"Survivor" Xu Xi must have another plan
The players who manage to qualify for the Mixed-Team Competition are all formidable opponents.
The other party must have had a reason for doing this.
However, everyone still wanted to play it safe, Young Man in a Hoodie's actions were too risky for them.
Only the blue-eyed youth's eyes flickered, a thoughtful look crossing his face.
"Alright, then follow me." The slovenly man led the players away into the distance.
Xu Xi watched their retreating figures, then turned back to look at the boats moored on the shore.
The only way to get in and out of the island is by boat, and the Production Team only prepared one boat.
While the details of this Dungeon are still unclear, is it possible that... the final solution is to leave this haunted island by taking this ship?
Isn't that how it's always portrayed in horror movies?
Xu Xi glanced at the box filled with bones and the unfinished blessing runes on it, then turned and walked towards the ship without looking back.
Unsurprisingly, the skeletons in that box were some of the former victims.
An island that buries the remains of tens of thousands of massacred people—who knows, this Dungeon might just be Battle Royale.
Only a fool would stay here and wait to die.
Since the slovenly man couldn't take him back ahead of time, he decided to sail back himself.
Along the way, the staff were busy setting up temporary accommodations, and no one paid attention to the whereabouts of the contestant who had voluntarily withdrawn from the competition.
After all, who would have thought that someone would secretly take the boat away?
Having successfully entered the Cockpit, Xu Xi studied the options carefully and finally found the automatic mode in the driving mode selection.
So the staff who were still diligently organizing supplies on the shore glanced over without realizing it and saw their Production Team's boat inexplicably sail away.
"???"

"... Come over here and change into your prison uniforms."
A familiar voice rang in her ears, Xu Xi silently looked up.
Okay, he was overthinking it. There's no such thing as an easy shortcut.
The ship had only been sailing for about ten minutes when a hazy fog enveloped it, followed by a loss of consciousness.
Is it that you can't leave early, or you have to wait until a certain time to leave, or is leaving by boat an inherently flawed method of customs clearance?
No matter what, he's determined to be this fool, sigh.
However, there is still a problem.
Xu Xi suddenly realized that the timeline for his Rollback was not after he applied to withdraw from the competition.
So does this prove that his only option to survive is to participate in the competition?
Xu Xi pondered for a moment, then slowly raised her hand. "I request to withdraw from the competition."
No, his rebellious streak kicked in; he wanted to see what would happen if he withdrew from the competition.

[What did I just hear? What is this Huaguo doing? (IP: Kimchi Country)]
[Wow, this is allowed to withdraw from the competition? The director actually agreed to it? (IP Hans Country)]
[How could it be so easy to beat the game? This Huaguo player's approach is incredibly unwise (IP: Beautiful Country)]
[But those challenges sound incredibly difficult. If Huaguo players choose to withdraw, wouldn't they be avoiding all the dangers? I think that might be a viable way to succeed (IP Kangaroo Country)]
[Not necessarily. Although those Production Team crew members are NPCs, the Dungeon doesn't stipulate that NPCs can't die (IP: Russia)]
Unlike foreign netizens who either expressed confusion or doubt, Huaguo's comments were much more relaxed.
[Whenever I can't understand Xu Xi's moves, all I need to do is question my own intelligence (IP Huaguo)]
[Xu Xi always appears so calm, oh, this damn sense of security is like having a cheat code (IP Huaguo)]
[Tsk tsk, these foreigners still know too little about Xu Xi (IP Huaguo)]
[Is this Dungeon going to be filled with vengeful spirits committing murder? Tens of thousands of victims, how much resentment must they have? (IP from Huaguo)]
[You know what, it's actually quite possible. I think Boss Xu Xi's decision was pretty right. Only an idiot would willingly go in to die. (IP Huaguo)]

The Production Team.
Jiang Jin looked at the big screen in surprise. "Xu Xi has made a choice that surprised everyone."
"Withdrawing voluntarily is something I never imagined," Yao Han remarked. "Is Xu Xi trying to avoid those challenges?"
Luo Zongyun stroked his chin. "Players from other countries are probably watching and waiting. If this method really works, I think many players will be 'afraid' and choose to withdraw from the competition."
Lin Miao shook his head. "Dungeon generally don't have loopholes like this for players to exploit. Even if all players quit, there will definitely be other unforeseen circumstances that force them to continue, so..."
She gave the Young Man in a Hoodie representing Huaguo on the screen a meaningful look, and said with certainty, "Xu Xi must have other plans."
