Chapter 311: 311: Three Rules

Translator: 549690339

Twenty-three game zones have been detected around the city, these games are like hungry monsters that will move towards densely populated areas if not “fed” within seven days.

In order to maintain the space for human survival, an organization has established the following rules based on the characteristics of the games—

Firstly, each resident must participate in the game assigned by the organization;

Secondly, residents who refuse to participate in the assigned game will no longer receive food, housing, and strategies provided by the organization;

Thirdly, residents who submit game clear tools can exchange them for leave passes, offsetting one assigned game.

Du Lai briefly explained the current situation in the city to them.

Yan Qingwen thoughtfully nodded and said, “It’s an intelligent method. With 23 games, as long as each city resident takes turns, it can ensure that the games won’t move for a certain period of time, indirectly guaranteeing everyone’s safety.”

Bai Youwei also nodded, “If there are more than two thousand residents in the city, participating in a game every seven days, we could win three hundred days. With over four thousand residents, that equates to almost two years of peace. However, implementing this in reality may lead to various problems, right? For example, loss of population, how will it be accounted for? The number of people is bound to decrease over time.”

“Any policy changes over time, there has never been a method that remains unchanged and effective over ten or more years,” Yan Qingwen said, “When the time comes, there will probably be a new plan.”

Du Lai also added, “Actually population loss is not a concern, the real trouble is the game’s anti-brushing system.”

“Anti-brushing system?” Bai Youwei was slightly surprised. She remembered hearing about it from Tu Dan and his students, but she wasn’t paying attention at the time.

“If everyone clears a game, the game will activate the anti-brushing system and disappear,” Du Lai explained, “It may have moved to another place, or it might cease to exist. No one knows.”

Lun Ang couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t it a good thing if it just disappears?”

“No,” Du Lai retracted his smile, “Once an old one is gone, a new one will come. For a new game to appear, many lives have to be sacrificed… to come up with a strategy.”

With his words, everyone fell into silence.

Through the journey, they had seen enough of good, bad, the deserving and undeserving…

Zhu Shu sighed quietly, murmuring, “Looking on the bright side, it’s already quite good here. At least everyone has a goal, and they’re still alive.”

If stranded outside, there would be nowhere to go and no direction.

Perhaps they would lead a muddled life and then unknowingly fall into a game on some road, dying in confusion.

After a moment of silence, Du Lai did not forget to remind Yan Qingwen, “Can you now consider taking part in the claw machine game?”

He smirked and said, “I have a feeling that our partnership will be invincible.”

“Didn’t you just say it’s not good?” Bai Youwei interjected.

Du Lai was taken aback, “What?”

“The anti-brushing system.” Bai Youwei teased him, “If everyone clears the game, the anti-brushing system will activate. You also said that when an old one is gone, a new one will come, and many lives will have to be sacrificed then. I think… Yan Qingwen, it’s best not to agree, to avoid more sacrifices.”

Du Lai:

Yan Qingwen grinned helplessly, “We can consider cooperating again in the future.”

Du Lai’s smile looked forced and cold. He glanced at everyone and said, “It seems that I’m destined to leave empty-handed today.”

Nobody paid him any mind.

Du Lai finally looked at Bai Youwei one last time before turning around and leaving.

After he had left, Lun Ang asked quizzically, “What happened? Was he trying to pull something over us?”

“He probably genuinely wants to find a partner,” Bai Youwei watched his retreating figure, “But as for that claw machine… it’s likely a 2V2 mode. I wonder which two unfortunate souls will end up being his opponents…”
