The huge training room broke out into whispers.
Wu Jin’s expression remained unchanged as he nodded slightly to the crowd.
In reality, his mind was turning quickly.
There was no doubt that someone had taken out all his clips with a card.
At this time, there were 52 survivors, and the 52 trainees held a total of 59 cards. Clover cards could remove any player’s camera time––
Around him, the looks Wu Jin received that had originally been curious started to hold some subconscious alertness.
The trainees closest to Wu Jin seemed sympathetic, but their pupils clearly held caution and awe.
The performance of ‘Leica’ in the 60 to 48 segment had been commendable. He’d been resourceful and active in front of the camera, and he’d also fought the female ghost on his own away from the show’s cameras. However, if the position of ‘Leica’ became precarious, he might be forced to take someone else’s identity in order to continue qualifying.
There were only a few people in the entire training room who could compete against him.
In front of the floor to ceiling windows, the AI director turned off the display after the talent show episode finished playing. The crowd seemed to suddenly come back to their senses, and several trainees who’d built good relationships with Leica came to comfort him one after another, showing their card colors naturally or half unconsciously and letting him check.
“Who plotted secretly? It’s too shameless. Clover cards can cut camera time, but I only have a hearts card here and can’t help Brother Leica...”
Even the King of Hearts who was ‘September’ in disguise revealed his ‘hearts card’.
Wu Jin’s gaze swept over September lightly.
The King of Hearts had eliminated the previous ‘September’ and should have at least two cards on hand––
Wu Jin’s brows twisted in a frown.
A strong sense of disconnect poured in.
For any survival show trainee, even if their faces and identities changed, their fighting style would tend to stabilize and become sharper as they matured.
The King of Hearts was good at assassination, pursuing morbidly alluring rules, and playing games of life and death that left only one survivor. If the King of Hearts had really used his card to attack him, it was slightly contrary to his combat habits from the previous round.
Wu Jin’s eyes shifted, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind––
“60 to 12, players are free to form alliances in the rest area.”
If K had allies in this round.
If––
From nearby, Caesar roared and charged into the crowd.
Wei Shi effortlessly stopped Caesar’s charge, blocking him, then letting him go expressionlessly. Wu Jin could see clearly that in the seventh elimination match, contestants would mutually peel off each other’s skin and cheat each other. Only the big boss was still calm and idle, acting just as he normally did when he took the rabbit out for a walk.
Caesar lowered his voice and extended a helping hand without a second thought, “If you need help, just shout. I’ll always be on call.”
Wu Jin made a fist bump gesture to express his thanks.
Caesar was still not at ease. On the surface, he appeared grumpy and annoyed, but he secretly pulled Wu Jin to a corner near the wall that avoided all the cameras and repeated to Wu Jin again, “Listen to me. There’s something wrong with the rules in this game. If you eliminate a player, you can put on their skin. This face of mine is––”
