Player World

[The Tidal Prison has been closed. Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the level.]

The Tide Prison's opening hours have been reset to zero, and the system will automatically compile statistics on today's battle situation.

[Today, the prison was invaded by 12 player operators. Of these, 5 players were killed, 6 players successfully evacuated, and 1 player got lost.]

[Prison kill rewards are now being distributed. Each player killed by a player in the prison will receive 50 Haff Coins, for a total of 250 Haff Coins. The current prison account balance is 407 Haff Coins.]

[Prison asset loss: 1500 million HAF coins; remaining prison assets: 3100 million]

[13 prison guards died today. Should they be resurrected? Note that if resurrection is not attempted within 24 hours, it will be impossible to revive them.]

"resurrection."

[Resurrection successful, total cost 130 million Haff coins, account balance 277 million Haff coins]

[Received 5 sets of player equipment today, bringing the total to 10 sets. Should I sell them?]

"Not for sale."

After the system completed the settlement and the notification sound disappeared, Han Che asked a question.

"What should we do with these two lost players?" Han Che stood outside the cell, where the two lost operators seemed to have lost their souls.

The moment the prison's opening hours ended, the howling and struggling stopped.

Han Che thought the Japanese man was terrified when he acted that way before, but he didn't expect Hank from the United States to be the same way this time.

Now the two of them are sitting quietly on their beds in their cell.

You can arrange it yourself.

"What should I do? They don't seem like the type to be prison guards. Help me think of a solution!"

You can also hand them over to the Hafk Group; the Hafk Group will reward lost players.

"What reward?"

For details regarding bonuses or supplies, please contact the Hafk Group. I can help you get in touch with them.

Logically speaking, Han Che should be very happy to hear about the extra reward.

But at this moment, he had a strange feeling, as if the system was just waiting for him to ask how to handle it.

However, the system's cold, mechanical voice made Han Che unsure if it was truly so.

"Don't contact me yet, I need to keep this in mind."

Let's stay and observe for now.

Han Che stood up from his office chair. His mind was no longer on the prison; what he cared about most was the passage to the player world!

Going to the player world is the only way to earn more money; otherwise, you'll just be earning this little bit of money from each battle loss, which has a very low margin for error. You never know when you might run into a shield dog in a small room like you did today.

If you really get elbowed to death and don't even have enough money to revive, there's really nowhere to complain!

Han Che called over Shi Ding and Shi Lei, "The prison guards who sacrificed their lives should have been resurrected by now, right? Make arrangements for the prison guards, and let them get some rest today."

"I'm going to pull the switch in a bit to do an experiment. Tell the brothers not to worry about it."

"Yes!" Shi Ding didn't understand what kind of experiment could be done by pulling the switch, but he still believed that the warden had his own considerations, so he immediately agreed.

After assigning prison matters to Shi Ding, Han Che went to the second floor of the medical laboratory to break the gate and then to the control point.

"Someone has activated the power switch for the pipeline gate; the escape window is open. Confirm the location of the rendezvous point!"

Suddenly, the loudspeaker blared in the prison, but Han Che had arranged for prison guards in advance, so there was no disturbance.

"Let's go! Let's check out the prison evacuation point!" Han Che was excited, and his steps were more frivolous than usual.

Once inside the cell, the feeling of being pulled apart by the confinement of space returned.

"As expected! It's because of the power outage!" Han Che's guess was completely correct; this was indeed the portal to the player world!

Before entering, Han Che called out to the system, "System, open the live stream interface!"

Then, on the live streaming webpage, I found the live footage of the reporters on site.

Reporters on site were filming the scene around the portal in real time from the helicopter, which made it convenient for Han Che to observe the situation outside and avoid being seen by a bunch of people as soon as he went out.

Seeing that the crowd had dispersed and the officials and club personnel present had all left, only a few soldiers remained.

Han Che took off his mask and threw his weapons and armor into the system space.

He then probed the hole above the puddle with his foot twice, and felt a distinct pulling sensation from his foot, as if he would be sucked in if he went any further.

"System, I've gone out. Can you bring me back?"

【Can】

Han Che was taken aback. He hadn't expected the system to give him a reply, but this time, instead of warning him against going to the player world, the system directly told him that he could come back.

Since that's the case, what are we waiting for!

Jump!

Han Che jumped straight into the puddle with his feet together, but the expected splashing sound did not occur; he vanished into thin air as he fell.

As vision dimmed, scattered spots of light drifted out from the depths of my consciousness and passed through my eyes.

"...This great project must be implemented immediately!"

"We lack resources, while this place is rich in resources, so we have no choice but to..."

"The sky belongs to... this is a necessary sacrifice."

"Let it be, let it grow on its own... We will come eventually..."

A chaotic consciousness and hazy memories surged deep within my brain.

Like a dream, you can never remember the whole picture. Only at some point in the future can you find a sense of déjà vu that seems to have been seen before.

……

With a splash, the water surface erupted, and a figure suddenly leaped out of the water. Han Che tilted his head back, took a deep breath, and slowly swam to the shore.

"Holy crap! What did I do here?" After finally climbing ashore, his black combat trench coat was soaked through and clung tightly to his body.

[Congratulations, host! You have achieved the milestone of entering the player's world for the first time.]

The system's voice suddenly rang in my mind.

"An achievement? Then why don't you reward me with something!" Han Che said irritably.

[Rewards being distributed: Player World Style Outfit x1! Player World Phone x1!]...

Han Che eagerly awaited the system to reveal the rewards, but all he received in response was an awkward silence.

"That's it?"

Should I wear it immediately?

"Huh? You're really stingy! Just a set of clothes?" Han Che forced a smile, but being soaking wet was not only uncomfortable but also drew attention. "Wear it!"

Han Che's soaked black trench coat, combat pants, military boots, and red gloves had all disappeared.

She changed into a black hoodie, jeans, and sneakers.

Han Che then realized that although he had removed his mask and armor, his combat trench coat was still quite conspicuous. His current attire was much more normal.

"What should I do if I want to go back to Tide Prison?" Han Che asked the system.

[Return here in Gherros's gear, and I will take you back to the prison.]

Only then did Han Che have time to carefully observe his surroundings. He was now on the riverbank under a bridge, presumably having been teleported directly into the river.

"No way! We have to jump into the river again when we get back?"
