"Hello, I'm from HR at Tengfei. You should already know about 'Eternal Night', right?"

"Yes, I understand." Liu Ren nodded.

To be honest, he was a little surprised.

Because there seem to be too many mysteries surrounding "Eternal Night".

He had lived in this world for thirty years and had almost never seen anything strange or unusual; he had simply lived another thirty years of mediocre life.

He always thought that the world was probably quite normal.

But today, he feels that his judgment is about to be overturned.

"So, now that you're aware of the risks, are you still planning to join?" HR asked. "Let me make this clear beforehand: joining requires signing a 'life or death' agreement. If anything happens to you inside 'Eternal Night,' our company will have absolutely no responsibility!"

"Heh, I understand." Liu Ren couldn't help but chuckle.

He said that the 100,000 yuan was indeed not so easy to obtain.

To put it bluntly, isn't that just money to buy your life?

I'll give you 100,000 yuan to save your life!

Go and get more traffic for the company!

It doesn't matter if you die, the company has already made its money!

Although Liu Ren didn't know how Tengfei made a profit.

But as a seasoned employee, he knew these bosses all too well.

Who would do a business that doesn't make money?

The fact that he did it means there's a lot of money to be made in it!

but……

So what?

Liu Ren was just an ordinary person burdened with debt.

What can I do even if I know?

After a brief silence, Liu Ren replied, "I'm willing to join the company."

"it is good."

As if they had been waiting for Liu Ren to say this, the HR person immediately took out the contract and said, "Sign and put your fingerprint on it, and then you can officially start working. Considering the special nature of the job, you can go back and settle things at home first. The 100,000 yuan will be transferred to you first."

"..."

Liu Ren did not respond, but silently read through the entire contract.

He looked at it for a while and then laughed in anger.

What kind of stupid contract is this?

Although he will be working as a live streamer, he won't get the majority of the revenue from the live streams.

The only reward Liu Ren received for his first live stream was a one-time payment of 100,000 yuan.

So you're trying to sell me a buyout here?

Liu Ren took a breath, wanting to say something.

But in the end, he swallowed his anger.

it's useless.

He read through the rest of the contract as well.

In summary, this is a buyout contract.

100,000 yuan can buy your life.

If you die during a live stream, the company isn't responsible.

If we make a profit, all the money goes to the company.

If you are lucky enough to survive, there are also rules.

After that, you will receive 10% of the revenue from each live stream you broadcast.

However, only a very small number of people survive their first live broadcast.

In "Eternal Night," a day is equivalent to an hour in the real world.

The first live stream will last at least ten hours, which is equivalent to ten days in "Eternal Night".

If the first live stream does not reach ten hours, subsequent streams will still be counted within those ten hours until the ten hours are reached—only then is the first live stream truly over.

Looking across the entire internet, less than 20% of people can survive for ten days.

No one can survive a month, which is thirty days, or thirty hours in the real world.

Liu Ren truly had no idea how difficult "Eternal Night" really was.

But he knew that Tengfei was damn stingy.

Ten percent!

How could he possibly have the nerve to ask for that number?

Moreover, it was the person who signed the contract who signed it for fifty years.

Liu Ren put down the contract, thought for a moment, and said to HR, "Could the contract be revised?"

"What should we change?" the HR person asked with great interest.

"Cut off fifty years."

"puff--"

Upon hearing this request, HR laughed: "Whether you can even survive for five hours is unknown, and you're worrying about this? You're really a weirdo."

"Will this work?"

"Sure, of course, that's fine. Our company will certainly meet this small request. However, this means your 10% profit will be reduced to 5%. Do you have any objections?"

"……No."

Liu Ren gave a blank answer.

He cursed Tengfei, that idiot company, in his heart.

That damn Zhou Bapi!

"Then let's sign this one." The HR person immediately took out another contract.

It seems like there was a plan in place.

"..."

Liu Ren read through the entire contract, and after confirming that there were no problems, he signed his name and pressed his handprint and fingerprint on it.

After all the procedures were completed, HR said, "By the way, you probably don't have any gaming devices at home, right? Here, you can go over there and pick one up as a new employee benefit for our company."

"it is good……"

Liu Ren went to the equipment room and picked up a gaming helmet that looked quite futuristic.

Then, somewhat dazed, I returned to my rented room, which I hadn't been back to in a long time.

As soon as I got home, I received a notification that the money had been deposited into my account.

The 100,000 yuan is now in hand.

Even though it's money to buy life.

Liu Ren looked at the string of zeros and let out a long sigh.

"what--"

Money to buy life.

What good is money to buy life?

Based on the average job salary, two thousand yuan a month, it would take five months to earn ten thousand yuan, and it would take fifty months to earn one hundred thousand yuan!

Do you know how long fifty months is?

Four years!

Four whole years!

This is only because they were willing to take him!

If nobody wants it, Liu Ren will use his head to earn 100,000 yuan!

The key point is that even with 100,000 yuan, it would only be a drop in the bucket!

Not enough to pay off the debt!

It wasn't enough to keep my elderly mother alive!

Liu Ren tossed his helmet onto the bed, which hadn't been made in a long time, and took out cigarettes he'd bought from the convenience store, smoking for a while.

He stared blankly out the window, then suddenly got up, found paper and pen, and began to write his last words somewhat awkwardly.

"Little Orange, by the time you read this letter, I will already be dead..."

Game of Death.

So many people went in and died inside.

Liu Ren would not take any chances.

Therefore, he had to make arrangements for his funeral in advance.

But... after writing half of it, Liu Ren irritably threw the pen aside and scratched his greasy hair.

"Fuck!"

"If I really die in there, Xiao Cheng will be all alone outside. How can she possibly have a good time?!"

What's the point of leaving a will?

"It's pointless!"

"Mom won't wake up, and the debt will have to be transferred to Xiaocheng!"

"Fuck!"

"This fucked-up world!"

Liu Ren kicked the corner of the table with a look of rage.

I wanted to smash something, but after looking at my only remaining phone, I held back.

He sat down in the chair and took a deep drag on his cigarette.

In the smoke-filled room, Liu Ren's mindset gradually changed.

He quickly figured it out.

"...unless I can live in the Eternal Night forever."

"Otherwise, it's completely useless."

"No problem can be solved!"

"Eternal Night!"

"Can I really live forever?"

"wrong--"

Liu Ren closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again, his eyes bloodshot and contorted with rage. He threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped on it a few times, twisting it a couple of times with his toes.

"We must survive!"

"This isn't a multiple-choice question at all!"

"I must live!"

"Make money with 'Eternal Night'!"

"There is absolutely no other way to go!"

"Even if it's hell ahead, I'm going to go!"

"Slap the King of Hell twice!"

"Then come back!"
