BXBX NOVEL Chapter 624: 624: Happy Chaos Field 1
It stood up straight with its plump pumpkin-like body, raised its short thin arms, adjusted the ruffled neckband around its neck, then spoke joyfully:
“Welcome, welcome! ~ Welcome to the Happy Chaos Field, this is the Brawl Stage, I am the Inspector of this field, and I will explain the rules of the game – ”
The clown raised its right hand and snapped its fingers.
Boom!
Five spotlights from above casted down beams of light, each illuminating a chair high up on the stage!
The chairs were all bright red with a velvet texture, with gold trim and multi-colored gems on the top and armrests. They were extraordinarily luxurious and silently indicated the exceptional status of those who sat on them.
The clown’s sausage-shaped mouth in bright red peeled open, revealing a row of neatly polished teeth. He smiled and said, “This is the War King’s Throne! Out of all the 30 participants, only 5 winners will get a seat!
The rules are very simple. As long as you come to this stage, you can happily brawl at will. The winner gets points, the loser loses points! The first player to reach the passing score can take the War King’s seat!”
Boom!
He snapped his fingers again!
A circle of vertical holographic projections lit up around the stage, each showing a half-body image of a player and their score. All 30 holographic projections showed each player with 0 points.
In the audience, a player raised his hand and asked, “What’s the passing score?”
“30 points,” the clown replied with a smile, “The full score is 50 points, the passing score is 30 points. Absolutely fair.”
“How many points can you get for winning a match?” Another question came from the audience.
“If 30 points can get you a seat, what’s the point of setting a full score of 50?”
“Does the brawl have specific rules? Can we use props?”
“… Is there a time limit?”
“How many times do I have to win in order to pass?”
More and more people started asking questions, causing an uproar.
The clown raised both hands, palms down, pressing downwards. “Silence–”
Its voice was as if amplified by a super high-powered sound system, deafeningly loud!
The whole field was stunned.
Some people had to cover their ears directly, in so much pain they had to squat under their seats!
The clown saw this, toned down his voice, and said, “Oh dear, oh dear? It seems like some of you are not in great shape. Have you only ever been through a maze once? This could be problematic during the brawl… ”
No one spoke.
Even if they wanted to, at this moment they were too scared to speak out.
The clown continued, “No need to rush, before the official round begins, I will explain all the rules in detail! Now listen to me–
One day during a solar eclipse, I didn’t see the sun. Do you know why?”
The entire place fell silent.
Everyone looked at the clown on stage in bewilderment, as his words seemed out of context.
The clown tiptoed and executed a comical twirling move: “Because of the solar eclipse! I was busy eating all day, of course I couldn’t see the sun! Hahahaha!”
The crowd: “…”
What the hell is going on…
The Inspector standing on the empty stage was laughing loudly, leaving the players puzzled.
Suddenly, laughter broke out from the audience, “Hahaha, solar eclipse!!!”
Shen Mo silently watched Tan Xiao, who was beside him, laughing uncontrollably.
“I’m dying of laughter hahaha…hiccups…” Tan Xiao was laughing so hard he was almost in tears, “Too funny hahaha! Solar eclipse…eating all day hahaha…”
Everyone turned to look at Tan Xiao.
It was then that Su Man noticed a familiar face. She quickly switched seats to sit next to Shen Mo and Tan Xiao.
But before she could start a conversation with them, a spotlight suddenly shone on Tan Xiao!
Tan Xiao was stunned.
The clown on stage pointed at him and said, “The Happy Chaos Field should be as joyful as this! You, the man laughing heartily, please come on stage to demonstrate the brawl, and assist me in explaining the rules to everyone!”
