Chapter 157 The Battle of Reaching the Pinnacle!
Knowing that Chu Ge was being hunted by King Kuihu and that it even involved real life, the members of the Suicide Squad were filled with righteous indignation, each one wishing they could flay King Kuihu alive.
"Damn it! I still remember the grudge of being beheaded by that guy; next Survival Competition, I'll definitely kill him!" Ye Wukong shouted angrily.
Xiao Poor Thing was also very angry, not understanding why King Kuihu would do such a thing.
Local Snake called out, "In the next Survival Competition, you guys can fight however you want, I've got your backs. No matter how brutal, I will absolutely make it to the end!"
His bold declaration was met with eye rolls from everyone.
Gu Tianjiao looked at Chu Ge and said earnestly, "Don't worry, we'll do everything in our power to kill King Kuihu. Since he's so rich, we'll force him to use the Assassination Scroll round after round, send him to the zoo. If he dares harm your family in reality, I can come and support you, protect your family."
She spoke with sincere emotion, her gaze never leaving Chu Ge.
Chu Ge's heart warmed.
This was a good woman.
Tong Lianshi may be as beautiful as a movie heroine, but she wasn't suitable for him.
Fortunately, he hadn't completely lost his heart and pursued Tong Lianshi.
The allure of a femme fatale nearly disrupted my spiritual focus.
"From now on, in the Survival Competitions, let's target King Kuihu and try every method to take him down!" Gu Tianjiao swept her eyes over the crowd and commanded in a stern voice.
As the vice-captain, her status was second only to Chu Ge.
In the Survival Team, the vice-captain can kick people out!
Arno, Nangong, Ye Wukong, Xiao Poor Thing, and Local Snake had no objections.
They were not afraid, they were eager and itching for action.
Especially Ye Wukong and Arno.
The former had undergone a transformation and had recently exchanged for a new Survival Skill, eager to display his divine might.
Arno was a battle maniac; the stronger King Kuihu was, the more excited he became.
Chu Ge's heart was warmed as he said earnestly, "Thanks to all of you!"
"What's to thank? If we were in trouble, boss, you wouldn't just stand by either. You said it yourself, the Survival Team sticks together through thick and thin - whatever difficulties we face, we face them together!" Nangong chuckled.
The others followed suit, comforting Chu Ge.
The matter with King Kuihu brought them even closer together.
They started to eagerly discuss their battle plans.
However, they were still unclear about the specific rules and environment for the next Survival Competition, so they couldn't finalize their plans just yet.
They could only focus on making King Kuihu their primary target.
Afterward, they began their individual training.
After training, Chu Ge returned to his Survival House.
He received messages from his Survival friends.
Song in the Windy Night (Vulture): How did you get into trouble with King Kuihu? Be careful, that guy is a madman.
...
Fingertip Cigarette (Saltwater Crocodile): Lion, impressive! Kill King Kuihu; I also can't stand that guy. If you manage to kill him, I'll send you a big red envelope!
...
Xiao Hero (Bald Eagle): Hang in there. When I join the Suicide Squad, I'll make his life worse than death.
...
Chu Ge was speechless; how had this news spread?
He suddenly realized that there were circles among the Survivors, and hiding one's real-life address would be difficult.
The only way was to keep a low profile and not provoke enemies.
Like Local Snake, for example.
After replying to each one, he returned to reality.
Dinner time arrived, Chu Feiqiang was drinking wine and talking about family gossip.
Tong Lianshi sat obediently next to Chu Yingying, like a docile kitten.
This time, however, Chu Ge no longer paid attention to her.
But she kept glancing at him now and then.
A smile played in her eyes, her thoughts unknown.
For dinner this time, Chu Ge was still absent-minded, thinking about how to hunt down King Kuihu.
The night passed peacefully.
Two days hurried by.
The details of the next Survival Competition were also announced.
The team from Suicide watched the screen in front of them at the Team Cultivation Hall:
Next Survival Competition:
Ultimate Mountaineering Battle!
1. All Survival Teams fight each other; for each enemy killed, you can obtain 200 Survival Points, and for annihilating an entire Survival Team, all members will receive an additional 500 Survival Points!
2. At the end of the Survival Competition, the Survivor at the highest altitude will gain an additional 1000 Survival Points, and the entire team will gain an additional 500 Survival Points!
3. There won't be any bird-type Survivors in this Survival Competition. As long as there's a Survivor alive within a Survival Team, that team will be considered successful in the competition.
Special reminder: at the end of the Survival Competition, the three teams at the lowest altitudes will be directly eliminated, and this does not include the team at the highest altitude!
Special Rule—Vengeful Ghost's Revenge:
Invisible Vengeful Ghosts will hunt Survivors without restrictions. They cannot kill each other and belong to the same camp. For each Vengeful Ghost a Survivor kills, they will obtain 200 Survival Points. If killed by a Vengeful Ghost, 400 Survival Points will be deducted, not including the 200 Survival Points deducted for failing the competition.
Duration of the mission: 120 hours.
Location of the mission: Huashan.
...
Everyone fell silent, deep in thought as they looked at the rules displayed on the screen.
Ultimate Mountaineering Battle!
There were more ways to earn Survival Points compared to the previous rules, but the stakes were higher too.
If killed by a Vengeful Ghost, you would directly lose 600 Survival Points.
Chu Ge had only 300 Survival Points left...
Meaning, he absolutely couldn't be killed by a Vengeful Ghost.
"Huashan... At this time of the year, are there many people there?" Nangong asked cautiously.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Right! Human presence had to be considered!
If there were many tourists, the higher you climbed, the more likely you would be exposed…
Ye Wukong said excitedly, "The Summit of Huashan, the time for the final battle! This really gets the blood pumping!"
Arno was also pumped up, chuckling, "And the number of Survival Teams hasn't been shown, which must mean there's quite a lot since the three teams at the lowest altitudes will be directly eliminated."
In summary, it was about killing enemies and avoiding Vengeful Ghosts, with the added effort of striving to climb to the summit!
This was the Ultimate Mountaineering Battle!
"We stick to the same goal, to hunt down King Kuihu at all costs! Don't be afraid of being exposed; the Survival Arena will find ways to suppress the chaos, and even if we're discovered, what's there to fear? We are in animal forms!"
Gu Tianjiao said coldly, looking at the Local Snake, "Your task is to keep climbing towards the summit. Can you reach the peak within five days?"
The Local Snake swallowed nervously and asked cautiously, "How high is the highest peak of Huashan?"
"Over two thousand meters, I guess."
"Er... I hope I don't end up at the base of the mountain..."
The Local Snake seemed to lack confidence.
After all, he was quite small.
Chu Ge spoke up, "Alright, starting now, everyone will focus on enhancing your mountaineering skills. Huashan is known for its treacherous peaks."
Everyone nodded, suppressing their excitement and nervousness.
Chu Ge felt a bit of a headache when he thought about having only 300 Survival Points.
The next round was truly a do-or-die battle!
If he got killed by a Vengeful Ghost, he would become one too.
But from this point of view, he wasn't in a hopeless situation.
Having Virtue Points still had its benefits.
Chu Ge thought about this while having the Team Cultivation Hall create a mock mountain for climbing practice. Read the latest on empire
