Chapter 756: Chapter 756: The Rule of Elimination in the Wild Animal Park
After Wooden Orb explained the game, everyone had a general impression of “Wildlife Park”.
It’s a bit like a real-life version of Animal Chess, only the animals differ slightly.
The animals in Animal Chess are:
Rat, Cat, Dog, Wolf, Leopard, Tiger, Lion, Elephant.
And the animals in Wildlife Park are:
Rat, Cat, Fox, Wolf, Leopard, Lion, Bear, Elephant.
“What does it mean to be eaten?” Shen Mo asked out loud.
Wooden Orb spun in circles on the ground, its green leaves were crushed, only to sprout new buds. It shook a little and several fresh leaf buds appeared, like the antlers of a fawn.
“Being eaten means being eliminated.”
It shook its own “antlers”, and said in a light-hearted tone—
“This game recognizes three methods of elimination, listen closely~
First, when a higher animal in the food chain encounters a lower animal, a hunting button will appear on your watch. Simply touch your opponent’s body with the button to ‘eat’ and thus eliminate them.”
Everyone looked down and examined their own watches.
A simplified topographical map was displayed on the watch, with eight glowing small dots gathered in the center section.
The orb explained: “The watch will display your own and your teammates’ locations. Blue dots are you, and white dots are your teammates. However, you cannot see the enemies’ positions! Also, by clicking on the dots on the map, you can contact those respective teammates.”
A teammate from team White Glove said: “I can’t see the hunting button.”
“Of course, you can’t see it yet~” The Wooden Orb rolled over to him and explained, “The hunting button only appears after the King has assigned the animal roles! Is everyone clear on the first rule?
You’ll have time to try out the map and contact features later. I’m going to tell you the second rule now!”
Everyone lowered their hands and looked at the Wooden Orb on the ground.
“The second method of elimination!—
Although this is a Wildlife Park, it’s full of dangers just like a primitive forest. There are eight traps set up in the game area. If you inadvertently fall into a trap, you’re instantly eliminated!”
Shen Mo asked: “What do the traps look like? Can they lead to death?”
“They won’t! Although they cannot lead to death, the traps will immobilize the animals, making them lose their mobility.”
At this point, the orb paused a moment, let out a weird chuckle, and continued: “An animal that falls into a trap loses its ability to defend itself. If someone passing by wants to ‘eat’ them, it’s not forbidden.”
Shen Mo understood and said lightly, “So what you mean is, an animal trapped in a trap becomes the bottom of the food chain. Any animal can attack it, but it won’t change the elimination result. Whether dead, or alive, it’s still considered eliminated.”
“Yes, that’s how it is!” The orb chirped happily.
Asarina, who was standing aside and listening with a frown, couldn’t help asking, “Why is there such a rule? If falling into a trap means they’re already considered eliminated, then what is the point of ‘eating’ them? Isn’t it redundant?”
The orb snorted pridefully, “There’s good reason for this design. You will have your own experiences in the game. Now, let’s announce the third method of elimination.
The third one is very simple: if a player dies, they are eliminated.
Is it clear? Even if the hunt button does not touch your opponent’s body, if you can somehow manage to kill them, they are also eliminated. But please note this—
If your rank in the food chain is lower than the opponent’s, and they die at your hand, then you will be eliminated along with them.”
Perhaps for dramatic effect, all the green leaves on the orb withered and fell to the ground.
It lowered its voice and emphasized very seriously:
“I’m not joking… unless the target is in a trap, you must attack your targets according to the order of the food chain!
Don’t think about cheating! Also, don’t think that as long as you don’t do it yourself, the system won’t know! Whoever violates the food chain will be eliminated!”
