The first competition drawn by Game Cave is whack-a-mole!

According to the rules, each side needs to send one person into a world full of gopher burrows. The goal is to kill the gophers that emerge from the burrows at random times and in random quantities. The side that kills the most gophers after the allotted time ends wins.

The rules are simple, but as reincarnators, they don't really think it's just a simple game like those in an amusement park.

First of all, there are definitely more caves than you might imagine, and the moles shouldn't be so easy to kill. Also, according to the description, there won't be just one mole at a time... So, it's best to choose someone who reacts quickly, strikes swiftly, has high attack power, and has area-of-effect attacks.

After a brief discussion, Alicia was chosen to represent the Shen tribe.

As an elf, she is naturally quick-witted and agile, with high water attribute. As for attack power, she primarily relies on magic, and its power and range are quite impressive; she should be able to win this round!

As for the Wu tribe, they sent out a rather stocky, muscular fellow.

The Shen clan members exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes meeting: "These guys seem to be strength-based... they don't seem well-suited for this whack-a-mole game... Do they know the hidden rules? Is there some deeper meaning behind their selection?"

Seemingly sensing Shen's concerns, Ural snorted and laughed, "The competitions in the Game Cave are endless, and each time they are drawn, they are all new. We have no experience, so we just decide on the participants based on the literal rules."

This rule was indeed in the Game Cave Heaven's rules and had been verified by the Manifestation Instrument. After considering it, the Shen Clan did not change their selection of participants.

After the choice was made, Alicia and the short, stocky Wu tribesman came to the chessboard and placed their hands on it.

Soon, the game world displayed the two people's names.

"Red team player, Alicia; Blue team player, Kamenk. Confirmed. The match is about to begin... Five, four, three..."

As the countdown reached zero, the two transformed into a beam of light and entered the chessboard.

This scene went unnoticed by the other people in the bar.

Both players looked towards the game cave and discovered that the chessboard had changed shape as the game began, eventually transforming into a simple valley. The valley was filled with hundreds of small, round holes, and the two players had been reduced to tiny, button-sized chess pieces.

"They've become pawns?" Ning Chengyu's eyes widened.

"No..." Ural shook his head: "This is just a projection to help us observe the battle situation. They are currently in a real canyon, which is wider and larger than the one on the chessboard."

As they were talking, both pieces on the chessboard moved backward, creating distance between them.

"What's wrong?" Zep asked, frowning.

"They must have just finished teleporting and realized they were too close, so they spread out to be on guard," Soros said, still fiddling with the cards while keeping his eyes on the chessboard.

Meanwhile, in the world within the cave, Alicia and Camenk are warily gazing at each other in the canyon.

It was a stormy night, and as lightning illuminated the canyon, countless burrows could be seen... Compared to the simple, regular holes on a chessboard, these burrows were more numerous, larger, and irregularly shaped, appearing densely packed and eerie. On the canyon walls, huge characters for 0-0 were carved, displaying the real-time score between the two players.

"Thunderstorms are to my advantage." Alicia felt the raindrops falling on her body, slowly raised her hands, and began to mobilize her elemental power.

On the other hand, the strong and muscular Kamenk made no move, but simply pulled out a huge warhammer, as if he really was going to whack a mole.

And soon, their target appeared!

Inside the bar, the chessboard that everyone was watching had changed!

About a distance from the two chess pieces, a groundhog emerged from a small hole. It was also a chess piece, about the size of a little fingernail, chubby and round, quite adorable.

The moment the mole appeared, both pieces moved!

Carmenk's piece leaped forward, swinging its hammer down. At the same time, Alicia's piece flashed with light and shot towards the gopher!

One is melee, the other is magic; it's clearly visible on the map.

It all comes down to who's fastest; the first gopher will be theirs!

However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations!

Alicia's beam was faster, but it didn't have much of an effect on the gopher pieces. Carmenk, who rushed in next, slammed his hammer down, but it only made the gophers take a step back. He himself was thrown back and spun twice in the air before landing!

That's amazing?

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment at the strength of the groundhog!

Meanwhile, inside the cave, Alicia and Carmenk were also stunned by the monster before them.

Beside that enormous cave stood a gigantic monster!

Standing upright, it was easily two stories tall, its body covered in thick black fur specks of frost, remnants of Alicia's recent ice magic. Its powerful limbs had two broken claws on its right paw, scars left by Kamenk's hammer. Its enormous head revealed two slightly curved tusks protruding from its mouth, resembling ivory; a long, thin tail swung behind it, occasionally emitting a sonic boom…

"This is... a groundhog?"

Both contestants were somewhat surprised. They had launched an attack as soon as they saw the shadowy figure appear, but they hadn't expected that such a monster would emerge!

It seems the game is a bit more difficult than they anticipated...

No problem, we just need to increase the attack power!

With that thought, Alicia formed a hand seal, and a magical wave shot into the sky, causing the dark clouds to churn and lightning to flash.

Sensing Alicia's ultimate attack, Carmenk didn't hesitate any longer. He swung his arms, raised his iron hammer, and charged forward first.

Seeing the enemy charging, the groundhog opened its blood-red maw, let out a shriek, and charged forward with its two fangs pointed directly at Kamenk!

Carmen let out a long hiss, spun around to dodge the fangs, and used the momentum of the spin to smash the hammer down on the back of the mole's head!

boom!

With this hammer blow, a burst of red light erupted, carrying immense power, smashing the enormous monster directly into the ground and turning the groundhog's head into a meat patty!

Carmenk chuckled as he secured the first kill, hoisted his sledgehammer, and turned to look at the rock wall, only to find that the score had changed from 0-0 to 1-1!

The other team scored too?

Kamenk looked at Alicia and saw the female elf with her hands clasped together. Not far away, a giant ground squirrel lay, its body charred black, and even the rain could not extinguish the soot on its body.

It turns out that just now, a second mole appeared, and at the very moment Carmenk slammed down his hammer, Alicia also summoned a lightning strike, and the two of them killed it at the same time!
