This was just his guess. No one would tell them the real answer, so the truth was naturally unknown.
The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, until Xiao Tangqiu realized that they had to rush to the next project. Then the two continued to support each other and walked out. Fortunately, after walking across the cliff, they found a small path with very humane signposts.
They followed the signs and were back at the roller coaster entrance a few minutes later.
Seeing them return, the only remaining otaku among the new players immediately came over and asked eagerly, "You guys are back? What took you so long? Where are the others?"
A normal roller coaster would be over in a few minutes at most, but the one they were riding was not a normal roller coaster, but a death roller coaster leading to hell.
Xiao Tangqiu smiled bitterly: "There are only two of us left."
The otaku was immediately horrified: "Are all the others dead?"
Xiao Tangqiu: "...They are all dead."
He originally thought that the remaining people would be entangled in this issue, but in fact no one cared about how those people died. As the number of survivors decreased and the number of deaths increased, the survivors naturally cared more and more about themselves.
The otaku became very nervous, fearing that he would be picked for the next project.
Apart from the new players, the other group of people had no expression on their faces and no reaction. They seemed unmoved and indifferent to the death of their companions. Even the boy who had just joined them had a numb look on his face and showed no sympathy for the loss of several lives.
This is very abnormal, but this amusement park is not normal to begin with. The boy who should have died but was miraculously resurrected, and his girlfriend who disappeared inexplicably... everything is so normal, which makes the scene in front of them seem particularly normal.
Xiao Tangqiu smiled sarcastically. At this moment, someone said, "Okay, it's time to move on to the next project."
This time, no one cheered.
Although the other group was unmoved by the death of their companions, they did not seem to be as excited about everything in the amusement park as before.
This seems to be normal.
But it seems very abnormal.
Xiao Tangqiu remained silent, but just moved closer to Tang Mianmian.
A moment later, everyone came to the third project. As soon as they arrived, another toy puppet soldier appeared, but this time the puppet soldier was sitting on a small toy roller coaster. The toy roller coaster had no tracks, but it could move normally.
"Welcome to the third project - underwater escape room!"
"Come and draw your lot, my dear players! As usual! The lucky player who draws the black ball will have an incredibly thrilling underwater escape experience! This amusement park's escape room is truly unique and will give you a thrilling experience you'll never forget!"
"Underwater escape room?"
Xiao Tangqiu couldn't help but look at Tang Mianmian. They obviously remembered the scene in the church in Damon Town at the same time, and their legs felt weak.
"Underwater? No, no, no... I can't do it!" The otaku was terrified. "I'm afraid of water. I can't swim! I'm going to drown! I must not be picked!"
Apart from them, everyone else looked numb and unmoved.
The drawing of lots began, and the otaku was the first to rush forward.
When drawing lots, he kept muttering to himself. When listening carefully, it seemed that he was saying something like "Buddha bless you, Jade Emperor bless you, God bless you, Virgin Mary bless you..." He prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in the world.
Tang Mianmian looked at him with disdain and sneered, "It's better to rely on yourself than on gods or Buddhas..."
Although this otaku's luck has always been good, which makes him very jealous, he just doesn't believe it. Is there really a lucky guy who can never win the lottery?
The next second, the otaku finished drawing the lot, and it was a red ball.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled easily: "I knew that my luck has always been good, and it seems that this time is also good."
Tang Mianmian: “…”
Next, it was Tang Mianmian's turn to draw lots.
He prayed quickly, "Buddha, bless the Golden Boy and Jade Girl, bless the Earth God, bless the Jade Emperor, bless the Queen Mother, bless the Peach Tree..."
Then he reached out confidently and touched it, and it was a black ball.
Tang Mianmian: “…”
Xiao Tangqiu looked at Tang Mianmian with disdain. What about the saying that it is better to rely on oneself than to rely on others?
He doesn't ask anyone for anything! He only asks for himself!
He sneered and reached out to touch a ball, then took a look...
Hehe, it is indeed a black ball.
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other and almost burst into tears. They really shouldn't have had any hope for their luck!
When the lottery results came out, some were happy while others were sad.
Although there were no casualties in the first round, four people died in the second round. Together with the beautiful girl who disappeared inexplicably, there were only nine people left alive. In the end, they drew a total of four black balls.
In addition to Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian, there were two people on the other side who drew the black ball. However, compared to their fearless expressions, those two people were much calmer... or in other words, much more numb.
The clown grinned as he announced the lottery results and how to play the game. Finally, he unexpectedly gave a hint: "To escape the secret room, you must find the key, and you must find the key before you drown! I'll give you a hint: the key is in the most dangerous place!"
Xiao Tangqiu's heart sank. It seemed that this underwater escape room was indeed the kind where they filled the room with water, and then they had to find the key to leave before the water reached the top of the room!
Although they had played this kind of gameplay in countless horror games, playing it on a computer was definitely different from playing it in person! After all, the protagonists in horror games were all full of stamina and had all kinds of cheats, while they were just ordinary people... No, let me correct you, except for Tang Mianmian, he was just an ordinary person!
