Doomsday Wonderland - Chapter 416

Chapter 416: Game Start

…It felt like she was in an eternal, fragmented nightmare.

The silhouette of the fat man and Ren Nan phased in and out uncontrollably in her mind. The face of Ji Shanqing slowly turned into a face that she was familiar with. The memories, sensation, emotions of when she first time stepped into the apocalypse world broke free from the shackles, becoming more apparent and more vivid in her brain and arousing something residing within her body.

Voices rushed away like a tidal wave from her brain, and she felt serene. The world was slowly connecting together like montages of a movie. All of them turned lucid, no longer the meaningless strange, haphazard footage in her mind.

When she once again lifted her eyes, the fat man had turned his head in her direction. Holding a pocket knife in his hand, he looked stupid.

Lin Sanjiu’s gaze didn’t stop long enough on his body as she swept her glance over to Ji Shanqing, who lay lifeless on the ground. Right now, the grand prize looked more like a doll than a human. His eyes were glassy and vacant. It was hard to believe that he was a lively human a few seconds ago.

“Look, I pounced on you like this that time, trying to tear your throat apart,” Ren Nan’s deep voice swam into her ears.

“Yeah, you’re right,” A cold smile formed at the corner of Lin Sanjiu’s lips as she slowly walked toward Ji Shanqing.

The fat man lifted his eyebrows as he deployed his guard. However, when he saw Lin Sanjiu mumbling something, he relaxed.

“Ah, mind your own business you crazy,” the fat man shooed Lin Sanjiu away like she was a dog chasing him. When he saw that Lin Sanjiu paid no heed to his warning and kept walking near to him, he shook his arm in the air and barked impatiently, “Go—”

The thing happened so fast that it looked like a flash of lightning. Before the fat man could utter the word “away,” the world before his eyes inverted. Lin Sanjiu had stretched her arm and grabbed the nape of his neck firmly and flung his hundred-pound body away single-handedly. The fat man flew through the air and connected with the other side of the room with a meaty smack. A loud thump followed after, and the whole building quivered at the impact.

The fat man was dumbfounded. Even after he had finally been able to stretch his legs onto the ground and prop himself up, his mind was still all over the places as he stared vacantly at Lin Sanjiu.

“You… Were you not crazy?” He seemed only can ask this question. “Why, why would you…”

“Let me tell you something you don’t know,” Lin Sanjiu looked at Ji Shanqing before throwing her shirt to him, exposing her black tank top to the air. She walked toward the and her lean muscles glistened in the moonlight. “Before I evolved, I was almost eaten by a man. Perhaps seeing your ugly face has revived those memories, which resulted in more Potential Growth Value has been generated this time.”

The fat man was seemingly unable to understand what Lin Sanjiu saying.

“Hey, that’s not fair. I look much better than him,” A voice echoed at Lin Sanjiu’s ears.

“Oh, shut up, please.” Lin Sanjiu hissed at the illusionary voice created by her mind before walking up to the fat man. She cocked her head slightly to one side, struggling to rummage through her foggy mind about the thing Ji Shanqing had told her what felt like a century ago when it had only been a few minutes, “So, what are you?”

Covered in sweat, the fat man was stunned at Lin Sanjiu’s question. He lowered his chin and a smile tugged at the corner of his eyes.

“Interesting. I never expected you to be this powerful,” in the face of the woman that could fling him across the room single-handedly, he seemed to show no fear at all. As he whipped away the blood stain on his lips, he cackled, “…But, it takes more than that to defeat me—Look at yourself.”

Lin Sanjiu’s frowned at his provocation, but she still looked at her body.

A few seconds ago, she was wearing only a tank top, but now, she was clad in a red uniform. What flustered her the most was that she didn’t know when it appeared on her body. By the time she raised her head again, she realized that the fat man was wearing the same uniform as hers. The only difference was that his was blue.

While she pondered if this was yet again another hallucination created by her mind, the fat man chuckled at her. He waved his hand and sent a rectangular TV screen floating overhead them. The screen glowed.

In the middle of the screen stood an anchorwoman. Seemingly sensing her gaze, the anchorwoman turned over and pointed at Lin Sanjiu while shouting at an exasperating exhilaration tone, “In this corner, we have our poor red party. One of them looks dead while the other… Well, I guess none of us want to know her name anyway.”

“On the other side—Wow, wow, calm down, people. Let’s welcome our special guest, Mr. Fatty with a round of applause!”

The night was quiet. Along the gaze of a few vague faces in the distance, the elated tone of the anchorwoman sounded so out of place.

After she finished introducing the two parties of the game, the anchorwoman unwillingly withdrew her gaze from the fat man, “Will our all-favorite Mr. Fatty be able to defend his championship from our contender? Let’s root for him in the next section of the game: “Go, Go, Color Balls Hunting!”

The way Lin Sanjiu looked back and fro between the TV screen and the fat man had amused the latter. With a proud look, he said, “As long as you entered the variety show, you have to follow the game rule. If you lose, you’ll be punished. I know you won’t believe it but—”

Before he could finish speaking, a shadow whizzed past his eyes, and the woman in red uniform had disappeared. The fat man looked around frantically and found that she had rushed in the twinkling of an eye, standing in the flowerbed far away from him.

“First color ball, found it.” said the tall woman as she tossed the ball in her hand.

Both the anchorwoman in the screen and her all-time favorite champion, the fat man were dumbfounded.

The fat man had ridiculed and entrapped many people and duoluozhong with this ability; he had never met someone like the woman standing before him.

“Oh wow, seems like our red party is getting a little bit edgy,” The anchorwoman laughed a fake laugh after she glanced at the fat man, “She found the color ball used for the demonstration even before I started stating the rules. It doesn’t count as a point, but it’s just as simple as that. There will be different hints about the location of the color balls. The player who finds the most color balls in three minutes wins. A note to notice, this lady from the red party cannot attack nor get near to Mr. Fatty!”

The anchorwoman didn’t say what form the hints would take nor did she mention that the fat man could not attack Lin Sanjiu. Despite that, Lin Sanjiu seemed to be fairly undisturbed as she continued to toy with the ball in her hand. She just couldn’t care less about the erroneous tendency.

However, the fat man face sank.

Though the thing was getting out of his control, he was confident that he could place everything back to its usual track with his ability. Hence, after taking a look at the surrounding he marched toward a direction. The anchorwoman who had been looking at him quickly announced, “Game start, now!”

Lin Sanjiu was not in the least rush to look for color balls. She took her time walked toward the TV screen and stopped a few meters away from it.

“Your world wasn’t even formed yet when I was playing this kind of game,” She raised her head and narrowed her eyes, “Tell your master: If he tries to unwrap my grand prize, I’ll kill him!”
