Chapter 33 Now(1/2)
This maze is not complicated, it is just amplified by the darkness. The mercenary captain took the flashlight, walked in front, still holding the priest. Followed by Du Jing and Zhou Luoyang, and then behind are "professor" and "botanist".
The space was extremely small. In order not to fall behind, everyone followed the priest and captain closely, but the light in front was blocked by the figure and could not reach the back. At this time, Du Jing suddenly said again.
"Do you remember that time you went to Global?" Du Jing asked.
"Can you stop mentioning this matter all the time?" Zhou Luoyang finally couldn't bear it anymore. He was almost hanging his whole body on Du Jing and was finally carried out.
The professor said: "This is not a good idea. I find that your little ones are very afraid of the darkness."
The priest walking in front said, "I'm not afraid."
"I... are not afraid of anything," said Zhou Luoyang. "I am not afraid of being simple and dark. What I am more afraid of is that something suddenly comes to the darkness..."
"Stop talking!" the botanist shouted.
"Okay, okay," Zhou Luoyang said immediately, "If you don't say it, there are no staff here who are idle and have nothing to do, and they are scary."
"Here," said the priest easily, "my mission is completed."
"This is a dead end," the mercenary captain touched the wall and replied, "but it can be moved."
"Let me see?" The professor went over, and the botanist subconsciously grabbed Zhou Luoyang.
Zhou Luoyang patted him gently with understanding and heard the darkness say, "Thank you."
"Oh no," said the professor, "it's almost out of power."
The light of the flashlight became darker and darker, obviously calculated. Perhaps it was only an hour to fill it, and in a moment it fell into darkness again.
"This pedal is a mechanism," said the mercenary captain. "With the two of you standing up?"
Coach: "Does it need to be regrouped?"
Du Jing replied, "That's it."
The other three people, including Zhou Luoyang, did not speak. Du Jing remembered and asked Zhou Luoyang: "Do you have any objection?"
Zhou Luoyang said: "Didn't you all decide? We just followed me, I still don't know what to do."
"That's it." said the mercenary captain, "Let's go first?"
The priest began to get a little nervous. The environment was too realistic. No one knew what would happen if he stood on the pedal, but it was a game in the end. So the priest tried to say in a relaxed tone: "Let's go."
The space where the pedal was located was very small. Everyone stepped back, and the mercenary captain hugged the little priest. The two stood on the pedal. The weight of the two seemed to trigger the sensing - Zhou Luoyang guessed that this weight was about 100 kilograms.
Of course, it is not ruled out that there are staff outside who are looking at the camera and starting it with their hands.
It was a hydraulic lift with a very narrow space. The two people standing there barely stood and were slowly lowered by the lift.
"The next couple." The professor reminded.
Zhou Luoyang and Du Jing stood up and slowly descended. The light finally slowly returned, making Zhou Luoyang a little confused. Then, the professor and the botanist also descended, and the third level ended.
There is actually the fourth level, and Zhou Luoyang thought it was finished. There are five unique, movable iron racks in the new secret room, with human-shaped iron sheets hanging on the rack, and the bottom of the rack is fixed to the tracks on the ground.
There is an inlay groove in front of the central gate, and a part is missing from the inlay groove.
In front of the sculpture, there is a position for only one person to stand, and there are decolored murals painted around the secret room.
Zhou Luoyang thought this secret room was designed in modest form, but the reactions of several people inside were quite interesting.
"This should be the last level," Du Jing said, "It's my turn."
Du Jing took out an iron gear in his hand and stuck it on the inlay groove.
"This level should be the hardest," said the professor. "I have seen it online. The last level in this secret room is the hardest."
"What does it mean?" Zhou Luoyang said, then glanced at Du Jing's mentally retarded eyes and said unhappy, "Let me guess myself, don't say it, it's too disappointing to play in the secret room with smart people."
The professor was told that, and it was hard to speak.
But Zhou Luoyang himself could not think of it alone.
"These iron frames are moving to a certain range," the mercenary captain thoughtfully, "the door should open."
Zhou Luoyang said: "Yes, but the track is too complicated, there must be a prompt."
The captain looked up, looked around, and suddenly said, "Projection on the wall."
Everyone suddenly realized that in the last secret room, there was a lamp in the center, and the shelf with iron sheets moved to a certain area, which would just form a projection on the mural to complete the mural!
"It's not easy to do." The professor tried to move a few times. The tracks were high and low. If they were not fixed by people, they would slide away from their original position.
Zhou Luoyang counted and happened to have five iron frames and said, "I understand. In the end, everyone needs to cooperate with each other. I will see the position and you guys will recommend it."
So the five of them went to the iron frame and pushed the frame, so that the thin sheets on the frame formed a projection on the wall. Zhou Luoyang stepped back a little and looked around the walls.
"The professor is a little bit to the left." Zhou Luoyang said, "Du...Groot."
"i’groot." Du Jing said expressionlessly.
Zhou Luoyang said in laughter: "Go back, don't block the light...that... mercenary captain, horse king? Go forward."
"The priest pulls back, overseas Chinese...botanist, you keep your original position and don't move." Zhou Luoyang said, "Okay, all of them go to the location it should go."
But nothing happened.
Everyone stood alone, each of them was responsible for an iron frame. Zhou Luoyang waited for a while and asked, "Hey! Open the door! Is the mechanism broken?"
Everyone stood in their own position and could only see one or two murals. Zhou Luoyang went up and checked the side of the sculpture. There seemed to be a door there, but it was not opened.
"No," said the mercenary captain, "this ground is not turned on, there is no sound."
The priest looked puzzled and wanted to let go of the airs, but the captain said, "Wait a little longer."
He said to Zhou Luoyang: "What did you see in that position?"
Zhou Luoyang looked around the mural and said, "I understand... this is a reminder."
The mural after being completed by the projection presents its full picture. Zhou Luoyang couldn't help but sigh that the designer of this secret room did put his heart into the final stage-
"One person must die." Zhou Luoyang murmured.
After completing the characters from left to right on the mural, a picture is described in which six people come to the lost temple to find the final treasure that sleeps. In the center of the altar, one person must stand, then shoot him to death with arrows, and sacrifice to God with blood to obtain the treasure they have been pursuing and leave the temple alive.
Du Jing said: "Well, who will go?"
No one spoke, Zhou Luoyang said: "Does someone have to die before they can get out? Just pretending, right?"
Everyone looked at Zhou Luoyang. Everyone in this secret room used initial props to help solve the mystery of the secret room. Only Zhou Luoyang has done almost nothing since he came in.
Zhou Luoyang said: "This is very fair. The purpose of designing tourists is to let him go and sacrifice..."
At this time, Du Jing took out a gun from his bag.
Everyone was silent.
Du Jing said: "Be serious."
Since Zhou Luoyang came in, he always had a playful attitude and had no sense of immersion in this secret room. The others were not very serious at first, but gradually, they all entered the plot. Until Du Jing took out the "gun", Zhou Luoyang felt that he was really in the temple for a moment.
"Body guard, is this yours?" said the professor.
Du Jing replied: "Sightseeing, come, tourists, you can take it."
Du Jing handed the pistol to Zhou Luoyang. Zhou Luoyang weighed it. The gun was very light and had a clear distinction between the shape. There might be only one remote control inside, which is the key to opening the last door.
Zhou Luoyang looked at everyone.
"I'll choose? Will I kill someone?" Zhou Luoyang only found it incredible.
"Your character is in the final stage. The goal of success is to kill a person at will and take away one of the treasures. After killing someone, you must put the gun on the altar and let anyone in need use it." Du Jing said to Zhou Luoyang, "It's just that when we came in, I didn't show you the game instructions."
The mercenary captain said: "Don't kill me, I have no enemies with you. My purpose is to let the botanist die. His real identity is not a botanist, but a North Korean biologist. He will develop a large number of chemical weapons to kill our American army and the people."
"So your personality is an American," said the priest.
"My mission is to investigate the professor, kill him, and get the recipe from him," the botanist said.
Zhou Luoyang: “…”
Zhou Luoyang scratched his head, and the priest said again: "You can't kill botanists. Others are girls, my sister. I want to kill the mercenary captain because he led the army and harmed many people in our country."
Zhou Luoyang: “…”
"Professor" said: "I want to protect you, a tourist, because my personality is a theologian, and I have sworn that I cannot let civilians be hurt. I want to persuade you to kill your bodyguard because his motive is impure. He and the captain are in the same group. They want to take the treasures and kill everyone."
Du Jing replied: "Yes, my personality is that I need to take away the most treasures in a reasonable range when leaving here, but I cannot kill the mercenary captain because he was my comrade-in-arms."
Zhou Luoyang said: "Why are your personality so complicated?! You knew everything when you came in? Is it the only one I don't have a personality?!"
"You are the only one who has no character," said the priest, "but you have the right to decide the life and death of everyone. The game instructions remind us to pay attention to you."
Zhou Luoyang was already confused by them and said, "Now I will sort out the plot. First of all, no one wants to die. So next, you will advise me to kill my mission target."
"The professor wants to kill my bodyguard." Zhou Luoyang looked at Du Jing and said, "You want to kill the botanist or priest. The mercenary captain wants to kill the botanist, the botanist wants to kill the professor, the priest wants to kill the mercenary captain."
Du Jing said: "Yes, it's our turn to kill each other and escort you here. My contract is terminated and I can kill you too."
Zhou Luoyang thought to himself, look at everyone again. But the mercenary captain said to the priest: "I will protect you, and my personality is also protecting you."
The priest replied, "Then you can't kill my sister, your mission is doomed to fail."
The professor said: "This is all arranged by the game. The five people have reasons for hatred and having to kill each other."
