I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today-Chapter 583 - : The Preliminary Competition Begins
Chapter 583: Chapter 583: The Preliminary Competition Begins
Shen Mo said indifferently, “It’s not hard to understand. If the King loses, he can continue the game as a subject. But if a subject loses, he becomes a commoner, losing the right to play the game. In other words, those who apply for the position of King have an additional way out.”
King loses – becomes a subject – continues the game.
Subject loses – becomes a commoner – leaves the game.
“But the King will die in the official labyrinth war.” Pan Xiaoxin, though young, was very cautious, he frowned, “Even if the subjects lose in the war, they only lose a puzzle piece. Whichever way you look at it, choosing to be a subject seems safer, right?”
The King has a chance to surrender.” Shen Mo said, “Most of the people here are solo players, or duos, very few are teams of three or more. These players lack the conditions to compete for king. For them, surrendering to anyone is the same.”
Tan Xiao hesitated, “Then… should we apply to be the king too?”
Bai Youwei’s mouth twitched, “In case the two of you win and become kings, I’ll have to worry about whether you’ll surrender in the official game.”
Pan Xiaoxin grabbed Tan Xiao’s arm and said seriously, “Brother Xiao, if we become the King, it’ll be very troublesome. If we lose, we will die. If we surrender, we will become subjects to others, and the hope of winning… isn’t too high.”
Tan Xiao scratched his head, “Then let us choose to be subjects…”
Bai Youwei turned to Shen Mo and handed him some puzzle pieces, “Do the subjects you just recruited need these?”
She remembered that two of the recruits were Shen Mo’s former subordinates, they have a close relationship, and it wouldn’t hurt to pay a little more attention to them.
Shen Mo reached out and pulled out a piece from them and put it into his pocket, “I’ll keep a puzzle piece. If they pass the preselection game, I can still give them puzzle pieces later.”
Bai Youwei pondered and then nodded slightly, “That’s okay, by then we can give each of them a piece, plus their own puzzles, to ensure they don’t become commoners in the game even if they lose.”
Since they are being recruited, of course they need some benefits.
Giving them puzzle pieces is just the first step, if they want these players to be loyal in the game, they will probably have to distribute props to the subjects in the later stages of the battle game.
Shen Mo asked her, “Do you have anything else for me?”
Bai Youwei was slightly stunned.
He doesn’t need puzzle pieces, he has enough props, so what hasn’t she given him yet?
She lowered her head and rummaged through her own bag– A dart gun, flower seeds, friend invitation card, Snowflake, hairpin, Miss Liu’s perfume…
The more she rummaged, the more disgusted she became.
Over this long period of time, she had unwittingly accumulated so much “junk”.
Bai Youwei’s face turned a bit unpleasant.
A shadow fell in front of her, Shen Mo leaning over, his hand on the arm of his wheelchair. He stared into her eyes, silent for a moment, then gently kissed her lips and said in a low voice:
“Be careful in the game.”
Bai Youwei: “…”
Her face slowly turned red…
“You…you too, be careful…” She stuttered in reply, her face turning even redder.
Damn it, why was she stammering? So annoying!
Shen Mo smiled, kissed her again, then squeezed her little hand, “Let’s go.”
From a distance, people watched the two of them approach, casting sidelong glances, but it was only a few quick looks before their attention was redirected.
At this moment, everyone was more interested in the upcoming game.
The Crown halo was filled with players, and in contrast, the crowd under the Sword halo appeared pathetically few.
The Rabbit-headed Inspector announced calmly:
“A total of 241 players,
5 people forfeit,
197 people applied for King,
39 people applied for subject.
So, the preselection game… begins.”
