Doomsday Wonderland

982

Human curiosity is a powerful force, especially when it is a matter of life or death.

For the first time since entering the dungeon, everyone was sitting on the boat honestly like this, waiting for Lin Sanjiu to continue explaining; Feibian seemed to have not recovered from the emotion of escaping from death, gasping "ha, ha" The sound spread across half of the lake.

"Misleading? Ah, I understand," the round-faced man shook his head, "The copy did not clearly say that we cannot go ashore..."

"That's not what I meant." Lin Sanjiu interrupted him. Under the distant gazes of everyone, she took a long breath and leaned back in her seat. She had choked on an unknown amount of lake water, and now her whole body was heavy and in desperate need of rest. She just took advantage of talking to relax.

"I guess the way a person's brain operates is different from usual at the moment he is about to die... I just thought I was going to die, and I desperately wanted to grab a life-saving straw. It was at that moment that I suddenly realized." Now when she recalls that moment, thinking that she would stay in this green lake filled with corpses forever, that emotion can't help but make her tremble.

"Wha...what?"

"Think carefully about what the loudspeaker said. Did it really say, 'The water level will rise to 1.8 meters in thirty minutes'?"

"No?" Natasha asked suspiciously.

"No." Lin Sanjiu uttered two words decisively, "Now that I recall it, I find that everything is clear. If you remember correctly, you will find that when the dungeon introduced the rules, the original words were clearly, 'Once the water starts to be poured, The water level will rise at a constant rate over time, reaching 1.8 meters in thirty minutes."

She put the emphasis on the word "after", and as soon as she finished speaking, someone actually took a deep breath.

"But... this sentence may also include the 'thirty minutes' itself, right?" The round-faced man asked hesitantly.

Lin Sanjiu glanced at him. If it weren't for his gesture, Phoebe would have made a hole in her temple long ago; she couldn't figure out why he wanted to save her, so she temporarily suppressed the idea and replied: "Strictly speaking, it shouldn't be Including the thirty minutes itself, but I do not deny that some people will have such an impression. But let me say, the copy is here to mislead and imply us... Have you ever thought about why we subconsciously combine thirty minutes with Is it related to the water level of 1.8 meters?"

"Didn't you just say that yourself," Natasha immediately replied, "when the dungeon introduced the rules, you only talked about it for thirty minutes——"

"That's true, but what do those thirty minutes mean?"

Everyone seemed stunned, not understanding what she meant.

Lin Sanjiu frowned and said while gathering his thoughts: "...Think about the order in which it introduces the rules. At the beginning, the copy said that the water level in the lake would rise, but it did not say how long it would take. Instead, it changed Let's move on to the next charter rule. When it was introducing the charter rules, we asked the copy why it was necessary to charter twice for thirty minutes - until then, the copy replied, because it takes thirty minutes. After that, the water level will rise to 1.8 meters.”

Finally someone suddenly said "Oh!"

"So you see, the thirty minutes mentioned in the copy actually refer to only one thing - the length of the charter. It has nothing to do with the water filling time." Lin Sanjiu turned to Zaopeng after saying this. Looking at her, she realized that the woman who looked like the squad leader had slowly retreated away from the team members at some point, and distanced herself from the team members. "Didn't Peng tell you earlier? She said that there were two thirty minutes in the dungeon, one for renting a boat and one for water level. There might be traps here... Even if she didn't mean it, she helped strengthen the dungeon. Hint. None of us raised any objection at the time because we all accepted the hint smoothly and thought it would take thirty minutes for the water to rise."

As she mentioned the other party's name, everyone's attention suddenly focused on Zaopeng. Phoeben snorted lowly and asked, "Where are you going?"

Zaopeng stopped moving, looked up and stared at his companions without saying a word.

"Next, the copy denied this and said there was no trap, right?" Because he had to recall carefully, Lin Sanjiu spoke very slowly: "The loudspeaker said that it would be too troublesome to start the time according to the boarding time, so I started with The water injection shall prevail - however, the calculation starts from the water injection, but the chartering time is calculated! This is how we have always calculated, right?”

"In order to mislead us, the hint is more than that." She stepped slowly towards several other pedal boats gathered together, getting further and further away from the group members, and her voice rose higher. : "You should remember that it was said in the dungeon rules that you must speak out loud to renew your lease, right? As soon as this sentence was said, you probably all thought of the same possibility like me, that is, falling into the water in the thirty minute People may be speechless, unable to renew their lease, or drowned... Otherwise, why are we reminded to speak out? But can you say this is a lie? No. Because we do have to speak out. , the copy will be heard and the lease will be renewed for us.”

"But...why make such a hint?"

"In order to let the members who entered the dungeon take advantage of the rules to kill each other." Lin Sanjiu replied naturally, "Although the belongings of our group have been sealed for special reasons, why don't you also find a way? Are you using this rule to harm us?"

At this time, she did not forget to bring Phoebe to her side: "We are really lucky to escape alive... Starting from the 30th minute and 1 second, the possibility of us being drowned is very high. It has risen rapidly from 0%, and with every second that passes, the probability will increase significantly. It has already been 32 minutes, right?"

"You also killed Lewis, right?" Phoeben smiled coldly at the woman who looked like the squad leader, "Do you think I can't do anything to you because I pledged all the special items?"

"Of course I didn't kill him, and I just made an unintentional mistake." Zaopeng's voice made people think that she answered with a straight face: "There was an error of five or six seconds... isn't it normal?"

No matter how she defended herself, Lin Sanjiu knew one thing: the group's primary target was no longer her.

Just when she thought of this, there was a "boom", and she accidentally bumped into another pedal boat, and was knocked slightly - she was finally next to the other boat, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Almost all the ships that sank quickly are gone, and the ships everyone is sitting on have been holding on for a long time; just from the appearance, it is hard to tell that any ship is strong.

But if anyone among the people present really knows how to tell the difference, that person is probably a long-time friend.

"I have a question to ask her," Lin Sanjiu asked in a loud voice, her eyes circling back and forth in the other ship several times. "It's understandable to harm me, but why do you want to harm your own team members? Lewis is dead and I fell into the water, but why do you want to get rid of Phoebe and Natasha too? ?”

"Me?" The Eastern European girl was obviously surprised.

"Have you forgotten? When your boat just sank, she was the one who suggested you jump out of the water, right? At that time, Lewis had not rowed a boat close to you, and other boats were further away from you..."

Regardless of whether Zaopeng really had the intention to harm Natasha at that time, Lin Sanjiu had to say this.

Natasha turned her head violently, but the latter's reaction was very dull. "I have known for a long time that you used to be a member of the acrobatic circus. Even without the ability to evolve, your skills are still good enough." Zaopeng did not raise his voice, and Lin Sanjiu could only hear a vague idea: "It is because you are so talented and bold. , you would dare to jump off the ship, otherwise I would just give my advice in vain. But I didn’t expect that guy Li Yisi would actually move closer just because you shouted... He deserves to die. "

"You admit it?" Natasha stood up abruptly, and a series of words in her native language quickly rolled out of her lips - it seemed that when she was particularly excited, the translator would not be able to keep up with her speaking speed.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Zaopeng asked calmly, "Didn't that woman ask me why I wanted to kill more members of my team? I don't like killing people... Let me tell you the truth, because I have already Discovered which ships were strong.”

Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat, and she slowly reached out and touched her backpack. Just like the automatic rifle in her backpack, the Evolver's weapons are never limited to special items; others must have weapons too, if the situation turns into a fight...

"But I searched carefully for a long time, maybe because I haven't seen all the ships. So far, I have only found two intact and unsinkable ships. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net" Zaopeng knew very well that the only one What is the reason to prevent yourself from being besieged? "You can kill me and take away my ship... but you have to decide who will own the ship after I die. Because if I die, you will never You know how I can tell a good ship from a bad one.”

"If you are willing to tell me the answer," the round-faced man spoke almost immediately when everyone fell silent, "I will also be willing to help you resist their attacks."

He was the only person that Zaopeng did not try to kill. In other words, Zaopeng was actually willing to leave the last ship to him - and he knew how to take advantage of this at this time.

Lin Sanjiu gripped the edge of her seat tightly, gritting her teeth and saying nothing. This woman has indeed pinched their lifeline - beside her, the ship she had just docked and before she even had time to change had slowly tilted her body imperceptibly, as if she was drunk. Little by little it was eaten into the water. Whether it was an illusion or not, even the ship beneath her seemed to be starting to become unstable... She seemed to feel the coolness overflowing from the corners and cracks again.

"Don't think I'm bluffing." Zaopeng laughed solemnly, "I'm going back to unload the boat now. If you don't move, I will tell you how to identify a good boat right before unloading. Otherwise... we'll just die here together."
