the event team have been tried.
The only way that has not been tried is to have the competition organizers send aircraft to pick up the eliminated players.
Since they had never met anyone from other military academies before, they certainly didn't want to try it on their own teammates.
Of course, eliminating them directly can also help determine whether they can contact the tournament team, but...
"Why?"
Several people from the N54 Military Academy looked puzzled and asked this question in unison.
"I need to confirm whether the safety cover can be used normally." Xie Wenyu answered their questions considerately.
N54's commander seemed to realize something. "You think...?"
"Just try it and you'll know."
"Then can you guarantee that after we try, you won't eliminate the rest of us?" The N54 commander confirmed with gritted teeth.
"I promise." Xie Wenyu replied.
The people from N54 Military Academy looked at each other and discussed in a low voice.
It seemed as if he had some suspicions about the anomalies in the arena, and facing these people from the Central Military Academy, he had no capital to resist.
Finally, the SS-class jellyfish mecha master in the team stepped forward.
In full view of everyone, he ruthlessly pressed the emergency call button on the communicator.
However, one second... two seconds... three seconds passed.
The safety shield that should have popped out instantly didn't move at all.
There was no sound of approaching aircraft in the air.
There wasn't even a notification of elimination.
Everyone looked shocked and confused.
The N54 commander stepped forward personally and pressed the distress button on his teammate's wrist again in disbelief.
Still no response.
"What's going on?!"
The expressions on Xie Wenyu and others' faces were not good either.
Although I had some expectations in my mind, when this hypothesis was actually verified, it only showed that the situation was very serious.
"Something went wrong with the league, and now we need to get everyone together as soon as possible."
He said in a deep voice.
"How could it be..." a member of N54 murmured, "Can't they see what's going on inside us?"
"I'm afraid what they saw was not the same picture as what we actually experienced."
Xie Wenyu quickly guessed the situation on the starship.
If someone could really see it, it would be impossible that they would not have any reaction until now.
This also indicates a very bad possibility -
There are traitors in the competition group and even in the top leadership of the Federal Empire.
But because the current situation is not suitable for analysis, he did not make this speculation public.
"So what should we do now?"
N54 and the others were a little panicked, and spontaneously regarded Xie Wenyu, who was the calmest at the moment, as the backbone.
At this time, there is naturally no need to fight to the death for the league ranking.
After all, the rescue workers are nowhere to be seen. If something really happens, you may lose your life.
"Let's go to this nearby combat readiness point first." Xie Wenyu zoomed out the map and pointed it to the other party. "I need to confirm one thing."
The people at N54 Military Academy had no objection, nor did they dare to have any.
Everyone headed straight for their destination.

Yu Zhi sat on Langjue.
I kept thinking about the plot of the book in my mind.
According to the contents of the book, the third team competition should have been held normally.
After taking Celes' fruit, Yu Yu's healing talent evolved, allowing the main team of the Central Military Academy to successfully win first place.
It wasn't until the awards ceremony that a group of villains jumped out and tried to cause damage.
But now it should be because she stole the show in the second game and attracted widespread federal coverage.
This created a butterfly effect, causing those people hiding in the dark to come out and cause trouble early.
Since time and events have changed, she currently cannot judge what means the other party will use.
but……
"Wen Yu——" she called out.
Xie Wenyu turned around when he heard the voice and walked towards her quickly.
"Zhizhi, what's wrong?"
Yu Zhi frowned slightly, "Yesterday when I was queuing up to board the aircraft, a member of the Empire's event team wanted to get my autograph."
"But Xiao Wang stopped him. But when I passed him, I smelled a strange floral scent."
"It just... feels a little out of place."
Adhering to the principle of rather killing someone by mistake than letting the guilty go, Yu Zhi chose to tell Xie Wenyu about this matter that made her feel a little uncomfortable.
After Xie Wenyu listened attentively, he also took it seriously.
He leaned over and sniffed Yu Zhi's collar, waist, and wrists.
But nothing unusual was found.
Even when Yu Zhi was hesitating whether she was too suspicious, Chen Wang quickly approached.
Yinlong’s strength is not his sense of smell, but he was the one who witnessed the scene that Yu Zhi described on the starship.
"Xiao Zhi..." Chen Wang's gaze turned to her legs clamped on the side of Lang Jue, and then slowly moved to her feet.
Yu Zhi pursed her lips and let the other party kneel on one knee with a serious expression, lowering his head and carefully touching her from her calf all the way to the instep of her foot.
The people from N54 Military Academy were far away and could not hear the previous conversation.
Now that Yu Zhi and the others had stopped, he turned back to look.
What you see is this not-so-"usual" scene.
"Ah...is this something we can see?"
The leopard transcendent was stunned.
