Season 3: Chapter 26: Running is Murder for Me (3)



[Wow lol, Changbae really sucks at this lol]

[CutiePie\'s rhythm game is simply the best…]

Nearly every streamer turned out to broadcast live at G-Star, and mentions of various streamers flooded in, preventing any single spotlight. Consequently, most streamer-related posts didn\'t become trending topics. With a fixed amount of user attention available, too many were vying for the same spots.

Amid all this competition, one person started receiving rampant recommendations.

[Breaking News! Almond gets scammed]

— ??

— lol what is this? lol

— lol lol

— They inflated it tenfold lol fools lol

— That expression lol

— Does he still not get it? lol

It was Almond, fooled by the false promise of ten million won. His reaction was so amusing that it sparked further posts.

[Live stream: Money-crazed Locomotive Yu Sang-Hyeon lol]

They clipped his "Ten million won!?" reaction, seamlessly linking it to a RunGuys scene. It seemed like he was frantically running for the ten million won.

— lol lol lol

— So funny lol

— Too cute lol lol

— Running seems pitiful now that he’s been deceived

└ 222 lol

— Viewers are incredible too; they all colluded to deceive him lol

└ It’s like a joint military exercise lol

Then, this composite image emerged.

[Money-Crazed Locomotive Moneymans]

Everyone had probably seen Thomas the Tank Engine with his uncanny valley face at some point. Now, imagine Almond as a bean photoshopped onto that train.

— lol lol lol lol

— Thomas... it was your face all along that was bizarre?

— Why so handsome even there?

└ Moneymans no, Handsomemans yes

└ lol really Handsomemans lol

— “Pleasantly Uncanny Valley”

An animated gif of Almond as Thomas running on tracks circulated the communities.

[Wow, is Moneymans leading now? lol]

[He’s running live now?? lol]

[Almond playing RunGuys lol]

These posts spilled over, leading to a flood of upvotes on the original post.

20. Breaking News! Almond gets scammed

It eventually made it to the trending topics list.

— Conned into thinking he’s participating in a killer race...

— Bro… so you joined Squid Game after all.

— lol thought he really got swindled

— So, does Almond really finish first?

This interest naturally turned toward the outcome of RunGuys. It even spurred curiosity about whether Almond could finish first in challenge points.

***

“Only the top three have a chance now! The rest are too far behind!”

Realistically, the only contenders to win were the top three players. First place with the mallet, second with the rocket launcher, and third place Almond pursuing them with his bow.

“It’s interesting that the top three all have different weapons! What will happen?”

“Of course, the third place weapon seems a bit underpowered compared to the first and second! But this is Almond we’re talking about!?”

Among them, only Almond had a level one weapon and chose to not switch. He had his reasons for sticking with the bow.

“Yes! Almond had the chance to pick a level two weapon, but he skipped it! The bow probably suits him better!”

He didn’t have any grand strategy since it was his first time playing the game.

“He’s just most comfortable with the bow.”

“But the first place player, Stir-Fried Pork, is famous as a tanker.”

— Tanker, really? lol that nickname

— lol

— Stir-Fried Pork has a cool nickname and position

— A real man\'s dish

“Yes, that\'s right! Tankers handle weapons like the Wobbly Hammer well because of their crowd-control capabilities!”

During the RunGuys challenge, many professional streamers participated and most of the top performers were well-known for their skills. The first place player was no exception. He showed a considerable understanding of the Wobbly Hammer, a weapon he was handling for the first time.

“He\'s using it really well!”

Boom!

When he struck the ground with the hammer, it caused the ground to undulate and disrupted the other runners for a while.

“Perfect timing!”

He cleverly used this effect on uphill stretches or tight corners, making it nearly impossible to avoid.

“Using the hammer\'s abilities, he continues to widen the gap with second place!”

“First place Stir-Fried Pork is way ahead! Unless a major reversal happens at the next checkpoint, he\'s practically secured first place!”

“Second place must be so disappointed! A hit with the rocket launcher could turn things around!”

Second place with the Dance Dance Rocket Launcher was itching to fire it within range. However, things weren\'t going as planned. Now, he was more worried about not being overtaken by third place.

“All uses of the hammer skill are now exhausted!? But still! He’s entering the new checkpoint first!”

“Yes! What does it matter if it\'s all used up!? That\'s what it\'s there for! Currently, Stir-Fried Pork is in the lead! He looks most likely to win!”

First place was already entering the last checkpoint.

[Third Checkpoint: MacModernTimes]

The third checkpoint\'s title was quite cryptic.

“MacModernTimes?”

“What\'s this? MacMorning and ModernTimes?”

“You\'ll see once we get there!”

This was a new checkpoint with no information about it available. In such cases, the first entrant was usually at a disadvantage. If they failed, they would have to return to the start of the checkpoint. This would also give the following competitors hints about the checkpoint.

\'I need to succeed on the first try.\'

Stir-Fried Pork was tense, knowing he needed to make it in one go. Then─

“Oh my!?”

“The ground is moving!”

Ziiiiiiing!!!

It was like running on a treadmill as the ground suddenly started moving backward.

“Ah! A conveyor belt!”

“So that\'s why it\'s called ModernTimes!?”

Tap tap tap tap!

Stir-Fried Pork sprinted forward.

“He\'s advancing well despite the challenge!”

The conveyor belt wasn\'t as fast as he anticipated. Simply running could overcome it. Although he was moving slower, it wouldn’t prevent him from reaching the finish line.

\'There must be more to it.\'

That wasn\'t the end.

Clank...!

Far ahead, a giant cannon appeared.

“Something\'s coming out!”

Boom!

Something long and yellow shot out. It was a giant French fry, almost the size of a telephone pole, flying at the speed of a baseball.

"Yikes…?!"

Thump!

Hit squarely by the French fry, Stir-Fried Pork was dragged off the conveyor belt and dropped into an unknown space below.

“Ah! Stir-Fried Pork is instantly out! He\'ll respawn soon...!”

“Even if he respawns, the second place player has almost caught up!”

Although it wasn\'t a complete turnaround yet, the distance had significantly closed for second place.

“Second try now!”

Stir-Fried Pork quickly sprinted back onto the conveyor belt. However─

“Tankers aren’t good at dodging!”

Boom!

Hit by another cannon shot, he couldn’t focus properly and avoided a catastrophic fall with all his might. Still, he was pushed far back.

“This could allow second place to catch up, right!?”

“Second place can fire the rocket launcher now!”

Too much time had passed and second place was now close enough to aim the Dance Dance Rocket Launcher.

"Ha! Hahaha!? You\'re done for!"

Predictably, the second place player was panting heavily and laughed maniacally as he prepared to fire. He didn\'t get on the conveyor belt.

Click!

At this moment, he loaded the rocket launcher with the one shot he saved for such an occasion.

“Oh! He plans to shoot from outside the belt!”

Even without climbing onto the belt, Stir-Fried Pork was within range.

Stir-Fried Pork pleaded, "Please let me go just this once!"

"What do you mean, let you go? I thought I was about to throw up because of you!"

He was about to pull the trigger of the rocket launcher.

"Goodbye… What?!"

Thump.

The second place player suddenly fell powerlessly. The rocket launcher flew off in the wrong direction and exploded.

Boom!

Pink smoke rose from the stray rocket launcher. A black silhouette emerged through the slowly rising smoke.

“!?”

It was Almond, hidden in a kidney bean suit. He had shot the second place player in the back of the head with an arrow.

Almond stepped on the unconscious player\'s head as he climbed up and muttered, "Ah. I should have shot a bit later. I wondered why it stopped."

After assessing the situation, he realized that the second place player had been trying to shoot the first place player. From a distance, it was hard to tell what was happening.

Hahaha! I survived!”

With the realization that he was now truly first place, Stir-Fried Pork joyously continued running on the conveyor belt.

Almond tried to shoot him with an arrow. A rocket launcher would have worked, but it was too far to reach for a bow. The rocket launcher had already rolled far below.

‘I have no choice then.’

Almond had to compete by running. He threw his body toward the last gate.

***

“Almond is joining inside the gate!”

“And, as Stir-Fried Pork crosses half the gate, the cannon upgrades!?”

“Yes! He’s not making it easy!”

Bang! Boom!

Stir-Fried Pork sweated as fries continued flying at him.

Ha… Ha… Just let me go!”

Maybe it wasn\'t just shooting fries because it was the last gate.

Rumble rumble!

A hamburger as big as a house started rolling toward him.

— Lololol

— Hamburger lol

— Lol

— McMorning~!

Bang!

It was bursting and scattering its fillings here and there.

Boom!

— Such a mess, this mess lol

— Oh lol

— Feels like it’s bursting (for real)

Plip plop…

The fillings fell like rain. For Stir-Fried Pork, each strike was a disaster.

“Crazy!”

Stir-Fried Pork rolled this way and that, somehow surviving. He barely made his way through the ordeal. He was covered in ketchup, struggling but somehow managing...

‘Almost there.’

Yes, he could see the goal now. A crown was shining golden in the distance. If he could just grab that, it would be his victory.

[Victory Crown]

Then—

“!?”

Whisk!

Someone\'s shadow whisked past him from behind.

‘What?’

He caught up already? That didn’t make sense.

“Almond! Almond! Such incredible speed!”

“He\'s like a runaway train!!! Crazy!”

“He jumps as if there are no obstacles!”

“He avoided all obstacles perfectly… Unbelievable!!”

Almond overtook the first place player.

— Wow, this is the top survivor of the Stay Alive Challenge!

— Insane, wow

— Avoiding like this is child\'s play for a dog lol

— If you want to stop Almond, bring along a Burger King lol

“He\'s overtaken him! Almond!!!”

“Oh, Stir-Fried Pork! Are you going to have the crown snatched right in front of you!?”

Almond stood between Stir-Fried Pork and the crown. Stir-Fried Pork could not let the crown be stolen just like that.

Weapons existed here. This was a place where running was tantamount to murder!

“Dieeeee!”

Stir-Fried Pork pulled out a hammer and swung.

Whump!

“!?”

An arrow, shot at an unknown time, struck his crown.

“Huh?”

Stir-Fried Pork was dumbfounded. He hadn\'t seen when it had been shot.

“What in the world?”

To that, Almond replied, “Running is murder to me!”

He shouted as he picked up the crown.

Ding!

[Mission Clear!]

[Win and shout “Running is murder to me!”]

[200,000 Won]

— Lolololololol

— Lol

— This timing lol

— The mission lol

— Mission master Almond wow

‘What the heck is wrong with that guy?’

Stir-Fried Pork, having no idea that this was a mission, fell with a look of disbelief. Slowly, he let himself go on the conveyor belt and slid back.

“Ahhh! Almond!! Oohhh!”

“Wow! He finally takes first place!!”

Almond won and accomplished his mission. The celebration didn\'t end there.

Bam bam bam!

[BigSon has donated a whopping 1 million won!]

[Since the prize money might not be enough! Here\'s a little extra!]

— Wow

— 1 million won omg lol

— Wow, classy

— Ah... lol

— Prize money lol

He received a sudden influx of huge donations.

"Ah. A million won! Such a generous donation! Thank you! I will use it well!"

After that, a few more large donations came in.

[RubySword has donated 200,000 won!]

[Please, add mine too...]

[SoRyongPo has donated 300,000 won!]

[Wow, victory]

"Wow. Thank you! RubySword! SoRyongPo!"

Almond still didn\'t know. Why were such donations coming in just for winning RunGuys?
