Through the understanding, he found out that Du Kang was actually a senior year Special classes student.
Originally, he did not plan to participate in the competition, but under the intense stimulation of the Virtual Reality System, his brain got excited and he submitted the registration materials two days before the competition.
According to the rules, even if he didn't participate, he would still participate.
As long as the information was submitted, it would be considered as having used up the only chance to participate.
He had no choice but to brace himself.
However, due to various factors, such as strength, he did not manage to get on the list of fifteen elite students. In fact, many of the lone rangers this time around were from the first and third year of high school.
However, most of these people had only one or two friends who signed up at the same time.
Coincidentally, Du Kang didn't.
This time, there were only four people participating in the competition for the first year in high school. Liu Xueqing belonged to the elite group and his relationship with the other two was not very good either.
Hence, when he saw Xia Mang who was by himself, it was as if he had found the place where his organization belonged.
"But, my strength is also very average. Look, I also failed to choose an elite team."
Xia Mang opened his hands.
Du Kang didn't mind at all, "Senior, even if your level of genetic evolution isn't that great, as the only high school student in the history of Anhuang City, you must have a good brain. In this kind of competition, sometimes brain is more important than personal strength."
As he said that, he suddenly cried and shook Xia Mang's arm: "Senior, please accept this little brother. Although this little brother doesn't have much skill, carrying some tea and water for you is still easy for me to run around with. Moreover, the two of us will have something to take care of together."
"To tell you the truth, I left my mom. I couldn't sleep at night, so I'm scared just thinking about it."
"Senior, do you really have the heart to watch this lively and passionate junior high school student of mine suffer from mental weakness because of insomnia? The Buddha family has the clouds, saving a person's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda ~ "
Hearing his pleading for help, Xia Mang could only agree to it. "Alright, but I can't guarantee your safety. If you get tricked by me, I won't be responsible."
"Okay."
Du Kang shouted, "Senior, don't worry. I won't be surprised that I've been tricked by you!"
"Huh?"
Xia Mang's face was filled with astonishment, why did he feel that what he said was not right, and was actually scolding someone so much?
Du Kang also realized this and hurriedly corrected himself, "No, no, no. I will never blame senior."
"Fine."
Xia Mang nodded helplessly. He suddenly felt that this junior brother was really heartless.
The place they were waiting for was a small plaza outside the Moonlight Forest.
This was the meeting point of Anhuang City, and the boundary point was Moonlight Forest.
Before long, there were already a few hundred people gathered here. Among them, there was no lack of strong opponents that Xia Mang had previously seen from the records.
For example, the few famous young geniuses in quaternary.
"Senior, I heard we need to sign some death and injury agreements later. Is the competition dangerous?"
Du Kang couldn't help but ask when he saw such a huge scene unfolding before him.
"This agreement was signed more to prevent accidents."
Xia Mang patiently explained: The truth is, during the first three times, there were no major accidents. During the tournament, there would be a patrol car in the sky to ensure our safety, and the battle uniform that we were wearing could send back a video signal at any time.
"So, we only need to carefully avoid the fierce beasts in the forest. If it wasn't for the special circumstances, there shouldn't be any accidents."
As he was speaking, a circular shaped drone flew over their heads, and a deep male voice sounded from it.
Hello everyone, welcome to this year's Wilderness Survival Competition. The rules of the competition are the same as the previous years, you will need to survive in the forest for thirty days, during which the organizers will throw in special talismans into the forest. Your mission is to maintain a normal life in the forest while gathering as many of these talismans as possible.
"This is the appearance of the keepsake."
As his voice fell, a huge projection suddenly appeared in midair.
The projection was just a normal round bead, nothing special about it.
Everyone raised their heads, memorizing the appearance of this item. The round flying ship continued, "The object's diameter is about ten centimeters, and its colors are divided into gold, silver, copper and very few purplish. Among them, one has 10 points of gold, one has 5 points of silver, one has 1 point of copper and one has 50 points of purple."
"The higher the level, the fewer beads you will drop. You have to remember this point."
"There are no special restrictions on how you can obtain the pearl. As long as it is within the boundaries of the law, you can use any method you like to obtain the pearl."
At this point, the competitors' faces revealed eager expressions.
The round plane also said, "Alright everyone, the death contract has been sent to everyone's private mailbox. After reading it, click on the confirmation button to enter the Moonlight Forest!"
Just as he finished speaking …
Almost at the same time, several hundred people received an agreement document, many of them immediately pressed confirm without even looking, and then rushed to the entrance. There were dozens of soldiers standing guard at the entrance, and a gap appeared between the two alloy railings that led to the inner part of the forest. On both sides of the gap, a foreign body scanning device was placed, and after everyone received their competition uniforms, they had to confirm that they didn't bring any items in through this device.
Xia Mang slowly read the agreement and pressed confirm. Then, he and Du Kang put on the special competition uniform and entered the Moonlight Forest.
In addition, each person received a piece of cloth about the size of two square meters. This piece of cloth was specially used to store the competition's keepsakes.
Just as the two of them crossed the gap in the railings, they heard the identity chip's system notification sound. After using the brainwave to enter, they discovered that other than their personal identity information that could normally enter an accident, all other functions were sealed and unable to be used.
He had already expected something like this.
Because the competition was broadcasted live, it would be too easy to cheat if the organizers didn't completely cut off contact with the outside world.
"Let's go find the pearl."
Xia Mang looked at the rescue button on his battle uniform before walking into the forest with Du Kang.
After a few steps, they saw a waterfall that flowed down from the sky. The air here was especially cool, with dense water particles floating around. They took a deep breath, and their noses were filled with the fragrance of wild flowers and fresh leaves.
In general, the Moonlight Forest was rather ancient with complex internal topography. There were many mountain creeks and vegetation, and karst rocks could be seen everywhere.
At this moment, the two people who were enjoying the beautiful scenery had long since been eliminated by the large group. Looking around, they could not see any other figures, even the sounds they made were quite far away.
"Senior, if you don't leave now, all the beads will be taken away."
Du Kang, who had been immersed in the world's pleasures, suddenly came to a realization.
Xia Mang laughed and shook his head: "The competition has 30 days. Why are you in such a hurry?
As he spoke, he unhurriedly clasped his hands behind his back and took in the scenery along the way.
However, Du Kang was extremely anxious. "But senior, our strength is already relatively weak. As for the good stuff in the future, when will it be our turn?"
"So."
Xia Mang smiled as he looked at him, "Now that the competition is about to start, and is the most intense time for the fights, we are so weak, so how can we snatch it away. We might as well cherish this opportunity and experience the magnificence of the karst landscape, at least we can write a travel diary when we return, and this trip will not be in vain."
Du Kang seemed to have been convinced, and nodded in deep agreement. "That seems to be the case."
He couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise, "Senior's mind is indeed clear and her taste is elegant. This kind of disregarding of the upper class gives her the feeling of being a hermit of flowers, yes, yes, a kind of chrysanthemum, not competing with the spring, only reporting spring's arrival. When the mountain flowers are no more, she laughs in the bushes, how pure she is." ""
Listening to his blabbering nonsense, Xia Mang, who was walking in front, felt her knees go weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
Chrysanthemum... What kind of nonsense was that? And what did it have to do with that last word?
He could not help but turn around and look at his thoughtless junior brother and said earnestly, "Du Kang, I have my doubts as to how you managed to become the Special classes of our school. You are not competing for the Spring Festival, and only wrote 'Spring's Newspaper' as chrysanthemums?"
After Du Kang heard this, he pondered for a long time before muttering to himself, "It doesn't seem to be …" "Ai, who cares? That's what I mean after all. If my meaning is good, then I'll be satisfied."
He immediately imitated Xia Mang with an intoxicated expression, walking with his hands behind his back while enjoying the scenery.
Looking at his back, Xia Mang's face was filled with black lines. How could such a shocking and quiet teammate agree to his request in the first place?
A wise man can lose something.
Thinking of this, he could not help but sigh. There was only one sentence floating around in his mind. If he had known earlier, he would have regretted it.
What the two of them did not know was that their performance had been seen by the live broadcast station. It was the interior hall of the round aircraft. There were hundreds of screens displaying everyone's images.
Dozens of live broadcasters were attentively sifting through the more interesting and interesting scenes that were uploaded to the live broadcast.
Coincidentally, Xia Mang and Du Kang had become the "lucky children" that had been selected since the start of the competition.
"Pfft, hahaha, these two treasures are too funny."
Laughter and laughter like that rose in many corners of the city.
Du Kang's image was also seen by many of the audience who were watching the competition.
In front of the television.
Xia Mang's father looked at all of this in shock. He muttered to himself, "Is my son going to act out some skit or participate in the tournament?"
In the conference room of Anhuang First Middle School, the leaders were all speechless.
Just the beginning, these two treasures were already on fire.
Fan Xuezeng couldn't help but laugh and shake his head, "These two children, seriously, not only are they not fighting over the pearls, they even have the mood to bicker and admire the flowers."
