Chapter XXVII
Shi Tao's chic flight here, other candidates may not have such good luck. Just over half an hour after the start www.biquge.info of the exam, there were casualties among the candidates!
However, this is not the result of xenogene!
A young candidate in his twenties happened to encounter a black panther xenomorph.
Although the Carboniferous Island is mostly inhabited by arthropods such as insects, there are also some birds, reptiles, and mammals present. It's just that they don't have a significant increase in size with the increase of oxygen content in the air like arthropods, so they are not in a strong position in the face of various giant insects that are larger than themselves......
This panther is one of them, and its ability is toxin! The claws and teeth of this panther are connected to venom glands that no other kind of people have, and any scratch or bite by him is fatal!
And this young candidate, with his dexterity and ability to release slime, finally captured the panther alive and successfully included it in the badge.
"Congratulations to this candidate for capturing the first xeno!" Shu Xinyi in the studio smiled: "Next, he only needs to bring the badge to the research base before it expires, and he can get a score!" ”
"Okay, let's cut to this side!" Zheng Xingchen said: "At the southern tip of the island, a candidate was attacked by xenomorphs......
After the drone left, the young man breathed a sigh of relief. He also knew that his performance might be broadcast live around the world just now, so he didn't dare to be sloppy for the sake of his image, and he still maintained a majestic stance after winning the battle. Seeing the camera fly away, he finally relaxed, sat on the ground, and gasped: "Oops, I'm tired...... Will my younger siblings just now see me fighting the xenos on TV? The young man smiled at the thought of his family in his hometown.
At this moment, an undetectable cold light shot out, and it accurately hit the young man's neck!
It was a very thin short needle, and the young man did not even feel pain, but felt an itch on the back of his neck, and reached out to touch it, but before he could reach his neck, he felt numb all over, had difficulty breathing, and his heart beat weakly, and he fell to the ground and lost his vitality......
"Huh? Terminal feedback, one candidate's heartbeat stopped! Zheng Xingchen in the studio was startled, the camera switched, and the drone that had just flown away flew back and photographed the young man's body......
"It's the candidate who just fought the Panther!" Shu Xinyi's beautiful eyes widened: "How could it be, he just won the ......"
Dr. Dawei frowned: "There are no obvious external injuries and signs of fighting, I'm afraid it was just rubbed by the claws of the black panther in the fight, and it was just poisoned......"
"Hey, it's a pity that he performed so well...... the host sighed a few times, focusing on the other candidates.
It's not that they're indifferent, it's that it happens every year...... Not to mention this dead candidate, even if he can be saved, the association will not interfere. Registering for the exam, entering this exam room to start, means that everything is on your own! This is the world of xenohunters!
After the drone flew away, a person jumped down from a tree in the distance, and if Shi Tao was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that he was the machine gun man who was looking for trouble for him at the bar!
The machine gun man walked over to the young man's body, pulled out the badge containing the panther from his hand, kissed it on his lips, and put it in his arms. Then he pulled out the needle from the young man's neck and carefully put it away.
"Boy, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame yourself for being too careless, this world has always been cruel!" With that, the machine gun man turned and left.
The rules of the first exam are very simple, just take three xenomorphs. As for whether this xenomorph is in the badge or not, or whether you caught it, there is actually no explicit requirement.
In other words, the association actually acquiesced in the snatching of prey among the candidates...... To go deeper, the distribution of storage badges is convenient for snatching, and you can also distinguish whether there are different props from the color, maybe the association is encouraging this kind of snatching!
In fact, there has been more than one looting on the island! Most of the candidates have already figured out the meaning behind the rules. But in view of the existence of the live broadcast, this kind of black gun behavior does not dare to be blatant. Although it is not strictly a foul, if you snatch the fruits of other people's labor in full view, it may make the public question the candidate's character, and even if you pass the exam, it will affect your future career.
Under this rule, more than 2,000 candidates with unique skills are fighting on this small island of more than 100 square kilometers, and their enemies are not only powerful xenomorphs, but also stronger and more cunning competitors!
However, there are also people who have no sense of the cruelty of this game...... Ahem...... We're not talking about some dragonfly rider in the sky, although he is the most heartless of all......
"I said, I've been walking for so long, why haven't I seen a xenomorph yet......" Ling Xinzhu complained with her skirt, the terrain on the island was rugged, and her feet were sore all the way, so she couldn't help but keep complaining.
Ah Han, who was exploring the way ahead, sank like water, and simply replied: "We're not very lucky......
"Bad luck, bad luck...... Ling Xinzhu looked at the time: "It's been more than an hour since we went to the island, if there were really enough xenos captured by more than 2,000 people on the island, we should have encountered it a long time ago, how bad is our luck?" ”
Ah Han looked back at Ling Xinzhu, stopped talking, and paused before saying, "Very bad!" ”
"Alas......" Miss Ling sighed, "If this continues, when will my father and mother see my heroic appearance in defeating the xenomorphs...... With so many candidates, if they don't have a good performance, they won't even give a lens......"
At this time, Ah Han suddenly raised his nose and sniffed, and said, "Soon, there are xenos on the left side of the front, and there is more than one!" ”
"Really?" Hearing this news, Ling Xinzhu suddenly came to his senses: "Quick! Fast! Let's get there, don't let them get away! ”
Ah Han nodded, opened the way ahead, and led Miss Ling forward.
"Oh, there's terminal feedback, two paired candidates have encountered multiple xenomorphs!" In the studio, Zheng Xingchen said excitedly: "This may be the biggest conflict between candidates and xenomorphs since the beginning of the exam!" Director, can you cut the camera through? ”
The recent camera drone flew over, and soon, a picture appeared on the big screen in the studio, two candidates, a man and a woman, surrounded by more than a dozen huge buzzing bumblebees hanging in the air, these wasps are half a meter long, according to the information fed back by the terminal, all of them are xenogeneous!
