"Hey, isn't this the prickly Shen Qingzhu? Were you eliminated too?"
"… yes."
"You dare to blow up a drone, who gave you the courage?"
"Sorry, I'm bloated."
"In this case, then your punishment time should be doubled. Let me think about where to start asking... By the way, did you hear what Li Liang just said?"
"heard it."
"Is what he said true?"
"… yes."
"So, why do you want to package yourself as ruthless, lawless, and arrogant?"
"Because people bully the weak and fear the strong. Weak people will always be bullied."
"Although I am very curious about your past story, considering the special situation now, I won't ask you for now... tell me why you want to become a strong person."
"I don't want others to look down on me."
"Is that why?"
"Um."
"Disguise your true nature, be tough on the outside but soft on the inside, yet you still care so much about other people's opinions... Are you a Virgo?"
"… yes."
"Oh, let's talk about your relationship experience. How many love letters have you written so far?"
"One hundred and fourteen copies."
"So much? Tell us in detail."
"When I was four years old, I fell in love with the eldest sister next door, and then... "
Lin Qiye and the others were running through the mountains while listening to Shen Qingzhu's public execution.
"Good guy, Brother Chi is totally screwed this time." Baili Pangpang gasped heavily and laughed from time to time.
Lin Qiye looked at the gradually dimming sky and slowly spoke:
"Nearly five hours have passed since we entered Jinnan Mountain, and most of the people have been eliminated."
Cao Yuan turned to look at Baili Pangpang and said with some surprise: "Didn't you feel bad when you first came in? How can you still persist until now?"
"Even if I run and faint, I don't want to accept that punishment." Baili Pangpang seemed to have thought of something, and his face turned pale.
"You put it like that, and I'm even more curious about your secrets."
"… roll!"
After more and more recruits were dragged down the mountain, the number of drones on the mountain increased significantly. At first, there were only two or three drones chasing them, but now there are more than ten drones appearing at every turn!
Fortunately, the instructors had some conscience and did not let the drones surround them from all sides. They would always give them a gap to break out of and give them a chance to escape.
The drone chases them for a while, squeezing their physical strength, and then disappears for a while, giving them a short period of time to recover their physical strength. The cycle repeats, leaving them wandering on the edge of their limit again and again.
Now, Lin Qiye finally understood why this was called extreme training.
The deeper they went into Jinnan Mountain, the slower the three of them moved. Baili Pangpang kept stumbling behind Lin Qiye and the others, his face getting paler.
"If that doesn't work, just sit down and take a rest." Lin Qiye keenly noticed Baili Pangpang's condition and said with a frown.
"No... no... I want to run..."
Baili Fatty's eyes were unfocused, and his clothes were soaked with sweat. He moved forward step by step, his eyes full of persistence.
"Damn it...why haven't I fainted yet..."
Cao Yuan pondered for a moment, "How about you hit the tree?"
"… I fear pain."
Baili Pangpang waved his hand, "You guys run first, I think I'm really going to die... I fainted after a while, you don't have to come to save me."
"Actually, we didn't even want to save you..."
Baili Pangpang's expression twitched and he coughed twice, "It hurts my heart, it hurts my heart... um... "
Baili Pangpang touched his chest, and before he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and fainted.
Cao Yuan stepped forward to check, and nodded to Lin Qiye, "It's okay, I just fainted from exhaustion."
"Well, let's go."
Lin Qiye turned around and continued walking towards the forest.
To be honest, Lin Qiye himself was almost at his limit. He had been cross-country carrying loads for five consecutive hours. Although he took many breaks in between, his body was not that strong after all. Now his eyes were starting to make stars appear.
"Would you like to take a rest?" Cao Yuan looked at Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye took a deep breath and shook his head, "I can still persist."
"Why are you working so hard?"
"Only by breaking the limit can one become stronger." Lin Qiye said calmly, "And only by becoming stronger can one survive. Only by living can one go back in the future..."
"Go back? Where?"
Lin Qiye shook his head and did not answer.
"If you just want me to help you clean up your sins in the future, there is no need to please me so much." Lin Qiye suddenly said.
"Um?"
"If this is a deal, you just have to pay enough."
"A deal... So that's how you see it?"
"if not?"
"...Don't you have many friends?"
"I have been a heretic since I was a child."
"What a coincidence, so am I." Cao Yuan said calmly, "But it's because of this that we can become friends, isn't it?"
"The last person who wanted to be friends with me was beheaded by my own hands, and the last one was put into the monster's mouth by my own hands. Now the grass on the grave should be half a meter high." Lin Qiye said expressionlessly. .
"... When is your friend's risk so high?"
"right."
"Actually, we are pretty much the same." Cao Yuan shrugged, "Not only did I kill a dozen friends who were good friends with me, but I also killed everyone in the village. After that day, in the village where I grew up, There's not even a dog left."
"...Don't compare yourself to me. From the looks of it, I'm far behind you."
"You are very special. Even if you put aside Master Jin Chan's prediction about you, you are still very special." Cao Yuan looked into Lin Qiye's eyes, "Actually, if possible, I still hope that our two heretics can become friend."
Lin Qiye was silent for a moment and pointed at Baili Pangpang, who was lying dead behind him, "What about him?"
"Him?" Cao Yuan smiled, "Don't you think... he is also a heretic in a sense?"
"Yes, he is extremely stupid and extremely rich."
"Incisive."
…
Soon after, two instructors carried a stretcher to the unconscious Baili Pangpang and said in surprise:
"This little fat guy actually persisted until now, and he even fainted by himself."
Another instructor shook his head with regret: "What a pity. I thought I could hear some gossip about the Baili family. I heard that the private lives of the young masters of these aristocratic families are very messy!"
"Hey, forget it, just carry it down."
"Huo! It's so heavy!"
The two of them carried Baili Pangpang onto the stretcher and ran down the mountain.
On the stretcher, Baili Pangpang, who was lying like a dead pig, snorted twice, quietly opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth...
At the foot of the mountain.
"Seven hours have passed. How many people are left?" Instructor Hong walked to the tactical tent and asked.
Several instructors who were staring at the screen counted and replied:
"There are still sixteen more. Most of them are Lianjiazi or special forces. The others... Hiss, Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan are actually still on the field. It's a bit unexpected."
"Although they are good at fighting, their physical fitness is not their strong point. If I guess correctly, they are almost at their limit."
Instructor Hong looked up at Jinnan Mountain, which was plunged into darkness, and said slowly.
