Doomsday Roulette

“Thank you to my brother ‘What Name Should I Change’ for the five thousand donation again, and thank you to book friend 20170419141609929 for the two thousand donation, as well as other brothers who have donated, including those who supported me on QQ Reading and other platforms.”

When this five-person tracking team first lost track of Ye Zhongming, every face was serious.

Previously, Hawkins's words still echoed in their ears.

He said that this person, who had temporarily lost an arm, was not just trying to escape but was aiming to kill them.

Everyone believed it, as various signs indicated that this person had the ability to leave quickly in a short time, yet still leisurely toyed with them.

Half an hour ago, the obvious traces he left behind had disappeared.

The five of them cautiously searched around, unsure of which direction to go.

“We can choose a direction to continue the chase, and if we still don't find him after a while…”

Wade’s words were cut off by Amus.

“Stop looking? Have you forgotten that your brother was killed by him a few hours ago?”

Wade’s face turned red to his neck at her words.

He definitely wanted revenge; Hofu Kafu could be said to have cared for him since childhood, transforming him into a nine-star evolver. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were like brothers and fathers to each other.

Hofu Kafu’s death meant too much to Wade. It was not just the loss of a family member but also a comrade, a mentor, and a subordinate.

He wished he could cut off Ye Zhongming's head and slowly crush it piece by piece!

But he was very clear about the current situation.

This was the new rookie battlefield of the All Races of the Universe, not their Earth where they could run rampant. Ultimately, this was a process of self-improvement.

If they succeeded, maybe they would truly have a foothold amongst the All Races of the Universe. But if they failed, that would mean death.

In that case, it would be better to honestly remain an eight-star evolver on Earth.

“Amus.” Wade suppressed his anger and tried to speak in a calmer tone, “What I mean is to choose a direction to continue the chase. If we catch up to him, we will take him down. Hofu Kafu’s status in my heart is not less than that of your child! I’ve been with him since he was born, until today!”

Amus shrugged and said nothing further.

“Believe me, like you, I want nothing more than to take down that King of Cloud Summit. But!”

“You and I both know what this place is and what our ultimate goal is, right?” Wade said, getting a bit excited, his hands gesturing.

“If we can’t find Ye Zhongming, we should hunt prey, earn points, and raise our ranking from the bottom, maintaining that situation to gain more points, and then exchange them for what we need in the camp, ultimately becoming top contenders on the leaderboard!”

“Instead of aimlessly chasing like we are now, wasting everyone’s time.”

Hawkins’s expression darkened; he felt his wife was being offended.

“Hawkins, perhaps I was a bit direct in saying this, but I have ample reason to justify what I said. In fact, the reality is even more severe than I described.”

Wade was also determined; he pointed to his eyes and said, “According to the data recorder, our ranking is within the bottom five hundred. In front of us, there are nearly twenty thousand people! Three days to go, and those at the bottom will be eliminated! No one knows how many will be eliminated; it could just be the last person, but based on the numbers, that’s clearly impossible. Maybe ten? A hundred? Or five hundred? Or maybe one percent or two percent of the remaining numbers?”

“Hawkins couple, I know your strength is formidable, but what if we continue chasing and can’t catch him in three days? Will we be eliminated at the bottom? Good, even if we’re lucky and catch up, our ranking will surely continue to drop, possibly reaching the last few spots. Will we have enough time left to escape the elimination zone?!”
