Chapter 014 Biological Laboratory (II)

Bai Tao was grabbed by the mechanical arm and lifted up. She frowned slightly and pretended to be in pain.

The robotic arm paused and changed the way to grab Bai Tao.

Bai Tao took the opportunity to adjust her posture and stood in the palm of the robotic arm.

A red light swept across Bai Tao, and with a drop, she left the ceiling.

Stepping out of the world of mice, Bai Tao was placed on the laboratory table by a robotic arm.

Bai Tao is as tall as the small beaker next to her.

On the other side there are a series of huge equipment including large beakers and culture dishes.

The expected experimenter did not appear, and it was another robotic arm that tested the white peaches.

It's smaller and more agile.

The mechanical arm took out a feather and waved it back and forth in front of Bai Tao.

Baitao:?

Seeing that Bai Tao did not move, the robotic arm moved the feather closer.

Cat teaser?

Bai Tao stretched out her hand tentatively and waved the feather twice casually.

The robotic arm put down the feather and touched Bai Tao's head, as if to say good job.

It’s similar to the way Bai Tao petted cats before.

Bai Tao was picked up again and placed on the mini scale, and a mysterious number appeared under her feet.

The robotic arm wrote and drew on the side, recording Bai Tao's weight.

Then blood was drawn, and finally a bracelet was added to Bai Tao's wrist, with her number D59.

The process was very quick, and it only took one or two minutes from the time the white peaches were taken out to the end of the testing.

The mechanical arm pointed at Bai Tao's forehead.

The huge force caused Bai Tao to fall to the ground. Before she could stand firmly, there was another earthquake and she was caught and put back into the glass house.

"How is it? Is the physical examination dangerous?"

Bai Tao shook her head: "It's not very dangerous." She told her companions the testing process.

Not only was the danger not great, Bai Tao did not encounter any event that could be called a crisis from beginning to end.

All twelve passed the test.

The friendliness here doesn't even seem like a ghost story copy.

The overhead speaker blared again.

"Ding Dong, it's 8:00, little mice, time for breakfast."

Breakfast did not appear immediately. After a loud bang, a button appeared on the wall of the glass room.

A word flashed through Bai Tao's mind - Skinner box experiment

A famous experiment in behaviorist psychology that uses rewards or punishments to induce behavior in mice.

Buttons are a very important part of this experiment.

"What does this mean?"

There was plenty of time and no one was in a hurry to press the button.

The neighboring indigenous people took the lead in demonstrating. They pressed a button and breakfast appeared, which was bread and milk.

The aborigines ate with gusto, as if they were tasting delicacies from land and sea.

Bai Tao subconsciously drooled and her stomach growled.

She is hungry.

Since traveling through time, Bai Tao has not eaten.

The time between the copy and the Dream City was confused, and Bai Tao herself didn't know how much time had passed.

In the copy, no matter what abnormal situation occurs, just blame it on the ghost story.

"Are you hungry? I was just about to eat when I suddenly felt sleepy and was pulled in here."

Upon asking, we found out that everyone came in hungry.

Bai Tao didn't say anything, which was taken as her consent.

The will-o'-the-wisp boy boldly pressed the button, and breakfast appeared, "The button is fine."

Then I dipped my finger in a little milk.

"It's better not to eat breakfast. If you eat it, you will become like the indigenous people."

Except for the players, the intelligence of other indigenous people has degenerated and they are no different from wild beasts.

The will-o'-the-wisp boy didn't listen to him and put his finger in his mouth.

Shrugging and showing everyone: "It's not poisonous."

He said, "So many of us haven't found the rule sheet, maybe that schedule is the rule sheet."

"Yes, three days. When I came in, the voice said that I had to experience the life of a guinea pig for three consecutive days. So the goal of this dungeon is to survive as a guinea pig until the third day."

"The schedule is there, whether it's a rule sheet or not, and would skipping breakfast or leftovers be considered unhealthy? Whatever method you use, it's best to eliminate breakfast."

Everyone agreed with the last words and started to use their own methods to deal with breakfast.

Bai Tao was given work clothes by the company no matter where she wore them. The one-size-fits-all work clothes fit her perfectly, and Bai Tao didn't want to put things in her pockets, which would affect her movements.

Tentatively threw breakfast into the portable space.

After entering, the last food that could be put into the portable space was a bowl of maggots that looked like white porridge.

——There is something wrong with breakfast.

Bai Tao cleared her throat, attracting everyone's attention: "I suggest being cautious. Will eating food make it more likely to be contaminated by strange stories?"

Many players have a crush on Bai Tao. She was the first one to do a health check and share the strategy with everyone, and everyone appreciated her.

Because there was no rule paper and the rules were uncertain, everyone ate a little breakfast.

After hearing Bai Tao's words, many people only took one bite and put down the breakfast in their hands.

Eight fifty-five.

With a beep, all the humans who didn't press the button were electrocuted and fell to the ground.

The rest, whether they ate or not, or whether they finished their food or not, were not punished.

Another breakfast appears in front of the person who has finished breakfast.

Bai Tao thought about it and threw the second breakfast into the portable space.

This time there was no third breakfast.

At nine o'clock, the mechanical voice came on as usual: "It's 9:00, free time is over."

As soon as the words came out, everyone's feet felt empty and they fell down together.

Bai Tao had a tense and exciting bungee jumping without any preparation.

After performing four 360-degree turns in the air, it landed safely.

Bai Tao was unharmed, and so were the others.

The place where they landed was a square with various fitness equipment placed on the ground. This was a place for free activities.

"Are all dungeon transitions so exciting?" Bai Tao couldn't help but complain.

The middle-aged man got up and said, "It's like a dream. This is so common. Young, my code name, has passed three copies of the ghost story."

It is human nature to stick together. Everyone gathered together naturally. Everyone looked at each other, and the ghost-fire boy opened his mouth and pointed it out.

"The system said that there are more than 12 players participating in this dungeon? One died, so how come there are still 12 players?"

He sneered: "There's a monster among us?"

The players spread out, eyeing each other warily.

Bai Tao thought to herself, what a sin, she didn’t mean it.

The middle-aged man stood up and said, "My name is Nian Qing. I have gone through three ghost story dungeons. You don't have to be so aggressive. Everyone, please be alert. Who knows, the one who died first might be a monster?"

He asked the players to introduce themselves.

Among the players present, except for the young man, the suit man - Zhuang Xi, who passed the ghost story copy twice, everyone else, including Bai Tao, only passed the ghost story copy once.

It was natural for youth to take over the small team of twelve.

"Our first goal is to find the rule sheet. After all, we are not completely sure that the timetable is the rule sheet for this instance, so let's start..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the ghost fire boy-Meng Huo: "I found the rule sheet, but it's the rules of the fitness square."

He stood outside the crowd, calling on everyone to look at the plaque on the wall on his side.

Fitness Plaza User Guide

4. Crowded areas are prohibited in the fitness plaza. If you come to the fitness plaza in a group, please ensure that the number of people using the four types of fitness equipment is equal, with a difference of no more than 2 people.

5. The fitness equipment in this fitness plaza cannot talk. If you hear the fitness equipment talking, please stop exercising immediately and change to the same equipment.

6. The Fitness Plaza does not provide food and it is prohibited to bring food. If you bring food into the Fitness Plaza, you have the following two options: throw the food into the red trash can, or eat the food and throw the packaging bag into the green trash can.

7. This fitness plaza only has a rest area, but no observation area. If you are tired, you can rest in the rest area. Please note that the rest area can only be entered once a day. If you accidentally walk into the place with the word "observation room", please close your eyes and shout "I am in the Little White Mouse Fitness Plaza" three times, and you will return to the plaza.

8. The fitness plaza is open from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Please do not use fitness equipment outside the specified time.

There are eight rules in total, core rules 1, 3, 4, 8 and 4. Combining them, a math problem instantly appeared in Bai Tao's mind. There are twelve people in total and four types of fitness equipment. Please let each person use at least two types of fitness equipment within three hours, and the error in the number of people using each type of fitness equipment should not exceed 2. How should they be allocated?

The simplest way is of course to distribute it evenly, with each person getting two types of fitness equipment, ensuring that the number of people using each of the four types of fitness equipment is 6.

But reality is not as simple as doing math problems.

Among the four types of fitness equipment, treadmills and space walkers are for lower limb exercises and can be performed while standing, while bench press racks and sit-up chairs require lying down to use.

The difficulty of escaping from the two types of exercise is different. If she is a copy of a ghost story, she will take action when distributing fitness equipment, causing infighting in the small team of 12 people.

When we meet for the first time, there is no basis of trust and a small spark can easily lead to an explosion.

However, on-site observation is still needed. The four types of fitness equipment are placed in the four corners of the fitness square.

While others were struggling over whether to throw away or eat the food they had, Bai Tao had already started observing the situation on the spot.

She was not going to throw away the food on her body. The sixth rule [Discovery] was a blind spot, so it was enough not to be discovered. The possibility of the two breakfast items being discovered in the system space was infinitely close to zero.

Bai Tao walked around the human NPCs crawling all over the ground and walked about a hundred meters, and then he came to the area where the bench press rack was placed.

The same glass room for mice has two bench press racks and a huge counting board on the wall. I walked through four types of glass rooms with equipment, all with the same configuration.

Bad but not that bad.

What's not so bad is that the existence of the counter reduces the possibility of taking advantage of the situation.

The bad thing is that there are only two pieces of equipment in each glass room.

Rule 5: If you hear the fitness equipment talking, please stop exercising immediately and switch to the same equipment.

The prerequisite for replacing equipment is that there is idle equipment available.

Using two machines at the same time may result in the death of the person who hears the fitness equipment talking.

If only one piece of equipment is used, time becomes even more tight. It's still the same math problem. With four types of equipment and only one piece of each type being used, 12 people will need a total of 2 hours to reach the fitness time required by the fitness plaza.

Too many people means trouble. Bai Tao misses Shi Subaru (the prop) a little bit. Apart from making people feel a little socially dead, it is simply a dream love prop.

Suddenly a scream was heard from the treadmill area and Bai Tao quickly rushed over.

Zhao Xiaodong, the man whose pants were wet with fear at the sight of blood and flesh, stood beside the treadmill with a pale face. On the other side of the treadmill lay the headless body of the deceased, with blood splattered all over the ground.

There was still a clear zero on the tally board.

"Dead, someone is dead."

Now there are eleven people and we have to do the math problems again.

The young man ran over and asked, "How did he die? What did Fu do? Don't be nervous, just speak slowly."

Zhao Xiaodong's eyes wandered: "Fu said that the treadmill was safer than the others, so I went to exercise without thinking. As a result, the treadmill speed increased, and Fu's head fell off and he died!"

Bai Tao narrowed her eyes, and through his micro-expressions, she discovered that there was something wrong with Zhao Xiaodong, he was feeling guilty.
