Chapter 98: Hidden rewards for the top three? The world outside the prison!

~7 min read 1,391 words

Dreams are mysterious things.

For the vast majority of people, they often forget the dreams they've had as soon as they wake up.

Occasionally, there are times when they leave a deep impression.

But it often doesn't last long.

Perhaps one day, while doing something, one feels a sense of déjà vu, as if they have experienced it somewhere before.

Su Yang had encountered a few similar situations, and he suspected that dreams could foresee the future.

The probability was extremely low, having only happened two or three times in twenty years.

"Foreseeing the future through dreams, is this his talent?" Su Yang touched his chin.

Lin Yang couldn't help but ask, "What did you think of? Tell me quickly."

"I thought wrong, the person behind the scenes doesn't just want my life, he wants to wipe all three of us out!" Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly.

"How did it become all three of us again?" Lin Yang was confused.

At first, Su Yang said he was being targeted, and after experiencing the 'that man' incident, he said he was an innocent bystander.

Now he's saying he wants the lives of all three?

Who exactly does he want to kill?

"I overlooked an important clue, which is your ranking," Su Yang's eyes flashed.

"Now I'm second, so that corpse..." Lin Yang frowned.

"Just a lead, in other words, this is the key to opening the conspiracy," Su Yang said.

"But why me?" Lin Yang was puzzled by this.

"You're overthinking it, the second place could be Lin Yang, or Zheng Yang, or Qin Yang. It just happened that you picked it up."

Lin Yang still felt it was unreasonable.

"If the watch was picked up by someone else, how could he guarantee the second place wouldn't kill you?"

If it weren't for the fact that he and Su Yang knew each other beforehand, if someone else had come, they would have shot the other person the moment they met.

"Do you still remember 'Deviation'?" Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly.

"You mean..." Lin Yang's breathing hitched.

"Once there was a sign of me and the second place killing each other, 'Deviation' would appear, and then both of us would have to go to the house to avoid the bombing," Su Yang said.

"The goal is to bind the first and second place together?" Lin Yang smelled a hint of conspiracy.

"Except for me, the second and third place could be anyone," Su Yang lay on his side on the sofa, his head resting on the sofa armrest.

"Why?" Lin Yang and Qin Weiyang asked.

"Because he has observed me for a long time, to be precise, he understood my habits and style clearly in the dream. If another first place were to replace me, things would exceed his control," Su Yang said leisurely.

Lin Yang recalled the ruthless attack 'that man' had made on him, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

"'Deviation' has always existed, you can't kill that man, and by the same token, he won't kill you..."

"That's right, after replacing you, he would accompany me and meet the third place on the scoreboard—Qin Weiyang—at the dormitory building," Su Yang nodded.

After being replaced, it was equivalent to the mastermind planting a spy by his side.

Every move was within his field of vision.

"He's not afraid of you taking revenge?" Lin Yang frowned.

Su Yang smiled, "I just said, he understands my style, so he knows that not only will I not take revenge, but I will join forces with him instead."

"What? I died and you're not helping me?" Lin Yang's eyes widened.

"Do dead people have value?" Su Yang asked back.

Lin Yang was just about to get angry, but suddenly realized this made some sense.

After all, this is a death game, not outdoor survival, and certainly not a sports field where loyalty is talked about.

A Lin Yang was missing, but a player with rich combat experience and an overpowered talent had arrived.

Both had watches, so teaming up would naturally allow them to better survive the time ahead.

Strong teaming up with strong, this is the law of nature, and also the iron law in the death game.

But Lin Yang was still very unhappy.

Su Yang looked at him muttering constantly and chuckled, "Didn't I help you when you were caught?"

"You have the nerve to say that, you almost hacked me to death," Lin Yang said unhappily.

Su Yang looked at Qin Weiyang leaning against the wall and said, "You're the same, he knows you very well, and also knows your habits."

"Tell me about it," Qin Weiyang's eyes turned cold.

"Very simple, your behavior of grabbing air-drops fits your persona, so you think it's only natural that you'd be hunted, and you definitely can't swallow this anger, thinking of fighting back," Su Yang said.

"Just for the watch on my hand? Calling over a hundred people?" Qin Weiyang furrowed her willow brows.

"Don't underestimate any player, if I'm not mistaken, his so-called promise must be a reward after leaving the prison," Su Yang raised his brow.

"Top three?" Qin Weiyang looked down at her watch.

"What's the difference between the top three and the hundredth place? The treatment is the same," Lin Yang asked.

"Most people understand it this way, and grabbing the watch is also to leave the prison," Su Yang nodded slightly.

Then he changed the subject, "But have you ever thought about where you will go after leaving the prison?"

"Go home, obviously," Lin Yang said as a matter of course.

Qin Weiyang didn't answer immediately, but pondered the possibility.

Just as Su Yang said, the person behind the scenes went to such great lengths to make so many layouts, if the final benefit was only a few more pieces of chocolate, it clearly wouldn't make sense.

"The world outside the prison... is it still a prison?" Qin Weiyang said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words were out, Lin Yang's face changed immediately, and he stood up abruptly, "That's impossible, after getting out of prison, it must be Blue Star!"

"Then let me ask you, where did these million prisons come from?" Su Yang asked back.

Lin Yang opened his mouth, his face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth, "It must have been secretly built by some organization, they spent huge sums of money, and also used a lot of manpower..."

Halfway through, Su Yang interrupted, "Then who tied you here? Where did the talent come from? Could the 'Administrator' be a variant cultivated by scientists?"

"Also, how do you explain the food gift packages that appeared out of thin air?"

Lin Yang was speechless, and bit the bullet, "Just like some novels write, spiritual energy recovery, humans have since entered an extraordinary era..."

"Following your logic, in the extraordinary era, who has the ability to set up tens of millions of different death games at the same time?" Su Yang asked again.

Lin Yang clenched his fists, and after a moment, he was like a deflated ball, his expression dim.

Su Yang turned his head and asked, "What do you think?"

"If the talent was bestowed by Him, and the prison and death game were all created by Him, then the Supreme One can only be..."

"A god," Qin Weiyang uttered.

"Humans have indeed entered an extraordinary era, everyone has talents, everyone can obtain points through the death game and win rankings," Su Yang nodded.

"So outside the prison, it must be a bigger prison!"

"The topic returns to what I said at the beginning, the person behind the scenes wants to get the top three ranking."

"After leaving the prison, the top three players will inevitably possess rights or rewards that other players cannot touch."

"He glimpsed a corner of the future through dreams, this is the origin and reason for setting up everything."

Qin Weiyang suddenly felt her brain wasn't enough, she still preferred the simple and crude game mode.

She looked at Su Yang's spirited appearance, her heart moved, "You guessed who the mastermind is?"

"I can't guarantee it 100%, but I already have a candidate in my heart," Su Yang nodded slightly.

"Who?" Both asked curiously.

"Eighteenth on the scoreboard—Xie Yu." ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
