Players, Please Board the Train

"Excellent! Now let's take a look at our Warrior Number 67. The number of Mutants he has killed currently ranks third, but over half of them were dismembered. His technique is clean, and the quantity possesses a certain aesthetic beauty. He is a hot contender for the championship of this two-city reality show!"

"As everyone can see, just moments ago while I was introducing him, he killed another player! He is a truly deserving title of Bloody Killer! Viewers who enjoy his performance can place bets to increase the frequency and duration of Number 67's promotional pushes!"

At this very moment, within the holographic square located at the top floor of Clown City, the entire square-shaped area was divided into countless small cubes. The cubes closer to the square's periphery were larger, while those inside progressively decreased in size. The cubes higher up were larger, and those below were smaller. Especially the several holographic projection images situated at the very top, which were more than three times the size of the other projections. One of them was precisely Warrior Number 67!

Each cube was playing footage from within the cleanup area, allowing a 360-degree, no-blind-spot observation of the actions and behaviors of the figures within the images. Below each cube were three rows of numbers in different colors. As these numbers jumped and changed, the position and size of the cubes also shifted. Different images were constantly being swapped in and out, replaced and moved around.

The host's impassioned voice continued to ring out, "Next, let's look at the most popular warrior right now — Number 227! Although he entered the show in a later batch, his Mutant kill count far surpasses the second-place contender. This is a contestant who grows stronger with each setback. He just experienced a small Mutant tide and, after resting only a few minutes, has already thrown himself back into a new battle!"

"Truly worthy of a hot-blooded warrior hailing from Clown City. His heroic posture deserves the praise of all Clown City residents!"

"Incredible! A friend from Subdivision 003 has supported Warrior 227 with one million White Bills, instantly boosting 227's three key metrics to the top! Currently, his solo viewership stands at seventy-three million, a full ten million ahead of the second-ranked Warrior 145! The number of bets placed has reached one hundred million!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, 227 is very likely to be the final champion. So, let's now see the request made by this friend who contributed one million White Bills!"

"Wow! This friend's request is for Warrior 227 to prove himself as a real man once more! A real man, of course, must emerge unscathed from a Mutant tide. Within the next hour, our contestant 227 will encounter a second Mutant tide!"
