Doomsday Game 1

Chapter 1: Reincarnation World

click…


It sounded like the sound of an iron chain knocking lightly on the iron door.

Lin Yue, who was drowsy, was awakened by this sudden sound and opened his eyes with a jerk.

He was sitting in a narrow cabin with tiny windows on all sides. Looking out of the window directly opposite, Lin Yue could see several rusty steel bars being attached to the cabin he was in, which, in turn, was slowly moving upward.

It’s a Ferris Wheel.

This Ferris Wheel’s cockpit is tattered, a few years old.

The green paint has long flaked off, revealing a large piece of rusted iron, the glass is gray, covered with a thick layer of dust which has not been wiped for many years, the door of the cockpit is only hanging with a small chain, the cockpit swayed lightly with the wind, the door on the section of the chain is also rhythmically knocking on the iron door.

Suddenly waking up in such an odd place, Lin Yue only felt like he was dreaming.


Why is he here……?


Isn’t he already dead?


Lin Yue remembered clearly – when he was on a riot control mission, he was surrounded by six thugs and stabbed 23 times in the chest and abdomen, each of which left a deep impression on him.


He still remembered how much pain he was in before he died.


His alveoli were punctured, he breathed heavily, his lungs didn’t obey him, suffocation wrapped around him, the rapid loss of blood made him feel cold, and even the summer sun could not make him feel a trace of warmth……


The more Lin Yue recalled his own murder, the more his head felt a tingling sensation!


Then, some cold memories invaded his brain.


When this information was poured into Lin Yue’s brain, in just a moment, he understood his current situation.


Lin Yue was indeed dead.


The place he was in now was called [Reincarnation World], and only the dead could reach it.


The [Reincarnation World] consists of countless small worlds, each of which is a different kind of end world.


And people like Lin Yue are called [Reincarnators].


His mission is to travel through one post-apocalyptic world after another, struggling to survive with his only life.


As for why you want to live, and what benefits you can get from living …… There is actually no explanation.


Experience endless reincarnation in the midst of the post-apocalyptic world?


Lin Yue was silent for a long time.


If there is really a hell in the world, this [Reincarnation World] is that hell, right?


And usually people who have died once cherish their lives even more.


Even if it is reincarnation in hell, it is better than complete extinction.


At least, this is what Lin Yue thinks.


Lin Yue wiped the dust off the glass on his left side with his hand, and he saw that the turquoise blue sky displayed a few sentences——


[You have entered the world of reincarnation – Crazy Amusement Park.]


[This world is a newcomer world, and the total number of reincarnators is 10.]


[Your mission is to stay alive in the amusement park, target time: 4 hours.]


[Kill 9 other reincarnators and you will end the world early.]


[You have been given a reincarnator card, which will assist you in surviving. The reincarnator card has been placed in your left trouser pocket, please check it.]


[Devouring the cards of other reincarnators will replenish your card and also upgrade it.]


These are just some basic rules.


But it did not mention what kind of danger there would be in this world.


Touching his left trouser pocket, Lin Yue pulled out a gray card from his pocket, the card was the size of a playing card, with a box drawn on the front and the four black words “storage space (储存空间)” written on the back. 


Lin Yue couldn’t help but have the idea of it now, the gray card in his hand immediately shattered into a bit of golden light, converging on Lin Yue’s left hand middle finger, turned into a black ring.


Touching the ring gently, a line appeared in front of Lin Yue’s eyes –


[Your storage space is empty. Remaining space: one cubic meter.]


Lin Yue took off his shoes, tried to stuff them into the storage space ring, and then took them out again.


This card, indeed, can store items at will and it is easy to use.


Lin Yue thought about it, a cubic meter of space can not store too many things.


If you only put food and water, it will only last for about a month.


However, with this storage space, it can still save a lot of energy and unnecessary trouble.


Unfortunately, this card does not enhance Lin Yue’s combat ability.


But if we talk about fighting ability, he is a soldier after all, he has fought on the battlefield for five years, and he can fight four untrained adult men with his bare hands, he still has the ability to protect himself.


Lin Yue sat steadily inside the Ferris Wheel, with a good view of the high altitude, he observed the nearby terrain.


This is a dilapidated amusement park, even if it is now noon time, the sun’s light is most abundant, the entire amusement park also exudes a decadent and gloomy atmosphere.


In addition to the Ferris Wheel, the amusement park has many other attractions: a haunted house, a shooting range, a roller coaster, a merry-go-round, a puppet theatre, and a circus.


The entire amusement park has only one entrance/exit, and after discerning the orientation through the sun’s shadow, Lin Yue determined that the orientation of that entrance/exit was due north.


Lin Yue glanced at the sentences in the sky again, the mission prompt clearly pointed out that the reincarnator’s range of activity could only be within the amusement park.


There was a door but no way out, and that gate was really a deadly temptation to place there.


The Ferris wheel reached its apex and began to slowly descend.


Lin Yue checked all the pockets on his clothes.


He was still wearing the same black riot uniform, but the chili water in his pocket, tactical daggers, rubber batons, communicators …… all disappeared.


The only thing left was the half pack of cigarettes in his right trouser pocket.


Pinching half a packet of cigarettes, Lin Yue searched for a long time but didn’t  find a lighter.


He sighed and stuffed the cigarettes back into his trouser pocket.


And just after he stuffed the cigarettes back, Lin Yue suddenly heard a sound.


The sound was brittle, like a glacier cracking.


Without waiting for Lin Yue to have a slightest reaction, a strong wind blew by and the Ferris wheel cabin began to sway violently!


Lin Yue couldn’t control his momentum and fell to the left, he hurriedly reached out to press the hatch on his left side, intending to stabilize his body.


But unexpectedly, when his hand pressed on the hatch, Lin Yue not only did not get support, he also fell out of the cabin!


Under his push, the hatch was neatly split, and the entire door, along with the steel plates at the joint, were all separated from the cabin. The four “walls” in the cabin were so short!


Luckily, Lin Yue was agile, before falling out of the cabin, Lin Yue used his other hand to grip the window frame behind him, so he didn’t fall.


And the cabin was still shaking violently!


 Lin Yue firmly grasped the window frame with both hands, barely maintaining his balance.


As soon as he stabilized, the sound of ice cracking sounded again.


Lin Yue had a hunch that after this sound, there would definitely be another “wall” falling down.


In order to share the risk, Lin Yue moved out a hand, respectively grabbed a window frame and another hatch.


As it turns out, his choice was correct!


Just as he grabbed the hatch, the left hand side of the “wall” with a small window also cracked neatly and fell to the ground.


Immediately after, without giving Lin Yue any chance to breathe out, the hatch he was holding on to in his right hand also cracked!


Lin Yue no longer counted on the last remaining “wall”, he crouched down and held the cabin seat.


The seat was slippery, and without the bulkhead for support, the seat became very unstable.


With the cockpit shaking, the seat also swayed uncontrollably like a boat in the sea.


Lin Yue glanced outside the cabin and estimated the current height.


There are still about ten meters.


Just hold on a little longer and you’ll be safe!


Just when he was thinking this, he suddenly felt the area under his feet empty, his whole body fell downwards violently!


Damn, it’s the floor this time!?


The floor of the cabin also collapsed, and the entire steel plate fell, colliding with several other cabin fragments below, emitting an ear-piercing metallic crash.


The seat Lin Yue was holding was thus unsupported and rolled down from the air.


Fortunately, Lin Yue reacted in time and instinctively raised his arms during the fall, which allowed his left arm to hook the skeleton steel¹ of the cockpit, saving his life.


There was another cracking sound, and the last remaining “wall” also fell with a bang.


Now, the cabin was left only with a roof and a set of skeleton steel bars, with a fairly wide view.


Lin Yue glanced at his feet, he was still at least seven or eight meters above from the ground.


If he fell from this height, even if he didn’t die, he would be seriously injured or crippled.


Lin Yue hung on the steel bar, the muscles of his arms tensed, he pulled up, and with his long legs crossed, he easily climbed up the steel bar.


He separated his legs and stepped on different steel bars on his left and right feet, so that if one of the steel bars breaks again, he would still have a chance to quickly climb on another steel bar.


However, this time, Lin Yue’s thinking went in vain.


The Ferris Wheel test has ended!


Until it was close to the ground, those two steel bars remained stable, with no sign of breaking.


When he was only one meter high from the ground, Lin Yue leapt down with light movements and landed firmly on the ground.


And those falling steel plate pods, actually all disappeared at some point, the ground was empty, without any obstacles.


Lin Yue did not dare to stay near the Ferris wheel, he ran down the stairs in a few steps, and stood far away on the small square area in front of the Ferris Wheel.


Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.


He squinted at the Ferris wheel that was still spinning.


The other cabins were stable, only the Ferris Wheel cabin  No. 17 suddenly shook eerily.


Lin Yue’s heart sank.


No. 17 cabin shook a few times, the “wall” facing Lin Yue broke off in unison.


But the young boy in white in the cabin did not have the physical fitness and responsiveness of Lin Yue.


The young man fell out of the cabin.


A terrifying scream came out of the mouth of the teenager in white.


With a “bang” sound, the long scream came to an abrupt end.


The teenager fell to his death ten meters away from Lin Yue, his limbs twisted and his brain burst.


Bright red blood slowly flowed from the wound on the teenager’s head, staining the teenager’s white T-shirt bright red.


A line of blood-red words appeared in the sky——


[Reincarnator No.6, Mu Yun fell from a high-level and died. Number of reincarnators remaining: 9.]


Seeing such a fresh corpse, Lin Yue’s body began to stiffen.


His hands hanging at his side began to tremble uncontrollably and it became difficult to breathe.


As soon as he saw the blood, Lin Yue could not help but recall the five years he spent on the battlefield.


He had been a peacekeeper for five years, he and his compatriots left China and went to a country 10,000 miles away to help friendly countries resist foreign invasion.


In those five years, he was accompanied by various kinds of corpses every day.


A comrade whose legs were blown up by mines, comrades who had their heads blown off by grenades, comrades who had their chests blown off by RPGs, comrades who had their throats slit by daggers, comrades who were trapped in deformed armored vehicles and roasted alive……


Lin Yue was left with a deep fear.


On the battlefield, he didn’t even dare to sleep because every time he woke up, he might lose one or even many of his familiar comrades.


Moreover, he didn’t know if he would be the next one to die.


After five years on the battlefield and more than 1,800 days and nights, he worried almost every day that he would not see the sun tomorrow.


That kind of fear, ordinary people can not bear it even once in a lifetime.


In those five years, he had to endure this pain every day.


The resistance to death and bloodshed has penetrated deep into Lin Yue’s marrow.


After he retired from the battlefield, he immediately applied to become a domestic riot soldier, because the riot soldiers are relatively safe, they mostly deal with some ordinary civil disputes and rallies. As long as the political situation is stable, he will not see many dead people.


But he didn’t expect this job to make him negligent and careless.


He was once a lion on the battlefield.


But eventually he died in the hands of a group of gangsters like wild dogs.


And now, even if he is dead, he can’t get rid of the painful shadow left by the battlefield and those gangsters.


Lin Yue suffers from the typical post-war psychological syndrome.


Sensing that his emotions were starting to become unstable again, Lin Yue quickly took out the half-pack of cigarettes from his trousers pocket, slowly took out one, and put it in his mouth.


He is very addicted to smoking, because smoking calms his chaotic emotions.


However, there is no lighter at hand ……


Just when Lin Yue was feeling anxious about not being able to find a lighter, a handsome young man in black jumped down from a Ferris Wheel on the ground.


The Ferris Wheel in which the young man in black was riding on has also disintegrated, but he was much luckier than Lin Yue, his cabin still retained the floor and the two “walls”, so he was able to land unharmed.


The fresh corpse of the white-clothed young man just now lay twisted at the feet of the black-clothed youth. He just glanced at it calmly, he squatted down and put away the reincarnator card on the dead young man.


He was very calm, as if he was not seeing a bloody corpse, but a stone that can be found everywhere on the roadside.


After taking away the card, the young man in black ran down the steps quickly and also stood on the small square area.


He stopped three meters away from Lin Yue, held up the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his light brown eyes looked at Lin Yue through the lenses with interest.


Staring at Lin Yue for a few seconds, the youth’s eyes suddenly lit up, his eyes were like a pirate who found a mountain of treasure, revealing an inexplicable delight and affinity.


Feeling this odd look, Lin Yue narrowed his eyes and took a half step back, extra vigilant.


The young man in black with a bright smile on his face, noticed the cigarette in Lin Yue’s mouth, then he took out a golden zippo lighter from his own pocket and threw it to Lin Yue—


“Don’t have a lighter? I have it here.”


Lin Yue did not pick up the lighter, but took several steps back in shock, staying far away from the lighter.


Because this flying lighter instantly reminded him of the grenade that flew towards him on the battlefield.


The lighter landed on the ground.


But it did not explode.


Only then did Lin Yue feel relieved, walked over, picked up the lighter, and lit the cigarette in his mouth.


Although I don’t trust the young man in front of me very much, but for now, the most important thing is to stabilize my emotions.


Lighting the cigarette, Lin Yue threw the lighter back to the youth in black, thanking him.


After taking a few puffs, Lin Yue’s mood began to calm down, and the symptoms of breathing difficulties also eased.


And while Lin Yue was smoking, the handsome black-clad youth kept staring at Lin Yue, with a smile at the corners of his mouth and a glint in his eyes.


Finally, Lin Yue felt goosebumps by the youth’s stare.


He crushed the cigarette butts at his feet, frowned and asked the youth in black.


“Why do you keep looking at me like this?”


The young man in black smiled gently.


He gently pressed a red button on the left temple of his black-framed glasses, and his ordinary mirror surface was immediately gilded with a faint golden light:


“Because my reincarnator card is ‘Data Analysis’. The combat power of an ordinary adult male is 5, but your combat power is 16, which is ridiculously strong. Before I understand the situation, I don’t think there is any need for us reincarnators to kill each other, so are you willing to cooperate with me?”


Cooperation?


Scanning the figure of the young man in black, Lin Yue estimated that his height should be around 185, he can see some muscle lines, his physical quality should also be okay.


Lin Yue also felt that before the situation is not clear, absolutely can not easily infight. After fighting on the battlefield for five years, he knew the basic truth that the more the more strength.


Then let’s cooperate!


Lin Yue extended a hand.


“OK. My name is Lin Yue.”


The young man in black also extended a hand to shake Lin Yue’s.


“My name is Feng Mo.”
