"Don't forget, your supplies and materials are still with me," Huang Tang said. "If I die, you'll suffer a loss too!"
The scarred man laughed even harder. "It seems you don't know one of the hidden rules of this survival game."
"If a player kills the homeowner player, the deceased will turn into a treasure chest."
"Kill you, and all your supplies and materials, including mine, will burst out."
Huang Tang's pupils contracted slightly.
Is there such a rule?
No wonder this guy dared to bet everything on him.
The players he encountered these past two days were all killed by zombies and dinosaurs, so he really didn't know about this rule.
Now it seems, this survival game is far bloodier than he imagined!
Once this hidden rule is made public, every time players enter Any Door, they will face not only those unknown monsters but also the hunt from other players!
After all, searching for supplies is nowhere near as fast as snatching them!
"Thank you for telling me."
Huang Tang suddenly smiled.
The scarred man was taken aback.
The next second, Huang Tang had already pulled out a gun, aiming it at his head.
"Bang!"
The scarred man's smile froze on his face, and his body fell straight backward.
A silver chest rolled out of his hand.
Naturally, he couldn't completely trust the scarred man just based on a few words, so he never took out his pistol, just to catch him off guard!
The [Building Survival Game] had just started its third day, and the scarred man wouldn't have thought that he had already gotten hold of a pistol!
"Kill him!"
The two companions with crossbows were both shocked and angry, immediately firing their arrows.
Huang Tang was prepared, pulling out a riot shield from the system space, shielding Cai Lin and Jiang Golan.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The arrows bounced off the shield.
But this delay allowed the Tyrannosaurus Rex to charge forward.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
Huang Tang stomped his foot, shouting at the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex retreated three steps, but as soon as it finished, it lunged again.
Huang Tang could only keep shouting.
But just then, heavy footsteps came from another direction.
Another Tyrannosaurus Rex!
It appeared out of nowhere, charging toward them!
"Damn it!" Huang Tang's expression changed.
His [Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!] could only affect one direction, and now with two Tyrannosaurus Rexes coming from different directions, he couldn't handle it!
The scarred man's two companions saw the situation was bad and turned to run.
But they had only run a few steps when they looked up and saw the new Tyrannosaurus Rex already blocking their way.
"Ah—!!!"
Screams echoed.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex bit them in half, one by one.
Blood sprayed, bodies fell.
Huang Tang didn't have time to look, as the first Tyrannosaurus Rex lunged again.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
He shouted while adjusting his position, trying to keep the two Tyrannosaurus Rexes in the same direction.
But the second Tyrannosaurus Rex, after finishing off the two unlucky ones, was already charging at him.
Cai Lin and Jiang Golan were pale with fear, clinging tightly to each other.
"Huang Tang! Run!" Cai Lin shouted.
Huang Tang's forehead was drenched with sweat.
He looked at the positions of the two Tyrannosaurus Rexes, then at the direction of the lake where they had bathed earlier.
"Cai Lin, you two run towards Any Door! Quick!" he shouted.
"What about you?!" Cai Lin was anxious.
"I have a way to escape! You're holding me back here!"
Cai Lin gritted her teeth, not wanting to burden Huang Tang, and pulled Jiang Golan to run back.
"Huang Tang, you must come back alive!"
Jiang Golan was in tears.
Huang Tang had no time to respond, as the two Tyrannosaurus Rexes lunged simultaneously.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
He shouted at the nearest one, which retreated three steps, but the other had already circled to the side.
Huang Tang took off running, shouting as he went, always keeping the two Tyrannosaurus Rexes behind him in the same direction.
But it was exhausting.
He could only run while adjusting, sprinting towards the lake.
The two Tyrannosaurus Rexes pursued relentlessly, their massive feet pounding the ground, making the entire ground tremble!
Closer.
Even closer.
The lake appeared in view.
Huang Tang took a deep breath, sped up, and dashed to the lakeside.
The two Tyrannosaurus Rexes also caught up, opening their bloody mouths.
Huang Tang shouted at them, "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
Both retreated simultaneously.
Now!
He suddenly turned, charging towards the two Tyrannosaurus Rexes.
As they finished retreating, Huang Tang brushed past them, circling behind.
Then, he stomped hard towards their backsides, shouting, "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
The two Tyrannosaurus Rexes froze, continuing to retreat.
One step, two steps, three steps.
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
The two massive bodies fell into the lake simultaneously!
The lake surface exploded, water splashing everywhere.
The Tyrannosaurus Rexes struggled in the water, but as land dominators, they were immediately hindered in the water.
Just then, a shadow moved from the lake's depths.
A massive Mosasaurus surged from the depths, biting one Tyrannosaurus Rex's neck, dragging it into the deep.
The other tried to crawl ashore in terror, but the Mosasaurus, after finishing the first, charged at the second.
Huang Tang had already turned and ran.
Behind him came terrifying sounds of biting and screams, but he didn't look back.
Only when the lake returned to calm did Huang Tang exhale a long breath.
"This damn game is so damn thrilling!"
If he hadn't taken the [Super Soldier Serum] to enhance his physique, he would have been caught and eaten by the Tyrannosaurus Rex long ago!
Dangerous!
Too dangerous!
Right... how much time until Any Door closes?
Huang Tang opened the system panel:
Seven minutes left!
No time to think, he sprinted towards Any Door...
Inside the Three-story Small Western-style Building, the atmosphere was so tense it could drip water.
Twenty-two women sat together, eyes fixed on the countdown in front of them.
[Time remaining for Any Door: 6 minutes 27 seconds]
No one spoke.
No one had spoken since ten minutes ago.
"Why... why isn't he back yet?" Bai Tao's voice trembled.
No one answered her.
Jiang Jing'an bit her lip, fingers tightly gripping the hem of her clothes, knuckles white.
She had just eaten Huang Tang's... last night.
No, that's not the point.
The point is, if Huang Tang doesn't come back, what will happen to them?
No food, no materials, no combat power, just over twenty women and a house that could be flooded at any moment.
The answer is, they can only wait for death!
"Five minutes left," someone whispered.
Jiang Jing'an stood up, walked to Any Door, and stared intently at the flickering light door.
"Come back..." she murmured, "You all come back..."
Just then, Any Door flashed suddenly.
Two figures tumbled out.
Cai Lin!
Jiang Golan!
The women rushed forward, supporting them.
"Where's Huang Tang?" Jiang Jing'an grabbed her sister's shoulders. "Where's Huang Tang?!"
Jiang Golan's face was pale, tears streaming down. "Sis... we encountered two Tyrannosaurus Rexes... Brother Huang Tang told us to run first, he stayed behind..."
The women's minds went blank.
"Tyrannosaurus Rex?"
"What kind of world is behind Any Door?"
Cai Lin stood up, leaning against the wall, gasping, "It's Jurassic World. Dinosaurs are everywhere."
Everyone's faces changed.
Two Tyrannosaurus Rexes.
Huang Tang alone.
Can he come back alive?
The countdown continued.
3 minutes 20 seconds.
2 minutes 15 seconds.
1 minute 10 seconds.
Any Door began to flicker violently, its edges glowing and dimming, as if about to disappear at any moment.
Jiang Jing'an rushed to the door, wanting to go in, but Cai Lin grabbed her.
"What are you doing?!"
"I'm going to find him!"
"There's no time! And what can you do if you go in? Get yourself killed?!"
Jiang Jing'an cried, "Then what do we do? Is he just going to die? What about us?!"
54 seconds.
43 seconds.
36 seconds.
21 seconds.
10, 9, 8...
Almost at the last moment, a figure tumbled out of Any Door.
Covered in blood, he fell directly to the ground.
