Chapter 25: The Second Round of the Game Begins; the Japanese Chicken Becomes Cannon Fodder for Yunxia
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked by the system's extremely cruel "law of the jungle".
What is this?
This strips away all of Japan's dignity, blood, and even soul.
Then they forcibly pressed their heads down and made them become slaves to Yunxia, whom they had once most wanted to kill!
Eighty percent of resources are forcibly handed over! Even our lives belong to Yunxia!
This is worse than being a dog; it's just pure batteries and slag!
"No—this is impossible! This is not fair!"
As Inukai Ichiro looked at the terms on the screen, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He would rather be a dog for the Starsea Federation than a slave to Yunxia!
Because they have done too many disgusting things to Yunxia in history and in the game.
Falling into Yunxia's hands would be worse than death!
"Protest! We protest! This system is targeting us!"
Netizens on Kuroshio Island let out desperate and frantic cries in the public channel.
[Ding! Protest invalid. The weak have no right to bargain.]
[Sixty seconds left. If no supplementary application is submitted, Kuroshio Island will be deemed to have abandoned its survival efforts.]
On the sky, a blood-red countdown began its relentless ticking. 60, 59, 58 —
Every second that beats feels like a countdown to the end of this island nation's life.
Looking out the window at the volcano crater that had begun to erupt toxic gases.
They watched as the Star Sea Federation, whose communications were quickly cut off due to system rejection, avoided them like the plague.
Inukai Ichiro's psychological defenses completely collapsed.
He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to watch the entire tectonic plate sink to the bottom of the sea.
With only ten seconds left in the countdown, and under the gaze of billions of eyes worldwide.
The supreme leader of Kuroshio Island knelt heavily on the ground with a thud in front of cameras broadcasting globally.
He faced east towards Yunxia, his hands pressed tightly to the ground, his forehead bleeding profusely from the impact.
"Yunxia—the great Yunxia suzerain state!"
Inukai Ichiro, tears streaming down his face, his voice hoarse like a duck with a broken neck, cried out: "Please—take us in! The entire population of Kuroshio Island, one hundred million, is willing to sign an absolute subjugation and enslavement treaty!"
We are willing to give up 80% of our resources!
We're willing to go deep-sea mud digging and act as bait for the adults in Yunxia during the second phase!
"Dad! Yunxia's biological father!! Please spare your son's life!"
Boom! With this globally resounding cry of "Daddy!", the entire international internet exploded!
[Westland Netizen]:
God, what did I just see?
The leader of a nation actually knelt down and called someone else his father on a live global broadcast!
[Xinghai Netizen]:
This is so tragic. Is this what happens to the weak? Earth Online is too cruel!
Meanwhile, in Yunxia, it was just like Chinese New Year, with firecrackers, cheers, and whistles almost lifting the ceiling off the roof!
In the lecture hall of Jiang University, students watched Inukai Ichiro frantically kowtowing on the screen and laughed until tears streamed down their faces.
"Hahaha! What goes around comes around, and no one escapes the wrath of Heaven!"
Didn't they block our spring a few days ago? Didn't they even send female agents to our school to pimp?
Keep going, keep going!
"Call me 'Dad'?"
"Sorry, we in Yunxia don't have such disgusting big-headed sons as you!"
Inside the highest-level bulletproof conference room in the Shanghai Armory.
Professor Lin and the military commander looked at the "Kuroshio Island Subordinate Slavery Treaty" sent by the system on the sky screen.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing an extremely cold mockery in each other's eyes.
"Sir, should we sign this document or not?"
Professor Lin pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"Sign! Why won't you sign?"
The commander sneered, and with a flourish of his pen, pressed the highest authority seal representing the Yunxia Region onto the unequal enslavement treaty.
"Free miners and scouts delivered to our doorstep, might as well take advantage of it."
The commander looked at Inukai Ichiro in the camera lens, his tone chilling.
"However, they are not worthy to be our sons."
Tell these Japanese chickens that once the second phase begins, all the poison insect players must go explore the most dangerous deep-sea trench!
'
"Anyone who dares to retreat even half a step, or who digs up even a fraction less evolution points, will be immediately subjected to high-dimensional annihilation by Yunxia's supervisory team!"
at the same time.
Inside the luxurious safe house at the deepest part of the school.
Lei Dong had just finished a very refreshing hot shower and was wearing a loose bathrobe.
He was lying on the sofa, enjoying the peeled grapes that Su Qinghan fed him.
He watched the Prime Minister of Kuroshio Island on the television screen, who was weeping and kowtowing to the world in front of everyone, and couldn't help but click his tongue twice.
"What a spineless bunch. I thought they'd stand up for themselves and choose to die for the cause, but this is it?"
Lei Dong swallowed the sweet grape, put his arm around Su Qinghan's slender waist, and curled a playful sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"But this is also good, the second phase of the sand table is said to have a huge terrain."
I was just wondering where I was going to find so many snacks to fill the gaps between my teeth, given my height of over 100 meters.
Paid leave in the real world is always short-lived.
They enjoyed less than three days of shameless, intimate time together in a luxurious safe house in Shanghai.
The black sky hanging above the heads of people all over the world then burst forth with a blinding red light once again.
"Buzz!"
After three days of silence, the mechanical voice, carrying an irresistible high-dimensional pressure, once again exploded in the minds of billions of people.
[Ding! Server-wide mandatory announcement!]
The first phase of Earth Online's maintenance period has ended!
The second phase of the evolution sandbox (Silurian Period - Abyss Awakening) is about to begin!
[Forcibly extracting the consciousness of all players in all regions — 3, 2, 1! Teleportation initiation!]
Lei Dong was sitting on the sofa peeling an apple for Su Qinghan when he suddenly felt a flash of bright blue light before his eyes.
The familiar feeling of weightlessness instantly enveloped my entire body.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an extremely vast, futuristic, high-dimensional white hall.
This is the "Astral Preparation Hall" before the start of Phase Two.
The hall was enormous, stretching as far as the eye could see.
At this moment, tens of thousands of players from the Yunxia region have all gathered.
Unlike the initial anxiety they felt when they first entered the game, the Yunxia players were now standing tall and full of energy.
With the huge amount of over one million points accumulated in the previous stage, the Yunxia military redeemed initial "gene enhancement packs" for all surviving players during the rest period.
Although everyone is still standing in the hall in the form of human consciousness, there is a faint glow of genetic energy representing power flowing across each person's body.
However, what was most striking in this magnificent preparation hall was not the high spirits of the Yunxia players.
Instead, it was on the other side of the hall, in a "special area" that was tightly separated by a red high-dimensional energy light curtain.
"Look over there! Holy crap, isn't that Japan?"
"Hahaha, it really is them! These bastards were actually packaged up and sent directly to our lobby by the system!"
Lei Dong followed the gaze of the crowd and couldn't help but curl a playful, cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
On the other side of the red light screen, tens of millions of players from Black Tide Island were densely packed together.
It seems they've brought all the eligible young men from their side over?
Compared to the neat and solemn atmosphere of Yunxia, that place looked like a refugee camp.
There was no civilization crystal representing the main camp, and no command platform for high-dimensional observers.
Even their clothes were forcibly replaced by the system with drab prison uniforms!
Above the head of every Black Tide Island player, a strikingly glaring blood-red character floats—【Slave】!
[Ding! The current lobby is: Yunxia Region (Main) & Kurotsho Island Region (Servant).]
[Rule Tip: The Black Tide Island region has lost its independent stronghold and resurrection crystal.]
In the second phase, all participants on Kuroshio Island will be added to the sandbox as consumables for the Yunxia region!
Hearing the system notification, the players on Black Tide Island on the other side of the screen turned ashen-faced, with feelings of humiliation, fear, and despair spreading wildly among them.
Just then, on the suspended platform in the center of the hall, the figures of the Yunxia military commander-in-chief and Professor Lin slowly appeared.
The commander looked down at the millions of Black Tide Island players above the light screen, his eyes cold and devoid of any pity.
"Listen up, you stray dogs of Kuroshio Island!"
The commander's voice, amplified through the hall's loudspeaker system, pounded on the eardrums of every Japanese player like rolling thunder: "Because you signed the subsidiary slavery treaty, in the second phase, your lives are under the control of Yunxia!"
80% of all points and evolution points you gain in the sandbox will be forcibly submitted to our main crystal!
"Since you are slaves, you must be prepared to be slaves. We in Yunxia do not support useless freeloaders. Now, I announce the deployment rules for the second phase!"
The entire hall fell silent instantly. All the Black Tide Island players trembled and pricked up their ears, awaiting their fate.
"Rule #1! All male players on Black Tide Island!"
The commander's finger suddenly pointed at the group of men on the other side of the light screen, who looked as if they had lost their parents.
"All of them will be assigned to the advance suicide squad!"
Once you enter the sandbox, your spawn point will be forcibly locked to the edge of the most dangerous abyssal trenches, active volcanoes, and giant predator lairs!
You have only one task:
Use your lives to explore the map, step on traps, and lure away high-level bosses!
Anyone who dares to slack off will have their collar self-destruct program activated by the Yunxia Supervision Team, resulting in their brain death in the real world as well!
Boom! These words immediately caused an uproar among the male players on Black Tide Island.
"Protest! This is sending us to our deaths!"
"Baka! Why were we thrown into the predator's lair as bait?! We're players too!"
Several radical male players from Black Tide Island, their eyes red, tried to break through the red light barrier.
"Bang! Bang!"
Without the Yunxia people lifting a finger, several high-dimensional lasers instantly descended from the dome of the hall.
Those troublemakers were vaporized on the spot, leaving not even ashes.
Does anyone else have any objections?
