[Explorer Assessnt Rest Hall]
Chen Kong looked at Mi Yao, who had successfully passed the assessnt on the screen, but his mind was replaying the scene of Mi Yao being frantically 'chased' by the Raccoon Administrator not long ago.
Even soone of Mi Yao's strength only managed to pass with such difficulty. If the subsequent assessnts were all based on this standard, could he truly pass this assessnt?
Chen Kong felt very uncertain about this question.
Just then, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
Chen Kong turned his head and saw the caraman looking at him, the lens on his face gently rotating.
"Don't worry, your Void Mark can shield Star Energy fluctuations, my detector can find traces of Star Beasts 30 seconds in advance, and Ms. An Qin's 'Listen to All' can help us know about the arrival of the pursuers early."
"As long as we are careful, the chance of passing is still quite high."
Chen Kong was montarily stunned, and the anxiety in his heart eased slightly.
The existence elimination effect of the Void Mark was indeed his trump card, but the thought of the Calamity-Grade Raccoon's giant form and the Shadow Wolves scurrying everywhere in the ruins still made him frown.
"I still feel we can't be too optimistic."
The caraman smiled without speaking.
Clearly, he naturally understood the difficulty of this assessnt.
Just as he was about to say sothing more, a crisp ringing of a bell suddenly echoed in the rest hall.
The next second, the Raccoon Administrator walked into the hall with its short legs and stopped in the center.
It then looked around, finally settling its gaze on Liu Ma, Vivian, and Isabelle.
"The next group for the assessnt will be you."
Hearing the Raccoon Administrator call out their group for the assessnt.
Liu Ma took a deep breath, then nodded.
"Isn't it just hide-and-seek? This old man is definitely going to hold out until the end!"
Although he said that, Liu Ma was actually very nervous inside.
He had witnessed Mi Yao's desperate battle and was equally unsure about whether he could pass this assessnt.
Fortunately, their assessnt content wasn't fighting a Calamity-Grade entity, but rely hiding for a certain amount of ti.
This gave him a glimr of hope for passing.
During the preparation ti, Vivian went to Liu Ma and Isabelle, offering her final instructions.
"Don't rush in later, we will stick to the plan we discussed earlier."
Liu Ma and Isabelle nodded, signaling that they would cooperate with Vivian's actions as much as possible.
After a brief exchange, a pale blue beam of light enveloped them.
The next second, they disappeared from the rest hall.
At the sa ti, the holographic screen above everyone's heads began to switch scenes.
What appeared was a scene of city outskirts ruins.
Due to the lack of civilization traces for many years, the city outskirts were now covered by towering trees, dense wild grass, and vines.
Only the occasional discarded street lamp and broken road revealed that this had once been a human residential area.
As soon as Liu Ma and the others landed, they exchanged glances and moved in different directions.
Liu Ma slipped into a patch of waist-high grass, keeping his body low and even softening his breathing, quickly disappearing from everyone's view.
Isabelle hid inside a discarded bus, laying down a faint layer of frost around the vehicle body.
Vivian, on the other hand, walked towards the center of the city ruins, seemingly with no intention of hiding.
The cara's lens followed Vivian as she moved forward.
[One Minute Later]
[Explorer Assessnt, Outskirt Ruins]
"Awoo!"
Vivian had just erged from a dense patch of woods when a Shadow Wolf darted out from behind a tree, its blood-red eyes fixed on her. It then roared toward the sky, summoning its companions to the location.
What was strange, however, was that Vivian seed to have anticipated this situation.
Not only did she not rush to find a way to silence the Shadow Wolf, but she waited in place.
It was as if she had deliberately exposed her whereabouts.
Seeing this, the external observer, Chen Kong, couldn't help but say, "What is Vivian doing? Is she using herself as bait?"
The caraman looked at Vivian on the screen, a reflection arcing across the large lens on his face.
"Hard to say, I have a feeling the situation is not as simple as you think."
And soon, everyone understood Vivian's purpose.
As more and more Shadow Wolves appeared around Vivian, the woman who had been standing still suddenly moved.
She raised her hand, and a special chanical device, similar to a 'beehive,' suddenly appeared in her right hand.
[Na: Interference Swarm]
[Quality: Grade 2]
[Effect: Can probe the surroundings and release preset quantum interference signals.]
[Description: Buzz buzz buzz (Static noise)...]
As Vivian spread her hand, a large number of chanical bees flew out, landing on the surrounding Shadow Wolves.
These tiny chanical bees naturally posed no threat to the Shadow Wolves.
But Vivian's goal was not to have these chanical bees kill or injure the Shadow Wolves, but rather to use their bodies as a carrier to release 'smoke screens.'
What was the biggest difficulty of the second-stage hide-and-seek?
After watching the assessnt process of Mi Yao and others, everyone had a clear answer in their minds.
The biggest challenge in this stage was the Calamity-Grade Raccoon Administrator and the unknown Calamity-Grade Star Beast.
However, the latter was sowhat traceable, while the forr was elusive.
The opponent could suddenly appear and capture the examinee without warning.
Therefore, the later they were discovered by the Raccoon Administrator.
The greater their chance of passing.
And in this assessnt, there was a very specific setting.
That is, the examinee's location would be transmitted to the Raccoon Administrator at regular intervals.
Although this increased the difficulty of hiding for Vivian and the others.
Similarly, it gave Vivian inspiration.
Could she transmit 'false information' to the Raccoon Administrator by simulating a signal?
For anyone else, achieving this would not be easy, but for Vivian, who possessed the special talent 'Spark of All Machinery,' it was different.
Because she could attach specific Machine Souls to her chanical devices.
The presence of these Machine Souls would generate a 'unique quantum signal' that was almost identical to Vivian's own.
Although Vivian didn't think these signals alone could fool the Raccoon Administrator.
They could, however, buy them so ti.
Under everyone's curious gaze, Vivian opened the tal box in her hand, revealing the densely packed miniature chanical bees inside.
Each bee was only the size of a thumbnail, and their wings glowed with a pale blue light.
"Go, little ones."
Under Vivian's command, a large swarm of chanical bees surged toward the Shadow Wolves like a tide.
These chanical bees did not attack the Shadow Wolves; they simply quietly attached themselves to their bodies, their wings vibrating slightly. By utilizing the Shadow Wolves' own life signals and distorting them slightly, they transford them into a highly similar, nearly genuine quantum signal that resembled Vivian's own.
[Na: Spark of All Machinery]
[Effect 1. Machine Soul Containnt: Can contain Machine Souls within its own quantum space and dominate them to a certain extent (Current limit: 100)]
[Effect 2. Machine Soul Adaptation: When making contact with a chanical device, can drive the Machine Souls within its quantum space to descend upon the device, significantly enhancing its performance (Ultra-Limit State can be activated under specific conditions)]
[Effect 3. Communication with All Machinery: Can establish a ntal connection with any chanical device, regardless of whether it possesses a Machine Soul, for a certain degree of communication]
