"Attention all Reincarnators, the task world transmission will begin in 10 minutes..."
With this system prompt, it was clear that no more newcomers would enter the white room, which served as the preparation room.
At this moment.
Including Chen Ye, the room had gathered nearly 20 people.
Although these people remained silent, standing far apart like strangers, Chen Ye could tell from their expressions and occasional glances that they were all here for him...
Smiling slightly, Chen Ye said nothing.
Time ticked by slowly...
10 minutes passed quickly.
The system's voice rang out again:
"Transmission countdown begins, 10, 9, 8... 3, 2, 1!"
As the countdown ended.
Everyone in the white room was enveloped in red light and disappeared.
...
In a residential house in Port City.
Suddenly.
With a flash of red light, about twenty people appeared out of nowhere.
All the reincarnators, including Chen Ye, appeared simultaneously in the living room of the house.
In the center of the living room, there was a long table.
On it were twenty glasses of water.
Then, a cold, mechanical voice announced: "Please drink a glass of water within 30 seconds, or be obliterated!"
After the prompt, everyone was stunned, their eyes fixed on the water glasses, lost in thought.
No one moved.
Chen Ye suddenly laughed and said, "There's only 30 seconds, when are you planning to act?"
As soon as he spoke, everyone was startled.
The next moment.
Everyone rushed to the table, each grabbing a glass of water.
One person, pretending to be clumsy, knocked over a glass of water!
Splash!
The water spilled all over the floor.
It's known that the system prepared exactly the right amount of water for everyone, one glass per person, no extras.
If one glass was spilled, someone would inevitably be left without, and after the 30-second countdown, that person would be obliterated by the system!!
And the only person without a glass now was Chen Ye.
The one who spilled the glass glanced at Chen Ye with a smirk, then raised his own glass to drink.
However!!
The next moment.
The person froze.
Because.
His glass was completely empty.
Where's the water??
He quickly looked around and finally saw where the water went...
The glass of water that belonged to him was eerily floating in mid-air, then quickly poured into Chen Ye's mouth.
Only Chen Ye's telekinesis could do this!!
Chen Ye drank it in one gulp, smacked his lips, and remarked, "No taste, just regular tap water!"
But Chen Ye knew that drinking this glass meant drinking a curse.
A curse from an evil spirit!
"You...you drank my water?" The person was both shocked and furious, glaring at Chen Ye with eyes like burning coals.
Chen Ye calmly replied, "No! Your glass was already knocked over by you!!"
"I'm going to kill you!!"
That person, filled with venomous hatred, shouted and charged at Chen Ye.
In response, Chen Ye merely raised his hand slightly...
Buzz!
Telekinesis activated.
Instantly, an invisible force ensnared the attacker.
He felt like he was trapped in a swamp, unable to move, let alone charge at Chen Ye.
"What...what have you done to me?" The person asked in horror.
Chen Ye smiled and said, "I've always wondered how the system obliterates someone. You can show us today!"
Just as he finished speaking, the person opposite let out a sudden scream, his face changing dramatically, as if in extreme pain.
The 30-second countdown had ended, and the system was obliterating him!
Then, his body began to slowly disintegrate...
Chen Ye wasn't wrong; it was indeed disintegration, like paper burning and turning to ashes.
True disintegration.
In just a few breaths, the person who spilled the water completely vanished, turning into a pile of ashes on the ground.
Everyone's face changed, feeling a deep fear for the system's power!
The system's voice timely announced:
"Attention: Task release!"
"Main Task: Survive for 72 hours!"
"Task Duration: 72 hours."
"Note: The curse from the evil spirit has begun. Good luck!"
This task was very simple: survive for three days.
There was no mention of punishment for failure...
Of course, failing this task naturally meant death, so no further punishment was needed.
The task had begun.
At this point, everyone should find a safe place to survive the task.
However, no one in the living room moved.
Chen Ye smiled lightly and said, "I'm in a hurry! If you don't make a move, I'm leaving!"
Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances and then dropped their pretenses, slowly closing in on Chen Ye, surrounding him.
"So, you saw through us from the start?"
"Shura, don't blame us, blame yourself for messing with the wrong people!"
"Shura, end it yourself! At least it'll be quick and painless!"
Chen Ye had no interest in their nonsense and responded indifferently, "You talk too much, can't you just get on with it?"
"Shura, you're courting death! Brothers, attack!!"
With that, most of the reincarnators rushed at Chen Ye.
Some, however, stepped back, hoping to take advantage of the chaos.
Clearly, these reincarnators, though banded together to kill Chen Ye, weren't truly united!
Buzz!
Telekinesis activated.
Countless blades flew from Chen Ye, cutting down the reincarnators.
Those who had just made it to the second floor of the Reincarnation Tower were not very strong, with most having a "D" rating. They lacked powers, and many didn't even possess special items.
Someone as powerful as Chen Ye was rare!
If they were stronger, they wouldn't rely on numbers to ambush Chen Ye.
Unfortunately.
Against absolute strength, numbers meant little!
These reincarnators, without any powers, couldn't withstand Chen Ye's flying blades.
"Slash! Slash! Slash!"
In one wave, over a dozen people fell to the ground, clutching their bleeding throats, staring at Chen Ye in disbelief.
They clearly hadn't expected Shura to be this strong.
So many of them couldn't even get close before more than half were dead!
The remaining survivors were terrified.
Then.
They fled without looking back...
