Chapter 12: The 3 Minutes That Disappeared

Li Tianran wanted to withdraw his fist, but found that Zhang Quan's strength far surpassed his own, and he couldn't move at all.

"Do you still think I'm just the one who needs to be protected by my subordinates?"

Zhang Quan recalled the humiliation he had received before, gritted his teeth more and more, and his whole body subconsciously began to exert force when he spoke, and at the same time, Li Tianran obviously felt that his arm began to hurt.

"You all stop, there are only ten minutes of rest, and now it's almost two minutes, and there are less than eight minutes of rest left, and the top priority is to find a way to clear this level." Sun Yufan anxiously dissuaded the two.

Although Zhang Quan wanted to repair Li Tianran immediately, in the face of the current situation, he didn't want to waste too much time on the grievances between the two, and he wanted to use Li Tianran more favorably.

"Sun Yufan is right, now finding clues to clear the customs is the key, the master has no time to entangle with you." Zhang Quan slammed Li Tianran's hand on his face, turned around and jumped out of the ring, and walked out of the boxing ring.

Li Tianran stared at the ground, where Zhao Yuewen's corpse was lying on the ground, and there were still undried tears on the corpse's face.

……

Taking advantage of a few minutes of rest, Li Tianran and Sun Yufan quickly returned to the locker room, hoping to find some clues from there.

The moment they entered the door, they found that the place on the wall that had been destroyed by Huang Lang had a new look, and the entire wall was like new, and there was no flaw in it, and even Huang Lang and the other two corpses had disappeared.

"Isn't it, so you can't find any clues?"

Sun Yufan quickly ran to the location where they came in, groping back and forth for the wall, his face full of incredulity, and he had hoped to find some clues here.

After careful inspection, it was determined that there were no clues in the locker room, Li Tianran and Sun Yufan walked out of the locker room again and walked in the opposite direction of the ring.

"I always felt something was wrong, but I couldn't tell what was wrong." Sun Yufan smacked his mouth.

"Something is wrong?" Li Tianran.

"Well, from the beginning to the end of the game, I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it." Sun Yufan said with a frown.

"What's wrong, think about it." Li Tianran grabbed Sun Yufan's arms and waited eagerly, eager to hear something that might be useful.

"Hey, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, ......it hurts," Sun Yufan was caught by Li Tianran, and immediately called out.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Hearing Sun Yufan cry out in pain, Li Tianran let go of his hand in a panic.

Sun Yufan scratched his scalp and said that he couldn't tell what was wrong, but he just felt that something was wrong.

Li Tianran thought to himself, the remaining time should be less than 20 minutes, maybe it is really as Sun Yufan said, something is abnormal, even if this abnormal place is really the key to customs clearance, but if you can't find out what is abnormal, it is equivalent to nonsense, when the time comes, you still have to burp.

Li Tianran took a deep breath, tried his best to relax himself, and continued to walk along the road with Sun Yufan on the surface, but his mind was thinking quickly.

When I just woke up not long ago, and I didn't even enter the game, I received a broadcast that someone had cleared the second level, and someone had cleared the level, which fully showed that the second level was definitely not a dead end, but we missed some clues, some clues that could be cleared.

At the moment, all we know is the superficial rules of the game, first, knock down the champion, and second, you can't attack the champion who is our original replicant, otherwise you will take the same damage.

Isn't this very contradictory? If we can't beat the champion, how can we clear the level?

"That, I said......"

Sun Yufan thought about it and said.

"Huh?" Li Tianran.

Sun Yufan hesitated: "I don't know if it's my delusion, I always feel that the game time after we go to the ring is less than 15 minutes." ”

Hearing what Sun Yufan said, Li Tianran hurriedly asked, "What?" Less than 15 minutes? Why do you say that? ”

"Actually, I am a mechanical operator, usually operate the machine from start to shutdown, exactly 15 minutes, when I first started working, I need to stare at the timer, but over time, I don't rely too much on the timer, I feel that the time is almost up, and then look at the timer to confirm, and finally, I can grasp the time to 30 seconds before the machine is turned off."

Sun Yufan sighed, and then said: "But even if the time is really a few minutes away, what does it matter, anyway, we don't want to find a way to knock down those replicants, and when the time comes, we will still have to die." ”

Wait, a few minutes less? If it is true, as Sun Yufan said, he can be accurate to 30 seconds in 15 minutes, then he said that the time is a few minutes less, then there must be no doubt, but is this necessary?

Li Tianran thought for a moment and frowned: "Can you estimate how long it will be missing?" ”

"Between two and a half minutes and four-and-a-half." Sun Yufan thought for a while and said an approximate time, "I consider that I may be under some psychological pressure when I am in the game now, so I have extended the time period estimate a bit." ”

"But, absolutely, less time is definitely not going to be less than my budget." Sun Yufan became confident.

Li Tianran took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and his palms unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat, he was worried that if the time of the first half was deliberately shortened, then the second half would be the same.

According to Sun Yufan's time estimation compromise, if there are 3 minutes less in the first half and 3 minutes less in the second half, then the normal game will be 6 minutes less, and these 6 minutes are likely to be the key to victory.

Li Tianran bit his lip tightly and tried his best to think about any detail: think harder, what the problem is.

They continued to walk along the corridor, looking for possible clues, and after a few steps, Sun Yufan saw Zhang Quan walking towards them face to face.

"Huh? Are you going back? Sun Yufan asked when he saw the oncoming Zhang Quan.

"Go back? I came from there, and the whole passage was the same, nothing, Jiao. ”

Obviously, Zhang Quan was also nervous.

A curved passage, locker rooms, a boxing ring, nothing else.

"Please enter as soon as possible, the second half will be played in 30 seconds." In the corridor, the voice of the big-headed ghost baby echoed.

Li Tianran was still thinking about the missing 3 minutes, did he really deliberately shorten the time of the game? Or maybe the key to clearing the game is in these 3 minutes.

The three of them returned to the ring again, with their backs to the surveillance of the big-headed ghost baby, and in the face of the unattackable champion, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

"Okay, the second half of the game is officially started."

As the big-headed ghost baby announced the start of the second half of the game, the final battle for survival was directly on the verge of breaking out.
