Chapter 14 - Back Door
After resting for more than ten minutes, the “tired” Mai Dongzi finally “had the strength” to clean up the battlefield.
The mutant wolf and mutant cat meat she hunted yesterday were enough for her to eat for four or five days.
In addition, her plan for today had not been achieved yet, and she had been delayed for so long, so she had to finish it before dark.
Therefore, Mai Dongzi did not deal with the two mutant wolves but put them in the space bag as reserve food.
Then Mai Dongzi returned to her original position and continued to work on kneading ceramic embryos.
After seeing Mai Dongzi domineeringly kill two level three monsters, she went back to kneading mud. Everyone in the survival game live broadcast room was silent for a while because no one knew what to say.
Everyone can only say that she is worthy of being educated by a big family, and her mind is more stable than ordinary people’s.
The director, who was frightened by her, fell back on his chair and kept checking the environment in the desert. Then he seemed to have discovered something and couldn’t help complaining:
“… Isn’t it said that the desert oasis is the safest? How come there was a level 2 mutant yesterday, a level 3 mutant today, and a level 4 mutant here? Isn’t this a trap for me?”
His two assistants heard what he said and hurried over to take a look. They were really surprised.
“Maybe it migrated from the forest. Fortunately, Miss Lucy’s warrior level is very high. It’s not what we thought—that she can deal with a level 4 mutant.” The female assistant said. The female assistant’s words were recognized by everyone in the program group. Miss Lucy could kill two level 3 mutants in four or five moves, so she would definitely have no problem dealing with a level 4 mutant.
However, many people exchanged glances. The director’s words just now had meaning.
Yesterday, after Mai Dongzi found out that the license plate she got was tampered with, she “searched” the original owner’s memory whenever she had time.
According to the information given by the military stationed on the Blue Water Star, the desert oasis is the most conducive landform for survival on the Blue Water Star.
But nothing is absolute, Mai Dongzi did not relax her vigilance.
However, the original owner may have been raised by the Xi family couple with ulterior motives and some rules and regulations, and she was a delicate flower in a greenhouse.
There was too little useful information, and Mai Dongzi could not find anyone the original owner knew who would quietly open a small back door for her and put her in the desert oasis with the best conditions.
If Mai Dongzi could hear the director’s anxious words, she would definitely understand that this small back door was opened by the director for her.
Mai Dongzi did not hear it, but the uninformed staff in the survival program group heard it.
If these people still had the impression of Mai Dongzi as a loser a few days ago, they would definitely think that the director’s small back door allowed this fake daughter to take advantage of it.
However, after Mai Dongzi showed her skills, everyone thought that it would be easy for her to survive even in the forest, so they were not very touched by this matter and could understand the director’s approach.
The director opened a small backdoor for Miss Lucy, not because he had anything against her, but probably just for the click rate and attention of the program group.
Their old rival, the Lemon Live Platform, also organized a live broadcast of a deserted planet survival adventure program. Their adventurers were more famous than theirs, so they attracted more attention than theirs at the beginning.
But in the past two days, the live broadcast of the Blue Water Planet Survival Game Program Group has won the Lemon Live Program Group in terms of ratings and attention.
They all know, without looking at the data, that this was all brought by Miss Lucy.
So the longer Miss Lucy stays in the survival game, the more attention she will attract and receive.
At that time, no one knew Miss Lucy’s true level of accomplishment. In order to prevent Miss Lucy from being eliminated soon after the survival game started, the director had to make some moves and open a small backdoor for Miss Lucy.
Also, even if Miss Lucy was a fake daughter, she was still a real Xi family descendant, and the head of the Xi family personally admitted that he still treated her as his daughter. If Miss Lucy got into trouble in the survival game, the director and the production team would definitely be in trouble.
Because he was frightened, the director blurted out the backdoor. Seeing the uninformed staff in the production team, who had an expression of “I see”, the director hurriedly told everyone not to tell anyone.
“Even if you tell others, you can’t discredit Miss Lucy. Among the 100 adventurers, except for Adventurer No. 048, who encountered a Level 4 mutant beast, Miss Lucy has encountered the most mutant beasts. If you tell others, not only will others not believe that the director is giving Miss Lucy a backdoor, but they may also think that the director has ulterior motives.” The female assistant said.
The director, who was described as bitter by the female assistant, repeatedly replayed the whole process of Mai Dongzi killing two Level 3 mutant animals and finally said with certainty:
“Miss Lucy is definitely not as simple as a Level 2 Wood Element Mutant. Her warrior level should have reached Level 4.”
“Miss Lucy’s information does not say that she is a warrior, and I don’t feel the aura of a warrior from her.” The female assistant had the most contact with Lucy Xi, so she knew it very well.
“Me neither.” The male assistant said.
“There are so many twists and turns in a big family; who knows what the inside story is? Anyway, this, Miss Lucy, is definitely not what we know. No wonder she dares to participate in such an adventure game.” The director laughed.
“She has practiced martial arts and has reached the fourth level. Miss Lucy’s qualifications are no worse than those of Erica Xi. Why did the Xi family let Miss Lucy be ridiculed as a loser?” The female assistant was really puzzled.
The female assistant was puzzled, but the director was not. After seeing Lucy Xi show her true skills, the director immediately realized that the inside story of the real and fake daughter was not as simple as he had originally imagined.
As for the fact that Miss Lucy was ridiculed as a loser on the Star Network after Miss Lucy showed her true skills, the director thought of the reason.
The Xi family’s head and wife wanted the real daughter to step on the fake daughter and return to the position of the Xi family’s legitimate daughter in glory.
In the past few months, this strategy has indeed been successful. In the eyes of the entire Blue and Black Empire, the real daughter was a genius, and the fake daughter was a loser.
However, after what happened today, it is hard to say whether the real daughter, a genius or a loser, is true or false.
After all, he can see it, and he believes that others can see it too.
Although he has a backer, there is no need to offend the head of the Xi family, so the director does not intend to speak out his guess.
“Well, it is better not to discuss the affairs of the big family. Anyway, we are the ones who benefit from this matter. Lucy Xi’s performance today will definitely become popular throughout the Blue and Black Empire.”
Hearing what the director said, the female assistant hurriedly checked the data in the live broadcast room and the information in the Star Network Forum. After a while, she said with surprise:
“Director, the number of people in Miss Lucy’s live broadcast room has been climbing, and it has risen to the eighth place, and the video about her killing two level three mutant animals has been hotly discussed on the Star Network Forum.”
“Very good. Quickly contact the company’s publicity department and ask them to put Miss Lucy Xi’s battle video on the hot search.” The director said it with satisfaction.
