The closest outpost with the shortest countdown.

is here.

"Albert, come with me."

He took the black man with him.

......

A little closer, a lookout tower by the sea.

On time, after a short rest, Asakusa Toru resumed his tour for the day.

The class's base has been moved to the cave, and roll call has been successfully conducted there again. A curtain made of absorbent cloth is used to block the view, and two students are assigned to guard it. If you feel it's not safe enough, you can dismantle some other facilities, such as tents, and build a small 'door' to block the entrance of the cave.

The simple yet effective protection is complete.

After all, 'vandalism' is the most serious prohibited activity.

If caught, not only will the class be forced to leave, but the person involved will also have all their personal points deducted.

Pretty scary.

To be honest, Asakusa Tetsu thought that if the little princess didn't retaliate by launching a sneak attack to seize the stronghold, she should at least send someone to scout it out.

But surprisingly, after waiting for quite a while, there seemed to be no movement from Class B.

I have no idea what they're planning.

So after taking attendance, he slept for a few hours and set off again as the stronghold was about to be refreshed.

However, somewhat unsurprisingly, at a checkpoint on his uninhabited island tour route, he saw Long Yuanxiang again, guarding the path he always took to check in.

"You really are persistent."

Even though the terminal screen at the outpost was below the watchtower, for some reason, Long Yuanxiang chose to wait on the tower.

Is it to make it easier to observe the surroundings?

but......

Honestly, if Long Yuanxiang used this tactic every time a stronghold refreshed, even though his mobility was far inferior to mine, the uninhabited island was still quite large, and with proper route planning, I could still manage to snatch one or two strongholds from him.

That's disgusting.

As always, it's a shameless, cunning style of play typical of Ryuen Sho.

The previous base-swapping tactic is definitely not going to work anymore. Asakusa Tetsu doesn't believe that Ryuen Sho would be so stupid as to suffer a setback and not strengthen the defenses of the base.

so......

“Albert.” Long Yuanxiang’s voice rang out from the watchtower.

The next instant, a towering figure and a jet-black fist swung out from one side of the tower.

A sharp, massive, pitch-black fist, brimming with violent aesthetics yet stopping precisely in front of Asakusa Toru, appeared alongside a tall black man named Albert.

Chapter 216 A Master Strategist, Soaring Dragon Garden; Swift as the Wind, Asakusa Toru

This punch was destined not to land.

Long Yuanxiang didn't dare to fall behind either.

Unless Long Yuanxiang intends to simply ambush him, beat him up, and then neatly abandon the exam and leave, he has absolutely no chance of using 'violence' in this exam, especially in the location of the stronghold.

Whether the camera is just for show is hard to say, but the GPS tracker is definitely not just for show.

Asakusa Tetsu was not at all surprised by Albert's appearance.

Not to mention that it was midday and Albert's physique made it really difficult to completely hide from a sneak attack, even the minimap next to him clearly showed that there were more than just Long Yuanxiang around.

Albert's fists were hard, and when he punched them, they could create a noticeable gust of wind.

But how can the strength gained from natural physique alone compete with the well-trained skills honed in the white gym?

Even without reaching out, Asakusa Tetsu could sense the flow of power.

The fists will stop here.

Just as he had predicted, Albert's punch did not land.

"What are you doing? I'm going to report you to the school for abusing your classmates." Raising his eyebrows but with an unchanged expression, Asakusa Tetsu looked up at Ryuen Sho.

He's really bold. If he had just taken the opportunity to move a little closer and use his "sidekick technique" to his advantage, he could have been judged on the spot to have used violence against him and eliminated Class C.

The reason he didn't do that was firstly because he didn't want to get beaten up for no reason. It was one thing to get beaten up at the gym, but if he had to get beaten up on a deserted island, wouldn't he have graduated for nothing?

Secondly, judging from Long Yuan's behavior, he seems to have a purpose, and it's somewhat like... testing him?

"..." Upon hearing the word 'report,' Long Yuanxiang's eye twitched visibly, but he still tried his best to maintain an indifferent expression and calmly called out again:

"Albert".

As if receiving a command, the tall black man loosened his fist and instead opened his right hand and raised it.

"Shake hands." That's exactly what the muffled voice meant.

His thick arms clearly showed prominent veins, and the dark, streamlined shape exuded a violent aesthetic.

But brother...

This sounds strangely like dog training.

"Shake hands." Repeating it to change the direction of the taming, Asakusa Toru finally grasped the black man's large hand.

He certainly understood what Long Yuanxiang meant, and he also happened to be planning to test the physical gifts of Black people.

Since that's the case, let them see for themselves how much violence is hidden beneath the seemingly ordinary bodies of the graduates coming out of the gym.

"boom--"

Grasp it, gather your strength, and then unleash it.

In a daze, the force of a thunderclap knocked Albert Yamada, who was standing straight, to the side and brought him down.

The unexpected force caused Albert's body to tilt slightly, and his originally calm and confident face turned slightly bluish.

"So, what are you here for?"

Not long after, Asakusa Tetsu released Albert's hand.

It's solid and powerful, but strangely awkward.

He only likes to shake hands with pretty girls, not with black people.

“Albert.” Once again, Long Yuanxiang called out Albert’s name.

This time, however, Albert did not launch an attack like he had commanded the robot. Instead, he looked up at Long Yuanxiang.

He shook his head.

“…” Long Yuanxiang’s expression darkened slightly.

Albert's meaning was obvious to him.

'I can't beat him'

It's that simple.

He certainly didn't want to fight Asakusa Tetsu at this time, but he suddenly remembered a very serious problem.

Just how strong is Toru Asakusa's physical ability?

This is a very serious issue.

Long Yuanxiang never judges people by their appearance.

Although Asakusa Tetsu looks like the type who could easily be drained of his life force by women, you can tell from his fearless attitude when he met Albert at the beginning of the school year.

He is not as simple as he appears.

Although they hadn't seen each other for three months after that, the moment the exam on the deserted island began, his ferocity was fully revealed to Long Yuanxiang.

The sweeping speed was much faster than I had imagined, a speed that could be estimated even from the countdowns of the outposts at different intervals, a speed that I could hardly catch up to even if I tried my best.

It was that calmness and that speed that made Long Yuanxiang realize that his physique had an absolute advantage in this special test on the deserted island.

At least in Class C, there was no one who could rival him.

However, speed does not equate to strength; there are plenty of frail but incredibly fast runners in this world.

So he had Albert give it a try.

In terms of results, he is not just about speed.

In other words, this guy is invincible on the deserted island.

The reason for confirming this was not only because Ryuen Sho was very interested in Asakusa Tetsu, but more importantly, it was a necessary prerequisite for his decision.

Only after confirming this point will Long Yuanxiang choose to abandon what he thought was an invincible tactic and exchange it for bargaining chips.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you right away." Saying the words that Asakusa Tetsu had told him before, Ryuen Sho carefully climbed down from the tower.

Damn it, this place is ridiculously high; there's no way I can pretend to jump off from there.

Jumping straight down might break your leg.

"Stop being so impatient, are you just parroting me?" Before Ryuen Sho could even get down, Asakusa Tetsu rolled his eyes and casually swiped the key card at the base where the countdown had ended: "I'm leaving. If you're not going to take the base, you can just sit there."

After saying that, he simply headed off towards the next stronghold.

"Damn it!" Having just climbed down and before he could even call out to anyone, Long Yuanxiang could only curse as he watched Asakusa Tetsu run off at breakneck speed. He then beckoned Albert to follow him and chased after him, yelling, "Hey, fucking run! Slow down!"

Taking a deep breath, he sprinted to catch up with Asakusa Toru, whose breathing hadn't even stopped, maintaining a parallel distance to him. Ryuen Sho gritted his teeth and spoke as if he were about to suffocate:

"I'm not going to fight you for the stronghold, just listen to me!"

As the angry words fell, just when Ryuen Sho was almost out of breath and unable to continue his extreme sprint, Asakusa Tetsu finally slowed down.

It wasn't because he actually obeyed.

It's just because the next outpost has arrived.

"Speak, what do you want to do?"

"Huff, huff, huff..." After breathing heavily for a while, inwardly cursing whether this guy was fast again, Long Yuanxiang wiped the sweat from his sprint under the sun, calmed his breathing for a moment, and then spoke:

"Cooperate with me."

"why?"

“If you don’t cooperate,” Long Yuanxiang said without explaining his reasons, “I’ll send all forty students in the class, one at a time, to hold every single stronghold to the death.”

"Either you kill them, or you can forget about clocking in."

He explained his carefully considered "cheap snake" tactic.

The school only allows the leader to use the key card to occupy the base. Although the exam rules do not explicitly state what will happen if someone else checks in on their behalf, judging from the cameras at the base facilities, nothing should happen.

In other words, as long as you slow down the leader's pace, you can curb the speed at which the other party clocks in.

Asakusa Toru is fast, but the faster he is, the easier it is for his tactics to be effective.

Because of its speed, the time between capturing each stronghold is shorter. The shorter the interval between stronghold refreshes, the faster the speed is needed to repeatedly complete the task of capturing strongholds.

Only in this way can Asakusa Tetsu arrive at the exact moment the capture time of each stronghold is about to refresh, and gently swipe the key card.

In other words, as he said, all they had to do was send the entire squad to hold the stronghold and block Asakusa Toru's advance, without doing anything else.

This will inevitably lead to a certain outcome.

—Asakusa Tetsu will be unable to arrive at the base in advance before the scheduled time to complete the base capture.

Every minute and every second of delay will become the starting point for the subsequent liberation of the stronghold.

With the combined efforts of the entire class, Ryuen Sho could easily take over the bases with later refresh times that he couldn't reach before Asakusa Tetsu arrived at the corresponding bases.

The faster Toru Asakusa checks in, the more effective this plan will be.

He refused to believe that thirty-nine people couldn't stop him for a few minutes!

If he made any sudden, excessive movements, or moved someone away, he would have his men grab Asakusa Tetsu's legs and yell that this guy was using violence against him.

Report, report, report!

If Sakayanagi Arisu can report it, why can't he?
