"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the third season of the Global Manhunt show!"
"This is a program that drives countless people crazy! Backed by the top ten conglomerates, offering billions in prize money, with hundreds of participants from various fields!"
"It's not just a game between pursuers and escapees, it's a collision of limits and extremes!"
"All participating 'fugitives' will be locked up in prison, and after 24 hours, their 'fleeing journey' will officially begin!"
"After the huge impact caused by the first two seasons and the recognition of certain societal security issues reflected, we have reason to believe that this season will be even more exciting!"
East Sea City...
At this moment, a crowd surged in the vast square, and even the noon sun couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of the crowd.
Excited expressions were spread across countless faces.
"Oh my! The third season of Global Manhunt is actually launching in our East Sea City? That's amazing!"
"Unbelievable! Global Manhunt, worldwide capture, global escape! Fugitives, facing pursuers as 'criminals,' it's said to be thrilling!"
"That's an understatement! More than just excitement, haven't you watched the first two seasons? Those escapees go to great lengths to avoid capture, hahaha."
"Indeed, apart from evading capture, they can also complete hidden tasks from the production team. Once completed, they'll receive special rewards!"
"Exactly, the rewards for the escapees are really generous. Just being selected grants a direct reward of 500,000, and the longer you 'escape,' the higher the rewards, up to a maximum of billions of dollars!"
"Billions of dollars... I can't even dare to dream of that! It's just a shame that in the previous two seasons, the longest-lasting escape was less than a week, and none of the special tasks were completed."
"Of course, due to cooperative relationships, the production team holds a certain degree of authority with the police, so who can really escape?"
At this moment, with the host's voice, discussions erupted among thousands of people on the square, creating a cacophony of voices.
In the midst of the crowd, a young man dressed in white looked somewhat lost.
What the hell... did I travel back in time?!
Su Yu looked around at the scenery and couldn't help but inhale sharply.
In an instant, a wave of memories surged to his mind.
The owner of this body was also named Su Yu.
He used to be a recent graduate in Beihai City, facing the problem of finding a job after graduation.
Later, he saw the registration event for the Global Manhunt show organized by the production team and decided to participate.
What he didn't expect was to actually get selected?
The craziest part was that after arriving here, due to his excitement and the hot weather, he suffered from heatstroke and shock, and somehow ended up here?
Damn it!
Su Yu felt a bit dumbfounded.
But the situation was right in front of him. Su Yu's eyebrows furrowed.
All about the Global Manhunt program quickly appeared in his mind.
The program had a good reputation in society, as it aimed to address practical issues.
Using fugitives to expose social vulnerabilities, such as various public safety problems.
After the first two seasons aired, the domestic crime rate had sharply declined.
Moreover, every city that the program visited experienced significant economic development.
This was one of the main reasons why the show was so popular.
Of course, the primary reason was that the show was just so damn exciting!
Global Manhunt, worldwide capture, global escape!
The program treated the 'fugitives' as actual criminals, using all means to capture them as quickly as possible!
In this context, the contestant with the longest record of escape was a participant with a background in hiring mercenaries.
But even so, he had only managed to evade capture for less than seven days before being 'captured.'
This setup was insane!
Su Yu couldn't help but marvel, and at this moment, the host's voice sounded again.
"Our friends from East Sea City are so enthusiastic, and our Global Manhunt production team is also very happy. Since that's the case, let's give everyone another surprise."
"Today, we have all the participants of Global Manhunt here on site!"
"The first one is our renowned news reporter, Bing Bing!"
Roars of excitement erupted from the crowd as a sweet-smiling girl in a white dress appeared.
"Hello, everyone, I'm Bing Bing. I'm really happy to be here in East Sea City and meet all of you—"
Bing Bing waved to the crowd.
Many people were already excited around the square.
Su Yu also looked up at the stage.
Yes, she was beautiful, but that wasn't what he was focusing on.
The main event was still to come.
Then, suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Divine-Level Fleeing System successfully loaded..."
