Chapter 1656 - 1656 Lost It!

1656 Lost It!

After a day of fighting for their lives, the geniuses who usually spent their days learning in schools were truly struggling.

After all, most of these contestants studied at the Spirit Qi Occupation University.

Other than the occasional practical classes or the adventure camps they attended during their holidays, very few of them had truly experienced what it was like to have to survive in the wild.

Everything sounded simple at first.

All they had to do was survive for three days.

Moreover, after passing a check, they were also allowed to bring in fey storage boxes filled with items.

Besides a few of them who felt that they would be capable of surviving for three days with no food or drinks, almost all of them had brought substantial amounts of food.

Since the test was more difficult than usual in order to force the contestants to reveal their true characters, they were even allowed to bring some emergency recovery items to reduce the burden of healing-type spirit qi professionals.

The contestants had thought about it very simply, but after just half a day of facing the insect tides, all of their mindsets had changed.

In the face of such an overwhelming alien beast tide, a person’s individual strength was insignificant.

Half an hour ago, a smaller team of 200 people under Li Nao’s leadership headed toward the central territory.

But before they could regroup with the larger group and interact with Li Nao, a tide of abyss demons charged at them.

Even under the cover of firepower, the group lasted almost five minutes before being ripped to shreds.

None of the contestants were naive enough to believe that they were stronger than Sequence #97 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

This event allowed the people who recently joined Li Nao’s team with indignation to realize the importance of being part of a team.

Li Nao’s management was very strong, but he was also fair.

No matter who joined or what connections they had, Li Nao would assign them to guard the outermost layer of defense.

Hence, the teams on the outermost layers faced the greatest pressure and were also the most likely to die.

But because their safety was at risk, the teams at the edges would be truly willing to help the new teams who wanted to join the large group and become their replacement.

Moreover, Li Nao’s method would also continue to incentivize the spirit qi professionals who first joined him.

With this, he would be able to retain their loyalties.

He had already amassed over 20,000 subordinates who were divided into smaller groups of 50 or 60.

If the group only had around 50 or 60 people, Li Nao could punish one of them to make an example out of them.

But he could not do so with a group size of 20,000 people.

He did not know if any of them were powerful enough and also capable of countering him.

Moreover, impulsiveness could also result in him becoming the target of a group attack.

There was a limit to the number of opponents he could take on.

As long as he could keep his group under control, nothing should stop him from emerging as one of the ten survivors.

However, when he saw the giant sand castle that appeared in the sky, Li Nao was stupefied.

He had never heard of a dimensional lifeform that looked like this or that could control sand.

But if this was the work of a spirit qi professional, just how much power did this spirit qi professional have?

Moreover, why were the alien beast tides ignoring the sand castle?

After an exhausting day without a drop of water to drink or a grain of rice to eat, the members at the outermost layers lost it!

They hoped that the castle would not end up as an enemy.

All of them were concentrated in one location.

The castle would crush at least 5,000 people to death if it fell.

Meanwhile, the audience had been staring speechlessly at the flying castle for an entire day.

The longer they watched, the more they felt that Black had joined the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection by mistake.

No matter how astonishing the castle was, it became boring after looking at it for a long time.

However, the contestants did not have a bird’s eye view and were completely ignorant.

At that moment, the contestant standing next to Li Nao, who he designated as his second in command, asked, “Big Brother Li, why don’t we try and attack this castle to see what it’s made of?”

Another said, “Boss, I don’t think we should touch this castle before it tries to target us. After all, there was no mention of a sand castle in the test summary. It also doesn’t look like something produced by a dimensional lifeform.”

Li Nao took a deep breath.

Since he was at the center of the territory, there was no way he was endangered in any way by the alien beast tides.

However, the sand castle could fly. If it stopped above his head, he might be convinced to attack it.

Just as Li Nao was about to issue an order to investigate the sand castle, a contestant with a broken arm rushed over and said, “Boss, numerous Class 4 alien insects are attacking the west outermost wall. They should be coming from a Class 2 alien insect dimensional rift. We need to send reinforcements to that area. Otherwise, we will lose too many troops!”

Li Nao looked up at the sand castle and weighed his options before deciding to send reinforcements to the outermost wall first.

Since he had been chosen as a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection before, it meant that he had already passed the character test.

Although he was sly, he took responsibility for the team’s safety as their leader.

As for the sand castle, he would wait to see how the situation unfolded.

Otherwise, if an area did not have enough members to take on the alien beast tide, all the troops there would fill with fear and lose confidence. This would lower their capabilities and fighting spirits.

Although there were over 20,000 members in his team, only a day had passed.

The next two days would be the true uphill climb.

Li Nao said to the people next to him, “Go and patrol the surroundings and assess the power of the insect tides. Then, send a group of healing-type spirit qi professionals according to the situation in each area. Start at the west side.”

Lin Yuan was slightly shocked when he saw the defenses set up at the central territory.

But that shock soon changed to admiration.

Gao Feng glanced at the central territory and said, “The person leading the group is not bad. The defenses are set up in a star shape, and the troops at the center can provide reinforcements to any direction at any time. But it looks like their air defense is weakening!”
