Supremacy Games

"Let's jump straight to rules explaining." After taking care of Felix's situation, Zoe teleported back to the podium and said, "We already wasted enough time. So I will try to make my explanation quick."

She immediately jumped into explaining the games' rules instead of talking about the streaming revenue like Marlion did in Felix's first game.

If Felix was playing in a bronze game, he wouldn't be spared from hearing the same explanation. However, since this was a silver game that didn't have a single player on his first game, there was no need for the MC to waste their time.

"Those are the rules of the game that you were given before." She pointed at the 11 rules, which were displayed on the screen, and began to explain the vague ones, so they wouldn't ask too many questions later on during the Q&A.

"First let's start with the shuffling mechanism and what you should expect from it."

She highlighted the 3rd rule and 4th on the screen and put them above a massive towering maze, that spanned over 20 square kilometers.

Just like the imitation that Felix used to practice with, this maze was made out of a smooth silver alloy that had multiple complex formations, words, and pictures drawn upon them. Some were colorful while some were just straight-out written sentences in black. They were clustered on every wall and ground, creating a mysterious breathtaking atmosphere.

But for the players, they found nothing beautiful about it, as they knew that those formations and words were the keys to either activate traps or open up hidden compartments within the walls or the ground.

Just the sight of their numerous numbers sent a chill coursing through their back. They understood that one wrong step might lead to their downfall.

Felix was not despairing as much as the others, as he still had a trump card that helped him successfully avoid those traps in his training room.

"Every 30 minutes, the entire maze's walls will shuffle, like this."

Madam Zoe didn't let them continue dwelling on those key formations, as she showed them on the screen, the entire maze's walls shuffle randomly, changing the entire layout into a completely different labyrinth. The process didn't take even 10 seconds!

The only thing that remained stationary during the shuffle was the exit position that was in the very center of the maze.

"That's it; I am giving on reaching the exit. I will focus on collecting points."

"Same, chasing after the exit is but a wishful thinking."

"True, after all, by the time you figure the path forward and begin treading it, the maze will shuffle ruining your efforts."

Immediately after the demonstration ended, noisy murmurers engulfed the hall, as the players kept sharing their own views on the shuffling mechanism.

"Sign, I pity those simple-minded apes." A smart looking tall man, wearing a dark business suit, a blue marine tie, pointy black shoes, and thin glasses, eyed those players in a piteous manner.
