The Game Master, Graham Loch, stood in front of all the players in the meeting hall.
Near the ceiling, hundreds of cameras recorded every angle.
Today, the second round of the tournament starts.
"Some of you might've found hints that tell the context of the second round, but most of you don't." The Game Master started with.
"Now, I'll tell you what the second round is about."
All around the world, everyone perked up their ears as they waited in anticipation for the Game Master's announcement.
"The second round is Battle Royale." The Game Master snapped his fingers, and suddenly a holographic map materialized in front of everyone, revealing the designated battleground for the intense Battle Royale.
"500 teams will drop on each of these islands, but only 50 will survive through to the third round."
