Chapter 44 – Elimination means death!


On the platform, there was a loud commotion.

Not only had the fat man and the diabetic woman melted, but many other travelers’ mud sculptures had also melted.

“When I was beating the mud, I didn’t slack off at all. I raised my hands all the way up!”

“Me too!”

“Is it just bad luck for me?”

The travelers shouted anxiously, looking at the mud monster.

Lin Baici glanced at the Rolex he had found at Longchuan Temple. There were still six minutes left until the end.

The mud monster stopped in its tracks, looking at the people with cold eyes, like gods looking down on a group of ants from high above. It had no intention of answering the travelers’ confusion.

“What’s going on? Can you tell us?”

The fat man yelled.

“Please keep quiet and don’t disturb others!”

The mud monster rebuked him.

“I’ll be damned!”

The fat man wanted to kill someone.

Lin Baici thought it was because the mud was not dug properly.

He looked at the pregnant woman and couldn’t bear to see the child lose its father as soon as it was born. He wanted to tell the man with glasses his reasoning, but what if he was wrong?

After all, this was a matter of life and death. Until the last second, Lin Baici couldn’t guarantee that the mud sculpture he made was okay.

“Be confident. Your analysis is correct. It’s the problem with the mud!”

The Gourmet spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Lin Baici immediately shouted to the man with glasses, “Uncle, the mud you dug out is not qualified, so the mud sculpture melted!”

Swish!

Everyone turned their heads and looked at him, first glancing at Lin Baici, and then at the stone tablet in front of him.

There was a mud sculpture on it that looked just like him.

“Young man, are you saying there’s a problem with the mud?”

The diabetic woman’s voice trembled.

“Yes!”

Lin Baici nodded.

“Where’s the problem?”

“Isn’t it all mud? Is there a difference?”

Not only were the travelers whose mud sculptures had melted confused, but even those who had succeeded in making them were mostly at a loss because they had just dug up mud at random.

“Then where should we dig the mud?”

The diabetic woman anxiously looked at Lin Baici, waiting for an answer.

Some of these people were smart.

Five of them immediately ran to the place where the mud monster had dug up the mud before.

“Damn it, I should have done this earlier!”

The fat man cursed and regretted.

In fact, many travelers were too afraid of the mud monster to get close to it.

The fat man, the diabetic woman, and others immediately ran to the place where the mud monster had dug up the mud before.

“Leave some for me!”

The diabetic woman shouted anxiously.

“Don’t panic, it’s okay!”

The man with glasses said, and he too wanted to go grab some mud, but his wife held him back.

“What’s wrong?”

The man with glasses was puzzled.”So many people went, can you get it? And can you guarantee that the mud embryo you dig this time is okay?”

The pregnant woman covered her stomach with one hand and was very anxious: “Since that student knows the reason for the mud embryo, he should know what kind of mud embryo is qualified. Let’s go ask him!”

After the pregnant woman finished speaking, she walked towards Lin Baici.

“Don’t move, I’ll go!”

The man with glasses rushed to Lin Baici and begged with folded hands: “Little brother, please help me?”

“Let’s go!”

Lin Baici picked up the mud man on the slate and ran towards the red clay pond.

“This kid is too cautious?”

Ma Yuan was speechless. Can’t you trust me a little?

After all, I am a dragon guard of the Security Bureau, and I will definitely protect your mud man.

Depressed!

Lin Baici’s small movements still made Ma Yuan look up to him.

Those who pay attention to details can succeed.

“You dig here!”

Lin Baici chose a waterlogged pit: “It must be at least fifteen centimeters deep!”

The man with glasses looked here, then turned his head to look at the location where the mud man dug the red clay.

There were too many people there, more than three hundred, all crowded together. Moreover, in order to fight for the best position, which was near the pit where the mud man dug the red clay, they even pushed and fought.

If there weren’t so many people, he would still want to go there!

Lin Baici understood the man with glasses’ hesitation, after all, it was a matter of life and death.

“What are you fighting for? Is it so difficult to dig a qualified mud embryo?”

The mud man couldn’t stand it anymore.

These people’s behavior was too eye-catching.

They even fought for mud.

Many people heard this and showed a “I knew it” expression, especially those tourists who dug out qualified mud embryos, secretly happy.

“What kind of mud embryo is qualified?”

The diabetic aunt asked.

The mud man didn’t answer and stared at Lin Baici, warning, “This is a qualification assessment for apprenticeship. Each step must be done by the apprentice himself. If you help others again, I will punish you and deprive you of your qualification for assessment.”

Lin Baici shrugged.

He has always been cautious. If he didn’t feel sorry for the pregnant woman’s deceased husband, he wouldn’t have spoken out of turn.

The man with glasses was honest, but not stupid. When he heard the mud man’s words, he instantly understood.

What this student said was correct.

The man with glasses immediately squatted down, inserted his hands into the mud pond with force, and began to dig mud.

At least fifteen centimeters deep, right?

“Baici, come back soon!”

Song Li shouted.

She asked Xia Hongyao for Lin Baici’s name.

Thank God, let me meet him, otherwise I would be anxious like a burning butt to dig mud embryos now.

Song Li felt very happy when she thought that she had chosen to trust Lin Baici and followed him to dig red clay.

Her luck was really good.

So she was very concerned about Lin Baici’s safety now.Because this big guy is alive, she has a thigh to hold onto, which increases her survival rate.

“…”

Ma Yuan was afraid afterwards, is this mud block really a problem?

Almost acted recklessly.

“How is it? This kid is amazing, right?”

Xia Hongyao boasted.

This is the potential member I have my eye on!

Hmm!

After dealing with this divine taboo, I’ll quickly call my sister and ask for a spot for exemption from the entrance exam.

Listening to Xia Hongyao praise Lin Baici, 18D was envious.

Why is it that all he can think of is panic and helplessness, and he can’t be like Lin Baici?

Is the gap between people really that big?

But when 18D saw the tourists still digging in the red mud pit, he felt relieved.

These are the performances of ordinary people!

“Young man, is this mud block qualified?”

The diabetic aunt dug up the mud block and immediately came to ask Lin Baici.

There is not much time left, and she does not have another chance, so she must ensure success in one go.

About twenty tourists have dug up red mud and have run back to the platform to prepare for pounding and shaping. Now seeing the diabetic aunt running to Lin Baici and muttering to him, three people with quick thinking immediately understood what the aunt was doing and picked up mud balls and ran over.

Obviously, they planned to let Lin Baici confirm whether the mud block was qualified or not.

Lin Baici didn’t say anything.

“It’s okay, that mud man is patrolling, didn’t you see it? Hurry up and tell me!”

The diabetic aunt urged, “Please!”

“Don’t harm people, okay?”

The glasses guy reprimanded the old woman.

He was worried that Lin Baici was young and inexperienced, and liked to help people. If he impulsively acted like a hero and told the old woman the answer, it would be troublesome.

“Shut your mouth!”

The diabetic aunt glared at the glasses guy and then looked at Lin Baici with a pitiful and pleading expression, like those professional beggars on the street.

“Handsome guy, help me take a look too!”

“You don’t need to speak, just nod or shake your head, give a secret signal!”

“I shouldn’t have a problem, right?”

Several tourists accompanied with smiles and asked in a low voice.

“Don’t talk too much, otherwise you’ll really die!”

The ghoul warned.

Lin Baici didn’t say anything, and walked towards the platform in silence.

Several tourists saw that they couldn’t ask for an answer, cursed, and hurriedly ran back to their respective stone slabs to start pounding the mud blocks.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

This time the sound was very dense, and the tourists used the fastest speed possible.

The diabetic aunt also wanted to be fast, but she had already made two batches of clay, was very tired, and her arms were sore. She couldn’t speed up even if she wanted to.

Especially this time, after hitting the mud block more than ten times, her arms were trembling like she had Parkinson’s syndrome, and she couldn’t lift the mud block through to the end.

“Oh my god, this is going to kill me!”The aunt with diabetes cried out in despair.

No one cared about her, as everyone was doing their best to make their clay sculptures as perfect as possible in the remaining time, hoping to get a high score.

The atmosphere was oppressive and tense, like a noose tightening around everyone’s necks.

The clay monster patrolling the area suddenly stopped and announced loudly after looking around, “Time’s up, the making of the clay bodies is over!”

There were still about fifty passengers struggling with their clay sculptures, most of them elderly.

Lin Baici glanced at the bespectacled man, who was still carving his clay figure without putting down his carving knife. He was more skilled this time since he had done it once before.

The clay monster looked at these people with disdain in its eyes.

“You can’t even properly shape the clay, you’re all worthless! Eliminated!”

Although they didn’t know what would happen after being eliminated, they knew it wouldn’t be good, so they argued.

“It’s your fault for not explaining clearly, causing us to do it a second time!”

“Give me another chance, please?”

“My previous clay figure was beautiful!”

Some complained, some begged for mercy, but the clay monster didn’t care. It raised both hands and clapped three times.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

In the red clay pond, mounds of clay rose from the ground, wriggling and forming two-meter-tall clay figures within ten seconds.

They had no facial features but accurately stepped onto the platform and quickly approached those who had been eliminated.

The aunt with diabetes panicked and tried to run, but the clay figure that was more than five meters away from her raised its right hand, and like a python hunting, it shot out and grabbed her ankle.

The clay figure’s arm shortened and slowly retracted, while it also turned around and walked towards the clay pond.

The aunt with diabetes was dragged along the ground, leaving a trail behind her.

“Save me!”

“Please, save me!”

“I don’t want to die!”

When the clay figure’s arm returned to its original length, the aunt with diabetes was dragged into the red clay pond. She struggled in vain.

The clay figure standing in the pond grabbed her shoulder with one hand and her hair with the other, pushing her head into the clay pond.

The aunt couldn’t even scream for help, let alone cry out in pain. She could only flop around weakly like a dying catfish.

Death had arrived!

The clay figures began to clean up those who had been eliminated, drowning them directly in the clay pond.
