The Land of the Dying is the country where people go before they die, where people compete for a place to live. There is only one rule in this country, and that is: the rules are absolute.
The dead will be divided into two parts, the dealer and the players. The dealer makes the game and rules, and the players play the game.
Players will obtain a visa after passing the game. During the validity period of the visa, they can live in the country of death. If they do not clear the game or the visa expires, they will die directly.
On the contrary, the dealer who makes the game, if the player fails the game, they can get the corresponding visa time, if the player passes the game, they have to die.
This is the classic trolley problem. Anyway, the rule of the Land of Dying is that not all people can survive, only some people can survive, and the other people must die.
"This is a test of survival." Duran also came to the Land of the Dying for vacation, because the passage of time in this country is completely different from that of the real world. It can be said that one day in the world is one year in the dying.
It's very suitable for an emperor like him to desert.
People who come to the Kingdom of Dying are already on the verge of death in reality. The Kingdom of Dying is a country where people seek survival when they are dying. If you can survive to the end, you will have a chance to be rescued. If you do not survive to the end, the rescue will fail in advance and you will die directly.
Reality is racing against time, and the dying country has to face cruel choices.
Dulan was standing on a dilapidated street, surrounded by damaged cars, weed-covered roads, and dilapidated buildings...
The layer of ash is thick, water and electricity are cut off, and everything in the store has passed its shelf life. It is a post-apocalyptic scene. This once prosperous city has now withered.
Dulan stood here, knowing that this city is a city built on the magic of the underworld, a city of life and death. If you die here, reality will die. If you live here to the end, there is still a chance for the body of reality to be saved.
Of course, for people living in the Land of the Dying, they don't know the current situation. They can only be forced to plan games or participate in games. Anyway, it is a battle of life and death through games.
For people living in modern society, sudden life and death choices make them at a loss. After all, no matter how unsatisfactory their daily life is, at least their lives are safe in an environment where they will not have to face life and death choices.
This is not the primitive era. Every time you hunt, you may be killed. In modern society, everyone has various tools and protection facilities around them. Even if there is an accident, you can still go to the hospital for rescue.
But in the dying country, without these guarantees, it is a battle of life and death.
Duran is looking for areas to restore water and electricity. These areas are game areas. Only in the area where games are held will water and electricity be provided, and there will be no water or electricity in other places.
Without convenient water and electricity facilities, modern people are very uncomfortable.
Du Lan was walking in the city, looking for places with electricity, and preparing to participate in games. When he came across shops and went in to take a look, they all looked abandoned for a long time, and he felt like a wasteland.
In such a huge city, there are probably several thousand people. Because only endangered people who need to be rescued will appear in the city, and there are not many people who need to be rescued at the same time in a city, especially young people.
Therefore, in order for a large number of young people to appear in the Land of Dying at the same time, a large-scale disaster is required.
However, Duran said that the Kingdom of the Dying could find more young people from different worlds to gather together, and it would also be possible to raise enough people.
Duran saw elephants and giraffes. After the number of humans decreased, animals became more active. In this world, people have to learn to hunt.
Even canned food is mostly spoiled.
Although it was a world between life and death, the senses were very real. Soon Duran found a place with electricity. It was a 24-hour convenience store with a notice posted on the door.
"Game: Wheel of Fortune. Number of participants: 2. Clearance reward: None." Dulan looked at the text above and knew that this was a game that required two people to participate, so he walked in.
The water and electricity in the convenience store have been restored, which is deliberately attracting those wandering around the city to join the game.
"Does the number of participants only need two? You wait here, I will participate in the game." Soon a strong man entered the supermarket.
When the two of them arrived, the glass door was immediately locked and no one could get out.
Dulan looked at the strong man. He seemed to be familiar with the rules. He must have lived in this world for a while.
The TV hanging in the supermarket began to play the rules of the game: "The Wheel of Fortune, everyone can spin the big wheel, and then according to the ratio of the numbers on the big wheel, the larger number wins, and the smaller number fails."
"Is it a pure luck game? Doesn't it test physical strength, intelligence, comprehensive quality, and doesn't involve the entanglement of people's hearts? It's really a simple and crude game. I think this game is at the level of Diamond Two at best." The strong man said to himself.
Said: "My luck has always been bad."
Du Lan smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I have always been very lucky." "Then I will go first."
At this time, the big turntable has been hung from the ceiling. There are a total of twenty-four grids corresponding to twenty-four numbers. When it starts to rotate, the grid it stops on is the result. Duran started directly, and the big turntable immediately started spinning.
The big man was under a lot of pressure. After all, this was a game of luck. According to the information he learned, the games in the Kingdom of Dying were basically divided into four categories, represented by the four suits of playing cards.
Spades represent physical strength, diamonds represent intelligence, clubs represent the combination of physical strength and intelligence, and hearts represent people's hearts. Then, the numbers on the playing cards represent the difficulty. The higher the number, the greater the difficulty.
This kind of game, which has no technical requirements and relies entirely on luck, is probably at the level of two of diamonds. The larger the number of poker cards, the higher the difficulty of the game and the lower the survival rate. However, if the game is too simple, it is not a good thing.
Now this two-player game has a 50/50 survival rate, nothing fancy at all, it just relies on luck.
Duran stopped directly at the position of fifteen, which was neither too big nor too small.
A man knows at a glance that he still has a chance, as long as he is older than fifteen, any one from sixteen to twenty-four will do. Of course, the numbers from one to fourteen are higher, so the mortality rate is already less than 50%.
.
This is a question of probability. If Duran does not move, it is half and half. If Duran moves, his behavior will affect the probability result.
Just like tossing a coin once, both heads and tails are 50%. But after tossing ninety-nine times, the probability of the hundredth time is not 50-50, because with the experience of ninety-nine times, the data collected can
Make judgments more accurate.
The man spun the wheel and sweated nervously, after all, he would die if he lost.
In other places, you can lose most money when playing games, but in the Land of the Dead, you are gambling on your life. If you lose, you will be killed, so you must not lose.
Unfortunately, if you were lucky, Duran would be better. The strong man's turntable result was thirteen.
The strong man was stunned, and then a straight laser beam fell from the sky, penetrated the roof, and accurately passed through the man's Tianling Cap, killing him.
"Game over." Four big words appeared on the TV screen, and then the clock-in machine below the screen showed Duran's visa time, and then there was a poker card with the Ace of Diamonds. Obviously this was the lowest difficulty game.
"It's valid for two days." Dulan said that if he doesn't participate in the next game within two days, he will be killed by a laser falling from the sky as soon as his visa expires.
Dulan walked out and found that there were two people waiting for the strong man outside. When they didn't see the strong man coming out, they knew he must be dead. Disappointed, the two left directly.
The water and electricity in the supermarket were completely shut down after the game ended, and everything returned to a doomsday scene, except for one more corpse.
