Part 2: Pre-war preparations

"The first stage of the competition will be held tomorrow, so please get ready."

A simple sentence from the passage had taught Li Huai to be so nervous that he couldn't sleep.

"Competitions? What will it be? He could only think about it all night, but the answer to it would not be known until tomorrow.

Kidnapping to catch someone to play?

Is it a duel like a bullfight to the death?

Do you want to play with people like poultry?

This night, Li Huai's heart only had questions and fears.

In the blink of an eye, it was already early morning the next day, but Li Huai, who was in the cell, could not see the sunlight outside, so he had no way of knowing the time.

"Click." The door lock suddenly opened, Zhang Luo left the cell as soon as possible, and then Li Huai walked out as soon as possible.

"Li Huai, I finally met you for real." Zhang Luo said with a smile.

"Hello, you are Zhang Luo...."

Zhang Luo's age is about the same as Li Huai, and he is also about twenty years old, but his appearance and temperament are very different from Li Huai, Li Huai is the standard "public appearance", that is, there is nothing special, not tall, but he will not say that he is short, not handsome and will not say that he is ugly, on the other hand, Zhang Luo looks handsome, a little taller than Li Huai, and at the same time exudes a scholarly temperament, and is much more fashionable and expensive than Li Huai in terms of clothing matching.

They looked at each other, and before they could introduce themselves again, the broadcast began again.

"Welcome to the first game of the 'Warrior Project', please follow the lights to the preparation room."

The two of them had no intention of escaping, as they both knew that the other would not leave the cell open unprepared, and that they could only follow the instructions on the radio in order to survive.

Pay close attention to the design of this dungeon is not much different from the common dungeon in the movie, the lighting is scarce, the surroundings are wet, the walls and floors are built with large stone bricks, the large stone bricks seem to emit a chill, and being in the stone brick passage makes people feel creepy.

They followed the light to a gate, which slowly opened.

The room behind the door is completely different from the dungeon, and it is full of ornate decorations, large and small, with tall stone statues, lifelike taxidermy, mountains of gems, and brightly lit designs. The magnificent room in front of them was what the radio called the "preparation room", a luxurious preparation room like a palace hall.

"It's finally here?" The young man sitting on the throne said, holding his cheeks.

Judging from the appearance, the young man was only about three or four years older than Zhang Luo and Li Huai, and he was wearing a strange costume, which was not right to say that it was strange, it should be said that it was a costume that would not be seen in this era - medieval knight costume.

"You're the one who got us?" Li Huai asked.

The young man shook the index finger of his right hand, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just in charge of bringing you to the playing field and telling you what the game is about." ”

"What kind of game is this? What is your purpose? Zhang Luo asked lightly holding his chin.

"Don't worry, I'll explain the content of the game slowly, as for the purpose of the game... I can't tell you, so that's it! Okay, pick a weapon from the arsenal over there for the first battle. He pointed to the side of the preparation room, a door that he couldn't find without paying attention.

"Yes, I forgot to tell you, my name is Wei Yun."

Li Huai didn't come to figure out all this, and he had been pulled into the arsenal by Zhang Luo.

There are many different types of weapons in the arsenal, from modern firearms to older cold weapons such as swords, bows and arrows, spears, and many other strange weapons.

"Listen to me, if we continue to develop, there is a good chance that there will be other people besides us in the next game, it may be their people, and it may be other people who have been caught." Zhang Luo said softly.

Li Huai had a puzzled expression on his face, "Why do you think like that?" ”

Zhang Luo responded unhurriedly while selecting weapons, "If it's a game between the two of us, wouldn't it be superfluous to take us somewhere else?"

And if the competition venue is not far away, we can use indicator lights or other methods to bring us to the venue, why should Wei Yun take us there himself? In this way, there is a high probability that the venue will be somewhere else, perhaps by means of transportation. ”

After Li Huai heard this careful inference, he agreed with Zhang Luo's statement.

Zhang Luo has already selected the weapon, "Don't slack off, he wants us to choose weapons, which also means that there will be casualties in this competition, all in all, let's choose the weapon first and then act at the opportunity, whether it is for the first battle or resistance." ”

Li Huai thought to himself: "Resistance? By the way, as long as you have weapons, you have a chance to resist them! Why I can't think of it! ”

Li Huai chose a long sword from the weapon pile, and if it was someone else, he would definitely choose a firearm weapon, because the firearm has high lethality and can keep a distance from the enemy, but Li Huai didn't choose a firearm, not for any special reason, but he didn't know anything about firearms, and he didn't even know how to shoot.

The two left the arsenal.

"Already have a weapon chosen? Then I'm going to take you to the playing field. Wei Yun took Zhang Luo and Li Huai to the other side of the preparation room.

Walking through the door of the preparation room, you will no longer be greeted by a wet wall, but a large space, a place that looks like a railway platform. Next to the platform, there are trains with five wagons.

"This. What is it? Li Huai looked at the train in surprise.

It's an underground railroad.

This is country A, and if you build an underground railway without permission, it is impossible for others not to find out.

But this train is nothing strange to this mysterious organization.

"Get in the car." Wei Yun walked to the train first, and Li Huai and the two followed his steps and walked into the carriage together.

The train officially departed, and immediately entered the dark passage.

"Then I'll start the commentary of the game: this game is an escape room, you will be taken to a basement located in the west of a certain place, the basement has a total of five floors, all you have to do is to escape to the ground, as long as you reach the surface, it means that you have completed the first game, it's that simple...."

In the middle of Wei Yun's explanation, white smoke erupted from all over the carriage, Zhang Luo immediately covered his nose, and after Li Huai accidentally inhaled the gas, he immediately felt a strong sense of sleep, and his eyelids instantly became heavy, so that he had to close his eyes, and when he woke up, he was already in a secret room.

"You're awake?" Zhang Luo sat next to Li Huai and asked.

"Here?"

"This should be the basement that Wei Yun said, I have a foreboding feeling, I better leave quickly." From Zhang Luo's eyes, we can see the fear from the heart, the fear of facing death.

The secret room they were in was like a normal bedroom, except that the door was made of steel, the door was locked, and except for this steel door, there were only a few small vents, which definitely met the definition of a secret room.

The room has all the furnishings of a normal bedroom, such as a bookcase, a double bed, a desk, etc., and a washbasin.

Li Huai twisted the lock of the door, "Damn, how can you leave if you can't open this door?" ”

Zhang Luo sat on the bed and asked, "Li Huai, your weapon is the long sword on your back?" ”

Li Huai touched the long sword on his back, "Well, what is your weapon?" ”

Zhang Luo took out a pistol, "That's it." ”

"A pistol? Then use him to blast the door open! Li Huai said excitedly.

"You can't do that. One: With the power of this pistol, it is also questionable whether it can knock the door lock, two: if the bullet shatters and bounces back, it may injure us, and three: we don't know if there are any other contestants, and the gunfire will reveal our position, which is not a smart thing. ”

What Zhang Luo said was very true, and Li Huai had no choice but to sit down boringly.

Zhang Luo walked to the low cabinet next to the bed, opened the drawer, and was looking for something.

Li Huai didn't understand the purpose of Zhang Luo's move, "What are you looking for?" ”

"Leave the props, since this game is an escape room, then there must be a way to escape."

That's right, since it's an escape room, how can there be no way to escape? Li Huai walked to the bookshelf and took down dozens of books from the shelfβ€”to check them out.

They put everything they found from the chamber on a wooden table, including: a strange blueprint, some wires, a red screw, a green screw, and a box of matches.

Zhang Luo picked up the design drawing and read it carefully.

Why is it a strange "blueprint"? Because there is only one rectangular shape on the design drawing, and the word "design drawing" is written on the top of the drawing.

Zhang Luo picked up the matchbox, lit a match, and put the design drawing on this ignition to bake, several circles appeared on the design drawing, and after finishing the paper drying, a total of five dots appeared on the design drawing. Zhang Luo said excitedly: "Sure enough, I know the secret of this room!" ”
