Chapter 6 Only when you look good can you be young!
Help?
Can you also provide off-site assistance?
Jason was stunned, the scene in front of him was beyond Jason's expectations.
In his mind, the inside and outside of the field are two insulators, which are separated.
There shouldn't be anything other than going to watch a live stream.
But the scene in front of him told Jason about his lack of understanding of the world in front of him.
After quickly adjusting his mentality, Jason immediately calmed down.
At the same time, Jason also made a decision.
Help!
Not only because of the calm behavior of Jialun in front of him, Jason appreciated, but more importantly, because Jason wanted to understand this 'game' and the world more thoroughly through this 'help'.
Compared to those reckless temptations, the way to spend 1 point in front of you is undoubtedly a good opportunity.
Glancing at the remaining 59 points.
Jason chose 'Yes' on the screen.
He looked at the screen with a little expectation, consumed 1 point, and gave a lighter, so what would this 'lighter' be?
The name of a certain firearm?
Or is it something more special?
And also!
Most importantly, how should this 'lighter' be delivered to Kalun?
With all sorts of speculation, Jason was stunned again when he saw what was happening on the screen.
β¦β¦
The feeling of suffocation caused by the lack of oxygen made Jia Lun feel dizzy for a while.
He felt the proximity of death.
Is he going to die?
Is this the end of it?
Sorry, Mom.
I'm ......
Well?!
Just when Jialun's will to survive was about to be lost, he suddenly found that the turf in front of him was turned over, and a lighter appeared there.
It is the most common disposable lighter.
The whole is colored, but it remains transparent, and the inside is filled with air, and when you press the 'pop', it can burst into flames.
Jia Lun, who used to work in a convenience store, is all too familiar with this lighter.
It is usually placed in front of the cash register of a convenience store, corresponding to the cigarette behind the cashier, so that the cigarette buyer can basically see it at a glance.
Hallucination?
Jia Lun couldn't help but think, but the instinct to survive still made him reach out.
When his fingers touched the lighter, a touch of ecstasy appeared on Jialun's face.
It's true!
Not an illusion!
I can live!
Jia Lun thought to himself and clutched the lighter.
And then......
He pointed the lighter at his stout arm around his neck.
Syllable!
After a crisp sound, flames erupted from the lighter.
The hairs on the attacker's arms were burned bald.
A scorching smell spreads.
"Ahh
In the rush of shouting, the other party let go of Jia Lun under the sudden pain.
Whew, whew.
Karen gulped for a breath.
Fresh air poured into the lungs.
The discomfort that made him feel sick quickly disappeared.
And this scene made the 'audience' explode.
"What's going on?"
"How is it possible to have a lighter?"
"Cheat!"
"Someone cheats!"
A lot of barrages appeared, but soon more barrages appeared.
"All of them are elementary school students, right?"
"I guess you haven't seen any games other than the 'preliminaries', right?"
"I don't even know about 'tipping'!"
"yes, a bunch of people who don't know anything are calling here."
"They're actually pretty good, at least to attract them, the 'game' organizers have made this year's 'preliminary' free, even if it's only a regional-level preliminary."
"No matter what primary school student, I just want to know how much money the local tyrant just spent on, and the reward amount of this 'life-saving prop' should not be low, right? Is there 1000 pieces? β
"Upstairs Xiaobai, even if this kind of 'life-saving prop' is a 'preliminary competition', it has to be 10,000+."
β¦β¦
Is it just an ordinary lighter?
Jason watched as Glenn broke free, and then he was captivated by the barrage that flowed like water.
Looking at these barrages, Jason frowned.
'Life-saving items'!
'Tip'!
He quickly locked on the two words.
Then, his gaze swept over the barrage.
Jason looks for valuable information from these fragmented messages.
Soon, complete information appeared in Jason's mind.
"The 'preliminaries' of the 'crazy game' are free and open to everyone, while in previous years, watching the 'preliminary round' required to start spending money, and similarly, compared with the monotonous 'preliminaries', the rules of the 'preliminaries' have become richer, and the 'audience' can also join in and change the situation they don't want to see through their own 'money'."
Jason's brow furrowed even tighter.
This is naturally a good thing for the 'audience'.
I was able to see even more exciting 'races'.
But for the participants, it is really fatal!
Whether it's a 'survivor' or a 'madman'!
Because, your careful preparation is likely to be reversed by a 'tip'.
Then, such a reversal is very likely to cost your life as well.
Besides!
And the way that lighter just appeared.
"It's not just the 'machinery' hidden under the walls of the apartment I live in, but also the venue where the game is playing?"
Jason muttered to himself, but was immediately relieved.
Since he can have such an arrangement in the apartment where he lives, there must be a similar arrangement in the playing field.
If not, that's something more alarming.
However, in this case, he needs to be more careful.
He has so many secrets in him.
Whether it's his origins or his talent.
None of them can be exposed, no matter what.
Once exposed......
It was really a big crisis.
Thinking of this, Jason picked up the nutritious meal he had just delivered, and then pressed the 'nutritious meal (free) button on the handheld computer.
Bite!
With the crisp sound of bells, another free meal began to be prepared.
Jason just sat cross-legged in front of the TV, watching Garlen's game, and at the same time clicked the 'Life' button on the handheld computer again.
This time he didn't pay any more curious attention to the others.
Instead, the 'Books' category was chosen.
Zone F β A Nation Built on the Ruins (5 points)
The Birth of the 'Crazy Game' (2 points)
How to Properly Participate in 'Crazy Games' (Survivor Version: 10 Points)
How to Properly Participate in the 'Crazy Game' (Abusive Version: 20 Points)
β¦β¦
Unlike the previous option, there is no price fluctuation, and it is all straightforward.
And the price?
It's not cheap.
According to Jason's understanding at this stage, the purchasing power of each point is quite strong.
If you follow what the barrage says, the currency that can be exchanged for 1 point is at least 10,000+ or more.
"Is knowledge high?"
Jason commented from the bottom of his heart, and then redeemed "Area F - A Nation Built on the Ruins" and "The First Birth of 'Crazy Games'".
Although it is expensive, it is essential for Jason who needs to understand the world of the dungeon.
Of course, Jason also understands a truth.
The books that can appear here can be imagined as 'real'.
But, the basic aspect should be true.
In other words, 'common sense as ordinary people know'.
As for more?
Then more corroboration and research are needed.
For Jason, though, that's enough at this stage.
Click!
The sound transmitted by the machine is faint but clear.
Soon, the floor in Jason's hand was rising.
After protruding 50 centimeters from the ground, two books are revealed on the next floor.
Then he was held up by a small robotic arm and handed it to Jason.
When Jason took the book, the arm was put back in and the floor was restored to its original state.
The soft book cover, without too much ornamentation, and without the familiar book number of Jason or anything like that, are two books with names written on them, simple and functional.
"In-house printing?"
The corners of Jason's mouth, which had been expected, curled.
He began to open the book.
In fact, for the next period of time, Jason sat on the floor like this, flipping through the two books in his hand, watching TV, and eating a 'nutritious meal'.
Inexplicably, at this time, he thought of Denise.
When Denise is reading, she likes to read while eating, and she likes to lean back on the sofa.
If only there was a sofa!
Jason thought so, but didn't act.
The comfortable environment only made him let his guard down.
It's not penance.
It's just that......
I don't want to die accidentally.
One might say that once or twice 'relaxing' is nothing.
But any 'depravity' begins with one or two 'relaxations'.
People are far less tenacious than they imagined.
They will fall because of all kinds of temptations.
They will also be motivated by various temptations.
The first and most obvious is 'laziness'.
When laziness appears, it is really the beginning of disaster, it not only consumes a person's self-motivation, but also sinks a person's will.
Jason has seen too many examples of 'falling' in the City That Never Sleeps.
A 'lone wanderer' who is out of the way, after suddenly becoming 'rich' because of a 'windfall', is immersed in the sound of dogs and horses, and by the time the other party comes back to his senses, his body has already become sluggish, and his will has become even more cowardly.
Don't say you're a 'lone wanderer' again.
You can't even live in the 'safe zone'.
Jason didn't want to be like that.
He wanted to live longer.
I want to live like a human being.
"Remember the pain of this time."
"It proves that you are alive."
"It's not a nice process, but it's what you want."
Jason stood firm in his beliefs.
Soon, the room was filled with televisions, the sound of pages turning and chewing.
At first, Jason paid a little attention to the live broadcast on TV.
But soon, he was drawn to the book's content.
The palm of his hand mechanically grasped the 'nutritious meal' and put it into his mouth, and his eyes were staring directly at the contents of the pageββ
Area F, once known as the 'Kingdom of Rogo', was a very wealthy kingdom before the establishment of the Great Federation, relying on the port trade and its own seafood, the citizens of the Kingdom of Rogo were quite wealthy.
Each person has more wealth at his disposal than any other kingdom.
It's just that a 'rebellion' changed everything.
Rogor XIII was killed by his own uncle in the council hall.
The head was hung outside the palace.
And before the 'Kingkiller' could put on the crown, he was killed by the younger brother of Rogo XIII.
A team of 100 people, led by this 'King of Diligence', broke through the blockade of the army and implemented a beheading plan.
Everyone thought this 'turmoil' was over.
But when the 'diligent king' became the 'king', a terrible disaster struck.
Death!
All the people in the kingdom began to die one after another.
Without warning!
One moment he was still talking and laughing, and the next moment he was dying directly.
This is true for men, women, children, and the elderly.
It doesn't matter if you are an ordinary person or a dignitary, no one can escape.
The 'new king' immediately ordered an investigation.
But to no avail.
Doctors couldn't find a cause.
The soldiers could not find the culprit.
Yes, it's just death.
People died in patches, like waves of wheat blown by the wind, and the wheat was cut by a sharp blade, and fell down in unison.
'I'm not wrong! It's the world that's wrong! β
When the 'new king' uttered these words, he died silently, just like his subjects.
The countries of the world have blocked all entry and exit points to the 'Kingdom of Rogo'.
It didn't open until half a year later.
At this time, the people of the 'Kingdom of Rogo' were dead.
Everyone, all dead.
Even livestock, animals, plants are no exception.
There is no life.
High-rise buildings collapsed and the ground cracked.
It's a complete apocalyptic sight.
Jason looked at the illustrations in the book, and thought crossed his eyes.
What happened?
Pestilence?
Still is......
Some kind of ritual?
The possibility of a plague is not very high, with the medical level of the 'Rogo Kingdom' at the forefront of the whole world at that time, if there is a plague here, it is impossible for other countries to have nothing to do.
If it's a ceremony?
The whole kingdom was sacrificed?
For what?
Jason thought to himself, flipping through the second half of the book.
But after just a few pages, Jason completely lost interest.
The rest is all speculation by the author and various people.
Jason swept through none of the reliable ones.
What is collective suicide?
Although mass suicide exists, the entire kingdom, more than 100 million people, all commit suicide?
Could it be that the snap of the fingers was so loud that it got here?
Are you kidding!
"What's going on?"
Jason pondered, put down "Area F - The Nation Built on the Ruins" in his hand, and picked up "The First Birth of 'Crazy Games'".
Compared to the heaviness and large number of pages of "Zone F: A Nation Built on the Ruins", "The First Birth of 'Crazy Games'" is much thinner, less than 100 pages, and most of them are illustrated, each with a few sentences, which always gives Jason a feeling of being deceived - in his hometown, Jason has been deceived more than once by books that are beautifully packaged, with attractive titles and empty inside.
He doesn't know when he started to take a selfie at random and then add some excerpts to the text to be able to publish a book.
Maybe...... The author is good-looking?
It's really God's way of eating.
Jason expressed envy, jealousy, and hatred back then.
However, the author of this book "The First Birth of the 'Crazy Game'" is definitely not good-looking.
On the contrary, the other party is fierce and vicious.
And several of the main characters in the book are similar.
Because, they are a bunch of villains, perverts, and killers.
They created 'Hunting', the predecessor of the 'Crazy Game'.
Roughly a few of them kidnapped a few ordinary people, threw them into a woodland called a 'hunting ground', and then went on a three-day hunting operation.
Why three days, and not longer?
Because these people may go to work and need to earn money to support their families.
In normal times, they are all normal people.
Even, when they were sent to the electric chair, some people did not believe that they had killed more than 100 people because of 'hunting'.
And the key person who sent them to the 'electric chair' was their former target: a more perverted and chilling serial killer than them.
Compared to their fierce gods.
This one is polite and polite, with a so-called 'wife', as if he had broken into their hunting ground without noticing.
A race has begun for who is more evil.
The result is naturally needless to say.
The well-mannered one won a big victory.
But such a victory did not prevent the opponent from being sent to the electric chair as well.
And the year after these people died, a rich man learned about such a thing, and he began to hold a 'hunting' competition in a 'regular' way, and such a novel event attracted many people to join.
As more and more people join.
'Hunting' was officially renamed 'Crazy Games'.
Then, it began to be popular throughout the Great Federation.
Jason flipped through the illustrations again, and many of the pictures were so bloody that they needed to be mosaic, but they appeared directly in this book.
For Jason, though, it's nothing.
After looking through it again and confirming that there was nothing, Jason pressed the 'Nutritious Meal (Free) button again.
Bite!
The wonderful voice sounded again.
Jason's eyes began to look at the live TV.
At this time, the victor of the 'Survivors' appeared.
Two people.
One was a young man named 'your'.
The other is, Kalun.
Karen survived.
After getting Jason's 'tip', this young man who had just wandered on the brink of death began to burst out with eye-catching combat effectiveness and caution, as well as ...... Luck.
After finding a rusty logging axe in a dilapidated house, the young man set out on his own killing.
The other party turned into a real lumberjack and began to cut his own way out of the way with an axe.
After the victory, Karen first looked dull, and then, throwing away his axe, began to cry bitterly.
Seem......
Lost the most important thing.
This made the 'audience' watching the live broadcast ridicule again.
After all, the calm face of that 'your' is even more admirable.
Especially after the emergence of a 'crying bag' like Jialun.
Jason glanced at it and didn't pay any more attention.
Not only because he saw through the cowardly disguise of the so-called 'your', but also because his 'nutritious meal' arrived.
More importantly, of course, Jason's perception was that a man was coming from the outside towards his door.
Not the self-proclaimed 'contact' Persson.
The footsteps should be a little heavier.
Thinking about some of the information in the book he had just read, the corners of Jason's mouth curled slightly.
Can't wait?
The next moment, there was a knock on the doorβ
Knock, knock
(End of chapter)
