Chapter 187 Whoever Steps Left Foot First Is Guilty? !
Qin Feng was alone, standing on a 300-meter-high platform.
He glanced down.
The entire high platform is made of white jade-like rocks. It is smooth and flawless, exuding a soft white light, illuminating the entire space.
Surrounding the white jade platform is a maze illuminated by white light.
The walls of the maze are also made of white jade-like brick walls. The entire space looks very sacred, but in the distance, there is a deep and endless darkness...
"Place of Judgment?"
"What kind of challenge is this?"
Qin Feng frowned slightly.
He saw white lights emerging from various locations in the maze below.
Players one after another were ‘summoned’ in.
Through system prompts, Qin Feng discovered...
He knows many of these players!
For example, all six members of Wang Meng's team were present.
Wang Meng, Lin Liyu, An Yu, Xixue Tian, as well as the young sharp-eyed shooter and the card master uncle.
However, when entering the place of judgment, everyone was separated and appeared alone in a corner of the maze.
Qin Feng also saw the plump young woman from Guanggang, a wisp of smoke.
Even little loli ghosts were teleported in.
"Light rain at night?"
"Qin Xiaoyou?"
"Chen Wuming is here too?"
"Safety first? As steady as an old dog?"
Qin Feng was silent.
He found that a total of about a hundred people had been 'summoned' to this space.
The composition of these transported players is very complex.
He has friends from this life.
There are also friends from his previous life, but he has never interacted with them in this life.
There were enemies from his previous life.
There are even ones like Qin Xiaoyou with more complex ingredients...
At this time, these people were temporarily unable to move and could not see Qin Feng, who was invisible on the white jade high platform.
They were scattered throughout the White Jade Maze, all observing their surroundings with some confusion and vigilance...
"Heir……"
A soft chant of ancient divine words came from Qin Feng's side.
Qin Feng turned sideways and saw Asashi, the God of Judgment in white robes, coming to his side silently.
Under the white robe, her face was delicate and sacred, and a faint smile appeared in her pale golden eyes: "You can regard this challenge as a 'practice trial'."
Practicum trial?
Qin Feng was a little surprised when he heard what she said.
Can this trial still be practiced?
"But, are we finally going to come into contact with something related to the authority of judgment?"
"These players who were teleported in...could they be the subjects of my trial?"
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, looking forward to it.
Ashahisi stood beside him, raised her mutton-fat jade-like arm, and tapped it in the air a few times.
A line of light golden font appeared in front of Qin Feng.
——
[This challenge is called: Fair Trial]
[Apart from you, a total of 100 players have come to the ‘Place of Judgment’. 】
[After the challenge starts, 20 of them will obtain the status of ‘Fugitives’, and 80 of them will obtain the status of ‘Pursuers’. 】
[Please kill all the "guilty" people, then the challenge will be successful (if you kill by mistake or miss, the challenge will fail). 】
——
? ? ?
Qin Feng took a look at the challenge rules. The rules were very simple.
but……
This question is difficult to solve!
"Guilty people? How to tell if a person is guilty?"
At this time, two more lines of prompts popped up in front of Qin Feng:
——
[Fugitive camp: Gain 30% additional movement speed. The mission goal is to survive for 30 minutes. 】
[Pursuer camp: Causes double damage to ‘fugitives’. The goal of the mission is to kill as many escapees as possible. 】
(Note: After 30 minutes, the more escapees are alive, the more rewards all escapees will receive; the more escapees the pursuers kill, the more rewards all pursuers will receive.)
——
The situation is a little complicated.
Qin Feng fell into deep thought.
This seems to be a role-playing escape game.
In this game, Qin Feng needs to find the 'guilty' people and kill them all...
"Judge, you are God."
"Who is guilty will be chosen by you before the challenge begins."
Ashahisi smiled slightly, moved her lips lightly, and said two ancient divine words, and then her body dissipated into a star-like light...
It is up to me to choose who is guilty?
Qin Feng was a little surprised.
Does this mean that you can kill whoever you want? Whoever is said to be guilty is guilty?
"It can't be that simple..."
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.
He saw that after Ashahisi's white-robed figure disappeared, a pale golden button appeared in front of him - 'Who is guilty'!
Qin Feng reached out and clicked the button.
as expected……
A total of eight options appeared in front of him:
——
[Who is guilty in this event? Please make your choice! 】
[Option 1: Someone you don’t know is guilty. 】
[Option 2: Anyone who is not your friend is guilty. 】
[Option 3: Your relative is guilty. 】
[Option 4: Those who are hostile to you are guilty. 】
[Option 5: Whoever steps left foot first is guilty. 】
[Option 6: The fugitive is guilty. 】
[Option 7: The pursuer is guilty. 】
[Option 8: Those who betray the camp are guilty. 】
——
"What the hell?"
"So many trap options?"
Qin Feng could see at a glance that some options were purely meant to fool people.
Take option one, ‘Someone you don’t know is guilty’.
On the surface, if you choose this option, it seems that the people Qin Feng knows will be 'innocent'.
But, what is the standard of ‘knowledge’?
Does it count if we know each other in this life but not in the previous life?
If we don’t know each other in this life, does it count if we knew each other in the last life?
If you kill wrongly or miss a kill, the challenge will fail!
Another example is the second option, ‘Those who are not your friends are guilty’.
We were friends in the last life, but what if we are not friends in this life?
What happens if I add friends and then delete them?
Don't even think about the third option. Although it is very tempting, it seems that you can complete the challenge by killing just one Qin Xiaoyou.
but……
Qin Feng has no blood relationship with her, and has verbally severed the relationship.
In the eyes of the system, are she and I considered relatives?
As for the fourth one, he who is hostile is guilty... Who knows who is hostile to me?
What if there was once and only a moment of hostility?
In summary.
The judgment conditions for these four options are too vague!
It's not as reliable as Article 5: 'He who steps with the left foot first is guilty', at least Qin Feng can clearly define it.
"It's rather vague to define them based on their own identities. After all, the situations in the last life and this life are completely different, and I don't know what the criteria for this system's determination are."
"If we use their behavior to define it, it is still not accurate enough. After all, it is difficult for me to observe the behavior of a hundred people at the same time... Just like the Bactrian Law, the law is so clearly written, but there are still a lot of unjust, false and wrong cases."
"So, the simplest thing is to use their temporary status in this event to define it!"
"For example, the fugitive is guilty and the pursuer is guilty!"
"The simpler of these..."
"Of course the fugitive is guilty!"
"You only need to kill 20 to complete this challenge!"
After thinking briefly, Qin Feng already had his answer.
So, I reached out and clicked the button...
From the pop-up options, I selected: [The fugitive is guilty]!
