Suspended iron cables, hundreds of feet of abyss.

Even if it is covered with tempered glass, it is estimated that the timidity will be enough to choke, not to mention that there are only three iron chains shaking in the wind.

So it's easy to say, in fact, as long as people go up, they are basically in a state of weak legs.

And the most important thing is not to stand on it, you have to move forward quickly.

Even if he is a mental guy with excellent physical fitness, it is very difficult to walk back and forth in a tense state of the whole body, let alone ordinary people.

If it weren't for the countdown and the same as the amulet, and there were dense human-faced spiders approaching below, it is estimated that most of the people would have collapsed to the ground by now.

What's more, after walking for so long, they have only completed six chain bridges, and there are still eight waiting for them behind.

If the prompt information of the stone carving base is foolish, it is not necessarily.

If you are in good physical condition, you can indeed choose such a path to clear the customs.

But it is definitely an impossible task to get two hundred people to pass collectively in ten minutes.

So Li Jiong's judgment must be right.

But the problem is figured out, but there is no solution, and saying it is equivalent to saying it in vain, just like not saying it.

For a while, everyone was anxious to become ants on a hot pot, and they all used their brains to help think.

"Teacher Li, just now Pan Shuai and the others resolutely broke the iron cable in order to avoid the monster attack, I think, can we start from this direction?"

Qiao Bin was assigned to the third group and is now the captain.

After going up to the stone pillar, he saw that everyone was not leaving, and when he asked the reason, he immediately came to Li Jiong and made suggestions from another angle.

"Actually, I've thought about this question." Li Jiong shook his head, "Where the chain bridge connects to the stone pillar, there is indeed a mechanism for breaking the bridge, but that is designed to prevent players from accidentally triggering the stone sculpture and cutting off the monster attack, and it shouldn't have much to do with the method of escape." ”

"I don't think so."

Qiao Bin listened, but disagreed:

"Wei Dongxu and the others chose the wrong direction at that time, so they triggered the stone carving mechanism.

However, if the activated monster is allowed to crawl through the chains, the player will definitely not be able to escape.

Therefore, in order to prevent the player from triggering the mechanism and causing the team to be wiped out, the game designer designed a wrench with a broken bridge.

Such a design makes sense.

But as I looked all the way, I found that all the chain bridges were equipped with broken bridge wrenches, regardless of whether they were on the right path or the wrong path.

Don't you think it's redundant to put such a mechanism on the right path? ”

Before, I only cared about crossing the bridge, and everyone didn't pay attention to this detail.

Now after listening to Qiao Bin's analysis, Li Jiong and the others immediately walked to the right path of the chain bridge, and sure enough, they found that there was also a wrench for the broken bridge.

"Could this be the deliberate effort of the designers to confuse our judgment of the correct path?" Qi Siming pondered.

"Makes sense." Li Jiong nodded, "If there is no broken bridge wrench on the correct path, it will be too obvious." That way, even if they can't crack the symbol of the stone base, the player will be able to find the right escape path. ”

"The more you analyze this, the more I think there is a problem."

Qiao Bin touched his chin, frowned and said:

"First of all, we were in an aerial labyrinth, and there was no other path than to take the chain bridge.

Then there are only two outcomes that will occur.

The first result is that the path is selected incorrectly and the monster is activated.

In this case, in order to save your life, it is natural to use the Broken Bridge Mechanism.

The second result is that the path is correctly chosen.

In this case, everyone passed smoothly, and naturally no one would pull this mechanism.

But with the speed at which we are traveling, even if we make the right choice every time, we will not be able to reach the exit before the countdown ends.

So I think that's exactly where the problem lies! ”

"What do you mean, the symbol of the stone carving base, is it a pit that the designer deliberately dug for us?" Qi Siming was surprised.

"That's right." Qiao Bin nodded, "We thought we had found a way to escape, but in fact, we have been wasting time!" ”

"But if we pull the broken bridge mechanism on the right path, if the bridge really breaks, won't we have no way to escape?"

The more Su Yudie listened, the more confused she became, and she couldn't help but interject.

"That's a good question." Qiao Bin said seriously, "Let's think about it from another perspective, if you were a game designer, would you design such a redundant mechanism to make the game a dead end?" ”

"No, it won't." Su Yudie shook her head, "If the escape room doesn't leave an escape path for the player, it's a failed work." ”

Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought and felt that it seemed to make sense.

"Time is pressing, everyone decides as soon as possible." Qiao Bin looked at the countdown and immediately urged, "Anyway, if you continue to move forward according to the road signs, there is a high probability that you will not survive regardless of time or physical fitness; And pull the broken bridge mechanism on the right path, in case you lose the bet, it is also a dead end, now it depends on whether you dare to play! ”

Indeed, there are only eight minutes left.

If you follow the previous practice, the probability of escape is really slim.

And according to Qiao Bin's suggestion, it is also possible to cut off the way directly.

The former seems to be safe, but in comparison, I think the latter has a higher chance of survival.

What's more, the dense spiders below have already climbed up halfway, and unless everyone has grown wings, there will definitely be no way to escape.

In this case, it is no longer a question of whether to gamble or not.

"Why don't you ask everyone's opinions?"

Such an important decision is related to everyone's life and death, Li Jiong thought about it, but he still didn't dare to act rashly.

"They are in a mess now, and they probably don't understand it after listening to it, and they don't need democracy at a critical time, let me do it."

Having explained so much, it has taken a lot of time.

How can we have time to ask for opinions one by one now?

Saying that, Qiao Bin no longer grinded, nor did he bother to listen to other people's opinions, so he directly pushed one of the wrenches.

Everyone saw him act decisively, and their little hearts were raised in their throats.

But it had come to this point, and no one stepped forward to stop it.

The wrench pushed, and the chain that I thought would break was only slightly shaken, and there was a 'click' sound.

Qiao Bin's eyes lit up, and he immediately pushed the wrench of the second chain, and there was a 'click' sound in an instant.

"It seems that my guess is correct!"

Qiao Bin couldn't help but laugh and pushed the wrench of the last chain again.

And this time, with a 'click', the three chains instantly tightened.

A rumbling sound sounded, from far and near.

Soon, everyone noticed that the stone pillar on the opposite side had begun to move towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye due to the pull of the chains.

And the distance between the stone pillars is constantly shrinking.

Looking at this scene, both the players and the audience were stunned.

"Damn, is this an aerial version of the moving maze?"

"Push the mechanism on the right path to pull the stone pillar on the opposite side, this design is amazing, isn't it?"

"The game designers are really cheating, and the symbol of the stone base is clearly a trap designed to delay the player's time!"

"That can't be said, the signposts aren't completely useless, at least the players now know which way to go, and they don't need to try one by one."

"Mm-hmm, this way, the distance of the chain bridge is greatly shortened, and they will definitely be able to reach the exit before the countdown is over!"

“……”

The audience was excited and swiped the screen one after another.

And looking at this scene, Xue Dong was also relieved.

Sure enough, there are still many people with great strength, and three stinkers are on top of one Zhuge Liang.

If Qiao Bin hadn't seen the problem, these people would probably be wasting time on the chain bridge stupidly.

Now that this level has been unlocked, if nothing else, there is a good chance that they will be able to pass the second level without any problems.

Although quite a few people died in the middle, the total number of players has been reduced to one hundred and eighty-three.

But fortunately, there are sixteen top 100 players left, and none of them are out of this round.

But even so, the situation is still not optimistic.

After all, the next third level is more difficult than the first two levels.

As long as you are a little careless, every minute is also the rhythm of group annihilation.

The reason why such a complex secret room was designed was because the simulator could be upgraded to select 100 players.

It stands to reason that a hundred people are escaping in an escape room, and there are 3,000 NPCs behind to help, and the probability of escape should be extremely high.

But it turns out that he was still careless.
