The bus swayed towards the third mission location.
Batman, Natasha, and Batman were sitting in the first row of the bus, while Schiller was sitting in the third row from the bottom. The three people in the front were looking at each other intently. Natasha was the first to speak: "Do you think he's over the top?"
Is it becoming more and more abnormal?”
Natasha, who was sitting between the two of them, turned her head slightly, turned her eyes to the extreme angle, glanced at Schiller behind her, and said: "If he continues to hold it in like this, he will go crazy, and we will be the unlucky ones.
.”
The two Batmans also turned their heads slightly to one side in unison and glanced at Schiller with their peripheral vision.
Schiller's expression was very calm, and he was even in the mood to turn his head and look out the window to enjoy the scenery. However, the sense of calm before the storm became stronger and stronger. Schiller seemed to be a dark cloud compressed to the extreme. I don't know when.
There was lightning and thunder, and a violent storm was coming.
"Have you all seen him go crazy?" Bei Bat turned to look at the two people beside him, then looked back at Schiller and said: "His mental state may indeed have some problems, but after all, our physical fitness has been weakened, and he
also……"
Then he saw Natasana looking at him like she was mentally retarded.
"Have you not seen such a madman?" Batman said another affirmative sentence. He finally turned his head and looked directly at Batman for the first time and said: "Soon after you return to the real world, you will see
Neither one's own body nor the external environment can stop this group of lunatics, their madness is the best weapon."
Beibao's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He took a deep breath and said: "I also feel a little confused. Can we talk about the games we have experienced in the past two days?"
It’s so difficult that it can even be said to be a little too easy.”
"This looks more like a real game than a truly cruel competition of force or intelligence. The first two murderers are both liars. One uses his transformation ability, and the other hides in the crowd. This is really not a threat.
.”
"I have a hunch, you can think of it as my intuition." Natasha slowly frowned, put away her playful expression, and said with a serious attitude: "Do you still remember the name of this game? Tokaru
Talking about it, Boccaccio used several stories in ten days to satirize various dark deeds of the church, and the number '3' plays an important role in Christian culture."
"You mean there will be a qualitative change in the third game?" Beibao thought for a moment and said: "But I really can't guess the method they use to increase the difficulty. Is it to continue to weaken our physical strength? Or to let people kill people.
The devil becomes stronger?"
Batman shook his head and said: "I don't know what happened in the first few games you participated in, but at least the two games I participated in have a common attribute, that is, they are more or less tests.
People’s hearts.”
Batman relaxed his body slightly, leaned back in his chair and recalled: "It seems that the organizer or the game planners he invited are game theory enthusiasts. They like to create dilemmas or difficult choices, and like to use
The game becomes a zero-sum game that likes to make people suspicious of each other.”
"But the two games we have experienced do not reflect similar properties. They are more like brain teasers or riddles. As long as you grasp one key point, you can solve the mystery of the entire game."
"But obviously the organizer knows something about all the contestants. It's impossible for him not to know that such a puzzle is completely childish for us."
"The doctor's current state is not so much depressed as bored. He thinks these games are not exciting enough. From a madman's point of view, this is indeed the case, and there are at least two madmen in our team."
Natasha and Beiba looked at each other, and then turned away their heads. It was obvious that they had different choices for the two lunatics.
"We all know that the game cannot be played smoothly like this." Natasha said: "I don't know if you have ever played video games. When I was in Dr. Schiller's clinic, I often saw others playing them. The more difficult the games are.
, the novice tutorials will be longer, and some will even have a separate level to teach novice players how to play the game."
"You mean, the two days we have gone through now are actually just tutorials for beginners?" Beibao asked with some confusion.
"It's not impossible." Schiller said suddenly, and his tone was obviously saying that it was best.
The atmosphere in the car became quiet, and everyone was speculating that if the difficulty of the game would really increase suddenly at a certain point in time, what would be the method of improvement, and what would they do if the game really became difficult?
how to respond.
More importantly, if the game continues smoothly like this, when will Schiller break out?
The bus drove along the road, and after passing through a period of thick fog, a tall black building appeared in front of everyone.
It was a huge arena.
It looks like a Roman Colosseum from the glorious period made of obsidian and other materials, but without the elaborate and complicated decorative style. The whole thing is wide open and closed, and the supports at some corners are made of metal, while Batman
You can instinctively see from the details of the mechanical structure that this is more than just a building.
The four of them stood in front of the stop sign and looked at the entire building, but the owner of this arena obviously didn't want them to wait any longer.
Accompanied by a heavy friction sound, the almost towering black door slowly opened, and a small black figure stood in the middle of the open door and saluted everyone.
Looking carefully, it turned out to be an obsidian robot. The body was made of the same black stone as the building, but the joints were made of precise mechanical parts. The horizontal striped eyes were shining with golden light.
"Everyone, please follow me, the game is about to start."
Several people followed the obsidian robot and walked into the arena through the gate. As soon as they passed through the long hallway, they discovered that the center of the arena was an extremely open circular space, with no end visible at a glance.
Suddenly, a projection appeared above the arena. It was a huge figure emitting colorful light, and his voice was almost deafening when it sounded.
"Welcome to the Gem Arena!"
After the words fell, brightly colored rays of light shot out from around the center of the circle. Row after row of seats rose up from the center of the circle, spreading to the edge of the building like surging waves, and it was filled with people of all colors.
A robot whose body is made of gems.
They let out fierce cheers, and their eyes flashed with lights of different colors, covering the entire arena in a gorgeous and dreamy atmosphere.
"It is often said that human beings' beautiful qualities are like gems of various colors, which can emit dazzling light at all times. However, the extremely beautiful crystal structure of gems also makes them fragile and collapses at the touch of a touch. Are they eternally bright or fleeting?
?Duelists, give your answers!"
"Bang! Bang!"
Two huge cone-shaped gems, one red and one blue, fell from the air and smashed into the ground, sending up thick smoke.
Above the two gems, a huge word appeared - "Humanity".
The blue gem has brilliance written on it, and the red gem has fragility written on it.
The huge figure stared at the four people present with golden eyes and said: "This is how the arena is played. Please use your steps to make your choice!"
The four of them paused for a moment at the same time, and then walked towards the red gem with "Fragile" written on it in unison without looking back.
The gem man was stunned.
He slapped his hands on the edge of the arena, leaned his body forward, and lowered his huge head above the four people, saying, "Aren't you human? Are you so pessimistic about your own race?"
Then he stretched out two huge palms, grabbed two gems, crushed them, and inserted two new gems farther away. The blue one said "Although fragile but still maintainable", and the red one said "Although fragile, it can still be maintained".
The one that says "Too fragile."
Several people walked toward the red without looking back.
"Aren't you superheroes?!!" the giant gem man roared: "Can't you have some confidence in your compatriots?!!"
The two Batmans squinted their eyes in unison, looked at the gem man and asked, "Have you seen other superheroes?"
"Uh, no, no, don't look at me like that, I never lie...well, there were indeed other contestants before, but they are not as pessimistic as you."
"Then I can only say that they are really naive." Natasha rolled her eyes and said, "In the absence of any external threats, human beings will still find various reasons to harm and oppress their compatriots.
Under such circumstances, some people are counting on the light of humanity to save the world, don’t be kidding.”
“But aren’t superheroes using their humanity to save the world?”
Batman, Natasha and Batman looked at each other and took two steps back, so that Schiller was standing at the front, and the huge gem man also focused his attention on Schiller.
On the body.
"First of all, I am not a superhero, secondly, you are not a superhero, and finally, you are not a human being at all, so there is no need to debate this topic." Schiller replied, with some subtle tremors in his voice.
, but I don’t know where it comes from.
"I'm just curious about this. If you are not willing to answer my question with words, then explain it to me with practical actions."
The colorful light that shone across the entire arena was extinguished in an instant, and thick dark clouds were always shrouded above the arena. When the light became fainter, it was so dark that no one could be seen in the arena.
With a bang, a huge iron cage fell from the sky, and smoke and dust rose again all around.
When the dust mist slowly dissipated, what was inside the cage was a group of panicked humans, including men, women, old and young. Some were wearing sportswear, some were wearing suits, and some even had a dog in their hand.
It was as if all of them were doing what they should do in their lives normally, and then suddenly they were caught here, with expressions of confusion and horror on their faces.
"These are experimental subjects randomly selected from your planet. There is no doubt that they are members of your race, and you should know how high the human body can withstand falling from."
"If you refuse to answer my questions, I will raise the cage one meter higher. When the question and answer is over, the cage will fall to the ground."
The other three people didn't listen carefully to what the gem man was saying. They only saw the excitement gradually rising in Schiller's eyes, like a hunter who had been hunting for a long time in the dense forest and finally saw a moose.
