Don't Worry, He'll Forfeit! 6k! (Continued)
Because they can only get a maximum of about 40 points a day, and the most they ever got was 64 points.
However, I later found that my physical fitness was declining too quickly, so I quickly stopped. Because the exam lasts for two weeks, if I can't persevere, for example, if I'm very good at the first few days but only get a few points in the following days, then the final result won't be good either.
Therefore, it's better to secure a good grade and then consistently take the exam.
This is also a conclusion that Kanzaki deduced from observing the scoring strategies of Ryuen and Katsuragi's groups.
For this exam, Class A and Class D jointly formed a seed group.
Although Ryuen and his team only earn about 40-46 cents a day, which doesn't seem like much, it's a steady income. Over time, it becomes a staggering number.
And there is also a typical example.
That is, Riku Utsunomiya, who had surged to fifth place in First Year Class C, experienced a decline in stamina yesterday and only scored 20 points.
I imagine things won't go too well today.
Therefore, only persistence will yield results.
Therefore, Kanzaki and Shibata also opted for a slower and more conservative approach.
Then they earned 40-50 points each day. Although they couldn't compare to the monsters like those from Kōenji and Albert's group, they were still considered to be among the top performers.
And now it's only the tenth day of the exam.
Most of the students are running out of energy, and some have even started to give up.
I gave up on participating in the daily check-in and score-collecting activities in the designated areas that I was required to attend.
Instead, they would spend one or two days exploring a specific area, and then rest the next day.
Larger groups began to lose members, while smaller groups began to accept the survival method of losing a little bit of points every day.
Therefore, under such circumstances, seeing someone still so powerful is somewhat enviable.
In particular, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is a student in Class C, and this time, Class B, where Kanzaki and his classmates are, teamed up with Class C for the exam.
Therefore, it is possible for the top players from each other to team up.
"But he initially teamed up with someone named Kanji Ike and Yukimura," Kanzaki calmly analyzed. "And I never imagined he could unleash such immense power."
Actually, I do feel a little regretful.
Since Kōenji was rented by other classes from the beginning, and Kiyotaka Ayanokoji teamed up with someone who was dragging them down, wouldn't Class B get no benefit from getting involved in this mess and dragging Class C down?
Of course, there was also a misjudgment here.
That is, even though Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is teamed up with two students who are dragging the team down, there is still a way for everyone to win together.
That is, to get Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's companions to forfeit. Then the two of them will team up with Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
All three are highly mobile and will surely make a name for themselves.
As it turned out, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's two companions did indeed forfeit. Then Kiyotaka Ayanokoji surged ahead, racking up points like crazy, 100 points a day—it was ruthless.
Or rather, they never imagined that Kiyotaka Ayanokoji was actually a monster no less than Rokosuke Kōenji.
And now they've even surpassed their scores. They've broken through their rankings.
"But it's not too late yet," Kanzaki said.
He's an athletic guy, but he's also quite capable in thinking. So if Ichinose is the class president, then he's the vice president who plays a supporting role.
"Let's go find Kiyotaka Ayanokoji now."
"Should we team up with him?" Shibata asked.
"Yes." Kanzaki nodded. "If we had teamed up with him from the beginning and then made his teammates forfeit, then with the three of us, we could have easily secured second place, if not first."
"But now, because it has been delayed for so many days."
"But it's not too late."
After forming a team, the scores will be split equally between the two sides.
The two groups currently have roughly the same score. Teaming up with them won't add any points for them.
However, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji can become an asset to their group at this time.
"But Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's stamina can't last that many days, right? Maybe she won't be able to keep it up today or even tomorrow." Shibata scratched his head and said.
In other words...
Although Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is currently very strong at racking up points, in the eyes of students who are prepared for a long battle, this effect can only last for a few days.
And this is only the tenth day of the exam, there are still four days left.
Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's physical strength will definitely be insufficient.
"He might not be able to hold on, but as long as he can hold on for one more day, it will be another day for us to score points."
"If he can hold on for one more day, we can get an extra 100 points, which is very attractive, isn't it?" Kanzaki said. "If he can't keep up physically, he can just forfeit, but the points will still be there."
This is Kanzaki and his team's idea.
Meanwhile, Shibata, in a good mood, began searching for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's location.
As a male student in the physical education department, he hadn't been able to contribute much to the class before, but this time he genuinely wanted to do his best to contribute.
Just as Kanzaki said, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is so strong, her stamina will definitely be depleted. However, after the team scores are divided equally, the total score is calculated based on the scores of all team members. The designated area is where team members can get extra points for working together, but the task is calculated separately for each person.
It's possible that all three of them contributed points to the group at the same time.
Therefore, it is very tempting.
Only.
?
[Would you like to pay 1 resource point to find Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's location?]
Yes!
Area A7.
"..."?
Shibata didn't understand, because this location... wasn't it the starting point? Wasn't it time to check in and accumulate points in the second designated area?
How did Kiyotaka Ayanokoji end up back at the starting point?
At the same time.
Hōsen is also waiting.
Waiting for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's stamina to begin to decline.
Hōsen never gave up on his plan to drop out of school and gain 20 million points from Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
His teammate, Nanase Tsubasa, has withdrawn.
It's obvious.
It seems Nanase failed, but it doesn't matter, he and Utsunomiya can still be the last ones standing.
As someone who directly and violently attacked Kiyotaka Ayanokoji but was instead threatened by him and left behind incredible evidence, Hōsen knew how terrifying this man was.
How could someone not change their expression when their hand is pierced by a blade, and not only not change their expression, but even have their hand pinched painfully?
This left Hōsen, who was usually unfazed by fights, with a psychological scar.
So.
He had to wait until the man's energy was depleted further.
Because Hōsen naturally resorted to the same violent attack he had used in the previous written exam with his partner.
If he gets into a fight with Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and gets injured, then Kiyotaka Ayanokoji will be expelled from school.
After all, when Acting Chairman Tsukishiro, he initially said that small-scale brawls were allowed, but he was seriously injured, so Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's side definitely had to be dealt with.
So Hōsen went all out. He was prepared to get hurt.
Now, because students have been attacked, fighting has been banned.
So... if he picks a fight with Kiyotaka Ayanokoji will be severely punished. At the same time, Hōsen is not stupid enough to realize that the perpetrator who attacked the students has not yet been found.
So, perhaps we can shift the blame to Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
Absolutely perfect!
There is a basis for this thinking: since there are tasks that force students to drop out of school and offer huge points rewards, there must be some dark forces behind it.
Someone who can afford to spend 20 million points must be someone of high status.
So if he and Kiyotaka Ayanokoji get into a fight, then Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is more likely to be dealt with.
But.
Instead of waiting for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's physical condition to decline, let's go and take care of Ryuen now.
In this way.
Having already broken the bracelet once before, Hōsen was already quite adept at it.
Because.
He checked the location of Ryuen using GPS this morning, and it was less than two hours away from him.
However, just as Hōsen was about to break the bracelet and check again, he discovered that Ryuen was actually moving closer to him.
Does Ryuen also want to prove itself superior?
So Hōsen chose not to move, nor to damage the bracelet.
Looking at the GPS, you can see that Ryuen has already entered his area.
However, he soon discovered that Ryuen had entered the area, but a few minutes later, the other party began to deviate from the area.
Could it be that they only discovered his presence at this point, and Ryuen had actually been tracking his location the whole time, which is why he fled in panic?
Hōsen suddenly felt that there was no need to fight against Ryuen anymore.
When I tried to contact Ryuen before, Ryuen hid behind the professor in charge of the research project.
Now that we've reached his territory, it's probably not because we want to fight him and prove ourselves, but simply because we need to pass through his area for a designated route.
Then they ran away after discovering he was there.
What a useless piece of trash.
Hōsen thought Ryuen was beyond saving. From now on, don't call it Ryuen anymore, just call it Long Paopao (Dragon Runner).
On the other side...
"Hōsen's patience is not bad," Ryuen said to Kaneda beside him. "But since he's not taking the initiative, then we will take the initiative."
"And now."
Ryuen helped Kaneda regain his footing.
Then he kicked Kaneda several times, leaving him with a bruised and swollen face.
"Go back to the starting point and choose to abstain," Ryuen said.
"Understood." Kaneda took the glasses from his pocket, smashed them with a stone, and rolled them on the ground several times to make himself look extremely disheveled before beginning his self-inflicted injury scheme.
It's still in the same area.
Hōsen initially thought that Ryuen would come to provoke them, so he deliberately chose a remote area.
But Ryuen actually ran away with the money.
It made him feel bad.
But let him keep his eyes on Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
He wanted to wait for Kiyotaka Ayanokoji to exhaust his stamina, and then he would recharge his own, so naturally he wouldn't run around grinding for points.
And now.
