Day of Imprisonment

In less than a minute, Luo Xi opened the door and walked out.

Everyone was stunned.

"That was quick."

"A minute? No, not even a minute. Thirty seconds at most. Did he even notice the screens?"

Everyone was filled with guesses.

The interval between ‘Bandit’ entering and exiting was simply too short. They had previously spent over 5 minutes at most, and averaged over 3 minutes.

Affinity, Hook Nose, and Mature Woman exchanged glances and walked over, intending to ask about the situation.

Buzz, buzz~

Just then, a cell phone vibration sounded.

Everyone subconsciously reached for their phones, but quickly realized something was wrong. They were in a checkpoint scenario, where signals were blocked. The phones were no different from bricks. How could there be a call?

After confirming it wasn't their own phones, they saw ‘Bandit’ take out his phone from his pocket and answer the call.

"Hello!" Luo Xi couldn't see the caller ID, but he had encountered this situation before. No caller ID meant the call was from a ‘manager's landline.’ In fact, just in the previous loop, Luo Xi had used such a phone to talk to Ke Lan and the others who were in a checkpoint scenario.

This time, it was his turn to answer.

He had to admit, Luo Xi was curious and instantly guessed who was calling him.

First, it was definitely a call from a manager's landline. These landlines were difficult for ‘Reminiscent Ones’ to obtain. If it was a Reminiscent One he knew, it would likely be Ke Lan or Lin Qiqi who had that ability. It would be difficult for others to obtain a manager's landline.

Besides the Reminiscent Ones, it could naturally be a ‘manager.’

Various possibilities flashed through Luo Xi's mind in an instant.

Old Wang of Dinghai from the Six Dings and Six Jias?

Or one of the others, such as Jiachen, Jiazi, or Old Yao, who manages the ‘Haunted Building’?

Or perhaps...

These thoughts and ideas began the moment Luo Xi answered the phone and ended after he said, 'Hello.'

And he had his answer.

He already knew who it was.

"Teacher Han?"

"Hey, Luo... How did you know it was me calling?"

"Is it urgent?"

"Yes, it's urgent. I'll make it quick. I think this matter is very special and abnormal. In short, I feel something is wrong, so I wanted to talk to you. Also, I must hang up within fifteen seconds, otherwise..."

"Then stop wasting time and talk!"

"The higher-ups suddenly issued a notice and packaged a new set of scenario plans, requiring those below to change the scenario rules. In other words, increase the difficulty of the scenarios, consume the Reminiscent Ones' cards as much as possible, and also have stricter performance evaluations. Also, yesterday... oh, actually, in the last loop, something big seemed to have happened above, but the news was blocked. That's all I know. Be careful. Find me when you have time. Hanging up!"

Teacher Han spoke as fast as a machine gun. After speaking, he hung up directly.

They carefully observed Luo Xi, feeling like he was lying, but his expression was surprisingly normal. Moreover, there was no need to lie about the situation inside.

Everyone had encountered such incredible things.

Now that the voting was over, they could share. There was no need to hide anything.

Manager Old Ma also came out of the room at this time, his expression gloomy. Sure enough, just like Luo Xi said, he looked like he was in a ‘bad mood.’

"Voting is over. Now announce the results!" Old Ma paused and continued, "Eight people, six votes in favor, two votes against. According to the rules, as long as one person is in favor, the third round of the game challenge will be opened. Everyone, please follow me."

After reading, Old Ma took out a bunch of keys and walked out of a door on the side.

Everyone could only follow.

As for who voted in favor and who voted against, in the current situation, there was no meaning or need to explore it.

Moreover, everyone who entered that room just now knew that it could pry into a person's memories, secrets, and privacy, and this was something they didn't want to talk about, so everyone remained silent throughout the process.

However, everyone would guess in their hearts that one of the two negative votes must have been cast by ‘Bandit.’

This guy was obviously different from normal people.

This was basically a consensus.

And who cast the other negative vote?

The people behind looked at the approachable figure and the hooked nose in front.

They guessed that these two were the most likely candidates.

After two rounds of games, everyone had a certain understanding of who was skilled and who was not. It was quite objective. Although there would inevitably be some differences in understanding between each other, the evaluation of a certain person was surprisingly consistent.

Outside was a narrow alley with high walls, located between two buildings. It was very narrow, and it wasn't a problem for one person to pass through, but if someone came head-on, it would be difficult to get past. The outer walls of the buildings on both sides were very high, so it gave people a sense of oppression.

Luo Xi glanced at the time.

Six o'clock in the morning, the sky was much brighter than before.

After walking for more than ten meters, the tall Lao Ma in front opened a locked iron door next to him, creaking as it opened. Then he bent down and walked in, and the others followed one by one.

The newest novels are first published on Liu-9-Shu-Ba!

Inside, it looked like a spacious warehouse that had not yet completed its interior decoration. It was very large and deep. Apart from a dozen supporting columns, there were some room areas that had not yet been divided, with leftover building hollow bricks and boards. The surrounding walls were all cement, with exposed pipes of various kinds, and a lot of construction waste, wooden boards and steel frames on the ground.

Compared to the previous exquisite scenes, this place was simply too shabby. One was finely decorated, and the other was unfinished, the contrast was very strong.

"The third round of the game is called 'Deathmatch'. It has nothing to do with the previous two rounds of games. The previous occupations and naming mechanisms are all invalid. The rules of Deathmatch are very simple. According to the previous voting results, it is divided into two teams. The two teams fight to the death with each other. You cannot use your own cards. You can find attack, defense, and creature cards in the scene. Using these cards to kill each other will be more convenient and effective until one side is completely dead. The surviving side is the winning team. The winners can keep the three cards found in the scene and take them out of the scene as a reward."

"What?" Several people were stunned when they heard this rule.

What kind of bullshit game is this?

This is forcing people to kill each other.

"Wait a minute, the scene here is 'Reasoning Plot Deduction Hall'. We've all been here before. The theme here is only 'Chaos One', which is a very safe one, mainly based on intellectual reasoning and plot deduction. What is this 'Deathmatch' of yours?" The strong man immediately questioned.

"Deathmatch is a new plot mode added to this scene, designed to enrich the player's experience and stimulation." Lao Ma explained seriously.

"Nonsense, you haven't even finished the decoration here. You came up with it on the spur of the moment, right? I feel that this 'Deathmatch' game is something you came up with on the spur of the moment. If you want us to die, wouldn't it be easier to just execute us directly? Why bother so much?" The tense man over there also became agitated.

Because the reason they came here was to seek relative safety and stability. Even if there were deaths, they would be controlled within a certain range.

But now, according to the voting results, it's a deathmatch.

What were the voting results?

Six votes in favor and two votes against, which is equivalent to 6V2.

The tense man knew that he had voted in favor. Logically speaking, his teammates were more numerous, so he had the advantage.

But the problem is that it can be almost certain that there is a 'robber' among the two people who voted against.

Judging from the previous understanding, the 'robber' is not a good person.

When the administrator shot the high school girl to death, this person didn't even bat an eye.

What kind of top-level cold-blooded and perverted psychological quality is this?

Moreover, the other party's intelligence and on-the-spot reaction are rare among the experienced people he has met. If they were to fight against him, and it was a deathmatch, their six people might not necessarily win.

Of course, the main thing is that this matter is too outrageous.

It's like going to a barber shop to get a haircut, and they said it would be 29, but halfway through the haircut, they insisted on getting a 2900 membership card. And you can't refuse.

To put it politely, it's a big store bullying customers and defrauding consumers. To put it bluntly, it's just being a rogue and a scoundrel.

That's why the tense man was so angry, but when Lao Ma heard it, he looked over: "Do you want me to execute you directly?"

"No, no, I didn't say that." The tense man was immediately frightened into a cold sweat by Lao Ma's gaze.

If he said 'yes', then there was no doubt that the other person would immediately take out a handgun and blow his head off.

This guy's marksmanship is very accurate.

"Then do you have any other opinions?" Lao Ma continued to press.

"No, no, I have no opinions." The tense man realized that he had been a little impulsive just now and almost went offline early.

The other people didn't say anything either. Why would they jump out?

Crazy, simply!

He shrank back.

"Of course, in order to prevent someone from killing people directly at the beginning, the two teams need to go to their respective war preparation areas first. Only when I announce the start can the deathmatch begin."

"Now, please follow your voting choices. The six people who chose to agree will prepare in Area A here, and the two who chose to oppose will follow me to Area B over there to prepare." Lao Ma had a smile on his face, and it seemed that the reactions of the several Pickers were very much in line with his expectations.

Looking closely, a circle was painted on the ground over there with spray paint, with a capital 'A' written on it. As for Area B, it should be at the other end.
