The Real World 1

Stage 3 of the game is about to begin!

The forum's finally got some serious discussion going.

About a third of the posts are speculations about what Stage 3 might be. Of the remaining posts, half are people begging the Chosen One Players to sell them one of those precious exemption slots.

Exemption slot prices have soared past 800,000 and are still rising —now it's practically impossible to get one.

In the blink of an eye, the Chosen One Players transformed from being hated, hunted, seen as mobile point banks have become the most sought-after people around. Never before have they felt so... popular.

Having been misled by the game's wordplay too many times, Wen Nannan now read each sentence of the official announcement carefully.

"Can be assigned to non-players..."

Why non-players? Because that's where players came from in the first place.
