Recap
Oh, so this is an infinite horror?!
___
After all, they just met, and this student from R country is not brainless. He picked up something unimportant, stopped talking, and then wanted to pull Ji Xinghai into the group.
Of course, there is no doubt that he is the leader of the team, and Ji Xinghai is at most a younger brother* to him.
*(follower)
The student from R country also gave a good reason. He used to be the captain of the school baseball team. Later, he participated in many “extreme survival challenges” organized by civilian organizations and achieved good results.
Compared to the people on the Y continent who are said to survive by farming every day, he feels that his martial arts and knowledge are enough to lead this team.
While speaking, he also showed his biceps that he obtained from gulping protein powder.
[No, are men from R country so shameless?] The viewers in Ninth State couldn’t understand it. You are a person who’s just been, and yet you dare to let your rescuer be your younger brother and work hard without complaint? Where is your face?
People from R country are just fucking around, making a fuss. The suffocating arrogance of those ungrateful people, tut tut tut.
[Please do not associate personal behavior with race; I, for one, am not that kind of person!]
Although the viewers of R country do not trust the reliability of Ji Xinghai’s axe even after he used it to kill two abnormal creatures, they still acknowledge that he is very cautious, and his observation ability and logical reasoning are both top notch, so forming a team is actually beneficial to this big-breasted and brainless student from their country.
But this guy is too arrogant; even a good-tempered gentleman does not want to form a team with a guy who has his nose in the air.
[Heh, shut up, idiot.]
And the viewers in Ninth State, without exception, strongly opposed it.
With the brainless and arrogant appearance of the R-country student, forming a team with him is simply poverty alleviation! It is useless for real work, and it may even hinder their student.
[No way! Who wants to care for a leech? ]
“Why? We just met for the first time; do you trust me so much?” Ji Xinghai said coldly, deliberately weakening the tension, and with his newly adult face, he is as harmless as a child in the white world.
“I don’t trust you, but I believe in your identity as a student. We always have to go back; cooperation is the most beneficial. Think about it; so many people are watching us.”
“…Oh.” Ji Xinghai rubbed the wooden handle of the axe with his fingertips.
He was like a quiet ocean at this moment, with calm waves on the surface, and no one knew the surging under the current.
‘Go back’,’so many people are watching’.
So many people are watching…
There is also a live broadcast element in this game.
“Ah, that is…”
Ji Xinghai suddenly looked at the door, and the R country student was startled, thinking that the hunter appeared, and subconsciously turned his head to look. He only heard a sound of wind, and then there was a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and then he fell on the table unconscious.
Ji Xinghai slowly retracted his outstretched hand and touched the axe with the other hand again.
Thank you, now I know that ‘so many people are watching’.
Ji Xinghai didn’t kill him; he just took off the student’s watch, tied his hands and feet with the hemp rope in the corner, and then dragged him away by the collar.
He looked tall and thin yet still has strength. The tall and strong R-country student was dragged all the way to the secret hatch by him, and the traces of dragging overlapped the previous tracks.
The hatch was still open, and he loosened his hand, the student went down headfirst, knocking on the wooden ladder all the way down. Then, with a creak, the hatch slowly closed, and along with the light source. Ji Xinghai’s emotionless voice echoed in the basement.
“I don’t team up with fools.”
As the secret door closed, everything ended. Ji Xinghai picked up his rattan basket, and the dried mushrooms inside stayed there quietly. Tears flowed silently, and its whole body exuded a fascinating “fragrance.”.
After thinking about it, he picked up the rattan basket and walked towards the water tank. His hands were moving, and his mind was also working.
This person gave a lot of mixed information.
This is a strange world, specially set up for a certain purpose. There are “students” like them who are specially selected. It is estimated that they are chosen from various countries, but the specific number of participants is unknown. There may not be many.
After achieving a certain goal, they can “go back” and return to the normal and orderly civilized world.
The outside world can see this world through some channels. The biggest possibility is that their perspective is fixed on their “students.”At this moment, perhaps countless eyes are looking at him.
Will this be an entertainment infinite horror world?
What are these people coming in here for? And what are the people outside the field expecting from them?
Ji Xinghai’s mouth was smiling.
The moment when the student turned his head, the light illuminated his figure, he flipped the sharp end of his ax with his hand. At the moment of seeing the truth of this world, Ji Xinghai decided to be a ‘good guy’.
People who were watching him idly and might’ve even left comments, after confirming that he was a ‘good guy with a bottom line’, suddenly discovered the ‘truth’, their expressions must be very interesting.
When you use others for entertainment, you must have the awareness of being entertained~
Oh my, look at our brother Hai’s temper; how can he be so likable? Before leaving, he showed a series of traditional skills from country D, this truly is our student.
How could the viewers know what kind of non-human evil tastes were hidden under that calm expression? They only cheered excitedly.
The sudden reversal of the situation brought extraordinary shock. If anyone were to use words to describe it, it is probably that it has changed from an ordinary plot to the highlight clip that editors like most.
This is indeed a global entertainment festival.
The Hungry Academy is responsible for writing the script, the students are responsible for interpreting the truth, and the viewers are responsible for being happy.
“He did a great job—very, very good.” Of course, the narrator couldn’t say “cool” like the ordinary viewers, but she said “very” twice in a row, which showed that she admired Ji Xinghai’s actions very much.
He was so sophisticated and decisive at the beginning of the instance. Is this a random newcomer? Are all the newcomers these days monsters?
“The right decision, the right approach, everything was implemented correctly!
“The instance world is very dangerous. The weakness, kindness, and naivety of the students mean that they cannot bear the cruelty of this world, which is exactly the worry. I am glad that our student is not one of them.”
The outstanding graduate of the previous class did not hide her admiration for their “junior brother.”.
What qualifications does he have to talk about cooperation with the rubbish R-country student?
But killing him is not an option. This is not an NPC, and there is no conflict. It is easy to leave a bad impression if he does it now. So it is the best choice to throw him back into the basement.
Taking away the mission watch is a strategy for “eliminating trouble forever.”.
Of course, the narrator’s sister can’t say it too clearly. After all, she is an official staff member. “Many people think that those who don’t hurt others are good people, honest people, but are these people really honest? No, wrong, very wrong. These people are neither honest nor kind, but they have to be honest and kind.
“Only Ji Xinghai, who has the ability to hurt others but can restrain himself from using this power yet maintain this awareness of danger, can be called a good person. It’s not that easy to be a good person.”
“Do you think Ji Xinghai’s behavior is kind?” asked the host next to him.
“The instance world is different from the normal world.” The mediator said meaningfully, “He could have completely resolved the threat, but in the end, he chose a solution that was friendly to both parties even after he was offended.”
Host: … Are you sure this is friendly to the R-country student?
“There are two types of people who die the fastest in the instance world: one is the weak and gentle without ability, and the other is the uncontrollable, dangerous and arrogant person.
“I am now looking forward to Ji Xinghai’s next performance.”
The outstanding performance of their student satisfied the Ninth State viewers, but only the viewers of the small country on the O continent was angry.
Good fellow, same position, same knockout, same binding, same throwing into the dark room. This idiot stepped on the same pit twice, and the second time he lost the mission watch that was extremely important to the students.
The netizens had to shake their heads when they watched it all happen!
On the one hand, they gritted their teeth, thinking that their student were too shameful for being useless, and on the other hand, they thought that the Ninth State student were simply crazy. If they didn’t want to form a group, why did they kick their student back? The change of face was faster than an abnormality.
[He is very sensitive in this regard.]
Otherwise, why is it called a feud? Even the people of D.C. and Ninth State can’t tell the difference; it’s what they deserve. The viewers of D country who were mixed in the live broadcast room of R country didn’t know why they were a little proud.
Ji Xinghai walked to the plain kitchen. He lifted the lid on the iron pot and wanted to see what was inside.
A square bronze box stayed quietly in the pot. He stared for two seconds and tilted his head. Although there was no sense of threat, if there was human flesh inside, it would be more normal.
This world is getting more and more magical.
[Ahhhh! It’s a brass treasure chest! I didn’t expect that we would find a brass treasure chest in the first instance! ]
The viewers in the live broadcast room were so excited. The higher the difficulty of the instance, the more and better the treasure chests. Generally, the first instance has the lowest difficulty, and the brass treasure chest is the most valuable reward, hence there will only be one in the instance.
As expected, there are opportunities in danger. If the hunter were not dealt with, how could this treasure be found? Speaking of which, this is the second treasure chest found in this instance.
The second one is the brass treasure chest!
Treasure chests have different levels. The lower limit of the brass chest is always higher than the upper limit of the wooden chest. This is beyond a doubt.
[What do you think will be inside? Will it be a clean water source? After eating filtered purified water for several years, my mouth always tastes like purification tablets. ]
[I hope to have some unpolluted arable land. I really don’t want to eat synthetic food every day. ]
[Let’s go to a clean sea where seaweed can produce oxygen. I don’t want to go out wearing a respirator anymore. ]
[You ordinary people in Ninth State are so lucky that you can pick and choose. ]
Ji Xinghai waited for a few seconds, and the treasure chest was still there, so he opened the lid with the axe blade to see what was inside. This thing looks like brass, but it is actually very light. It opened with a little force, and a burst of light came out.
“You have obtained a primary purification. Please select an area for primary purification. After purification, the overall pollution level will be reduced by one.”
Some kind of electronic sound appeared, and a map showing a land area in the shape of a rooster appeared with the sound.
Ji Xinghai looked at the map, and his nails pinched into the palm of his hand unconsciously. The pain brought a sense of reality, and the sense of reality broke the dream.
This parallel world is very similar to his original world, and even the map is in the shape of a rooster.
But his world does not have these strange settings; although he was still very young when he left, he knew everything he should know. It was a beautiful, ordinary, quiet, and peaceful world.
“It’s the purification index!” The Ninth State command room was boiling, and even the calmest minister couldn’t hold the cigarette box steadily.
The purification index is different from the forest obtained by the F-continent students before. It has a larger scope and a more far-reaching impact.
It seems that it only reduces the pollution level, but think about it: this is the area of a province. How many countries are as big as their province?
The viewers in the live broadcast room were also very excited.
The game just started, and a primary purification index was obtained like this? They dare not dream of this.
The viewers guessed which province Ji Xinghai would choose to purify. Some of them made wishes in the live broadcast room, and some made wishes in their hearts.
The commentator was guiding public opinion because everyone has selfishness. No matter what choice the students make, there will always be someone who will be disappointed.
Fortunately, it is not the first time for everyone to see the purification index. Although those who live in provinces marked as black (not suitable for human survival) are very eager for this pie to fall on their heads, they also know that no matter which one they choose, student Ji Xinghai is contributing to the country and the people.
They can’t fight in the instance, so they are complaining outside. This is like eating with a bowl in hand and cursing after putting down the bowl.
Ji Xinghai was silent. He was not hesitating, but collecting and organizing information.
There was a row of color cards on the side of the map: black, dark red, red, orange, and yellow. There were markings next to them. The darker the color, the higher the pollution level. Yellow is a pollution-free area, and black is an area not suitable for human survival.
To the naked eye, the entire map was black and red.
Ji Xinghai subconsciously looked at his hometown, a small county town on the coast.
The entire province was black.
Although he knew that it was not his real hometown and there were no relatives there, Ji Xinghai couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
The rest of the places were mostly heavily polluted or moderately polluted. There were only three lightly polluted areas: S Province, Y Province, and J Province, and the only pollution-free area was C City.
What kind of pollution is it?
Is it pollution in the physical environment or pollution at the soul level?
No matter what kind of pollution it is, the outside world needs this kind of “purification” right now, right?
He should be in an “other world,” similar to an instance game. This other world provides this kind of purification. Does it mean that these students come here to obtain this kind of resource? Are they fighting for the interests of their respective countries?
After looking at the general pollution situation in the country, Ji Xinghai directly chose to purify H Province.
There is no other reason. H Province has a large area and a lot of arable land. The annual grain production accounts for 11% of the country, and it is the national granary.
Food is the first necessity for people. Food is the basis of survival, so purifying it has the highest cost-effectiveness.
The messy bangs covered Ji Xinghai’s eyes. This world seems to be very bad, but everyone is working hard for their own “home.”.
At least they still have a home.
It’s really enviable.
