Chapter 252: It’s 12PM!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ping ping ping!
The black “Hurricane” handgun in Feng Luo’s hand fired a string of bullets .
A Level 35 Elite forest python, silently slithering from the fallen leaves on the ground towards the position where the two of them were lying in ambush, was directly hit in the brain and killed by Feng Luo’s six bullets .
“Eh, Old Feng, why did you fire again? Don’t we want to ambush?” Big Pineapple turned to glance at him .
“It’s time . There should be no one around at the moment . ”
Feng Luo weighed “Hurricane” in his hand, still more satisfied with the feel of this gun . At the same time, he tore his eyes from the supply box used as a trap not for away .
“It’s time? What time?” Big Pineapple asked .
Peng, peng, peng…
A very vague sound traveled simultaneously from all directions into the two’s ears . Due to the cover of the trees, this sound was a little unrealistic .
“It’s 12PM!” Feng Luo raised his head to look at the noon sun’s rays in the sky . The sun today was quite scorching, and there was still a little warmth left in it as it shone on the skin even through the dense forest .
“12PM? Oh right, it’s the selection time . Well then, those sounds just now were the sounds of the explosion of the mini Energy Crystal bombs . ” There was shock in Big Pineapple’s eyes as he understood the situation .
“Everybody, those in the middle of combat, please pause for a while!” At that moment, the collars on both of their necks suddenly projected the semi-transparent virtual screen .
The army officer in a black uniform carried a smirk as his wrinkle-filled face appeared once more before everyone .
“I’m sure everyone has guessed what has just happened . Just now, those weaklings who weren’t able to pass the selection have been immediately eliminated . As for the number of people eliminated, I can tell y’all that it’s 50! That amount of people eliminated isn’t unusual, but the sight of 50 people exploding simultaneously is one of rare gorgeousness . I had to interrupt all of you who are still enjoying the killing game so that I could share the gorgeous scene with you . I hope everyone can properly enjoy the following few minutes!”
With that, the image on the screen changed suddenly . In a forest, a middle-aged NPC holding a dagger in his hand was running wildly like a madman . His eyes were full of red streaks and he had no concern at all for his whole body and face, which was full of wounds where it had been cut by tree branches and some plants . He was madly searching for people .

“Player number 103, as you have not earned 20 killing points, promotion failure, you’ll be obliterated!” Suddenly, the collar on his neck sounded a chilly voice of warning . At the same time, the warning lights on the entire collar changed into a continuously blinking lethal red color .
“No, no, I beg you! Give me a bit of time, give me a bit more time . I’ve already discovered his tracks, I’ll be able to find someone right away . I beg you, I beg…” The face of the middle-aged NPC instantly changed into ultimate fear as he yelled in panic .
“Obliteration engage!” The red lights on the collar blinked faster and faster until they were glaring at his pale-white face, seeping in like blood .
Then after a subsequent icy-cold sound, it exploded .
Peng!
The power of the mini Energy Crystal bombs with a directional release design was not very strong but it was sufficient to separate the head and the body of this middle-aged man . Flying blood and shredded flesh stained all the surrounding trees and plants into a patch of blood-red .
The scene changed .
On a beach, two people were wrestling each other . They had caught hold of each other’s necks, and both of their faces were ashen as they used all their might and will to kill each other .
“Die, you die!”
“Die already!”
Indistinct words came from their mouths .
They were using various parts of their body to attack each other, even biting each other’s neck and ears .
“Player number 453! Player number 790! You have not earned 20 killing points, promotion failure, you’ll be obliterated!”
At that moment, each of their collars sounded the same chilly voice of warning, and the red light on them started to quickly flash .
“No!”
Both their faces showed ultimate fear .
“Obliteration engage!”
Peng!
With the two explosions sounding at once, the beach was stained red with blood .
Some shreds of flesh and blood had flown into the water due to the explosion, attracting the “boiling” of the water surface as countless man-eating fish fought .
The scene changed again .
On the grass in a forest, a woman had already fallen on a pool of blood . A male NPC wearing a matching couple attire the same as hers was using a very sharp stone to heavily smash her head again and again .
“Die! Die already, hurry up and die! I’m sorry, Sha, I just want to live!”
After hitting her more than 10 times, this NPC youth seemed to break down as he suddenly threw down the blood-stained stone and collapsed onto the ground, crying painfully .

“Player number 650, as you currently have not earned 20 killing points, promotion failure, you’ll be obliterated!”
At that moment, his collar suddenly produced a chilly voice, at the same time a blood-red light started to blink .
“No, no!”
“I’ve killed someone, I’ve obviously already killed her . You’ve got it wrong, you’ve got it wrong…”
The face of this NPC young man was instantly filled with fear as he pointed at the woman already motionless on the ground .
At that moment, the “dead” woman suddenly moved slightly and spat out a huge amount of blood from her mouth . Her movement revealed her neck which had been covered by her hair .
Her collar which was already completely covered in blood was similarly blinking quickly with red light!
“No!”
The young man of the couple shown ultimate fear on his face and stretched out a hand, wanting to pick up that stone beside him once more . But on the already blood-stained red ground, it was impossible to tell where that same stone which had similarly been stained in red was .
“Obliteration engage!”
Peng!
The images on the screen switched one after another, each time a small section of the scene before death . At last, these death scenes shrunk and were arranged together to occupy the entire transparent screen .
Pleas, curses, screams of pain and the final sounds of explosion fused into one, overwhelming ears and eyes beyond toleration .
Feng Luo believed that if it were female players of normal temperament who had seen these scenes, they probably would have already vomited as much as they could . He and Big Pineapple were people with a steady temperament, so they only looked at the images with cold eyes without too much of a reaction .
“F*ck, is this a little too sickening? I can’t watch it anymore . I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to stand it . ” Big Pineapple immediately turned his head to the side and shut his eyes .
Feng Luo took back what he had thought!
“The previous time in the sea, due to the angle, y’all probably didn’t see very clearly . With so many explosion scenes just now, bet y’all have all already very clearly understood the effect of the bombs on your necks! So, don’t hold on to any luck . Only by killing others and then earning sufficient points will you be able to avoid the fate of being eliminated and survive in this game to the end . ”
The screen switched back to the cold smiling face of the army officer in black uniform .
“Let me announce now that after the elimination selection just now, there are still 334 people left . Very luckily, this number has already reached our originally planned number of eliminations . As such, following this, y’all will be able to have six hours of rest time . In this period of time, we will not be releasing any special missions, but y’all can still kill to get points . Tonight, there’ll be even more exciting gameplay!”
The voice of the army officer in black uniform carried a taste of mockery, after which his face became stern once more .
“One last point . From now onwards, for all the remaining people, the basic killing points earned from killing opponents will be increased by 50 points . With every person killed, the killing points he contributes after his death will be increased, without limit! This means that your earnings will be largely increased . Furthermore, if you’re able to kill that person now ranked first, you’ll be able to earn more than 500 killing points, immediately pushing you up by 30 spots! Isn’t that an attractive proposition? Let me just say that she has already killed 39 people, so some of you had better cooperate and gang up to kill her . My personal suggestion is that at least 10 people will be needed to secure victory!”
With a last signature mocking laugh by the army officer in black uniform, the image on the screen vanished with a flash .
“Attractive my *ss! This is totally letting our previously hard-earned advantage in points instantly be canceled out!” Big Pineapple’s mental reaction this time was extremely quick . He had instantly figured out that this point adjustment which was seemingly a “reward” was actually a kind of “impairment” to those who had already obtained an advantage earlier on .
“The rules are up to them to set, we have no choice . It may not be a bad thing . ” Feng Luo was rather unconcerned by the change; he would be continuing to kill anyway .
Moreover, with the increase in value of heads, it was definitely a good thing to him, as it also meant that the time for unlocking the “Pet Space Bracer” could be pushed forward .
“However, six hours of time . Bet it’s not possible for most of the people to “rest” at all…”
Feng Luo thought about it with calm eyes . He would not be wasting this period of time . But for tonight, what activity would there be? This was rather worth looking forward to .

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields.

The Eye in the Sky
People have always thought that the undead would come from hell - that they would rise from their graves to bring their torments upon the earth.

Every day was a struggle to survive just as it had always been. He, as well as most of the survivors that remained on earth, had resigned themselves to a life of wandering until their deaths.

But then they encounter a girl who had survived in the middle of a heavily-infested city. She claims that she knows of a way to end the apocalypse once and for all. What should he and his group do?
