Chapter 12

It can only be for profit, or something is forcing them to act this way...

It wasn't until this moment that he finally confirmed his suspicion: after telling the newcomers the information, you can get five hundred reward points, and the reincarnation world is using this method to "force" the veterans to share information, isn't it?

Just as Henry Clark was thinking this, a bespectacled young man among the crowd suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Stop trying to fool me! Do you think that's scientific? Come on, there's nothing scientific about this at all. Not to mention the information that suddenly appeared in our minds, or whether the information you mentioned is real, let me just ask you: there are so many horror movies, sci-fi movies, and disaster movies in the world—some reasonable, some not, some with plots full of holes and contradictions. Are you saying that every time a screenwriter or director comes up with a story, it becomes a real world?"

With the bespectacled youth's loud questioning, the others also showed doubtful expressions. They all looked at Henry Clark with suspicion, and Jenny immediately stepped past Henry Clark and shouted, "Do you really think you can be fooled by this? I've personally experienced three horror movie worlds! Of course... you have to count this time as well, but that's not the point. The point is that everything Henry Clark just said is true!"

Although Jenny spoke passionately, everyone still wore disbelieving expressions, and the first to question her was actually Henry Clark, who stood beside her.

"I don't believe it either..."

Henry Clark looked at Jenny's surprised gaze, rubbed his brow, and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry. Even after all you've said, even I find it hard to believe, let alone everyone else, right? Seeing is believing. If this really is the world of the horror movie 'Skyline Catastrophe,' if the so-called reincarnation world is real, then..."

"Let's see it with our own eyes!"

Chapter 6: Teams and... Traps!

"Skyline Catastrophe" is a sci-fi horror film that tells the old story of alien creatures invading Earth—a trope that's been done to death in the alien movie genre. Still, this horror film has some innovative and impressive elements. The most original part is that the aliens use human brains as something like computer chips to control the bio-weapons they've created.

But any computer can be infected by a virus, even alien technology that uses human brains as chips... And the protagonist of this movie is just such a virus. By the end, he is captured by the aliens, his brain is extracted and installed into an alien bio-weapon, but unexpectedly, he doesn't lose his consciousness or memory, and instead uses his human mind to control the bio-weapon...

"This is the 'Skyline Catastrophe' as I know it." Henry Clark was leaning against the wall, saying this to the people in front of him.

Ever since the brief dispute by the roadside more than ten minutes ago, at Henry Clark's suggestion, everyone finally reached a temporary agreement: to wait and see for now, to find out whether this world is really the so-called horror movie world, and whether this is truly "Skyline Catastrophe."

Although all of this is extremely unbelievable—a horror movie world... how could a horror movie world possibly exist?

But everyone had indeed experienced a series of bizarre events. The most inexplicable was the change in the time span: suddenly, it went from early winter to midsummer, and for everyone, it was just the blink of an eye. This alone couldn't be explained. If you tried to force an explanation like kidnapping, some prank TV show, or a government conspiracy, it would be full of holes. So, although the idea of a horror movie world is hard to believe, in the absence of a better explanation, they might as well accept it for now.

At this moment, everyone was in a small alley by the street. Since it was midsummer here, standing in the blazing sun on the roadside was not a good idea. In fact, several people in the group who were physically weaker were already showing symptoms of dizziness and blurred vision, as if they were about to suffer from heatstroke.

Henry Clark looked at the people around him, all with expressions of listening or deep thought. He smiled and continued, "The watch on our wrists—Jenny said that every member of the reincarnation team has one. The Lord God will use it to assign us tasks. If we fail, we'll either be erased or have our reward points deducted... I've already told everyone what reward points are, and Jenny also said that if your reward points are negative when the horror movie scenario ends, you'll be erased as well."

Everyone couldn't help but look at the watches on their wrists. After a moment, a handsome middle-aged man in the group suddenly asked, "Excuse me, if the reincarnation world is real, and this really is the movie 'Skyline Catastrophe,' then do we have to protect the movie's protagonist, Jared, for three days? By the way, my name is James Evans, neurologist." After speaking, the handsome middle-aged man extended his hand to Henry Clark.

Henry Clark smiled and shook James's hand, saying, "Henry Clark... let's just say my profession is a technical mercenary for now."
