[Endless Killing: My fireball has a bug! – Chapter 300 Two choices: stay or go!]
“It’s actually a sprinkler truck! Are we…directly at the bottom of the ocean?!”
“From what I heard from the conversation between the Secret Realm King and Captain Song in the interrogation room, it seems that under normal circumstances, players cannot go out to sea! But now, we are really at the bottom of the sea!”
“Also, even though there was water all around, there was no pressure and no difficulty breathing! This is amazing!”
When Cao Dian was about to die in agony in the water tank, he greeted all eight generations of Wu Yan’s ancestors in his heart.
However, at this moment, he found that he was not dead, but was actually teleported from the water tank to the bottom of the sea. His expression changed instantly.
A pair of curious eyes looked around.
This deep sea is so deep that you can’t see your finger. It seems like an endless hell where the sunlight cannot even reach!
But their eyes can still see some things clearly.
This comes from those strange ice coffins on the seabed.
They were arranged in neat rows, emitting a cold white light like a ghostly will-o’-the-wisp.
The light was dim, but it allowed the nine people to see something.
Cao Dian, Liang Jun and Rong Jieming were all looking at the scene around them with surprise.
However, when they looked at the people around them, they found that Wu Yan, Wu Yu, and even He Xinyue’s expressions were a little frozen.
Rong Jieming was puzzled and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong? Is there any problem on the seabed?”
Wu Yan shook his head slightly, his voice a little low: “We have indeed come to the bottom of the sea. If the entire secret game is divided into levels, it is equivalent to us passing the first level and coming to the second level.”
“Isn’t this the right answer?” Rong Jieming and Cao Dian both thought it was the right answer, and felt they were one step closer to passing the level.
Wu Yan, however, shook his head slightly with a serious expression.
Zhong Qing’er also added solemnly: “Have you ever played escape room games? The kind where there are one secret room after another.”
Rong Jieming and others looked confused.
Zhong Qing’er added: “Generally speaking, players need to collect all the clues in the first secret room before going to the second secret room.”
“Because of those clues, it may be the key to cracking the second secret room.”
“We are now in the second secret room. On the surface, we have passed the first level, but if I am right, we can’t go any further.”
I can’t go anymore…
Speaking of this, Rong Jieming and several other talented people have serious problems with their awareness!
What does it mean to burn your boats? This is the real meaning of burning your boats!
They now have a choice of either continuing on and passing the secret realm.
Otherwise, you might be trapped to death in this “second secret room”!
Moreover, Zhong Qing’er immediately added in a serious tone: “What I am most worried about now is that we have not collected all the clues about the first secret room, which is the school.”
“In that case, we may never be able to crack this ‘Second Chamber’.”
Zhong Qing’er and Wu Yan are considered the leaders in exploring the secret realm.
They are naturally more thoughtful than others.
What Zhong Qing’er said was exactly what Wu Yan was worried about.
But there was no point in worrying about these things now. Wu Yan sorted out his emotions and stepped forward to take charge of the situation: “It’s meaningless to think too much now. Let’s explore the seabed as soon as possible and collect some clues.”
He added, “Also, according to the message Captain Song left me before, he said that we would meet at the bottom of the sea, so, we might run into Captain Song while we are exploring the seabed.”
Mentioning Lin Chuan, Zhong Qing’er’s heavy mood relaxed a little.
Others were also more or less encouraged.
They discussed it briefly and decided to go their separate ways again.
Because the place where they were at the moment was surrounded by two rows of ice coffins forming a “corridor”.
The light here was dim and visibility was so low that they couldn’t see the end of the “corridor” at all.
And this “corridor” apparently has two ends.
The nine people were divided into two teams and agreed to meet again after an hour, regardless of whether they reached the end of the corridor or not.
Lest they get separated in the seabed.
Fortunately, they did not get separated in the end.
It didn’t even take an hour.
About ten minutes later, the two groups of people who had acted separately reunited and shared the information they had obtained.
First up was Wu Yanyi, who simply described it: “At the end of where I walked, there was an ice door made of the same material as the ice coffin.”
“I explored it briefly, but I don’t know how to open the door.”
“But there is still a small gain.”
“When I felt the front of the ice door with my hands, I vaguely felt a word in the upper left corner of the ice door.”
“It took some effort to basically confirm that it should be the word ‘stay’.”
As Wu Yan was talking, He Xinyue, who was walking on another road, looked up and followed him closely: “There is also an ice door over there, it should be similar to the one you see.”
“However, on my ice door, at the upper corner, I felt for the word ‘go’.”
These are the clues for their exploration this time.
A door to “go” and a door to “stay”.
And two long lines of ice coffins.
Go to the door, leave the door.
Luo Shuhong thought for a moment and then analyzed: “Brother Dong also asked us before, if we could choose, would we stay in this secret realm or leave.”
“So I think these two doors should also correspond to two choices.”
“The ‘go’ door corresponds to leaving the secret realm; the ‘stay’ door corresponds to staying in the secret realm.”
Wu Yan nodded in approval, “The problem now is how to open those two doors.”
The others nodded and fell into deep thought.
He Xinyue suddenly asked: “Didn’t you meet Captain Song over there?”
Wu Yan shook his head: “No.”
He Xinyue pondered for a moment, then spoke: “I think there might be something wrong with the team we just divided.”
“What’s the meaning?”
He Xinyue pursed her lips and explained, “In fact, Captain Song also asked us before whether we would choose to stay in the secret realm or leave it.”
“That is to say, the choices we make in our hearts are actually different.”
“And the person who just went to the Ice Gate did not follow his own choice.”
“For example, I wanted to stay, but I went to the door.”
After hearing this, Wu Yan immediately understood what He Xinyue meant: “You mean, let the nine of us, according to the choice of ‘go’ or ‘stay’, form a new team and go through it again?”
He Xinyue nodded: “Maybe we can give it a try.”
Although this is a waste of time, it is better than standing there doing nothing.
Wu Yan pondered for a moment and decided to give it a try according to He Xinyue’s suggestion.
“Now, I hope everyone will not hide anything and make choices based on their true thoughts, and then we will form a new team.”
When Lin Chuan asked the question before, people like Rong Jieming pretended to be hesitant.
However, at this time, when it comes to unlocking the secret realm, they naturally will not hide anything anymore.
He Xinyue, Rong Jieming, Cao Dian, Liang Jun, Xiong Zheng, the people who had come into contact with the black treasure chest, all chose to “stay”.
As for the remaining Wu Yan, Wu Yu, Luo Shuhong and Zhong Qing’er, they chose “go” without hesitation.
Therefore, the team of 9 people was divided into two teams again according to their wishes.
Choose one person to “stay” at the door, and choose four people to “go” to the door.
Wu Yan and He Xinyue briefly discussed some possible situations that might occur next.
Afterwards, the two groups of people moved forward in opposite directions again.
This time, it took both groups less than half an hour to reach the two ice gates again.
However, the result was the same as last time, the two ice doors still could not be opened.
There is a thin vertical crack in the middle of this huge ice gate.
Wu Yan speculated that if the door could be opened, it should be at the crack and open to both sides.
So he tried to have several people try to break the door by force.
All the results were failures.
He then divided the four men into two teams and had them push to the left and open the ice gate.
However, the ice was too slippery and difficult to pry open with just hands.
Just when the four of them were getting discouraged and were thinking of other ways to open the door.
This ice door with the word “go” engraved on it suddenly opened slowly from the middle!
Just like an elevator door, it is separated from the middle by a thin slit, and the left half slides to the left, and the left half slides to the left.
Wu Yan and the others were stunned.
At this time, they were pulling at the doors on both sides with their hands.
Even a little suspicious——
Could it be that they had pushed the ice door open with their hands?
The four people who “went” to the door obviously had no intention of doing so.
The reason why the “Go” door suddenly opened was that something happened at the “Stay” door.
The five people from He Xinyue’s team had similar experiences to Wu Yan after they came to “Liu”men.
They did follow their inner choices, but they failed to open the door.
This person, like the four people on Wu Yan’s side, began to try various violent means, but all in vain.
While others were trying various things against the ice gate.
He Xinyue fell into deep thought.
Then, she suddenly made a bold move –
She suddenly pulled out a poisoned knife and stabbed it directly into Xiong Zheng’s back!
Within three minutes, Xiong Zheng was dead.
This scene made Rong Jieming, Cao Dian and Liang Jun all shocked!
He Xinyue, however, remained calm: “I just thought that ‘going’ to the door and ‘staying’ at the door seemed to be symmetrical.”
“But now, there are four people at the door that Wu Yan mentioned.”
“And there is a person on this side of the door where we are ‘leaving’.”
“That doesn’t seem very harmonious, does it?”
“It’s like a sky with an extra person at one end.”
“So I’m going to try and get rid of the extra people to see if I can gain anything.”
He Xinyue was quite calm during her analysis.
The tone is understated.
It was as if she had killed not a person but an insignificant pawn in a game.
And it turns out that she made the right bet!
As the bear was dying, the “remaining” door on their side slowly opened.
Including the “Go” door on Wu Yan’s side, they were also opened at the same time.
The door was open though.
But Rong Jieming, Cao Dian and Liang Jun all had a shadow in their hearts!
It’s because this woman, He Xinyue, is really too cold-blooded!
Just to verify his guess, he easily solved a teammate!
Xiong Zheng was lucky enough to be chosen by her.
But in fact, Rong Jieming, Cao Dian, Liang Jun…
All three of them could be the unlucky one…
Realizing this, the three of them became wary of He Xinyue.
But they were used to life and death, and there was no sign of abnormality on their faces.
