"Ai, senior, it's been three days. I've already enjoyed the scenery enough and even wrote three poems. It's already complicated for a genius like me, a genius of Special classes, to be filled with literary talent."
Du Kang said with a worried expression, "Moreover, we only picked up six copper pearls, and according to the rules, we only got six points. According to what I've seen in the past few days, I'm afraid our score is at the bottom of the list."
Xia Mang was as indifferent as before, "What are you panicking for, searching for the pearl is so tiring, didn't you follow me for a few more days? "I've been following senior for the past few days, didn't I mistreat you?"
As he said this, Du Kang's eyes lit up, and he swept the depressed look from before, "Senior chef, I want to eat roasted geese for lunch today!"
"The goose you made is so delicious."
Xia Mang suddenly gave him a headache: "Eating, eating, you only know how to eat. What do you take a goose to be? So what if you say so? "
Du Kang scratched his head and snickered. "Making wild vegetables is not bad. Senior, I feel that even if you're not a Mecha Master, you'll still be the chef."
He gave a thumbs-up.
"Come on, we haven't seen anyone else these past few days."
Xia Mang was a little confused, "How come these hundreds of people who entered the forest have disappeared like a stone that had sunk into the ocean?"
"Isn't it because we fell too far?"
Du Kang's face darkened again.
"No rush, it's still too early."
Xia Mang was extremely calm.
In the outside world, on the official website of the Wild Survival Competition, there was a ranking of individual and team points.
These were all calculated by the professional team based on the live broadcast video.
On the team competition, the elite group of quaternary was ranked first, while the elite group was ranked fourth.
And the top ten of individual points, there wasn't even a shadow of a single one of them.
This caused the leaders to be in a bad mood and punish the teachers. The teachers were not in a good mood, so the innocent students had more homework.
The Armed Services Department of the Anhuang City's Division.
, the Chief of the Armed Services, was paying close attention to the progress of the competition.
"What's the situation with the keepsake?"
Yan Wenhua looked at the person in charge of handling the real-time data.
The latter looked at the computer and reported: "Division Chief, a small amount of the golden object has been placed down, but the purple keepsake has not yet been placed down."
"Yes, everything should be done according to the plan. Pay attention to the control of the ratio of high-quality tokens. Also, you can begin to throw some melee weapons inside now."
Yan Wenhua said.
After hearing that, the correspondent asked, "Division Chief, is it too early?"
Yan Wenhua shook his head: "Just now, the monitoring center sent me a message, saying that the Dog Beast s in the Moonlight Forest had been acting too frequently, and suspected that the mating period had been brought forward, so they have to send some weapons to these children, allowing them to have the ability to deal with accidents. Remember, act in accordance to the rules and inform the air rescue team at the scene.
"Okay, Division Chief."
The communications officer quickly relayed the instructions to the on-site control room and the air rescue team.
In the forest.
Xia Mang and Du Kang were sitting on the ground, roasting a wild chicken. With their exceptional cooking skills, under the situation where there was no seasoning, Xia Mang had roasted the chicken inside out.
"Eat slower, I can't choke you to death. Look at how fat you are, why aren't you controlling your weight?"
Xia Mang scolded them while he stirred the firewood with the branches.
Du Kang took big bites of the meat as his eyes were filled with satisfaction. He mumbled, "Following senior to lose weight is an impossible task."
"Yo, you're relying on me, right?"
Xia Mang was very satisfied.
Du Kang heard this and shook his head, "No, no, no, it's my fault, it's my fault, there's no way around it. These original and tasty dishes are too delicious, they're completely different from the delicacies made from the MSG and salt from before."
"Fine, you won't feel that way if you eat for a long time."
Xia Mang did not mind.
"Eh, he threw something again."
As he said this, he suddenly looked up at the sky. A lighted flying vehicle was currently tossing a box downwards.
"It seems to be a little closer to us. Let's go take a look."
Xia Mang stood up, and according to his prediction, he walked towards the materials landing point.
Judging from its appearance, he knew that this time it was going to be a big item and not a pearl.
He was moving so fast that Du Kang hurriedly bit down on a large chunk of the chicken and hurried after him.
As expected, after arriving at their destination and searching for a while, they discovered that it was a wooden chest that had been broken from a fall. Two alloy bar s were scattered on both sides of the chest.
"This is a weapon?"
Xia Mang picked it up dumbfoundedly and gave one to Du Kang.
The latter also carefully observed him and puzzledly said, "According to the rules, shouldn't we be dropping our weapons this early?"
Xia Mang nodded his head, and said solemnly: "There might be something wrong."
The usually carefree little fatty instantly reacted when he heard this. "I understand."
"It seems like the two of us are thinking the same thing."
Xia Mang looked at him seriously.
Du Kang nodded his head, "Rules cannot be changed as you please. The only possibility is that something happened in the Moonlight Forest that exceeded the control of the organizers."
"That's right, I guess these weapons were thrown down to protect us. Since we saw them, if there are people nearby who have seen them, then they shouldn't stay here for long. Let's go."
After Xia Mang finished speaking, the two of them held onto their staffs and quickly retreated.
Sure enough, a quarter of an hour after they left, seven or eight people arrived here. They looked at the broken box and said, "Someone got in first."
"There are footprints. Chase. We have to get our weapons. If we have weapons, we will have the advantage."
At the same time, similar alloy bar s were being thrown at many places in the Moonlight Forest, causing a small portion of the people to break away from the state of bare-handed.
However, those who did not get their hands on the weapons went crazy and started to search everywhere for those who possessed their own weapons. Hence, the scene of them trying to seize the weapons from others began to erupt.
Gradually, they began to enter the climax of the first round of eliminations.
Xia Mang and Du Kang were quickly travelling through the forest, listening for any movements around them, while looking for places to hide.
Needless to say, Du Kang's plump body actually moved without the slightest hesitation, which caused Xia Mang to have a whole new level of respect for him.
"He should be able to rest for a while."
When they reached a cove, they stopped.
Xia Mang pricked up his ears and listened for a while, then vigilantly lowered his voice: "If I said that someone was coming closer to us, would you believe me?"
"Huh?"
Du Kang jumped in fright, "No way, who would follow us?"
"Hmph, if my guess is correct, it should be the person who wants this weapon."
Xia Mang smiled.
"Then what should we do, senior?"
Du Kang panicked, "I'm not very good at fighting, my level of evolution is only 1.3, and I'm not good at using this kind of dog beating stick."
"Damn, the level of evolution is the same as before."
Xia Mang was speechless in his heart, and patiently explained: "Didn't the rules state that you had not seen it before? "It's always been this kind of stick that's thrown in competitions, because long sticks are considered blunt weapons. When you fight, it's not easy for you to lose your life, and you also have both offense and defense, making it very suitable for competitions."
"Fine."
Du Kang nodded in understanding.
With regards to the upcoming situation, Xia Mang was extremely relieved. There were only a few opponents that could pose a threat to him in this competition, so he couldn't possibly meet them so coincidentally, right?
After thinking about this, he suddenly stopped and said, "Just wait here. If anyone wants a weapon, let them have it with their own abilities."
"Ah?!"
Du Kang's mouth dropped open in surprise.
Xia Mang chuckled: "Since people are bullying us, how long are we going to hide for?"
Not long after he finished talking, the sound of footsteps could be heard not too far away.
"One, two, three, four … "A total of eight people."
Du Kang quickly counted the number of visitors and could not help but close his eyes as he cried out, "Looks like I'm going to be eliminated."
"This is too tragic. It's only been a few days, and I'm about to die. I've let down my parents, teacher, friends, Third and Sixth Aunt, all of their ardent hopes and nurturing to the end of their lives."
Xia Mang glared at him: What are you howling for, die!
Du Kang said with grievance, "It's more or less like death."
While he was shouting, the other side had already arrived in front of them.
"Ah, so it's a genius mecha pilot."
One of them laughed: "What a coincidence, after entering the Moonlight Forest, the first time we made a move, we met people who are like the sun in the sky."
"It's worth it, it's too worth it, haha."
The others also roared with laughter.
They looked like they did not place Xia Mang in their eyes at all.
The latter ignored him and asked calmly, "I'm just curious, how did you manage to keep up with us?"
The other party pointed to the footprints that led to Du Kang's location and said, "I didn't even notice such an obvious footprint. Your friend here is too heavy, hahaha."
This call was filled with mockery, causing Du Kang's face to turn red and his ears to become red, ashamed and ashamed.
"Alright, I know the reason. You guys can begin."
Xia Mang took a step forward and waved his hand at the few of them.
"Ugh …"
Seeing him in such a state, the bald guy who was the first to speak became uncertain: "Xia Mang, I know you are a genius Battle Mecha Master, but that does not mean you are a genius warrior. Recently, you have brought honor to our Anhuang City.
"We won't eliminate you."
After he finished speaking, his companions also agreed, "Right, place the sticks on the ground. We won't eliminate you."
Hearing these words, Xia Mang did not know whether to laugh or cry. The other party had come in full fury, but why was he so friendly now?
But no matter what, the nature of robbery did not change.
Thinking of this, he shook his head. "This staff is very important to us. If you want to take it, then please do so."
"Uh, if that's the case, then don't blame us for being impolite. Brothers, let's go."
After the bald boy finished speaking, he was the first to rush towards Xia Mang.
Upon seeing this, the latter hesitated for a moment. Then, without using a weapon, he threw away his long rod and went up to meet it with his bare hands.
Standing at the back, Du Kang trembled in fear. He felt as though his legs were filled with lead, but it felt as though his legs were weighing a thousand pounds, making it impossible for him to move a single step.
