Chapter 254: Urban Survival Battle
"Can we really play like this? We're mortal enemies, who would be willing to listen to our advertisements?"
Local Snake hesitated, fearing he'd be killed by others.
Zhuo Yi Cai laughed and said, "In the Survival Competition, there are no eternal enemies, and I'm not recruiting for nothing. Joining us is like gaining an extra umbrella of protection."
With a smile that was not quite a smile, Chu Ge asked, "An umbrella of protection, what about those Survivors who died before?"
Zhuo Yi Cai immediately glared at him and retorted, "Pah, didn't we just drive him away?"
Mentioning the masked man made him angry.
It was too infuriating!
This was the greatest humiliation he had experienced since taking office!
He swore to catch that masked man.
"Do we get any benefits?" Chu Ge inquired.
Zhuo Yi Cai shot him a look and said, "For every Survivor who learns about us through you and joins us, I'll give you a thousand bucks, how about that?"
A thousand bucks!
Had it been before, Chu Ge would have found the offer quite decent.
But now...
It was nothing but a drizzle!
Morrison was giving him a hundred and fifty thousand US dollars a month!
Local Snake disdainfully said, "That's too cheap, we're risking our lives in the Survival Competition to advertise for you."
Although Nangong liked Zhuo Yi Cai, he also thought he was being too stingy.
Zhuo Yi Cai snorted, "Plus, I'll protect you, how about that? If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me any time. By all accounts, I'm your senior in survival."
Chu Ge waved his hand, "Fine, I'll help you if there's a chance."
Probably there would be no such chance.
Zhuo Yi Cai nodded in satisfaction, chatted with Chu Ge and the others for a while, and then left quickly.
Probably off to find the next advertiser.
Chu Ge patted Nangong, who was still daydreaming, and said teasingly, "Stop staring, for all you know, she's better hung than you."
"Impossible! She's so cute!" Nangong insisted, his eyes filled with every smile and every frown of Zhuo Yi Cai.
The conversation made Chu Ge feel queasy, so he did not bother engaging further.
After finishing breakfast, they one after the other made their way into the Team Cultivation Hall.
Gu Tianjiao, Xiao Hero, Arno, Xiao Poor Thing, General Lie Hao, and Ye Wukong were all waiting, making it quite lively as they discussed what the next Survival Competition would be like.
Chu Ge, Nangong, and Local Snake walked over.
"Boss, the next Survival Competition is likely to be a City Battle. It's already the talk of Survival City," Ye Wukong said to Chu Ge first.
Chu Ge nodded. He leaned over to Gu Tianjiao and asked curiously, "What about a city battle? We're always fighting side by side, it's just a matter of how many enemies we have, no need to make a fuss."
Having experienced so many Survival Competitions, his horizon had broadened, and he wouldn't easily panic.
Gu Tianjiao replied, "The rules for a city battle are special, involving more interests. It is easy to offend other Survival Teams, even leading to real-life disputes."
"In the Survival Arena, city battles of every Star Level are highly watched, almost like a national sports event. There will be enemy kill rankings during the period; the higher the rank, the more the benefits and rewards. Many powerful teams have made their name through city battles, like those top-ranking super Survival Teams."
Local Snake suddenly realized and said, "No wonder that woman wants us to advertise for her, so city battles hold such a high status in the Survival Arena."
"That woman?" asked Gu Tianjiao with confusion.
Just then,
an indifferent female voice suddenly announced:
The next Survival Competition:
City Survival Battle!
1. Randomly select one member within "Suicide" to be the "Heart of the City" of "Suicide."
2. In the City Survival Battle, killing an enemy grants 200 Survival Points, wiping out another Survival Team grants an additional 500 points to all members, and if your team is wiped out, 1000 points will be deducted from all members.
3. The longer the "Heart of the City" of your team survives, the more Survival Points the team will earn as a bonus. Throughout the Survival Competition, the identity of the "Heart of the City" will not be disclosed.
4. If the "Heart of the City" intentionally reveals themselves, Survival Points will be deducted depending on the severity of the act, with a minimum penalty of 1000 points.
5. During the Urban Survival War, a Team Kill Ranking will be available for instant viewing.
6. If you hunt down three Hearts of the City, you can choose to become a Heart of the City yourself, without replacing the original Heart of the City within your team.
7. Surviving until the end of the Urban Survival War is considered clearing the level. If all Hearts of the City are killed, the whole team will be unable to earn Survival Points.
Mission duration: 240 hours.
Mission location: Tokyo.
…
The nine members of the Suicide Group carefully reviewed the rules of the Survival Competition.
They did not want to miss any details.
"The Heart of the City, it's like a ticking time bomb," Ye Wukong remarked.
Once the Heart of the City dies, the whole team's efforts will be in vain.
Chu Ge noticed the sixth rule.
Hunt down three Hearts of the City and you can become one!
Could it be that the identity of the Heart of the City has other special features?
"It seems that there might be a game of strategy among the Hearts of the City toward the end of the Urban Survival War," Gu Tianjiao analyzed.
Although the rules this time are numerous, they are essentially just adding a Heart of the City, which is not much of a change.
All in all, the Urban Survival War is very flexible, and allows for free play.
There won't be a situation where strong players are unable to fight back against weaker ones.
The public release of the Team Kill Ranking greatly stimulated the competitive spirit of the Survivors.
"Tokyo is big, but some of us, once discovered, will definitely be captured by humans," Xiao Hero began.
He looked at Chu Ge and General Lie Hao.
These two were the most likely to be discovered.
And Nangong as well.
Xiao Poor Thing should be the safest.
"The hardest part about city warfare is the dense population. This time, we have to survive ten days—everyone, please prepare yourselves mentally," Chu Ge said earnestly.
He didn't mention the Heart of the City because it was pointless.
Whoever becomes the Heart of the City cannot disclose it, it's better not to ask.
It's best to just let things take their natural course. Discover exclusive tales at empire
Everyone nodded, eager to get started.
With the public Kill Ranking, their desire to show off was almost bursting at the seams.
"I'm going to kill a hundred enemies for the Suicide Group!" Arno declared passionately, his voice full of excitement.
General Lie Hao looked at him with disdain, "You'll only be able to take a beating from a hundred people."
The others also spoke up one after another, setting their own targets.
The atmosphere within the team was great, with no sign of pressure.
Chu Ge continued training. After exchanging for Muscle Ironing, his defensive power ranked second within the Suicide Group.
Second only to Arno.
In terms of attack power, he was the undisputed number one.
Although General Lie Hao had terrifying strength, Xiao Hero possessed a Survival Talent, so the second place in attack power was still undecided.
For the next five days, everyone was busy.
Gu Tianjiao flew directly to Tokyo to prepare for the Urban Survival War.
This idea was thanks to the White Ape King.
It's also unknown whether the Suicide Group will encounter the White Ape King again.
With the White Ape King's capabilities, he had certainly hidden away many more firearms and ammunition.
