As these words rang out, the world shattered like a mirror.
Brandon seemed to have entered a world filled with darkness.
Lines of white words suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
[Welcome to the escape game!]
[Here, you will compete with other players for survival. Only if you live to the end will you become the winner!]
[When the game ends, the system will reward you with survival points based on your performance. You can use them to exchange for anything you can imagine, even your lifespan!]
[When you have accumulated enough victories, you will play against stronger opponents!]
[The map of each escape game is random. Please pay attention.]
[Before the game begins, the system will immediately grant you an F-class talent. When you have accumulated enough victories, your talent level will also increase.]
Brandon nodded.
The rules were not too difficult to understand. Each player had a rank, allowing them to be matched with stronger opponents as they accumulate wins, and the higher the rank, the higher their talent level would be.
The system’s voice became weaker and weaker, and Brandon’s mood became tense.
‘It’s my first time in the escape game, and there’s already a problem?!’ Brandon thought.
In the next second, endless crimson flooded into the darkness, and three lines of bright red words filled his field of vision.
[Congratulations, you have unlocked all SSS-class talents!]
[In every escape game, you will randomly receive an SSS-class talent!]
[Hint: every SSS-class talent is unique!]
In an instant, Brandon’s eyes widened, his breathing became rapid, and he felt as if all the blood in his body had frozen.
This, this…
The sudden change rendered him speechless.
But he accepted it calmly.
Transmigration and escape games could be real, so why couldn’t abnormality in the game be real?
SSS-class talent!
Brandon was delighted.
Compared to F-class talent, SSS-class talent definitely had to be stronger.
Even though all the players had F-class talent, he had SSS-class talent. With a higher starting point, his chances of winning in escape games would be higher.
Moreover, all SSS grade talents were unique, and only one of each would ever appear, but he had all of them!
In other words, among the billions of players in this world, no one but himself would be able to obtain SSS-class talents in this game!
This was too awesome!
[You are being randomly bestowed with SSS-class talent…]
[Infinite invisibility (SSS): When you enter the game, as long as you don’t attack, you will remain invisible. If the invisibility disappears, you only need to remain still for 3s to enter the invisibility state again!]
[Hint: this talent is only effective in this game. It can be exchanged with survival points!]
The moment Brandon saw the talent, he felt his heart stop beating!
Was this an SSS-class talent?
It was too strong!
With infinite invisibility, as long as he did not attack and stayed out of fights, allowing other players to compete, he would be able to survive until there were only two people left. Then, he would be able to win with a sneak attack.
Basically, he could win even if he lay down.
[Sending you to the battlefield: Western wilderness!]
In the next moment, Brandon felt his vision go black. When he opened his eyes again, he had arrived at a new place.
The land was hard and caked, yellow with hints of red, and sparse withered grass grew on it. The hot wind that blew at him brought with it coarse sand, and it hurt when it hit his face.
Right in front of him, there was a ruin full of weeds, its circular stone pillars weathered and cracked.
[Game Tips:
1. This escape game’s map is the western wilderness, and all available weapons are cold weapons!
2. The total number of players in this game is 100, and only the last person can win!
3. The area where the players can move is called the ‘safe zone’. Every once in a while, the ‘safe zone’ will shrink, and the area outside the ‘safe zone’ will be filled with poisonous gas. If you stay in the poisonous area, you will continue to lose HP, so please stay in the ‘safe zone’ at all times!
3. There are various resource points and resource areas in the game. You can find equipment, consumables, and skill books in them.
4. Other than the resource points and resource areas, there are also powerful and violent monsters randomly distributed on the map. If you kill them, they may drop resources.
5. If you are eliminated, your lifespan will be deducted (1-24 months)(the specific value of the deduction depends on your performance in this game).
6. Make good use of your talent, it will help you win!
7. In this game, all the players’ attributes are the same as in the real world and are digitized. Their HP is determined by their vitality. If a player is eliminated, all their attributes will be increased by 5 points. All the equipment of that player will drop, there is also a probability that the player will drop a skill (skill book form).
8. Survive!!!

[We detected that you (Brandon Hayes) have entered the escape game for the first time. This game will be exempt from the elimination penalty!]
Brandon touched his chin.
Exempt from the penalty?
With his SSS-class talent — infinite invisibility, he doubted he’d receive the penalty even if he wasn’t exempted.
He lowered his head to look at himself, but he did not see himself wearing the striped prison uniform. Instead, he looked through his body and directly saw the red-yellow rocky ground.
“Looks like I’m already invisible…”
“Let’s go and search for some equipment first.”
With light footsteps, Brandon walked towards the ruins not far in front of him.
He had just reached the ruins when he heard hurried footsteps.
Someone was here!
Brandon’s heart tightened, and he quickly softened his footsteps.
Only when he reached the entrance of the ruins did he see a skinny blond man hurriedly walking in.
Obviously, he was a hurry to plunder resources.
This was the only resource point nearby, so Brandon naturally would not give up.
Relying on his ‘infinite invisibility’, he followed closely.
“Weapons first!”
Ignoring the blond man for the moment, Brandon turned in the other direction and found a low stone platform with a few things lying on it.
[
Weapon: Dagger
Quality: White
Attack Speed: + 0.3
Attack: 15
Durability: 30/30
Description: A common dagger with speckled rust stain. Looks as though it has been abandoned for a long time.
]
[Energy drink (white): Instantly restores 10% of maximum HP]
Brandon was overjoyed. He collected everything and held the dagger as he moved towards the blond man.
The resources in a house might not even be enough for one player. How could he be willing to share this place with someone else? Moreover, in order to obtain enough survival points, he needed to get lots of kills.
How could he let go of prey that came to him at the beginning?
