Chapter 3: Race to the Death: Rules of Survival

Brother Bang's words were like a bomb exploding in the heads of the other two newcomers.

I knew in my heart that this was just a game, and this guy's words were either malicious jokes or nonsense in the brain, but the aura that Brother Bang instantly exuded when he said this, as well as the inexplicable murderous aura around him, still made them unable to say a word of rebuttal.

"Is there any evidence? If you don't know each other, do you know which player is really dead in real life? ”

Lu Yu shrugged, he was the only one left of the three people who didn't seem to be affected by the atmosphere, I really don't know if he was bold enough or just nervous.

"That's what the last person who taught me the rules told me." Brother Bang lit a cigarette, and his hand seemed to be trembling slightly, "'If you have a chance to return to reality, keep an eye on the news.'" The sudden increase in missing people are people who have died in the game, while the bizarre deaths that suddenly burst open are people who are trying to reveal information about the game to non-players. ’”

"Revealing information?"

"I'll tell you all about it, I don't know how to die." Brother Bang said, "At present, there are two situations that are known to cause real death, one is to try to reveal the content of the game to ordinary people who have not participated in this game in reality, and there is no need to actually say it, as long as there is this thought, some unknown mechanism will be triggered, and the whole head will explode like a watermelon thrown from the sixth floor." ”

Brother Bang shook his fingers: "If you are interested, you can search for photos of several recent horror cases, and the way of death is like this." It's disgusting, so it's not recommended to watch it with a meal. ”

Guided by Brother Bang's words, even the disgusting shots of the people around him seemed to flash their heads exploding, and they couldn't help but tremble. Fortunately, Brother Bang has moved on to the second topic.

"The second scenario is to die in the game while the survival points are 0, or to cross 12 o'clock in the middle of the night."

The faces of the three newcomers changed at the same time, apparently remembering that they were now in a state of survival point 0. Not only them, but several old players present, including Brother Bang, did not look very good at this time.

Brother Bang said: "Survival points are intuitively speaking, just like the 'life' in the action game, if you die in the game, you will lose a 'life', and if you clear the customs, you will be rewarded with a different number of 'lives'." However, there is no chance to challenge again, and even if you have survival points left, if you die in the game, you will still be teleported to the lobby and will not be able to participate in the next game. ”

"If you lose, you lose 1 point, and if you win, you will be rewarded with a different amount." The glasses girl said, "In this case, you have to be brave enough to try, and the reward for one clearance is enough to make up for the loss of several failures." ”

"No, this is an inference based on the premise that there is no 'mortgage'."

Brother Bang shook his head and said: "The rule here is that every time you participate in the game, the system will ask you to pledge a certain number of survival points, and sometimes the game will give you a chance to choose whether to participate in the game according to whether the mortgage amount is acceptable." However, you only have the right to refuse at most once a day, and the second time you will skip the selection stage and go straight to the game. Sometimes the system also forces the player to accept. ”

Lu Yu thought about it for a while, he didn't have a chance to choose before entering this game, that is to say, the first time he participated in the game, he bumped into compulsory acceptance, and this character was really impeccable.

Brother Bang continued: "The survival points of the mortgage will be deducted from the existing points, and the points taken to the mortgage can only be taken back after successfully clearing the customs, and once it fails, it will be taken away by the system." For example, the game we are participating in now is 4 points that need to be pledged, which means that once we clear the level, we can gain 3 survival points, but if we fail, we will not only lose 1 point of death loss, but also lose up to 4 survival points for collateral. ”

Brother Bang looked around and said, "I think you've all noticed that most of us here have nothing left after paying the mortgage points. In this case, if you die in the game, you are really dead, but if you win, you can live for an extra week! ”

He waved his fist and suddenly shouted loudly: "Let's work together, let's work together!" Take this game to conquer! ”

"I see."

Lu Yu thought to himself. Brother Bang suddenly became excited as he said this, in addition to the reason why the game was about to start, most of it was related to the increasing psychological pressure during the narration. It seems that regardless of whether the truth is true or not, death in the game leads to death in reality, at least in his heart.

And although Brother Bang was a little confused in the end, his words revealed a few points of information.

First, 3 of the game level 3 of clubs is obviously the bonus points. If the 3 of clubs is designed to correspond to playing cards. This means that there are probably three other suits in the game, and the maximum number of bonus points is 13.

Second, if you win, you can live for an extra week, which means that the 3 points of the reward plus 4 points of collateral points correspond to seven days of life. This is in line with the "crossing 0 time" mentioned by Brother Bang before. It seems that the premise of this game is that 1 survival point will be automatically deducted every 12 o'clock in the evening.

As for the third...... Lu Yu glanced at the task prompt on the edge of his field of vision, and it just so happened that at this time, Brother Bang also let out a puzzled "huh".

"Strange, I answered at least three questions?" Brother Bang looked at the task prompt that was not ticked, and became a little anxious. Although the reward of this 1 point is not very much, and you must wait until you clear the customs to get it, but this is also a matter of your own life.

As if seeing through his doubts, Lu Yu said: "Probably because the system thinks that the concept of 'survival points' involves the three-dimensional part, so it can't be regarded as the basic rule of 'game'." ”

Lu Yu's fingers lightly tapped on one of his temples, which was his habitual action when thinking.

"So, whether the death setting is true or not, at least the game is still very careful in these details." He said to himself, "Although it is not impossible for a group of veteran players to join forces to scare newcomers, this thing will not bring them any benefit, and the fear shown just now is a little too divine if it is acting, at least it is also the state of everyone being frightened by the game...... Is there any credibility in this view, although it is a bit ridiculous......"

"Hey, what are you muttering about there alone!" Brother Bang pushed him and said dissatisfiedly, "If this game hadn't stopped the fight between players on the same team, I really wanted to beat you annoying boy hard!" ”

"Didn't you just say, 'Let's all work together.'" Lu Yu smiled.

"You!"

Brother Bang was just about to have a seizure, when the beep of the system suddenly sounded in his ears. While they were talking, the five-minute preparation time had already run out.

All of a sudden, the lights in the tunnel came on, and the light that poured out instantly made everyone present dazzle. Fortunately, the lighting was not too strong, and after a short period of adaptation, they could see their environment clearly.

As Lu Yu thought, this is a highway tunnel, and if you look into the distance, you can faintly see a few cars parked in the middle of the road. They were not far from one end of the tunnel, but the other end of the tunnel was now sealed with heavy cement.

"Looks like we're going to get out of here, only from the other end of the tunnel." Lu Yu thought to himself.

"Found it, found it, the hint is here." An old player suddenly shouted, and everyone immediately gathered around. I saw a metal nameplate nailed to the wall on one side of the tunnel, according to the rules of the real world, this is generally used to indicate the construction unit and the year of completion, but in this game, it conveys the information needed to continue the game.

[Game Name: Death Race, Level: Club 3, Number of Players: 10]

[Game goal: survive the "Three Trials" and run through the "Finish Line"]

【Distance to the end of the line?】 KM】

The key figures seem to have been scraped off and appear blurred. While the crowd was still thinking about the meaning of the target, a sharp-eyed man pointed to the opposite wall and shouted. Lu Yu looked intently, only to see that the originally smooth wall suddenly opened, and three neatly arranged LCD LEDs appeared from the back. All three show the time in big red numbers, and the countdown starts as soon as it appears.

The difference is that the three countdowns are twenty minutes, forty minutes, and sixty minutes, respectively.

"Looks like the hint is already obvious." Brother Bang pondered for a moment and said confidently, "These three countdowns correspond to the 'three trials' mentioned in the prompt, which seems to mean that some kind of trap will be launched as soon as the time comes." And what we're going to do is simple......"

He pointed to the other end of the tunnel and shouted, "Run!" Run to the end of the end and we're ready to go! Judging from the countdown time, this distance should not exceed 20 kilometers, everyone hold on and must live! ”

Brother Bang's words aroused the approval and applause of everyone present, and everyone was about to set off, when Lu Yu, who had been looking around, suddenly said "Huh".

"Didn't you notice this?" Lu Yu pointed to the shadow in the corner of the wall and said, "There is a door here marked 'emergency exit', you can just go out from here, right?" ”
