Chapter 150 Escape from the Castle (3) - Level 2
Cheng Chuan knew this, of course. He was too far away from them to hear, so he shouted at the top of his lungs, "I know, I'm going to find the last button."
After he finished speaking, he walked to the end of the open space and saw a staircase at the end. However, the bottom step of the staircase had no steps. He looked down and found that there was a very empty hole below.
There was a button at the bottom of the hole; it turned out the last button was underneath.
There's a spring next to the button, which means that after pressing the button, you can use the spring to get back to this open space.
Cheng Chuan thought for a moment and decided to go up the stairs to see what was at the top. As a result, he saw a door at the end of the stairs.
He pushed it, but couldn't open it. Then he saw a lock on the door, which meant he needed a key to open it.
But where is the key? Cheng Chuan was completely baffled.
Okay, let's try to get five buttons first, but there are only four of them, how can they press five buttons?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He jumped down and estimated the size of the hole, finding it quite spacious. He then took out a hook from his storage space.
After studying it for a long time, I found it was useless. I took out some dry food, but it was even more useless.
He does have a car with enough weight, but it can't fit into his storage space. It can only lie in the control panel, and he can't use it at all once he enters a dungeon.
However, based on the research just now, even if you have a car, it would be very difficult to press that button with the car's wheels.
Because one side of the button is a wall and the other side is a spring, the spring is obstructing the car and making it impossible to achieve this purpose.
Even if he presses the car against the button, he also presses down the spring that's pressing up, so he can't get up there.
This was so upsetting. He went back upstairs, found Wu Yi and the others, gathered the four of them together, and told them what he knew.
"Does anyone have a tool that can hold down a button? Otherwise, we probably won't be able to get out."
Ning Shu thought for a moment and raised her hand: "I have a prop that should work, but I have to try it out."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they all looked at her.
Ning Shu felt a little embarrassed by the look in her eyes, and she wasn't sure if she could succeed: "I can only give it a try."
Cheng Chuan nodded: "I'll take you there."
The two approached the button, and Ning Shu took out her heavy weight. Cheng Chuan was taken aback and asked, "Which dungeon is this item from?"
Ning Shu remained silent, then truthfully replied, "I bought it."
Cheng Chuan was surprised: "You have a lot of points, enough to buy items."
He browsed the prop trading platform and found that props were generally quite expensive.
Ning Shu chuckled. Her props all had a robbery-like quality, so it was best not to mention them.
Ning Shu increased the weight and placed it on the button. Unexpectedly, it actually worked. Seeing that it was done, the two stepped on the spring and returned to the top.
After Ning Shu returned to the bottom, the four of them took their positions, waiting for the number in the air to turn to 0.
They stared at the number for a long time, and finally saw it turn into 0.
Everyone was happy, but what made Cheng Chuan, who was at the top, even happier was that he saw a golden key appear on the open ground opposite!
He shouted, "The key is here, I'm going to get it!"
After saying that, he jumped over, successfully got the key, and returned to the wall, shouting down, "It's ready, hurry up and come up!"
The other three people who responded to his call jumped up one after another, and finally the four of them gathered at the end of the stairs.
Cheng Chuan used the key to open the closed door, and the four of them successfully passed the checkpoint.
Ning Shu felt that after entering that door, everything went black for a moment, and then bright again.
She sat down at a table, which had nothing on it except a computer screen and a mouse.
A huge question mark appeared in her mind. What did this mean?
She shouted, "Cheng Chuan, Wu Yi, Huang Wa?"
No one responded. She called again, but still no one responded. Okay.
She glanced at the countdown timer; more than three hours had already passed. Just then, the system's voice rang in her ears.
Congratulations on passing the first level! You have been selected as the "Controller" character. Use the mouse to control the puppet on the screen to obtain the special materials in the glass dome of the secret room to pass the level.
The puppet is created by your other companions and is in the role of a "controlled person." You have a total of 3 uses; use them all and it's over.
Huh? Ning Shu was a little confused. Controlling his companions to do tasks was understandable, but what he couldn't understand was why there were only 3 chances?
That corresponds to 3 companions. Does that mean if one of them dies, they'll be replaced by another?
According to the system prompts, it means that you can fail 3 times. They probably won't actually fail. Maybe, like the first level, you can start over after failing, and the time flow will be faster.
"That should be it," Ning Shu analyzed, resting her chin on her hand.
At this moment, Cheng Chuan, Wu Yi, and Huang Wa, who had entered another space, found themselves in a pitch-black place.
Wu Yi was a little scared and shouted, "Brother Chuan! Brother Chuan!"
There was no response, and Wu Yi became even more frightened: "Waaah~ Brother Chuan, please don't abandon me."
Cheng Chuan and Huang Wa both found themselves in a private space, with no one else in it.
At this moment, a screen appeared in front of each of the three of them, showing a secret room and a doll.
The secret room was decorated in a magnificent European style, with purple carpets, and the whole room was very spacious.
The only two things in the secret room were the dolls at both ends and a display case with a glass cover containing a huge diamond.
All three of them heard the system's voice at the same time.
Congratulations on passing the first level! You have been selected as the "controlled player" character.
Once the game starts, you will possess the puppet. The "controller" will use the mouse to manipulate the puppet to obtain special materials from the glass dome in the secret room to complete the level.
After you possess the doll, if you can't stand it, just say "Leave" to leave the doll, but you will lose one chance.
The puppet has only three chances; if it fails to complete the task within those three chances, the mission is lost.
All three were shocked by the news. What the hell? What was a controlled being? They were to possess a doll and then be controlled by someone?
This game is really well-designed.
Cheng Chuan analyzed the wording of the system notification. He was selected as the "controlled person," so there must be someone among the four people who was selected as the "controller."
So the controller is actually his partner, you can rest assured about that.
The puppet has 3 chances, which correspond to the other three companions, something like that.
[Start the call now. The "controlled persons" can discuss and decide the order in which to perform the tasks. Once decided, please raise your hands in order.]
Once the numbers in front of you are completely filled with their respective colors, the game is complete. The game will begin once all three numbers are filled with their respective colors.
The announcement actually had a follow-up. As soon as the voice finished, Cheng Chuan and the other two saw the numbers 1 to 3 appear in front of their eyes. Then Cheng Chuan heard Wu Yi's voice.
"Brother Chuan, are you there?"
