Chapter 50
Although the official blog announced the Asian competition area, the Bermuda Triangle is still very large, starting from Miami in the west, extending to Puerto Rico in the south, and ending in Bermuda in the north. No one knows where the contestants will start or end. Even when a few people arrived at the airport, the tickets they received only said New York.
Five people sat in the waiting room. The most restless were Lin Zhinan and the little monk. The former looked around, wringing his hands nervously, his face wrinkled. The latter, with his eyes shining, grinned idiotically as he held his ticket.
"Brother, I'm going abroad." The little monk was so excited. When he was a child, his biggest wish was to go down the mountain. When he was sixteen, his master was finally willing to let him go down the mountain. He was not happy yet, and now he could go abroad.
"Well, I haven't been abroad for several years." Chu Huaiqin has been returning to China at the age of seventeen and has been devoted to making money. He hasn't relaxed for a long time. He is also looking forward to this trip.
"Brother, why are we going to New York?" Lin Zhinan tried to speak, and indeed he was not so nervous anymore. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Also, are we flying to Puerto Rico?"
After the official Weibo released the venue, she searched for a lot of information online and thought that she might start there.
Chu Huaiqin stretched his legs, put his hands behind his head, looked at the ceiling and replied, "We don't have a direct flight. We have to fly to New York and then transfer. I guess the destination should be Bermuda."
"I'm familiar with Bermuda. I've been there for a trip. Huaiqin, let me tell you..." Su Huaichen took over and started talking about how beautiful the scenery he saw in Bermuda was, and how hot the beauties and handsome guys were. He talked with saliva flying, but the only thing he relied on was that the live broadcast had not started yet.
The Asian region has an official website, located on Yanwang, where the live broadcast will be conducted. Official websites of various countries will also broadcast the event live, but who doesn’t want to participate in this kind of Asian event on the first platform, so many people are anxious and angry.
"Save the child, I want to see."
"I'm begging for a way to get over the wall! I heard they're going to block our team from the global competition. I was hoping to fight them for 300 rounds. Without me, we'd be missing a great general!"
"I've been working hard to learn curse words from several countries lately. Are you going to let me swallow them all like that? I'll choke to death."
"My fifteen Chinese language teams are all organized. You guys, give it some strength!"
Although the livestream hadn't even started yet, word had spread that fans from other countries had already arrived at the 'battlefield', with fighting already underway in many regions. Everyone rushed to the official Weibo account to inquire about the situation. Even the official website of Chu Huaiqin's Black Fan Club was overwhelmed with people asking soul-searching questions: "You're the official fan club, can't you think of a solution? You can't be a Black Fan Club before and continue to be a Black Fan Club now?"
On the Internet, everyone was running from one official blog to another, scrolling from one web page to another, crying from one forum to another, their mouths agape with anxiety. The issue was so popular that out of forty entries on Weibo, they occupied more than twenty, but there was still no response from all parties.
"Do I have to fight against my compatriots because I learned the national curses of fifteen countries?"
Someone had no choice but to say this.
Just when everyone was about to give up, the official Wild Survival blog suddenly sent out a link. The blog post stated that this was a specially opened channel that could directly lead to the live broadcast room of Yanwang's "Wild Survival".
Everyone was immediately excited. This was great! Even if it was just the live broadcast room, they wouldn't want to go anywhere else! You know, walls exist to protect others!
Everyone happily logged in through the link, ready for a big battle. At this time, Chu Huaiqin and others also started to check in and board the plane. They were accompanied by the filming crew led by Director Huang. Director Li had already arrived at the destination to prepare.
After flying from China to New York for about thirteen hours, everyone was exhausted when they got off the plane. The camera crew was right on top of them. The five of them were stunned and waved to the live broadcast room. However, because of the long flight, everyone was very tired, so they went to the hotel next door to eat and sleep in one go.
Everyone in the official website live broadcast room was laughing and their happy mood could not be suppressed.
The broadcast settings for the Asian Games are the same as those for the domestic games. The official A1 live broadcast room is the main live broadcast room, and the chief director team decides who gets the camera. Then there are fifteen sub-frequency live broadcast rooms belonging to different countries. The main live broadcast room has not started yet, but several sub-frequency rooms have started live broadcasting, including several next to China.
The livestream in China is the most popular, with over a million viewers already – and that's before it even starts. Once it does, you can imagine the excitement. Many people from other countries have snuck in to take a look, only to run back in terror to report back, shouting, "They're crushing us with just a wave of humanity. They're really bad."
"Even if millions of people come, they can't get into the stadium to help. As long as we can win, it will be a victory with fewer people. Then, haha!"
Many people in China went to see it and reported back: ...
The internet was bustling that day. The next day, Chu Huaiqin and his team got up, had breakfast, and then boarded the plane. This time the journey was shorter, arriving at Bermuda Airport in more than two hours. After they got off the plane, they found out that almost all the competition areas had gathered.
The Bermuda Archipelago is made up of 300 small islands, the main island boasting a highly developed economy and a popular tourist destination. However, they weren't here for a vacation; it was merely a transit point. Sure enough, at noon, the rally sounded, and the fifteen national teams boarded a small ship. Everyone gathered in the lobby, each receiving a direct translation earpiece.
Coordinating the events of fifteen countries would allow us to hold a small Asian Games. Fortunately, we had the experience of the past five years so that we were not in a rush when the peak period came this year.
At this time, the official A1 live broadcast platform was officially launched. The first thing you see is blue sky and white clouds, and then a large ship from an aerial view. The contestants are slowly stepping into the ship. The audience in the live broadcast room stared with wide eyes looking for the participating team from their own country. The barrage of comments flew up, and various languages were mixed together, which made everyone dazzled. Among them, someone suggested that it would be better to use English. He was immediately attacked by everyone, and the person who made this suggestion was scared to apologize repeatedly.
Some people lamented that it hasn’t started yet, and once it starts, the grand occasion will be unimaginable.
Seventy-five people gathered, with the director team standing in the front, the assistant director at the back, more than thirty people, and three people standing in the front, who should be the chief director team they had known before.
"Hello everyone, I'm a director from China, my last name is Li, and I'm one of the chief directors of the Asian Games."
"Hello everyone, I'm a director from Japan, my last name is Li, and I'm one of the chief directors of the Asian Games."
"Hello everyone, I'm a director from the Peacock Country, my last name is Brahmin, and I'm one of the chief directors of the Asian Games."
The three directors all spoke in the language of their respective countries. Now that everyone is wearing direct translation earphones, there is no language barrier. The smiles on the faces of those who know that their country is the chief director of this event are different.
These three directors were well-known to many celebrities and celebrities at the event, and are all frequent winners of major international film awards. Director Li's cinematography is majestic and imposing, Director Gong's meticulous and rigorous approach, and Director Brahmin's passionate and unrestrained style. Each has his own unique characteristics and is highly regarded internationally.
After the three people introduced themselves, Director Li stepped forward and first greeted everyone. Then his expression turned serious and he began to talk about the rules of the game.
This year, like previous years, the national teams consisted of five players each. They were now heading to the starting point for the race, which would officially begin upon arrival. The destination was Lookout Island in the Bermuda Islands. On that small island stood a lookout tower. Whoever could first retrieve the token from the lighthouse would be the winner. The Lookout Tower Token was their entry ticket to the global competition, of which only fifteen were available, with winners going to first, second, and third place.
But before that, you need to obtain two other items. One is the dagger, which is hidden within a nautical mile of the starting point. The other is the boat. The starting point is still some distance away from Lookout Island, so you need a boat to get there. The boat is hidden in ten islands near the starting point.
Of course, you don’t have to take these two things, as long as you can land on the island smoothly.
"Are the things inside the token different?" someone heard the hidden meaning in Director Li's words and asked.
Director Li didn't respond to the person, but continued to explain the next round. There were three ways to be eliminated: First, pressing the SOS button automatically forfeits the competition. Second, if the production team determines your life is in danger, they will perform a forced rescue and automatically forfeit. Third, losing your watch.
Everyone understands the first and second points, but the third one is confusing. If you lose your watch, it's considered obsolete. What does that mean? If you wear it on your wrist and don't take it off, how can you lose your watch? Unless someone steals it.
Chu Huaiqin and Xia Entang glanced at each other and looked at the contestants on the scene. Apart from celebrities, there were ordinary people here. As public figures, celebrities need to maintain their image in front of the camera, and ordinary people have more room to operate. This is why more and more ordinary people have entered the competition in recent years. Many times, they are here to help celebrity artists enter the finals.
There was whispering at the scene, and everyone's eyes were scanning the entire place, as if from this moment on, they had begun to lock on their target.
The live broadcast room was also boiling. Was this the beginning of a fight between everyone?
Coach Li seemed to know what everyone was thinking and continued, "Survival in the wild is brutal, but we also have our own rules. No harm is allowed. Otherwise, the entire team of five will be disqualified. We also have professional personnel following everyone. If anyone is found to be causing harm, they will be subdued and removed from the competition area."
Director Li's words undoubtedly silenced the thoughts of those with dark intentions. Director Li then stepped back, and Director Gong stepped forward to speak. Director Gong was a serious old man, and he first glanced at everyone before continuing.
Each person wears a watch with three small dials: one for the calendar, the second for the compass, and the third for the drugs. The five lines represent the five drugs. These drugs are for emergency use and will not be replenished once used. Furthermore, they must not be used on other people. Violators will be disqualified from the competition.
The watch case has five knobs, one for adjusting the time, the second for calling for help (abstaining), the third for releasing drugs, and the fourth for lighting, people, and calls (limited to communication within the team).
After Director Gong finished speaking, Director Brahmin came forward to explain the rules. It was another long speech. Whether it was on site or in the live broadcast room, the longer you listened, the more difficult the task seemed. At the end, the doctor came in and gave everyone an injection. This was to prevent possible diseases. From this, you can see the cruelty of this competition.
"No one is allowed to take their luggage down. We will provide clothes and blankets." Director Brahmin waved his hand, and a group of people came in with a backpack. Each person was given one. Many people couldn't wait to open it, but their faces changed when they saw what was inside.
"Brother, this is much worse than our domestic competition. We only have two sets of camouflage uniforms, two pairs of shoes, a blanket, and even no raincoat." The little monk was shaking this thing, it was so light that it made people want to cry. He felt that Director Huang had been too good to them before.
"Without a pot or fire, how are we supposed to cook?" Su Huaichen shook his head, but then he looked at Lin Zhinan and Xia Entang as if he had thought of something. "One of you can make fire by drilling wood, and the other can make fire with stones. Whether we can have cooked food depends on you."
The contestants from Japan and Korea standing behind them also noticed that there was no fire, but they were not worried. They were used to eating raw food. This place was near the sea, so they could eat only raw food until the end of the competition.
"It's not enough to just know how to make fire. Don't forget, it might rain." Chu Huaiqin felt a headache when he saw this simple thing.
"What should we do then?" the little monk exclaimed.
"I'll see if I can find the materials to make a tinderbox then." Chu Huaiqin had already begun to mentally plan what he would need for the entire route. For a moment, he fell into deep thought.
Su Huaichen wanted to say something, but Xia En pulled him back and told him to shut up.
"We are about to reach the starting point. Let's give our teams a name!" Director Li said with a kind smile, which made everyone who was nervous relax a lot.
"White Tiger Team." Han Guo spoke first.
"The Crested Ibis Army." Next is Japan.
"We are the Shenniu Team." It was Peacock Nation who spoke.
"Sheep, monkey..."
The sounds came one after another. Maybe it was because they were trying to survive in the wild, so everyone gave themselves animal names. After each team announced their name, the split-screen live broadcast room of Yanwang's team also changed its name, and there was also a team declaration, and its animal graphics were added. For a moment, it looked like entering an animal channel.
"Let's call ourselves the Raptors! Ahhh, can someone pass on my message?"
"The White Tiger belongs to us, how could it be stolen? I'm so angry!"
"Let's call ourselves the Rabbit Team. Even rabbits bite when they're angry."
"The Canglang Team, this is great!" "Not impressive at all. I think we should be different from them. Stop being animals and act like human beings!"
The livestream was buzzing with activity. Chu Huaiqin, Xia Entropy, and the others were all chattering away. Su Huaichen had chosen animals from the ferocious beasts, and his descriptions were similar to those in the livestream, all dragons, tigers, wolves, and the like. Lin Zhinan, however, had managed to come up with a phoenix. The monk suggested calling it the Acala Vidyaraja Team—they were the War Buddhas! Xia Entropy suggested calling it the Qing Entropy Team.
Su Huaichen and others: ...
Chu Huaiqin: ...
"Let's call them the Rolling Team. They are our national treasure, both cute and powerful. Even though they eat bamboo, they are just too lazy to eat meat." Chu Huaiqin expressed his thoughts.
Su Huaichen looked at Chu Huaiqin strangely, "Are you talking about yourself?"
Chu Huaiqin: ...
The live broadcast in China was changed to the "GongGong Team" with a panda as the avatar, and the slogan was, "Don't look at me eating bamboo, I'm just too lazy to eat meat."
As soon as the name of the live broadcast room was changed, the barrage on the screen was cleared for a moment. After a while, everyone burst into laughter, thinking that the name and declaration were too domineering, and he was indeed worthy of being his brother.
The team was officially formed, and finally Director Li stood up and said with a smile: "Then we will send you here."
Only then did everyone realize that the ship had stopped.
"You have one month. I'll be waiting for you on Lookout Island. I wish you good luck."
The author has a note: Everything in this story is fictional, including the Bermuda Triangle. If there is a conflict between reality and the story, the story takes precedence. Also, the wall and the country setting are all fictional. Thank you.
Regarding the setting of the watch drug, the original setting was a pistol, but after thinking about it, I changed it and set it on a watch. This coincided with Conan, so it was also borrowed from "Detective Conan"
