DESTINY GAMES-Chapter 313: Strong Competitors.
The crow warned them sternly, "If no one impresses me, then no one will get the title. So do your best. Fight as if your life is on the line because it is."
As the crow was cycling around in the air and speaking, the silver woman on her shoulder was still eating without a care in the world.
The black crow continued, "I hope you have made yourself familiar with the rules. If not, here it is. Look it over while I introduce you to my lovely audience."
A screen appeared in front of them. It showed the rules of the game.
Destiny Game 30
- Title: Obstacle Course.
- Objective: Be among the top 20 players in terms of game points.
-Description: 100 participants will be dropped onto a track with dangerous obstacles blocking their way. The participants will need to either bypass the obstacles or destroy them to proceed.
- Rule 1: The game will start after the moderator gives the go-ahead.
- Rule 2: The obstacle course is endless, but the game will end after one hour.
- Rule 3: Only the best-performing 20 will pass the game. These 20 will be determined through the product of their game points and the number of obstacles that they overcome.
- Rule 4: Every participant will be limited to their track and won’t be able to leave their track or enter another competitor’s track.
- Rule 5: Participants can interfere with the obstacle course of others by strengthening the obstacles with points they earn during the game.
- Rule 6: Points can be earned either by passing obstacles or destroying them. Passing obstacles will award a third of the points, while destroying obstacles will award the full available points.
- Rule 7: Sacrificing points to strengthen the obstacles of others will increase the reward they earn from overcoming obstacles. But if the participant whose obstacle course you strengthened is eliminated, you will earn their game points instead.
- Rule 8: Game weapons and artifacts can be used in this game.
After the appearance of this panel, the competitors became able to move. They still couldn’t use their abilities, and they couldn’t hurt others, but they could move around and chat with each other.
While they were going over the rules or inspecting each other, the crow was introducing them one by one to the audience.
The large screens above them and the individual screens held by the audience were showing the highlights of their previous games. This brought the audience up to speed on the information of all the competitors.
Every competitor was looking at each other warily. But there were a few that other competitors were looking at mostly.
One of them was Augustus. He is the only one who has returned from the foreign battlefield in this game.
If that isn’t enough, there is also the fact that they know the least about him. They don’t know what level of power he has reached recently or how much he has developed his ability with game points.
There are too many unknowns about him, which makes him draw a lot of attention. Plus, they have seen his play style. He is a dangerous competitor who always goes after others.
So even though he just stood there on the platform doing nothing and with a smile on his face, no one was fooled. Everyone was wary of him.
The second competitor the others were wary of is Handsome Batchelor.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is frёeωebɳovel.com.
Handsome Bachelor is a male super with a psychic class ability that helps him to charm others. His ability is a mental ability that can charm both male and female supers.
Anyone can fall into his hands. As shown on his highlights, his game style is to charm others and make them fight for him. He can also use his charm to lower or remove the enmity of others towards him.
This playstyle has helped him pass through the professional league all the way to the advancement game with less than five losses in the 19 games he has played.
This is his first time trying the advancement game, so he is a rising star. Many people have great hopes for him.
He is a dangerous competitor with a power that is at the C rank. So many of the competitors are wary of him.
The third person the competitors are wary of is the Butcher.
The butcher is a female super with a powerful psychic that can bypass physical defense to attack internal organs directly. All she needs to kill someone is to touch them.
She can touch others with a weapon. Once she touches someone, their muscles and organs will be diced up as if they had been butchered.
This is her second attempt at the advancement game to the expert league. She has used this time to push her power to the B rank, so she is very powerful.
The fourth person is Evil Eye. Evil Eye is a female super with an omega ability.
Her omega ability is called Eye of Destruction. She can attack anything once she looks at it. Both physical and mental defenses are not safe from her attack.
Her attack can be dodged and blocked, but once she locks her eyes on a target, she will always be able to attack them.
She is also a rising star, and because she is a hero, she has acquired a power that is at the B rank.
This is her first attempt at the advancement game, but she has the same amount of power as that of the butcher. It is because she is very popular.
It is not only her fans that think she will pass this game. Most of the competitors also have great hopes for her, if only because she is the only one they know who has an omega ability.
The fifth target of public attention is Mecha Man. He is a super with a weapon class ability.
His ability allows him to bring powerful weapons into the game. He can literally summon different weapons over to him when he needs them.
His ability is versatile and powerful. He has used this ability to win all 19 games of the professional league.
Winning all 19 games is something that even Evil Eye couldn’t do. Not only that, he also won the title of MVP many times.
This is his first time attempting the advancement game, but no one will be surprised if he comes out on top with the highest score. He is just that formidable.
There are other strong men and women that others were wary of. Of the 76 of them, the weakest has D rank power. The best have B rank.
C rank power is common in the professional league. It is easy to accumulate that kind of power after 19 games. Only exceptional individuals manage to acquire B-rank.
Some of the competitors got together to chat. But most of them just stood there and watched each other or kept to themselves.
It is because they don’t have the incentive to interact with each other. Because everyone will be restricted to their track and their position to each other will be random, there is no use forming alliances.
In this type of game, people like the Baron can still throw their weight around, but there is no use for someone to come over to him to warn him off.
There was no need, but people still came over to berate him. He is a villain and a public enemy, so accusing and cursing him in view of everyone will earn them points with most people.
But there was a slight problem in their plans. He looked exactly like another competitor, so they couldn’t tell him apart from the other one.
The other competitor had to shout to prove his innocence. He kept saying that he was the real one, but he didn’t say anything to refute that claim, but he didn’t look like another competitor to hide from people trying to defame him in public.
He had chosen to look like another competitor because he couldn’t use his real face. The competitor he had chosen was at random.
There was not much scheming behind his decision because he is sure that others will be able to identify him on the open track as soon as he uses his ability.
Since he didn’t think he had done anything wrong and didn’t care at all about the things people wanted to say to him, he didn’t bother to deny the claims that he was the imposter.
There was no one like the Baron asking people to bow to them, so he didn’t think he had anything to care about, whatever anyone had to say. He just stood his ground regardless of what they said.
Some people came over to convince him to become more lenient and have pity on others because of how deadly this game is. Some came to recruit him and wanted to get his contact information.
No matter how many people came or whatever they said, his face remained impassive. Instead, he looked at the people who didn’t come over to berate him.
