Chapter 60 The Senior Among the Seniors

After reading the contract carefully, everyone signed their names.

All the contracts were handed over to Qiu Kui.

The latter looked at it and nodded, "Please look behind me. There are three doors over there. The door in the middle 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 colors. After everyone enters, the door of the room will close 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.

"Everyone, don't rush in, because the timer will start after you enter. Five minutes is not a long time, so we must communicate in advance." At this time, the fat man who arrived last spoke. Luo Xi noticed that while the other party was talking, he took out a card, then skillfully turned it into a card ring and put it on his finger.

It means to show off.

"A temporary team is still a team. At least in this level, we are teammates. We must trust each other and cooperate with each other. Otherwise, we won't know how we died. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Qian Lejin. I have passed four levels. I am a versatile person with both brains and strength. I also have strong leadership skills and can lead the team to pass the level."

The fat man said this without blushing or beating his heart.

Extroverted, expressive personality.

However, Luo Xi could see that the other party was acting.

"You've cleared four levels, that's awesome. Brother Qian, you're a veteran. My name is Liu Hao, and I've only cleared two levels, so I'm a newbie." A muscular young man said hurriedly. Judging from his exposed biceps, he must be a fitness enthusiast.

"Well, my name is Ma Ling. I have also passed two levels. I am good at calculation and reasoning." The man with glasses and plaid shirt said at this time.

Qian Lejin took a look and laughed: "Brother, I can see that you are a technical worker from the way you are dressed."

"My name is Han Lingling, and I have only completed one scene." The person who spoke was a chubby person. Because of his dark skin and short hair, everyone thought he was a man. Unexpectedly, he was actually a woman.

She felt awkward and uneasy, not knowing where to put her hands.

"Zhang Heng, I guess I'm the oldest one here." A middle-aged uncle said at this time. He took out his mobile phone from time to time, and it was unclear whether he was checking the time or just a habit.

"Brother, we can all see that you are old, but how about your experience? How many scenes have you completed?" Qian Lejin came over and asked.

"Five. I have cleared all five." Zhang Heng thought for a moment and said seriously.

"Then I really have to call you big brother. Big 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 are a team, we must have someone to command us. We can't act alone, because that would defeat the purpose of forming a team. In other words, we need a captain. Since we don't know each other, it would be best to choose a senior person with real experience and strength. After all, the number of scenes that can be cleared represents a person's overall quality. If you have really cleared five scenes, we will choose you as the captain and obey your orders, but we need proof, and the card ring is the best proof."

This made sense and the others nodded in agreement.

"I, didn't bring it," Zhang Heng managed to say, looking a little unnatural.

"Oh, I see." Qian Lejin didn't say much. After all, he didn't know him at all. There was no need to rub salt into someone's wounds, let alone beat a man who was down.

He has seen many people who rely on their age and want to have the right to speak, but have no real ability.

Sometimes being older doesn't mean you are more mature than being younger.

Maybe even more childish.

"It doesn't matter. Let's discuss it together. After all, we are all in the same boat. If the boat capsizes, we will all suffer." Qian Lejin is very good at the art of language. At this time, he looked at the last person: "Brother, what's your name?"

Luo Xi didn't say anything, 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, summoning the card book that could drive people crazy just by looking at it, and took out a card from it.

bang~
Materialize.

The blood-stained hammer was held in his hand.

Then he turned his head and stared at Qian Lejin: "What did you just say?"

The fat on the latter's face trembled noticeably.

"Boss, I mean, I need your instructions!"

During the days of confinement, strength determines everything, and the way to demonstrate strength is definitely not to brag, but to do real things.

Apart from anything else, just the card album filled with six terrifying human faces and the hammer covered in blood, these have already explained the problem. These are the best interpretation of strength and are much more impactful and convincing than those flashy words.

At this time, Luo Xi turned his head and glanced at Qiu Kui over there. The blue team also gathered together to discuss, probably to decide who would take the lead.

Without hesitation, Luo Xi walked into the red room. Although there were two teams, the opening time of the scene was the same, which meant that if they entered the room earlier, they would actually have more time to observe the situation in the room.

This is also an advantage.

After entering the room, the smell of books hits you in the face, but there seems to be some musty smell mixed in. There is a door on each of the four walls around the room.

But at this moment, except for the door they came in, all other doors were closed.

The room is a square, with an area of ​​about six by six, thirty-six square meters, and a height of almost six meters. A cube with a side length of six meters?

Luo Xi was somewhat surprised by the structure of the room.

In addition to the door, there are bookshelves in the room. Because the ceiling is relatively high, high-rise bookshelves are also installed around the walls above. There are roller wooden ladders fixed to the walls in the room, one on each wall. In addition, there are some simple furniture here.

For example, there are single sofas, chairs and reading tables. There is a catalog cabinet over there. There is a very old-fashioned table lamp on the table. There is no light on the ceiling, but above the four doors, there is a very simple wooden wall-mounted lamp. The dark wood color matches the exquisite carvings, as if a winged snake is holding a glowing gem.

"A lot of money was spent on decorating this place. Look at the wood and the workmanship. They are so authentic." Fatty Qian Lejin said from the back. Although he was very talkative, he was also looking around, obviously observing.

Anyone who can clear more than three scenes and obtain a card ring is obviously not a fool.

If we look at the Day of Confinement from another angle, it is more like a large-scale "examination hall". Every cycle day is selecting the elites among humans.

"Strange, 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: "What Brother Qian said just now is right, temporary teammates are also teammates, so two big guys, I found something very strange."

"That's right. Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. We should work together. Tell me, what have you discovered?" Qian Lejin asked hurriedly.

"The contract says that the first condition for passing the level is to find and enter room 23, but I just observed that the rooms are actually not numbered. If this room is like this, then it may be the same for other rooms. There is no way to determine the number. Or, it is a hidden number that requires finding some elements to crack it."

The latter sentence was obviously the other party talking to himself.

Luo Xi glanced at the other person at this time.

It is obvious that this man named Ma Ling is the kind of person who is good at observation and thinking. He has obviously captured the most critical link between the contract and the actual situation.

Pass condition one, and the fact that there are no criteria for passing condition one in the room, 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 did not find anything. Of course, they may have found something but did not want to say it.
At this time, Luo Xi looked at the door which had not been closed yet, which meant that not all members of the blue team had entered the room yet.

I guess there are some clever guys on the other side who are trying to exploit loopholes in the scene rules.

Administrator Qiu Kui said that the door will be closed and the five-minute preparation time will begin only after all people have entered the room. However, if some people go in and others do not, this condition will not be met. In this way, at least those who enter the room first can have more time 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 "competitive mode", they are all related to the room. For example, are there any weapons that can be used in the room, is there any information about the upcoming "common threats" and monsters, or the locations and devices that can be avoided and escaped?
At least some of these links will exist.

Because only in this way, the five minutes of 'preparation time' will be meaningful.

Of course, the administrator Qiu Kui can't just let anyone take advantage of loopholes forever, 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 waste time. I need you to obey my orders unconditionally. What I can guarantee is that I will lead you to win the competitive mode and get the rewards for passing the level. On the other hand, if anyone disobeys orders or if I determine that he is singing a different tune or even making trouble, I will kill that person without hesitation." Luo Xi really doesn't like nonsense. What he said was very direct and concise. The murderous look in his eyes made everyone, including Qian Lejin, shudder.

Killing is not prohibited in the scene, and is even highly encouraged, even if it is a teammate killed, because it is clearly written in the contract that the second condition for passing the level is to kill eleven people in a single scene, and their two teams have a total of twelve people.

That is to say, one of the ways to clear the level is for one person to kill everyone except himself.

However, this option also has huge disadvantages.

Once you do this, or plan to do this, you will definitely become the target of public criticism.

"Luo Ju, I can tell at first glance that you are a senior among seniors. Don't worry, my character as Fatty Qian is well-known to all. Just give me your orders and see if I can put in the effort." Qian Lejin was the first to express his opinion.

"That's fine with me too." Ma Ling also said.

Maybe in his opinion, the six connected card rings on Luo Xi's fingers were too "senior".

Of course, it might be because he didn't quite understand the rules of the Day of Confinement, and thought that clearing three scenes would result in a stuck ring. But the other party had six, so didn't that mean he had cleared eighteen scenes?
That's not a big boss, that's a giant boss. Only a fool wouldn't listen to him.
