Chapter 225 Death Game 1 (revised)

Snap, snap.

Lin Xian's footsteps echoed in the dark corridor. He walked for a while and looked at the extension of the lights. It seemed that he would never reach the end, and the situation was different from what he expected. As he continued to move forward, the ground began to Water stains appeared, more and more water appeared, and the original marble floor began to turn into white tiles. Crash, crash.

There was a sound of water, and Lin Xian looked at the white tiles under his feet, silently feeling as if he had stepped into some kind of swimming pool. As he continued to walk forward, the accumulated water gradually changed from a few centimeters to no more than his feet. At this time, , the wall of the passage in front finally disappeared, and he seemed to have reached the end of the passage.

Lin Xian frowned, reached out and took off the lighting lamp and moved forward, only to find that there was a large area of darkness in front of him, with layers of water rippling away. In front of him was a huge closed swimming pool, covering more than a thousand square meters. An open space with clean white ceramic tiles all around the walls.

Lin Xian's underwater ground suddenly disappeared a few meters in front of him, and a handrail in the swimming pool appeared. In the water behind the handrail, the apparently clean and transparent water now showed a strange black color, with deep water below. Bottomless!

Under the light, there was a yellow swimming ring on the black water surface swaying gently with the water waves. Lin Xian looked around and found that except for his position in the deep pool, there was no place to go ashore at all. It was all covered with water. High wall with white tiles.

The cold water waves jumped around Lin Xian's ankles, as if carrying a strange force, dragging him into the deep pool ahead.

"What the hell is this place..."

He had just detected that there was no complex mechanical structure in this passage. Who knew that after walking for a long time, Mao didn't see it, but at the end of the corridor, there was actually a huge swimming pool.

And it looks like an endless pool that leads directly to hell.

…

In the monitoring hall of the research institute, the monitoring personnel looked a little complicated at this time. The few people in front looked back at the security director Feng Chun, who had a solemn look on his face and seemed to be a little drunk.

"Director Feng, the target has entered the black pool."

"Directly release the Black Abyss No. 1 creature, start water injection, and flood the channel!" Feng Chun said with a stern expression.

"Ah?" Upon hearing this, the researchers were stunned.

"Is this... possible?"

"Obey the order. Today, we must obtain valuable information about the target!"

"Understood." The researcher looked solemn and began to execute this cruel order.

Click, Lin now created an extended bracket directly at the edge of the channel to extend the light and illuminate a wider area. At the same time, he walked to the edge of the silver handrail and tried to look underwater.

Suddenly, a huge black shadow flashed under the water. The body was curled like a snake, and it was pitch black. It brought up an undercurrent under the water, swinging on Lin Xian's feet under the water, as if to pull him away. Pull down...

"Fuck!"

Seeing this terrifying scene, Lin Xian subconsciously took two steps back. The sound of rushing water echoed in the quiet space with his panicked footsteps, giving him a strange and strange feeling.

"Is there something down there?"

Lin Xian's face was ugly, and he glanced around. As time passed by, he didn't know how to leave here, so he looked up. Only then, dozens of meters above the deep pool, he saw A building similar to a diving platform with a small secret door at the back.

At the same time, as the water waves jumped under the light, Lin Xian saw a narrow road hidden under the water in front of him.

Rather than a road, it is more like a slender pillar standing under the water. The pillars are also covered with white tiles. You can only stand one foot on each pillar, and the pillars are one meter apart. The gaps on the left and right extend to the edge of the high wall of the Black Pool in the distance, where there are narrow stairs protruding from the wall.

It seems that he needs to step on these underwater pillars all the way to the bottomless black pool water, walk to the wall at the end, and then climb up.

Without lights, he was basically groping on a deep pool of darkness, jumping pillars in unknown directions.

And under the feet, the pillar extended to the bottom of the dark pool, and the bottom could not be seen at all, and there seemed to be some living creature swimming below.

"Who can think of these things?"

Lin Xian's heart sank. To be honest, he was really a little scared at this time.

A huge invincible deep pool in a claustrophobic space, dark, quiet, rippling black water, and unknown underwater creatures

It can definitely drive people crazy.

At this time, Lin Xian suddenly discovered that the black water that was originally at his ankles had now reached his calves. It was bone-chillingly cold, and there were waves of water in the passage!

"The water is rising?"

…

On the other side, on the researcher's screen, the surveillance was focused on almost every corner, the water surface, narrow ladders, pillars and the jumping platform above.

"The rising speed of black water has been increased to level 3. Calculated based on time, the target only has 3 minutes to reach the wall safely. At that time, level 5 water rising speed can be activated."

"Vital sign data, the current heart rate of the experimental target has increased to 105, and will soon exceed 110." The researcher responsible for monitoring vital signs reported.

"He must be scared this time." Feng Chun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the passageway under the monitoring screen with interest. "After three minutes, I was almost unable to stand on the water, so I had to swim across."

The passage stretched out like a large water pipe, and the end was right in the center of the huge circular pool.

Feng Chun stared at the direction of the water pipe in the passage, but after a while, he did not see any signs of Lin Xian coming out of the passage.

He frowned immediately

"What's going on? Why hasn't he started to move? The water has already flooded up?"

"Not sure, there is no monitoring angle in the pipe."

"Huh? Did he retreat?"

"No, the vital signs monitoring equipment can still detect the target's movements, and the target is still in the scene."

Feng Chun's face began to get anxious again when he heard this. He looked at his watch: "There are still two minutes left. If we don't set off, we will definitely not find the way."

At this time, a researcher was full of doubts: "He...he doesn't want to wait for the water to flood up and then float up with it?"

"Impossible." Feng Chun said decisively: "If he enters the black water, he will not survive for more than a minute. Heiyuan No. 1 will swallow him up and he can't escape."

"There is still one minute before the passage is flooded!" A researcher shouted.

Feng Chun's face began to become serious again. He stared at the end of the passage. A large amount of black water had been poured into it, but no human figure appeared.

"Report, the target's body temperature began to drop, and the heart rate returned to 80."

"Damn, what the hell?" Feng Chun frowned and murmured in a low voice.

Just at this time, a researcher suddenly shouted: "He... He came out!!"

"Where?"

As soon as this was said, many people, including Feng Chun, looked at the entrance of the passage, but no human figure was seen at all.

"No one?"

"There!" The researcher pointed to the monitoring screen as if he had seen a ghost and said: "He is... on the passage."

Feng Chun hurriedly looked at another screen when he heard this. In an instant, his pupils shrank sharply and saw a weird picture that he could never imagine in his life.

I saw that at the top of the back of the passage, a circular hole appeared at some point, and a lift platform rose in the hole. Lin Xian stood on the lift platform, and slowly came to the edge of the platform above, just like taking an elevator.

From another surveillance angle, a young man with a calm face slowly rose in front of the platform, then stepped over, quickly walked into the passage behind, and left the black pool.

"No?!" Feng Chun looked at this scene, and was a little confused: "Elevator?"

The expected scene of the target jumping over the deep column in the water and escaping from the attack of the underwater monster on the narrow ladder beside the wall did not happen.

At this time, the lift that rose in the passage was directly messed up by the group of researchers.

Even if Lin Xian flew up, it was still reasonable for those researchers who studied superpowers.

But where did this elevator come from?

"Supervisor, the target's mechanical superpowers seem to be different from our understanding." A researcher said with a dull look.

Feng Chun was stunned, and it took him a while to react. He said with some heaviness.

"Miss Hua once said that the target had demonstrated the ability to make some metal devices...but this..."

Metal devices, and building an elevator and a Gatling gun with bare hands, are completely two different concepts.

"Manager Feng, the target is about to enter the survival room, please confirm which mode to use?"

Feng Chun came back to his senses after hearing this, his eyes kept flickering, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Since the other party has the ability to control and manufacture machinery, then open the survival room No. 3. Even if the other party cracks it, we can get useful information."

"Yes!" The researcher directly entered the command at this time.

And Lin Xian, he walked along the passage and soon found that there was a very bright room in front of him.

Hu~Hu~

The light of the flashlight swayed in the dark passage. Lin Xian ran forward quickly while breathing rapidly. After a while, the passage became wider and wider, and bright light began to come out in front. Lin Xian's eyes condensed, and he quickly accelerated and rushed out.

Buzz! When Lin Xian rushed into the wide and bright space, a huge tinnitus hit him, his chest was stuffy and he breathed heavily.

He didn't have time to feel the discomfort of his body. He quickly looked at the place where he was at the moment. He saw that it was a huge white and bright room, empty and empty, but the floor and walls were emitting white light.

In the distance, there was a door that looked very ordinary. Lin Xian subconsciously walked forward and found that the door had no door handle and no keyhole. It was just a door-shaped device.

Bang! Bang!

At this time, something like a building began to rise under the floor on both sides. Lin Xian raised his knife and was alert. He found that what rose was some kind of huge cabin filled with green transparent liquid, one on each side. As the liquid cabin gradually rose, two strange monsters appeared in sight.

One was a dark green monster like a starfish. It looked only about one meter in diameter, but it was covered with long black spikes like steel needles, filling the entire cabin. The center of the starfish was covered with black eyes, which looked very strange.

The other one looked a bit like the white giant that Lin encountered in Jiang City, but it was much smaller, with long and thin arms and legs. It sank to the bottom of the water in the liquid cabin, hugging its legs, with its head buried under its knees. For some reason, this thing sat there hugging its legs, but it gave people a very dangerous feeling.

Lin Xian frowned slightly as he watched this scene. He didn't need to guess to figure out that these two things were definitely not for him to watch.

So without any melancholy, he walked directly towards the 'door'.

The moment Lin Xian touched the door, a red alarm began to sound throughout the room, woo~woo~woo~

[Countdown begins, 5 minutes remaining. 】

Lin Xian looked back and saw that at this time, in the two huge liquid compartments, the green transparent liquid began to slowly fall, as if it was some kind of countdown. He immediately realized that the mechanical heart was running, directly facing the door. Then scan it.

As the scan progressed, Lin Xian's frown deepened.

This is indeed a door, but it is a mechanical door with a very complicated structure. There are 12 mechanical locks on it. Each mechanical structure is linked one by one and connected to the 12 switches behind the door. Lin Xian was immediately confused after scanning. , because this mechanical structure is not designed for convenient operation at all, but is designed to make people confused.

Lin Xian finally confirmed his guess at this time. These things were arranged to test his mechanical abilities.

And those two monsters were there to 'encourage' him.

"Let me unlock..."

Lin Xian's heart sank, and his mechanical heart began to operate.

Woo~woo~

The alarms kept ringing, and the green liquid in the two liquid test chambers began to decrease. As the liquid reduced by half, the black needles of the starfish in the first chamber began to move slowly, and the needle tips scratched. There was a creaking and rubbing sound at the edge of the cabin.

[3 minutes left in the countdown]

In the bright room, several researchers were watching the monitoring screen. At this time, their eyes fell on Lin Xian.

"Report on test progress."

"Escape door opening progress 0%"

"What's going on? Not a single lock has been opened?"

"Wait a little longer."

[1 minute left in the countdown]

"Report, the escape door opening progress is 0%"

"Huh? What happened? Did he give up?"

"Quickly, inform Miss Hua."

Hua Xiaoling was wearing a black coat and was standing in front of a flashing silver door. Behind that door was the room where Lin Xian was.

In the earphones, a report from a subordinate came.

"Director Hua, there is 1 minute left and the escape door opening progress is 0. Would you like to activate the emergency procedure?"

Hua Xiaoling's eyes didn't flash, she didn't speak, she just looked at the door in front of her quietly.

[Countdown remaining 10 seconds]

"The opening progress of the escape door is 0%, and it is no longer possible to open it." Safety Director Feng Chun's face changed drastically at this time.

Squeak! ! !

In the glass cabin, the green liquid had bottomed out. The huge starfish was still twisting its spikes and making a strange chirp. The white humanoid monster also slowly raised its head.

Hua Xiaoling began to have some doubts in her eyes, and at this time, the countdown to the testing site began.

10, 9, 8

7, 6, 5

At the last second, the silver door in front of Hua Xiaoling suddenly turned into ashes, and the sky was full of ashes flying in front of her. Hua Xiaoling couldn't help but stretched out her hand and caught one of the ashes with her palm, only to see it fall on the ground. In an instant, the hand turned into smaller fine ash and disappeared into the air.

Looking at this scene, her eyes were full of surprise. She raised her head and a slightly thin figure appeared in front of her.

"We meet again."

A sharp blade fell on Hua Xiaoling's neck. The sharp electric knife blade cut off a few hairs and slowly fell to the ground.

Click, click, click.

In an instant, dozens of armed men behind her raised their guns and pointed them at Lin Xian.

The light spot of the automatic cannon in the room also fell on Lin Xian's forehead.

Lin Xian's eyes did not change, he looked at Hua Xiaoling coldly.

"If I don't see my teammates within 1 minute, you will die."

Hua Xiaoling looked at Lin Xian at this time. Not only did she not have any fear in her expression, but there was even a bit of desire and enthusiasm in her eyes. She slowly raised her hand, and everyone behind her put down their weapons. Then she turned to the assistant next to her. After signaling, the assistant pressed a command on the mobile terminal, and another door opened not far behind Lin.

boom!

An invisible shock wave struck, and a bunch of researchers flew out immediately.

KIKI walked out from inside at this time. When he saw Lin Xian, the urgent expression on his face finally relaxed.

"Lin Xian!"

Hua Xiaoling looked at the wailing researchers beside her, her face still calm.

"Since I have extended an invitation to you, naturally your teammates are also our guests."

"guest?"

Lin Xian sneered: "Is this how you treat your guests?"

Hua Xiaoling shrugged helplessly: "First of all, although you broke into the Qingshui Town Test Site illegally, I also admit that we did not test your abilities without your approval. I want to express this to you. Sorry. It’s just...normally, our partners don’t enter the institute from that place.”

She said with a frown: "Of course, I won't install a tracker on my car."

Lin Xian's expression changed after hearing this, and he slowly put down the electric knife in his hand and said, "You are right, but you didn't tell me the specific place when you invited me, so I can only use my own method. "

Hua Xiaoling smiled faintly and didn't seem to mind. Instead, she asked, "Mr. Lin, may I know how you opened the last password door?"

Password door? I unlocked the password, and Lin Xian snorted in his heart. Wouldn't it be easier to just devour it with a machine? I'm really stupid for studying the password in just five minutes.

Although the door of the mechanical structure is not large in size, it cannot be more complex than the engine. For Lin Xian, this kind of thing is like swallowing a train cart. When adding materials, it is not difficult at all.

He was not interested in answering Hua Xiaoling's question and said directly: "Okay, I broke into your research institute, and you also conducted a bunch of tests on me. Now you can tell me your purpose."

"I said, our goal is to cooperate with you." Hua Xiaoling said.

"What if I refuse?" Lin Xian said as he expected it.

Hua Xiaoling narrowed her eyes and smiled, pointing in the direction of a passage: "The prerequisite for cooperation is of course that both parties are willing. If Mr. Lin is unwilling to cooperate with us, you can leave at any time. We will not restrict your personal freedom."

After saying that, Hua Xiaoling made another gesture of invitation to Lin Xian: "Or if you have time, I can introduce our foundation to you first?"

Lin Xian and KIKI's eyes met. Since they are here, let's get to know each other.

As a result, the two of them followed Hua Xiaoling into the research institute.

Hua Xiaoling took Lin Xian and KIKI into the elevator and headed underground.

Lin Xian completely underestimated the scale of this research institute. Except for the large test sites, the research institutions were basically buried deep underground.

"Lin Xian." KIKI walked beside and asked Lin Xian in a low voice: "Did they bully you just now?"

Lin Xian shook his head. He was a little surprised by some of the research being done at the test site, and there were even strange bodies among them.

"Why can't such a big test site be seen outside?" Lin Xian asked Hua Xiaoling who was leading the way.

Hua Xiaoling said: "That's because our test site is built in a kind of canopy dome. The outer surface is covered with reflectors, and optical projection is used to project the scene on the other side on the reflectors. From the outside world, this place Everything is invisible."

KIKI opened his mouth in surprise when he heard this: "Oh my God, it turns out that your testing ground is not visible at all?"

Lin Xian said to Hua Xiaoling with some curiosity: "It doesn't look like your research institute was built recently. Was it built before the Apocalypse?"

This research institute includes ground and underground engineering, and also directly built a town and a sky dome. If such a huge amount of work was built in a few months, it would be a bit appalling. Like Underground City No. 9, it can be seen all around. I saw a lot of signs of construction, but you can't see them at all here.

Hua Xiaoling said directly: "This was originally a large-scale warfare and biochemical test base built by the Foundation in conjunction with many countries. Because it was a government background, the early construction was highly confidential and was never known to the outside world."

"Before the polar night comes, the defense level of this institute is relatively safe. If you are willing, you can rest here for more time. We can provide any help you need."

"I suggest you be well prepared, because next you will travel through the edge of the star abyss, and there will be many unknown disasters that you cannot predict."

"Why does it sound like you know a lot about the night?" Lin Xian frowned: "What exactly does your foundation do?"

KIKI also said: "Yes, what are you doing these experiments and these monsters for?"

Hua Xiaoling suddenly stopped, turned around and said meaningfully to Lin Xian and KIKI.

"To save humanity."

Lin Xian and KIKI immediately fell silent after hearing this.

"Two of you, I want to ask you, do you think the coming of darkness will be destruction or opportunity for mankind?"

"Opportunity?" Lin Xian frowned: "Everyone in this world is almost dead, where is the opportunity?"

Hua Xiaoling said as he walked: "Since Mr. Lin has a mechanical ability, he must have a very good understanding of machinery. There is a common sense in the field of machinery, that is, in a machine with the same efficiency, the simpler the mechanical structure, the greater its stability and failure rate. It will be better. The same goes for putting this law into sociology and even civilization. For an organization and a civilization, if its internal management structure becomes more and more complex and communication costs become higher and higher, then the organizational efficiency will be lower. At the same civilization level, the simpler the organizational structure, the higher the efficiency of the civilization. It will be the best civilization at present, and civilizations with complex structures will definitely be eliminated.”

"So the scientific community generally believes that higher-dimensional civilizations must have higher production efficiency. Compared with our human civilization, it is already a dimensionality reduction blow."

KIKI was confused when he heard this: "What on earth do you want to say?"

Hua Xiaoling took the two of them to a room at the end of the corridor. After pressing the password, the door opened. After walking in, they found a row of seats in the room and a one-way floor-to-ceiling window in front of it. , the window was dark at this time, and the situation outside could not be seen clearly.

"Our research institute happens to have a test in this area. If you two are interested, you can check it out. Maybe you can understand what I mean."

"Another test?" Lin Xian looked at Hua Xiaoling: "What do you want to do this time?"

Hua Xiaoling smiled faintly: "Don't worry, this test has nothing to do with you two, you are all spectators."

Hua Xiaoling motioned for the two to sit down, and then seemed to remember something and said to Lin Xian.

"By the way, this test has another purpose. If Mr. Lin is interested later, I will tell you in detail." After that, she turned around and clapped her hands.

Ka~

The lights in the room went out, and the black floor-to-ceiling window in front flashed and began to become transparent.

At this time, Lin Xian and KIKI saw that outside the window was actually an empty large room, and eight compartments appeared near Lin Xian and KIKI.

The lights of these eight small compartments lit up in an orderly manner, like a secret interrogation room in a police station. Each small compartment has dark glass on both sides, a wall behind it, and a transparent floor-to-ceiling glass in front.

The layout inside the compartment is the same, metal stools, metal tables, eight people in different clothes with silver shackles on their hands, unconscious in their respective positions, some lying on their backs, and some lying on their backs.

Outside the glass wall is a huge black space. The weak light in the room cannot explore the depths, which looks terrifyingly deep.

As the lights in each compartment are turned on, the photosensitive reaction begins to make some people's eyelids tremble slightly, feeling strange and slowly waking up.

Lin Xian and KIKI looked at this scene at this time, and their faces suddenly changed.

"What... is this for?" KIKI said in surprise.

"An interesting scientific experiment." Hua Xiaoling said indifferently.

Lin Xian's eyebrows condensed, his eyes swept across Hua Xiaoling next to him, and then fell back to the room in front again.

The room No. 7 closest to him was a young man with messy hair. He seemed to wake up first and looked at the surrounding environment in a daze.

From his horrified eyes, it can be seen that the situation at this time was completely beyond his expectations.

"Damn it."

The young man cursed in a low voice.

Immediately, the young man looked at the shackles in his hand, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately began to struggle in fear.

But the next moment, a current sound came, beep!

The shackles suddenly bit his wrist like a living thing, and at the same time a huge electric current rushed in!

"Ah!!"

Pain, numbness, worse than death!

The young man gritted his teeth and almost fainted on the spot, like some kind of punishment. After a burst of intense pain, the current suddenly disappeared.

After panting for a while, the young man seemed to realize that he had been imprisoned.

At this time, the people in the other rooms also woke up.

Swish!

With a slight sound, the partition glass of the room instantly became transparent. Everyone was startled. They looked at their companions around them in confusion and fear. The shackles on their hands made one of the women scream.

"Ah!!!"

"Let me go!!" A man shouted loudly

"Qiao Min! Qiao Min!"

Just when others didn't know why they were in this place, a man in his thirties seemed to see a familiar person.

He stretched his neck and shouted towards the third room on his right.

"Ah?! Husband!"

A young and beautiful woman heard the voice and responded quickly.

The two were husband and wife.

"Damn, what is this place!" In Room 2, a middle-aged man who looked decent shouted hysterically.

The weird scene made everyone a little confused.

Empty~

A big light suddenly lit up, and the weird sound instantly made everyone in the room quiet down.

Looking forward, I saw that there was a huge room outside the glass wall in front, without a floor, and there was a bottomless abyss below.

A correct version in 16191 book and 1 forum!

At this moment, the empty room flickered, and a huge red head slowly descended. The red head wore a strange black hat, like some kind of holographic projection.

At the same time, a monster-like low voice sounded again

"Hello."

"I am honored to inform you that you are the special guest experimenter of Institution No. 2 tonight. I believe you have noticed your current situation. I am very happy to meet you. Let me introduce myself. I am the 'Hatter', the host of this game."

The scene in front of me is really weird. A huge red head makes people shudder at the sight.

The middle-aged man in Room 2 is obviously a hot-tempered guy. He reacted and immediately slammed the table angrily

"No! I don't want to participate! Let me out, I give up! I give up!"

Zizizizi!

A high-energy electric current sound suddenly sounded, and a scream came in an instant

"Ah!!!!"

The middle-aged man's shackles sent a huge current. His muscles were tensed and he howled in pain.

Bang! At this time, in Room 6 next to the young man, a bald fat man suddenly shouted, and the skin of his hands began to turn into gray granite, and then he pulled violently, trying to break the shackles.

Lin Xian and KIKI in the room looked at each other in awe. This guy turned out to be a superpower!

Just when everyone thought that he could easily break free from the thin shackles, the fat man encountered the same situation as the middle-aged man.

The shackles were like thin snakes, tightening violently, directly breaking the granite skin inch by inch!

Puff!

In an instant, blood flowed, the skin exploded, and a scream rang out!

"Ah!!!"

At this time, the huge red head was watching the scene quietly in front of him, with a strange smile on his face.

Everyone was shocked by this scene. Everyone looked at the shackles on their hands, and a feeling of uneasiness began to spread in everyone's hearts.

"Don't break free, this thing has a mechanism!" Room 4 is a thin young man, wearing a ragged outdoor mountaineering suit. Judging from his cracked lips, he is seriously dehydrated.

Seemingly satisfied with the quiet scene at this time, the red head began to speak.

"If you are ready, the game can begin."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone panicked.

"Game... what, what game?"

"What do you want us to do?!"

"What is this place, some kind of laboratory?"

"Are you a human or a ghost??"

Lin Xian noticed that the young man in Room 7 in front of him said nothing, and kept observing the surrounding environment and people. He looked much calmer than others. At the same time, he also began to observe the people in these 8 rooms.

The man in Room 1 who tried to get up and greet the woman in Room 3 wore square-framed glasses. He looked to be in his thirties and had a somewhat elegant look.

The middle-aged man in Room 2 was very strange. In the apocalypse, he looked dignified and ruddy, and he didn't look like he was fleeing at all.

A woman in Room 3 should be married to the man with glasses in Room 1. The woman looked panicked and kept looking around and trembling.

The thin young man in Room 4 looked young and downcast. He was obviously struggling to survive in the apocalypse.

The person in Room 5 was a blonde woman with a relatively calm face and extraordinary temperament.

Room 6 was the supernatural person whose skin could transform into rock just now. He was a bald fat man who looked to be in his forties. At this time, his face was extremely miserable.

The young man in front of Lin Xian was in Room 7. On his right, in Room 8, was a girl who looked young, with messy hair and dirty body.

The girl had been keeping her head down, and only raised her head slowly when she heard the voices of people around her.

When Lin Xian saw this, he found that the girl's facial features were unusually delicate. Although she was covered in dust, she could not hide her beautiful temperament.

At this time, Lin Xian looked at Hua Xiaoling and seemed to understand that in this doomsday, this institute had found a group of people to play some kind of experimental game.

"What do you mean by letting us watch this?" Lin Xian asked directly.

"Don't be nervous." Hua Xiaoling said calmly: "This is just one of the projects in our institute. You just need to be quiet as an observer."

Lin Xian and KIKI heard this, and both noticed a subtle atmosphere from each other's eyes.

It was really strange to watch the survivors outside the window playing experimental games.

...

Below, in the experimental hall.

"It can be seen that everyone has a common question."

The projected red head suddenly disappeared, and a light came on in the innermost part of the abyss room, and everyone saw that there was a huge glass window.

And in the window, there was a mountain of supplies piled up with various foods, water, weapons, and even various daily necessities! !

Everyone's pupils shrank when they saw this scene, and even their thoughts stopped.

"The supplies here are enough for one person to live for 10 years. This will be the reward for the winner of the game." The red head appeared again.

"Then... what about those who didn't win?"

Someone asked in panic.

Others also pulled back from the shock of the mountain of supplies, looking nervously ahead.

The red phantom seemed to be alive, and seemed to be able to "stare" at everyone.

"According to the rules of the game, the eliminated players will be directly executed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed drastically!

Are you kidding? !

"No! No! No! I don't want to play this game! I want to quit, let me quit!!"

The young man in Room 4 was obviously panicked when he heard this, and immediately shouted in fear.

Zizizizi!

A numbing electric current sound came again.

The young man trembled all over, showing a weird spasmodic posture.

In an instant, a burnt and smelly mist came out of his body.

"Uh uh~"

The current stopped, and the young man who was just full of energy collapsed in pain on the chair, foaming at the mouth, looking at the red head in horror, gasping for breath, and dared not speak again.

Everyone was frightened by this scene.

It seemed that as long as there was any thought of resistance, they would be punished.

At this time, everyone was quiet, and no one dared to speak, for fear that they would be the next to be punished.

"Oh~, it seems that everyone is smart, which makes me look forward to it even more."

The red head smiled and made a sinister sound.

"Next, I declare that the first round of the game is... [Jump]"

"It"'s words seemed to hit everyone's heart hard, and the red head disappeared again.

Boom!

At this time, the floor of the huge room in front slowly rose. The floor was a square of black metal, and the bottom seemed to be a mechanical structure. Everyone only heard the sound of clanging, and those square grounds were sometimes raised and sometimes fell, revealing a huge hole.

Everyone understood it immediately at a glance.

It was just like the scenes in early video games. If you missed a step, you would fall to your death.

"Please allow me to introduce to you all. The name of this game is "Jumping". As the name suggests, it is to jump to the ground with a landing point, jumping 1 square each time, until you pass through the house and it is considered a success."

Lin Xian was a little surprised when he heard this. He had been observing carefully. Although the area where the floor disappeared seemed to be irregular, the support and disappearance time were consistent.

It changes almost every 5 seconds, and the position of the landing is generally smaller than the area with the floor.

In other words, as long as you grab this 5-second gap to jump, it should be very simple.

The eight people below, including KIKI, had almost the same idea as Lin Xian. Perhaps this kind of game is a very high test for psychological quality and on-the-spot reaction, but it does not seem to be difficult.

But the next words of the red head completely dumbfounded everyone.

"Next is the additional explanation. The participants of this game are active participants. The number of people is limited to 1. After entering the room, they will be blindfolded throughout the process. The remaining 7 rooms will give participants prompts to jump in an unknown order. "

What kind of weird game is this?

"Wait, blindfold? ? Doesn't that mean that if someone outside the venue gives the wrong hint, the participant will be killed? ! "

The man with glasses in Room 1 said in panic.

"Yes, if the game is successful, all 8 people will be alive and free. If the game fails, the material reward will be obtained by the [murderer], and the [murderer] will also be alive and free, and the others will proceed to the next game. "

The voice of the red head was like a cold steel needle, piercing everyone's heart.

This game is completely different from what everyone imagined!

"What? Is it so simple? If it succeeds, we can all leave? ? "The man in Room 1 said immediately

"It doesn't sound that difficult. "

The woman in Room 3 saw her husband talking, and she also said bravely: "What is more important than life? As long as everyone works together, we will all be free soon!"

"Wait, can the eight of us communicate and discuss? "

At this time, the woman in Room 5 who had been silent all the time suddenly spoke up. Her voice was cold and she seemed calmer than others. "I mean, before starting the game."

"Of course," the red head replied. "You have 30 minutes to discuss each round of the game. After the game starts, the room will be closed and soundproofed. If no one joins the game after 30 minutes, then everyone declares the game a failure."

"What? !!!!"

Hiss~

A series of gasps sounded, and everyone looked around with an unbelievable look on their faces.

"30 minutes? When does it start?" the woman in Room 5 asked immediately.

"It has already started."

The red head's voice was loud and echoed in everyone's heart.

Everyone saw a countdown on the screen that was counting down quickly: 27:36, 27:35...

"Oh my God! ~" The woman in Room 3 immediately covered her mouth and screamed, looking at the countdown and couldn't help trembling all over.

"I think we shouldn't waste time. ”

The middle-aged man in Room 2 looked gloomy and sternly looked at all the rooms on the right.

“Who is willing to stand up!”

“Wait!”

The man with glasses in Room 1 pretended to be calm: “This game definitely requires our cooperation, so, are there any people with special abilities among us, or do you have any special skills? Everyone can introduce themselves, maybe there will be other solutions?”

He said this very obscurely, but everyone heard what he meant.

Let the people with special abilities stand up.

But after he finished speaking, he didn’t hear a response, so he took the lead and said

“My name is Han Dong, I was a math teacher before Polar Night, I... I don’t have special abilities.”

Seeing her husband talking, the woman in Room 3 also hurriedly said, “My name is Qiao Min, I’m just a salesperson and I don’t have special abilities. Han Dong and I are husband and wife...”

“I don’t think it’s necessary to introduce myself. "

At this time, the woman in Room 5 also spoke up. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on her.

She looked cold and serious, and said directly: "This game looks simple, but there are actually two problems, that is, the sacrifice and the betrayer."

"The sacrifice needs to bear the risk of being betrayed, but for other people, there is no risk. On the contrary, the betrayer can take the initiative. As long as he kills someone, he can ensure his own survival and obtain a large amount of supplies. "

As soon as she said this, the atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

It seems that the survival of all members only requires temporary unity, but no one can rest assured. Under the doomsday, these people have a deeper understanding of human nature, and it is extremely difficult to give faith.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the young man in Room 4 looked around, nervous and couldn't sit still, so he said directly

"Then let's introduce ourselves. My name is Fang Xiaonian. I'm just a student. I don't have any special powers, but my body has evolved and I'm quite agile. "

"You all don't have special powers? Humph, all of you are pretending to be innocent." The bald fat man in Room 6 looked disdainful, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. "My name is Wang Anjian, and I have superpowers."

"Zhao Bo, enhanced superpowers." The middle-aged man in a suit and tie in Room 2 said calmly

The young man in Room 7 also said nervously at this time: "My name is Chen Jia. I am just a machine gunner of an ordinary convoy. I have no special powers."

The girl in Room 8 raised her head in fear, "My...my name is Wang Duo. I used to be a student, but now I'm a...prostitute in a large caravan."

When everyone heard this, their views suddenly changed.

Wang Anjian, a fat and bald man, glanced at her lightly and said sarcastically, "She is indeed pretty. If she were in my motorcade, I would stay and have fun."

His words made Wang Duo couldn't help but shrink his neck and tremble unnaturally, but he still lowered his head without any anger or response, only silent fear. It was obvious that what happened to her after the apocalypse was not the same. Not pretty.

When everyone else had finished their introductions, everyone's eyes fell on the blond woman in Room 5.

The woman's face changed at this moment, and she finally said in a deep voice: "Tan Meng...a person with wings and wings."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed, and the eyes they looked at her became complicated.

No wonder she doesn't want to introduce herself. It turns out that she has the ability to fly and stay in the air. In this way, this jumping game is completely easy for her!

Tan Meng's face was gloomy. Feeling the gazes of everyone, he lowered his eyebrows and said, "Don't even look at me. I won't jump up there, but I can promise that I won't be a betrayer."

"But you can fly. Even if you fall, you won't..." Qiao Min in Room 3 said anxiously.

"Hmph." Zhao Bo in Room 2 snorted disdainfully: "When the testing ground brought us here, wouldn't they consider the special characteristics of people with superpowers?"

His words suddenly silenced the room again.

It took about ten minutes to introduce myself, but there was still no result from the discussion.

"Okay, the introductions are over, who wants to participate?"

Zhao Bo in Room 2 had a condescending attitude and said loudly

After the introduction, we returned to the topic, and everyone was silent again.

There are 16 minutes left in the countdown.

At this time, Fang Xiaonian in Room 4 said submissively, "I... I want to tell you what I think."

Everyone looked at it.

"We can raise the numbers with our hands at the same time. Whoever raises the same number will go up. Of course, we all reach a consensus in advance, that is, everyone must work together and cannot betray, and then everyone will survive together."

As soon as Fang Xiaonian's words came out, everyone else began to think.

This sounds like the most appropriate and helpless way. The eight people have different expressions and seem to have reached a consensus at this time.

"Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's get started."

Then Fang Xiaonian clenched his fists and looked to the left and right: "I'll count to three, let's all show the numbers together."

The air became heavy.

"3"

"2"

"1"

Everyone compared the numbers together and immediately looked at the others.

At this time, only Tan Meng in Room 5 was holding a '1' and was successfully selected. Everyone's eyes were turned over at this time.

Tan Meng's face turned pale, and her raised hands began to tremble unconsciously. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she suddenly said urgently: "No, I don't want to participate, and no one can force me!!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Anjian in Room 6 immediately sneered: "Sure enough, it's useless, let's just wait to die together!"

Everyone had different expressions and fell into silence again. Watching the countdown decrease minute by minute, the feeling of suffocation began to well up in their hearts.

There are still 3 minutes left.

Just when everyone was at their wits' end, an extremely subtle voice suddenly sounded.

"I can go."

In the upper room, Lin Xian frowned and looked to the right, because the thin voice came from Wang Duo in Room 8.

KIKI's expression tightened at this time, and he couldn't help but secretly grabbed Lin Xian's hand.

Below, Wang Anjian in Room 6 looked at her strangely and suddenly laughed.

"Okay, I support you and will definitely give you the correct answer."

What he said was so weird that no one believed that he would really be so kind.

From Wang Anjian's point of view, he didn't take a woman who had been reduced to a plaything in the last days lightly, and he was even secretly happy that someone was willing to be the first to stand up and step on the thunder.

"Really? Do you really want to go?" When Qiao Min saw that someone was going, she quickly said decisively, "I, I, I am willing to support you."

"I definitely will!" Han Dong shouted loudly

"And I..." Fang Xiaonian also quickly expressed his position.

"I will definitely support you!" Tan Meng in Room 5 said excitedly.

Zhao Bo in Room 2 raised his hand at this time: "No matter who it is, if he becomes a betrayer, then I will definitely kill him when I go out in the next round!"

His voice was cold and he seemed to be speaking very domineeringly.

But no one seemed to care at this time.

Chen Jia in Room 7 looked at the thin female voice next to him in surprise. With a pale face, he immediately nodded his head and said with dry lips: "I, I, I support you!"

Everyone suddenly became enthusiastic. In addition to feeling incredible that someone could take the initiative to stand up, they were even more ecstatic that they had a chance to survive.

Wang Duo sat there without raising her head, her eyes were neither sad nor happy, with a sense of indifference. After saying those words, she even felt a little relief from her.

"0:00"

After a long silence, the countdown ended.

The huge red head appeared again, looking at everyone with a strange smile.

"Very good, it seems that our first challenger tonight has been selected."

After this, the other 7 people finally felt relieved.

The red head made a low strange sound

"Next, the game begins!"

Click!

At this time, the partitions of all the rooms turned dark again, and at the same time, the surrounding sounds were completely isolated.

A small screen floated on the metal table in front of the 8 people, with three buttons on it.

They are ↑ [front], ← [left], → [right].

One indicator light is gray.
