Chapter 84 The atmosphere is wrong
Chapter 84 The atmosphere is wrong
"What the hell is going on?!"
"Why would those weirdos kill each other?!"
"Also, how did contestant Lin Ye make the gaming god submit to him?!"
At the competition venue, there was a lot of noise in the audience seats. Everyone was discussing the incredible scene that had just happened, trying to find a reasonable explanation for it.
However, no matter how hard they thought, they couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Cough cough."
Mike coughed lightly, drawing the audience's attention back to himself, and said with a smile: "It seems that contestant Lin Ye really has his own unique qualities!"
"There's a reason why he was able to achieve an SSS-level rating in an SSS-level dungeon!"
"However," Mike changed the subject and said helplessly, "This perspective may lack some of the viewing appeal that everyone wants."
"After all, watching Lin Ye showing off by himself is definitely not as exciting as watching those players fighting each other between life and death."
"So." Mike smiled at the camera, "Next, let's switch the perspective to other players and see what they are doing now!"
As he spoke, Mike winked at Lu Hongwen.
Lu Hongwen understood and nodded.
Seeing this, Mike immediately operated the remote control in his hand and switched the image on the big screen to the perspective of another player.
"Next, let's take a look at where contestant Lu Zijin is now!"
On the big screen, the scene changed and a golden desert appeared.
The sky was filled with yellow sand, the sun was scorching, and the heat waves were rolling, as if you were in a huge oven.
Lu Zijin, Ye Yiling, and six other contestants were hiding in the shadow of a sand dune to avoid the scorching sun.
Lu Zijin's left arm was tightly wrapped in white gauze, obviously having been injured before.
Ye Yiling stuck close to Lu Zijin, her beautiful eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly, as if she was on guard against something.
The other six contestants gathered in twos and threes, whispering about something, and their eyes were filled with complicated expressions when they looked at Lu Zijin and Ye Yiling.
"Zijin, are you okay?"
Ye Yiling looked at Lu Zijin and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, it's just a minor injury."
Lu Zijin shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
"It's all because of those damn guys!"
Ye Yiling gnashed her teeth and said, "If it weren't for them, Zijin, you wouldn't be hurt!"
"Okay, Sister Yiling, stop talking."
Lu Zijin pulled Ye Yiling's sleeve, signaling her not to continue.
"But."
Ye Yiling wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Lu Zijin's look.
"Humph!"
Ye Yiling snorted coldly and stopped talking, but the look she gave the six contestants was still full of hostility.
"Hey, can you two stop arguing?!"
At this moment, a burly male contestant suddenly turned around and spoke impatiently to Lu Zijin and Ye Yiling.
"That's right. We are in a dungeon now. We could be in danger at any time. Can you guys be quiet?!"
Another thin male contestant also said this.
"Hmph, it's none of your business!"
Ye Yiling retorted without showing any weakness.
"you"
The two male contestants were immediately choked by Ye Yiling's words, and their faces turned a little ugly.
"Okay, just stop saying a few words."
At this time, a male player who looked older said, "We are a team now. We should unite and face difficulties together instead of fighting among ourselves."
"Humph!"
Ye Yiling snorted coldly and said nothing more, but the look she gave the six contestants was still full of vigilance and distrust.
"It seems that the atmosphere in this team is somewhat disharmonious."
At the competition site, Mike looked at the interaction between Lu Zijin and others on the screen and couldn't help but smile and said.
"Yes, although they haven't taken action yet, it can be seen from their eyes and tone that there seems to be some conflict between them." Qin Minglin also nodded.
“Haha, this is normal.”
Lu Hongwen smiled and said, "After all, they are now in a life-and-death situation. Any small conflict may be infinitely magnified and eventually lead to unmanageable consequences."
"So, next, it depends on how they can resolve their conflicts, unite and face difficulties together."
The sun was scorching, the desert was like a huge steamer, and the air was filled with suffocating heat.
Lu Zijin and others hid in the shadow of the sand dunes, their mouths dry and their bodies sweating profusely.
"Water, I've finished my water."
A thin male contestant licked his cracked lips and spoke in a hoarse voice.
“I’ve finished mine too.”
Another male contestant said weakly.
"Damn it, why is this place so hot?!"
"If we can't find water, we'll all die of thirst here!"
Several other contestants also started to complain.
"Zijin, how much water do you have left?"
Ye Yiling looked at Lu Zijin and asked in a low voice.
"I still have a little."
As Lu Zijin spoke, he took out a bottle of mineral water that was less than half full from his backpack.
"Give me a drink!"
At this moment, a burly male contestant suddenly rushed to Lu Zijin and reached out to grab the mineral water in Lu Zijin's hand.
"What do you want to do?!"
Seeing this, Ye Yiling quickly stood in front of Lu Zijin, glared at the male contestant, and said, "This water belongs to Zijin, why are you trying to steal it?!"
"Why?!"
The male contestant snorted coldly and said, "Just look at how much effort we put in when we encountered those weirdos just now, and what about you two?!"
"You two have been hiding behind from the beginning to the end. You haven't helped at all. You are simply two encumbrances!"
"If it weren't for your good looks, I would have thrown you two into the desert and left you to fend for yourselves!"
"Now, we are almost dying of thirst, and you dare to hide it and refuse to take out the water?!"
"I'm telling you, don't be so shameless! If you know what's best for you, just hand over the water. Otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?!"
Ye Yiling stared at the male contestant fearlessly, her eyes full of anger.
"Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
The male contestant threatened with a fierce light in his eyes.
"you"
Ye Yiling was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She knew that these people were almost driven crazy and could do anything.
"Sister Yiling, give them the water."
Lu Zijin pulled Ye Yiling's sleeve and whispered.
"But."
Ye Yiling wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Zijin's look.
She gritted her teeth and finally compromised.
"Hmph, you know what's going on!"
Seeing this, the male contestant snorted coldly, snatched the mineral water from Lu Zijin's hand, tilted his head back and drank it.
"Gudong, Gudong"
He drank the remaining half bottle of water in just a few gulps.
"Haha, so happy!"
After drinking the water, the male contestant burped contentedly and looked at Lu Zijin with eyes full of mockery and disdain.
"He's just a waste. He wasted Decade's excellent knight system. He got hurt by fighting a low-level monster. Ugh!"
