Chapter 214

The black-robed man walked up to the two youths.

"Bigg, let's play a game. Only one of you or your friend will survive. Of course, the one who survives must come with me. Make your decision! "

The so-called 'game' that the black-robed man suggested was actually a dilemma. If Bel killed Bigg, Bel would have to leave with the black-robed man. His future would never see the light of day and it would be more painful than death. If Bigg killed Bel, he would be able to survive but he would once again become the black-robed man's prisoner. It would be more painful than death.

The knife left Bel's hand and floated between the two of them.

"You have ten seconds to make a decision. If you don't make a move within ten seconds, it means that you've chosen to hand your friend over to me. I promise you, I'll teach him a good lesson. "The black-robed man did not bother to hide the smile on his face. "Countdown, begin …"

Bigg was still struggling. His body was trembling slightly. Although his memory of the black-robed man had not fully recovered, his soul trembled the moment he saw the man's face. It was a sense of fear that originated from the depths of his soul. In his heart, a voice kept repeating over and over again, "Don't go with him. The further the better …"

On the other hand, Bel's current appearance was rather frightening. Covered in blood, his consciousness seemed to have been completely dominated by killing. His eyes no longer had the light they used to have and had been replaced by brutality. Bigg could not imagine what would happen to him if he was allowed to follow the black-robed man.

"Three, two, one …"

The moment the black-robed man finished his countdown, Bigg made his move. He grabbed the knife and stabbed it into Bel's abdomen. Bigg's right hand, which was holding the knife, did not stop trembling.

"I'm sorry … I can't let him take you away. Although I haven't fully recovered my memory, I know that he'll turn you into a monster that only knows how to kill. He'll let you live, but he'll also make you suffer more than death. " Bigg explained loudly as he watched Bel gradually regain his senses and look at his body that had been stabbed by Bigg in surprise. However, Bel did not listen to him. His eyes were filled with innocence and despair. It was the same look that Biggie had when he had killed Bel many years ago. Biggie could not help but close his eyes. "I'm sorry …"

"You've made the right choice." The black-robed man took off his hat, finally revealing his face to Biggie. "For a weak-willed loser like him, I'm afraid his consciousness will be completely wiped out in the first trial, and he'll become a saber slave. To him, death is the best release. "

"Aren't you here to take me away? Then there's no need to talk so much nonsense. " After killing Bel, Biggie's fear of the black-robed man seemed to have lessened significantly. He vented all of his emotions.

"You're young, but you have quite the temper." The black-robed man stretched out his hand, and Biggie suddenly felt dizzy.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had appeared in a primitive jungle. At the same time, he heard the black-robed man's voice coming from somewhere. "This game is very simple. In this jungle, there are ten thousand Rank 1 Gene Body humans. Each of them has been given a weapon, but the game will only end when 9999 of them die. In other words, only one of them can leave this place alive. By the way, there's a shortage of food in this jungle. Good luck! "

As soon as the black-robed man finished speaking, several images flashed in Biggie's mind. It was a skinny young man alone in the jungle. He had cut off a corpse's thigh with a knife, then placed it over a fire and ate it with relish. That young man was Biggie himself.

Based on the information that the black-robed man had inadvertently revealed, Biggie deduced that this was only the first trial. There would be a second, a third … He found it hard to imagine what he had experienced back then.

Before Biggie could come back to his senses, an arrow suddenly flew toward him and nailed itself into a big tree next to him. The tail of the arrow shook violently from the impact.

Biggie rolled over and hid behind a big tree. He tightened his grip on the knife in his right hand. He was still thinking about how to solve the food problem. The first trial was already so crazy, and he was wondering what the subsequent trials would be like. Then, he was ambushed. If the arrow had deviated ten centimeters to the left, his head would have been blown off.

However, Biggie also noticed that the arrow was just an ordinary arrow. It did not carry primary power or any other special abilities. This meant that his opponent was just an ordinary Rank 1 Gene Body.

Biggie, who was hiding behind the big tree, patiently waited for his opponent to appear. According to the rules of the game, everyone in the forest was an enemy. Everyone would attack each other at the first opportunity.

The person who ambushed Biggie obviously did not intend to let Biggie go so easily because Biggie was really skinny and not even ten years old. Naturally, he would not let such a prey go so easily in this forest.

Biggie also knew that he would become an easy target for others. Unlike his previous huge body, he was now only seven years old, and his body was thin due to malnutrition. However, this body size had its advantages. It was easy for him to hide, and it was easy for people to let their guard down. Most adults would not think that a child less than ten years old could pose any threat to them.

Biggie had lost all his strength and primary power, but he still had his knife skills. Although his opponent was an adult much bigger than him, he was still a Rank 1 Gene Body without primary power protection. No matter how strong his defense was, it was impossible for him to defend against a sharp knife. Biggie personally felt that as long as he could overcome the big problem of food, survival would not be a big problem.

The strong man carried the mechanical crossbow and walked casually toward the big tree where Biggie was hiding. He felt that he was lucky to have encountered a child just as he understood the rules of the game. "This is practically food delivered to my doorstep," he thought. To him, a child less than ten years old was like a defenseless chick. He could pick it up with one hand, and it posed no threat at all.

However, this time, he was wrong.

When he appeared under the big tree, he realized that the child who was hiding under the tree was gone. He looked around in confusion. "That child clearly rolled under this tree just now. Why is there no one here?"

At that moment, Biggie found the right spot and jumped down from the tree. He held his sword with both hands and stabbed it into the other person's body. In fact, he had already climbed up the tree. Looking at the fallen body, Biggie was a little hesitant. If he wanted to preserve his strength, he needed enough food. However, it was obvious that the best food in this forest was other humans. From the few images that flashed through his memory, he was very sure of this.

Frowning slightly, Biggie searched the man's body. He wanted to see if there was anything else on him that could be eaten other than his body. However, after searching for a while, he found nothing.

"What should I do? Do I really have to eat this person? " As a chef, Biggie was not picky about ingredients. He even knew that there was a special circle of chefs that specialized in using humans as ingredients. Biggie had reservations about this type of chef because he had never met such people in real life. Therefore, he did not have any opinions about it. However, to him, this kind of cannibalism was too barbaric.

Just as he was wondering what to do, a few Necrophagous Black Beetles crawled over from nearby. Biggie's eyes lit up.

Necrophagous Black Beetles were a type of beetle that ate carrion. Although these beetles emitted a horrible stench, these creatures were not poisonous and could be eaten.

Biggie nailed a fist-sized Necrophagous Black Beetle to the ground with his knife. A green liquid flowed out of the beetle's body, exuding a horrible stench. Biggie held his breath as he cut the beetle into several pieces. Then, he closed his eyes and stuffed the pieces into his mouth. After chewing hard a few times, he quickly swallowed it.

A few minutes later, Biggie finally finished eating the Necrophagous Black Beetle. His mouth was filled with a disgusting stench. His stomach was churning uncontrollably, but he forced himself not to throw up. He knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to learn to adapt. If he did not eat these beetles, he would have to eat humans. However, he did not want to go back to the way he used to be. He did not want to become the person who ate human flesh without any qualms.

After eating a fist-sized Necrophagous Black Beetle, he was no longer hungry. Moreover, the residual smell in his mouth had reduced his desire for food to its lowest point.

After looking around, Biggie chose a direction and quickly left the scene of the battle. Staying in a place with such a strong stench of blood would only attract more enemies.

Biggie quickly dashed into the depths of the dense forest, not letting his guard down at all times. In fact, his earlier judgment was very accurate. Less than ten minutes after he left the scene of the battle, a woman appeared at the spot. After seeing the corpse, the woman crouched down expressionlessly. She used the long sword in her hand to cut off the man's two thighs and the two muscular arms. Then, she threw them into a cloth bag and carried it on her back. It was obvious that she was not only going to eat human flesh, but she was also going to store food.

Not long after she left, another young man in his twenties appeared. In less than three minutes, he used the knife in his hand to completely dissect the corpse. He removed all the parts that had flesh, including the thing between the man's legs. The incomplete corpse was dismembered until only the skeleton, internal organs, and a head were left. He even reached out to fish out the man's heart. He weighed it in his hand and smiled. "This is the most delicious thing in the human body …"
