Demon hunter's Cooking Manual

Chapter 754: Chapter 11 Intermittent Time
 

Special Selection!

As the ‘Presenter’ spoke, a line of bold and enlarged text appeared on the 10-inch screen in front of Jason, and then the text moved up, followed by icons appearing below it.

There were a total of four icons, arranged in a grid pattern.

The first row consisted of: Beast Trap, Reconnaissance Drone.

The second row consisted of: Automatic Grappling Hook Launcher, Reconnaissance Drone Model II.

Beast Trap (1 Point): This is a set of three standard traps that can be placed at will but can also be picked up by others. (Brutalizers can purchase a maximum of three sets in one game.)

Reconnaissance Drone (10 Points): This is a drone with a 1-hour flight time that can help you survey areas you wish to scout. (Brutalizers can purchase a maximum of two drones in one game.)

Automatic Grappling Hook Launcher (10 Points): This is an external wrist-mounted device that can target objects within 20 meters for a one-time grappling hook shot, binding the target. (The device comes with 5 grappling hooks, and Brutalizers can purchase a maximum of one in one game.)

Reconnaissance Drone Model II (25 Points): Compared to the basic model, this drone not only has an impressive 3-hour flight capability but also an attack mode, with 10 tranquilizer darts capable of rapidly putting an adult to sleep. (Brutalizers can purchase a maximum of one in one game.)

Jason didn’t need any special operation.

The screen automatically began the introduction.

According to the order of appearance, it started to enlarge each image one by one.

So that Jason could clearly see the text on them.

Is this the special option for the ‘Brutalizer’ who is looked upon favorably?

Jason thought to himself.

He had had such suspicions before.

And it was confirmed while he was reading “How to Properly Participate in ‘Crazy Game'” (Brutalizer version).

There were extremely detailed introductions in both books.

However, those were just pictures on paper.

Therefore, it didn’t prevent Jason from taking a serious look at this time.

After the text display, there was also a similar demonstration in animated form.

Clearly, the ‘Game’ planners were not going to play games with text when dealing with ‘Brutalizers’.

Is it for the sake of ‘fairness’?

Jason’s eyes were fixed on these displays.

About two minutes passed as he went through the four special weapons of the warrior.

Once the ‘Presenter’ confirmed that Jason had seen everything, he spoke again.

“Contestant Jason, have you made your choice?”

“As this is your first time purchasing a special selection with Points, as a ‘Presenter’, I have a pretty good recommendation: the Reconnaissance Drone.”

“As everyone knows, Brutalizers have an absolute advantage over survivors!”

“Whether it’s in strength, speed, or other physical abilities, no ‘survivor’ can match a ‘Brutalizer.’ The only problem is: as a ‘Brutalizer’ you need to find them.”

“The Reconnaissance Drone is made for this moment!”

The ‘Presenter’ introduced it with sentiment and passion.

That enthusiastic feeling was as if a salesperson had found a customer.

And even more enthusiastic than the ‘Presenter’ were the ‘audience.’

“Reconnaissance Drone?”

“Hmm, not bad, the Reconnaissance Drone is indeed a good choice, but its endurance is too poor, even with two you can only use them at critical moments.”

“That will depend on the experience of the ‘Brutalizer.’

“With enough experience, there won’t be any problems.”

“Experience?”

“I think luck is more important, whether it’s for ‘Brutalizers’ or ‘survivors,’ luck is key! Have you guys forgotten the previous game where a ‘survivor’ used a homemade slingshot to shoot down a reconnaissance drone?”

“How could a situation that’s happened only once be taken as the norm!”

“How can you guarantee it won’t happen this time?”

“Are you just being argumentative?”

“You’re the argumentative one, your whole family is argumentative!”

“Damn!”

…

The barrage of comments in Jason’s live streaming room became even livelier following an unintentional spat.

But for Jason, it had no effect.

He couldn’t see it.

Or rather, even if he could see it, Jason wouldn’t change his own decisions because of others.

Just like now, facing the enthusiastic sales pitch of the ‘Presenter,’ Jason shook his head to indicate that he did not need it.

The four special options seemed decent, but whether it was the Beast Trap, the Automatic Grappling Hook Launcher, or the Reconnaissance Drone, their usefulness for Jason was limited.

The Beast Trap was cheap and affordable, but its use not only required familiarity with the map but also depended on the appropriate circumstances—driving the prey into a certain range or finding a spot the prey had to pass through.

This was unrealistic and superfluous for Jason.

Just like the Automatic Grappling Hook Launcher.

If the target was already within 20 meters, Jason didn’t need to rely on machinery; a direct charge would bring him face to face with his prey.

The basic model of the Reconnaissance Drone, passionately recommended by the ‘Presenter,’ seemed to be a good choice.

But Jason could guarantee that the device was definitely not as useful as it appeared.

No one knew better than the ‘survivors’ what a ‘Brutalizer’ would use.

And in “How to Fight for Participation in ‘Crazy Game'” (Survivor version), many examples were listed to counter the ‘Reconnaissance Drone,’ including but not limited to diversionary tactics.

In summary, it was all about stalling for time.

After all, a reconnaissance drone with only a one-hour flight time would be useless once time was up.

And ‘survivors’ could easily cooperate to achieve this goal.

After all, the ‘Brutalizer’ controlling the drone was alone, just one person.
