Chapter 167 It's all fake! An "insider"! Everyone's been fooled.
At this moment, everyone in the college entrance examination monitoring center stood up.
They stared at the main screen, at the surreal scene, forgetting even to breathe.
"He's gone mad..."
"They've all gone mad..."
An examiner's voice trembled as he looked at the two names on the leaderboard that were skyrocketing in points.
Ninety-ninth place...
Seventieth place...
40th place...
20th place!
In just one minute, Wang Fugui and Lin Xiaoyu both broke into the top twenty of the list!
Furthermore, their points continue to skyrocket at an unbelievable rate!
"Is this...is this considered malicious score manipulation? Is it against the rules?"
A young technician asked in a trembling voice.
"Violation of regulations?"
Zhao Lixin slowly sat down and picked up the cup of tea that had long since gone cold.
His voice, clear as a bell, rang out in the deathly silent command room.
Is Chen Yifan's spreading of rumors a violation of regulations?
"Not really."
"Was it Chen Yifan's fault that the other candidates were greedy and actively attacked him?"
"Yes... oh no..."
A person next to Zhao Lixin spoke up instinctively, but immediately felt a chill and changed his mind.
Zhao Lixin nodded and continued:
"Did Chen Yifan act in self-defense and cripple the enemy? Was that a violation of regulations?"
"Not really."
"Is it against the rules for Wang Fugui and Lin Xiaoyu to harvest the enemies who have lost their ability to resist and gain points?"
Zhao Lixin put down his teacup and his gaze swept over every stiff face in the room.
"It doesn't count."
He spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Everything is within the bounds of the rules!"
"so……"
"He did not break the rules."
In the command center, you could hear a pin drop.
Yes, from beginning to end, Chen Yifan did not do anything out of line.
If we had to pin a crime on him, it would be...
lie.
but……
You could say that this is immoral.
But it cannot be said that he violated the rules.
He simply used a lie to turn all the greedy and unscrupulous people into stepping stones for his teammates.
An eighteen-year-old boy who has not yet entered society.
At an age when they should have been innocent and pure, they used the salaries of 80,000 test takers to pave the way for their siblings to reach the heavens.
What a terrifying mindset!
What an overbearing tactic!
Zhao Lixin's gaze finally settled on the indifferent-looking young man standing amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood on the screen.
At this moment, he no longer harbored any desire to exploit anyone.
This child is no ordinary person.
Jiangcheng is still too small.
Even the Dragon Kingdom... probably can't keep him!
……
at the same time.
Outside the cave.
Well done?
A promise?
Headshot?
These words, like invisible poison needles, pierced Zhou Kai's heart.
His mind went blank for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, a chill ran straight up to the top of my head!
wrong!
That wasn't said to him!
This is... meant for the thousands of people outside!
He turned around abruptly.
Behind him, those faces that were once so fanatical and greedy were now staring at him intently.
His eyes changed.
As the fervor subsided, confusion arose, and ultimately, all emotions solidified into a chilling feeling of being fooled.
Inside the cave, that laughing voice rang out again, clearly penetrating everyone's ears.
"Zhou Kai, I've put in a lot of effort to get you here smoothly."
"Look, I deliberately used the 'recycling point' as bait to help you 'steal' the most important materials package, and then deliberately exposed my whereabouts..."
"All of this is to earn everyone's trust and make you their 'leader'."
"Now that you've brought this 'pledge of allegiance,' I'm very satisfied."
"The rest..."
He paused for a moment, then his smile deepened.
"Leave it to me, don't worry, I'll make sure you're in the top ten of the leaderboard."
boom--!
The crowd completely erupted.
If before it was just suspicion...
So now, Chen Yifan's meticulous self-disclosure is like a heavy hammer that pierces through the dam from the inside!
There are no secret recycling points!
The so-called "fairness" was a meticulously designed scam from beginning to end!
They were all fools in this scam, being sold out and still helping to count the money.
The "leader" they support, Zhou Kai, is not an embodiment of justice.
Damn it, he's the biggest mole Chen Yifan planted inside.
"Zhou Kai...you..."
One of the candidates pointed at him, his lips trembling violently.
"I didn't! I didn't! Don't listen to his nonsense!"
Zhou Kai finally reacted and let out a hoarse roar.
"He's trying to sow discord! He's scared! Yes! He wants us to kill each other!"
However, his explanations were pale and powerless in the eyes of the crowd, which were reddened by anger and humiliation.
Sowing discord?
If it weren't for you, who would know about "recycling points"?
If it weren't for you, who would have rushed here like a mad dog?
If you hadn't been carrying that kit of materials you "seized" from Chen Yifan, who would have believed it?
That kit of materials, in retrospect, was not a trophy at all.
That is irrefutable proof that you, Zhou Kai, colluded with Chen Yifan from the inside!
"Give us back our points!"
A desperate scream rang out from the crowd.
They sacrificed precious hunting time for this fictitious "exchange point".
I came here with Zhou Kai.
Now, the actual time for the college entrance examination is about to end.
Regret, resentment...
Every gaze directed at Zhou Kai seemed to want to devour him alive.
"Give me back my brother's life!"
"Fuck you, Zhou Kai! You traitor!"
"I could have gotten more points... Now look what happened! I'm mortal enemies! Mortal enemies!!!"
"Kill him! Take all the points he revealed!"
Reason has completely collapsed.
The anger of being deceived, the regret of missing out on points, the hatred of having his teammates betrayed and killed... all these emotions converged into the most primal killing intent!
The candidates closest to Zhou Kai, their eyes flashing with murderous intent, attacked simultaneously!
Fireballs, ice spikes, flashes of blades, shadows of swords...
They poured their anger and frustration onto the figure they had once regarded as their "leader."
"No--!"
Zhou Kai let out a desperate roar.
Explain? Resist? Escape?
Any thought was instantly overwhelmed by the overwhelming killing intent!
He was no longer facing rational test takers.
Instead, it is a giant web called "Anger" woven from thousands of distorted faces.
The light of the [Berserker Bloodline] had just begun to shine when it was instantly shattered by more than a dozen skills.
His prized greatsword flew out of his hand.
The heavy material bag on his back, symbolizing both "hope" and "betrayal," exploded under the energy bombardment, sending colorful "garbage" flying everywhere.
"puff--!"
Zhou Kai's body was like a blood bag that had been instantly punctured.
One second before the body is completely disintegrated by the data stream.
He used his last bit of strength to turn his head with difficulty.
He stared intently at the dark cave entrance that had swallowed everything.
hole.
There seemed to be a boy standing there.
On his face, there was still that harmless smile.
At the same time, he waved gently at him.
[You have earned 45 points for defeating examinee Zhou Kai.]
The system notification appeared on the panel of one of the lucky individuals in the crowd.
However, his ecstasy lasted for less than a second.
"Zhou Kai is dead! That kid stole his points!"
"Kill him!"
"Mine! All of them are mine!"
The next moment, thousands of skills completely engulfed the place where he and Zhou Kai had disappeared.
The only "traitor" has been brought to justice.
Now, the only thing standing between them and the "massive points" is the three people in the cave.
And...each other.
"Damn it! Kill them!!!"
A roar that had completely lost its rationality caused the fragile order to collapse completely!
Nearly 10,000 candidates were urged on by the countdown, which lasted for half an hour.
Like wild beasts breaking free of their cages, they roared, trampled each other, and frantically threw their skills at everyone around them.
Indiscriminate attack.
The most absurd college entrance examination in history.
Now, let the feast begin!
