Chapter 127

Everyone's eyes made contact with the dazzling light, and they subconsciously squinted.

"Boom!"

When the iron door fully opened, the world outside the prison finally appeared.

Lin Yang's eyes adapted to the light intensity, and he opened a small slit, eager to look.

Just as the corners of his mouth turned up, he was shocked by the scene before him.

"This..."

He saw a ten-meter-high cave come into view.

No sky above, no road ahead.

The only passage was the large hole at the bottom of the cave!

This hole was like a heaven pit, bottomless at a glance.

The brightly lit scene reflected the luxurious residences on each floor, and even the air was filled with a hint of sweetness.

The elevator leading to the lower floors stood empty, and players from not far away walked out of the blood-red passages, queuing up to enter the elevator, descending straight down along the traction steel ropes.

Similar situations were playing out in every corner; just from what he could see, there were dozens of blood-red passages.

Each passage end was also engraved with numbers.

"801, 802... 900?" Lin Yang was suddenly stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Seeing this, he understood.

This was not the way home at all?

It was from one prison to another!

"Wait, shouldn't we be going out?" Xiao Chen's happy mood was suddenly met with a basin of cold water, drenching him thoroughly.

"A superstructure, a lower cave..." Xiao Zi murmured to herself, her trembling voice filled with despair.

The original Prison 881 was stacked layer by layer like building blocks, with one hundred people living on each floor.

And here, it extended downward, like a large circular hole dug by a huge drilling machine.

Each floor had luxuriously decorated rooms, which, judging by size and style, were a hundred times better than the original prison!

Only...

Not a single person could be happy.

"How could this be, wasn't it promised that we were going home?" Lin Yang couldn't accept it, his expression like a funeral.

"No, I don't want to play Death Games anymore." Xiao Chen shook his head constantly, stepping back step by step.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the gate of the blood-red passage closed.

Even though Su Yang was mentally prepared, seeing this scene still caused ripples in his heart.

He looked at the black-gold room card in his hand, his brow furrowed.

At this moment, the iron door beside him opened, and dozens of excited players walked out.

Like Lin Yang, after seeing the current situation, their excited expressions vanished.

The same changes were playing out everywhere; most players thought leaving the prison meant going home.

But reality gave them a heavy blow.

"Please all players proceed to the negative first floor to check accommodation assignments."

The broadcast sound rang out, and Su Yang said, "Let's go."

Saying this, he took a step, walked into the elevator, and found "-1" among the fifty-one buttons.

Qin Weiyang had never complained from beginning to end; seeing Su Yang set off, she followed along.

Luo Shuangshuang followed closely behind, her expression not changing much.

Lu Junsheng was the fourth; he had known this news long ago and was well-prepared mentally.

"Why?" Xiao Chen roared in a low voice, full of unwillingness, "Why should I listen to him?"

"Xiao Chen!" Lu Junsheng frowned.

"I've played so many Death Games, isn't that enough to prove my ability?"

"What exactly does He want? Does He want to watch all of us die in the games to be happy?" Xiao Chen said hysterically.

His voice trembled slightly, containing deep fear.

Indeed, he had no confidence that he could survive in the upcoming Death Games.

Just thinking about meeting a player like Su Yang in the game made his limbs cold.

What if he stood on the opposite side of such a person?

What did he have to survive?

"You have no choice," Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly and said indifferently.

"Yeah, there are still tens of millions of people alive; one more of me isn't much, one less isn't much," Xiao Chen gave a miserable smile.

"If I die, I'll be like the people behind the glass wall, soaked naked in a jar, used as a collectible!"

His words made the atmosphere even more stifling.

People are afraid of death, especially after going through all kinds of hardships to get to where they are now.

Initially, the purpose of picking up the butcher's knife was to save their lives, but later it was a hope that kept them going.

They tried their best to escape.

"So what?" Su Yang asked back, "Your impotent rage here will only waste our time."

"No one can guarantee you'll live to the end, and no one can guarantee that going out of this cave means going back to Blue Star."

"Since you don't want to be soaked in a jar after you die, there's a ready-made solution now."

Su Yang pointed downward, "Jump from here; the height of fifty floors is enough to turn you into meat paste."

"Su Yang..." A flash of intolerance crossed Lu Junsheng's face, but he didn't say anything more.

"You have 'Illusion,' of course you're not afraid; if I had your talent, I could keep winning too!" Xiao Chen gritted his teeth.

"Too bad you don't," Su Yang said slowly, "We are not your babysitters, let alone your parents; we have no obligation to take care of your broken emotions."

Xiao Chen's face turned blue and purple; he opened his mouth to speak, but after a while, he couldn't spit out a single word, the whole person like a deflated ball.

"If you want to die, please do it quickly; I'm very sleepy," Su Yang urged.

"I refuse to die!" Xiao Chen seemed determined to go against Su Yang, walking into the elevator with large strides and standing in the corner with his arms crossed.

Su Yang glanced at him and withdrew his gaze.

In his impression, Xiao Chen was a rational person and smart enough.

Now that this situation had occurred, it was nothing more than the aftereffects of shattered hope.

In reality, Su Yang was also very irritable, wishing he could punch a hole through this cave.

Seeing old acquaintances in the blood-red passage was annoying enough, and Xiao Chen was complaining here like a clown.

He really wanted to take his head off and kick it away.

When the number of people was complete, the elevator descended quickly to the negative first floor, which was crowded with players.

They were all looking at the "Accommodation Assignment Table" displayed on the screen, searching for their room numbers.

Su Yang stood on tiptoe and scanned twice; the densely packed names made him dizzy.

At this moment, he felt his ribs poked, and turning back, he saw a delicate, beautiful, and cold face.

"You're in 1213," Qin Weiyang pointed.

Su Yang looked in the direction she indicated—

Name: Su Yang, Room Number: 1213.

"What about you?"

"Haven't found it yet."

"Then... see you when we meet again."

Su Yang waved his hand, took the room card, and turned toward the elevator.

Although a revolutionary friendship had been established between the two, he didn't want to waste effort in a place where he couldn't see the future.

Who knows when the two might have to compete on the same stage.

Lingering attachments would only affect his judgment.

Including Lin Yang and the others, it was the same.

Therefore, cutting ties when necessary was the best approach.

"See you when we meet again" was the final decency.

Su Yang took the elevator to the negative twelfth floor and found Room 1213 along the signs.

"Beep beep!"

The room card swiped, the brown-black door opened, and a faint scent of pine wood greeted him.

The first thing that came into view was a 30-square-meter living room; the furniture and soft furnishings were all in cool tones, belonging to the common minimalist style.

The soft light shone on him, as if sweeping away all his fatigue.

Su Yang smelled the fragrance in the air and suddenly felt a sense of warmth.

"Slap!"

He hurriedly patted his head, shaking off such unrealistic thoughts.

He must always remember that this is a prison, not a warm harbor!

After walking around the room, the overall layout was two living rooms, one kitchen, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms.

All necessary furniture was available, and beside the bedroom door was a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

The walls on both sides were the same, using the original formula.

He could see his neighbors through the walls.

"Why are there two rooms?" Su Yang went in and took a look, finding that beds were made in both.

Seeing this, he fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, the prison should be single rooms.

After all, points and rankings had to be calculated.

"Strange..."

Su Yang thought about it to no avail and randomly chose a room to place his belongings.

However, at this moment, a "beep" sound came from outside.

The door opened, and a figure walked in.

"Two people to a room?" Su Yang narrowed his eyes when he heard the footsteps.

When he walked out of the bedroom, he happened to come face-to-face with the newcomer.

"Su Yang?!"

The person's funeral-like expression suddenly burst into radiance.

"Damn it..." Su Yang patted his forehead, helplessly cursing.

Su Yang reached out and picked up a room card from the ground, flipped it over, and found the UID written on it was:.

"Who dropped this card?"
