Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start-Chapter 272 - 159: Unleashing Fury, Unleashing Everything_2

Chapter 272: Chapter 159: Unleashing Fury, Unleashing Everything_2

"Rule found: Do not make eye contact with anyone for more than three seconds!"

A young man shouted with some relief.

Although it was unexpected, his team seemed to be fine.

The expressions of the others gradually relaxed as well. As long as they knew the rules, this Rule Zone was no longer as deadly and had become explored.

"So what are we waiting for? We can’t all stay here. Let’s quickly resolve this Rule Zone so we can move on to the others."

"Let’s go, let’s go, that guy called Fudong described this place as terrifying, which was a waste of time."

"Since we’ve figured it out, we don’t need so many people here, do we? We just need to destroy the core within the rules; having too many people is actually a disadvantage."

"Who cares? Who knows what the core of this Rule Zone is? I’ve been through one where the core was an ordinary resident. With more people, you can just bulldoze through. This Rule Zone doesn’t have too many restrictions; indiscriminate destruction is the safest method."

"Let’s wait a bit longer. Didn’t that Fudong not understand the meaning of the first rule either? What if it’s targeted at us?"

"Targeted? How... are you saying our secret might be that we’re not bound by the rules?"

"It’s not impossible. Didn’t that person named Lilia say they started losing members not long after entering, and losing members at the Golden Level isn’t that simple."

"Just as we discussed before, bulldoze through; we have more than ten Golden Upper Tier members, so even if there’s a rule penalty, we can tough it out."

"Let’s be cautious. It would be a shame if there were too many casualties; people like us will become fewer and fewer...."

Voices of discussion rose. Although they had discussed tactics countless times over the past few days, there was still controversy.

After all, different teams have different styles; some are conservative while others are aggressive, making it difficult to reach a consensus.

Charles didn’t stop them from talking, quietly waiting.

The Dawn Squad gradually reached a consensus; based on the rules they currently understood, bulldozing was definitely the right approach.

And according to the rule "can’t refuse other people’s requests," it’s best to move forward separately based on each squad’s characteristics.

Because if someone says, "Please don’t hurt me," others can decisively act to kill that person.

Even if they encounter a request like "Please protect me," if their teammates are decisive enough, they can kill the requester before the rule takes effect.

Protecting the living might be difficult, but protecting the dead isn’t much trouble.

Time continued to pass.

A member of a team, mostly with gloomy faces, was stunned.

The member in charge of receiving information and contacting teammates took out the communicator and was excited by the words on it.

Because they thought their teammate had died, but it seemed they were still alive and relayed almost the same information as the previous team, telling them not to make eye contact for more than three seconds.

This good news spread, significantly boosting the confidence of the surrounding Dawn Squad. After all, if they hadn’t died an hour in, this time was enough for them to bulldoze through.

Now, the only team feeling uneasy was the last one with no news.

But this time, the interval was short, and their communicator also showed a message. This time, the message was to report that they were safe but said the rules still needed more time, as they hadn’t discovered anything.

However, this was even more exciting, as none of the three members had died since entering.

Members of the Dawn Squad immediately decided to enter Night Town.

But at this moment, Charles, who had been listening with closed eyes, opened them. Magic Power filled his words, covering the agitated crowd.

"The rule is not clear yet; your teammates are already dead."

Charles stepped out, quickly speaking to the over a hundred people: "As for how I reached this conclusion, do you remember the information you saw at the Dawn Guild before coming here? This place might be more dangerous than I imagined."

Members of the Dawn Squad looked at each other, somewhat perplexed.

But soon, some quick-witted ones figured something out.

A young man asked, "Are you saying the information just now was deliberately sent by people inside?"

"That’s impossible!" The captain who first sent the message directly refuted, "Our squad has a special code for contact, and that information indeed had such a code, so the message was real."

The other two squads nodded in agreement, as no Dawn Squad that had survived to now was foolish.

They had special symbols known only to their squad to prevent being deceived when relaying messages.

And all three squads saw this symbol in the message, which is why they were sure their teammates were still alive.

The other Dawn Squads were similar. When forming the Dawn Squad, the Dawn Guild provided many precautions and manuals, which taught them how to survive more safely.

As a professional Dawn Squad, they were well-versed in these techniques.

Charles said with some helplessness, "The situation is different now. There’s someone inside who can ignore the rules, but they are still recognized by the rules. If you don’t believe me, ask those three to come out and try?"

The three squad leaders looked grim, all turning to the members responsible for communication.

The members quickly began contacting the three who had entered.

However, as the exchange continued, the three communicators’ faces gradually grew solemn.

They found that their teammates still responded to their messages, even fluently using various codes.

But...

The three seemed to be urging them to enter, and... were refusing to come out!

Seeing their expressions, the hearts of the three squad leaders began to sink.

The expressions in the eyes of other Dawn Squad members began to change as well, suggesting this Rule Zone seemed more terrifying than they had imagined!

As the sun on the horizon began to set, the three communicators gave up contacting their teammates.

Because... the other side had stopped replying.

It was as if they had found out their ruse had been exposed and simply didn’t bother to pretend anymore.

"If this were a normal Rule Zone, I wouldn’t have used high authority to summon you, so we need to carefully consider the strategy for Night Town."

Charles stated with a heavy tone: "For this, I need you to follow my arrangements. I’ve been in this Rule Zone for half a month, and I believe no one knows it better than me. What do you think?"

Members of the Dawn Squad looked to their leaders, waiting for their decision.

For a moment, the area fell into silence.

Lilia looked at Charles with a grave expression. Baiyi had not warned her of Charles’s danger, just told her not to leave the Dawn Squad’s sight.

And now... she was glad she had listened to her leader.

At the same time, she was a bit worried because she had a teammate hidden in the mayor’s house inside the Rule Zone, and if what Charles said was true, that teammate might be in grave danger. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After a brief silence, Tyler spoke up first, "We’re willing to listen, but we need to know why you’re making those arrangements during the process, not just blindly follow orders."

Charles smiled, "Of course, I want to avenge my teammates, not send you to your deaths."

Seeing no objections from the others.

Charles smiled and said, "First, we need to wait for the time to pass midnight. It’s already evening now. If the rules refresh while we’re inside, it’ll be troublesome. For now, everyone rest and recuperate."

Suddenly, a Golden Upper Tier, expressionless, stepped forward, an aura of menace surrounding him. He looked at Charles with restrained anger in his voice: "Did you use my teammates as pathfinders?"

The other two leaders also stepped forward; they were middle-aged and looked at Charles with a dangerous gaze.

Charles expressed some annoyance, "This is a necessary procedure. If you were leading this exploration, you’d do the same, wouldn’t you? I haven’t hidden any information from you."

The three leaders paused, the danger in their eyes subsided somewhat.

Before they could speak, Charles gestured, "However, since you all stepped forward, I must acknowledge that."

"After midnight, I’ll be the first to enter and verify the rules. Rather than arguing now, let’s think more about the rules I’ve mentioned."

After his words, the dissatisfaction in the three leaders’ eyes slowly disappeared.

The conflict quickly dissipated.
