Interstellar: The correct way to become cannon fodder in a book

When Wu Mengbai heard Nan Qixing ask this question, he answered as gently as possible.

"Gardenia..."

Nan Qixing repeated the name of the flower in his mouth and lowered his head to smell the snow-white flower.

The sweet scent fills my nose.

He held the gardenia in one hand and couldn't help touching the crown-shaped pendant on his neck with the other hand.

Nan Qixing could vaguely feel that this crown-shaped pendant was very special to her.

He raised his head and sat up in the treatment cabin, looking out the window at the dazzling sunlight that was too bright to look directly at.

The brilliant sunshine seemed to overlap with a pair of golden eyes.

Equally dazzling, yet equally impossible to look directly at.

"Mother, I seem to have forgotten someone very important."

……

Jiang Chi pulled Xu Zhihe and strode forward. The mud all over his body made Jiang Chi feel extremely uncomfortable.

He now wished he could run over and dive into the water to wash away the dirt.

He walked along Xu Zhihe's path along his memory. Jiang Chi remembered clearly that there seemed to be a river nearby.

The two walked quickly and found the river that Jiang Chi remembered in about 5 minutes.

Jiang Chi heard the sound of flowing water and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He pulled Xu Zhihe's hand and walked faster.

Xu Zhihe was jogging while being pulled by Jiang Chi. He was not as tall as Jiang Chi, and his legs were not as long as Jiang Chi.

Compared to Jiang Chi who heard the sound of water, Xu Zhihe smelled a faint smell of blood.

Jiang Chi's hearing is outstanding, while Xu Zhihe's is his sense of smell.

He smelled the smell of blood hidden in the air. Although it was very faint, he still captured it keenly.

He stopped, and the hand that Jiang Chi was holding pulled Jiang Chi back.

Jiang Chi was originally walking forward with big strides, but he staggered because of Xu Zhihe's action.

Jiang Chi frowned. When did Xu Zhihe become so strong? He was even stronger than him.

But compared to this, he was more curious about why Xu Zhihe stopped. He turned his head with a look of deep doubt on his face.

Xu Zhihe held his hand tightly and shook his head at him.

"Let's not walk so fast. Be careful. I smell a faint smell of blood in the air."

When Jiang Chi heard Xu Zhihe's words, his attention was instantly drawn. He glanced at Xu Zhihe and also tried hard to smell the air.

It’s a pity that I didn’t smell anything.

However, after living together for a long time, Jiang Chi knows Xu Zhihe very well.

Naturally, he also knew Xu Zhihe's innate keen sense of smell. He nodded and spoke.

"Okay, let's be careful."

Compared to the two people who were moving quickly just now, they obviously slowed down a bit and became more vigilant because of the faint smell of blood in the air.

They continued along the road, which eventually led to a small river.

There really is no other way, the two of them are too dirty now.

Wash it off with water as soon as possible.

What's more, Jiang Chi has a mild obsession with mysophobia, so it's really hard for him to endure until now.

It is absolutely impossible to let them leave, so we can only try to be more vigilant.

The two people walked closer and closer to the stream, and the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger, so strong that even Jiang Chi could smell it.

Both of them raised their vigilance to the maximum, took out the daggers provided by the system, and held them in their hands.

Be it Jiang Chi or Xu Zhihe, they were both like arrows on a bow ready to be shot, their whole bodies tense.

Jiang Chi and Xu Zhihe were almost certain that a fight must have taken place nearby, and both the star beasts and humans must have been seriously injured.

Jiang Chi and Xu Zhihe finally reached the river, and the smell of blood in the air also showed that their idea was correct.

The two men were tense and looked around for a while but didn't find anything.

Not to mention the star beast, not even a human figure was seen, except for a large pool of blood on the ground not far from the stream.

The area was almost dyed blood red, and there was almost no green left.

Jiang Chi walked over, squatted down, and looked at the pool of blood carefully.

The bloodstain was very bright red and was disappearing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into bright red particles that floated in the air.

"This should be the blood of a star beast, not a human. Moreover, the person just died not long ago, and he just left not long ago."

Because they entered a virtual world for this exam, no matter whether they were humans or star beasts, they would turn into particles and dissipate in the air after death.

The smell of blood here is so strong. Although there is no corpse, the blood has not completely dissipated. It can be seen that the fight has not been over for long.

Xu Zhihe also walked over, squatted down, smeared some blood, and put it to his nose to sniff.

He said after a moment's silence.

"To create such a large pool of blood, more than one star beast must have died, at least two."

"And I don't smell much human blood in this blood."

"This is a crushing battle."

Although the blood of star beasts and human blood are both red, there are some subtle differences between them.

The taste of human blood is that strong smell of rust, while the blood of star beasts has a very unique fragrance added to the strong smell of rust.

The strange fragrance in the blood of some star beasts is very strong, while that in others is very faint.

But no matter how bland it is, it will still exist.

The smell of human blood in this pool of blood was very slight, which showed that the man did not suffer any serious injuries after fighting against at least two star beasts.

The two men stood up, and Xu Zhihe held Jiang Chi's hand with one hand.

Jiang Chi looked at the sky and then at the pool of blood on the ground that was about to disappear.

"Xiao Chi is very strong."

Jiang Chi nodded when he heard Xu Zhihe's words. He agreed with what Xu Zhihe said.

"Although we can't tell what level these two star beasts are, you also said that this was a crushing battle."

"Whether it's one star or two stars, anyone who can crush a star beast is undoubtedly a strong opponent."

Xu Zhihe nodded when he heard Jiang Chi's words.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Chi's face which was covered with many mud spots and asked.

"Xiao Chi, can you do this?"

Jiang Chi looked at the not-so-thick grass on the ground. The pool of blood had disappeared while they were talking.

"I can not do it."

Jiang Chi answered decisively. He could kill two star beasts, but he couldn't do it with almost no wounds.

Xu Zhihe blinked when he heard Jiang Chi's decisive words.

He pursed his still rosy lips and spoke in an awkward tone.

"What if these two star beasts were not killed by one person, but by a team working together to kill them?"

Xu Zhihe held Jiang Chi's hand with one hand and hooked Jiang Chi's little finger with his little finger.

Jiang Chi pulled Xu Zhihe to the riverside, scooped a handful of water with his free hand and washed Xu Zhihe's face, speaking as he washed.

"Maybe."

Even if both of them knew that the possibility of the team uniting was not high.

The strong smell of blood in the air and the large pool of blood when they arrived both proved that the man who hunted down the two star beasts had just left not far away.

He Jiangchi and Xu Zhihe might have just missed the time they arrived at the river.

Maybe that person just left and they came right after.

If they were working as a team to hunt these two star beasts, they wouldn't have been able to move so fast.

…………

Ye Sheng was in a good mood as she walked in the jungle, with one hand in her pocket and the other hand playing with a dagger.

Her points increased very quickly, and she was far ahead of others.

Ye Sheng yawned as she walked. To be honest, she was a little bored. The star beasts here posed no threat to her at all. Even if they were three stars, she could kill them in seconds.

Whenever she got bored, she would go kill star beasts. She became even more bored when she saw that killing star beasts was as easy as drinking water.

This vicious cycle continued, and before he knew it, Ye Sheng had killed countless star beasts.

Star Beast: “…”

The star beasts cried with tears streaming down their cheeks, and a great killer came into the jungle.

If an animal blocks your path, kill it.

Ye Sheng was tired from walking and stopped lazily beside a tree. She looked up at the height of the tree, jumped up and jumped onto the tree with her feet.

She sat on a branch, her legs swinging constantly, and she was playing with a dagger in one hand.

There were still traces of bright red blood on the dagger that had not been cleaned off.

Ye Sheng killed many star beasts, the most of which were one-star and two-star. Three-star beasts were not common in this jungle, and Ye Sheng had only encountered two of them so far.

She took out a bottle of water from her black bag, unscrewed the bottle and drank it down with a gulp.

There are only three days left until the end. Today is the fourth day of the assessment. During these four days, she not only killed many star beasts but also found the places where supplies and food were stored.

Now she can be considered rich and has no shortage of nutrients or water.

Because we have entered the second half of the assessment, the live camera has been fixed.

The fixed object is Ye Sheng, and the scenes seen in the live broadcast room are now played from Ye Sheng's perspective.

In the live broadcast room.

The moon said nothing: [I am numb, is this still a child? This is really killing gods and Buddhas. ]

Xingkong: [Ah, who says it’s not true? She’s already so amazing at the age of 8, but what am I doing at the age of 8? I was still drinking milk at the age of 8…]

User 579: [Yes, this kid is ridiculously strong. Ever since the live broadcast camera was fixed on her, I haven't encountered any star beast that can cause trouble to this kid in front of me.]

Time flies: [That's right, this kid named Ye Sheng is now number one on the points ranking list. Seeing this, I can only say it's awesome. ]

Maybe: [I seem to have seen the rise of a strong man. ]

Your father: [The guy upstairs has a Chuunibyou attack, ignore him. ]

The most affectionate person in the universe: [It’s a pity that the live broadcast camera has been specially processed so we can’t see the examinee’s face clearly. I really want to see what this kid named Ye Sheng looks like.]

……

Ye Sheng sat on the tree, swinging his short legs, and turned on his light brain.

There are only two options on the optical computer.

One is voluntary withdrawal, and the other is the points ranking list.

Ye Sheng decisively clicked into number two.

Ye Sheng looked at the points ranking list in front of him, scrolling down casually with his fingers.

Looks like he's looking for someone.

When netizens outside the live broadcast room saw Ye Sheng's action, they instantly became curious based on what they knew about this little ancestor that day.

The child in front of him was a real lone wolf, and there were candidates who wanted to team up with her to hunt star beasts.

After all, although the candidates in this exam are opponents, they can also have a cooperative relationship.

But all the candidates were rejected by the kid in front of him with a smile. It was only a few days before the end of the exam, and the kid had been hunting star beasts alone.

User 777: [Hey, what is Ye Sheng doing? ]

Qingfengyilu: [I don't know. Judging from her appearance, she seems to be looking for someone on the leaderboard.]

User 123: [Who are you looking for? You said Ye Sheng is looking for someone! I don't believe this kid because he's acting like a lone wolf.]

Love in the World: [Don’t be so sure, it would be bad if you get slapped in the face. ]

……

After the live broadcast room's camera was fixed on Ye Sheng, there were only two heated discussions in the room.

Firstly, the netizens in the live broadcast room felt it was novel during the initial period, and secondly, they had witnessed Ye Sheng’s methods and abilities.

At other times, the live broadcast room seems to be peaceful and tranquil.

After all, this exam is held on a weekday, and although netizens love to watch the show, they also have to work and live.

This time, Ye Sheng seemed to be looking for someone, which attracted the attention of most netizens.

The netizens in the live broadcast room started discussing it again.

Ye Sheng was bored as she scrolled down the ranking list. She leaned against the tree wall with her eyes half closed.

In fact, some netizens guessed correctly that Ye Sheng was indeed looking for someone on the points ranking list.

She was looking for Shi Luo.

These days she has been hunting star beasts and looking for food, but she doesn't know if this virtual jungle is too big or if the two of them are just unlucky.

The two of them haven't met yet, Ye Sheng sighed as he flipped through the pages.

"It's so annoying. Is Luo Luo and I so unlucky? We haven't met each other yet."

It was precisely because of this bad thing that the smile on Ye Sheng's lips faded a little.

Her fingers kept flipping down, quickly skimming through the unfamiliar names one by one.

And those unfamiliar names on the points ranking list may very well be her classmates in the future.

Anyone who can make it onto the points ranking list will definitely be admitted to the Silver Wolf Star First Scout School.

As for those who are not on the list, I don’t know, they may be admitted.

After all, the number of students admitted to the Silver Wolf Star First Scout School is different each time.

Maybe the last time they wanted to recruit 6000 people, then the first 6000 people with the highest scores would be admitted to the Silver Wolf Star First Scout School.

But it is also possible that only 2000 or even 1500 people will be recruited this time.

However, there are about 1000 people as a backup.

Ye Sheng flipped through the pages out of boredom, and finally saw a familiar name at number 672.

Shi Luo.

Ye Sheng stopped his finger and raised his eyebrows when he looked at Luo's name, which was ranked 672nd on the list.

Her gaze paused on the name for a few seconds, and she snapped her fingers in satisfaction.

A pair of golden eyes curved into a crescent shape.

"Well, little Luo Luo is really amazing. He actually made the list."

His tone was full of pride and doting.
