Chapter 458 [Fantasy Showdown] (1): Temple Escape
Seeing these two options, Su Yu couldn''t help but be speechless.
Is there a difference between the words "be" and "participate"? This should be forcing him to participate, right?
??And the selection countdown is very fast.
Three seconds later, Su Yu''s consciousness, who had not yet made a choice, left his body and was forcibly transported to the illusion copy. His true body fell straight onto the cold floor of the third floor of the mage tower.
??Cat Chenxing is still enjoying snacks on the table.
She was shocked when she saw Su Yu falling straight down.
"Nemesis, what''s wrong with you?" Chenxing jumped down from the table and jumped in front of Su Yu''s head, stretched out his front paws and shook him desperately.
But Su Yu remained motionless as if he had turned into a vegetative state.
?Back to Su Yu''s perspective, the things in front of him were constantly distorting and changing.
About 5 seconds later, his consciousness came to gray spaces one by one.
?There is nothing around this gray space, giving people a particularly depressing feeling.
The only thing he could see was something like a "prompt board" directly in front of him. The panel of the prompt board is translucent and looks very textured, with "27/100" written on it in light blue.
The number "27" keeps increasing. After about 5 seconds, "27" increases to "100", and the number on the prompt board stops at "100/100".
A cold female voice sounded in Su Yu''s ears: "The number of participants in this fantasy showdown is full. Please get ready, all contestants. This round of showdown will officially begin in 10 seconds."
“10, 9, 8”
Su Yu was slightly startled when he heard this female voice.
He can guarantee 100% that this voice is definitely Bernina Tide!
??Why did Bernina come to make a cameo in Fantasy Showdown?
?But he didn’t have time to think too much.
The 10-second countdown ended quickly, and the gray space in front of Su Yu shattered like glass, replaced by a dark and dry corridor.
?This corridor is about two people high and one person wide, and is surrounded by earth-yellow mud bricks.
??Sunlight shone in from the hole above the corridor, allowing Su Yu to barely see the surrounding environment clearly.
The front of the corridor is dark and I don’t know where it leads, but there are gold coins floating on the ground.
“Roar!”
A loud monster roar sounded behind him.
In the shadows behind the corridor, a furry, gorilla-like monster with a terrifying face jumped out of the shadows. The wooden stick in his hand was mixed with the whistling wind and it was knocking towards Su Yu.
Su Yu sensed it a little and found that the gorilla was probably at the third level of strength, while the human body he controlled was only at the second level, and its defense was very weak. Once it was hit by this stick, it would definitely die!
?The moment the gorilla appeared, his body began to run forward uncontrollably along the corridor.
?At the same time, Bernina’s prompt sounded in his ears: “Welcome adventurers to the random level, [Temple Escape].”
“You are an adventurer who comes to an ancient temple to hunt for treasure, but you are chased by a monster.”
“Your body is running forward uncontrollably. The only actions you can take are turning, jumping, small left and right movements, and lying backward. You cannot use any skills.”
“In the whole process, you will climb over the walls of ancient temples and climb up cliffs. You can move left and right in small steps to collect gold coins on the track. If you make a mistake and run off the track or are overtaken by monsters, you will be judged as the loser.”
“The running process will last for 10 minutes. At the end, the player who collects the most gold coins will become the winner and advance to the next round.”
"It''s actually a temple escape." Su Yu couldn''t help but twitch the corner of his mouth while running. He has experienced built-in mini-games like Temple Escape in his previous life. The difficulty lies in reacting quickly, turning in time, and avoiding various obstacles.
? Players who react slowly may not turn around when they should turn, causing them to hit the wall or run off the track directly, and thus be eliminated.
Su Yu didn’t expect that this little game would become the first illusion.
?However, since Su Yu has experience, he can run much more calmly on the track than other players.
Turn left, turn right, jump, turn right.
After leaving the corridor, Su Yu ran methodically on the temple wall, and at the same time adjusted his running route in time to allow himself to eat more gold coins.
The number of players participating in the run is gradually decreasing. Just after running 200 meters, the number of participants has dropped from "100/100" to "78/100".
Su Yu didn’t care too much about the number of players and tried his best to complete the game at his own pace.
The number of participating players continues to decrease.
At approximately 600 meters, the number of participants had dropped to “50/100”.
But at this moment, a dazzling red light suddenly lit up around Su Yu''s vision, and the red light continued to flash.
“Warning! Warning! About to enter the second stage, 3, 2, 1, 0.”
??As the warning countdown ended, the "gorilla" who was chasing after Su Yu 5 meters behind suddenly threw the wooden stick in his hand.
??The wooden sticks flew towards Su Yu''s legs mixed with the whistling wind.
“Holy shit!” Su Yu said “C language”.
He quickly adjusted his position to the right, and calculated the speed of the next ground obstacle and wooden stick. He jumped twice in a row to avoid the obstacle and wooden stick. He also made a thrilling turn and finally missed the edge without leaving. Runway, turning danger into safety.
“I’ll go, it’s really a bit dangerous!” Su Yu wiped his sweat and felt a little worried.
Fortunately, he had quick reactions and sensitive senses, and was able to detect the danger coming from behind in time, otherwise the car might have rolled over!
I glanced at the number of players who continued to persist. Now the number of players was only "33/100". It was obvious that a dozen guys had failed the test just now.
?But before Su Yu could take a breath, the red light came again!
“Warning! Warning! About to enter the third stage, 3, 2, 1, 0.”
Su Yu felt nervous and immediately mobilized all his attention to pay attention to the surrounding environment, especially the "gorilla" behind him. This guy couldn''t throw anything again, right?
Then it was beyond Su Yu''s expectation.
??There was no sudden incident after the countdown ended, and the gorilla did not throw debris. Instead, the running speed of the character he controlled doubled in 5 seconds!
?Su Yu''s character has now left the temple walls and is walking on the ridge of a hill.
The violent acceleration made Su Yu almost stop his feet and fall off the ridge!
Fortunately, Su Yu relied on his strong psychological quality to change the rhythm in time, so the character was not controlled due to being in a hurry.
??However, other players are not so lucky. The double speed makes many players unable to react at all.
In just 20 seconds after entering the third stage, the number of players quickly dropped from "33/100" to "10/100". Almost every second, a man rushed out of the track.
When the number jumps to "10/100", the dazzling red light lights up again.
“Warning! Warning! About to enter the fourth stage, 3, 2, 1, 0.”
