BXBX NOVEL Chapter 64
Chapter 64
The maze was not only tall, but also large and distant. Going through it from above or navigating through the middle would take a long time.
Being exhausted in the deep sea, wandering around the maze would only drain their mind and spirit even more.
It would be better to just chop down this coral maze.
But that would be too unvirtuous.
Amidst everyone\'s hesitation, Qin Huaibei still had a shred of conscience and said, "I\'m afraid... that\'s not very proper."
Katherine fell silent. It was improper indeed, but what if they really didn\'t want to go through the maze?
Just as everyone was in an awkward position, Chloe, who was standing at the very front, tapped the coral beneath her palm and turned around,
"Can the terminal contact the organizers?"
Hearing this, Qu Yan was startled, then nodded, "It can, what are you trying to do?"
Without answering, Chloe tossed her terminal over and smilingly said,
"Help me call the organizers."
They didn\'t avoid anyone when talking, so all the off-site audience and teachers, including the organizers, saw everything.
Uproot the coral maze? How dare they even think of it!
The organizers blew their moustache and glared at their lit-up terminal, thinking they wanted to see what this Chloe was going to say to them.
In the deep sea.
Chloe searched left and right on the glowing screen of the terminal until the call was picked up.
The face of the organizer appeared on the enlarged public screen. Chloe immediately put on a smile even sweeter than honey,
"Boss, I have an indecent request..."
The organizer cut her off and said coldly, "The coral maze cannot be uprooted."
Hearing this, Chloe paused briefly before continuing, "But Boss, the rules of the Joint Military Competition state that military academy students are allowed to use any non-lethal means to get through the competition stages."
So uprooting the coral maze was actually permitted by the rules.
The organizer snorted, "But this coral maze cost us a huge amount of money and labor to build. How can we allow you to uproot it as you wish?"
One could imagine how difficult it was to build a coral maze in the deep sea.
Chloe blinked and asked, "Oh, how much did the Boss spend on it?"
The organizer proudly named a figure.
Upon hearing it, Chloe moved her fingers.
It wasn\'t that much, just petty cash.
She exchanged glances with Anderson, who nodded slightly at her.
Chloe understood. She looked at the organizer again and continued, "Then how about this - after uprooting the coral maze, the construction cost, maintenance cost, competition loss, I will pay for it all in my name. What do you think?"
Not only the organizer, even the main team members of the No.1 Military Academy and Tagar Military Academy were stunned by her words.
The organizer kept his mouth open for a long time, unable to speak.
He was calculating how much this amount would be.
Seeing him still hesitating, Chloe added another sentence, "I can also pay double."
Upon hearing this, the organizer immediately approved, "Uproot! You can uproot the coral as you wish!"
With this amount of money, not to mention rebuilding a coral maze, there would even be a surplus to develop the Joint Military Competition!
The organizer couldn\'t help smiling from ear to ear.
Chloe heaved a sigh of relief, "This amount will be charged to the Vampire Royal Family\'s account."
She pondered and added, "Remember to put down my name."
With that said, Chloe hung up the call and turned to look at her companions.
Qin Huaibei murmured, "Money can move ghosts to grind, the ancient saying does not deceive me."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Chloe said nothing, just a hint of pride at the corners of her lips, as she hefted her big sword and swung forcefully at the coral maze.
In an instant, she chopped down a large swath on the outside.
The immense coral bent and collapsed, stirring up billowing clouds of dust.
Everyone quickly took evasive action while wielding their weapons, dodging the crumbling coral while chopping the maze in half at the waist.
Their speed was extremely fast, aggressive and unhindered. In a very short time, they had advanced a great distance.
From the outside, one could only see the people of the No.1 Military Academy and Tagar Military Academy waving their weapons and breezing through this deep-sea stage that had brought great pain to many students in previous years, in an extremely simple and crude way.
The off-site teachers and audience watched them quietly.
Sitting upright, Anyun Ying faced questioning from teachers of other military academies and gently said,
"The students are quick-witted. There is no helping it."
Moreover, the military academy students did pay for it. What was wrong with chopping down a coral maze?!
Thinking of this, Anyun Ying calmly sipped her hot tea.
At this moment in the deep sea,
after about an hour and a half, they had finally chopped down the damn coral maze entirely.
Just by looking back, one could see large patches of coral overgrowth strewn on the seafloor, one here, one there, layered upon each other, looking particularly ugly.
Qu Yan sighed, "So unsightly."
Chloe picked up where he left off, "However unsightly, it\'s our own doing, I think it\'s pretty good."
She looked at it for a while and truly felt quite satisfied.
Such a huge coral maze being chopped down, she didn\'t know why, but a strange sense of pride welled up in Chloe\'s heart.
Was it just her who thought so, or...
Chloe raised her eyes and sure enough, saw Daniel\'s smug face.
She instantly felt relieved.
She just knew that her buddies here at the No.1 Military Academy had the exact same mindset as her!
Next, without further ado, they continued moving forward.
Chloe recalled the map, "If I\'m not mistaken, Brut Military Academy should have been deployed to our opposite side. I looked and there seems to be a coral maze over there too."
Hearing this, Katherine calculated, "In that case, they should still be inside the maze right now."
"Tsk, the people of Brut Military Academy aren\'t as smart as us," Daniel said arrogantly. "It\'s just a coral maze, why not uproot it?"
He burst into extremely arrogant laughter.
In fact, they weren\'t wrong.
At this time, the people of Brut Military Academy were indeed still wandering around inside the coral maze.
Kamen looked at the map and couldn\'t help but sneeze.
The audience watched them for a while before losing interest and switched to the No.1 Military Academy\'s channel.
Compared to the lifelessness of Brut Military Academy, the No.1 Military Academy\'s side was much more lively.
Daniel sighed amidst the crowd, "After walking for so long, why have we still not seen any mermaids?"
The people of Tagar Military Academy turned to look at him, not understanding why he could think of mermaids in such an intense and thrilling competition.
Chloe was also surprised that his obsession with mermaids ran so deep. She mercilessly shattered his fantasy, "There is no light source in the deep sea. Everyone just grows up randomly. Do you really think mermaids are beautiful?"
