Chapter 876: 875. Reclusive Hero
“In this era of social dia influence, is it really safe to choose soone from this circle without exposing our identities? What on earth is the higher-up thinking!”
“It’s often said that the greatest way to hide is in plain sight. Maybe this is the highest realm of concealing one’s identity.”
“Isn’t it a bit early to worry? I don’t think she’ll make it through the assessnt. The selection chanism of cutting down from 50 to 5 is quite tough.”
Maybe it’ll just be a swift exit?
“Plus, she has several plastic bags and test tubes in her backpack, it’s as if she’s here for a vacation.”
An hour ago, when they saw Tang Shu and were astounded, they fell into silence, full of question marks upon seeing what was inside her backpack, utterly clueless about their use.
This made them even more certain that she was here for a leisurely outing.
“I bet she will definitely be among the first batch to be eliminated!”
“But wasn’t there dia coverage saying she’s quite skilled?”
“No matter how skilled she may be, can she really be better than the other trainees who train day and night? She’s probably devoted all her ti to her acting career.”
Plus, celebrities often care a lot about their figure and weight. Tang Shu’s slender build is miles apart from that of a real master.”
While marveling at this, they also discussed the trainees they were rooting for and picked out the top five contenders they believed had the strongest capabilities.
By that ti, all 50 assessnt participants had already entered the deep mountain, carrying nothing but a selected cold weapon; not even a bottle of water or a slice of bread.
“This is absurd, they didn’t even provide a map; who knows how big this forest is!”
“Before coming here, we only knew the general area of the assessnt; we had no idea which section it would be in, making cheating impossible!”
Given the vastness of the Eastern Country, it was apparent now. Covered by stretches of forest, once inside, people were as insignificant as ants; it’s no wonder they knew the general location a month before the assessnt.
Knowing was the sa as not knowing at all!
“What do we do now, do we have to rely on our surroundings to navigate the coming days?”
This was indeed a problem. They only knew they were starting from the west and had to get through the forest to the other side, with no ti constraints.
The only certainty was that the sooner one reached the destination, the higher the chance of passing the assessnt.
“There will certainly be surprise attacks by instructors during the assessnt. We need to guard against them as well as evade the nurous dangers in the forest. Clearly, the best option is to team up.”
The people at the entrance exchanged glances and quickly reached so sort of agreent.
Group strength is significant; eating, resting, keeping watch is not sothing one person can manage alone – they need companions. Within the first half-day of entry into the assessnt area, almost everyone had chosen their companions. The remaining few scattered individuals beca lone heroes.
Unluckily, Tang Shu was one of these lone heroes.
While others might be worrying about how to gain the favor of temporary companions, a certain celebrity was concerned about securing the lives of these adorable little creatures all around.
“Holy shit! Wh-what are you doing?!”
At dusk, when Tang Shu nonchalantly dissected a venomous snake to extract its gallbladder, a flustered… young boy fell out of the nearest big tree.
The person concerned shook the dead snake and responded with an expressionless face, “Didn’t you see everything? I’m extracting the gallbladder.”
“But that’s a venomous snake; you can’t eat that!”
