Two minutes later.
The cold mechanical voice echoed repeatedly over the manor.
[Announcement: Cherry Blossom Country Chosen is dead.]
[Announcement: Eagle Country Chosen is dead.]
The Dragon Country stream was instantly ignited with rage.
[Fuck! I'm furious!]
[Who was that animal who locked the door with wire and blocked the exit with a stone?!]
[Pure scum!! Ran away himself and cut off others' way out!]
[Those two so-called "teammates" behind him are absolute bastards!]
[Stepping on others' lives to observe the killing rules. They don't deserve to be human!]
[I'm shaking with anger. This is pure murder! Using the anomaly to kill, too dirty!]
Foreign comments immediately jumped out to mock:
[Dragon Country people are hypocritical saints.]
[Talking about morals in a horror game? Laughable!]
[Survival of the fittest! If the weak don't die, should the strong step on mines?]
[Smart people use idiots to survive. This is high-level survival strategy.]
[Just watch. Your Chen Shi will be played to death sooner or later!]
The Director sighed.
"Sigh... this is the most desperate part of rules horror."
"In this hellhole."
"You not only have to guard against anomalies in the dark."
"But also constantly guard against the living around you."
"Sometimes."
"Human malice is more deadly than an S-rank anomaly."
The person beside him looked grave.
"I hope Chen Shi realizes this soon and takes precautions."
Inside the cafeteria men's room.
Chen Shi had just unbuckled his belt.
Hearing the announcement.
He paused.
"Strange."
He frowned in confusion.
"Dinner hasn't officially started yet."
"How can people die one after another?"
"Are the anomalies acting this fast?"
Just then.
The manor's broadcast shrieked ear-piercingly:
"Dinner is now served. Please dine within ten minutes."
Chen Shi prepared to close the door and squat.
But out of the corner of his eye.
He saw a person standing outside the stall.
Startled.
He turned his head.
It was Elena.
Carrying a bottle of strong acid toilet cleaner.
Chen Shi instinctively covered his crotch.
Eyes wide.
"What are you doing?!"
Elena was expressionless.
"I had a bad feeling."
"So I came to check."
After speaking.
Her gaze naturally moved down.
Staring at the place Chen Shi covered.
Her tone flat.
"Big or small?"
Chen Shi froze.
Subconsciously answering:
"Big."
Elena narrowed her eyes slightly.
A rigorous look in her eyes.
"I'm not sure."
"After all, I haven't seen it yet."
Chen Shi's brain crashed instantly.
Eye twitching wildly.
"...Are we talking about the same thing?!"
Elena didn't answer again.
She nodded.
Pointing outside.
"I'm right at the door."
"If there's a problem, call me immediately."
Finished.
She turned and walked out of the stall.
The Dragon Country stream was caught off guard again.
[??? Goddamn 'haven't seen it so not sure'!]
[This car ran right over my face!]
[Is Elena here to protect Brother Chen, or to sexually harass him?]
[This woman drives too fast. Even thick-skinned Brother Chen can't handle it hahaha!]
After the brief teasing.
Veteran viewers in the Dragon Country stream immediately expressed worry:
[Brother Chen and Elena stand out too much.]
[The tall tree catches the wind.]
[Will they be targeted by veterans from other countries?]
As soon as the words fell.
The cafeteria doors were pushed open again.
Four or five burly, fierce-looking foreign Chosen walked in.
They looked around the empty cafeteria.
Their gaze quickly locked onto Elena standing outside the men's room.
They stopped.
Whispering.
"That Dragon Country rookie isn't in the hall... must be inside."
"Only he came this early. Good chance."
The scar-faced leader signaled.
Leading his men straight toward the toilet.
Elena leaned against the wall.
Still holding the bottle of toilet cleaner.
She narrowed her eyes.
Coldly watching the approaching group.
"Elena."
Scarface stopped two meters away.
Eyes gloomy.
"You, a grand clearance boss."
"Allied with that Dragon Country rookie?"
Elena was expressionless.
Tone natural.
"No. He's too weak."
Scarface grinned.
Revealing yellow teeth.
"Perfect then."
"Do us a favor."
"Help us lock his stall door and this main door with wire."
"Trap him inside to die."
He lowered his voice.
Greed flashing in his eyes.
"When the game ends."
"The bounty outside is enough for us to squander for lifetimes."
"We'll give you a share. How about it?"
Elena's expression shifted slightly.
A cold light flashed in her eyes.
She nodded faintly.
"Sure."
Hearing her agree.
The group opposite seemed to relax their vigilance.
Preparing to pass her to get the locking tools.
However!
The moment they crossed paths.
Scarface suddenly exploded into action!
A vicious whip kick aimed straight at Elena's face!
This strike was heavy and powerful.
Carrying a deadly wind sound.
Elena ducked and rolled sideways.
Barely avoiding this fatal blow.
But the wind from the kick still swept her shoulder.
She retreated several steps before stabilizing.
"Acted pretty well, bitch!"
Scarface missed.
Sneering and cracking his neck.
"According to my deduction."
"If you really wanted to kill him."
"With your skills."
"You would have done it in the church or the fog to enjoy the bounty alone."
"Why would you let us share?"
"You standing here."
"Are clearly guarding the door for him!"
Elena's face turned ugly instantly.
Although she was an awakened clearance player.
Her ability leaned toward intuition and rule analysis.
Head-on confrontation with humans wasn't her strong suit.
And these people before her.
Judging by their muscle mass and force techniques.
Were definitely top-tier special forces or mercenaries in reality.
In a hard fight.
She had zero chance of winning.
"Chen Shi!"
Elena decisively gave up the disguise.
Shouting into the toilet.
"Someone is here to kill you!"
After shouting.
She quickly unscrewed the cap of the toilet cleaner.
Like an alert leopard.
Using the narrow terrain of the corridor to circle with them.
This scene made the Dragon Country stream explode.
[Holy shit! Killing people so openly?! It's broad daylight!]
[Bounty? What bounty?! Are these people crazy!]
[Not conquering rules in a horror game, but running here to kill their own kind?!]
Amidst shock and confusion.
The official account sent bold red comments:
[Everyone, don't forget the essence of rules horror.]
[Losing means lost territory and national decline.]
[Winning means taking it all.]
[Chen Shi's potential is too terrifying.]
[To prevent Dragon Country from rising.]
[Hostile powers issued sky-high bounties on the dark web for potential rookies before the game started.]
[As long as they 'reasonably' kill Chen Shi in the dungeon.]
[They will gain wealth and privileges they can't spend in lifetimes.]
[In the eyes of these desperadoes.]
[Chen Shi isn't a human.]
[But a walking mountain of gold.]
This cold explanation plunged all Dragon Country viewers into an ice cave.
[Wait! Doesn't directly hurting people violate game rules?]
Immediately, a veteran replied:
[Direct lethal moves are risky, of course.]
[Didn't you see they didn't pull weapons?]
[As long as they don't cause direct fatal injuries.]
[Using the environment and rules to 'borrow a knife to kill'.]
[Will absolutely not trigger punishment!]
[Look at those three dogs who trapped Hasegawa earlier.]
[Locked the door.]
[Let the anomaly kill.]
[They didn't touch a drop of blood.]
[Not only unpunished.]
[But walked away swaggering!]
