“Camera 21, 36 move forward, prepare for the post-competition interviews. What are you standing in a daze for?! Quickly, quickly––”
Outside the seventh elimination match arena, the sound of the directors giving orders could be heard everywhere!
The on-site stage manager felt like they were waking up from a dream!
The only surviving trainee walked out of the flames. The mechanical armor over his body was almost completely destroyed, and the metal parts at his elbow flickered with sparks. The rose thorn bayonet was at Wu Jin’s back, and the short knife that Wei Shi had returned to him was at his waist.
The scabbed wounds all over his body were like badges of meritorious service, and the broken, blood red skirt fluttered as he strode forward. Small glowing embers from laser fuel drifted down from Wu Jin’s waist and gradually disappeared into the ruins.
Countless cameras flocked towards Wu Jin!
“Pay attention to capturing a snapshot. Don’t get right into his face, go for a wide shot!” The assistant director’s tone was gleeful, “We’ll start the pre-sale for the official photo album from this competition round tonight, and this photo of Little Witch will be released to the public to hype up the sales. Where’s Caesar and Wei Shi? Go and dig them out of their life-saving capsules and take a beautiful close-up of them all together!”
The little assistant beside him was anxious as they commanded the field AI, “Get Caesar out, he’s in the biggest life-saving capsule over there. Contestant Wei...”
“Where’s Contestant Wei? Who pushed Contestant Wei’s life-saving capsule away? What?! He jumped out on his own?!”
At the edge of the venue, the representative from their sponsor, Floating Entertainment, was currently chatting with the Crosson Show crew.
A Crosson Show stage manager who wore a checkered shirt and black framed glasses was admiring the Floating Group’s tech from the bottom of his heart, “So ‘Painted Skin’ made use of a biometric gel? The chip is near the temple, and the motherboard’s BIOS reads the contestants’ facial features, performing fit calculations to achieve the desired appearance... I see! What? It’s already been put into daily use?”
The little stage manager was both surprised and excited, “... Floating City science and technology has already restored many patients of radiation sickness to their original appearance under a public welfare publicity project... It will be put into commercial use on a large scale from the next quarter... That’s wonderful!”
The Floating City representative smiled and made a pitch, “Floating City has changed and is different from the past. Its biotechnology and tourism are both worth investing in. The board of directors has funded a lot of research into the genetic industry, and all of this is based on the results of our laboratories. Floating City’s laboratory is also known as the ‘new leading laboratory’ in the field of biology.”
The little stage manager gave a thumbs up, “The board of directors is far-sighted.”
The representative laughed loudly, “Not just that! Our chairman is here, too.”
The little stage manager looked closely. Hey! What chairman of the board? Wasn’t that the place where the contestants’ life-saving capsules were stacked up? At the moment, they didn’t have enough manpower to open up all the cabins...
Wei Shi was currently heading their way.
The little stage manager, “......” Wait a minute, who’d opened up the hatch for Contestant Wei? Hadn’t Contestant Wei been eliminated by the collapsing building? How come he didn’t look injured at all!
