Chapter 21 Labyrinth 3 The clown's CPU is about to burn out...
In a flash, An Rao tore off the sticker without leaving any trace on the smooth wall. The slap that fell on the wall just now was actually made by An Rao slapping himself, just to attract the attention of the clown.
“Punish… Punish… Punish…” The knife in the clown’s hand was still raised high, but the whole person seemed to be paused, frozen in mid-air and unable to fall, and even his speech began to lag.
The player destroyed the maze and should be punished. The player did not actually destroy the maze, and the stickers did not cause any damage to the maze, so he should not be punished. The player attempted to destroy the maze but the maze remained intact in the end, so he should not be punished. The clown's CPU is almost burned out.
Finally, An Rao, while chanting the slogan "No garbage on the ground, the park will be more beautiful", folded the peeled cartoon sticker in half and put it back into the front pocket of his shirt, smiled politely at the clown, and then strode into the maze under the clown's resentful gaze.
"Boss, you are too bold!" Su Ming frowned beside him, "Aren't you afraid that he will retaliate against you?!"
"I was scared, so I didn't break the rules!" An Rao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a lingering fear, "He himself said that the locator stuck to my collar wouldn't damage my clothes, so of course a small sticker of mine can't damage the maze. Amusement parks also have to abide by the rules and can't bully customers by being big. Besides, I really didn't damage the maze. Ah! That clown is so scary! I was scared to death!"
Su Ming: ...I don't think you're scared! Any normal person, after seeing this rule, wouldn't even have the courage to touch the wall of the maze. If a piece of the wall peels off, who will be responsible?
"I just let the sticker barely touch the wall. The force is not much heavier than a mosquito hitting the wall. It will definitely not be damaged."
"Who knows?" Su Ming was a little annoyed.
"Even the unnatural world needs to abide by basic laws," An Rao patted the frightened child on the back, trying to comfort him, "As long as gravity is still effective, other physical laws should not be tampered with."
As they were talking, An Rao's team had already gathered fifteen players.
"Squeak--" The door at the entrance was closed and the lights came on. In the light as bright as day, An Rao discovered that there were no corridors or pipes like in an ordinary maze. The fifteen of them were trapped in an enclosed pure white room!
It is not actually accurate to call it a closed room. There is a circular device in the center of the four walls and even the ceiling and floor of this room. There is a black circular button in the center of the device. Perhaps this is the door to open the maze passage. Choosing to open different doors means choosing different routes.
There were no other objects on the six walls of the room that could be used to identify the direction except the round doors.
In the center of the room was a small game machine that was spinning slowly and randomly. It was a red machine that looked like a very retro slot machine. It should be the lucky draw machine mentioned in Article 5 of the maze game rules. There was a display screen on the machine, and right below the display screen was a round black button. At this moment, the display screen was flashing various cartoon patterns, like a computer screen saver.
The setting of the maze is somewhat special. The six doors are quietly closed without any stains or traces, like a dormant beast, and no one knows when it will open its bloody mouth.
“Wow…where is this? Isn’t this a maze? Why is it a room?” The girl named Xiaoyun started crying.
No one had time to answer her. Everyone was looking at her cautiously and testing her.
An Rao leaned against the wall with his hands in his trouser pockets, looking very lazy. It was a pity that he was only "seemingly" lazy. His hands in his trouser pockets were cold and damp, clenched into fists, and his fingertips pinched into his palms. He tried to use the pain to maintain basic calmness. The enclosed space, the strange symmetry, and the strong feeling of vomiting brought about by suffocation and anxiety in his chest made him exhausted.
"Any clues?" An Rao cleared his throat and asked Su Ming beside him. He had to make his brain realize that he had a partner and that someone had to talk to him.
"Well, perfect symmetry and balance, and perfect compliance with the pirate ship rules." Su Ming was speechless and complained mercilessly.
If you look closely, you will find that in addition to the round door and slot machines, there are many more strange things here: first, the pure white room they are in is in the shape of a cube, and the lighting of the room is achieved through the twelve side light strips of the cube room; secondly, the walls of the room are made of a material similar to frosted glass, but you can't see anything in the next room at all; finally, and the strangest thing, among the twelve side light strips, only the four side light strips on one wall emit green light, and the rest are all dazzling cold white light.
The slot machine, which was originally the only thing that could be used to identify direction, was spinning randomly and could not be used for positioning at all.
I have to say that the amusement park is really well-intentioned.
The settings of each side of the room are exactly the same and completely symmetrical, so when people enter it, they immediately lose the ability to perceive directions, and it is possible that even up and down are disturbed - assuming that the maze can reset gravity.
In this absolutely symmetrical environment, people's sense of direction is seriously disturbed. An Rao tried to recall which wall he first entered the room from, but found that he could not remember anything. The five senses of human beings are really pitifully fragile.
But what's strange is that if the whole room is deliberately confusing the player's sense of direction, why is there a circle of bright green light? What is the meaning of this circle of green light?
"Do you remember where we came in from?" An Rao asked Su Ming.
Su Ming also looked around in confusion and shook his head blankly: "I can't remember it at all, sorry boss..."
"It doesn't matter, everyone is the same." An Rao glanced at the expressions of the other players and confirmed that no one was spared and no one was in a good situation.
"Beep." As a prompt sound rang out, a huge red countdown suddenly appeared out of thin air in the void above the room, showing a blood-red "5:00". Almost at the moment it appeared, "5" turned into "4", and the seconds were rapidly decreasing.
Meaning five minutes, they only have five minutes to find a way out!
