There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Chapter 30 "Player 'Liu Yishou' has activated the prop 'Arena'.

This scene was witnessed by quite a few people.

After all, given the current status of Chen Yi, one could say he was the focal point of the crowd, and no one could resist taking a few extra glances at the man with five titles above his head.

Men, women, young, and old alike were interested.

Apart from Chen Yi, there were also many others in the crowd with titles above their heads.

However, they were all white.

"Lucky Child of the God of Love!"

You could earn this title by confessing your true feelings to a member of the opposite sex during the limited-time event on May 20th.

As to how sincerity was judged, the game had its own standards, similar to how it could determine if a player's thousand words spoken to others met the requirements of the daily "Active Expert" mission.

And as of today.

It just happened to be May 20th.

There were 11 days left until June 1st, and the month had 31 days.

At this time, the sky was gradually darkening.

People around started to shift their gaze away from Chen Yi and the others, beginning to busily tend to their own affairs.

Meanwhile, not far away.

Loud collision sounds were constantly resounding through the city.

Work had begun to clear the vehicles accumulated in the middle of the streets, and behind that, a small number of construction teams were seen slowly following.

It seemed preparations were being made to build some sturdy defense structures outside the city walls.

Fortunately, the last patch update had only restricted human firearms, but did not completely ban all of the existing technological achievements of humanity.

Nobody knew whether a monster siege like this would happen again.

The entire city started to get busy.

Authorities were shouting through loudspeakers on the streets, calling for construction workers to join them; in the chaos just now, the city's information system seemed close to collapsing, if not completely.

To look for someone in such circumstances,

was truly no small feat.

Besides that, it seemed like there was a lot more being said, but they were too far to hear clearly.

"Hmm."

Tuberculosis Rabbit took out a cigarette from his embrace and threw it into his mouth, hands in his pockets as he glanced around, tongue-clicking ruefully, "Maybe we should stock up on more cigarettes; who knows if the factories can continue running smoothly."

"The price of cigarettes has been going up recently."

"The amount we have stashed might not be enough."

"Hmm."

Chen Yi nodded slightly, then shrugged and took out his phone, opening the navigation app to start searching for the route to Mutual Entertainment KTV in Yancheng.

"That kid's words were strange too. He even told me to go and ask around."

"Doesn't he know there's something called navigation?"

"Let's go. It's best to deal with these people early. The world is becoming increasingly dangerous, and if any of them has some special prop or skill and ambushes us out of the blue, that wouldn't be good."

"That's true."

Tuberculosis Rabbit's eyes narrowed as he drew the Claw Knife from his embrace, holding it in a reverse grip, and said in a cold tone, "What I hate most is people disturbing my sleep; those sneaky people will definitely attack me while I'm asleep."

"By the way—"

Chen Yi suddenly furrowed his brows and turned to Tuberculosis Rabbit, "What kinds of dreams do you have? Why were you talking to someone all night in your dreams?"

"And so clearly at that?"

"I've never seen anyone move their mouth during a wet dream, and if they do, it's certainly not like that."

"I don't know about that..." Tuberculosis Rabbit appeared somewhat confused, scratching the back of his head with a clear glint of foolishness in his eyes, "Every time I wake up, I've forgotten it completely."

"The only impression left is it's sort of like giving a speech or something."

"Forget it."

Chen Yi shook his head and did not speak further; instead, he focused on the navigation route and straddled a motorcycle, "Let's go, we've got some trouble to deal with tonight."

"Oh."

Tuberculosis Rabbit first nodded, then patted the motorcycle beneath him with some regret, "Yi, do you still remember our dream to buy the most expensive motorcycle?"

"Given the current global situation, it looks like that dream of ours will be hard to realize. Those manufacturers will probably be out of business for a long time."

"That's nothing to worry about."

Chen Yi, putting on a helmet nearby, said casually, "Judging by the patience of this game project's team, it wouldn't be surprising if they introduced vehicles later on."

"I even suspect we'll see outrageous vehicles like the Kowloon Coffin, the Heavenly Throne."

"Hold tight."

"You make sense, but I feel that with the speed you ride at, wearing a helmet is pretty much meaningless."

"It's for sound insulation, you talk too much."

"Oh."

...

"We're here."

In an office building opposite to the Mutual Entertainment KTV in Yancheng, Chen Yi and his companion stood on the 6th floor looking out at the short building.

That six-story building was the Mutual Entertainment KTV.

Chen Yi hid behind a pillar, peering out at Tuberculosis Rabbit who stood by with binoculars, "How is it, any movement inside that KTV?"

Yes.

He didn't dare stick his head out to check.

The reason was simple.

He was too conspicuous.

The five huge, glowing titles above his head nearly wiped out any possibility of reconnaissance, stealth, or assassination.

Can you imagine, while you're sitting in the KTV office leisurely sipping tea with your legs crossed, suddenly through the glass you spot five giant, shiny titles inside a room of the office building across the street?

Even an idiot would know someone had arrived.

"They should be in."

Tuberculosis Rabbit reported hurriedly with a mix of nervousness and excitement, "Floors one to five show no signs of life, the lights are off, but the sixth floor is brightly lit, though the curtains are drawn so I can't see clearly."

"But I can see many people moving on the sixth floor through the curtains."

"Understood."

Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief and promptly took out a mirror from his bosom, preparing to enter the KTV through the mirror and deal with these people without alerting anyone.

After all, the city was in chaos at the moment.

But if he handled some matters too openly, it was still easy to be identified as a destabilizing element and be dealt with.

Especially the fact that only he had returned from the mission involving the helicopter, and not the middle-aged man.

The military hadn't inquired about this incident, which gave him a slight sense of unease.

It defied logic, and when something defies logic, it indicates a deeper logic within.

Just as he was about to act—

"Boom!!!"

A luminescent circle like an eggshell suddenly rose around the office building, enveloping both the building and the Mutual Entertainment KTV!

Following this—

A zone announcement suddenly blared in Chen Yi's ears!

"Player 'Liu Yishou' has activated the prop 'Arena.'"

"There are two factions within the Arena."

"Chen Yi and Tuberculosis Rabbit as one faction, and all others as the remaining faction."

"The Arena will only open when all members of one faction have been wiped out."

"Arena effect: All skills and props owned by players within the Arena cannot be used!"

"ps: A true Gladiator never relies on external forces!"
