Global End, I Awaken the Unique Rank Speedrun Dungeon

The carriage was deathly silent.

After the silence came an even more turbulent outburst.

Fear, panic, confusion, excitement, hesitation...

The apocalypse—such an unfamiliar term, yet now it lay starkly before their eyes.

Zhuang Yu ignored the cacophony of noise at the scene; those who were roaring, crying, and screaming would soon die here.

He looked up at the top of the carriage, where a virtual screen had appeared out of nowhere.

In the very center is a mysterious person wearing an octopus headgear and a standard suit.

Each instance will be managed by a single supervisor.

The hunter in this "Train Dungeon" is the octopus-headed creature mentioned above.

"Everyone."

It said, "Please be quiet. Before the instance officially begins, I hope you can understand the rules."

The noise below disappeared, forcibly eliminated by an unknown force.

"It's an honor to be the supervisor of your initial instance. If possible, I'd actually like to be your friend."

"Unfortunately, you will all die here, turning into rotten flesh teeming with flies and insects, or walking 'evil spirits'."

"And I, who killed you, will inevitably have my hands stained with sin..."

"Enough of that digression. Now, please read the rules for this instance."

Zhuang Yu looked at the control panel.

The contents recorded above were exactly as he had expected, without any changes.

"A boring trick."

[Large-scale instance: The Train]

Phase 1: Screening

[Rule 1: At the start of the game, everyone will have the right to vote for a 'scapegoat'. Each person can only vote once. The person with the most votes at the end of the game will be eliminated.]

[Rule 2: If the 'scapegoat' ticket is not used by the end of the time limit, the holder will die immediately.]

Rule 3: Not yet enabled

The rules are very simple, so simple that you just need to cast your vote to pass this round.

The key question is, who should we vote for?

Zhuang Yu focused his gaze on the regulator, wondering what expression lay beneath the "headgear" that resembled a real octopus.

Is it sympathy, as it claims, or mockery?

The forces behind the regulators, and where they came from, remain unanswered even ten years after the apocalypse.

Zhuang Yu only knew that the regulators were divided into seven factions.

They are 'pride', 'envy', 'wrath', 'sloth', 'greed', 'gluttony', and 'lust'.

If Zhuang Yu wasn't mistaken, the octopus-headed hunter in front of him should be a junior hunter from the 'Arrogance' faction.

The carriage was eerily quiet. Someone wanted to say something, but their mouth seemed to be taped shut, and they could only stare wide-eyed in astonishment as they read the rules of the game.

Zhuang Yu noticed a countdown timer on the panel.

10:00

9:59

9:58

People were surprised to find that they could speak again after the countdown began.

They frantically bombarded the octopus head on the screen with all sorts of questions.

The latter clasped his hands together, his figure half-hidden in the shadows, watching them silently without uttering a word.

"It's started! The dungeon has started!" someone exclaimed. "Don't you understand? The end of the world is coming! We're all doomed!"

Zhuang Yu stood in the aisle at the back of the carriage, coldly scanning the crowd before opening the control panel.

[Participant: Zhuang Yu]

[Sequence: Not yet enabled]

Status: Good

This is all the information we can see for now.

The sequence can only be awakened after the divine blessing ends.

If you are not blessed, or if your chance to be blessed is taken away, then you can only obtain the awakening opportunity by clearing the dungeon.

Furthermore, sequences that are not divinely blessed and awakened generally have lower potential.

The sequence that you awaken through your own divine blessing is the one that is most suitable for you!

"I lost the chance of divine blessing, but the sequence I awakened was the first-level sequence 'Ember Flame,' which is extremely strong even among first-level sequences."

"If I hadn't missed the chance for divine blessing, perhaps I could have awakened the unique first-level sequence!"

The sequence levels, from highest to lowest, are: unique, level 1, level 2, level 3, level 4, and level 5.

More than 60% of people awaken to the fifth level sequence, which is also the most common sequence.

Their abilities generally involve strengthening a specific part of the body and having a weak control over source energy; they will never possess power that involves 'rules'.

Only at the second-level sequence can 'rules' be involved; the first-level and unique sequences are even less likely to be involved.

However, only the unique first-order sequence, as the name suggests, possesses uniqueness.

It is impossible for two identical unique sequence to exist simultaneously in the world.

The lower levels of the sequence can be awakened by multiple people.

"Unique level, with no more than thirty in the world, including America's Kleiner's 'Forbidden Law' and China's number one war god's 'Arena of Life and Death'."

It would be a lie to say that Zhuang Yu didn't find it interesting.

Those who possess the unique-level sequence almost all become War God-level powerhouses, with the best among them even surpassing the War God.

Those who didn't become the God of War were all pitiful creatures who died on the path to becoming warriors.

......

Cheng Qingxue looked at the silent Zhuang Yu, her lips slightly moving.

She wanted to know who to vote for as the scapegoat.

According to the rules of the game, the 'scapegoat' vote is mandatory; otherwise, you will die.

To vote is to personally take someone else's life.

Whom do you want to vote for?

Cheng Qingxue was startled and met Zhuang Yu's indifferent gaze: "Hmm."

"Vote for the person you hate most in this carriage; after all, you have no choice."

Zhuang Yu's words lingered in my ears like a demonic chant.

Cheng Qingxue's throat bobbed, and a flash of fear crossed her eyes.

After saying this, Zhuang Yu looked at the crowd ahead; half of the countdown had already passed.

People have already voted.

On the screen, several names appeared below the octopus head.

[He Tian: 15]

[Chu Yunxiu: 1]

He Tian is the old man in front of Zhuang Yu.

His public beating of Cheng Qingxue, coupled with his extremely poor manners, makes it unsurprising that he received the most votes.

Zhuang Yu had previously determined that everyone's "choice" was to vote for He Tian.

As for the other person...

"Who voted for me? Do I even know you?!" a man yelled at the crowd. "What did I ever do to deserve this? You want to get me killed?!"

This person was Chu Yunxiu, the same man who had been sitting behind Zhuang Yu, whispering sweet nothings to his girlfriend.

Unlike He Tian, ​​who was crying and shouting that he was wronged, he didn't know anyone on the train except for his girlfriend Chen Nuannuan.

When he saw that he had been voted a scapegoat, his heart would have jumped out of his chest if He Tian hadn't been standing in front of him.

"The scapegoat should have the right to know."

The regulator said with a slightly joking tone, "Currently, only one person has voted for Chu Yunxiu: Chen Nuannuan."

Chu Yunxiu looked at his girlfriend in astonishment. The latter was panicked, not expecting the regulators to publicly vote on who should vote.

"You bitch, you're trying to ruin me?!"

Caught red-handed in public, Chen Nuannuan simply stopped pretending: "So what? Don't you know why I voted for you?"

"If your family didn't have some dirty money, do you think I'd be with a pervert like you? The thought of licking your toes makes me sick!"

Snapped!

Chen Nuannuan covered her face: "You hit me? You dare hit me!"

"I'm going to beat you up, you bitch!"

"Ha, fine, let's get this straight today, I'm only after your money!"

"But if the apocalypse comes, all your money will be worthless. Whoever wants to live with you can live with you, but I'm not going to!"

"Oh, and also, actually, before I slept with you yesterday, I already slept with Chu Dayong, your mentally challenged brother. He's much better than you!"
