Coincidentally, Curly Hair and the short-haired uncle turned their attention to Zhen Cheng.
Zhen Cheng shrugged and took a step back. Have you ever seen an eldest lady doing hard work?
The next second, Curly Hair burst into flames and rushed towards the box.
boom!
Just as he was picking up a pickaxe, a bullet penetrated his head.
The short-haired man slowly put down the pistol in his hand. He did not dare to point the gun at Zhen Cheng, but his expression was full of caution.
The unexpected turn of events left Zhen Cheng confused. Two seconds later, she raised her eyebrows suspiciously and said to the short-haired man: "You two, don't you think that the things in the box mean that this is a competitive game? Then
Are you using it to kill each other?"
Well, if you can't kill someone immediately, try not to reveal your identity as a non-player in front of the candidates. Zhen Cheng remembered Qu Yun once mentioned this.
Hearing this question, the uncle was also stunned, his eyes bursting with excitement: "Are you the strategist of the team?! You have... cracked the method to clear the game?"
These two idiots really got their minds off... Zhen Cheng sighed: "If the rules of the game require you to kill each other, why don't you put some specialized weapons like guns and knives here?
Use your brain and think about it, what are shovels and pickaxes used for? The hole is so big and there is no way out from it, what other way out do we have?"
The short-haired man's Adam's apple moved and he said awkwardly: "Dig down..."
"Since you have done something stupid, you should bear the consequences yourself and take over the work that guy should do. Anyway, don't expect me to do it." Zhen Cheng pushed the work away logically.
Who knows whether there are monsters or mines buried underground? With the strength and handling methods shown by this guy, it is hopeless to expect equal cooperation.
"But where to dig?" The short-haired man took out a shovel from the box and shook it in his hand.
Zhen Cheng pointed to the blue sign on the side of the box that read "The truth is inside." and stopped talking.
It may refer to the inside of the box, but it can also refer to the soil under the box. Since the tools in the box obviously cannot be regarded as the so-called "truth", then the real answer is ready to come out.
Twenty minutes later, it turned out that there were no mines or monsters in the dirt. There were only expected exits.
The so-called exit is a thick reinforced concrete, rotary valve bolt-type air raid door. It looks a bit like the entrance on the top of a submarine.
Then the short-headed man pulled out a red sign next to the valve and wrote:
"Don't come in! Don't come in! Don't come in!"
Um……
"Why don't you go in and take a look..." Zhen Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at the short-haired man in the newly dug pit.
"How about you please?" The short-haired uncle said, "Don't be impulsive. In the worst case, you risk losing evolution points and kill me. In the end, you have to enter by yourself."
Zhen Cheng blinked: "Actually, did you see that yellow sign beside the pit? It said, 'Go straight is the way out.' Then the sportswear listened to the sign, and you saw it too.
I think there is something weird in this game world, and these signs are all written to trick us. You see, there is no ‘answer’ in the box, right?”
"Then why don't we go up and have a look together first?" The uncle was not fooled at all.
He used all his strength to turn the door bolt on the ground, pulled up the hatch-style round concrete flap, and signaled to Zhen Cheng with a smile that he could go in. There is no need to ask for "I don't do rough work" or anything like that.
The poor excuses deceived him.
The hatch is quite heavy. Without a superman who has experienced the baptism of evolutionary points, even a weightlifter on Earth would probably have a hard time opening the door and pulling it up independently.
After opening it, it was dark inside. A faint red light seemed to reflect from the depths, but nothing could be seen clearly.
This actually did Zhen Cheng a big favor. If the short-haired man hadn't done anything else, her only way out would have been to find a way to recite a poem and try to make the hatch open on its own like a high-tech storage box.
And if she really wants to do this, she may not have enough time left...
The short-haired uncle panted heavily and finished his work. Just when he raised his head and wanted to continue to play tricks with Zhen Chenger, he was stunned.
Zhen Cheng turned around to follow the uncle's gaze suspiciously, and saw the colorful paints gathering into a wave, rushing towards the pit like a tsunami.
The short-haired man looked at the sweeping tide of colors, then at Zhen Cheng, and finally fixed his eyes on the sign that said "Don't come in."
After hesitating for less than a second, the guy turned around and ran towards the slope opposite to the huge wave of color.
Almost at the same time, Zhen Cheng stepped into the bottom of the pit and jumped into the swing door that said "Do not come in" without hesitation.
Zhen Cheng's decisiveness without any hesitation stunned the uncle who had already run more than ten meters, and even accidentally took two steps slower.
The reason why he so resolutely chose to refuse to believe Zhen Cheng was not because this guy had insight beyond Navis and was able to see through Zhen Cheng's already quite sophisticated disguise through his micro-expressions.
It's because this guy's vision has evolved to a considerable extent. In fact, when he first entered this world, he had already stood at the bottom of the pit and clearly read the warning text on the yellow sign on the edge of the pit in the distance.
He didn't say anything to remind the two people who went over to take a look. Naturally, they had the same thoughts as Zhen Cheng and wanted to wait for the cannon fodder to explore the way.
This kind of thing is equivalent to standing on the edge of a football field and clearly seeing the words on the clothes of the spectators in the back row of the auditorium.
Zhen Cheng, who had not had many interactions with candidates for the Lamarck Game, certainly could not have considered such a weird premise when choosing to deceive people.
So the short-haired man naturally saw through Zhen Cheng's flawless performance, and judged based on what happened to the sportswear on the top of the pit that entering the cave entrance against the sign's instructions would probably lead to the same fate.
There is no certain death situation in Lamarck's game. If both the upper and lower paths are dead ends, then the only and inevitable way to survive... is at the top of the pit wall directly opposite the color wave!
The short-haired uncle made the most important decision in his life as quickly as possible.
As for Zhen Cheng, he took a gamble on whether his unique physique would survive the wave of paint caused by the paradox... and it turned out to be okay.
Not being able to suffer from Paradox Dizziness is just an appearance of affinity. In fact, if Zhen Cheng is really not affected by Paradox Effect at all, then she would not be able to use Paradox [Body is Inanimate] to change her state in Kui Mo Pond.
Got away.
Of course, Zhen Cheng is not the type who will panic and choose a path when she is desperate. Obviously she also has her own reasons.
