On the sea surface not far from the dock deck, there was a sudden crash, and a water column with a diameter of three meters rose into the sky like a fountain.
Everyone was attracted by the movement and looked over.
The water column rushed to a height of more than 20 meters, then exhausted its power and scattered in all directions, but a fish-man emerged from it.
"Look, mermaid!"
Some sharp-eyed players exclaimed.
This fish-man is different from the fish-man who just appeared on the pier setting up a coral table. It looks like a mermaid from mythology.
The lower body is a fish tail with beautiful lines and golden scales. The upper body is a human beauty with fair skin and a pair of large breasts.
As a member of the sea tribe, it could not wear silk and linen clothes, so it only used two shells to cover its chest, and around its neck was a string of cherry-sized pearls, each one round and round.
If this jewelry were brought to the human world, it would not be a problem to sell it for tens of millions or hundreds of millions.
"so beautiful!
Wei Dongmai was amazed.
The mermaid made a deft somersault and landed on the dock deck, then twisted her waist and walked over.
She has long green slightly curly hair, like waves.
"There are seven Devil Mushroom Tasting Competitions in total. I will host them. Now, please invite each Trojan team to send out the first taster."
The mermaid held a bone as a microphone. It was one foot long and thick as an adult's wrist. It belonged to an unknown beast. It looked ordinary, but speaking to it, the sound could be amplified several times and transmitted clearly. into everyone's ears.
On the pier, there was a lot of noise, everyone was discussing candidates.
On Sun Yuan's side, all the team members looked at him.
"What should I do if he chooses me?"
Yu Huai's face was covered with sweat, and he was even more nervous than when he was checking his scores after the college entrance examination.
"Nah, seven games is too much. With my status in the team, I will definitely not be able to escape, so I might as well take the initiative to ask for a fight. It would also be a good way to increase Sun Yuan's favorability."
Manager Feng was struggling and was about to recommend himself when he heard Sun Yuan speak.
"First game, I'm on!"
Sun Yuan's statement shocked everyone.
"no!"
Zhen Yu and Zhao Siyu spoke out their objections without even thinking.
Although the two of them regarded Sun Yuan as their thigh, they still really thought about him.
"You are the leader, you can't go up!"
Qin De was the second to express his stance. After speaking, he still blamed himself a little. He reacted too slowly and should have been the first to express his stance.
"Sun Yuan!"
Although Li Wan only called Sun Yuan's name, his concern was beyond words.
She likes Sun Yuan and doesn't want to see him put himself in danger.
Others also spoke up one after another to persuade Sun Yuan not to be reckless. In fact, people like Yu Huai and Li Li wished that Sun Yuan would hurry up.
"The leader is not testing us, is he?"
Manager Feng looked at Sun Yuan silently.
"Stop trying to persuade me. Seven games require seven players. If I don't take the initiative, how can I have the nerve to let others play?"
In addition to this idea, Sun Yuan also planned to get off to a good start and give everyone some confidence. After all, he had seen all the poisonous mushrooms in this game and would never be poisoned by accidentally eating them.
Furthermore, as the leader of the regiment, Sun Yuan had to take the lead if he wanted to establish his authority.
"Invite each team to have the first taster come forward. If the player does not have a team, then participate as a lone wolf."
The Mermaid host urged: "If a team still has no players in line after one minute, it will be deemed as a forfeit."
"A solemn reminder that the consequences of abstaining are very serious. After three times, the entire team will be directly punished."
The atmosphere on the dock suddenly became depressing.
"Sun Yuan, even if you are going to play, it shouldn't be the first one!"
Ji Shihan persuaded and was about to pick a cannon fodder when Zhen Yu suddenly bit his lips and stepped out of the crowd, surpassing Sun Yuan and walked to the coral dining table.
Uh-huh!
Everyone looked over.
"Captain, I'll do the first game!"
Zhen Yu's voice was trembling.
She is afraid!
But there are some things that you have to do even if you are afraid.
"Nangong Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Before Sun Yuan could say anything, Ye Lin, the high school student who behaved like a middle school student before, shouted worriedly: "Go back quickly, men should do this kind of thing!"
Ye Lin said while staring at the male members of Sun Yuan's side: "Are you still men? A girl actually takes the lead in such a dangerous game?"
"Who are you? Are you in charge?"
Manager Feng immediately cursed back.
"Zhen Yu, have you made up your mind?"
Sun Yuan asked.
"Um!"
Zhen Yu nodded firmly.
The weak will naturally be attracted to the strong and gather around them. This is why there are so many beauties around Sun Yuan.
Because beautiful women are also a resource, they have a greater chance of survival than ugly women.
A few days ago, Zhen Yu could rely on her sweet and pure image to get Sun Yuan's care, but then she couldn't because women like Ji Shihan and Jiang Shudan were no worse than her.
Zhen Yu is less than twenty years old and has become a first-line anchor. She has no problem with her IQ and EQ. She knows that she must perform well to gain Sun Yuan's approval.
Fight fight
Zhen Yu knew that she was a rookie and would lose no matter who she fought with. So she finally encountered a mushroom eating competition, so of course she couldn't miss it.
Isn’t it just a comparison of courage!
I have.
And even if he was poisoned to death, he should have walked away peacefully, at least he wouldn't have had his body chopped into pieces by the enemy.
"Good luck!"
Sun Yuan did not refuse.
At the same time, he was somewhat impressed by this female anchor.
When you see an opportunity and risk your life, you have the courage to stand up. This awareness is stronger than that of many men.
Ji Shihan and Jiang Shudan felt chilled when they saw that Sun Yuan actually agreed to Zhen Yu's participation in the battle.
This means that beauty is not of high value in Sun Yuan's eyes.
Zhao Siyu, who was average-looking, breathed a sigh of relief.
fine,
I feed on my brain.
"Get the devil mushroom!"
The mermaid host shouted loudly.
A group of six fishmen came over, shouting "Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey," carrying a shell plate that was bigger than a double bed, and placed it on the coral dining table.
This plate is filled with colorful fungi.
Many players immediately covered their noses.
Many of these devil mushrooms exude a strange smell, and when mixed together, it becomes even more unpleasant.
vomit! vomit!
A few players felt their stomachs churn and had the urge to vomit.
"The first taster is asked to eat a devil mushroom within three minutes!"
After the beauty finished talking to the host, a clock projection appeared above the pier and began to count down from three minutes.
"Zhenyu, come on!"
Manager Feng encouraged the female anchor, fearing that she would shrink on the spot.
Gudu!
Zhenyu felt her throat was dry and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty. She looked at so many mushrooms and was a little overwhelmed for a moment.
"What are you waiting for? Go look for mushrooms and try to pick ones with plain colors and normal shapes!"
Zhao Siyu reminded.
Some players have already moved, rushing to the shell plate and starting to look for mushrooms. Some players heard Zhao Siyu's words and immediately started to act as if they were waking up from a dream.
"Yes, according to common sense, the more common mushrooms are, the safer they are!"
Qin De shouted: "Go and grab it!"
"oh oh!"
Zhen Yu reacted and was about to take action when Sun Yuan called out to him.
"Wait, be careful of poisoning!"
Sun Yuan took out a pair of gloves from the old scalper's backpack and threw them to Zhen Yu: "Put them on!"
“…”
The nearby players looked even more nervous when they saw this scene, especially the testers who had touched the devil mushrooms with their hands, their faces turned green.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
One female player complained.
What if this thing is poisonous and can be spread through skin contact
"The leader of our group is your father. Do you want to care about our business?"
Qin De sneered: "And if you want to complain, blame your captain for not being careful enough!"
"Damn it, in this situation, you can find an angle to flatter the leader? I'm convinced, I'm convinced!"
Manager Feng surrendered.
Qin De can only be described as shameless.
"Isn't this a fact? Look at the pier, how many players have thought of this?"
Qin De pursed his lips.
Li Gongming, the leader of the white-collar group, Ye Lin, the high school student group, Du Ke, the young man who invited Jin Baixue, and the urban management personnel all thought of it.
Some of them are thoughtful, and some have experienced similar things. For example, the urban management personnel wear gloves when handling some problematic vegetable pulp in the market.
After Zhenyu put on the gloves, he immediately felt a sense of security and began to boldly rummage through the devil mushrooms, choosing the most ordinary-looking ones.
Snapped!
Zhen fish was slow, and a mushroom he was interested in was snatched away by a female white-collar worker.
"What are you doing?"
Zhenyu frowned.
The female white-collar worker ignored her at all and was still picking mushrooms.
Zhen Yu bit his lip and held back his anger.
There are many devil mushrooms in this shell plate, at least thousands. Each player can pick out four or five seemingly harmless devil mushrooms, but they are confused about which one to eat.
After all, I made the wrong choice. After one sip, I saw that the villain was still light, and the heavy one was sent away directly.
"Eat quickly, we're running out of time!"
Manager Feng was very nervous.
"I, Zhen Yu, have always had good luck since I was a kid, and it's no different this time!"
After Zhenyu cheered himself up, he relied on his feeling and picked up a devil mushroom as thick as a child's wrist.
It’s you!
When Zhenyu used to live broadcast, he drove a car with king oyster mushroom. This one looks similar to king oyster mushroom and should not be poisonous.
But just when Zhen Yu was about to eat it, Sun Yuan said, "Let's change it to another one. I think this one is poisonous!"
"ah?"
Zhen Yu was stunned.
Uh-huh!
Li Gongming, who was standing not far away, immediately stared over.
In his opinion, Sun Yuan was very strong, so what he said was definitely not without purpose. Maybe he had already observed some details
"How did you know?"
Ye Lin asked.
Sun Yuan ignored him, but looked at Zhen Yu and persuaded him again: "It feels like something is wrong. How about changing it to another one?"
“…”
Zhen Yu was confused.
Should I trust Sun Yuan? Or should you follow your own feelings
"Sun Yuan, don't talk too much. When it comes to gambling like this, let the taster make his own choice!"
Jin Baixue felt that Sun Yuan should not speak.
"I still feel like something's wrong with you!"
Ye Lin was unhappy: "Xiao Yu'er, don't listen to him, whatever you think comes to you, your luck is always good!"
As a female anchor, Zhen Yu has a personality label, that is, a little fairy with good luck.
"We're almost running out of time!"
Zhao Siyu reminded that the countdown has entered 60 seconds.
“…”
Zhen Yu was tangled, looking at the devil mushroom in her hand, she became unconfident, she looked at Sun Yuan again: "Captain, give me a reason!"
"No reason!"
Sun Yuan only said four words, concisely and to the point.
The devil mushroom chosen by Zhen Yu is called the ghost mushroom. After eating it, various nightmares and hallucinations will occur until he is frightened to death.
But he couldn't tell the reason, otherwise it would arouse suspicion.
"Which one to choose?"
Zhen Yu asked again.
"have no idea!"
Sun Yuan shook his head.
In fact, apart from this ghost ghost that can cause death, the other ones in Zhen Yu's hands are the most toxic, which is the skin cracking and bleeding all over the body. However, Sun Yuan has Ai's electric shock device and Angel's Love, which can completely cure it. .
“…”
Zhen Yu was helpless. Seeing that there was not much time left, he gritted his teeth and said: "Captain, since you think this is inedible, help me choose one!"
"Are you crazy?"
Ye Lin screamed, why should he let others control his life
"Captain, without your helping hand, I would have died in Gucheng University a long time ago, so this time, I believe in you!"
The devil mushroom that Zhen Yu wanted to eat the most was rejected by Sun Yuan. She thought any of the others would be fine, so she let Sun Yuan choose.
If he survives, his attitude of completely trusting Sun Yuan will definitely gain his approval and become a core member.
If he dies, just think that he picked it up for nothing these days, right
Most people would definitely hesitate at this time. After all, one word can determine the life or death of others. However, Sun Yuan's face was solemn, but his heart was very calm, because he was a beta player and was familiar with these devil mushrooms.
So he pretended to be confused, and when there were thirty seconds left in the countdown, he said, "Eat the thin one!"
Zhenyu, who was already aware, immediately stuffed the slender devil mushroom into his mouth.
Crunch! Crunch!
Little White Teeth chewed, and juice flowed out.
Huh!
It's actually a little sweet
But soon, Zhenyu's mouth became numb, and his two cheeks were visibly swollen.
"Damn it, it's poisonous!"
Qin De felt his scalp numb.
"It's over!"
Shen Jingran felt that Zhen Yu was about to suffer.
Other players couldn't care less about others, because as the countdown ended, the tasters from each team stuffed the selected devil mushrooms into their mouths.
Some did not chew it and swallowed it directly, while others held it in their mouths and pretended to try to get away with it.
In short, there are all kinds of people.
"Players please swallow the devil mushroom in your mouth, otherwise it will be deemed as a forfeit."
Beauty and host warning.
The organizers will not give players loopholes at all.
The female white-collar worker who robbed the Zhenyu Devil Mushroom found that there was no reaction after eating the stuff, and she immediately became happy: "Gongming, I... I seem to be fine?"
"Congratulations!"
As soon as Li Gongming finished speaking, the female white-collar worker's skin began to shrink, making her shrink instantly.
