"What's going on?"

The sudden shaking of the ground woke up countless runners who were still in the mountains, and they hurriedly came out of their tents, hastily packing their belongings and gathering their teammates.

"Another earthquake?" The player who had experienced the earthquake on the beach changed his face, but then he thought that there was no ocean here and there would be no tsunami, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Put out the fires, now go to an open area right away, and watch out for falling rocks on the mountain." In the darkness, the runners were all running methodically to the clearing. After a few days of harsh screening, these people already knew what it meant to be calm.

"Hehe, earthquakes aren't scary without tsunamis?" The game designer smirked as he looked at the still-calm players inside, and he glanced at his communication watch, calculating the time when the machine would officially start.

All of the machines after the third level had been set up with automatic programs, and even he couldn't pause or advance them. The reason for this was that the game had been hacked before, resulting in all plans for that session being disrupted and poorly received.

He stood up and walked over to the game venue simulation table, where the entire main game field was scaled down to real proportions on a three-square-meter simulation table.

The designer zoomed in on a certain valley at random, which had several figurines that referred to the players. He could see the movements of those villains at the moment, they were all heading down the mountain where there was a small plain.

"Hmm?" The designer noticed a villain without a player symbol, "Stowaway?"

He immediately found where the player designator was and went into the live feed, and sure enough, it was a stowaway with no player uniform or character watch. This person was a bit of a mess at the moment, his unorganized actions had been causing trouble, but everyone else around him was willing to protect him, and the liveblog was full of complaints.

"Phantom Worm?" The game designer stroked his chin, an interested light flashing in his eyes.

"Even medium bugs can be easily attracted and controlled, this bug is a mutant, right? Just like Qin ......" The game designer licked the corner of his mouth, "Powerful ability, and a near-absent sense of morality."

He wondered where the limits of this control ability were, would it make those controlled bugs give their lives rather than preserve him?

A mountain away on a small plain, rocks, and trees tumbled down together and rumbled, and those in Ken's squad who could fly had changed into bug form, and they were still flying with their teammates.

The tremor was very strong and cracks appeared on the ground. These cracks spread to the sides at a very fast speed and the ground began to bulge as if something underneath was toppling upwards.

"It doesn't look like an earthquake, but rather like a strong crustal movement, such as plate movement." An Yinong quickly backed up to the land where there were no visible cracks.

Yet it was a blink of an eye that new cracks appeared under his feet, and this small plain was right on the fracture zone.

With landslides and rolling rocks on the mountains, cracks in the ground underneath, and darkness to see the path, there was no truly safe place.

"Go this way." Qin pulled him close to falling, his hand broad and strong, and warm.

The ground crumbled and swung, but Qin walked steadily with each step, and there was a strong confidence about him that put people at ease when they saw him. An Yinong calmed down quickly as well, he stepped where Qin had stepped, the falling rocks and cracks couldn't keep up with them.
