As the host had said before, he did not say anything “hypocritical” or “indirect.”
He told the players about his failure in the game …
“‘Losers’, there are two choices …” The host continued,”first, after the game is over, my subordinates will send you back to the boarding point, and then you can go do what you need to do.” He paused for a moment.”Second, you can choose to stay on the ship and accept my ‘protection’…” At this point, the corners of his mouth curled up into a meaningful smile.”No matter what is waiting for you outside, you don’t have to worry … As long as you stay with me, I can solve all similar problems for you and guarantee that your family and friends will not be dragged down by anything again.”
“But …” He suddenly changed the topic.”From now on, you will lose all your rights as a ‘human’. The ‘second half of your lives’ will be my ‘possession’, and I can squander and use it as I wish. ”
His words were loud and clear, and as soon as he finished speaking, the crowd below began to whisper one after another.
Greed, hesitation, impulsiveness, uneasiness, luck, excitement, self-confidence, overcautiousness … All kinds of emotions spread out from these “playthings” under the masks, intertwining and rising in the air.
The host stood on a high spot, silently watching these people’s reactions, enjoying all of this …
As a person who had seen hundreds of such “shows”, he could understand the emotions of those people through body language and other details, even through the mask.
As for him … He really liked this feeling of being high and mighty, looking down on all living beings.
For example, some people liked to travel, some people liked sports, and some people liked to watch movies … This organizer loved to watch this kind of drama the most.
For him … Material or physiological enjoyment could no longer satisfy him.
Delicious food, beautiful women, luxury houses, and luxury cars … These were things that most people might not even be able to get in their entire lives, and he had owned countless of them since he came to this world.
Although he was still young, he had long been numb to these things.
Food, wine, beautiful women … He didn’t hate these things, but … These things no longer made him feel “excited”.
He had tried many forms of entertainment, from the lower class to the middle-class and the rich, and then to the officials and the rich; In the end, he naturally tried something that the law could not tolerate …
For more than a year, the organizer was even passionate about “hunting the living.”
The appearance of this interest was also a coincidence …
One day, when the host was 18 years old, he embarked on a “suicidal journey” with a few netizens he met on the internet who had suicidal intentions.
At that time, he had been hanging out on some “suicide websites” out of interest. He had disguised himself as an ordinary high school student who had been bullied in school.
Along with him, there were two 30-year-old men, a middle-aged gambler who had lost his wife and son, and a female college student who was abandoned after being kept.
That morning, the host drove the car that he claimed to have “stolen from home” and brought his four “companions” to a mountain.
At first, the atmosphere between the few of them was quite harmonious.
The organizer was in a good mood. He was looking forward to seeing the reactions of those who committed suicide before they died.
Just like that, at 11 am, they arrived at a deserted place deep in the mountains.
As soon as they got out of the car, the host excitedly began to urge everyone to commit suicide.
However, that gambler proposed … That he wanted to be a ‘ghost who would die of hunger’ and eat his fill before he set off.
After he said that, the two old-timers quickly agreed, and the female college student did not have any objections. Helplessly, the host took out the food in the car and distributed it to these people.
However, as they ate, the gambler started to mumble sentimentally again. He said that when he was the richest, he had everything. Back then, he ate lobster for every meal, but now that he was about to die, he could only eat crispy noodle snacks here.
When he said this, the two old-eating clan members said,”you’re too much. At least you were once glorious, and we were still virgins.” Then, they complained about their parents ‘lack of achievements and the unfairness of society … They also said that they were blind when they were reincarnated and that they deserved to live a bitter life because they were born in a poor family. Life was hopeless, and so on.
The host was disgusted by such a LOW-class argument and almost vomited the snacks he had just eaten. However, in order to play the role of a ‘suicide’, he had to pretend to echo these guys.
Finally, at oneo’ clock in the afternoon, this group of people had their fill.
At this time, the host planned to incite them to go on the road again.
Unexpectedly … One of the two old-timers suddenly said,”if I don’t want to die, I’ll still be a Virgin.” Then, he shamelessly proposed that the female college student should go to the wilderness with him and have sex before dying.
This kind of request, even a person who wanted to commit suicide would not agree. The female university student was not to be trifled with. She immediately scolded the old man and said extremely unpleasant things … In short, she scolded him in all aspects, such as his appearance, ability, character, financial strength, etc., As if she wanted to vent her anger on him.
The old man was instantly enraged and lost his mind. He pounced on the other party on the spot, cursing her with the word “B * tch”(sorry, the two Chinese words will be blocked). He even planned to violate the other party in front of everyone.
The other old man and the gambler wanted to stop him, but when they saw the young body under the torn clothes of the female university student, they stopped.
A primitive instinct quickly suppressed their rationality. The two of them only exchanged a look, and then went from watching from the sidelines … To participating.
The host, who was standing at the side, saw this scene … After a brief silence, he smiled.
This was the first time he was so close to the dirtiest part of human nature. He suddenly realized that … This might be the toy that he had been looking for.
…………
That day, the female university student did not die, nor was she violated.
When she saw the three men pressing her down on the ground, she cried out in despair …
With a “bang,” the middle-aged gambler’s skull was knocked open.
Brain matter and blood spurted out, causing the woman on the ground to scream with all her might. It also made the two old nibbling tribe members stop their violent actions instantly, and they sat on the ground in fear.
When they came back to their senses, they found that the “bullied weak student” was standing there expressionlessly with a blood-stained shovel.
This was obviously not the first time the organizer had killed someone.
For him, it was not difficult to experience the feeling of ‘killing’… So he had already experienced it.
First, he used a gun, then a knife, and finally, his bare hands … He tried all kinds of killing experiences according to the psychological burden of killing people.
So today, he very cleanly and as if nothing had happened, he smashed the man’s skull.
A minute later, the old nibbling tribe member who had started the assault got up from the ground and ran into the forest. As for the other … Looking at the approaching host, his legs were so weak that he couldn’t stand, and he even peed his crotch.
The organizer knocked him to death from the front, then … Turned around and came to the female university student.
“Do you want to kill that person just now?”
With a smile on his face, he put a coat over the man and asked him this question.
His smile and words at that time still remained in that woman’s mind.
After a moment of shock and hesitation, she gave a definite answer …
And so, that day became the host’s first “hunting” day.
At dusk, the two of them finally tracked down the exhausted “prey” and killed it under a tree only ten meters away from the road.
After that day, the female university student returned to her own life. She had never told anyone about what had happened that day …
After that, the organizer began a year-long “hunting activity.”
For this interest, he directly asked his subordinates to run a suicide website at night and pretend to be people with suicidal tendencies, constantly looking for prey for him.
During that period, he had to “hunt” two to three times a week.
What made the organizer feel ironic was that none of these so-called “suicide trips” had been “successful.” He had not even seen a person who had completed the suicide.
He could also tell that … A person who would really commit suicide would not need to find a group of people to go with him. He would do it at home. And those who were attracted to him and became his prey did not have the courage to face life, nor the courage to end their own lives.
In the hunting activities that followed, the organizers had witnessed the nature of people when they were close to death. The same thing had happened to him during his first suicide trip. Of course, there were also many other strange situations.
Every time, the host could find a lot of fun. In his own words …”In addition to watching the show, you can also exercise.”
About half of the “prey” that he had chased before had died. As for the other half … They survived. From then on, they never had the thought of committing suicide again. In fact, many of the survivors had a turning point in their lives.
Perhaps this also meant that when someone’s attitude towards life changed, life would also change in response.
…………
In any case, after a year and three months, the hunting days were over.
Because the organizer … Used “hunting” as an opportunity to come up with an even more interesting game.
When he was hunting; the people he met were almost all from the bottom of the society; As time went by, the type of prey would become singular, and it was inevitable that there would be a sense of repetition; There were many times when the performance of a few prey gave him a sense of deja vu. Their reactions to various situations were very similar.
The organizer hated the lack of novelty the most. He needed something new.
Therefore, after some hard thinking, the organizer came up with a model, which was the prototype of today’s “show”…
They used money to gather a large group of people who were or used to be in the middle and upper classes of society, and let them compete with each other through some kind of “game” to win and make a comeback, while the losers would be consigned to eternal damnation.
Such a design would allow him to see … See the faces of those so-called “successful people” in certain extreme situations.
In the end … The first event was a “great success”(from the point of view of the organizer).
Even the host himself was surprised by the actions of these “elites.” He was surprised to find that these people generally had a lower bottom line than the lower class people, and they had the courage to cross the line.
At this point, the host finally decided that … Organizing and watching such a performance was his ultimate “entertainment.”
Even if he had to pay a high price every time, he felt that it was worth it …
…………
“I think … Everyone should be able to understand what I’m saying, right?” Two minutes after the last sentence, the host spoke again,”if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask now.”
“May I ask …”
At this moment, someone really raised his hand to ask a question.
It was a man wearing a Golden Mask with a crying face. His voice was loud and clear, and it was very ear-piercing. His body was also tall and strong … In addition to his height of nearly 1.9 meters, he also had strong muscles that could not be hidden even in a suit.
“What do you mean by ‘squandering and using’?” The man asked the question that many people wanted to ask.”For example … Do I have to kill people if you ask me to?”
“Yes.” The host replied without thinking.
This answer made the crowd clamor again.
“Then …” At this time, another man with a beer belly and a Beijing Opera mask raised his head and asked in a deep voice,”after you ordered the murder, will you guarantee the safety of the person who killed for you?”
The host heard this and smiled.””Not necessarily.”
“What?” The short and fat man questioned,”what do you mean by not necessarily?”
“Do you still need to ask?” The next second, Feng bujue, who was standing in the corner, cut in before the host could.”After you shoot someone dead, will you throw the gun away immediately or take it with you and use it again next time?”
His sudden question caught the chunky man off guard.””This …”
“There’s nothing much to think about. The answer is ‘depends on the situation’.” Feng bujue replied,”if it’s convenient, you can take it. If not, you can throw it away.”
“Hehehe …” At that moment, the host laughed again. He took over brother Jue’s words and said,”this gentleman is right … A person who’ has become my possession ‘is no different from a’ thing ‘to me, and I will not make any promises to a’ thing ‘.”
“But … At least for the current us, you will still keep your promise … Right?” The Golden-masked man asked.
“Ha … Of course,” At this moment, the host sneered under his mask.”Everyone … Are my ‘guests’.”
