Slumdog billionaire husband novel (Gerald Kenneth) novel Chapter 897

Chapter 897 New Rules

Gerald was dumbfounded. He did not expect that before the trial began, the established rules could be temporarily modified.

“Did it change like this in the past?” Gerald asked with doubt.

Next to him, Skyler said seriously, “It also happened in the past. In fact, the trial has always emphasized one point, and that is the survival of the fittest. The stronger young men would be chosen to enter the Corona Pool. I was quite happy as the previous rules did have some randomness, but now… after they changed the rules, our team has great disadvantages.”

Gerald nodded.

Under the new rules, the points-based system was adopted, and the eight checkpoints were kept. As for the eight checkpoints, eight circles were drawn with the altar at the center. In the specified time, one must enter the circle before the trial can continue. The card given to the captain will record the time they used to enter the eight circles.

In addition, the first to arrive at the altar would get twenty points, the second fifteen points, the third twelve points, the fourth to sixth ten points, and the seventh to eleventh eight points.

One could also get points by killing.

After obtaining a captain card, one would gain four points.

The trial of the person whose card was seized would end.

On this island, one could capture and kill each other. There was no doubt that after the new rules were issued, the randomness became less. Most of the people who could finally break into the top

ten were powerful.

And Skyler’s team would become everyone’s favorite. They were weak, and others could easily

gain points by killing them.

Most importantly, they were under great pressure to get points. If it was four against four, they were really no match for others.

Skyler looked at Anabel and said, “Ms. Pierce, even under such rules, don’t you consider joining

forces?”

Anabel shook her head and said, “Let’s rely on our own.”

Skyler sighed.

Many people at the scene looked serious. Of course, some of them looked very excited at this

time, such as the hopefuls of the major forces.

These teams were quite powerful. At this time, Kristian, Sheryl, and the others all looked excited.

Anabel was neither sad nor happy. Her expression seemed not to change.

Only Sylvie looked at Gerald strangely when the rules were announced.

In fact, Gerald did not understand what Sylvie was thinking.

In the car, she greeted Gerald. When Seth came to find trouble with Gerald, Sylvie offered to help Gerald. He did not know why Sylvie did that.

Gerald wondered if she had taken a fancy to him.

He did not feel much about the new rules, except for the cruelty of this world. He even felt that under such rules, it might be more suitable for them.

Skyler was still bitterly laughing. “We’re a team without Flame Decayers, so we can only hide and try to reach the altar as soon as possible. Then we can get some points and see if we can get into

the top ten.”

One Flame Decayer was enough to resist four peak Half-Step Flame Decayers. In the face of a team with Flame Decayers, they would not have any chance.

Of course, there were not many teams with Flame Decayers.
