There is no such thing as a dead rabbit or a fox sad, a thousand players are competitors to each other. Although you can only advance if you complete the mission, the fewer people you have, the better.

28 players use their failures to find out the rules of the dungeon for the rest of the players.

In this quest, any move made by the player will arouse the suspicion of the evil spirit. So it's crucial to successfully play an 11-year-old.

For example, the safest way is to be decent.

During recess, players leave the school building without falling behind.

The school is located on a plain near the coastline. Overcast clouds obscured the light source, and gloom pervaded.

The school building is located by the sea, on a slope twenty or thirty meters above the ground. The simple wooden longhouses are lined up to serve as classrooms and offices. The rest of the area is a large sand and gravel clearing where children are playing freely after class.

The longhouse classrooms are backed by the sea, and the plain beyond the dirt slope is a low-rise hut that stretches for kilometers. Occasionally, two- or three-story buildings or bluestone houses stand out from the crowd.

It can be preliminarily judged that the scientific level of the Overworld is still around the Iron Age.

The season may be spring and summer, but there is not a trace of greenery in sight. Whether it's a gathering place on or below a dirt slope.

The water off the coast behind is a strange grey color, occasionally blown up by the sea breeze, and the salty and moist smell of the sea is mixed with an unsettling rancid stench.

Countless threads of black mist snake their way through the clouds and fall above the players' heads. And this thriller scene can only be seen by players.

Player Shadow Crazy can't wait to get to know here. But the gaze of the evil spirit made it impossible for him to speak.

"Sophia was missing last night...... Father said that it had taken refuge elsewhere, like other sparrows. ”

The little boy's complaint was brought into the crazy ears of the murmur by the sea breeze. His expression shifted slightly, and he looked sideways at a pile of simple wooden benches at the edge of the clearing.

A little boy is talking to a little girl with short hair.

The voice painting pretended to wander around and approached, pricking up his ears to eavesdrop not far from them.

"Don't worry, it might be back." The little girl comforted him.

"I don't know...... It didn't even call me when it left. "The little boy's head is getting lower and lower, and he is very lost." Why do you say we want to stay at Wanghaijiao and not leave......"

"Probably...... I don't know. ”

The other players caught the attention of the other players, who followed suit, or talked to the kids in the name of making friends.

As the information continues to grow, the fog that has enveloped players is gradually dissipating.

The plant withered in patches, and the cause is unknown.

The Endless Sea has a large number of dead fish washed ashore all day long, and it has become stinky and inedible.

Creatures such as butterflies, bees, and birds disappeared and did not appear after winter.

The churches warned of the evil spirits and told the inhabitants of the gathering place to defend themselves, while the wealthy people left the cape.

Every few days, a thick fog drifts from the seashore that cannot be dispelled, and the fog is full of strange presence, and the only way is to hide in the room, away from the window, and stay in a place where there is light.

The Overworld at this time is even harsher than players expected.

Dead, gray and gloomy.

It's like the world ...... is gradually moving towards death.

Players are chilled. Some big-hearted children chased and fought in the open space, and laughter and laughter could not dispel the shadows in their hearts.

When the participating players inquired about the news, the watching players were not busy. There are players who watch and make a reasoned analysis.

The various missions in the first round of the Death Tournament can be understood as the ability to clear the level, and the second round can be seen as physical fitness or haste and wit. The third round is the most obvious, camouflaged.

The third round is clearly not the final. That is, there is a fourth round or even a fifth round, until the final round.

So here's the problem. What kind of finals require players to have a certain level of clearance ability, good physical fitness and intelligence, and camouflage ability?

Many players have engaged in all kinds of discussions and speculations, but they can only guess.

While the other players were busy thinking about how to survive, Matsu was ...... Create small groups.

"You want to mess with me?"

The half-human-tall stone Shangmu Su sat cross-legged, his hands in his loose linen jacket, and his tone was proud.

Under the stones, the two little boys who looked up at Mu Su nodded unneatly. The names above their respective heads are Freedom Wind and Wei Xuan.

This kind of cooperation is not uncommon, and players have begun to look for familiar players to work with. The top 10 players in the second round were particularly popular. However, although Mu Su had impressed everyone before, only two players came to him.

After all, he treats his teammates with the same frustration.

Most players don't want to work with a ticking time bomb.

Mu Su thought about it seriously and his expression moved: "Our team is called 'Mu Su and his two little followers', do you think it's good?" ”

Mu Su skips the previous few steps and goes straight to the name.

The two players look at each other and are torn.

They're going to cooperate, not to be sidekicks......

It's actually nothing to be a follower, but now it's a live broadcast, and millions or maybe millions of players are watching......

Mu Su was very impatient to urge the two to make a statement, and his fingers trembled impatiently.

The black mist claws above his head also trembled restlessly, impatient.

Wei Xuan looked up tentatively and asked him, "Can I know what we're going to do after we join?" ”

"Skipping class, of course!" Mu Su got up and stood up excitedly, and the Black Mist Withered Claw had to retract some distance to avoid touching Mu Su.

“……？” The wind of freedom stretched its neck as if it didn't hear clearly, revealing a hint of confusion.

He heard Mu Su's words clearly, but he didn't seem to hear them clearly.

"As a child, wouldn't it make sense to want to go out and play if you don't want to go to class? Even if the evil ones—"

The black mist claws twisted and elongated, and the eyes of the two people opposite them showed horror.

Mu Su suddenly said dryly: "-What if the ruthless teaching director knows." ”

The Black Mist Claw came to a halt in front of Musu's hair.

The two of them were terrified, they just wanted to find someone to cooperate in clearing the customs instead of accompanying Mu Su to skip class and die.

"Forget it...... My mom wants me to go to school. ”

"Me too!"

The two players were afraid that Mu Su would run away like a retainer,

"Coward."

Mu Su sneered disdainfully, squatted down and sat down on the rock again, continuing to hold his chin in contemplation.

A few minutes later, an elderly man rang the bell outside the office cabin, and the students returned to their classrooms.

The second lesson, again botany, was taught to answer a question before the lesson.

A very weird question.

"What are you most afraid of?"

In order, the students answered in turn.

"I'm most scared...... Ghosted. ”

"Darkness ......"

"I am most afraid of my loved ones leaving me."

Soon it was Mu Su's turn, and he got up and coughed lightly: "Time moves forward inexorably, and finally brings us to an inevitable death. ”

What is your answer?

The players in the back can't go on.
