The trial-takers did not say anything. In the face of benefits, the six survivors finally worked together.
The corner of Mr. Zhou’s mouth began to Twitch unnaturally. Although he tried his best to maintain a smile, number one’s words had clearly offended him.
Whether it was on the ship or on the island, Mr. Zhou had absolute authority in the team.
The armed bodyguards were tempted by the high price he paid and were under his command.Not to mention the workers on the ship, everyone was counting on him to call the satellite phone for help after they got to the Research Institute.
When everyone’s lives were at his mercy, they all listened to him. But now, number one was actually negotiating terms with him. One must know that in Mr. Zhou’s eyes, the trial-takers were just like hired workers, cannon fodder prepared to be brought to the island to die!
Whether it was social status or other things, Mr. Zhou admitted that he was far from these people.
On the ship, song qingxiao had exposed a part of his intentions, causing him to suspect the identity of this group of people. He had no choice but to feign civility. However, Mr. Zhou was polite on the surface, but in his heart, he did not think much of these people.
Mr. Zhou, even though number one had already seen Mr. Zhou’s sinister gaze, he still acted as if nothing had happened. He smiled gently and said,”
“What kind of benefits can you give us if you let us go?”
The atmosphere suddenly froze. Mr. Zhou’s eyelids twitched, and Zhou xueli frowned.
The remaining bodyguards shifted their guns and pointed their muzzles at the participants.
Mr. Zhou forced a smile, as if he didn’t see this scene. He wanted to teach these ‘disobedient’ people a lesson.
Number one smirked and glanced at number three. The woman, who had been silent the whole time, understood him. She flashed and suddenly disappeared.
hiss! the workers and scholars sitting around gasped. When the crocodile’s body exploded, No. 3, who was standing closest to the crocodile’s body, had also suddenly disappeared at the critical moment. However, in the panic at that time, everyone had seen this scene, but it was immediately covered by greater panic, so they did not remember this scene.
Now that everyone had returned to a safe position, the scene of number three disappearing on the spot once again immediately made them feel uneasy.
Mr. Zhou’s expression changed drastically, and he instinctively struggled to sit up. The bodyguards also felt their hair stand on end. They looked left and right with a vigilant look.
The trial-takers sat together and laughed as well, but they were all wary of number three.
This should be one of number three’s special abilities, the ability to become invisible or teleport. This kind of ability was simply impossible to guard against. In a fight, her elusive appearance could easily bring a fatal blow to the opponent.
Especially in this trial, with her sudden disappearance, no one could guarantee that she wouldn’t be the next number seven. She would push the others into the mutant creatures and sacrifice them.
Song qingxiao gulped and rubbed her arm. There was no change in the surrounding wind and grass. Number three seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
She took a deep breath, and a thought came to her mind. If the naked eye couldn’t capture her existence, what about spiritual power?
Thinking of this, she didn’t dare to hold back anymore. She mobilized her spiritual power and spread it out. As long as there was a living creature, there would be a certain fluctuation. That feeling was very mysterious.
She didn’t need to look with her eyes, but she could tell who was there purely by feeling. She ‘felt’ that the moment No. 3 disappeared, a fluctuating divine sense rushed in the direction of the bodyguard.
Two or three seconds later, the bodyguards were still looking for number three as if they were facing a great enemy. The next moment, number three had appeared behind Wolf one. She was much smaller than Wolf one. She had one hand on Wolf one’s shoulder and the other holding a knife. She must have taken the opportunity to take it from her when they were on the boat.
She climbed onto Wolf one’s body and pointed the tip of her knife at the artery on Wolf one’s neck. She greeted him with a smile,”
“Hello,” he said.
The moment No. 3 appeared, Wolf one’s pupils shrank and his body tensed up. On the contrary, song Qing heaved a long sigh of relief.
In this trial, the use of spiritual power was of little value, but it was extremely profound, and at this moment, it was fully displayed.
The Esper abilities of the trial-takers were like the food chain of nature, intricately linked.
Under the scan of his mental power, the elusive number three was not invincible. Unfortunately, number six was exposed too early and died the earliest.
After Wolf one was captured, the crowd was in an uproar. All the bodyguards turned their guns back in shock and aimed at No. 3.
But even with so many guns pointed at her, number three was still very calm. Her calmness was backed by confidence. She came and went without a trace. Before these people fired, she might have already killed Wolf one and returned to her original position.
“This … What kind of trick is this?”
Some of the workers couldn’t help but shout out. Mr. Zhou’s expression was also uncertain.
The reaction of this group of people was beyond his expectations. After the bullets could no longer deter everyone, Mr. Zhou knew that he should change his attitude and way of treating these people.
When they were on the boat, Mr. Zhou was arrogant and did not care about human lives. Now, the tables had turned, and he could no longer maintain his pride.
“Don’t hurt our relationship.”
Mr. Zhou took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He waved his hand as if he didn’t see the tense atmosphere between the bodyguards and number three.
“We’re all on the same side.”
This was the attitude he revealed to number one. After seeing the Golden light from number one, the mysterious drawing from number two, the sudden disappearance of number three, the purple light from number four, and song Qing’s skill, Mr. Zhou had already guessed that this group of people was not to be trifled with after seeing number Seven’s transformation.
It was not a good time to start a conflict. There were only six bodyguards left around him. On this Island full of danger, every loss was a huge threat to Mr. Zhou.
“Let’s talk this out, everything can be discussed.” He gestured for the bodyguards to put down their guns. However, at this critical moment, the bodyguards were hesitant. Perhaps the temptation of money worked, as the veins on Wolf one’s forehead popped out. He paused for a moment, raised his chin, and gestured for the crowd to put their guns away.
He tried to relax himself, and number three laughed,”
“Mr. Zhou is right,”
The two sides came into contact for a moment, then quickly retreated. The trial-taker had used his strength to intimidate Mr. Zhou, so that he could ‘talk nicely*. Naturally, number one stopped while he was ahead.
Mr. Zhou’s eyelids twitched as he glanced at Zhou xueli. Zhou xueli understood his gaze and raised her head, saying,
“You guys come over and discuss.”
When the other workers saw this scene, they dared to be angry but did not dare to speak up. At this time, it was already destined that the strong would be respected, and the right to speak would always be in the hands of those with superior strength.
Wolf one frowned. Mr. Zhou seemed to know what he was thinking. He had a few bodyguards stand guard outside. Wolf one knew how to control people, so he motioned for Wolf one to follow him. Song qingxiao and the others moved closer to Mr. Zhou, waiting for him to talk about his conditions.
She had a vague premonition that this conversation might give her an unexpected surprise..
