Infinite Game - Start With SSS Rank Class-Chapter 106: I give up

Rover’s words echoed through the space, brimming with confidence, with none of the worry he’d shown earlier.

Hearing that, Jonathan secretly felt delighted.

That’s right, arrogance like this was good. If you die, Nanoe will be free. Then catching her will be easy.

Amed and Damon also looked at Rover, their gazes turning icy to the extreme.

Especially Amed. His eyes were like a hound about to catch its prey, greedy and overflowing with killing intent.

Nick felt Rover had lost his mind. He agreed Rover was strong, but not the kind of strong that could take on everyone here alone.

Nanoe and Selina showed no worry or fear on their faces. They gripped their weapons tightly, ready to fight at any moment.

In their hearts, every decision Rover made was their decision. No matter how stupid or impossible it was, they would follow without hesitation.

The atmosphere was heavy and saturated with the smell of gunpowder, as if a single spark would make this whole place explode.

Amed began clapping...

Clap! Clap! Clap!

He laughed. "As expected... youth is full of hot blood. Truly enviable. Hahahaha..."

Damon glanced at Amed, then at Rover, his voice dripping with undisguised contempt. "Hahaha... Leng Yan, your man seems a bit too confident. Aren’t you going to stop him?"

Leng Yan shrugged. "His words are my words. He’s right. This supply crate is his. If you want to fight for it, you can try."

Leng Yan’s reply to Damon was sharp and cold to the bone.

Damon’s face suddenly went pale.

Amed smiled. "Leng Yan, I know you’re strong, but your mouth isn’t big enough to swallow this entire supply crate. At the very least... everyone here won’t allow that to happen."

Leng Yan walked up beside Rover and smiled. "Then you can try, or are you planning to hide in the back playing with dolls like a little girl?"

"You..." Amed frowned, and the smile on his face vanished.

At this moment, Selina and Nanoe also moved to Rover’s side, facing everyone here without fear.

Seeing this, Jonathan felt so irritated he could die. He cursed inwardly, ’Bastard! If you want to die, die alone. Don’t drag Nanoe with you.’

To him, Nanoe was the most precious treasure. He didn’t want her to suffer even the slightest harm.

Jonathan frowned and said to the two people with him, "Get ready. If a fight breaks out, your priority is to save that brown-haired woman."

The two were confused, but they didn’t dare disobey his order. Their eyes locked onto Nanoe.

The atmosphere gradually grew quiet, yet even colder and heavier than before.

At this moment, Rover wasn’t worried at all. His face remained utterly indifferent as he scanned around, because he held something that could make everyone here fear him.

Only... he was still a little uneasy inside.

He wasn’t worried about the people around him, but rather that... he didn’t know whether he could control that thing or not.

Damon tossed the chain he’d been holding aside and stepped forward.

He laughed. "I’ve heard Leng Yan is very strong. This time... I want to see just how strong you are."

The moment he finished speaking, his body turned into a massive plume of smoke, growing two arms, while his lower body dissolved into a sharp stream of smoke. He looked like a spinning top made of smoke with two arms added on.

"So that’s his [Smoke] ability?" Rover muttered. "Really does look like it’s straight out of a manga. Hope Oda doesn’t charge extra royalties."

"What are you talking about?" Leng Yan poked his cheek and asked with a laugh.

Rover shrugged. "I’m thinking, after I take the supply crate and get back, are you going to demand a share from me?"

"Hahaha..." Leng Yan laughed. The laugh was mysterious and seductive, yet also carried a hint of danger. "I don’t need the supply crate. If you can take it and return safely, then I just need to have a little fun with you."

"Heh?" Rover glanced at her and frowned. "Sounds like this deal is completely in my favor. You don’t get anything at all."

"No." Leng Yan said, "Whether it’s favorable depends on what we need. You need the supply crate, and I..."

She leaned her face close to his ear, her warm breath brushing it and making him itch.

"I need you..."

Hearing that, Rover shivered. He felt no excitement at all. Instead, he felt like Leng Yan was a wolf, and he was her prey.

Damon roared, "Enough! You treating me like air?"

"No," Rover said. "I’m treating you like smoke!"

Damon: "..."

He ground his teeth, furious to the extreme. His body grew larger and larger, like a hot-air balloon.

Amed stood to the side, his face wearing a cold smile drenched in death. He licked his lips, greedily staring at Rover’s group, his body trembling slightly from sheer excitement.

"Are you sure you want to go up against me?" Rover suddenly asked.

Damon burst into laughter, but a second later, his smile instantly vanished.

Rover simply waved his hand, and a transparent glass cabinet appeared.

Inside the glass cabinet, a statue was bound tight by countless red vines like blood vessels. Its face wore a twisted, eerie smile, and two wings stretched out like a bird’s.

"Motherfucker!" The moment Jonathan saw that statue, he yelled, then turned his head and urgently said, "Let’s go!"

Even though when he faced that statue, the system had locked his superpowers, Jonathan wasn’t an idiot.

Seeing Rover’s extreme confidence, he knew exactly how terrifying that statue was.

If he didn’t leave now, then when? Wait until that statue woke up?

Nick frowned and asked in confusion, "What’s going on? What the hell is that statue?"

Jonathan shot Nick a look, impatient. "He dragged that damn thing out of the mission we just did. If you want to die, stay here."

Nick jolted, staring at the statue inside the glass cage, full of confusion.

In truth, when Nick and Nanoe rushed into the church, that statue had already been pulled into the world inside the mirror by Rover, so they didn’t know it existed.

But Jonathan was different. He had clearly felt how terrifying that statue was. It wasn’t something the Survivors here could face, and it wasn’t something superpowers could defeat.

Jonathan didn’t know how Rover could control that damn thing, but he had no intention of staying here.

Suddenly...

Bloop! Bloop! Bloop!

"Fuck!" Jonathan jolted, cursing when he saw the ground suddenly begin to soften, slowly turning blood-red. He realized... it was too late.

Everyone else was also shocked, staring at the ground in disbelief. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"What the hell is this?"

"The ground... the ground is turning into blood..."

"What the hell is happening?"

"Could it be... because of that statue?"

That’s right... from the statue’s feet, an enormous amount of blood continuously poured out. But the moment that blood touched the ground, it vanished, as if the earth were drinking it all in.

People tried to run, but their feet were stuck to the ground. They couldn’t lift their legs to flee.

At this moment, Amed frowned, realizing his body was sinking into the ground. The stench of blood grew thicker and thicker, as if the entire space had become blood.

Damon had it even worse. Even though he had turned into smoke and was floating in the air, countless blood vines shot up from the ground and immediately bound him tight.

"Damn it!" Damon roared. "Don’t think this trash can trap me!"

He tried to disperse into smoke, but he suddenly realized... his body seemed to have been fixed in place.

As if the smoke had been hardened into stone, unable to dissipate anymore. All he could do was be dragged down by those blood vines, sinking into the ground, his body slowly turning into blood as well.

"What the hell is this? Motherfucker!" Damon shouted.

Crack! Crack!

The statue inside the glass cabinet began to move. The vines wrapped around its body, dried out like magma, began to split, then shattered into countless fragments.

Rover spoke up, "Either you get the hell out of here, the supply crate is mine, or we all die together. Once this thing breaks out of my glass cabinet, I won’t be able to control it."

"Fuck! You’re insane!" Damon roared.

Jonathan thought the same. Rover was insane. But when he saw Nanoe still standing calmly beside Rover, Jonathan ground his teeth, jealousy surging to the extreme.

Amed also tried to use his superpower to escape, but it was useless.

Crack! Crack!

The cracking sounds rang out again. The space itself seemed to turn into sludge, oppressively heavy.

A sense of fear swallowed everyone’s mind. They didn’t even know why they were afraid, but it felt like terror rooted deep within their souls, born from instinct.

"I... I give up!" someone shouted.

Others began screaming in panic.

"I give up too, let me go!"

"Fuck! You’re insane, I’m not playing with you anymore!"

"Let me go, I... I don’t dare stay here anymore!"

"Me too!"

Rover heard their voices but didn’t pay much attention. His eyes were focused only on a few people, including Amed and Damon.

Those two were still struggling, but at this moment, the glass cabinet encasing that statue began to sprout countless cracks.

The space grew even heavier. The sky also started to darken, turning blood-red, as if something unimaginably terrifying was about to descend.

Damon stared at Rover, gritting his teeth. "I... I give up!"

Rover nodded slightly, his gaze shifting to Amed.

Amed let out a sigh. His expression was far calmer than Damon’s, but he still shook his head with weary resignation. "I give up too!"

"Good. Then... this supply crate is mine."
