Chapter 30: The Hunchback and the Vicious Stratagem
"Sharma Dores is the name mentioned in Fill-in-the-Blank Question 14!"
This was Gao Ying's first reaction.
"That was a clue to our candidates." Yan Yuchu is no stranger to this: "We have to follow the clues to find out what this name represents." β
Gao Ying realized that he was afraid that it was not that simple.
Fog around...... It seems to be a little smaller than before.
"Let's get out of here first." Gao Ying had just sensed that there were new candidates entering the area. The rewards drawn by the candidates are strange, and it is better not to face the candidates head-on now.
"Find a way to find out if there's anything like a street sign nearby." Zhu Sunling proposed: "There are many road names on the exam papers. β
The fog was a real obstacle, making it difficult for them to move an inch. Fortunately, it seems that the fog has lightened a little now, and the outline of the surrounding scenery is clearer.
Gao Ying also thought that Zhu Sunling was right, so the three of them walked quickly while checking whether there were any street signs around.
"Found it!"
Soon, they found a street sign nearby.
"Divolkin Road ......" Gao Ying took a look, and the 6th and 7th questions of the multiple-choice question both involved road names, but none of them matched.
Gao Ying looked ahead again, and then, he saw ......
A hunchbacked figure appears at the front of the road!
Hunchbacked figure?
Gao Ying took a deep breath, he remembered very well that the 4th question of the multiple-choice question and the 2nd question of the fill-in-the-blank question both mentioned a "hunchbacked man"!
Fill-in-the-blank question 2 says that on the () road, you will definitely see a hunchbacked person.
It's this Divolkin Road!
However, this fill-in-the-blank inscription is "definitely".
Yan Yu mentioned to Gao Ying at the beginning that ghosts may have doppelgangers, so it is difficult to explain anything based on the current scene alone.
At the same time, Gao Ying made a silent gesture to Yan Yuchu and Zhu Sunling at the same time.
In the fourth multiple-choice question, a ghost will say "Be silent" to the candidate, which means "keep quiet" in Chinese. Hunchbacked people, also one of the options.
Now, it's better to be careful.
The hunchbacked figure walked slowly, and its face could not be seen clearly in the thick fog. Gao Ying looked at the street sign beside him and pointed to another road next to him. Zhu Sunling immediately understood what he meant, and moved to another road to see if the hunchback man would pursue him. If it will, then it means that there is no "certain" chance that you will see a hunchbacked person on this road.
Then, when they reached the other road, they could still see the hunchbacked man approaching them in the fog.
However, just when the hunchbacked figure was gradually less than ten meters away from them, the fog suddenly became as thick as before, and they suddenly couldn't see the hunchbacked man clearly!
This scene caught Gao Ying off guard for a while.
He immediately made a gesture to make Zhu Sunling, Yan Yuchu and him both retreat. The reward for Exorcism is currently in the cooldown period.
At this moment, he realized even more that Dong Scorpion's spiritual essence was very useful.
Fortunately, at that time, he killed Colin and Davy, and plundered a lot of good rewards from them. What's more, Vilvin directly plundered the reward of time control! If something happens, he can just let time stand still!
Although the reward of time control is against the sky, the disadvantage is that the cooldown period is particularly long: the cooldown period is one hour for time slowdown (similar to bullet time), the cooldown period for time reversal is three hours, and the time is still for five hours, all of which can only last for one minute, and the ability to exceed time is completely lost. Of course, it can only be applied to a small area. This reward is also one of the reasons why Zhu Sunling is more jealous of Gao Ying, after all, a single time standstill can make him kill people easily, and the other party can't resist at all.
At Hell and Abyss, you can unlock 2 new skills respectively: Hell is a time cut, which can be cut into a minute in the future to skip this time period (you can only skip time but not space, for example, skip a minute when a flood comes, and after a minute, the flood will still appear in place and drown). When you reach the Abyss level, you can really do time travel (of course, the exam can only be within the exam time range), of course, time travel will be very limited, and the specific restrictions can only be known when they are unlocked. Dong Scorpion's luck in winning this reward is really good enough to explode, and at the beginning of the speech, the probability of winning this reward at the Death level is similar to that of the Chinese football team reaching the top four of the World Cup. In this way, we should thank Verwin, otherwise it would not be possible to cheapen Gao Ying.
Suddenly, from the fog, a withered and rotten hand suddenly appeared, reaching towards Gao Ying's neck!
β¦β¦
At this time, on the side of Dong Scorpion and Ji Yixuan......
The muzzle of the black hole hole was aimed at the two candidates in front of him.
"Cliff he ran away......"
The two candidates were a man and a woman, both blonde and blue-eyed Europeans and Americans, and they were all frightened at this time.
Dong Scorpion held the gun, and the muzzle of the gun locked on the two people in front of him, as long as he pulled the trigger at this time, he could send them to Huangquan.
Killing people with his own hands is becoming more and more skilled for him now. After all, he participated in the hunting of candidates in the past, and he had never done it himself. And now, the killing no longer feels anything to him.
Of course, the premise is that Ji Yixuan no longer prohibits violence.
"He ran away...... Why did you run away? β
"Ghost ...... Is it a ghost...... One of our companions died, but the rest of us were out of danger for the time being. β
Dong Scorpion suddenly became irritable.
"Then why don't you run?"
"We want to wait for Michael to come back...... But Kref fled the ...... right away."
But there is affection and righteousness. However, it may also be that Dong Scorpion deliberately said that in order to make his heart soft-hearted.
At this time, one of the blonde women begged: "Please, please don't kill me, I have not drawn a reward from me, if you don't kill me, I will be grateful to you......"
"I ...... Me too...... I don't have a reward on me......" The other man also denied it again and again, but who would believe it? What's more, even if he doesn't have a reward, Dong Scorpion can still kill him.
"Ji Yixuan......" Dong Scorpion looked at Ji Yixuan and asked him to immediately lift the prohibition of violence.
But obviously, Ji Yixuan's face couldn't bear it, and he still relented. Even in this battle royale mode, he has no way to kill this kind of candidate who is willing to take the risk of waiting for his companion as he did with the two black candidates who took the initiative to kill.
"Please...... I can promise you anything...... Don't kill me......" Speaking of which, the blonde woman had already begun to show the parts below her neck that could not be described, and she also knew that the effect of this method in this environment was limited, but in the face of life and death, there was no other choice. Ghosts can dodge by doing exam papers, but there is nothing they can do in the face of candidates!
However, this scene reminded Dong Scorpion of Isabella's plea in front of him.
She swore an oath!
She swore in the name of God that as long as she saved Verwin, she would promise herself all conditions!
Otherwise, how could he have acted so foolishly? How can you lose that time control reward? Later, he would rather let Gao Ying get that reward, just to remember that moment forever.
The current Dong Scorpion is extremely spurned and despised by himself at that time.
"Ji Yixuan." Dong Scorpion's voice became extremely cold: "Do you also want to break your oath?" You don't want your sister to live, do you? β
He said this in the most ruthless words, which made Ji Yixuan's face tremble.
"I ...... I got ......."
For Ji Yixuan, it is impossible for two candidates who have never known each other to be more important than Ji Yixin. This is a multiple-choice question that does not need to be considered.
"Bang!"
Bullets whistled and pierced the heads of the man and the woman.
The woman was actually still a little bit beautiful, after the blood penetrated her skull, the blood and brain slurry were spurted out, and the glass of the supermarket behind it was shattered. She fell to the ground without a blink, her expression still full of unwillingness and despair.
Dong Scorpion took the gun in his hand, and only felt that what he shot and killed was not a candidate, but his former self.
I was once extremely naΓ―ve and ignorant.
He put down the pistol that was still wafting smoke, and his heart was full of melancholy.
"I'll go out for a while, Yang Xuan, you come out with me."
Walking outside the supermarket, Dong Scorpion's body was leaning against the wall.
"Am I being too pushy?" He looked at Yang Xuan, who followed him, and said, "Actually, I can ask Gao Ying to reward me with time control...... He's probably going to say yes, because of my psychic nature. β
"Self-esteem is not a bad thing sometimes." Yang Xuan understood Dong Scorpion very well: "However, don't you think it...... Ji Yixuan, is he too naΓ―ve and ignorant? β
"Hmph...... I used to be, and for a while, I was as idealistic as he was. β
"He's a big threat after all...... No violence. If you own this reward, you can use it more appropriately. β
Dong Scorpion began to feel that Yang Xuan's words were wrong.
"Candidates in the same examination room...... You can't get the reward even if you kill it. I'm not a high shadow. β
"I have a plan...... If we deliberately create an opportunity for a hostile candidate to kill him and thus get his reward......"
Dong Scorpion's eyes lit up.
"So...... As long as I kill him again, I can ...... Get the Forbidden Violence Reward! β
