#436 - Chapter 425 Too Arrogant
"Now then, please make your choice."
"Leave, or fight!"
The man in silver armor continued, "This is the last chance to choose. Once you stay, it may mean the gates of hell are open for you."
His voice was low, and this was not an exaggerated threat.
It was a fact.
Why it was called the Arena of Life and Death, the word 'Life and Death' was naturally the key. After each competition, the survivors were often less than half.
The mortality rate was frighteningly high.
"I quit!"
Soon, someone raised their hand, and when making this decision, his gaze lingered on Jiang Han for a moment.
Obviously, his reason for withdrawing had a lot to do with Jiang Han.
"I quit too."
"I quit."
"…"
Soon, many more people made their decisions.
In a short period of time, nearly a hundred people withdrew, which was more than double the withdrawal rate of previous years.
In the end, only four hundred and sixty people decided to participate in the second round of testing!
The number was only half of the previous session!
"As expected…"
The man in silver armor sighed softly, not feeling surprised.
For most people, the goal was not the championship, but to stay until the third round, because by then, the King would also see their performance, and there would be good rewards.
If they were lucky and were favored because of some unique means, they might even be able to stay and serve in the Royal Court.
But now, the sudden appearance of a monster who broke history, such an abnormal situation, made many people afraid to gamble, feeling that they could not survive the second round at all.
The deterrence of the double crimson was that exaggerated.
"But it's also good, this way, the second round of testing will be much shorter."
The man in silver armor thought to himself, then announced loudly, "Then, the teleportation array is open, everyone, enter it."
"Your task is to obtain as many points as possible!"
"Fight freely! Obtain glory in the bloodshed, and then, live on!"
As the man's high-pitched voice echoed in the air, not far away, a huge teleportation array lit up, mysterious runes rotating in the air, dazzling to the extreme.
Everyone quickly moved and entered it.
Since they had decided to participate, there were naturally no hesitant people.
Buzz!
The scene in front of him changed rapidly. In the blink of an eye, Jiang Han found himself in a ruin.
A virtual panel appeared.
[Number: 666]
[Location: Dark Night Ruins]
[Current Points: 0]
[Ranking: None]
"Everyone, the game begins!" The voice of the man in silver armor sounded.
"A points race, huh." Jiang Han closed the panel.
The second round of testing was not complicated.
The huge teleportation array would randomly assign participants to four areas.
The people in the area would kill each other. Each kill would earn corresponding points, and the opponent's points would be transferred to you.
In the end, the top twelve in each area would stand out as winners.
In addition, there was a minimum score limit.
In the corresponding area, a score would be set based on the number of people. If the score was not exceeded by then, the ranking would not be able to enter the top twelve.
And, if no one enters the top twelve when time runs out, then…
Everyone is eliminated!
In short, all the rules were designed to make everyone start killing each other.
It was almost impossible to pass by luck.
Of course, you could choose to be a hunter and quickly accumulate points.
You could also be a lurker in the dark, waiting for the crucial moment to give the person with the highest points a fatal blow and obtain high points.
In this mixed situation, even the strongest person was in danger, because if you were too prominent, you might attract a siege from everyone.
Even a child understands the principle that two fists cannot defeat four hands.
So until the last moment, no one would know the result.
Maybe one second you are still the first place, infinitely glorious, and the next second you will be assassinated and fall into hell.
The Arena of Life and Death is stimulating because of this.
"It's starting, it's starting."
At this moment, outside, a virtual projection fell, and the audience was also looking forward to this exciting contest.
In addition to the four different scenes, they could see more direct information, who was assigned to which area, there were lists.
At the moment, the most attention was naturally on Jiang Han, numbered 666.
Then, there was the young assassin numbered 661, and Lester numbered 45.
These three were all strong contenders for the championship.
"It's a pity that they weren't assigned to the same area."
"I also wanted to see which of the three was stronger. It seems that this distribution is balanced enough to avoid strong players colliding in advance and being unable to enter the third round."
"It's always been like this, nothing to be surprised about. The key now is to see who has the higher score."
"Well… let's watch slowly."
The audience members were eager to see the most intense fight unfold.
"Huh? Look at the ruins area, number 666 moved! What is he going to do?!"
At this moment, someone exclaimed.
Immediately, gazes gathered in the ruins area, and then solidified.
Because they were surprised to find that at this moment, a figure was slowly rising into the air!
Such behavior was undoubtedly exposing himself to the sight of all participants in the area.
It's simply…
Too arrogant!
