Su Ye took a deep breath and slowly spoke:

"We previously discovered a staircase, a staircase that not everyone can see."

There was a crow-man at the top of the stairs, and it told me some rules.

He recounted in detail his encounter with the crow people, the four ways to go upstairs, and the news that "80% of people die in each round."

Finally, he concluded:

"The minimum requirement for all of us is ten stars to go upstairs."

But I suggest we definitely get more stars.

Why?

Wu Feng asked.

Su Ye looked at him and said, word by word:

"According to that birdman, the stars are the foundation for our survival."

Let's use an analogy: ten stars are the ticket. But after going upstairs, we still need to reclaim our life, health, and sequence power.

Therefore, each person needs at least four to six stars to exchange for these basic items.

At the same time, we need at least a few more stars as a foundation to deal with the unknown situations on the second level.

He paused, then continued:

There were about a thousand people at the scene.

There are ordinary people and those in a hierarchy.

Let's assume an average of three to four stars per person, which is already an underestimation, since there probably aren't many ordinary people.

Awakened beings start with at least 3 stars, and those at the third tier have as many as 6 stars.

So, these 1,000 people would have a total of 4,000 stars.

"In this round of the game, the next round will only begin when 80% of the players die, meaning only 200 players remain."

"In other words, these four thousand stars will eventually converge on these two hundred people."

He looked around, meeting everyone's eyes:

"Each person averages twenty stars."

"Twenty is the average."

"If we want to survive longer, if we want to maintain our advantage on the second floor, and be among the 40 who survive, we must have more stars than others."

"There must be plenty."

He paused, then uttered the number that shocked everyone:

"In my opinion, each person's average should at least double."

That means you need at least forty stars.

Even fifty or a hundred wouldn't be too many.

After hearing this, everyone was stunned.

None of them expected this.

Yes, there were a thousand people on site, and so many stars. In the end, only two hundred people remained before the round ended, and then they could move up to the second level.

Then those stars will definitely belong to these two hundred people.

If you have fewer stars than others, you will definitely be at a disadvantage in the second level.

Su Ye paused, then added:

"There's one more thing."

Several people looked at him.

"The host said that the game time would be ten hours."

What if the number of people hasn't dropped to two hundred by the end of the ten hours? He didn't say.

But one thing is certain: even if you use up all fifteen cards normally, and you're lucky enough to win more than you lose, you'll still have five to ten stars left in your hand. In that case, you can go upstairs according to rule two.

However, those who go up this way are inherently weaker than those who pay ten stars for a ticket.

He pointed to himself:

"Like me, if I spend ten stars to go upstairs now, I'm in mode one, and once I'm in, I'll definitely get some kind of privileges."

If you run out of cards and go up with a few stars, it's mode two, which is the most common situation.

In that case, with different levels of authority, the treatment will definitely be different as well.

"The crow people made it clear that having more stars is the only chance of survival."

Only a few stars are not enough.

After listening, the group fell silent.

Old Zhao was the first to break the silence, his voice low but carrying a hint of ruthlessness as he spoke:

Nothing is more important than survival.

I only have one star, not even a ticket.

Playing chess? Chess my ass.

It's either take it or die.

I choose to rob.

Wu Feng nodded without saying a word, but his eyes said it all.

Wang Kui nodded in agreement.

"I'm going too."

Chen Shou remained silent for a few seconds before looking at Lin Wei and Li Xiaowei.

Lin Wei smiled bitterly:

"I have five now, and I'm still halfway to ten."

After all the cards are played, is the only option left to go up in mode two and become a mere supporting character?

Why not give it a shot?

Li Xiaowei whispered:

"I...I'll go too."

Nine stars seem like a lot, but Su Ye is right, I want to save up more.

Chen Shou took a deep breath and nodded:

"Let's do it."

"but……"

Lin Wei frowned.

"What do we do?"

Su Ye suddenly spoke:

"I'll act alone."

Everyone was stunned.

Chen Shou immediately frowned:

"no.

It's too dangerous for you to go alone. Everyone here is just an ordinary person. Even if you're good at fighting, you can't fight against so many people.

Lin Wei also said:

"Su Ye, although you have fourteen stars, you are now just like us, without the power of sequence, and your physical attributes are about the same."

Going it alone is too disadvantageous.

Su Ye shook his head:

"It's okay, I'll just take a walk around first."

and--"

He paused, then looked at the crowd:

"That crow-man said that going to the second floor in the morning also has its advantages."

I might go to the second floor to check the situation first.

The group exchanged glances.

Wu Feng asked in a deep voice:

"Are you going up alone?"

"right."

Su Ye nodded.

"I'll go up and scout ahead."

Chen Shou wanted to say something, but Su Ye waved his hand:

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

The six of you should work together, don't split up, and keep an eye on lone, wounded, or recently captured hunters.

I'll come down from the second floor when I have the chance, and we'll meet up then.

After a few seconds of silence, the group finally nodded.

Be careful.

Chen Shou patted him on the shoulder.

Su Ye turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

The remaining six people stood there and looked at each other.

Old Zhao's eyes were fierce:

"Let's go find some prey."

···

After separating from his teammates, Su Ye walked slowly along the edge of the hall, his eyes sweeping over the doors and corridors.

Toilets, meeting rooms—anywhere out of public view could be hiding a deadly hunt.

The first target appeared at the entrance to the men's restroom ahead.

A tall, thin man leaned against the wall, seemingly nonchalant, but his eyes kept wandering among the passing crowd.

His positioning was very strategic, allowing him to see both ends of the corridor clearly while also being able to easily push open the door to enter the restroom.

Lookout.

Su Ye continued walking straight towards the restroom without stopping.

"stop."

The tall, thin man reached out to stop him, his tone unfriendly.

"There are people inside."

Su Ye stopped and glanced at him.

The other person's wristband was lit up with "three stars".

There are only three lookouts, so there probably aren't many people inside.

"Get out of the way."

Su Ye said.

The tall, thin man frowned, about to speak and drive him away, but Su Ye had already moved.

His hand gripped the man's neck like an iron clamp. The moment his fingers tightened, the man's eyes widened, his feet left the ground, and he was lifted up by Su Ye with one hand.

"you--"

Before she could finish speaking, Su Ye had already pushed open the bathroom door and carried the man inside.

The door closed behind me.

Inside the restroom, three people were busy around a corpse. Two of them were dragging the body and dumping it into a stall, while one was wiping up the bloodstains on the floor.

Hearing the door open, all three looked up at the same time.

Then they saw this:
