Chapter 128 Dilemma
?In just ten minutes after the rules of the game were announced, hundreds of people died. Some of them were lost in the roulette game, and others died because they were frightened and forced to run out of the black and white roulette range.
In order to prevent panic from triggering a new round of suicides, the government had to use force to block tens of thousands of people in the turntable area and evacuate surrounding households.
“…Try to stay where you are and don’t move around. Rescue workers have entered the blockade area. The country will not give up on anyone…”
The video phone scrolled with government announcements, and also showed some footage of rescue workers entering the blockade area. Xu Huo could see that although those people were uniformly dressed, some of their movements were obviously untrained.
They are players.
The government wants to use players to attract attention, delay time, and gain the opportunity to drain money from the bottom of the cauldron.
?At this time, someone must have been quietly approaching the skyscraper.
Xu Huo took a look at the tickets. Except for the latest one that went to the Jimu Fairy Tale Town stop five hours later, the other tickets would have to wait five days at the earliest.
If the players in the outer areas are still scattered around the world, the time can still be delayed for a few days, but now the organization calling itself the Knights of Sophistication has attracted a large number of players to the sea city for unknown purposes. No super props have been seen in three days. This The gangsters will definitely vent their anger on Haishi and even the entire country.
?His original plan was to disguise himself as a player from outside the area to steal the super props, and then use the dungeon to escape to attract the attention of players in each area. As long as the super props can no longer appear in area 014, the crisis will naturally be resolved.
Even if there are players from other areas arriving in the future, it will not be a situation where large numbers of high-level players will gather.
But now something unexpected happened and he was trapped in a black and white life and death situation.
??If this is a copy, then the ticket is most likely unusable, let alone diverting attention.
? It is easy to verify whether you can escape from the black and white life-and-death situation by relying on tickets. You only need to pay attention to whether other players have successfully escaped, or directly experiment with Wang Chaoqing.
But regardless of whether he succeeds or not, he cannot leave for the time being. Once he escapes through a copy, he will not be able to return to Area 014 for at least a few days.
What will happen in these few days is unpredictable.
??In addition, because of the Knights of Sophistication, Haishi is no longer suitable for him to implement his plan, so although the government has definitely sent out manpower to find the instigator, he still has to find another way to escape from the black and white life and death situation.
“Wait a minute! How long do we have to wait?” Wang Chaoqing, who failed to get the ticket from him, smashed his cup angrily.
?Xu Huo raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then continued to look down at his phone.
Seeing that he was silent, Wang Chaoqing had no choice but to come over in compromise, "Brother, please think of a solution quickly. You can''t just wait to die."
“There is no better way now but to wait.” Unless the government solves this crisis, the only way out is from the life-and-death situation.
"I can''t wait if you can. Even if you rob me, you have to grab a ticket!" Wang Chaoqing turned around and was about to walk out, but when he walked to the door, he saw the **** thing on the door and became timid again. Especially when he turned around and saw that Xu Huo was not there. Without any intention of stopping him, he said dejectedly: "Tell me, what do you want me to do before you give me a ticket?"
"Go and have a look at the skyscraper." Xu Huo gave him a serious look. "You don''t have to do anything. If there are foreign players in the skyscraper, find a way to follow them. If there are no foreign players, come back."
“Is it that simple?” Wang Chaoqing looked at him in surprise.
“Is there anything else you can do?” Xu Huo asked. "That''s true." Wang Chaoqing scratched his hair, took the store manager''s laptop and put his hand on it.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. It was an old couple.
“We want to find a place to sit for a while.” The two of them were a bit older. They waited outside for a long time and could not see the rescuers, so they had to find a place to stay.
?Every seat in the shopping mall was full, and other stores were equally crowded. Only the store where Xu Huo was located had experienced a death, and no one came in.
?The store manager hesitated for a moment before going over and opening the door, taking the people in and pouring them water.
"Thank you, thank you." The old couple thanked them repeatedly, and the store manager quickly told them Xu Huo''s words before, and added: "If you two see the turntable, be sure to look carefully, maybe you can save thousands of people." Tens of thousands of people.”
“Store manager, isn’t this good?” the waitress couldn’t help but said.
"What do you know? The more people there are, the greater the chances." The store manager scolded. If he wasn''t afraid that Xu Huo might ignore them when there were more people, he would have gone out to get people.
The waitress wanted to say something else, but Xu Huo interrupted her, "It''s nothing. The turntable should appear randomly. It has nothing to do with the large number of people and the small number of people."
After hearing what he said, everyone sat down again.
? Xu Huo checked the time again. It had been almost twenty minutes since the last wave of explosions, and no new life-and-death situation had appeared yet...
“Bang!” Just as the thought flashed across his mind, a waiter near him suddenly stood up and knocked over the water glass on the table.
“Turntable! Turntable!”
?He stared straight ahead and waved his hands wildly. Before others could catch him or move away, the others exploded into blood foam, and a large amount of blood splashed on the ground and table.
“Ahhhh!” A new round of screaming broke out in the store. The painting girl put down her phone, grabbed a few tissues and stuffed them into their mouths.
“Why did he die so quickly?” the store manager said in horror: “Isn’t there a ten-minute countdown?”
“His hand moved around and hit the turntable.” Xu Huo said solemnly, “The more you panic, the faster you will die.”
"Then tie them up..." Before the store manager could finish speaking, two voices suddenly sounded, one from the waitress who climbed on the table before, and the other from the old lady of the old couple who came in just now. .
??Having learned the lesson just now, Xu Huo immediately clamped the arms of the waitress, and the old gentleman chose to hug the old lady to prevent her from moving.
Fortunately, the two people calmed down quickly after the initial panic, especially the waitress. Although her eyes were blank, she kept shouting: "A turntable more than one meter high! Stand in front... there is a countdown on it. …The countdown is jumping…nine minutes and fifty seconds, nine minutes and forty-nine seconds, nine minutes and forty-eight seconds…”
Xu Huo tried to wake her up, but she quickly instinctively focused on the turntable like the previous person, counting down the seconds!
"Tie her up quickly!" the store manager said hurriedly: "Since she will die if she is transferred, maybe she can survive if she is not transferred!"
?Others went to find ropes as if they were waking up from a dream, and tied her and the old lady to stools while the waitress counted down.
