#City Headlines: Yin Luo Blocks the Road and Robs Passersby Whenever She Feels Like It#
When Ming Shu woke up, she was lying on a small and broken bunk bed . There were all sorts of packets thrown on the ground .
The walls and the ceiling were splattered with bloodstains . Some were new while others were old . The air smelled moldy and bloody .
The only source of light in this room came from a window . The scenery outside was gray and misty . Ming Shu could vaguely see buildings, but they were not clear .
She got down from the bunk bed . After ensuring that the surroundings were safe, she started downloading the storyline .
The background of this city was similar to a survival game .
In this game, areas were divided based on cities and each city was given a star ranking . The lowest was one star and the highest was five stars .
The humans that were chosen would be the players of the game .
The players that were chosen could enter a transmigration area . In this area, players could check their personal information, redeem items, rest, and even form a team .
But, new players did not have the chance to form a team .
This didn’t mean that the new player would get a one-star city for their first mission . They could be transported to a two-star, or if they were really unlucky, a three-star city .
If a new player survived in their first city, they would get the opportunity to form a team . As for which city they would be transported to, it was all up to the transmigration area .
Survival would be easier in lower star cities . If one got transported to a higher star city, they could only pray .
Hence, most people would choose to form a team once they completed their first mission . It was easier to survive as a team .
The fake female protagonist was called Du Mian, reborn .
Before she was reborn, she was jealous of the female protagonist . Although the female protagonist didn’t have many capabilities, there were always outstanding men around her . Even the man that she liked hovered around the female protagonist . Hence, she was green with envy and ended up digging her own grave .
After she was reborn, Du Mian snatched the gold finger from the female protagonist . It was a magical space . Not only could you store things inside, you could duplicate specific metal objects too .
For example, weapons… cars…
As long as you have the prototype, she could duplicate it for you .
With these two things, Du Mian led a really good life in this game and became a winner in life .
The Host was called Yin Luo . In the transmigration area, Yin Luo was a legend, and a weirdo .
She never formed a team with anyone but she could survive alone in a three-star city . No one had ever met a player that came back from four-star and five-star cities . It was rumored that no one could come back alive from a four-star or five-star city . Hence, there was no one who went to a four-star or five-star city in the transmigration area .
A three-star city was the highest level in the transmigration area .
Yin Luo met Du Mian in a three-star city .
The Host had a space in her items pack too . Du Mian’s space could only level up by swallowing other similar items, but space-type items were hard to come by . Hence, when she met the Host, Du Mian tried all means to snatch the items in her hand .
The Host was powerful . Du Mian didn’t manage to succeed even after a few tries .
When doing a mission, the Host was stranded in an underground ruin along with the few of them . Because of special circumstances, the Host had no choice but to move together with them .
They met a formidable monster along the way . Du Mian used the Host as bait for the sake of her team and the Host lost an arm because of this .
The Host had been schemed against by the same person so many times and even lost an arm because of her . No matter how kind someone was, they would change in such a situation too .
From then on, the Host embarked on a path of no return .
In the end, the Host died at the hands of Du Mian . Her item was a bit special . It was hidden in her heart . Hence, Du Mian dug her heart out .
Now, this was a two-star city .
This was the first city in which Du Mian and the female protagonist encountered . The Host was here too, but her level was too high so they didn’t meet each other .
Ming Shu was in a daze after she downloaded the storyline .
The food supply in all the cities was limited . Here, you not had have to complete your mission, you also had to ensure that you would not die of hunger .
Ah!
I hate this kind of city . I will starve to death!
Shua shua shua—
Suddenly, shooting stars started flashing past her window . The light from the stars dispersed the haze outside .
Information about these things flashed past Ming Shu’s mind .
Stars of the city .
After they entered the city and before the arrival of the stars of the city, the entire city was safe .
Players needed to find a star of the city within 15 minutes after the descent of the stars and use it as a pass within the city to start the game .
What this meant was that if a player didn’t get a star, he or she would disappear . Disappearing meant death .
After they got their stars of the city, the game officially started . The city would turn into a dangerous place .
The first group of people that got eliminated were new players who didn’t know what was happening . New players who managed to survive were either lucky or they had the abilities and intelligence .
Old players were rarely eliminated . They knew the general area where the stars would fall so they would find a location with the highest probability of stars landing and wait at the area .
The Host was an experienced player . Hence, the spot she was at was chosen after much observation .
Ming Shu pushed the door open . There was a balcony outside and coincidentally, a golden shining star of the city had landed on the balcony .
Ming Shu picked up the star of the city .
The star shone twice and then disappeared in her palm . Lights twirled around her sleeve .
Ming Shu folded her sleeve and saw a round symbol on her wrist . The star of the city shrunk and embedded itself in the center of the symbol .
That spot… was where the artery was .
The lights around the star of the city became weaker and then disappeared entirely in the end .
Data appeared in Ming Shu’s mind .
Player ID: 13
Player level: Four-star (can level up)
Player items: Super poisonous needle, wind crack, invisible cloak, magic bean… rotating space .
Player’s current city: Ruin City (two-star)
Rules of the game: The city is split in two . The players are split into the white and black teams . After ten days, the team that has more people in it will win .
Player’s team: Black
Ming Shu looked at the items bar . After counting them carefully, she realized that there were more than 20 types of items . However, most of them were still gray . This was because the level of the city was too low so the items couldn’t be used here .
The rotating space was gray too . This rotating space must the item that Du Mian wanted to snatch from her .
This thing was located in the heart…
What can such a space store?
Ming Shu recalled that this space didn’t seem to be used for storage purposes . It was used to kill people . Anything that got sucked into this space would be shredded by the space blades .
Killing and robbing, and disposing of the corpse . It was a must-have for such occasions .
Unfortunately, she couldn’t use it .
Besides these things, she could check the map too .
Every city had a different map . This time, the map was square-shaped and there was a star of the city in the middle giving out a golden glow .
At the top of the map, the two teams were shown, followed by a series of numbers .
Black Team: 2000
White Team: 2000
At this moment, the number of people in the White Team suddenly dropped from 2000 to 1999 . In the blink of an eye, someone died .
The only way to survive in this game was—to kill .
However, to Ming Shu, the most important question was—what would she eat!
