Chapter 249: Ruthless Character
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Some prisoners stood in a mountainous forest terrain on the edge of the Death Hunter island.
“Walk in front. Move faster, don’t dawdle!”
Two NPC prisoners wearing the prisoner identification bracelet of the Federation with many tattoos on their body walked forward carefully.
One of the prisoners was very tall and had a clear bullet wound on his chest. He aimed a black handgun he held in his hand at the other NPC prisoner walking several meters in front of him. This prisoner looked thin, weak, and nervous and was also wearing the bracelet. “Don’t try anything funny or I’ll really shoot you and kill you!” the prisoner with the handgun shouted fiercely.
At the same time, he turned to a slightly shorter but equally burly man beside him who held a dagger with a red glow and said, “Second brother, remain alert!”
“Sh*t, what is this stupid game? To actually have so many ruthless people and adventurers participate… There are even half man, half beast people! If it wasn’t for the fact that we can completely clear our names and get a new identity just for surviving, I would have never joined this crazy-*ss ‘game!’” As he spoke, the tall prisoner kept looking left and right.
After half a minute, the three prisoners reached the edge of the forest and entered a place that had a wider view.
“What’s this? Leader! Look! It looks like there’s a box over there!” The slightly shorter NPC prisoner suddenly fixed his gaze at something. He could see parts of a small silvery-white box on a plain just outside the forest.
“A supply box!” The eyes of the tall prisoner who was referred to as leader glowed.
“Finally. Because we didn’t dare open the map, we haven’t picked up even one supply box until now… leader, I’ll go bring it over!” The slightly shorter prisoner, a.k.a. “second brother,” held the dagger in his hands and headed towards the forest.
“No, stop!” The prisoner leader shook his head; at that moment, he seemed calmer than before. “Let Skinny Monkey go! Hurry, go and bring it over to me. If you dare try to escape, I’ll kill you with one shot. You know my marksmanship. It’s useless even if you hide in the bushes!” The prisoner leader aimed his handgun at the thin and weaker NPC prisoner, intimidating him.
“Leader Will, I’ll listen to whatever you say. Please do not shoot… I’ll go, I’ll go right now!” The thin and weak prisoner looked as pale as a drug addict. His body kept shaking, and he ran and crawled towards the position of the supply box.
“There are multiple dangerous creatures on this island!” the leader said to second brother. “Although this bush looks fine, and there doesn’t seem to be anyone hiding around so there should be no traps, it’s hard to say if there aren’t any mutated creatures hiding in the bushes. That’s why I made Skinny Monkey go. If he wants to live, he should show some value. Otherwise, I don’t think there’s a need to bring him along.”
The prisoner leader hid his body within the bushes in the forest while he stared at the panicking weaker prisoner who was walking towards the supply box.
“No wonder you promised to bring this weakling along back then. You were already preparing to use him as fodder!” The slightly shorter prisoner second brother had a look of realization on his face.
“If the other two fodders didn’t get killed when we encountered the half man half beast fella, there would be no need for us to use such a cowardly person.” the leader said. “It’s fine either way. Although there’s no way for a person like him to live till the end, he’s easy to manipulate!” The prisoner leader showed a savage smile.

“Oh, that’s right, leader, about the thing you promised me…” The prisoner “second brother” wore a slightly anxious expression.
“Relax… You’re not like him. Back then, if you didn’t help shoulder some of my convictions, I would have probably already been sentenced to death. That’s why, so long as I’m alive, I’ll bring you along to leave this island.” When the prisoner leader spoke, he sounded very sincere; however, in his eyes, there was a glint of ruthlessness.
At that moment, the thin prisoner had already picked up the supply box on the ground. He turned around excitedly and signaled to the other two prisoners that he had got the box.
“Leader Will, I’ve got the supply box…”
“What’s inside? Is there anything to eat?” Second brother couldn’t manage his hunger any longer.
“There’s food! There are cans of fish and beef, and then there’s also…” However, before the thin NPC prisoner could finish, his head exploded like a watermelon. Red blood and white brain matter spread all over the grass and the box.
Pang!
Just as he was shot through the head, the crisp sound of the gunshot that sounded like a beer being opened rang out and reached the ears of the two prisoners amidst the sound of the wind.
“F*ck. Leader Will, what should we do? This is really a f*cking trap! And there’s actually a Sniper nearby!” Prisoner second brother was in a panic.
“Why are you flustered? Since he didn’t fire at us, it means that he can’t reach our position. As long as we camp here and don’t go out, a Sniper wouldn’t dare to come here rashly!”
The prisoner leader was clearly a lot calmer. He clenched the handgun in his hand tightly and curled his body inside the bush while his eyes scanned and searched for the enemy’s position.
“Leader, we can’t stay here forever!”
“It’s already after 11.30 now. It’ll be 12 in little more than 20 minutes. By then, it will be the time for the ‘selection’ as mentioned by that black shirt instructor!”
“I haven’t killed a single person. You promised to let me kill Bill after a while, but now Bill has been killed by someone else. What should I do? Leader, let’s just run, open the map, and try to kill the people who have exposed their position. Otherwise, there won’t be enough time.”
Pang!
“Leader Will, you…” The prisoner called second brother looked bewildered as he looked at the hole in his chest that was bleeding profusely. He looked at the dagger he clenched tightly in his right hand, and then at the prisoner leader whose hand was holding the gun that still had smoke coming out of the barrel.
“There’s only a little time left. There’s not enough time to find the people who have accumulated enough points and are hiding now. And I don’t want to take too many risks to help you kill the people who are exposing their position at random! You should know that those people have already been pursued by multiple people. Even if I am confident in my ability, I wouldn’t be able to guarantee that I can help you kill anyone! That’s why it looks like I cannot keep my promise to you. And all I can do is to bring you relief so that you don’t have to go through the pain of having your neck blown off!” As he said that, a ruthless and savage expression filled the prisoner leader’s face.
“Relax! You’ve helped me before! That’s why, after I win this killing game and convert those energy crystals into credits, I will take good care of your wife and parents. I’ll treat them as my own. Second brother, go in peace!”
“You… You…” Prisoner second brother still wanted to say something, but the blood gushing out of his mouth prevented him from doing so. Finally, he stopped breathing, his eyes remaining wide open.
