Survival Arena

Chu Ge's head peeked out from behind a wall, curiously eyeing the sign for "Kabukicho Ichiban Street" across from him.

He had heard a lot about this street and had long wanted to take a look.

Unfortunately, as a Survival Entity, he didn't dare get too close.

Kabukicho only bustled at night, and its current desolation was precisely why he could sneak his way there.

He stared silently, lost in thought.

"Survival Team 'Rashomon' successfully annihilated Survival Team 'Survive'!"

Chu Ge was startled awake.

He silently mourned for 'Survive'.

He hadn't expected that team to escape the fate of being wiped out.

It was truly pitiful.

Without much thought, he looked around carefully and then started to move.

He needed to leave a scent trail everywhere, creating marks for his teammates to follow.

Cough cough.

Defecating in public is uncivilized behavior and shouldn't be emulated.

For the next while, he searched throughout Tokyo Metropolitan Central.

Until five in the afternoon, he hadn't encountered a single Survivor.

He hid behind a small truck near a snack shop. After prying open the back door, he jumped into the cargo area, tore open a box, and began eating the hot dogs and bread inside.

Deliciousness.

If he'd known it was this good, he would have come sooner!

While Chu Ge was feasting, a noise came from behind him.

He turned to look and froze.

A white tiger appeared outside the cargo area, quite imposing but still a size smaller than Chu Ge.

The white tiger was also stunned, not expecting to find a beast bigger than itself in the truck.

As a lion and a tiger locked gazes, the atmosphere turned awkward.

The white tiger's face twisted fiercely as it spoke in a deep voice, "Get out. I've claimed this truck, and if you don't want trouble or to die, scram now!"

Having said that, it lifted its right paw and swiped at the truck's iron railing, cutting through it as if it were mud.

Like cutting through iron as if it were mud!

Chu Ge raised his eyebrows, not sure what to say.

This guy was pretty cocky!

In that case!

Let's see who is stronger!

Chu Ge directly pounced at it.

With a bang!

The white tiger was tackled down by him, and as they grappled and rolled together, they moved five or six meters. Suddenly, Chu Ge's body burst into Raging Flame Separation.

"Roar—"

The white tiger howled in pain, its cries echoing through the streets hundreds of meters around.

Chu Ge quickly bit down on its neck.

Crack!

The white tiger's neck snapped!

"You have successfully hunted an enemy and gained 200 Survival Points."

"Since this Survivor had already hunted nine enemies, you gain an additional 900 Survival Points."

Chu Ge immediately fled. Not long after his departure, a group of Tokyo Police Officers rushed to the scene.

The tiger's roar was deafeningly loud, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Area had been under strict police patrol recently, which is why the officers were able to respond so quickly.

They were stunned upon seeing the burning corpse of the white tiger.

What happened here?

Elsewhere.

Chu Ge quickly escaped to another street and hid.

He was secretly shocked at the speed of the Tokyo Police Officers—too fast!

It seemed that the Tokyo Metropolitan Area had entered a state of alert.

The night would probably be chaotic.

Chu Ge thought for a moment, then walked towards a five-story residential building nearby.

He swiftly climbed up, leaping from one window sill to the next until he reached the roof.

He lay underneath a clothes rack, using the hanging clothes to conceal his body.

He began to rest, quietly waiting for night to fall.

For animals, night was actually safer, as humans had a harder time spotting them.

...

Sunset gave way to moonrise.

Evening arrived, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Area came alive. Neon lights sparkled, and the distant Tokyo Tower also emitted a dazzling light, stunningly beautiful.

Chu Ge stood on the rooftop, surveying the nearby blocks.

Less than five hours remained until twelve o'clock.

The Hearts of the City from various teams should have been making their way to the city center one after another.

Chu Ge wondered if their team's Heart of the City had picked up his scent.

He waited patiently.

He believed that as twelve o'clock drew closer, there would certainly be a commotion.

Time continued to pass.

It was about nine o'clock.

"Awoooo—"

A wolf howl suddenly pierced the roar of city cars from a distance in the west.

Chu Ge narrowed his eyes and immediately headed in that direction.

At the same time, many citizens were frightened.

"Was that a wolf howl just now?"

"Are there wolves?"

"Tch, it turns out the recent news was true!"

"What should we do? Should we go home?"

"What are you afraid of? With so many people around, the wolves should be the ones that are scared."

"Makes sense."

The sea of people in the city center was not panicked, just curious.

Even some people headed towards the direction of the wolf howl.

Being nosey is not only a hobby for Huaxia people; there are also many in The Island Nation who love to join the crowd.

Chu Ge walked through the dark alley, his gaze fixed ahead.

The street outside was bright, filled with a group of citizens walking briskly, as if heading to a market.

"Boss!"

A voice suddenly called out.

Chu Ge immediately stopped, turned his head, and saw General Lie Hao suddenly appear in front of a wall.

This guy was just in a state of Change Color.

Chu Ge asked curiously, "How come you're here? Could it be you are..."

General Lie Hao was silent.

He didn't know how to answer.

The rules of survival didn't allow him to reveal his identity.

"What do you plan to do next?" Chu Ge asked in a different way.

He had already figured out that General Lie Hao was the Heart of the City.

This guy was not weak, but his size was rather conspicuous, which might not be a good thing when being the Heart of the City.

In Chu Ge's mind, the most suitable candidates for the Heart of the City were Gu Tianjiao and Xiao Hero.

General Lie Hao shook his head and said, "I have no plans for now. I want to see after twelve o'clock."

Chu Ge nodded. There were too many people in the metropolitan area now; the numbers would decrease after twelve o'clock.

"Let's hide here then," Chu Ge instructed, and then he crouched down beside the wall, directly entering a state of Change Color.

General Lie Hao also stepped back, changed color, and followed suit.

"Boss, could you tell me..." General Lie Hao began to speak.

But before he could finish, Chu Ge interrupted, "We can talk about these matters later. Right now, we have to hunt."

General Lie Hao immediately shut his mouth.

The two fell into silence, waiting for any Survivors to pass by.

About thirty minutes went by.

A Black Snake suddenly rushed at high Speed, heading for the street outside the alley.

Chu Ge sprang into action, slamming down a paw that was searing hot, slicing the Black Snake in two.

The Black Snake emitted a painful hiss. Chu Ge swung his paw again and crushed its head underfoot.

"You have successfully killed an enemy and earned 200 Survival Points."

There was no extra point reward, which meant this guy had most likely been playing it safe all along.

Chu Ge sighed inwardly.

Just then.

An indifferent female voice rang out again, "Since you have killed three Hearts of the City, you are eligible to become a Heart of the City. Would you like to become the Heart of the City?"

"You have ten minutes to decide. Failure to respond will be taken as a refusal."

This guy was a Heart of the City?

Chu Ge was stunned, staring at the corpse of the Black Snake, lost in thought.

"Boss, what's wrong? Are you poisoned?"

General Lie Hao asked worriedly. Hearing this, Chu Ge snapped back to reality.

He shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm fine."

He turned and retreated back, while in his heart, he chose to become the Heart of the City!
