My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 67 Death Fighter

Lu Bai originally wanted to learn about this world, but after browsing the information for more than an hour, he became more confused.

No matter how you look at the records after the Ice Age, there is something weird about them.

For example, since humans moved into underground cities, several centuries have passed, and the overall technological level has not only not made much progress, but has even regressed in some periods.

The reason that communication between dungeons is simply difficult is obviously a bit far-fetched.

It seemed as if people suddenly lost interest in developing technology and focused on studying a deathmatch system whose origins were unknown.

You know, there's no physical entity in this deathmatch.

Even though this thing is indeed mysterious and worthy of study, it should not be taken seriously to the point of giving up scientific research.

Excluding the possibility that all administrative personnel of the coalition government were cursed, there must be sufficient reasons to do so.

Unfortunately, Lu Bai couldn't find any clues at all.

“Have all traces on the Internet been deleted?”

Compared to the vague information in the early days of the dungeon era, information about the deathmatch duel is easy to find.

Including the currently known, the strength ranking of each level of ability, the way to obtain various hidden titles, the inventory of the top death fighters in each major dungeon, etc.

Whether you can think of it or not, you can find the answer in the mainstream death fighter forum.

Lu Bai took a quick glance at the list of hidden titles and saw his title of [Ultimate Killer].

But it is worth mentioning that the methods of obtaining these hidden titles are extremely demanding, and most of them are impossible to obtain even if you know how to do it.

He had been browsing the Death Fighter forum for nearly an hour. Although he wasn't particularly thorough, at least he had gotten out of his state of being completely in the dark.

For him, there are only two points that need to be paid attention to for the time being.

One is the talent on the personal interface, and the other is the start time of the deathmatch.

The so-called talent does refer to the talent in cultivation, but in the real world there is no so-called universal practice, at least Lu Bai has not found it.

Therefore, the level of talent will not be too obvious in real life. At most, compared to ordinary people, one will have stronger physical coordination and learn things faster.

But it would be a big mistake to say that talent is useless.

Deathmatches that end in a few weeks are actually rare, and there are many that take several years or even more than ten years.

When you encounter a deathmatch arena with a background of fantasy, fairy tales, magic, etc., a high enough talent can put you far ahead of other deathmatches.

Although it is unclear how the deathmatch system works, in the deathmatch arena, the fighters can indeed practice like the natives.

It is not uncommon for people to concentrate on practicing for decades and then come out to conquer the world.

Therefore, when the Death Fighting School recruits new students, it mainly looks at talent first. Those with less than five points are not even eligible for admission.

Even if you are unwilling, you can only be a wild person.

As for the time of the deathmatch, it will be held every thirty days after you officially become a deathmatch player, and the match will start at twelve noon.

Fortunately, the first three rounds of deathmatch are considered a protection period for novices, and the worst that can happen is elimination.

But after the fourth round, death in the death arena will actually result in death, and you will not be able to return to the real world.

And you can no longer "jump off midway".

All deathmatch participants from the fourth round onwards are required to participate in at least one deathmatch within a year, which is mandatory.

Because of this, fights of less than three rounds are generally referred to as reserve fights and are not considered true deathmatches.

With the mortality rate so high, why do so many people still choose to become death fighters?
It mainly relies on the strong promotion of the coalition government.

Including but not limited to granting death fighters a respected social status, providing a large number of welfare benefits, and if they die, their relatives' pensions will not be withheld, etc. All of this is a fatal temptation for the lower-class people who lack upward channels.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you don’t have high talent, you have to rely on connections to die.

……

"But the question is, what's the reason?"

Lu Bai stroked his chin thoughtfully.

He found no information on the subject in the forum and had no idea what the coalition government could gain from a deathmatch.

The more you understand, the more confused you become.

Fortunately, he is not in a hurry. He has plenty of time to learn about it slowly.

"Brother, why do you like playing with your phone so much now?" Lu Qingyan was so bored that he started to squirm on the sofa.

He actually didn't expect Lu Bai to reply.

After all, after being fished out of the river, he had been in a daze and wouldn't answer any questions.

When Lu Bai looked over, the little boy had already turned over and put his short legs on the back of the sofa.

For a kid, it’s actually pretty good to be able to stay quiet for so long.

Lu Bai was not quite sure how his previous incarnation got along with his brothers and sisters, so he immediately asked, "Have you seen my diary?"

"What diary do you have? Who writes a diary?"

Lu Qingyan rolled his eyes, and after a few seconds, he suddenly reacted and said in shock: "Brother, are you back to normal?!"

Although Lu Bai was a little disappointed that his predecessor did not leave a diary, he did not take it too seriously.

If worst comes to worst, there’s still the excuse that his personality changed drastically after escaping death.

Lu Bai smiled and said, "There are still many things I can't remember."

"That's great, too. You don't know how worried my sister and I are about you."

At this point, a sly look flashed across the little boy's chubby face, and he said, "Why don't we go out and have something delicious to celebrate? How about going to that new fried chicken restaurant?"

It just so happened that Lu Bai was a little hungry, so he nodded.

"Alright."

……

Coming out of the building, the densely packed gray-black high-rise buildings on both sides of the road looked a bit suffocating.

It is not as chaotic as the Kowloon Walled City. On the contrary, all the buildings are neatly arranged and lined up one after another.

Although the distance between buildings is only three or four meters, the building heights are almost all over fifty stories. From a distance, it looks like rows of huge coffins rushing towards you.

Lu Bai looked up and through the gaps between the buildings, he could see that the sky simulated by the holographic sky curtain was gradually turning dim, indicating that it was already evening.

Putting aside the fact that there is very little living space per person, the coalition government is indeed trying to create the appearance of a real city.

The streets were full of pedestrians. Although they were not crowded, they were not empty either.

Combined with the loud music played in the shops, people can more or less feel a bit of homeliness in this steel jungle.

Seeing that there were so many people, Lu Qingyan naturally stretched out her hand and held Lu Bai's: "Brother, go over here."
