Chapter 173: One Arrow Many Birds (Part 1)
“What is the problem?” Wang Wen examined it calmly.
The handsome young man removed a large, gleaming ring with a click. He held it up to Wang Wen and asked, “Were you the one who rejected my proposal?”
Wang Wen looked at Mi Lailai, beaming proudly in the distance, and firmly denied it. “It was not me. I don’t even know who anyone is.”
Before returning to the team, the handsome young man put away the ring, nodded, and turned around to leave. “I will keep an eye on you to see what draws her to you.”
Wang Wen’s heart was utterly shattered.
Did he not understand him?
Wang Wen had already stated that he did not know him, so why did he need to keep an eye on him?
The discussion ended there.
At the end of the day, there was still work to be done.
Wang Wen took a thick stack of printing paper from his backpack and distributed it to each of the five people according to Chen Hansheng’s schedule.
He wandered back to the front of the field. “This is the majority of the situations that the target’s rare item, Quick-acting Antidote, might encounter at this time,” Wang Wen said loudly. “First, we will assess each team’s level. Obtaining a Quick-acting Antidote will not be too difficult. It is possible to come across it on any level below the 200th floor. You should be on alert in case you encounter the pre-trigger conditions after you have memorized the contents of the paper. Follow the steps as closely as possible and search a few more times. There is a good chance you will find something. I only need ten items from a single team. It is up to you whether you want to leave the tower or continue climbing after you find them.”
As soon as he was done speaking, a large number of drones flew over the field.
Each of the hundred teams used a different tool to record the contents on the paper.
Wang Wen even witnessed the use of the Certificate of Evil.
When he pressed the red button, Mi Lailai immediately sensed something. She covered her skirt and turned to yell, “Who did that? Do you want to die?”
The four boys surrounding the elite team vanished in an instant. They carried a fatty covered in sweat in their hands after a few jumps.
“Captain Mi Lailai, I am sorry,” Fatty said as he was thrown to the ground. “That was not my intention. I just wanted to look at the information on the paper and enter the tower. I bore no ill intention.”
“Whether it is intentional or not is not up to you.” From above, Mi Lailai reached out her hand and said, “Give it to me.”
With trembling hands, the little fatty handed the Certificate of Evil to her.
Mi Lailai examined the situation by pressing the green button.
Then she requested that the drone store it. She turned around and handed him a new one. “Because we are in the same group, I will not make things difficult for you. Even if you want to use that prop, you must hide where no one can see you. Understand? Another band-tempered person would have killed you.”
Fatty, who felt like he had just survived a disaster, was overjoyed. He kept the prop and continued to bow in thanks. Finally, he was picked up by the elite team’s men and thrown to the back like a chicken.
Wang Wen remained emotionless, allowing them to go back and forth.
When everyone gradually quieted down…
He chose the teams that used relics to record the paper’s contents to go into the tower first.
Wang Wen would not compel the other teams that lacked suitable relics or were unwilling to spend money on them to purchase them. He would give them time to memorize and remember when to enter the tower.
That week, he planned to remain at the academy and communicate with the resource team, which could leave the tower anytime.
The first collaboration provided him with a target that was easy to see.
If nothing out of the ordinary occurred, he would get 1,000 Quick-acting Antidotes by the weekend.
This type of rare low-level item would usually have a high market demand.
Unlike common items like Fuel Cards and Ginseng Fruits, which were unnecessary, there would undoubtedly be as many Quick-acting Antidotes that could cure all types of poisons.
Not to mention the numerous vicious mechanisms and poisons throughout the wild.
Even if one were unlucky, the poison gas chamber on the 69th floor would appear much more frequent.
After all, not everyone could go through the poison gas chamber as quickly as Wang Wen.
A supply of 1,000 Quick-acting Antidotes would cost around 50 million points.
Even though there was still a gap between Chief Gu’s requirements and the resource team, the latter played a significant role.
The requirement was that they collect 1,000 Quick-acting Antidotes over the weekend.
The first team left the tower early the following morning.
Many were injured when they returned to the academy via the portal.
Wang Wen was speechless after he realized what they had gone through.
Those team members were honest. They described how they came across the pre-trigger condition mentioned in the paper on the 50th floor. They rushed through the steps and obtained more than 20 Quick-acting Antidotes.
That was truly terrifying.
They were already veterans from the 200th floor, but they were nearly wiped out on the 50th floor.
A slow-moving, slow-changing robot that relied solely on its area of effect to kill had harmed them every time it attacked.
Wang Wen stated in the paper that if they encountered an area-effect enemy, they could maintain a mid-range attack from 300 meters away or a ground attack from 10 meters above the ground.
Finally, they admitted that they had no idea the enemy was an area-of-effect type of enemy before the battle began.
They only realized it was an area-of-effect enemy once they were already in the area.
Wang Wen almost spat blood out.
Even if they lacked intelligence, they should be able to understand the test.
What did they think when they saw the enemy attack? Did no one say anything?
It was dangerous!
Wang Wen was utterly speechless.
He immediately set up a formation on the field and practiced it himself.
He simulated most likely battle scenarios and taught them how to deal with them one at a time.
Those experiences should have resulted from the tower climbers’ understanding of the battles.
