Chapter 60 The veteran among the veterans
After reading the contract carefully, everyone signed their names.
All contracts were handed over to Okra.
The latter looked at it, then nodded and said: "Please look behind me. There are three doors over there. The middle door will not open, and the doors on the left and right represent red and blue respectively. So, Please enter the room according to the corresponding color. After everyone enters, the room door will be closed and the timing phase will begin. You will have five minutes to prepare to explore and deal with the next ten minutes of 'battle time'. Any questions?"
Both teams shook their heads, indicating no.
At this time, Luo Xi and five other members of the red team walked to the red door.
"Don't rush in, everyone, because the timer will start after entering. Five minutes is not long. We must communicate in advance." At this time, the fat man who came last said, Luo Xi noticed While the other party was talking, he took out a card, then skillfully transformed it into a card ring and put it on his finger.
It means to show off.
"Temporarily forming a team is also a team. At least in this level scene, we are teammates. We must trust each other and cooperate with each other, otherwise we will not know how to die. Let's introduce ourselves first. My name is Qian Lejin. I have passed four level scenes. I am an all-rounder with both brains and strength. I also have strong leadership skills and can lead the team to pass the levels.”
This fat man’s face is not red and his heart is not beating. said.
Extroverted, expressive personality.
But Luo Xi could tell that the other party was acting.
"I have cleared four levels. It is awesome. Brother Qian, you are a veteran. My name is Liu Hao. I have only cleared two levels. I am a newcomer." A young man with a strong body said hurriedly. , it can be seen from the exposed biceps that he should be a fitness enthusiast.
"Well, my name is Ma Ling. I have also passed two level scenes. I am good at calculation and reasoning." The glasses plaid shirt said at this time.
Qian Lejin looked at it and smiled: "Brother, I can see it. You look like a technical worker with your outfit."
"My name is Han Lingling. I have only cleared one scene." The person who spoke was a chubby person. Because of his dark skin and short hair, everyone thought this person was a man. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a woman.
She was very embarrassed, full of uneasiness, and didn't know where to put her hands.
"Zhang Heng, I guess I am the oldest one here." A middle-aged uncle said at this time. He took out his mobile phone to look at it from time to time. He didn't know whether it was to check the time or just out of habit.
"Brother, we can all see that you are old, but how is your experience? How many scenes have you passed?" Qian Lejin came over and asked.
"Five, I have passed five levels." Zhang Heng thought for a while and said seriously.
"Then you really need to call me big brother. Brother Zhang, do you mind letting me see your card ring?"
"What are you looking at that for?" Zhang Heng frowned, obviously unhappy.
"Brother Zhang, since we have become a team, then the next actions must be directed by someone. We can't act independently, then the meaning of forming a team will be lost. In other words, we need a captain , and because we don’t know each other, it’s best to choose a senior person who is truly experienced and capable. After all, the number of scenes that can be cleared represents a person's overall quality. If you really pass five scenes, we will choose you as the captain and listen to your orders, but you must have a certificate, and the card ring is the best A certificate.”
This was well-founded, and several others nodded in approval.
"Oh, I didn't bring it with me," Zhang Heng choked out, his expression a little unnatural.
"Oh, I understand." Qian Lejin didn't say much. After all, they were strangers to each other, so there was no need to rub salt into other people's wounds, and there was no need to ignore him and prevent others from beating him up.
He has seen many people who rely on their age and want the right to speak, but have no real materials.
Sometimes being older does not mean that you are more mature than being younger.
Maybe even more naive.
"It doesn't matter, we have something to discuss. After all, we are all in the same boat. If the boat capsizes, we will all suffer losses." Qian Lejin knew the art of language very well. At this time, he looked at the last person: " Brother, what do you call me?”
Luo Xi did not say a word, but took out the card, materialized it at an extremely fast speed, put on his 'Human Face Ring', and at the same time snapped his fingers to summon the card book that could make people go crazy just by looking at it. A card was taken out from it.
Bang~
Representation.
Hold the bloody hammer in your hand.
Then he turned around and stared at Qian Lejin: "What did you just say?"
The fat on the latter's face trembled visibly.
"Boss, I mean, if you have anything to do, you can give me orders!"
In the days of confinement, strength determines everything, and the way to show strength is definitely not to brag, but to be real. thing.
Not to mention anything else, just the card book crowded with six terrifying faces and the hammer full of blood have already explained the problem. These are the best interpretations of strength. Those flashy words are far more impactful and persuasive.
At this time Luo Xi turned his head and glanced at the okra over there. The blue team also gathered together to discuss, presumably to determine who would take the lead.
Without hesitation, Luo Xi walked into the red room. Although there are two teams, the opening time of the scene is the same. In other words, if you enter the room earlier, you can actually have more time to observe the situation in the room.
This is also an advantage.
After entering the room, the smell of books hit your face, but it seemed to be mixed with some musty smell. There was a door on all four walls of the room.
But at this moment, except for the door they entered, all other doors are closed.
The room is square, with an area of about six by six, thirty-six square meters, and a height of about six meters. A cube with a side length of six meters?
Luo Xi was a little surprised by the structure of the room.
In addition to the door, there are also bookshelves in the room. Because the roof is relatively high, high-rise bookshelves are also installed around the upper walls. There are roller wooden ladders fixed on the walls in the room. Each wall has One, among other things, there is some simple furniture here.
For example, there is a single sofa, chair and reading table. There is a catalog cabinet over there, and there is a very period lamp on the table. There are no lights on the roof, but above the four doors, there is a very simple one. wooden wall-mounted lamp, dark wood color and exquisite carvings, as if A snake with wings is holding a luminous gem in its mouth,
"This place has cost a lot of money to decorate. Look at the wood and the workmanship, it's authentic." Fatty Qian Lejin is behind Said, although he was very eloquent, he also looked around, obviously observing.
Anyone who can clear more than three scenes and get a card ring is obviously not a fool.
If you look at the day of confinement from another angle, it is more like a large 'examination room'. Every cycle day, the elite among humans are selected.
"Weird, very strange!" Ma Ling, who was wearing glasses, was also looking around. At this time, he made a sound, and then he looked at Luo Xi and Qian Lejin: "Brother Qian was right just now. , temporary teammates are also teammates, so the two big guys, I discovered a very strange thing."
"That's right, the three stooges are better than Zhuge Liang, we just have to work together and say, What did you find?" Qian Lejin asked hurriedly.
“The contract says that the first condition for clearance is to find and enter Room 23, but I just observed that the room is actually not numbered. If this room is like this, then it may be the same for other rooms. There is nothing we can do about it. Determine the number. In other words, it is the hidden number. You need to find some elements to crack it."
The latter sentence was obviously the other person talking to himself.
Luo Xi glanced at the other party at this time.
Obviously, this person named Ma Ling is the type of person who is good at observation and thinking. The other party has obviously captured the most critical link between the contract and the actual situation.
Customs clearance condition one, and the room does not meet the evaluation criteria of customs clearance condition one. From this, it can be inferred that there may be hidden digital numbers.
Except for Ma Ling, the other three people, Liu Hao, Han Lingling, and Zhang Heng, obviously found nothing. Of course, they may have discovered something, but they don’t want to say it
Luo Xi looked at the door that had not been closed at this time, which meant that not all members of the blue team had entered the room yet.
I guess there is also a clever guy on the other side who is taking advantage of the loopholes in the scene rules.
The administrator Okra said that only after everyone enters the room, the door will be closed and the five-minute preparation time will begin. However, if some people enter and others do not, this condition is not met. , in this way, at least a little more time can be given to the person who enters the room first to observe the room.
Obviously, in this level scene, the 'room' is a very important part.
Whether it is the clearance conditions or the non-clearance 'Competition Mode', they are all related to the room. For example, are there weapons that can be used in the room, and are there any 'common threats' or monsters that are about to appear? Information, or locations and devices for shelter and escape
At least some of these links will exist.
Because only in this way, the five minutes of 'preparation time' are meaningful.
Of course, the administrator Okra cannot always let someone take advantage of the loophole, so we still have to hurry up.
At this time Luo Xi knocked the hammer in his hand on the floor, making a sound.
Everyone looked at him.
"My name is Luo Xi. I won't talk nonsense. I need you to obey my instructions unconditionally. What I can guarantee is that I will lead you to win the competitive mode and get clearance rewards. On the other hand, if anyone doesn't listen to the instructions Or once recognized by me He must be singing the opposite tune or even causing trouble, then I will kill that person without hesitation." Luo Xi really didn't like nonsense. He spoke very directly and concisely. The murderous look in his eyes made everyone including Qian Lejin... I couldn't help but shiver.
In the scene, killing is not prohibited, and is even highly encouraged, even if you kill teammates, because the contract clearly states that the second pass condition is to kill eleven people in a single scene, and There are a total of twelve people in their two teams.
In other words, one way to clear the level is for one person to kill everyone except himself.
However, this choice also has huge disadvantages.
Once you do this, or plan to do this, you will definitely become the target of public criticism immediately.
"Luo Ju, I see that you are a senior among seniors. Don't worry, my character, Fatty Qian, is well-known by everyone. Just give me your orders and see if I work hard." Qian Lejin was the first to express his stance.
"I have no problem either." Ma Ling also said.
Maybe in his opinion, the six connected rings on Luo Xi’s finger are too ‘senior’.
Of course, it may be because he doesn’t quite understand the rules of the Day of Imprisonment, and thinks that there will be stuck rings after clearing three scenes. If the opponent has six, doesn’t it mean that eighteen scenes have been cleared?
That’s not a boss, that’s a giant. Only fools don’t listen to others.
