Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start
Chapter 1392 - Chapter 1392 1303 the bounty begins

Chapter 1392: 1303, the bounty begins Chapter 1392: 1303, the bounty begins Janet and the other core members were all good friends of Simon Herag. Asking him to eat the wristband was just meant as a joke to see his reaction, a friendly tease among pals.

But unexpectedly, Simon Herag actually ate it!

And he swallowed it so quickly that the wristband was gone in an instant, not leaving a single piece behind, too fast for anyone to stop him!

By the time Janet thought to intervene, the wristband had completely vanished, with only a few flecks of metal at the corner of his mouth, proof that he had indeed just eaten a wristband.

Faced with this situation, the entire meeting room sank into extreme awkwardness.

When you joke with a friend, the last thing you want is for them to take it seriously. Such an awkward scene was enough to make one wish they could hide in a crack in the floor.

However, luckily, Simon Herag was an Eighth-Order Peak Cultivator, and swallowing the wristband had no effect on his body, nor did it poison him.

So Janet and the others didn’t bring up the matter again, turning the page and starting to discuss how to cooperate with Su Yu.

…

But when Su Yu heard Janet’s words, he was shocked!

“Eat… eat the wristband?” Su Yu and Cat Morning Star’s pupils shook like an earthquake, staring at Simon Herag incredulously.

Eat the wristband? The kind used for communication? It’s edible?

Could it be a unique habit of Simon Herag? No wonder he had metal shavings at the corner of his mouth.

Faced with the gazes from Su Yu and Morning Star, Simon Herag felt even more awkward, his face turning from red to pale green.

Janet did not conceal anything, briefly explaining the earlier betting incident.

In the end, she said, “Because we didn’t fully understand you just now, Simon mistook you for a swindler. Now that he has eaten the wristband as a price, shall we just turn over this page?”

“Okay… alright.” Su Yu couldn’t help but cast a peculiar glance at Simon Herag.

This guy really is straightforward, eating a wristband just like that!

But then again, the wristband he ate must have been issued by the Fig Guard, right?

If the wristband is eaten, can it still serve as a tracker?

However, Su Yu didn’t dwell too much on this.

With a hand to his forehead, he said, “Alright then, let’s talk about cooperation.”

Janet spoke up, “Before we start collaborating, may I ask you a few questions?”

“Sure, ask away.”

“The ‘Su Yu’ who, the day before yesterday, was said in the council to have killed four cultivators of the same rank in a 1v4, that’s you right?”

“Yes, that’s me.”

“And the application to initiate the bounty, that was also proposed by you?”

“Of course.”

“Why did you propose such an application? Do you have some special tricks for this?”

“There are tricks, but I can’t tell you.”

“I understand… But are you confident that you can lead us to the first place?”

“Definitely, we can firmly secure the first place!” Su Yu was very confident.

“However, there’s an issue I must mention beforehand…”

Janet took some time to repeat what Simon Herag had said about “times have changed” and “major forces will inevitably cheat.”

Finally, she looked worriedly at Su Yu, “That’s the situation. The major forces will definitely spare no effort to hire extra members to boost their scores. Given this, are you still confident in taking the first place?”

Janet really wanted to ask whether his considerations might have been insufficient?

Although Su Yu probably had a talent for completing bounties, the other families’ ten-member teams could dispatch hundreds or even thousands of extra members. Could Su Yu’s talent match the combined capabilities of so many extra members?

But to her surprise, Su Yu was not the least bit worried and laughed, “Don’t worry about that. The point you raised is actually something I have already considered! Since the rules allow some room for cheating, it’s natural that some will cheat.”

In truth, Su Yu hadn’t thought of that at all; he said he had because it was something he simply didn’t care about.

“But!” Su Yu raised his voice, “Even if people cheat, I can 100% guarantee our team will be first, and with a clear lead! That’s my confidence!”

“Uh… really?” Both Simon Herag and Janet were stunned by Su Yu’s strong confidence.

Not even afraid of major forces cheating? What kind of powerful card was Su Yu holding, or was there some more terrifying power behind him?

However, they wouldn’t question Su Yu.

At this point, the “Fugue Nova” Adventure Group had only two options:

The first was to lead their own teams and score some points by chance;

The second was to wholeheartedly follow Su Yu.

The first option seemed bleak, leaving them with only the latter path.

Even if Su Yu was just boasting now, they had no choice but to go all in on this path.

“Then good, since you are full of confidence, let’s start working together from now on!”

“Good, let’s start the collaboration now,” Su Yu said with a smile.

Not familiar with local customs, Su Yu didn’t shake hands with them.

However, amidst the laughter, the collaboration was officially established!

…

In no time, it was June 14th, the official start date of the bounty.

Two days before, Su Yu and eight Eighth Rank Cultivators from “Fugue Nova” Adventure Group had already formed a team and registered, quietly waiting for the bounty to begin, while also actively preparing before the event.

This bounty event, as a rare council-sponsored large-scale activity, had nearly captured the attention of all residents.

This was about public welfare, as stopping criminal activities maximally benefited the common people, so almost everyone was looking forward to it, and nearly all eyes were on the bounty.

Since the average civilian had comparatively low strength, the bounty hadn’t resulted in mass participation.

But even without universal participation, the number of teams entering was still vast!

According to statistics from the Fig Guard, almost every star zone had over a hundred thousand teams signed up, with some more populous or crime-ridden star zones reaching over a million!

Among these were many who just joined to pad the numbers, as there was no barrier to entry, and some Third and Fourth Rank civilians registered just for the excitement, somewhat like Earth’s students cramming for entrance exams.

Despite many civilians joining just for the thrill, the sheer number meant there were many powerful contenders among them.

With so many strong participants and the attention of the entire populace, this bounty event instantly sparked a widespread discussion throughout the Fige Hub.

Everybody was speculating about who would win the grand prize.

One thing was certain: at least for these 10 days, crime rates would plummet, as ordinary criminals would likely not dare to make a move!

…

The Fegel Council and Defense Force also placed great emphasis on the bounty.

The event was mainly led by the Fig Guard.

The Defense Force invested a substantial amount of manpower and resources into registrations, tracking, tallying, maintaining security, and more.

Regardless, they were determined to make this bounty event a success!
