Gong Kaishan stood still, his figure shrouded in thick white smoke, making it difficult to discern his expression at this mont.
Just a second ago, he was still puzzled as to why Xiao Feng said "sorry" and wondered what Xiao Feng had done to owe him an apology.
The next second, with the sound of a gunshot, he understood...
"Don't worry, once outside, I'll talk to Hua Ling to waive any penalties you might face," Xiao Feng comforted him.
In fact, if it were anyone else, Xiao Feng wouldn't feel this guilty.
After all, Gong Kaishan was an honest and straightforward person who had helped him quite a bit.
One must have a conscience, and compensation after the fact is a necessity!
Little did he know, Gong Kaishan at this mont didn't care at all about the punishnt for failing to et the target.
He wondered if all this was a distortion of humanity or a decline in morals that made his once passionate heart turn so cold...
As the smoke dissipated, Gong Kaishan sneered, "Perhaps I was too naive. I need to learn to recognize this world anew and let this world... recognize anew."
With those words left behind, Gong Kaishan departed solemnly, walking towards the distance.
Speaking after being eliminated was a real violation of the rules.
However, he no longer cared about these things.
The violations and punishnts seed trivial compared to the wounds on his chilly heart.
"This is too much!" Du Qingyue frowned.
Xiao Feng also felt strange; Gong Kaishan was usually carefree and sowhat uncouth, but the words he said before leaving...
Could it be that his actions led Gong Kaishan towards "darkening"?
Such scenes frequently appear in movies.
A simple, honest person frequently struck by harsh realities eventually turns scheming, deeply calculating.
Once in power, on a certain night, holding a beauty, smoking a cigar, he sighs, "I beca this way because I was forced..."
Shaking his head, dispelling these unrealistic thoughts.
Xiao Feng glanced at the remaining people, pondering, "I probably understand why Gong Kaishan ended up like this."
"Why?" everyone asked in unison.
"Based on the current number of people left, if Gong Kaishan and the others continued in a group of seventeen, none would likely complete the task given by Hua Ling.
Although I don't know the specifics of the task, it probably involves eliminating people or sothing of the sort.
This way, dispersing action becos the only strategy, but for safety, even when dispersed, they won't disperse too thoroughly.
With seventeen people, if they form pairs, one must act alone..."
At this, everyone suddenly understood, envisaging Gong Kaishan's plight...
First, he was isolated with no one to team with, thus forced to act alone, hurting once already.
Then, encountering Xiao Feng, thinking he could hitch a ride, yet the result was another psychological blow!
"Once the assessnt is over, I'll find him and apologize," Xiao Feng said.
Now that the incident has happened, there's nothing more to say, it can only be temporarily set aside.
Monts later, Xiao Feng looked at Shang Shanhu, "What's the plan next?"
According to the rules, Shang Shanhu eliminated soone from the team of seventeen, making him the winner of this segnt. Whether to continue or not, the choice is his.
Shang Shanhu didn't consider for too long and quickly answered, "I want to follow Brother Nine, it's good to gain so experience."
This wasn't flattery but heartfelt, sincere words.
Through this journey of following, there were several monts where Shang Shanhu felt his horizons widening.
Regarding whether to continue interacting with Xiao Feng afterward, he'd already decided.
The answer is—to interact.
Even though he wasn't clear about the relationship between Xiao Feng and Gong Kaishan, Xiao Feng's recent display of remorse suggested he wasn't soone unfeeling, solely focused on money.
Continuing to interact with him, becoming true friends, should benefit himself.
Xiao Feng didn't say much, instructing everyone to keep moving; the priority was to sell the ghillie suits, along with other supplies, striving to maximize profits before the assessnt ends!
"On your way selling supplies, did you sell only to n?" Du Qingyue asked suddenly while walking alongside Xiao Feng.
The voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for the two to hear.
Xiao Feng imdiately beca alert and responded, "I treat n and won alike, doing business, have you ever seen sothing sold only to n or won?"
"If a woman has no money, besides writing an IOU, is there another form of paynt?"
"Yes, paying cash also works, but so far, I haven't encountered anyone with much cash on hand."
Du Qingyue squinted her eyes and smiled, "Aside from cash?"
"Then nothing else, I only recognize money!" Xiao Feng said righteously.
However, despite that declaration.
During the sale of supplies, Xiao Feng indeed encountered two female mbers who attempted to pay with their bodies, both had decent looks.
One even suggested accompanying him, hinting at finding a drone-free spot to secretly engage in so indescribable duo activity.
Facing such temptations, Xiao Feng displayed remarkable restraint and refused outright!
After all, if he could resist Xue Nuofu, he could certainly handle those less stunning.
Seeing Xiao Feng didn't seem to be lying, coupled with the assessnt process monitored by drones, Du Qingyue dropped the subject, glanced at her wristwatch, and said:
"Eighty-three people remain, and we're currently twenty-seven in total, which ans when the remaining drops to thirty-seven, we face elimination, otherwise, we could make it into the top ten."
"Exactly!" Xiao Feng nodded, speaking in a deep voice, "Therefore, the ti to make money is not much..."
"..." Du Qingyue.
The dedication towards money of the person next to her was truly as passionate as ever!
However, thinking of Fenghua, with her business ceased and Xiao Feng's earning opportunities suppressed, she understood where this passion stemd from.
Half from his heart, the other half obviously from external pressures.
After all, if the source of inco is cut, life could beco unbearably difficult.
The sense of urgency felt by Xiao Feng resulted in chosen custors facing disasters.
There were also clients encountered afterward, resembling Ji Yonggang before, keen on facing direct elimination.
Instead of punches and kicks, generally, they faced a whirlwind of persuasive sales pitches from over twenty people in turns.
Until the items for sale were described as a unique treasure, making anyone not buying feel as if missing out on a major opportunity.
Xiao Feng felt satisfied about it but still urged everyone to intensify their sales efforts.
This led to, later on, giving custors an impression of "not buying ans you're not Huaxia."
Everyone's sales skills improved notably!
However, just as the remaining number dwindled to only fifty, a new situation erged...
