194. Red Floor(1/2)
This is the case in prisons. Among the laws of any country in the world, the most imperfect part is the prisoner. The outside rules for treating citizens are useless in prison. The more fierce you are inside, the more others are afraid of you, and you can live longer. - "Dark World" npc quotation
"Candidate Feng Heng has completed the fourth exam. Because he achieved the achievement of [Only One Person Left], he will be awarded 20 points for the candidate Feng Heng. Since candidate Feng Heng is now in the [Endless] exam state, he will give the candidate another 10 points."
"In order to ensure the fairness of the exam, Feng Heng has already made the exam memory clear of the last exam."
"Please enter the state quickly, the next exam is about to begin."
[System prompt: Chat history has been cleared.]
memory?
Feng Heng carefully recalled all the data in the copy just now, but found it was very vague. He could only vaguely remember what he seemed to have guessed, and then he remembered nothing.
Forget it, since the system wants to do this, I will just obey it.
But what is the "fairness" he is talking about?
"Is anyone?"
The pink and tender part of Aitong's mobile phone screen suddenly popped up. As expected, the blue bubble always corresponds to candidate B, while candidate C is an orange bubble and himself is a green bubble.
In other words, the code name represented by your own green bubble is A?
Unexpectedly, I became a candidate A again. This code name accompanied me many exams. Can I only use A to replace it?
Feng Heng smiled, it was just a code name, so there was no need to worry about it too much.
Hey?
Why is this scene so familiar?
"I seem to be in the cell." What popped up was an orange bubble, that is, candidate C.
"Are you all prisoners participating in the escape game?"
The person who spoke was B. Although there was only one person bubbling, he understood when he saw the code name.
The prisoner codenamed A has not spoken yet.
It’s not that Feng Heng was unwilling to speak. At this moment, he once again experienced the abnormal feeling of being injected with an inexplicable memory. He now felt that his mind was very clear.
After finally digesting these memories that came from somewhere, Feng Heng took the opportunity to pick up his phone and started talking.
"It should be that damn warden who caught us in this place."
"Are you in the cell too?" Candidate C asked.
"I have been in the cell for more than twenty years." Candidate B spoke.
"No, I mean, are you all trapped in a cell like me now?" Candidate C asked tentatively, "As soon as I woke up, I found that I had a cell phone on my hand, and there was nothing but this chat box on my phone. Are you the same?"
After getting affirmation, candidate C added another sentence.
“This should be used to communicate with each other.”
Feng Heng, who has been familiar with the game for a long time, naturally would not discuss these boring issues with them. His main task now is to observe his environment and then repeat these items on the chat screen of his mobile phone.
"This looks like a very old cell, with stone walls on three sides and a row of iron pillars on one side. There is a locked iron door in the middle of the column. It seems like a horizontal walkway outside the column, about four to five meters wide."
"There seems to be a light on the top of the aisle, but it is very high and you can't see it. There is only a red brick wall opposite."
What era is this? How come there are such iron pillar cells?
Feng Heng couldn't help but complain in his heart.
"I don't know where the left and right sides of the aisle lead to? You have to stick your head out to see it."
Although he did not test it himself, Feng Heng still shared all his guesses with these "group members". He knew that these "group members" would definitely test them one by one according to the situation he said.
"These iron pillars are too narrow to stretch their heads out." Candidate B tried it and found that it was not possible.
"Not me."
Feng Heng said "tsk" and compared it slightly with his head, but found that he couldn't do it either.
It seems that the distance between the iron pillars in this ancient prison cell is quite particular.
“It seems that we are in the same environment at the moment.”
"But I have something else here."
Candidate B compared the words that appeared on the screen of his mobile phone, and then found that there was something else in his cell.
"There is a big machine in my cell, bigger than me, and it seems to be still in operation."
"Is it like a crusher, with a large groove on it and a circular discharge port at the bottom?" Candidate C interrupted.
"You all have it!??"
Candidate B seemed very confused, but after getting the two of them to confirm, he began to urge him to scold Feng Heng. Because he didn't finish his words, he was a little embarrassed now, but he held back.
"I don't know what this thing is for... Oh, by the way, I have another thing here, a wooden table, next to the machine, there is a very old alarm clock on the table, and there are many, well, there are about a dozen hydrogen balloons filled with air, and the threads of these balloons are fixed to the wooden table with tape. Where are you?"
"I also have a wooden table here, but there is only a silver key on it, and the label on it says [Master Key]."
Feng Heng glanced at the items on his desk and repeated it.
Next is C's turn—
"I also have a wooden table here, which does not have the balloons, alarm clocks, and keys you mentioned. I only have a card with pure black on both sides."
Black card, alarm clock, balloon, master key.
These should be props in the game.
Feng Heng stretched out his hand and grabbed the silver key on the table. No, it should be the silver-gray key to be precise and nodded thoughtfully.
"Hello prisoners, I am your guardian."
"You are now in the world's largest prison, Violet Prison, and the current time is exactly nine o'clock."
"This prison has the following ban: banning escape, loud noise, fighting, bribery and visiting the office staff, and suicide. If any prisoner violates the violation, he will be punished by the prison guard."
White bubbles.
He was the chief examiner before, but now he has become a guardian?
If this is the case, then the two positions of the chief examiner and the guardian are basically exactly the same, both are similar to the invigilator of this exam, and the guardian is the main person in charge of this escape game.
"Isn't this the banned broadcast content that is broadcast every day?" Candidate C murmured in a low voice.
"Hope this is the last time I heard it."
"I'll host the escape game below."
"There are three players in this game, and you are all in the same building."
"There are two ways to win this game. One is that any player can win when he reaches the surface. Two, if two players die, the remaining players will automatically win. Please note that there is another ban in this building: prohibiting stepping on the red floor."
"The game officially begins."
The disappearance of the white bubble indicates that the guardian's words have been finished.
Adding to his last sentence, it was indeed the case.
This rule is similar to that last time in that forest, which is the copy of [Astarot]. That copy is similar to the current rule, not only the conditions, but also the options are almost the same.
The copy of [Astarot] is to pull the switch and only one player is left.
And this time it was on the surface and there was only one player left.
From this point of view, the focus of this game copy is [only one player left]. As expected, the focus of the copy in the dark game is indeed on human nature.
human nature?
Why?
They could win together and leave here, but in the end, only one person could survive.
They all want to survive without wanting others to interfere with themselves.
This is selfishness.
People are always unified in terms of selfishness.
——Although they were not born by the same mother.
Feng Heng had a premonition that this time the game copy would completely become what he said before, that is, there was only one person left in the end.
He wasn't sure it was himself, but he would fight for it.
In addition to this condition of achieving it, there is another rule, which is the ban in the background of this game—
【Punishment on the red floor.】
“No trampling on the red floor?”
"But the floors here are all white?"
Candidate B and Candidate C all focus on the last sentence, no, the last word, [red floor], they looked around, for fear that they would accidentally step on the red floor and didn't know it.
But they found that there was no red floor in the cell they were locked in.
Otherwise, I would be a little confused.
