Chapter 170: The Pinnacle of the World! The Top 30 Players
Some people, seeing the first first-kill, were terrified that the next one might catch up to them, and quickly ducked away and hid.
But others, seeing the first kill happen, thought instead—this game had finally officially begun!
......
Inside a taxi, the driver's expression was completely numb. He honestly had no idea why he was unlucky enough to encounter someone like this right from the start.
Over an hour of game time had passed, and this guy still hadn’t gotten out of the car!
He was just the escort driver!
Even though he couldn’t get hurt, he still couldn’t abandon the car and leave. The guy simply refused to get off.
Plus, the "fireball" in the front passenger seat was practically roasting him to dehydration! It was pure torture!
"Hurry up! Why aren't we there yet?!"
A voice from the back roared impatiently, scaring the driver so badly he almost couldn’t press down on the gas pedal."But...it’s a red light..."
"F*** your red light! Hurry up and get to that area, and don’t tell me you don’t know where it is."
"If you’re late......"
Threatened, the driver snapped in anger and slammed the gas pedal down viciously, forced to run the red light (not recommended).
And in the back seat, the tall man wearing a black fireproof leather coat clenched his fists so tightly his knuckles cracked, looking extremely excited.
"Heh...the strongest player...."
......
Similar scenes were happening all over Tokyo. Many similar figures were rushing at high speed toward one particular area.
"Trying to gather, huh...let’s go take a look."
......
"Crazy bastards. I hope the ones with big reputations are worth the hype..."
......
"Kill someone first, then put out the info? Reckless, but pretty interesting..."
.......
"Hmph!"
Many top players, for all sorts of strange reasons, began seeking out the strongest player.
Some purely wanted to see the strength of the strongest player—after all, Park Bu Seong last time was way too useless.
Some thought it would just be fun. Since "Sin" put out that kind of message, a lot of people would probably show up.
And some thought a bit deeper, guessing maybe the First Player was trying to lure in "hunters" this way, gathering the strongest players to see if they could resist.
——Mhm, the one overthinking things like this was Xie Antong.
......
Even though they all had different reasons, the final result was the same—Lu Ce’s declaration had truly gathered a group of players from this game.
Night had fully fallen. Lu Ce was currently leaning against the Black Knight, quietly waiting.
He stood right under the Tokyo Tower, and by now, he was completely surrounded by a crowd.
Because of "Sin"'s massive fame, and because he wasn't bothering to hide himself at all, appearing so blatantly in public, he looked just like a global superstar, surrounded so densely not even water could seep through.
A whole bunch of police cars had also shown up—not to drive Lu Ce away, but to drive away the crowd.
Honestly, he really did count as a global superstar.
Just, the kind whose deeds in-game, if committed in real life, would easily get him life imprisonment in any country.
Unless some "civilized" countries didn’t have life imprisonment.....
So nobody dared to really get too close. A wide open space had formed beneath Tokyo Tower.
Lu Ce narrowed his eyes as he watched the distant, flashing crowd lights, feeling a bit unreal.
This was the real world after all......
Since when had he gotten this famous, heh.
He even saw some sakura girls waving glow sticks, just like idol fans cheering for a concert.
Lu Ce was speechless seeing this. His blue mask showed a ferocious grin as he looked at the crowd that felt more like a lively festival.
But then small cheers erupted from within the crowd.
"Wow, look! He smiled!"
"His mask can smile? That’s so cool!"
"So cute, I want his contact info!"
......
Lu Ce: ......
"They seriously have brain problems...hey, if I wanted to make a big headline right now, should I shoot them in the head?"
The Black Knight replied:
"Wild imagination!"
"But that would make you a real b*stard...still, I support it. Want me to ram into them?"
Lu Ce: ......
This Black Knight, why’s he so evil...wonder who he learned it from.....
"By the way, what if nobody pays attention to you? If no players show up, won't you be super embarrassed?"
The Black Knight looked at the surrounding crowd and casually chatted.
"Nope...besides, those players aren’t as gentle and polite as me. What if they tear you apart?"
"Then I'll just run." the Black Knight shamelessly said.
"B*stard! You'd just run? What about me?!" Lu Ce kicked the Black Knight from the side.
The Black Knight turned his head. If he had a facial expression, he definitely would’ve lost control.
"You?! Bro, you don’t seriously think you’re gentle and polite, do you?...Hey, where’d you go?"
Lu Ce’s figure had already vanished.
Looking up again, he saw Lu Ce sprinting up Tokyo Tower at crazy speed, aiming for the top—the kind of motion that would make any parkour champion eat their heart out.
That tiny figure climbed up the iron structure, drawing another wave of gasps from the crowd. Some even found it fun and surged forward.
Before long, Lu Ce reached the tip of the tower—the lightning rod—and then pulled out his Hell Roar.
He aimed at the sky, switched to Third Gear, and fired three shots.
Three fireballs exploded in the sky, dazzling and brilliant, attracting everyone's eyes.
The crowd instantly erupted into cheers, no one realizing the danger hidden behind the beauty—or rather, many didn't realize.
"Wow! So pretty!"
"Is this a fireworks show? I’m filming this for YouTube!"
"Who’s that? A game player? Can we have more games like this in real life?!"
The crowd was noisy and joyful, like a holiday celebration.
A few minutes later, screams and cries erupted!
A flaming taxi crashed straight into the crowd, smashing and injuring who knows how many people, causing utter chaos.
The police immediately drew their guns, thinking the car had caught fire on its own, but the next second, the flames slowly extinguished.
The back door opened, and a tall, muscular middle-aged man stepped out. His muscles bulged against his fireproof coat. He looked around, grinning ferociously.
"Heh, the strongest player's stash isn't bad. Even has signal flares?"
"Looks like I’m the first one here! Or maybe...the rest are just cowards!"
His whole body radiated an explosive aura, like a volcano, making the crowd too scared to get close.
