Final Players

[City of Sin - True Death Game]

The entrance passage at the bottom of the building was packed with people.

Today marks the final stage of the Death Grand Gauntlet," and as per usual practice, the paid lane will be reopened, allowing up to three thousand spectators to pay to come and watch the competition live.

Even though the fees are relatively high, there is still a long queue to grab a spot.

They even came all the way from the [Abyss of Slaughter], and each of them smelled strongly of blood; they formed a separate line.

Of the more than 1,000 teams that initially participated in the Death Grand Gauntlet, only 20 remained after going through three rounds of elimination.

These twenty people, though called servants, were actually "young people" carefully selected by various organizations and families, and there was even one special species born in a corner.

*Due to the omnipresence of the Fear Entity, reproduction in the corners is strictly restricted, and any offspring gestating in the Mother Fetus will be affected by the Fear Entity.

The vast majority will miscarry, and even if they are born, they are mostly deformed. It is also a huge challenge for them to grow up in a corner environment.

It would be difficult to survive without the transition of the Human World.

Therefore, many monsters with reproductive desires choose to descend to the Human World, reproduce, raise their offspring, and then, through normal Crevice screening, take them to a remote corner to continue the lineage.

Individuals born and raised in corners are extremely rare, sometimes only one is seen every few years. Both their pituitary rarity and developmental potential are incredibly high, and they are also more adaptable to corners, giving them a greater chance to venture into deeper layers.

Soon, Mr. Question Mark will officially announce the twenty selected individuals and the rules for the final challenge.

The waiting area was already packed with more than 5,000 spectators.

The servants and masters who were eliminated earlier, as well as the pure audience who just bought tickets, are all waiting here for this ultimate showdown between young geniuses from the corner.

In a corner,

The man, wearing a dark red raincoat, had his face covered by the hood, with a hint of red lips peeking out.

However, this red lip is different from the typical red lip of women. It is a rough red that covers both the upper and lower lips, as if it were applied with a brush.

The Joker, who was eliminated in the second round, did not leave. He stayed there without contacting anyone or letting anyone approach him. Most people didn't even notice his presence.

Even if you look over, all you can see is an inconspicuous balloon floating in the corner.

The four sisters also arrived at the scene and stood in a very front position. Two of them were servants who entered the final level, while Juan was just a spectator.

Click!

The lights were turned off as all the audience members entered.

The platform directly in front was designed as a "T" shape, and as the spotlight came down, Mr. Question Mark, still wearing a sack, made his appearance.

"Dear viewers! I know you're all eager to get started, so without further ado, let's welcome the players who have entered the final level of this Death Grand Gauntlet!"

Clang clang clang!

The music playing at the scene was intensely oppressive.

One by one, players, who maintained human form but had completely different temperaments, physiques and styles, appeared on the stage from left to right, standing in their respective circles.

At the same time, Mr. Question Mark also provided the corresponding character introductions.

This includes their Door of Fear, nicknames, style, the origins of their owners, and their impressive performances in the earlier levels.

"Seventh, Luo Di! He is the only human servant who has entered the final stage, not a monster. He is also the only true genius whose pituitary gland is still in the seed stage."

Based on our understanding of Luo Di, in addition to possessing the Corner System, he is also a Connector, possessing an alternative system from another world, which enables him to fight against opponents of higher levels.

His fear type is the Black Gate, nicknamed "D", and he tends towards a radical killing style. He is also good at using his brain when facing strong enemies.

He belongs to the "Sororium" and is an extremely rare male member.

Due to their outstanding performance in the second level, they received Skip Pass and proceeded directly to the final level.

Upon hearing the introduction, the entire audience gasped in surprise! The gasps were louder than the previous ones, not because of Luo Di's human identity, nor because he was still in the seed stage.

It's the sorority aspect,

Many male monsters, even those of much higher rank than Luo Di, gave him a thumbs up, expressing their utmost respect.

Eighth place!

Like Luo Di, the player who reached the final level by Skip Pass has a cooperative relationship with Roddy in the second level.

She belongs to the category of "Depth Servant," having lost her sense of self and being controlled by her master, Miss Wu Wen, through "parallel control," with her rank restricted to the budding stage.

The fear type is the Flesh Door," with no nickname, leaning towards disguise, Flesh Control, and assassination.

Ms. Wu Wen belongs to a newly emerging Corner Organization, which most people present probably haven't heard of yet, called "Vortex".

From what I understand, this organization has grown very rapidly without any backing from other organizations, and its leader must be a very capable person.

In any case, let's look forward to Ms. Wu Wen's performance.

The blonde girl is essentially Wu Wen's independent physical alter ego, used to meet the competition requirements.

Although they stood next to Luo Di on stage, the two did not interact much, and Luo Di was in a state of meditation with his eyes closed.

Mr. Question Mark continued the player's introduction,

When the last player appears,

Some sharp-eyed viewers had already noticed that this player was different from others, and even Luo Di's spine twitched slightly.

A bead of cold sweat rolled down the blonde girl's forehead, as did the class monitor in the audience.

"Sister Yu, can you feel it?"

Yu Lu deliberately brushed aside the bangs that were covering her eyes, and stared at the people who were coming out with her drooping pupils, simply commenting. "Hmm... a monster among monsters."

Wu Wen became extremely serious at this moment, "With someone like this in the game, Luo Di will most likely not be able to win the final victory. If Luo Di faces this person, please forfeit immediately."

"Don't worry about that. Even if I hadn't withdrawn immediately Sister Hua would have withdrawn anyway. I didn't expect us to be so unlucky as to encounter someone like this in the competition."

Hua Yuan remained silent, staring at the other party with a wary expression, gritting his teeth.

She considered herself exceptionally gifted, but the monster before her was clearly superior, a fact easily discerned by her pituitary gland alone.

Under the spotlight, a young man who was just over 170cm tall was walking onto the stage. He walked slowly and had an indescribable frail appearance.

She has light blonde hair parted in the middle, slightly past her ears, and narrow, long eyes with cool-toned irises.

She was thin and somewhat frail, wearing a brown striped Turtleneck Sweater, ordinary beige trousers, and sneakers.

Compared to the monsters on the scene, which all had some unusual features, this one looked more like a human.

He stood at the very edge, waiting for Mr. Question Mark to introduce him.

"The twentieth, Li Beite."

This player who made it to the finals is quite special! He had been staying within his clan and hadn't shown his face until now, this is the first time he's been exposed in public.

Of course, I had also made direct contact with the head of his family beforehand. This special monster came for the planters. He had just sprouted and was looking for high-quality planters.

Many viewers have probably already noticed.

He is Innate Monster, born in a corner and retaining his own identity, a newborn descendant of the [Formless Villa].

Although his performance in the first few games seemed ordinary, he simply followed the route I set to complete the game.

But he encountered no obstacles throughout the entire process, making him the easiest to pass. Let's look forward to this Innate Monster's performance in the final round.

When all players have been introduced,

Mr. Question Mark suddenly grabbed the burlap sack he had been wearing on his head, as if he was about to reveal his true face. Many people at the scene covered their eyes, unable to look directly at him.

"Ta-da!"

The burlap sack was ripped off, but inside was another burlap sack, essentially making a fool of everyone present, who could only awkwardly laugh along.

Holding a burlap sack printed with question marks in his hand, he walked towards the first player as some kind of lottery prop.

"Let's start drawing numbers now! Once everyone has drawn their numbers, we will begin the final stage."

Everyone quickly pulled out balls marked with numbers from the bags, but the feel inside the bags was strange, and no one dared to linger their hands inside. They quickly pulled out the balls as soon as they touched them.

The serial number on the surface of the sphere is between 0 and 9.

Luo Di drew a 3, while Wu Wen drew a 9.

As for the last one, Li Beite, she happened to draw a 0.

"Now, players who have drawn the same number, please pair up quickly, stand in order, and it would be best if you could get to know each other!"
