Chapter 597: Pool the flags
"Now that we have settled our players, please feast your eyes on our Pocket Dimension!" Barnaby announced.
As soon as he said that, the stage split in half and crawled outwards, revealing the enormous Pocket Dimension down below.
From first impressions alone, it seemed like they were going to be playing on a single island surrounded by nothing but endless seas.
"The objective of the game is simple. Be the last one standing with the flag, and you shall win the automobile bid!"
So it’s a capture-the-flag game, Michael thought.
Now, if he was playing for real, then being by himself would be a major disadvantage. His flag would easily fall under the enemies onslaught, especially if they ganged up on him.
But thankfully, he didn’t need to win the game. All he had to do was survive for as long as he could without getting eliminated.
Harbinger told him that interacting with these strong Maugnetics would help him increase his strength by a significant margin. True or not, he’d only find out during the game.
"Here are the rules," Barnaby announced. "Each of your teams will be given a flag. It is your duty to keep the flag in your possession, while stealing other flags from the other companies. The team that ends up with all flags under their banner will win the game!"
Michael found this interesting because with the rules of the game, having your flag captured was not an immediate loss for the team or the company. They could have a chance to take back their flag at a later time, given that they weren’t eliminated from the game entirely.
Just then, Dicky approached Michael and tapped him on the shoulders.
"Hey, Michael. We have a little proposition for you," he said.
