The color on the 'door' faded away, revealing the 'contactee' Pers.
Different from the previous meetings, Perls, the 'contactee' who had always remained calm and gentle, had a strange look on his face at this time. Even if he wanted to hide it, it still showed.
what happened?
Jason guessed based on the other person's expression.
The next moment, the 'contact person' said straight to the point.
"Beard just got into a car accident."
"The person fell into a coma."
"After testing at the hospital, there is a high probability that he will become a vegetative state."
As soon as he finished speaking, Perls looked at Jason.
It's not staring, let alone peeping.
But it's kind of strange.
Or rather, it’s an inexplicable feeling.
This feeling made Jason a little uncomfortable.
He felt that Pers looked at him as if he were looking at a 'disaster star'.
Sender 9 met him and died.
Beard met him and became a vegetable.
But what does this have to do with Jason?
It's all planned by others.
He, Jason, is innocent.
"Cough, cough, player Jason, no offense intended."
‘Contactee’ Pers coughed twice and began to adjust his mood.
The look he had before, Perls assured himself, was not intentional.
What a coincidence.
It was such a coincidence that he had to think more about it.
However, now that he has calmed down, he also believes that these two things should be targeted.
Someone took action against the 'Send Family'.
Jason is innocent.
was involved in it.
Can……
The Sender family would never think so.
With that family's style, he could definitely think of what to do next.
He must not be harmed by Chiyu.
Thinking of this, the 'contactee' Pers regretted coming here directly.
He should wait.
He would come again when someone from above was sent to inquire.
Instead of coming directly out of curiosity.
Damn curiosity!
I clearly warned myself to stay calm!
But things have already happened.
There was no room for him to be upset anymore.
Can it be remedied?
Pers was thinking in his heart, and his face showed confusion unconsciously.
"Contestant Jason, if anything happens, please press the pager."
"I'm here 24 hours a day."
Pers said these words and turned to leave.
As for what to say to Jason?
What he said before was the limit of being a 'contact person'. If he spoke any more, he would really be eliminated by the 'Send Family'.
And, even so.
Now this 'contactee' is already on tenterhooks.
In Perls' mind, some 'adventurous' approaches have emerged.
Pers turned and left, and the color of the 'door' returned to normal again.
Jason stared at the 'door'.
There was a trace of amusement on the face hidden by the mask.
When Sender 9 was assassinated and died, Jason had an intuition that someone was planning something.
Beard's accidental car accident confirmed his intuition.
And now?
The appearance of Perls made him even more certain.
Of course, Perls has nothing to do with the 'arranger'.
This 'contact' should be the same 'chess piece' as Jialun.
To put it simply, Perls and Jialun should have been carefully selected by this ‘arranger’.
Jialun's kindness, diligence but not cowardice are what the other party cares about.
What valued Perls was his hidden curiosity and impulse.
According to Jason's reasoning, if it weren't for curiosity, Perls would never have appeared at this time. Instead, he should have chosen a more appropriate time.
For example, someone is accompanying you.
Or simply, an order was given.
But if he appears alone at this time, Pers will fall into absolute passivity.
If he were Perls, what would he do at this time?
The videos here will most likely be deleted.
But if he does this, Perls will fall into another trap of the 'arranger'.
Then, you are stuck in the mud and cannot extricate yourself.
And all of this was expected by the ‘arranger’.
"What do you want?"
"Send family?"
"Or... bigger?"
Jason was thinking in his heart, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
He has not forgotten his identity: the Wild Hunter.
A murderer who is called the "Wild Hunter" by the "audience" and most of the time, but is called the "Sorcerer" in the official books.
Similarly, the 'arranger' planned so much, how could he be forgotten?
He is also a chess piece.
The same chess pieces as Jialun and Pers.
But there are some differences.
The identity of his chess piece is 'random' and not fixed.
In the beginning, he was not a 'chess piece'. His identity as a 'chess piece' was established when he became the 'winner' in the preliminary round.
In other words, whoever becomes the ‘winner’ in the previous preliminary round is the winner.
It doesn't matter if it's the 'big boy', the 'wheelchair collector', or the 'head collector'.
However, this method of ‘arrangement’ has quite a few uncertainties.
It is not easy for the other party to quickly arrange for Pers as a 'contact person'.
so--
"This planner not only has a considerable status on the 'game' side, but has also arranged everything long ago. What he is waiting for is for me or other 'Wild Hunters' to appear and start this plan."
“Thinking about it now, the choice of ‘Wild Hunter’ in previous games was a bit strange.”
"The 'Big Boy' is a wild hunter with a bad temper and abnormal IQ. The 'Skull Collector' is even more like a wild beast, and even difficult to communicate with."
"And the 'Wheelchair Thinker' is a very smart guy, but lacks frontal strength."
"As for me?"
"The me shown in the information... is also a bit abnormal."
"Based on this premise, I, the 'Big Boy' and the 'Skull Collector' have a great chance of becoming the winners."
"And that's what the 'layout man' wanted."
"The other side needs a not-so-smart 'chess piece' to set everything in motion."
Jason gradually cleared his mind.
Then?
He continued to flip through the books in his hands.
Jason knew very well that even if he thought about these things, it would be useless.
Tell someone?
He is a 'Wild Hunter', a murderer.
Who will listen to him?
What's more, what's happening in front of him doesn't really 'hurt' him.
On the contrary, Jason felt that if things continued to develop, he might have unexpected benefits.
Of course, some necessary 'safety' measures must also be prepared in advance.
However, that will happen later.
Now?
bite!
Jason pressed the 'Nutritional Meal (Free)' button again.
He gets hungry when he reads a book.
As soon as he thought about it, he wanted to eat.
Fortunately, the nutritious meals here are free.
After the nutritious meal was delivered, Jason continued to read the books while holding the nutritious meal.
Eat and read.
Read books and eat.
Time passed in this repeated cycle.
The third night.
‘Contactee’ Pers appears again.
"Contestant Jason, the rematch in Area F will start in one hour, please prepare."
Pers said this.
This 'contactee' had an unconcealable tiredness on his face.
Obviously, the other party has not been having a good time these past few days.
Are you suffering internally?
Jason thought.
As for preparation?
Jason had already received the news from the live TV broadcast that he would participate in the rematch today. He had already adjusted everything and did not need to make any more preparations.
"If you are not prepared, I will put you to sleep again."
Pers asked.
Jason still nodded silently.
Then, the remote control appeared again in the hands of 'Contactee' Perls.
Pers pressed the green button.
The sleepiness came again.
Jason lay down.
Tread, step.
Click!
A group of heavily armed soldiers appeared in the corridor, just like the first time they transported Jason. At this time, they once again transported Jason to the new 'playing venue'.
Jason could feel his hands and feet, and his waist was once again bound by chains.
Then, the sleepiness began to disappear.
Jason took advantage of the time when his sleepiness disappeared and opened his eyes.
Another cell.
It wasn't much different from the cell he woke up in last time.
The only difference is that the 10-inch screen has already appeared, and the short-handled wide-blade machete is directly at his hand.
"Contestant Jason, I'm so happy to see you again!"
The black figure on the screen said in an electronically synthesized voice as always.
Then, the 'introducer' stood up and made a welcoming gesture.
Suddenly, the sounds of 'cheers' and 'applause' dubbed by sitcoms appeared again.
"It seems that everyone is looking forward to our 'Jason'."
"After all, player Jason's performance last time was really amazing."
"One wears three!"
"Even in my hosting career, it's rare."
The black shadow said in amazement.
Then, highlight clips of Jason's last game began to appear on the screen.
Especially when the killing moments of the 'Big Boy', 'Wheelchair Thinker' and 'Head Collector' were played continuously.
Snap, snap.
Applause appeared again.
Moreover, it was louder than before.
Jason sat still.
Hot spot?
After watching the live broadcast of the 'Game' for three consecutive days, Jason has learned more about the 'Crazy Game'.
It was similar to the hot field in front of me, even more familiar.
Use the wonderful moments of the previous game to attract more people's expectations.
Even, some 'special' post-production will be added.
In general, it is to attract traffic.
Jason didn't have much interest in this.
What interests him is the 'rematch' before him.
In the very encouraging words of the 'introducer', time passed quickly. When a countdown of 4:59 appeared directly above, the 'introducer' got to the point.
"The rematch starts immediately!"
"Let me introduce the rules to you!"
"This time we chose the most classic map 'Crazy Town' - are you a little disappointed?"
“Don’t be disappointed!”
“The map is old though!”
"But the rules are new!"
After the 'introducer' said this, he paused deliberately.
When there was an expectant "oh", he continued in a pretentious manner.
"In the new rules, the 4 'violators' remain unchanged, the 100 'escapists' remain unchanged, and the points will not change. It is still 20 points for the 'wild hunter', 1 point for each 'escapist', and 20
points to win”
"but!"
"There are 4 'green little doors'!"
"That's right! You heard that right!"
"There are 3 more small doors for escapees!"
"besides--"
"When the game enters the second stage, there will be unexpected surprises."
"What is the second phase of the game?"
"There are only 2 'violators' left present."
"Or when the total number of 'survivors' drops to 60, the game will enter the second stage."
"As for what the surprise is?"
"Please wait and see."
In a tone full of words, Black Shadow finished introducing the rules of the rematch.
4 escape doors?
Jason felt a hint of malice through the other party's words.
There is no doubt that the 4 escape doors will make hunting the ‘Razor’ difficult.
The chances of the 'escapists' escaping are greatly increased.
Unless the 4 'violators' cooperate with each other.
But is this possible?
At least, Jason would not choose such cooperation.
He couldn't trust the other party.
Naturally, the other party would not believe him.
And the second stage?
Unknown.
There is no information.
This concerned Jason even more.
Will it be more accurate targeting?
Such a premise made Jason feel wary.
As for the surprise mentioned by the ‘introducer’?
Jason wouldn't believe everything the other person said.
If you really believe in the other person, then you are not far from death.
"Contestant Jason, do you have anything to ask?"
"Or do you have any declaration?"
"As the winner of the last preliminary round, everyone wants to hear what you have to say."
The 'black shadow' on the screen began to ask.
Jason remained silent.
This silence lasted about 3 seconds.
The 'audiences' who had been watching Jason laughed out loud.
"Hahaha, it's the first time I see an 'introducer' so embarrassed."
"I suspect 'Jason' is mute!"
"I'll beat Jason again with all my net worth!"
"Didn't you win over Jason last time and buy a house?"
"Yes, I won against Jason last time, but the house prices rose too fast. The full payment I thought was just the down payment! So, this time, I'm going to put all my money in it again!"
"Bet upstairs. Dog. Don't explain."
"+1!"
…
Barrage after barrage floated by.
It means that Jason's score is rising steadily.
Jason's countdown began to increase.
In the last game, all the 'audiences' were deeply impressed by Jason, and this directly affected this game.
Finally, in a sea of scarlet, Jason got a score of 58.
"High score of 58!"
"It seems like everyone is really optimistic about player Jason!"
"So--"
"Contestant Jason, you have a special choice."
As the 'introducer' spoke, a change appeared on the 10-inch small screen.
