2 The First Trial - Prison Break Night
"Ding! Divine-Level Fleeing System successfully loaded!"
The moment this sound rang out, Su Yu was immediately stunned.
It's here!
It's finally here!
A system, a standard equipment for time travelers!
The author didn't deceive me!
A sense of joy surged in Su Yu's heart, and he immediately spoke up.
"System, please introduce your abilities!"
"Of course, Host. This system is called the Divine-Level Fleeing System, designed to transform the host into the ultimate escapee, providing the host with unimaginable abilities."
"Binding successful, the Newbie Gift Package has been activated. Would you like to claim it?"
The system's voice sounded.
Su Yu nodded without hesitation.
"Claim!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving a comprehensive attribute boost of 20 points! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Divine-Level Theft Skill (max)!"
The system's voice continued to sound, and at the same time, a personal panel appeared in front of Su Yu that only he could see.
Host: Su Yu;
IQ: 140 (average human IQ is around 115);
Strength: 132 (average human strength is around 110);
Speed: 135 (average human speed is around 110);
Skills: Divine-Level Theft Skill (max);
System Shop: Not yet opened;
The panel appeared in front of Su Yu, and he instantly understood.
IQ, strength, speed, and so on, he didn't need to explain.
He was obviously above the average in all of them. Of course, that was because the system had given him additional points.
A direct boost of 20 points!
In other words, his overall quality now far surpassed that of an ordinary person!
Even Su Yu himself could feel it.
His thinking was operating several times faster than before!
His initially somewhat feeble body now felt like it was brimming with explosive strength!
This made Su Yu extremely satisfied.
An IQ of 140 was definitely a terrifying value.
To know, one of the greatest scientists, Einstein, had an IQ of only 146!
With an IQ of 140, he might not be as good in terms of scientific research, but when it came to problem-solving, he could definitely outclass countless people!
In terms of physical ability, Su Yu made a preliminary estimation.
His current speed was probably on par with some professional athletes.
The same went for strength!
The system... was so powerful!
Su Yu couldn't help but marvel.
What surprised him the most was that the system had also given him a skill!
The Divine-Level Theft Skill!
And it was at max level!
Feeling as if he had absorbed decades of experience in an instant, Su Yu was astonished.
This was truly amazing!
Stealing, it seemed, had a lot of intricacies?
Amazing, truly amazing. Professions were really something, as each had its own expertise.
As he was delving into this skill, Su Yu noticed something else that puzzled him.
"System, what's the deal with the System Shop?"
"The System Shop hasn't been opened yet. The host needs to accumulate popularity points to open it. Once opened, the System Shop will offer a variety of skills and even items for the host to use."
The system explained.
Su Yu nodded upon hearing this.
Popularity points, he understood this concept.
As long as he had a certain level of influence, he would get them.
He wasn't worried about this aspect.
After the official launch of Global Manhunt, everyone would have their own individual livestream rooms.
Therefore, as long as he performed astonishingly well, his popularity points would definitely not be lacking!
With this in mind, Su Yu was full of confidence.
With the system by his side, especially with the added bonus of this Divine-Level Skill, he felt even happier.
Of course, he wasn't thrilled because he could soon become a renowned thief.
Rather, it was because the first trial of the Global Manhunt program was quite special.
What made it special?
In the first trial, all participating 'fugitives' would be locked up in prison!
After 24 hours, the prison would hypothetically open, allowing the escapees to leave. At that moment, the official pursuit would begin!
And if someone managed to actually escape within the 24 hours, that would be extraordinary.
The production team would evaluate their performance uniquely, assigning them 1-5 stars and rewarding them with millions of dollars!
However, up to now, it had already been the third season of the show, and no one had managed to escape within the 24 hours. They were always released after the time was up.
However, Su Yu wasn't very concerned about this anymore.
With his current state, combined with the system's assistance, perhaps this time's show could exceed everyone's expectations?
A smile appeared on Su Yu's face.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully unlocking the system task: Prison Break Night!"
"Task reward: If the host successfully escapes, they will receive a chance to draw a Divine-Level Skill from the system as a reward!"
The system's voice suddenly rang out, making Su Yu even more delighted.
Wonderful!
Not only could he win a prize for escaping, but there were also system rewards?
That's great.
Su Yu was overjoyed.
At the same time, the host's voice brought his thoughts back.
"Participant number 100, Su Yu, where are you? Are you here?"
The host's voice made everyone look around.
After all, nobody expected that after waiting for a few minutes, the final participant still hadn't appeared.
At this moment, however, Su Yu suddenly walked forward.
The attention of thousands of people instantly shifted to him.
Even the pursuit officials standing on the stage were looking at him.
"Interesting, he's a young man."
"He looks somewhat naive, but why didn't he come on stage earlier?"
"Maybe he wanted to attract some attention." Led by Zhang Mingshan, a few pursuit officials laughed.
And Su Yu stood among the hundred participants.
The host's gaze shifted to them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, are you all certain that you are participating in our Global Manhunt program and have read all the related rules?"
"Understood."
"Got it."
"No problem."
One voice after another rang out, filled with excitement.
Su Yu also nodded lightly.
Back then, he might have been excited too.
After all, he could get 500,000 just for doing nothing.
But now, Su Yu had come to understand.
He wasn't after that 500,000.
What he wanted was... the reward of hundreds of billions!
Interesting...
Su Yu glanced at the pursuit officials and a smile appeared on his face.
Among them, Zhang Mingshan's eyebrow twitched.
"That young man named Su Yu seemed to look in our direction just now?"
"Yes, I noticed that too." Qihai Ming, a top private detective, pushed up his glasses.
Zhao Wanqing, the psychology professor, furrowed her brow.
"Wanqing, what's the matter?"
Beside her, Bing Bing smiled at Zhao Wanqing.
Others also turned their gazes over.
Zhao Wanqing shook her head.
"I just feel that Su Yu's gaze was filled with confidence."
After this statement, everyone exchanged glances and started laughing.
"Confidence is a good thing, but he'll understand the situation when the time comes." Zhang Mingshan, the most experienced one, smiled.
The others nodded in agreement, not paying much attention.
After all, youthful arrogance was to be expected.
Meanwhile, the host's attention returned to the camera.
The online livestream had already begun!
This was a global broadcast!
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, whether you're online or offline, everyone can clearly see everything that's happening!"
"Both the pursuit officials and the fugitives are ready!"
"The pursuit officials have already been introduced once. As for the fugitives, they were randomly selected from various professions!"
"Now, let's all enter the first stage of the Global Manhunt program together - the Prison Break Night!"
"And let me secretly tell you, in order to make this Prison Break Night more interesting, among the participating fugitives, we already have an international prison escape expert."
This statement caused an explosion of reactions from countless viewers who had just entered the livestream room, as well as from the bystanders at the scene!
