Chapter 130: Chapter 120 Childhood Gas: Drop the Handkerchief [Vote for Monthly Ticket!]
Without any hesitation, a group of people imdiately left the resting room and then ca to the escalator.
As they stepped onto the escalator, the previously halted escalator instantly started, carrying the eight people up to the next floor.
Zhou Wen, Mu Rufeng, Cheng Youlin, Zhao Rong, Wang Tianlong, Zhang Xin, Hu Zhong, Liu Zheng—eight contractors in total.
It was after Zhou Wen and the others left Level L2 and headed to L3.
Six minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Level L7, the open-air layer.
The crowd of five hundred seventy-seven spectators suddenly reduced by one hundred, leaving four hundred seventy-seven.
And those missing one hundred had already appeared inside the blood-lined circle on L2.
It was at this mont that a notification sounded simultaneously in the minds of these one hundred players.
“Welco everyone to the first level: Let’s All Play Dodgeball Together.”
“Dodgeball Ga Rules”
1, …
3, If an evader catches the dodgeball, they can gain an extra life or resurrect an eliminated player, or even swap roles with the thrower. Note: Each ga only allows two swaps of roles.
…
8, Kitties hate being called ‘Little ow ow,’ and Wang Cai hates being called by his na; do not try to provoke them, or they will eliminate you first.
The rules of the dodgeball ga were almost the sa as before, except for the third rule, which had been modified by Mu Rufeng.
“Holy shit, the rules really changed.”
“Haha, there should be no problems this ti.”
“Does everyone understand? We can be resurrected, so don’t be afraid of dying.”
“Yes, don’t be afraid of dying. Don’t dodge the balls; catch them. As soon as you catch one, swap roles with the thrower imdiately, and after the swap, throw it to another to swap again. This way, we can resurrect those who died before.”
These one hundred participants were not panicked or fearful like the previous groups; instead, they were extrely excited and thrilled.
After all, the advantage was really on their side.
“Eh, who are the throwers? Are they those contractor bosses or new tricks?” soone suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, everyone else realized that there were no throwers appearing on either side of the circle.
“Throwers, please take your positions! Throwers, please take your… throw… throw… please… position… position…”
The notification sound suddenly stalled.
Then, there was no more sound.
Seeing this, the hundred people looked at each other in confusion.
“That… has the dodgeball ga crashed?” a rookie player spoke.
“It should, seems like, probably has crashed?”
“We’re not sure yet; let’s wait a bit longer and see what happens.”
“Yeah, let’s wait…”
In the blink of an eye, ten minutes had passed.
Still no response.
And because ten minutes had elapsed, the blood-lined circle on the ground vanished.
Yet still, no one dared move or step beyond the previous boundary of the blood-lined circle.
After so more ti, finally, a bold rookie stepped out.
There was no response, no elimination, nor any other danger.
Seeing this, everyone else also started to move around and even went back to the rest room to eat, drink, and even use the toilet.
What was most surprising was that the rookies who were supposed to participate in the second stage of the ga, resurrected by Mu Rufeng and the others, were also stalled by the crashed ga and weren’t forced to go to L2.
Thus, they finally confird that the dodgeball ga had crashed.
The one hundred thirty-one rookies on L2 and the four hundred seventy-seven spectators were all safe.
Of course, it was not ruled out that the crashed ga might restart, but that possibility should be very small.
…
Ti rewound.
Mu Rufeng and the others arrived on L3.
The layout of L3 was basically the sa as L2.
Up ahead on the open ground, there were many bloodstains, and similarly, there were bodies.
Just like downstairs, their heads had exploded, totaling twenty bodies.
“I don’t see anyone; could they be in the rest room? There were over a hundred new players in the first two rounds,” Cheng Youlin murmured.
“I didn’t see Captain Tianbu and Lao Hei either,” Mu Rufeng said solemnly.
“Anyway, let’s go check out what this second ga is,” Zhou Wen said, his expression unchanged, as he strode forward.
Just as everyone had taken a step inside, before any notification sounded, they saw the door of the rest room on the side open, and a large group of people slowly walked out.
There were many people, at least several dozens.
When they saw Mu Rufeng and the others, they were montarily stunned and then shook their heads.
So even looked at Mu Rufeng with pity.
Because to them, the survival of this ga level was simply impossible.
The only way was to use nurical advantage to offset the danger, sacrificing a few to save the majority.
Mu Rufeng could see confusion, numbness, and despair in their eyes.
“We are Contractors from the relevant departnt, have you seen others like us?” Zhou Wen shouted to the crowd at this point.
The crowd, attracted by his voice, looked over, and soone spoke up, “Yes, we’ve seen three. They were very impressive and managed to pass the level without any deaths.”
“Are you from the departnt too? Contractors? But it’s useless, we’re heading to the third level, and we’re sure to be done for.”
“Wuwuwu, I don’t want to die, why, why did I co here for a trip, wuwuwu~~!”
With a girl’s sobbing, the mood among the crowd turned even gloomier.
“Tianbu must have told you that you’re not Contractors. The difficulty level of the ga can only reach human limits. As long as you are brave and ticulous, you can definitely make it back alive.”
Zhou Wen was comforting the crowd.
However, the crowd only gave Zhou Wen a few more glances before moving on without further heed.
Silence resud among the crowd, but then soone else spoke up, “You should worry about yourselves first. The fewer the people, the higher the mortality rate.”
“What ga is this level? Is there anything we should be mindful of?” Cheng Youlin asked.
“You will find out soon,” soone replied.
Soon, the group took the escalator up to L4.
At that mont, a notification appeared in Mu Rufeng’s mind.
[Welco everyone to level two: Let’s Play Drop the Handkerchief.]
[Number of players: 8]
[Drop the Handkerchief Ga Rules]
1. Participants must hold hands and sit on the ground at an equal distance from one another.
2. Participants cannot attack each other or the handkerchief dropper – those who do will be directly eliminated.
3. When the ga starts and music begins playing, the handkerchief dropper will circle around the participants, randomly dropping their handkerchief. Those targeted must be aware imdiately, then chase the dropper clockwise. If they fail to catch the dropper before he sits in their spot, they will be directly eliminated.
4. If the targeted participant does not detect the handkerchief behind them and the dropper completes a circle and touches them, they can eliminate the target directly.
5. The handkerchief dropper will definitely drop the handkerchief within three rounds.
6. If the targeted participant successfully catches the handkerchief dropper, they can pass the level imdiately.
7. Each ti the handkerchief dropper is caught, their speed will decrease by ten percent.
8. The duration of the ga is set to one song. After three rounds, the ga ends, and any surviving players will pass the level.
9. If the number of active players falls below three, they will directly pass the level.
[Players please get ready, the ga countdown begins: 180, 179, 178 …]
At the sa ti, a ring of light suddenly appeared beneath their feet.
And on the ring of light, spaced a small distance apart, there were larger light markings – exactly eight, clearly ant for the eight of them to sit.
“Drop the Handkerchief?” Mu Rufeng was slightly taken aback.
“My goodness, are these levels all gas we played as children?” Cheng Youlin remarked emotionally.
“The first level was Sandbag Throw, and now the second is Drop the Handkerchief. It’s likely,” Mu Rufeng nodded and said.
“Xiao Mu, can that one-ti Rule Item still be used?” Zhou Wen looked at Mu Rufeng and asked.
“Let try,” Mu Rufeng said and then summoned a piece of paper and a pen with a thought.
Without waiting for Mu Rufeng to speak, Zhou Wen imdiately sighed in relief.
The appearance of the paper and pen ant that Mu Rufeng’s ability to modify rules was still usable in the second ga.
“Xiao Mu, try adding a rule to bring back eliminated players,” Zhou Wen said.
Mu Rufeng nodded, “I’ll give it a try.”
Imdiately, Mu Rufeng added a section after the sixth rule.
[If the targeted participant successfully catches the handkerchief dropper, they can pass the level imdiately, revive one eliminated player, or beco the handkerchief dropper.]
Mu Rufeng silently looked at the piece of paper after writing.
Zhou Wen and the others gathered around as they could also see the rules written on the paper, so they stared intently at it.
However, to everyone’s disappointnt, the rule Mu Rufeng had added started to distort and was then slowly erased.
“Hmm? It’s gone?” Mu Rufeng frowned.
After a mont of contemplation, Mu Rufeng was ready to modify the fifth rule again.
At that point, Zhou Wen spoke up, “The rule to revive normal players is very important, but we still have to consider that the handkerchief might be dropped behind the revivified normal players.”
“And, not all eight of us may catch the handkerchief dropper.”
Hearing this, Mu Rufeng paused montarily, then said, “Reviving is still most crucial, I’ll try again.”
Saying that, Mu Rufeng modified the fifth rule again.
[If the targeted participant successfully catches the handkerchief dropper, they can pass the level imdiately, revive one eliminated player, and the revived player will not participate in this current ga.]
