Chapter 577: Chapter 577: Cat and Mouse Ga
Chen Manman also agreed with what Luo Xuan said.
Their team’s overall strength wasn’t strong—they could only survive by hiding until the end.
What if the last-ranked Q team got eliminated? Wouldn’t they beco the new target?
The mbers of Q team were so formidable, yet even they had been forced to co here.
They couldn’t even dare to think about how terrifying the teams outside were.
“For safety’s sake,” Chen Manman cleared his throat, “let’s continue to observe for now.”
Jiang Li and his team had been chopping trees all morning.
In the afternoon, the forest was quiet, but there was a tapping sound of wood being hit near the lake.
It took Team J all morning to fish out two small fish from the lake, which they then turned into soup. Afterwards, they looked enviously at the fragrant fried rice Jiang Li was cooking across the lake.
Jiang Yan, while showing off his al, watched Jiang Li, who had been hamring away all noon on sothing that was beginning to take shape.
“Co on, Jiang Li, if you’re going to build a house, at least make it bigger; that small shack could only fit a dog, right?”
“Who said I was building a house?” Jiang Li stirred with his chopsticks, “We’re a bit short on wood, let’s keep chopping after we eat. No sleep this afternoon.”
Jiang Yan: !!!
“You’re exploiting cheap labor, you evil capitalist! No wait, you’re not even a capitalist, my pay is just a bowl of fried rice!”
He looked around at everyone else, “Aren’t you going to protest? Don’t you have any opinions about how Jiang Li is treating you?”
Shang Shuyue shook her head, “Jiang Li must have her reasons.”
She had tried to object before, but she had seen the results afterward. It’s better to follow her—the days on the island go more smoothly that way.
Bai Lu, as usual, showed her starry-eyed admiration as if working for Jiang Li was her life’s mission.
“What’s wrong with chopping so trees? Even if Lili asked to chop down all the trees on the island, I’d be willing.”
Yu Li nodded along, “Yeah, without Jiang Li, I would have been eliminated long ago.”
He was quite self-aware.
With his poor manual skills and fastidiousness, he would have been scorned in any other team.
Only Jiang Li was kind enough to still use him.
Simply following orders was quite fine for him.
Jiang Cheng, who had completely stopped being picky, licked the last grain of rice from his bowl and said, “No way, whatever Sister says, I’m okay with doing.”
He had no choice but to comply.
The female devil’s whip was too terrifying; he didn’t want to beco a corpse on this island.
Jiang Yan was flabbergasted.
“Have you all been brainwashed?”
Jiang Li was too scary.
He should have stopped his mother from having a second child!
…
As Team J had guessed, at two in the afternoon, the program team promptly released a new ga.
But today’s ga was different from yesterday’s roulette; it was a fixed ga with a strange and quirky na.
“Cat and Mouse Ga? What is this?” Guo Xing looked at the odd na.
Then, everyone clicked to open the ga description.
[System notification, starting October 12th at 5:00 PM, the “Cat and Mouse Ga” will officially begin. Ga details as follows—]
[Among the nine surviving teams on Dragon Ridge Island, the team ranked last in points will be the “Mouse,” and the other eight teams will be the “Cats.” The “Cats” will automatically switch to attack mode, and the “Mouse” to defense mode, for a fixed period of three days.]
“The first ‘Cat’ team to capture the ‘Rat’ team will earn ten thousand points, if the ‘Rat’ team successfully escapes for three days, they will earn thirty thousand points.”
“During the ga, the system will introduce a new forum app where players can freely express themselves, share statuses; after the ga, the forum will be automatically shut down.”
“All interpretations of the ga rules are at the discretion of the TV show team.”
“Good luck to all players.”
The live broadcast exploded.
The internet also exploded.
The mont the ga was announced, it trended online.
“Ah, is ‘Wilderness Survival’ playing this thrillingly this ti? So many guests attacking one team at once?”
“I used to think that the show was giving Jiang Li’s team a bit of an advantage, but it looks like there’s no advantage at all. They’re being targeted so terribly.”
“Holy crap, ten thousand points? Isn’t Team A, which is currently in the lead, only at twenty to thirty thousand points? Whoever gets these ten thousand points is going to be over the moon!”
“Team Q is dood now. Folks, while they’re still here, quickly take another look.”
Jiang Yan was dumbfounded.
“Last place is the Rat Team?! Damn, that’s us??? Now everyone is going to attack us?!”
Everyone’s faces turned pale all at once.
“Is the show playing such a big ga this ti?” Bai Lu imdiately grew anxious, “If so many people co looking for us, could it cause trouble…”
Jiang Li was only surprised for a mont when he saw the ga introduction, then quickly regained his usual composure.
“Everyone, calm down.”
“How can we calm down?” Jiang Cheng closed his mock exam books, “While we still have ti, let’s quickly discuss our strategy.”
Jiang Li calmly put on his work gloves.
“Our strategy is—to hold our ground.”
Everyone: ?
She picked up a saw and calmly sawed a stump into two pieces.
“We still have three hours before the ga starts. Are you really prepared to spend these three hours nervous and uneasy?”
“This place is very hidden, not to ntion whether those people can find us today. Even if they do know where we are, it will take so ti for them to get here, right?”
“Since they can’t do anything about us for the ti being, why shouldn’t we just proceed thodically and get things done?”
“But don’t forget,” Yu Li spoke with gravity, “There’s already a ‘Cat’ team right there.”
Everyone followed his gaze, and their hearts sank.
Right, right next to us is Team J!
Yet, Jiang Li just smiled.
“Them? No need to worry, they can’t do anything to us.”
First off, they don’t have the guts to take risks.
Upon hearing the news, Team J was thrilled.
“Team Q is the Rat Team?! My God, and there’s a ten thousand points reward? Isn’t this divine intervention?” Guo Xing spoke excitedly, “Good thing we didn’t listen to Xiao Chun and eliminate Team Q just now, or we might have ended up as the Rat Team ourselves.”
Hearing this, Ai Xiaochun also felt a sense of relief after narrowly escaping danger.
Yes, if they’d really eliminated Team Q, wouldn’t they be the ones everyone was targeting now?
With this realization, she quickly latched onto her boyfriend’s arm, “Ah Xuan is smart, just wait for the ga to start. We’ll imdiately eliminate Team Q and the ten thousand points will be ours.”
However, Luo Xuan stared at his watch with a furrowed brow.
“No, we can’t eliminate them right away.”
