Chapter 202 - Welcome to the Hunter game

Chapter 202: Welcome to the Hunter game

S City tonight was abnormally empty.

At the intersection, only Lin Bai’s car was waiting for the green light alone.

“Whoosh –”

“Pa.”

A note was blown by the wind and stuck to the windshield.

Bright red words appeared in front of his eyes.

“Do you want to stand at the top of all living things?”

The second question of the night.

The next second, the note was blown away by the wind again.

Only a glaring blood trail was left behind as it slowly slid down the glass.

Lin Bai did not know why, but he had a feeling that this time, the note was not ink, but real blood.

Human blood.

Lin Bai gripped the steering wheel tightly and stared at the red light in front of him, hoping that it would quickly change color so that he could leave this damned place.

However, the red light lasted strangely long.

Lin Bai felt that he had waited for a century, but the signal light before him did not show any signs of changing color.

His patience had finally run out.

“Forget it, I’ll just deduct points!”

Lin Bai gritted his teeth and drove straight out.

At that moment, the originally empty intersection suddenly surged with white strips of paper that blotted out the sky and covered the earth.

Each piece of paper was covered with blood-colored words.

The strips of paper were like snowflakes, and in the blink of an eye, they covered the entire windshield.

Lin Bai couldn’t see the road at all. He was forced to see the blood-colored words on the strips of paper.

“Do you want to have more superpowers?

“Do you want to stand at the top of all living things

“Do you want to become a God?”

At the same time, an unprecedentedly intense buzz sounded in Lin Bai’s mind.

It was as if an intense pain came from the deepest part of his soul, causing him to tremble involuntarily.

This was the buzzing sound produced by the interference of his special ability.

However, it was also a kind of coercion and threat.

At this moment, Lin Bai suddenly understood why Wang Hao had died of a head injury.

It was likely that before he died, he had also experienced the same torment.

Lin Bai used almost all of his strength to burst out with a furious roar

“I don’t want to!”

“No matter what you want to do, I will refuse! I will refuse!!”

He gritted his teeth, endured the immense pain deep in his soul, and fiercely turned the steering wheel.

“Crash –”

All the notes were flung away, and his vision suddenly became clear.

The intense buzzing and pain also disappeared.

The noisy sounds surged into the car, and the world seemed to recover in an instant.

Lin Bai suddenly realized that his surroundings were not empty, but bustling and bustling as usual!

This was the real S City.

This was the real environment he was in.

What about the previous one?

Was it some kind of alternate dimension, or was it an illusion?

Lin Bai was covered in cold sweat as he slowly pulled over and parked the car. He was secretly glad that he did not have an accident when he forcefully turned the car.

Otherwise, the headline of tomorrow’s news would probably be “A student from S University died in a car accident.”.

It seemed that good luck was still very useful. It could even save a life at a critical moment.

Lin Bai tried his best to calm his emotions and suppress the fear of escaping death.

However, at this moment, a piece of paper floated down from the sky.

It landed on the windshield without any deviation.

“You don’t have the right to refuse.”

Unlike the previous note, there was a smiley face drawn in blood at the end of the note.

It was full of mockery.

“Ding, the app has been downloaded.”

“Welcome to the Hunter game.”

A voice prompt suddenly sounded on his phone.

Lin Bai grabbed his phone and saw that there was indeed an icon that he had never seen before on the table

It was a dagger with blood on it, and it was stuck on top of the skull.

There were four red words with a bleeding effect on the bottom: Hunter game.

The next second, the app automatically ran.

The screen of the phone instantly turned black, and rows of blood words slowly appeared.

[Authentication activated. ]

[ Player’s name: Lin Bai. ]

[ Player’s special abilities: perspective, medical skills, and the ability to recognize people. ]

[ Player’s ID: 1000. ]

[ Competition zone: Dragon Country region. ]

[ Verified. Congratulations on entering the Hunter game. ]

Then, the screen changed to a game guide.

The details were as follows:

The game is held once every 10 years and was divided into 10 competition zones. 999 players are randomly selected from each competition zone.The selected players must strictly abide by the rules of confidentiality. Any player who reveals relevant information about the game to the public would be immediately killed.All players who enter the game will be randomly assigned with an initial superpower. Whether it is strong or weak depends on luck.The player and the player will inevitably meet, and they will sense each other. Defeating or killing other players will earn points and steal the opponent’s superpower.The player with the highest points in each division will receive a prize of 100 billion US dollars and advance to the finals. The rest of the players who could not advance would be killed.The final winner would receive the right to meet the gods and receive the blessings of the gods.

Lin Bai thought that the last rule was nonsense because he did not believe that there really was a god in this world.

Even if there really was one, it would never be someone who played people like chess pieces.

However, the first five rules made Lin Bai secretly shocked.

This was a real-life version of the Great Escape!

What he couldn’t figure out was that since the first rule said that there were only 999 players in each region, why would his player ID be 1,000?

Could it be that he wasn’t originally selected but was pulled into this “Game” because he attracted the attention of the mastermind behind the scenes?

As If in response to Lin Bai’s doubts, a new message suddenly popped up in the Hunter game app.

[General Notifications: a special player has been temporarily added to the Dragon Country Competition Zone, number 1000. All rules remain unchanged.]

Following that were a few kill Notifications.

[Notification: Player No. 398 has successfully killed player No. 967 and seized his special ability: water control. ]

[Notification: Player No. 801 has successfully killed player No. 044. ability taken: bewitching, discerning skills. ]

[Notification: Player No. 244 has successfully killed player No. 183. Ability Taken: body strengthening, telekinesis, turning stone into gold.]

…

The information about the players being killed kept popping up one after another.

At the same time, the points rankings in the app kept changing.

The players who had successfully killed each other rose in rank, and the number of the players who had been killed turned gray. Then, they completely disappeared from the leaderboard.

The real-time and dynamic leaderboard silently revealed a cruel reality:

Killings were happening nonstop in every corner of this country.

Lin Bai stared at the constantly changing leaderboard. The shock and fear in his heart were being swallowed inch by inch by his anger.

“Treating human lives like ants, there should be a limit!”

Lin Bai was extremely furious.

He hated those people who were willing to slaughter his own people just to fight for points and superpowers.

He hated the mastermind behind this game, the guy who called himself God, even more.. He created such a cruel game and forced the ordinary people to turn themselves into killing machines!
