"Kosei University, with a total of 33,121 faculty and students, has 16,263 survivors remaining after the first round of the game, and 986 people did not arrive at the playground within the specified time. According to the game rules, they will be eliminated!"
Swish!
A hundred huge virtual screens were projected from the silver carousel in the sky, like movie screens.
They displayed the students hiding in various corners of the school.
Then, as the silver carousel announced the start of the punishment, their heads exploded instantly, and they all died in a moment.
The entire playground was silent, the atmosphere incredibly oppressive.
Many girls trembled with fear, crying silently, but dared not make a sound, worried about being targeted by the silver carousel.
"In this game, 'Advancing Civilization,' the Tower of God game is the most hardcore mode. We have carefully prepared various survival games to ensure that all players are thoroughly engrossed!"
The mocking voice of the silver carousel echoed through the sky.
"Players who successfully reach the top of each Tower of God will receive a large number of points, various top-tier rewards, and honorary titles. At the same time, your names will be listed on the leaderboard, known to the millions of viewers in the entire star alliance."
"If you become the most popular player, you will receive unimaginable, ultra-luxury rewards!"
"Many of you, no matter how hard you work, will remain mere workers for life. But now, if you can conquer the Towers of God, you can get everything you want."
"Everyone, strive to conquer the towers!"
The voice of the silver carousel, like the whisper of a devil, tempted everyone.
The Tower of God has a thirty-step staircase, followed by a small platform, and then a grand and mysterious door.
Engraved on it are mysterious and terrifying patterns.
Rumble!
The door of the Tower of God opened to the sides, revealing a golden light screen that blocked the players' view inside.
"The Tower of God at Kosei University is now officially open. Please players, quickly conquer the tower!"
The silver carousel laughed, uttering a cruel and bloody statement.
"Hurry up, if no one successfully reaches the top within seventy-two hours, all 15,277 survivors in the school will be eliminated!"
"Do not attempt to escape the campus, or you will be eliminated immediately."
Sigh!
Many people's faces turned pale; they hadn't expected there to be no way out.
"Why create such a terrifying game rule?"
Lu Wenjun cried out.
She had thought that not climbing the tower would mean no danger, but now she had to rely on others. If no one could reach the top of the tower, she would die too.
Thinking of this, Lu Wenjun instinctively turned her head to look at Sun Yuan.
"Sun Yuan, can you reach the top of the tower, right?"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Other timid and frightened girls also looked over.
"Don't be afraid, I will reach the top!"
Sun Yuan reassured them.
This rule did not exist in the mobile game, as he was the only beta tester, and no one could be eliminated by the silver carousel.
A man in his fifties, holding a megaphone, walked up the steps of the Tower of God with a confident stride and shouted to the students on the playground.
"Students, don't be afraid. The teachers will protect you. We have already formed a twelve-person vanguard team and will be the first to climb the tower!"
"It's President Wang!"
Li Wan was excited.
Wang Shuyuan was very famous and well-regarded at Kosei University. He was dedicated to scientific research and spent most of his time in the laboratory.
It was said that he might be awarded the title of academician next year.
"Compared to President Cui, he is a scoundrel!"
Zhuo Wen was indignant.
With so many professors and teachers at Kosei University, someone would definitely step up. President Wang had already formed a vanguard team.
In contrast, President Cui was only thinking of ways to exploit the students' points and not doing his job properly.
As President Wang finished speaking, the twelve-member team of teachers stepped onto the stairs, then passed through the golden light screen and entered the Tower of God.
"Students, if you have any difficulties, go to President Zhou!"
Wang Shuyuan said, handing the megaphone to Zhou Hongzhi, and resolutely entered the Tower of God.
"Students can rest on the spot, please try not to leave the playground."
President Zhou was helpless.
Principal Cao had turned into a monster, and Vice Principal Miao was in shock. Normally, those with the qualifications to compete for the principal position would fight for it.
But now, no one wanted to take on this mess.
Only the good-natured President Zhou stepped up to the challenge.
"Ah, this job is not easy!"
Zhou Hongzhi sighed, looking at the lifeless students.
"President Zhou, can we climb the tower?"
Tang Yan walked up the steps, with Tang Tang following behind, hands in her pockets, blowing a bubble gum.
"About that..."
Zhou Hongzhi hesitated.
"President Zhou, since they are willing to go, let them go. You heard what the silver carousel said: if the Tower of God is not conquered within seventy-two hours, all faculty and students will die."
Cui Xueren walked over: "I have also formed a volunteer team and will send them in!"
"People will die!"
Zhou Hongzhi was worried.
"Many people have already died."
Cui Xueren didn't care.
"What a hassle!"
Tang Tang complained, not caring whether Zhou Hongzhi agreed, and ran directly to the Tower of God.
"If anyone else wants to climb the tower, you can go now!"
Cui Xueren shouted.
The more players there are, the higher the success rate for conquering the tower.
One after another, people walked toward the Tower of God.
It must be said that in this world, there are always people willing to take risks. They have ambition and courage; what they lack is opportunity.
And now, the opportunity has come.
In less than five minutes, more than two hundred people entered the Tower of God.
"Who wants to go?"
Shen Jingran held her phone, sending messages to her backup contacts while asking the students around her.
"Senior, have something to eat to replenish your energy!"
Zhen Yu peeled a piece of chocolate and offered it to Sun Yuan.
Sun Yuan did not refuse this time.
He hadn't eaten lunch and was quite hungry.
Wang Xu, seeing this, suddenly clenched his teeth: "I'll go!"
Normally, Sun Yuan wouldn't have the favor of a major female streamer, but it was because of his previous excellent performance.
If he also became a powerful player, he could find such a beautiful girlfriend.
"Count me in!"
Zhuo Wen also decided to take a risk; he didn't want to be outdone by Sun Yuan.
"If I pass the game, can my teeth be fixed?"
Zhou Ze touched his mouth and decided to climb the tower.
Soon, seven boys climbed the tower, and among the girls, Zhao Limin and Li Wan were persuaded by Shen Jingran to take a chance.
"Zheng Chun, are you not going?"
Zhuo Wen pressed.
"I... I won't go. The meat bun I had this morning was problematic, and my stomach is a bit painful now."
Zheng Chun had a pained expression and rubbed his stomach.
It was an excuse.
He didn't want to take the risk.
"Let's go!"
Sun Yuan walked toward the Tower of God.
Zhen Yu immediately followed.
"Let's go!"
Shen Jingran clapped to encourage everyone: "We will definitely succeed in climbing the tower and get the top-tier rewards."
Watching them leave, Zheng Chun curled his lips.
"A bunch of idiots, rushing to their deaths!"
Why not wait for enough information before climbing the tower? Wouldn't that be better?
As for being the first to pass?
Don't even dream about it.
Because Tang Yan and his sister entered the tower, the first kill will definitely be theirs.
