God's imitator

Chapter 402 Punishment: Electric Shock

Shortly after the third round of the game began, the announcement about distributing funds rang out again inside the venue, but this time the message made many players frown.

Jiao Hai stood up impatiently: "No funding? Why! Hey! Are you kidding me?"

He didn't know exactly from which angle the player allocating the funds was viewing the scene, so he could only randomly choose a wall to express his angry protest.

Shen Xing's face was somewhat pale; for her, failing to secure funding for this round of the game was also quite bad news.

Given the current difficulty of this map, even with three more chances, it would still be very difficult to pass without further modifications to the vehicle.

As for the other players, Liu Jie and Fu Chen saw a slight increase in their funds, Chen Ran's funds decreased significantly, while Peng Xinyuan's funds increased significantly.

Peng Xinyuan was the most excited. He quickly got up and used the equipment to modify his pen.

Fu Chen checked the details of the funds he had received; this time, half went to gas stations and half to repair shops.

This was exactly the result he wanted.

In the previous round of the game, Fu Chen, Shen Xing, and Peng Xinyuan were blocked from using the devices with the most current usage and the most current available funds.

Of the funds received, 7583 points were for "gas stations" and 6000 points were for "repair shops".

This ensures that the equipment with the most current usage and the most current available funds is the gas station, and at least 6000 funds can be used to use the repair shop to improve the vehicle's performance.

In the next round of the game, the gas station's funds can be saved up, and the small change can be pooled together for continued use.

Furthermore, the players outside the venue chose the repair shop over the modification shop, which means they received Fu Chen's message and the funds were still allocated according to the priority given by Fu Chen.

Fu Chen first checked the status of the 'TV station'. As players' funds increased, the number of times the 'TV station' was used was also gradually increasing. The equipment that was offered at a discount was constantly changing between the 'repair shop' and the 'modification shop'.

However, the more times the equipment is used, the more money is needed for each use, so it becomes more difficult to change the discount later on.

Fu Chen decided to wait a little while until a player could switch back to the "Repair Shop" discount from the "TV Station".

After receiving the funding, Liu Jie frowned. After a while, she stood up, went to the equipment at the "modification factory," crossed her arms and made an "X" gesture, then turned to different directions and repeated the gesture several times.

Clearly, since she was the first to benefit from the "modification workshop," the players who provided the funds have been sending her funds that can only be used at the modification workshop.

Liu Jie must have noticed that the crack in the pen was getting worse, so she had to try to remind her in this more direct way.

Although it's uncertain whether the other party can see it or understand the specific meaning, this is the only thing we can do.

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Jie decided to put the car pen into the "modification shop".

Since the funds had already been allocated, it would be a waste not to use them. Although the crack in her pen was quite severe, she still had no choice but to continue using it.

After the modifications were completed, Liu Jie took out the car pen and examined it carefully, revealing a relieved expression.

Fortunately, the result wasn't too bad.

She was still a little uneasy, so she circled the "modification shop" again, making an "X" sign before returning to her spot with her car pen to continue the "track in the painting" challenge.

After Liu Jie finished the modifications, Chen Ran went to the "TV station" and changed the discount back to the "repair shop".

Fu Chen took this opportunity to use the "repair shop" after Chen Ran.

The third and fourth times the repair shop was used, the original price had increased to 3000 and 4000 respectively. However, with the discount, the total price became 4200, which can be covered by the current budget.

After completing the modifications, Fu Chen took another deep breath and attempted to challenge the "track in the painting".

Soon, everyone had used up their three chances.

Chen Ran ultimately failed to pass the third map, and she looked somewhat regretful. If she had more funding, she might have had a chance.

Peng Xinyuan successfully completed the second map. Although his most used and expensive equipment was blocked again in this round, Peng Hong made corresponding arrangements when allocating funds. Even with only half the funds, Peng Xinyuan successfully completed the map.

Liu Jie and Fu Chen also successfully completed the second map, but compared to Peng Xinyuan, they stumbled along the way.

Fortunately, I had some luck on my last try.

But compared to Fu Chen, Liu Jie's expression was clearly more anxious, because she was still worried about the crack on the pen.

If we stop using the 'Modification Factory' afterwards, is it possible to use other equipment to pass through the third map?
This is still an unknown.

After all, the difficulty of each map will increase significantly.

As for Jiao Hai and Shen Xing, due to the blockade, they were unable to obtain any funding and therefore still failed to pass the second map.

This is very bad news, considering there are still three rounds of the game to go, which means they only have one last chance to recover.

The group sat down in silence in front of the hexagonal platform, ready to decide who would receive this "exclusive punishment".

Fu Chen said, "As we agreed before, anyone who wants to challenge the 'exclusive punishment' only needs to apply a slight pulling force to the device."

“I’ll still be last in line. Before that, whoever receives the ‘exclusive punishment’, I will help share the burden.”

With a "click," the devices on everyone's heads locked again, obscuring their vision.

Players who have already been selected for the 'Exclusive Punishment' will not be selected again, so the game time will be slightly longer each time you play this game.

But this time the results came out faster than everyone expected.

Jiao Hai was selected.

Liu Jie and Peng Xinyuan both looked somewhat surprised. Clearly, they had also applied some pulling force to the device, but Jiao Hai's force was greater.

With a "bang," the corresponding room door opened.

Fu Chen stood up: "Let's go."

Peng Xinyuan frowned and looked at Jiao Hai: "Are you sure you'll help us share the cost later?"

Jiao Hai nodded: "What kind of talk is that? Of course I'm sure!"

Peng Xinyuan was somewhat reluctant, but after glancing at Fu Chen, he followed after her.

After considering for a moment, Liu Jie also stood up. After all, she had not yet experienced the special punishment. Only by helping others share the burden first could more people help her share it later.

Chen Ran, of course, still didn't move.

Shen Xing hesitated for a moment. Actually, Jiao Hai hadn't helped her when she was subjected to the special punishment before, so she could choose not to go in now. But after hesitating for a moment, she decided to follow.

This also resulted in an unprecedented five players entering the room together.

The door slammed shut.

[Punishment: Electric Shock]

[Once the player sits on the electric chair, the electric current will gradually increase, and they will have to endure the electric shock for at least 2 minutes.]

[After 2 minutes, a "Give Up" button will pop up on the electric chair. Click it to exit automatically.]

[For every additional minute, you will receive an extra 10,000 minutes of visa time, up to a maximum of 30,000 minutes.]
