Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!
Chapter 519: Group Up to Slay Monsters

The female gamer shrugged, indicating she was fine with anything, and Siming, though hesitant, nodded in agreement after seeing everyone else consenting.

"If that’s the case, then we’re all companions in life and death!" The man shook hands with each of them, "My name is Yi Mao, and I am the captain of this team."

Xu Huo and his companions weren’t the type to seek attention, so they had no objections to him claiming to be the captain.

Yi Mao then introduced them to the other team members, which included two players from Clown City, one Level E and one Level D, clearly there to protect Yi Mao.

The rest had various skills, including sniping, close combat, wilderness tracking, terrain surveying, even a doctor with a wealth of knowledge in flora and fauna, and a professional skilled in communication.

"These people are all quite formidable, but in the face of emergency situations, ordinary people definitely can’t compare to players. With you joining us, our mission is bound to go more smoothly," Yi Mao said.

"What exactly is your mission?" the female gamer couldn’t help asking, "It must be different from that of the players, right?"

Yi Mao pointed to the large screen that had just lit up ahead, "The warrior’s mission is very simple, just two things, one is to kill as many Aliens as possible, and the other is to collect valuable resources in the wild for the government to recover and study."

"That doesn’t sound much different from playing a game," Xu Huo scratched his head, "Why doesn’t Clown City just send planes to bomb the Aliens?"

"Of course there’s a reason not to bomb," said the doctor standing behind Yi Mao coldly, "If it was possible to bomb directly, would we still need to sacrifice warriors?"

"He’s just asking because he’s not aware of the situation, was there a need for that attitude?" the female gamer said displeased.

The doctor wanted to say something but was stopped by Yi Mao, who explained, "The reason we don’t bomb directly is not only because there are two dangerous and explosive factories occupied by the Aliens, but also because there is a special substance underground that, if exploded, could endanger the entire city."

Xu Huo accepted this as a reason and didn’t ask further.

After waiting for a while, people in the center of the venue suddenly moved outwards, and then the central lift opened, slowly pushing out a huge cage.

"Ao ao ao..." accompanied by a scream that sounded neither human nor animal, an Alien appeared in everyone’s sight.

On the eyeglass screen, the Alien in the cage wasn’t presented in its normal appearance but only as a thermal imaging 3D pattern which moved restlessly along the cage, occasionally making sounds as it struck against the iron bars.

A man wearing glasses appeared on the large screen and waved to the people inside the venue, "A salute to all the warriors who have given their passion and courage for Clown City!"

"It’s because of you that Clown City can maintain its peace today; thank you for the sacrifices you made for the future of Clown City, and for our beloved families!"

"I know that after tomorrow, many warriors here won’t return, but rest assured, your families will receive the best treatment in Clown City, and there’s also an exemption quota!"

"If you can make it back alive, you will be the heroes of the entire city, and we have prepared generous rewards for the heroes!"

"Hunting down one Alien earns a reward of Five Thousand White Bills, for killing more than five, each additional one brings a reward of Ten Thousand White Bills, and for more than ten, the bounty for each will reach Twenty Thousand!"

"Additionally, anyone who brings back resources, no matter the amount, once adopted, can receive rewards ranging from Ten Thousand to One Million White Bills."

"Of course, this is just the reward for the results of the cleanup mission, for every hero who returns alive, the government will provide an extra reward of One Hundred Thousand and a house; in the event of injury or disability, the government promises to provide free lifetime medical treatment and take on the responsibility of support."

This speech had already made those present restless, after all, those rewards looked too tempting, and even if one couldn’t complete the mission, just coming back alive would be worth it.

"Finally! Of course, we also have the ultimate prize, which is capturing a live alien—anyone who captures a live alien, whether it is injured or maimed, as long as the alien is alive, can directly take away One Million White Bills!"

The venue erupted with excitement, and compared to the previous benefits, this grand prize was even more tantalizing: One Million White Bills, an amount so huge that even for gamers, it was enough to drive one mad with greed!

"Has anyone really received One Million before?" a female gamer asked, swallowing hard.

"Of Course," Yi Mao said. "It was a player from Clown City who came out with an alien, and the government paid out on the spot."

The people around were deeply moved.

"Having discussed the rewards, it is my responsibility to remind everyone that outside the protective walls are high-intelligence aliens. They can imitate the posture of normal people, disguise themselves as humans to approach you, and even use firearms and weapons. According to data from previous years, at least one-third of the warriors died this way."

"This data is heartbreaking and should also serve as a wake-up call to those who follow."

"We must never be negligent just because they were once humans. Once they cross that wall, the only ones who will suffer are our families!"

"Therefore, we must show no mercy to the aliens! Wipe out the aliens and take back our homeland!"

The person on the big screen raised his hand and shouted, and the people in the venue also started to chant loudly, "Wipe out the aliens, take back the homeland!"

"Wipe out the aliens, take back the homeland!"

"Wipe out the aliens, take back the homeland!"

The thunderous shouts lasted for several minutes, and the person on the screen pointed to the cage in the center. "Now comes the main event before you set off! Begin!"

As soon as his words fell, someone in the front crowd fired a gun, shooting straight through the thigh of the alien!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

...

Continuous gunshots rang out, as batch after batch of people stepped forward to shoot at the alien in the cage. Blood spilled all over the ground, the smell of blood filled the venue, and the alien, which had started howling, gradually became silent, lying breathlessly at the edge of the cage, then a warrior cut off its head with a knife!

When the bloody head was raised high, the venue exploded with unprecedented cheers!

"Are these people insane?" the female gamer stepped back half a step and muttered softly.

"This is what the oath-taking ceremony is like," Yi Mao said. "Apart from the government’s rewards, the hatred towards aliens is also one of the pillars of the warriors’ spirit. Only in this way can their survival rate be increased."

The female gamer was slightly embarrassed.

"Why don’t the holographic glasses restore the appearance of the aliens?" Xu Huo asked at this point. "If the aliens understand disguise, they might also pretend to be animals to confuse us, won’t that cause unnecessary trouble?"

"That’s because some aliens are too horrifying," the doctor said. "Those with insufficient mental fortitude might not even be able to steady their guns at first sight. Besides, it also helps to skirt around the psychological barrier of hesitancy to shoot a living creature."
