There are torches on both sides of the tunnel, but the firelight cannot illuminate everything, and there are still places that cannot be seen.
Places crowded with people are even darker, and hunters will inevitably feel uneasy in this environment.
There were more than 370 candidates, and three or five more came after Reina. Half an hour after that, the assessment officially began, and a group of examiners wearing yellow clothes appeared in front of everyone.
"Welcome everyone, the examination of the Stairway to Heaven has now officially begun. As for the rules of the examination, you must have heard about them on the way down. Now I will repeat them again..."
The examiner once again explained the rules of the exam, and after that, he went straight to the topic.
"Then the first test will begin. The content is very simple. It is a speed competition. You will start from here and go along the tunnel to the second test location. The first 100 people who arrive first will get the second test.
Qualifications. Let me remind you that there is more than one way to the next level. Above. I announce that the first autumn assessment of the Stairway to Heaven has officially begun!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a second. After reacting, they all immediately turned their heads and rushed out. The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Reina stood up and started running with the crowd.
At this moment, several unicorn ghosts came to her side.
"Hmph, I regret not joining us. I wish you good luck, fellow racer."
It was the one-horned ghost who had just come over to invite Reina. The horn on his head was engraved with unique patterns. The four of them quickened their pace, leaving Reina behind.
Reina was not in a hurry, she felt that things were not that simple.
The top 100 people, which means that more than two-thirds of the people will be eliminated in the first exam. Looking at it from another perspective, as long as she solves more than 200 people, then she does not have to worry about failing. So where she is now
The place was in the middle of the crowd, with more than two hundred people behind and beside him.
More than three hundred people were rushing along the dim tunnel, and there were many people who had the same idea as Reina. Less than five minutes after the assessment started, suddenly a person in front fell and tripped.
.
"ah!"
"Asshole! You are looking for death!"
"Don't even think about passing!"
"let me go!"
A scream came from the crowd, and then there was chaos. It seemed that someone was starting to fight. It was the same as what the lizard man Haka said, and the struggle between candidates was also part of the assessment.
Reina couldn't help but quicken her pace. At this moment, a voice came from the front.
"Come back next month, newcomer!"
Suddenly, a guy with an elephant trunk turned around, raised his right arm and hit Reina.
Looking at the oncoming attack, Reina quickly bent down and avoided the opponent's attack. But she did not fight back, she just ran forward quickly. The elephant trunk man who stopped was suddenly hit by the person behind, and they fought.
, blocking many people at once.
The further they ran to the front, the less fighting there was. Reina immediately noticed one thing. Only those at the back would have the heart to eliminate others in order to pass. Almost all the people in the front wanted a quick victory. In the final analysis
, this is a race of speed.
However, Rena still underestimated this exam.
After half an hour, Reina was still running. Those runners who were running in front were gradually overtaken by Rena. They were panting, some were still struggling, and some simply sat on the side of the road and gave up the race.
This tunnel was farther than they thought, and those who wasted their energy fighting behind them probably wouldn't be able to finish the entire journey. Although there were only one hundred people in the quota, less than fifty people were actually likely to reach the finish line.
But Reina will definitely be one of the fifty, and her endurance will be no problem even if she runs for a whole day.
Reina gradually quickened her pace and passed more and more people.
"Wait! Wait! Wait for me."
An innocent guy was running out of breath, and Reina passed him without hesitation.
However, she really stopped.
Of course it wasn't because I had to wait for that guy, but because there was a fork in the road.
It was dark inside the two forks, and many people were sitting aside to rest.
Reina's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. She was the worst at finding the way. Could it be that there was an element of luck in this competition? If she chose the wrong direction, she would fail?
She frowned and started thinking.
There were probably more than thirty people in front of her, and it looked like there were people walking on both sides of the footprints.
Now she has two options. One is to pick a road at random, take a gamble, and even if she is wrong, she will run back at full speed. With her speed, she can probably reach the finish line before the 100 people.
The second is to wait. Since one of the roads is wrong, then someone will definitely turn back. Then when someone comes back, they will know which road is true. I guess the hunters sitting aside thought the same.
But there are risks.
What if both roads are correct, but one is closer and easier to walk? What if no one ever comes back?
Reina frowned. She couldn't say whether it was correct to use the wind direction or Qimen Dunjia to judge which path was right. These were two paths, and everything was unknown.
"There are more people walking on the left."
At this moment, the hunter sitting on the roadside suddenly said.
"These tunnels were not dug, but were made by a kind of earth-burrowing strange demon a long time ago, so all roads lead to the next level."
Those people continued.
Reina frowned. As a competitor, the other party had no reason to give her tips. Of course, it was not ruled out that an examiner would sneak into the candidates to supervise the entire examination process.
"Then take the right side."
Finally, she made up her mind and ran towards the right. As for why she chose the right, it was very simple: men left, women right.
The space suddenly became narrower, and Reina's space perception made her feel a sense of oppression. An uneasy feeling filled her heart. Is this the right path?
This thought will haunt her until her end, as it does for everyone.
What Reina could do at this time was to walk the darkest road and keep moving forward.
However, not long after she ran, a fork in the road suddenly appeared.
Could it be that this is a maze?
Reina still chose the right. The right-hand rule means that as long as you keep walking to the right, you will definitely be able to find the exit.
However, not long after she ran, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Turn back! This road is wrong!"
The other party shouted, and when he got closer, he saw an anxious look on his face.
This sound made Reina's heart skip a beat, and she felt a terrible feeling.
"Is there no road ahead?"
The other party shook his head and said, "You're going the wrong way. It's not this way at all. It's the wrong way. It's the other way. Maybe they have reached the end."
After saying that, the hunter left in a hurry.
Reina stood there, and she wanted to run back, at least now she still had a chance.
But she didn't do that. After staying for a moment, Reina turned around again and continued to move forward.
