The world’s first online VR survival game has finally been released. In order to promote the game, the company is holding the first “Infinite Survival Competition”.
As a passionate survival e...
At 5:00 p.m., the announcement sounded on time, "Day 2 of the competition, 34 people were eliminated, 466 contestants remain, and there are currently 0 winners."
On the second day, the number of players who couldn't hold on increased significantly.
Su Han thought, Zhong Rui could win by just playing one round, but he didn't rush to do so? In an instant, many thoughts flashed through her mind.
But in the end, she shook her head, ate her meal, and went back to her room. She wasn't out of danger yet, so why would she care about other people's lives? She didn't have the time for that.
On the third day, the battle became more intense.
In the morning, after Su Han had her meal, she came to the second floor early to start a new day's work. But when she arrived, more than 20 people were already playing in the casino. Their eyes were red and their hair was messy, as if they had been playing all night.
"It's settled!" the dealer yelled, then flipped the dice and announced the result, "2, 2, 2, surround two, big or small, win!"
Immediately, some were happy and some were sad.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha." A man hit the target and was laughing wildly. He couldn't control his facial expression at all and seemed to be in extreme ecstasy.
Some people also showed disappointment on their faces, and were so depressed that they wanted to kick anyone they saw.
What's worse, his face was gray and black, and he looked like a bankrupt.
Su Han sighed lightly. The winner is in heaven and the loser goes to hell. This is gambling.
"Can you lend me some money?" The bankrupt elder brother asked humbly, "I will pay you back as soon as I make a comeback."
"Go away." The player who bet on the second wave waved his hands impatiently, as if to shoo away a fly. "I still think my capital is not enough, how can I lend you the extra money? Besides, I will definitely pay you back after I lend it to you. What can you guarantee?"
The bankrupt elder brother was speechless.
"Let's keep going while we're lucky." As soon as the words were spoken, the player who had just won the jackpot placed his chips on the Six, hoping that good luck would come again.
The player who asked to borrow money said nothing, but a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.
Su Han stood nearby and saw it clearly. Unconsciously, she sighed softly.
For players with abundant funds, although the current situation is good, no one can guarantee that they can pass the test, so the more chips they have, the better. If they lend their chips, they may never get them back, so normal people are not happy about it.
For the bankrupt players, the chips meant another chance. The other party clearly had millions of dollars in funds, but he was unwilling to lend even a few tens of thousands of dollars. He was really stingy to the extreme. As for the possibility that if the other party was willing to lend, dozens or even hundreds of players might suddenly appear to borrow money from him, he did not consider this.
The two sides stood on their own positions and secretly formed a grudge against each other.
But what if there is a grudge between them? Su Hanxin said that today is the inventory day, and players who are in debt and have not met their targets will be eliminated. In addition, violence is strictly prohibited in the casino. Even if he is unwilling, he can't take action to vent his anger.
Just as she was thinking this, she saw the bankrupt guy pull out high explosives and then hug the target tightly, preventing him from moving.
Su Han's face suddenly changed, and without thinking, he turned around and ran.
A few seconds later, the high-energy explosives exploded! Several people disappeared in the center of the explosives and the surrounding area in an instant.
Sparks are flying.
Not far away, wooden furniture caught fire and burned rapidly.
Only then did the waiters, security guards, and dealers wake up from their dreams and rush into action, putting out fires and maintaining order.
Su Han glanced at his remaining 63% of his physical strength and wondered in his heart, how much high-energy explosives did this guy use? Why is it so powerful?
You know, she was wearing a protective vest! And her upper limit of physical strength was extremely high, but who knew that her physical strength would drop by 37%.
Looking around, she found that seven or eight innocent players were implicated and turned into white light. Another fourteen or fifteen people were still in shock, standing aside with low health, almost trembling.
After this incident, the players on the scene realized that even if there were security guards to maintain order, it would be useless. If the players had enough explosives, they would be able to take away the target of hatred in front of the NPCs.
After thinking it over, the players' pupils constricted, and they all showed surprise and doubt, and then quickly dispersed.
The man in black who seemed to be the manager hurried over. After finding out the situation, he announced in a deep voice, "Please leave the second floor first. After the cleaning, the casino on the second floor will be reopened. The specific time will be notified through the radio."
Su Han didn't want to stay on the second floor any longer. Hearing this, she quickly turned around and left.

In the buffet restaurant on the third floor, Zhong Rui was enjoying a sumptuous breakfast.
Su Han could easily spot her friend with just a glance in the crowd. After finding him, she walked over quickly and told Zhong Rui about the accident on the second floor.
"Self-destruction?" Zhong Rui frowned.
"Be careful." Su Han warned seriously, "Even in a gambling copy, accidents may happen."
Zhong Rui showed a distressed look, "But I don't want to lend the funds, so I have to refuse."
"Unless... we never meet at all." Su Han dragged out the words, hinting at something.
The two exchanged glances and instantly understood each other's meaning - on the day of the inventory, they stayed in their room, and no one else could come in, so they naturally couldn't ask for money. If no one was lending money, there was no need to refuse, and it would not attract hatred.
"How's the progress?" Zhong Rui asked.
"135 chips, total bet amount is 5 million." Su Han picked up a meat bun and started to eat it. "Hurry back to the house and rest. Take a nap, and get up after 5pm."
"Yeah, I think so too." Zhong Rui replied.
After the discussion, the two left quietly and stayed in their respective rooms.

No precious jade was obtained.
Fu Hongyu was disheartened. In her opinion, this was no different from being eliminated.
In the casino, there are always players who lose all their chips and suddenly attack, trying to drag more people into the game before they are eliminated.
Fu Hongyu just walked past, too lazy to take another look - if he lost, he lost, there was no need to ruin his character.
Having been confirmed out, she became single. She walked into the buffet restaurant on the third floor and had a hearty meal, just to practice for herself.

At 5:00 p.m., the broadcasting voice announced, "Day 3 of the competition, 362 people were eliminated, 138 contestants remain, and there are currently 0 winners."
Su Han thought to herself that the battle was indeed very brutal. While she was in the room, she kept hearing faint noises coming from outside the door, as if the battle had never stopped.
However, at this moment, the system mechanical voice that had not sounded for a long time suddenly prompted, "G78 Gambling Villa (the server where the player is located) has 428 players and 470 NPCs left."
Su Han was stunned. What was going on? Why was the system's mechanical voice different from the broadcast? It was said that there were 138 contestants left? How could there be 428 players left?
At this time, the broadcasting voice announced again, "There will be entertainment activities specially prepared for the contestants from 8 to 9 p.m. Please actively participate and gather at the casino on the first floor before 8 p.m."
"Repeat the report, 8-9 p.m...."
Su Han had a wooden face, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, vaguely realizing that things were getting out of control.
Walking to the cafeteria on the third floor, the survivors did not show any joy of survival on their faces, and many of them had been confused by the system.
Zhong Rui's face was particularly solemn, "I just feel something is wrong." If it's just gambling, it's too easy! Which survival game copy is easier to pass?
Su Han was upset and sat down opposite his friend. "I thought about it again and again, and finally realized what was wrong. From the beginning of the game, we were deceived by the system and the casino's word game."
"That's right." Zhong Rui sighed deeply, his face indescribably heavy. "I should have realized earlier that the elimination mentioned by the system and the elimination mentioned by the casino are completely different!"
"The system stipulates that after surviving for 10 days, the player has met the clearance requirements and can ask the system to leave the dungeon at any time. If the player survives for less than 10 days and the physical strength value reaches zero, the player will lose the qualification to compete."
"The casino said that everyone is welcome to participate in the villa gambling game. Those who leave without permission, those who have debts on the day of the inventory, and those who use force to coerce violations will be eliminated. This elimination refers to being eliminated from the gambling game."
"Everyone subconsciously thought that after being eliminated from the gambling game, the eliminated players would be taken away and killed by the casino staff. But now it seems that this is not the case. The eliminated players were taken to play other games, and as long as their physical strength did not reach zero, they were still alive."
"So there are 138 remaining contestants, but there are 428 surviving players! The remaining 290 players are the players who lost the gambling competition and were taken to play other games!"
"Yeah, it was a mistake." Su Han held his forehead and sighed, with a look of annoyance on his face. "Because the rules prohibit leaving the villa, and there are contestants on each of the four floors of the villa, the players who lost the gambling game were taken away and never appeared again, so I subconsciously thought that they were indeed out. But now think about it, there are no buildings above the fourth floor, isn't there still underground?"
The two of them became angrier and angrier as they talked, and they were so upset that they couldn't eat.
Zhong Rui said sullenly, "I guess the entertainment activities specially prepared by the casino for the contestants will definitely be a 'surprise'."
"Hehe." Su Han laughed dryly twice, then turned cold and refused to discuss this topic further.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the remaining 138 contestants gathered on the first floor.
The man in black showed up on time. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work in gambling for three days. The casino has prepared some entertainment activities for you. Please follow me."
After saying that, he walked in front and led the way.
The group walked slowly, but saw the man in black pressed on a wall, then took out a key to unlock it. Soon, the stairs leading to the underground were revealed.
Su Han was in a bad mood and wanted to curse. Who could have guessed that there was a basement below the villa? !
"This way." The man in black continued to lead the way.
The underground floor is brightly lit, as bright as day.
Su Han was surprised to find that there was an octagonal cage specially used for fighting in the middle, and dining tables, food and chairs were placed around it.
"Welcome to the underground arena." The man in black turned around and grinned at everyone.
