Chapter 77: A Corner of the Truth

~7 min read 1,398 words

When Laiboli first arranged this identity for Qiao Suisui, he didn't explain in detail who she was actually under. The man's original intention was to take the opportunity to give her his surname first; as for the details, if you asked him, he would only tell you: "She is Ash Laiboli's spouse."

Qiao Suisui clearly avoided this topic, so when Anubis asked her, she was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and then said: "I am just a distant relative, and I have only met him a few times."

Anubis moved his eyes away silently, his emotions complex.

Qiao Suisui sensed that his always stable emotions seemed to have a ripple, and just wanted to ask what was wrong, but heard the loudspeaker suddenly sound, which startled her.

"The test is over, everyone gather in the center of the auditorium."

Qiao Suisui wanted to walk side by side with Anubis, but when she just took a step, she saw Anubis had already walked out quickly, lifting the curtain, without waiting for her at all. Qiao Suisui was a little confused.

After everyone gathered in the auditorium, the person who set the question appeared on the center of the stage again.

"The game is over, did everyone have fun?"

There were complaints from the stage, and it was seen that many people had injuries of varying degrees.

"I know you must not understand why you were tested like this. Now I will explain it to you. AOIS's school motto is: Understand strategy, know when to advance and retreat, and be good at cooperation. These are also the three guidelines for AOIS to cultivate you. First, those who act rashly without judgment in the face of unknown dangers are not the people we need. Second, in the face of extreme survival competition, those who don't think about how to win-win, but instead engage in infighting, looting, and cannot control their violent genes, we don't cultivate."

Hearing this, those who had just participated in snatching survival packs, those who split teams, including Norway, all lowered their heads in shame.

"Finally, those who abandon teammates for the sake of profit will never be admitted."

As soon as this remark came out, it was like a huge bell hitting Jiejin's mind. He already knew that all his performances must have been recorded. Not only was there no hope this year, but he couldn't even take the AOIS exam in the future. He trembled all over, looking at the stage, and asked loudly and unwillingly: "But the rules were set by you, we just followed them, didn't we?"

"Yeah, the rules were set by you."

"Exactly, why never be admitted."

A few people in the crowd echoed.

And the person in the center of the stage just smiled lightly and said: "Then do you remember what I said at the beginning?"

Jiejin was stunned, his body swaying, and he repeated to himself in a trance: "The theme of this test: Escape Game. Rules: No rules. Goal: Survive to the end."

So, from the beginning, one only needed to survive to the end, there was no need to fight for any survival pack, nor was there any need for advancement spots; they were all smoke bombs.

Jiejin looked at the teenager standing aside in a daze, seeing her expression open and honest, and not having the sudden realization or surprise on the faces of most people, so he asked: "Qiao, you guessed it from the beginning, right?"

Qiao Suisui shook her head and said: "It was after the bloodthirsty mad bees appeared that I started to think in this direction. Bloodthirsty mad bees are artificially raised, although cruel but controllable, which shows that someone in the dark can control these bloodthirsty mad bees, and it also shows that the school is not really trying to put us in a life-and-death crisis. Coupled with the letter in the survival pack, I became more and more certain that the school's intention was not just for advancement, but really wanted to teach us something."

Jiejin was truly convinced this time. This teenager's mental power was only C-rank, but in terms of intelligence, adaptability, and judgment, she was above them. The improvement of strength was only a matter of time.

Someone asked loudly: "Then who are the people selected?"

The person on stage said: "Unfortunately, there are only three people in this session."

The audience was in an uproar. Out of more than a thousand people, only three passed the test. Who were they?

Norway thought of those three spots when he heard three, but Jiejin calmed down quickly, his eyes full of self-reflection and deep thought.

"They are Li Yi, Qiao Laiboli, and Bi."

There was a lot of discussion in the auditorium.

"Who? Who? Quick, I want the information of these three people in two minutes!"

"Laiboli, is it a member of the Ausilan royal family?"

"How come they are all names I haven't heard of? None of the few predicted to be very strong appeared this year."

Many people had already quickly posted the list of these three people on the Star Cloud, and the number of follow-up posts climbed steadily within five minutes, quickly becoming an explosive topic.

#Surprise! Three dark horses broke out in this year's enrollment, AOIS only accepts three? #

#Who can take in this sad boy, accompanied the run for the whole test and was stung by bees#

#A royal family member enrolled in AOIS, is it strength or dark box operation? #

#AOIS enrollment ratio hits a new low, three per thousand! #

Qiao Suisui didn't expect that she could be selected. After all, after she saw through the school's test intention, she had a better plan but didn't implement it. She could have stated her guess and then taken the people in the small team to survive to the end, relying on her supplies to survive for several days without any problem. But she didn't, because she felt that trust was a very important thing. At that time, Jiejin clearly didn't believe her, and she felt that it was boring to persuade him, so she just let everyone die together.

She didn't expect that she would actually be selected!

Her eyes were full of smiles, searching for Bi in the crowd, and then quietly walked over, wanting to celebrate with him, but was pushed away by him the moment she grabbed his sleeve.

Qiao Suisui looked at the coldness in Anubis's eyes and was a little at a loss.

"Bi, what's wrong with you?"

Anubis turned his head back, suppressing his anger, frowning and looking ahead, gritting his teeth and not speaking. He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would not be able to help but say sharp words to hurt her.

When things happened back then, although he wasn't born, he often heard Uncle Xiwuoen and his father mention it. They were originally one of the strongest and most respected elite troops in the Federation, but because the top management was instigated, they were suspected. Not only were the members imprisoned and tortured, but they were also backstabbed in an anti-reactionary joint operation—the reinforcements that were supposed to be given were delayed, letting the brothers be dragged to death. But they were still loyal to their duties and wanted to complete the mission, working hard to hold on, until the last moment of their death, they didn't know that this was a carefully planned conspiracy to bury them, and there would be no reinforcements at all.

His father took the survivors and secretly fled back to the Federation, only to learn of this conspiracy. After that, they were actually labeled as "Rebel Army."

How ridiculous, the warriors who fought for the glory and future of the Federation suddenly became the "Rebel Army."

And one of the instigators was Geerba Sanshi.

Anubis hated the Federation, hated Ausilan, and hated all the culprits who made him and his clansmen live in the dark shadows.

Although he knew that the teenager in front of him was simple, sincere, and kind-hearted, and the things back then had nothing to do with her, every time he saw her face, he would think of her surname Laiboli...

If his father knew that he was mixed up with people from the Laiboli family, how disappointed would he be in him? ===== CHAPTER 78 =====
