The battle for points was fierce as students continued to run around the area scanning every item in sight.
"Damn this has been scanned already!" A student complained.
"Yes, there's another one here that's two now!" Another yelled out.
Some of the weaker groups decided to stay together as a group as they went around.
Although this stopped other teams from snatching points from them, their progress was relatively slower than those who roamed alone. The stronger groups decided it would be best to split up, this way they were able to cover a wider range, while the other groups decided to do a mixture of something in between.
Even though the group thought that Del was being harsh in his punishment, it wasn't truly the case. He had planned to do something similar beforehand but wasn't quite sure how to do it until the incident gave him an excuse.
