Chapter 581: Chapter 581 Doctor
Fu Miaoxue was dressed in a black dress, her head wrapped in ablack veil, and her entire person was covered from head to toe, even her hands were clad in black embroidered gloves. It can be said, not a single inch of her skin could be seen.
Such attire was too striking, so nobody spoke to her.
And she, assumming an air of importance, didn’t seem to be actively seeking to form a team.
Noticing Bai Youwei’s gaze, Fu Miaoxue glared at her through the black veil, and then walked off in a huff.
Bai Youwei dismissed it with a casual twitch of her mouth.
Shen Mo also saw Fu Miaoxue as she walked away, speaking lightly, “If she were a citizen, she could be recruited, but sadly she’s a king.”
“I wouldn’t want to recruit her, keeping her near would be like having a ticking time bomb,” Bai Youwei laughed, “Such a bothersome individual is better left to cause trouble for others.”
Shen Mo quirked his lips slightly, “So you deliberately lured her to sign up as a king?”
“Others don’t understand her, and will surely find her to be a thorn in their side, but I understand her…” Bai Youwei squinted her eyes, looking towards the departing Fu Miaoxue, “She is like a paper tiger, often frightening others.”
Having such a person serve as a king would both suppress other kings and pose no threat to Bai Youwei – why wouldn’t Bai Youwei be pleased with this?
Compared to Fu Miaoxue, Shen Mo was more interested in the actions of the gentleman in the white gloves.
In a short time, several people had already gathered around the gentleman in white gloves, suggesting he was also one of the kings.
Yan Qingwen walked over with an unhappy expression; behind him were Su Man and Lu Yuwen.
Bai Youwei tilted her head and asked curiously, “Where are the citizens you just recruited?”
“Over there.” Yan Qingwen pointed in a certain direction with a unhappy expression, gesturing for Bai Youwei and Shen Mo to look in that direction.
There was a crowd of people over there.
In the middle of the crowd stood a man wearing a white coat, likely in his forties. He looked gentle, carrying a kind smile. His demeanor and appearance were completely non-threatening, and easily evoked a sense of familiarity.
However, the presence of such a benevolent face at the Maze War pre-selection sign-up venue felt bizarre.
“That guy, nicknamed ‘Doctor’, has already recruited sixteen citizens.” Yan Qingwen said with a frown, his tone exuding a hint of frigidity, “The other teams have only recruited about four to five citizens each. He is the only one who has exceeded ten. The people we had just recruited were also attracted over.”
“Could he be someone who specialises in psychology?” Bai Youwei murmured suspiciously as she looked over at the man in the distance, “I wonder if we will encounter him in the upcoming games.”
Shen Mo said indifferently, “It would not be surprising if someone selected by the system possesses some extraordinary abilities.”
Yan Qingwen frowned, “We still have plenty of time, let’s continue observing. We mustn’t overlook even those unassuming players. They could potentially end up being our opponents in the upcoming games.”
As the saying goes, knowing the enemy and knowing oneself are the keys to victory.
Their strategy for the remaining time was to interact with as many players as possible.
That was Yan Qingwen’s approach, and the same went for Shen Mo.
Time slowly passed amidst these cautious observations and probes…
When the ten hours of deliberation came to an end, the image of the Rabbit Inspector appeared once again on the wall –
“I’m glad to see you all again.
After ten hours of deep thought, I am confident that all of you have made your decisions…”
The rabbit-headed figure took a turn, smiling.
“However, before each of you announces your decision, I have an announcement to make.”
Everyone looked at it, confused.
It then spoke, word by word, “This competition is a preliminary round. All registered players are required to enter the arena. Those who triumph are successfully registered.”
