Chapter 196: Chapter 196: The Road Idiot

Translator: 549690339

Six contestants have already emerged from the cave ahead of me?

Qin Lang was a little surprised.

However, the order of emergence from the cave does not determine the final ranking in the Misty Adventure Race, the number of gold coins collected is more important.

On an electronic screen nearby, the clearance times and the number of gold coins collected by the first six contestants were displayed. Among them, the contestant with the most gold coins had not exceeded fifty.

“Hello, please hand over the 'Brave Treasure' you have collected for my tally,” a Staff member walked up to Qin Lang and cheerfully pulled out a basket.

“Alright.” Qin Lang poured the coins from the small bag into the basket. The clarity of the “clank” sound captured the attention of many audiences.

When they saw the number of gold coins that Qin Lang turned in, there was suddenly a lot of whispering in the field.

Although it hasn't been counted yet, Qin Lang's number of gold coins is obviously higher than others.

Soon, the counting result came out.

“Qin Lang has found fifty-eight 'Brave Treasures' in the Brave Cave! Let's congratulate him with a warm round of applause!”

After the count, Qin Lang went to sit down on a seat to one side.

He did not see Zhao Wenchang's figure, so it seemed that he was still in the cave.

The hidden cameras in various parts of the cave faithfully recorded the explorations of the contestants. Qin Lang soon found Zhao Wenchang's figure in one of the split screens.

Judging from the small map, he was not far from the exit.

In the picture, Zhao Wenchang was just collecting a gold coin, which allowed Qin Lang to see his way of collecting the gold coins.

Breaking through by brightness?

Recognizing the Combat Skill of Zhao Wenchang's Food Spirit, he looked surprised.

He knew Zhao Wenchang's Food Skill, but he was unfamiliar with his Combat Skill.

He didn't expect this.

If that's the case, Zhao Wenchang's efficiency in obtaining gold coins should not be low.

For a while, Qin Lang was curious about how the other contestants had obtained the gold coins.

Different Spirit Chefs have different combinations of Combat Skills, naturally leading to different ways of use.

His gaze turned to other screens, and he began to observe with interest.

As the competition time went by second by second.

After Qin Lang, one contestant after another walked out of the cave, after the count of their collected gold coins was completed, for the time being no one exceeded Qin Lang.

This made Dan Bao and Spicy quite happy.

After all, they were the ones who did the job of collecting the gold coins.

Suddenly, Zhao Wenchang walked out.

After handing over his gold coins to the Staff member, he quickly walked towards Qin Lang, “I didn't expect you to come out this early!”

“I almost got dizzy in the cave, didn't expect so many bifurcations inside.”

“I saw that.” Qin Lang pointed to the screen with a smile, implying that he had seen the other's exploration process.

“Hehe.” Just as aware, Zhao Wenchang scratched his head, “I got fifty-five gold coins, seems like a high rank.”

“Almost exceeded me.” Qin Lang nodded in agreement.

“I hope to make it into the top three, so 1 can get the three-day unlimited Scenic Area Fun Pass.” Zhao Wenchang looked forward with anticipation.

While the two were talking, several more contestants came out of the cave.

Soon, there was only one last contestant left in the cave out of the thirty-four contestants.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the picture of the contestant.

It was a skinny female contestant, wearing a duckbill hat that made her face unclear in the dim cave. She was walking back and forth in the corridor with her two Food Spirits.

According to the positioning map on the side, she kept going in circles.

Lost in the cave?

The expressions on the audience's face became curious.

Suddenly, the girl seemed to recognize a direction, grabbed a flashlight, and ran hurriedly in that direction.

She fell after a few steps.

The expression on the faces of the audience became even more curious.

After bumbling along like this, and after another full half hour, the girl finally found her way to the exit honestly by luck and walked out.

The sunlight splashed on the pretty face under Chou Yun Er's duckbill hat, making her triumphant expression clear.'”! must have been the first one out, right?” Chou Yun Er crossed her arms, “This is the power of a cute little adventurer like me!”

The field suddenly went quiet.

It was obvious that everyone was struggling to hold back their laughter.

“Congratulations to contestant Chou Yun Er, the thirty-fourth one to make it out of the Brave Cave!”

Even the sound of the broadcast carried a touch of laughter.

“The last one?” Chou Yun Er's expression froze.

Damn it!

How is this possible!

1 am a descendant of the brave ones!

“Contestant Chou Yun Er, you can turn in your 'Brave Treasure' for me to count now.” A staff member approached with a grin.

“Ok!” Chou Yun Er took out a hefty bag, spilling its contents of gold coins with a “clatter.”

The field fell silent once again.

This… This… is so many?!

Soon, the tally was complete.

“Contestant Chou Yun Er has collected a total of seventy-three 'Brave Treasures' within the Brave Cave! Let's give her a round of applause!”

Seventy-three coins!

Those players anticipating the competition results held their breath.

An astonished look crossed Qin Lang's face.

Soon, he figured out why she was able to collect so many gold coins.

Electromagnetic Traction!

Not every gold coin would be hidden in crevices that could be directly illuminated with a flashlight. Some might be hidden behind rocks or blocked by the explorer's position.

It would be quite challenging to locate these coins with a flashlight or other lighting methods, yet the special sensing ability of electromagnetic traction towards metal allowed for clear discernment.

Although the girl before his eyes had a terrible sense of direction, her ability to find gold coins was impressive!

Chou Yun Er quickly turned her attention to the screen displaying the other contestants' results.

Having noticed that she had collected the most gold coins, she seemed to get back her confidence as a cute little adventurer and walked confidently to a seat not far from Qin Lang.

“The final scores and rankings of the thirty-four contestants are now being announced!”

A moment later, the voice of the broadcaster filled the air once again.

“In thirty-fourth place, contestant Zhang Ji, with a score of 62.5!”

“In thirty-third place…”

“In third place, contestant Zhao Wenchang, with a score of 83.4!”

“In second place, contestant Qin Lang, with a score of 86.1!”

“In first place, contestant Chou Yun Er, with a score of 89.3!”

As the rankings were rapidly announced from last to first, Zhao Wenchang jumped up excitedly.

One contestant had collected one more coin than he did, but he had emerged from the cave a full ten minutes earlier. In the end, his final score was only 0.1 point below Zhao's!

“I was almost fourth.”

Zhao Wenchang blurted out, attracting resentful glances from the fourth-place contestant.

Qin Lang laughed and looked towards Chou Yun Er on the other side.

Although she exited the cave almost an hour later than he did, she had collected too many gold coins. As a result, she was still awarded first place in the end.

“Let's aim for first place in the next fun competition!”

After comforting the disgruntled Dan Bao and Spicy, Qin Lang headed to the Chairman's Stage under the guidance of the staff to collect his competition reward.

A second place commemorative medal and a three-day fun pass for the scenic area.
