When the sign was turned over, even Pina, who had been standing behind Lin Sanjiu and Pan Cui for safety reasons, suddenly took a few steps forward and said over their shoulders: "I - I read that right?
Or is this sign written wrong?”
No one answered her; at this moment, Lin Sanjiu was also staring at the sign, with the same questions and surprises echoing in her mind.
For a moment, she even suspected that this sign, Mime, was just a trap set by other evolvers to rob those who came after... However, the more she looked at the words behind the sign, her intuition became clearer.
The clearer it becomes: this should indeed be a road in the dungeon.
Although logically, it clearly cannot be a road - because its length is zero meters.
"The road to the end?"
The road under this card does not seem to be one of the roads leading to the terminal casino.
The road under this card is a relatively difficult one to take. You must bet at least 40 points before entering.
The road under this card is zero meters long in total. After completing this section of the road safely and meeting the conditions, the winner will be considered. If the player lingers on the road for more than 24 hours, it will be judged as a loser. After losing the bet items, the gambler will
will be sent back to the starting point.
The odds of the road under this card are 1:2.5. The winner can get back the chips he bet at the end of this section of the road, and also get 60 points of chips paid for this section of the road (calculated based on the bet of 40 points).
"Are you an NPC?"
Pan Cui raised her head from the sign, stared directly into the mime's eyes, and asked: "Please explain why this road is only zero meters. First of all, if a road is only zero meters, how can it be called a road?
Is it 'a road'? Secondly, and more importantly, since it is only zero meters, we are already at the end of the road, so why do we still need to bet on it?"
Her thoughts were indeed clear and agile, and she quickly organized everything Lin Sanjiu wanted to say into words and questions.
However, the next second, they knew why the NPC on this section of the road was a mime actor - the smile on the face painted white suddenly stopped, the corners of his mouth dropped, and he pulled out two
Then he raised his hand, pinched his index finger and thumb, and drew a line on his mouth.
Even people born after the apocalypse can tell that this is his imitation of zipping up to show that he cannot speak.
Several people couldn't help but let out a long, irritated breath.
"The following paragraph..." Pan Cui turned her attention to the sign again.
In fact, they have already read the supplementary explanation below once, and naturally they cannot see the new words if they look at it again. The explanation they saw on the rooftop has been replaced and deleted a lot, probably because everyone who can get here has
I have already seen the basic explanation of the road, so there is no need to go into details.
Notes: 1. Only five people can enter the road under this sign every hour;
Second, even people who enter together may have different moments of completing the path;
Third, only employees who are treated properly can continue to create value for the copy. We attach great importance to the physical and mental health of our employees. Please do not attack our employees;
Fourth, please trust the instructions and guidance given by our employees;
5. The winner after completing this section of the road will be sent to the next section of the road by employees;
6. When your on-the-road employees are tired, you're on a path to failure (did you like our puns? Welcome to the team, there are more).
"You seem to have missed a key point." Pan Cui's eyes moved away, and Pina spoke up. She placed her finger on the sign a little harder and said, "The first one here is no longer about this road. Maybe
'It's the road to the terminal casino,' but it turned into 'It doesn't seem like' it's the road to the terminal casino..."
When she said this, she simply turned around and walked back. As she walked, she looked at the buildings on both sides and said with a bit of anger: "If this road can't lead to the end, why should we waste time thinking about how it will end?"
What's going on? If we just leave, it'll be over."
"What she said makes sense," Pan Cui looked at Lin Sanjiu and said invitingly, "Shall we find another way together?"
The Mime didn't seem to disapprove of this; just like on the rooftop, this copy didn't care about the Evolutionary stalling for time - unless the Evolutionary made up his mind to live in the small clearing at the beginning of the road for the rest of his life, they would sooner or later
You have to choose a path to take.
He just laughed again, and the cheek muscles coated with thick white powder squeezed up; because the face was painted too white, the pair of eyeballs that were painted yellow, with bloodshot eyes, rolled to the left for a while, and then turned again.
On the right, he also covered his eyebrows with his hand, as if imitating the "searching" action of several people.
"We must have been laughed at by him," Pina said resentfully as she pushed an iron door of a house in the alley several times.
Pan Cui tapped Lin Sanjiu and Pina's shoulders, then lowered her voice and said, "Listen to me, we have to be mentally prepared that this is the only way."
"I'm sure I can find another way..."
Before Pina finished speaking, Pan Cui shook her head.
"What if there is no other way? On the way here, none of us saw any other brands, right? In short, we have to be prepared. We must use the time before placing the bet to collect as many clues as possible and analyze this.
What’s going on with roads? You can’t just start walking down a road casually anymore, this is 40 points.”
2k
After being separated from her friends, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but feel a little lucky to meet a clear-headed companion like Pan Cui in the dungeon. "I'll try my best," she nodded, "but I don't know what the clues are.
"
Pina shrugged her shoulders and said nothing, seeming to agree tacitly.
Pan Cui smiled slightly worriedly.
"I'm very worried," she said while looking into a window: "On the way here, we didn't know where we made mistakes and took the wrong path, which gave us the possibility of heading to the casino at the end.
It’s getting smaller and smaller as we go.”
The upper half of the window was covered by whitish pink curtains. A pot of withered flowers was squeezed behind the soy sauce bottle, plastic box and detergent. There were light stains and oil spots on the glass——
Behind the window seems to be the kitchen of a family.
"Have you noticed?" Pan Cui said, "This time the sign says that you will be sent back to the starting point, not the starting point rooftop. It means that people from different starting points will also arrive here if they don't go the right way.
.I have to think carefully about which decision made us farther and farther away from the finish line...it can't be pure luck."
As if to confirm her inference, the three people searched carefully in this short half alley for nearly an hour, but found nothing.
Above the rooftop of the old building, there are only antennas, clotheslines and flower pots; a small dental clinic that looks very suspicious, with the door half open, as if the person had just opened the door and left in a hurry; the opening door of an old residential building It was unlocked. Encouraged, they climbed all the way along the dark corridor to the locked door of the rooftop. They saw countless dirty floor mats and shoes left outside the door, which were parked in the corridor. bicycle... but there is no more signboard anywhere.
When they finally gave up, the mime stretched out a white-gloved hand from behind the notice board, pointed at them with the back of his hand, and waved at them a few times. His red smile reminded Lin Sanjiu of the human experience many years ago. The Ronald McDonald we have seen in society.
