As the export got closer, the perimeter of the stall gradually decreased, and the noise also gradually decreased.
After walking for about 20 minutes, the familiar archway finally appeared not far away. If nothing unexpected happened, as long as they passed through that gate, the dungeon should be over.
Then without making anyone surprised, appeared.
... A black cloak slowly fell from mid-air, and said that classic line: "Friends who come from afar, if you had to choose one species to be with me forever, which one would you choose?"
The Grim Reaper now offered a choice of a dog or a cat. The cat looked like a Scottish Fold cat, with a long, silly face, lazily kneeling on the ground.
The other one was just a little white dog with only a big hand. Ever since it fell to the ground, it had been following the three tails in circles. At first glance, its intelligence didn't seem very high.
In the first round, Li He thought he had grasped the logical answer and casually answered, but was almost taken away by Death. At this moment, everyone was obedient. Looking at these two choices, although everyone had an answer in their hearts, no one dared to say it out loud. Instead, they awkwardly said to Death: "Let's discuss it..."
Death was as generous as ever: "Of course you can, my friend."
The eight survivors immediately gathered together, even Ye Xi who was suspected of being contaminated was not excluded. Seeing her previous performance round after round, Yu Ying who felt that she was contaminated was worried about her seed carrying rhythm, but could not help but want to listen to her analysis.
But Diep Tich was jealous and did not take the initiative to speak, planning to first listen to what others had to say.
Wang Li hesitated and said: "If you apply a logic... It should be a cat."
Dang Lam Lam: "For what?"
Wang Li raised his hand: "Look, the African snails are foreign species, and this cat is also a foreign cat, right? I remember that my country traditionally does not have such species."
Deng Lanlan was speechless for a moment: "That is… the African giant snail's key point is not 'alien', but 'invasion'! Invading species will destroy the ecological environment, causing irreversible damage, but this cat and dog..." Deng Lanlan's gaze swept past Wang Li's shoulder, looking at the two dogs that were obediently waiting to choose, "Although the species are different, they are clearly pets, whether or not they will cause damage depends on how the owner raises them, they can't be placed together with the African giant snail…"
"I don't know how to choose." Wang Li had a good temper, he didn't get angry when he was refuted, simply waiting for others to analyze.
Yu Ying said: "I also think that choosing cats is because 'dogs are friends with humans'. It is also possible that choosing anyone is not possible, because I heard that currently the cats and dogs that can be pets are both human-tamed… Not completely natural products?"
These two answers both make sense, and both don't make much sense. More importantly, they say the same thing.
Tieu Lanh looked at Diep Tich: "You say?"
Diep Tich was stunned, looked at him, and lowered her eyes: "I feel... Choose C." She gave a very vague answer, only letting everyone know that it was a choice between cats and dogs, but did not explain at all what "C" was.
His teammates couldn't help but wonder: "What did you say?"
Diep Tich nodded: "Right now I am under suspicion, so I won't analyze it."
"Alright, I'll say it." Xiao Leng smiled faintly, turned his head and asked Zi Shen behind him, "Mr. Zi Shen, can you tell us how old that dog is?"
Diep Tich's eyelashes trembled, her heart sank, knowing that he was thinking the same thing.
Death calmly told him: "Three years old. Cats and dogs are the same, also three years old."
Diep Tich said calmly: They all guessed correctly.
Tieu Lanh turned his face: "Three years old, for any breed of dog, is definitely an adult age."
In fact, if we count adult dog food, the vast majority of pet dogs can start eating dog food from the age of half.
"But that white dog is still so small, it means it is an unusual species." He said while looking at Diep Tich.
He really enjoyed watching her analyze.
Ye Xi, because he said half of it, there was no need to continue to be suspicious. When he saw his gaze, he naturally accepted his words and asked, "Although I have not seen it before, I feel that this dog must be the legendary 'teacup dog'. The teacup dog, whose body is so small that it can be put into a teacup, is a completely man-made product."
"Because of their pursuit of small stature, teacup dogs have serious genetic defects. Many teacup dogs have unhealthy stomachs and hearts. Some will get heart disease after just running a few steps; some have too small heads, and their eyeballs will fall out if they are careless."
"As for that cat, it's a chiseled cat." Her gaze shifted between her teammates, "The news about chiseled cats has spread quite widely, everyone should have heard of it, right? This is a genetic mutation, and although it will naturally appear during the breeding process of cats, the probability is extremely low. Therefore, the large number of chiseled cats that appear later are just like teacup dogs, all because of people pursuing results."
"And the chiseled ear cat is just like the teacup dog, it has a defective gene."
"According to the internet, raising a chitin cat is just like raising a child with congenital leukemia. It will need to take medicine and treatment all its life, and will be in great pain all its life. It is humans who, in order to pursue that little insignificant uniqueness and cuteness of the chitin cat, forcefully created this species."
She said up to here, the two species problems were already very clear.
However, Yu Ying still did not understand: "Then choice C is..."
Duong Ca got up and said: "You want to choose 'human'?"
Diep Tich nodded silently.
This segment had a very strong teasing feeling to her. Right now, when she said she chose humanity, she began to doubt whether she was really contaminated.
... This kind of self-doubt made Ye Xi take out the [Pure Water] and fiercely poured half a bottle.
It was the Grim Reaper who appeared with the topic, as if it could only be like this.
"Ai." Yang Ge sighed softly, raising his hand, "I agree. To be honest, on Earth it is indeed difficult to find a species with more lacking morality than humans."
Her words also sounded very polluted.
Ren Ningning nodded in agreement: "Indeed. Moreover, if we follow this way of thinking, humans have already met with bad consequences. They should not have been the ones to bear the pain. Damn it, humans are indeed..."
——If it weren't for Yang Ge and Ren Ning Ning's pets still following them, Ye Xi would probably feel that they had reached a situation where they were being polluted by the third young master.
Xiao Leng smiled comfortably, raised his head, and looked directly at Zi Shen: "Mr. Zi Shen, we all agree that among these two species, the one that deserves to die more is humanity. If possible, please take away the humanity that created this kind of tragic species."
He gave the answer, everyone stopped and breathed. Although everyone's analysis just now was convincing and they basically reached a consensus, but if they were wrong, who knows if this answer would make the Grim Reaper take them all away.
After a brief silence, Death God spoke: "It seems that some humans still have a flat heart."
"Thank you for choosing, my friend."
"I have no right to bring this kind of crime to humanity, but thank you for your sanity and kindness."
After speaking, a white light flashed in Death's hand and stopped on the cat and dog.
The cat's ears stood up, its eyes also changed, and its entire mental state changed for the better, becoming healthy.
The teacup dog's body gradually enlarged, finally turning into a normal sized puppy, barking towards the master.
Then the cat sneaked to the nearby tree, the dog happily ran towards the bustling market behind the people, the God of Death waved his sleeve and disappeared.
"It should be over now..." Li He looked back at the dog dog's retreating figure, his expression filled with anger.
The tycoon walked ahead again, walked for three or four minutes, and finally came out of the archway.
A red-clothed staff member greeted them first, enthusiastically and politely saying: "Dear customers, ahead is the Wilderness Flower and Bird Export Market. According to the rules, I would like to check your purchase records."
He said while evaluating the tycoon.
Each person was carrying a clear pot of flowers in their hands. Hearing what he said, everyone jumped out to buy "souvenirs" from the bird area and ornamental fish from the Fishing and Food area. Furthermore, they brought out various pets from the pet area, which just proved to be enough for the four areas to spend.
The staff member nodded in satisfaction, but when he noticed Ye Xi, his eyes dangerously and seductively became: "Miss, you are in the pet area..."
"Nha." Diep Tich dug into his pocket and took out a necklace. There was a round card hanging on the necklace. On it was written "Mao Mao", and below it was engraved a dog's favorite bone.
The staff member once again released a smile: "That's good, everyone take your time, welcome back next time!"
The customer group looked indifferent, no one paid attention to him "Welcome back next time".
Arriving at the main gate, the four people of the 17th group tacitly slowed down their steps, letting the other four participants leave the strange discussion first, then began to place the bullets in the main gate area.
This time the research institute prepared a total of 8 upgraded bullets for them. The installation method is the same as before, simple as before. Just stick it on the wall and it's done. The detonation method is also the same as before, using an app to operate.
As for "Upgrade", one aspect is the explosive increase in technical aspects, this Ye Xi once looked at the information provided by the research institute, but the reading experience is: I know each one, but when put together it becomes chaos!
On the other hand, the detonator confirmation delay from the app is increased by two seconds, which is a bit safer for the detonator team member.
So after the bullet was equipped, Diep Tich, Duong Ca, and Nham Ninh Ninh went first, confidently handing over the detonator task to Tieu Lanh.
Ye Xi opened the main door and blinked, a familiar white light covered the world. Only then did Ye Xi completely relax: But it's over!
A reminder was sent out: "Congratulations on passing the 'Flower and Bird Market Rules and Oddities' and obtaining the props reward. You can choose to upgrade your existing props, or you can also draw new props."
Before entering this strange chat, Ye Xi sold the [Prophet], and the [Distinguishing Dog] and [Reminder] in his hands had both reached max level, so he decisively chose to draw the new box!
Taking out 12 small blind boxes in a 4*3 format, they were placed in front of Ye Xi. Although it was completely impossible to see what was inside from the outside, Ye Xi still struggled for a long time before making a choice, choosing the one in the lower right corner.
After confirming the choice, the other box suddenly disappeared, the one she chose slowly moved to the center of her vision, then the box opened, a light effect appeared, after the light effect disappeared, what appeared in front of her was a clown mask that looked a bit scary.
Below write prop description:
[Fake Face Disguise]Start using props in the Rule Realm, you will be treated as a passerby by monsters, natives, NPCs, each time you start using a dungeon, effective time is 1 minute.
Favor?
Diep Tich feels this prop is a bit magical.
The so-called "Primordial Passerby" should actually be considered an NPC and a native, but compared to the two, "Primordial Passerby" almost has no sense of existence, nor does it have its own tasks and missions, belonging to the strange world "Passerby A".
For example, in the flower and bird market just now, those "customers" who appeared and disappeared at the end of the line must all belong to "Original Passersby".
"Being treated as a native resident by the monster" —— this means that if she activates the item when the monster appears, within that short minute, she will be treated as "a member of the family" by the monster. Thus, based on experience, some monsters that activate special abilities because she violates the rules will likely directly give up attacking her, neither will they kill her nor pollute her, which is equivalent to providing a shield.
"Being treated as a dungeon resident by the NPC" —— this means she can use that 1 minute to ask the NPC about things, although the short 1 minute of time spent chatting seems too short, and the NPC might not necessarily know the question she wants to ask, but one more chance is always better than none.
As for "Being treated as a native by the natives as a copy of the original dwelling person"... The first way Ye Xi could think of to use it was to start using the item when she suspected a certain participant was a native, then trick him, making him admit it. When the item's effect ended, she would use the "Transmigration to Origin Resident" mechanism to kill it and gain points.
So in short, although this prop is only effective for a limited time of 1 minute, within this 1 minute it can advance and retreat, just like eating the invincible star Mario, a capital letter awesome.
... This kind of prop, if sold, should be very valuable?
Haha, not for sale.
Diep Tich was satisfied and turned off the interface tool.
"Congratulations, you got a 'good' evaluation in the 'Death Test' segment, achieving a total score of 25 points."
After the reminder was fired, the white light began to rapidly dissipate. Ye Xi's legs hanging in mid-air slowly returned to the ground. While she stood firm, the last trace of white light was gone.
Eyes slowly focused on the surrounding light, Ye Xi gradually distinguished the surrounding scene——this was the rural market before they entered the Rule Realm. But after confirming the opening of the instance, the 17 logistics staff had already evacuated according to plan, and now it was already evening, the mountains and forests were quiet to the point of making people lose their minds, a few meters away several warm yellow light bulbs were secretly illuminating the surrounding border, looking very much like a classic horror movie atmosphere.
"Who is it..." Yang Ge and Ren Ningning also came out one after another, leaving Xiao Leng who was in charge of detonating the bullet a little late.
As for the previous step of leaving, Yu Ying, Deng Lan Lan, Li He, and Wang Li must have entered the strange pool from another nearby entrance, so the copy that left was also returned to its original location, and did not appear near them.
Confirming that he had returned to the real world, Duong Ca's entire body relaxed and he sat down on the ground without caring: "This dungeon is really a mess!"
"That's right, especially the bird holding area, it really doesn't speak of martial virtue." Ren Ningning sighed, "No wonder the survival rate is so low, it's too cruel."
They started with 24 people, only 8 people survived, survival rate. If we don't count their four 17 members, that's 20 people who entered, 4 people left, survival rate is only 20%.
For the 17th, such a tragic outcome has never happened in a long time.
Five minutes later, received news that another team member arrived at the scene, drove the car to pick them up and left.
Because it was already dark, the local squad arranged a hotel nearby for them to rest. The hotel was called "Golden Lion Hotel", a very impressive name, and it was said to be the most prestigious hotel in the nearby villages and towns.
But in reality, the interior facilities of the "Golden Lion Hotel" can barely compete with the most convenient and fast hotel in B city. The decoration and furniture are very old, but fortunately the dryer and air conditioner can still function normally.
When the hotel was in, the front desk waiter said that there were still many empty rooms, and they could arrange all their rooms together. But Yang Ge immediately suggested that Xiao Leng stay on the second floor, and that the three female students would stay on the third floor for the night, fearing that the hotel's soundproofing was not good, and that Xiao Leng would be embarrassed if he heard.
As soon as Diep Tich heard this, she guessed that she would probably become the center of this gossip discussion, but she was not conflicted about this.
... This is probably a special feeling of the girls in front of them. As long as everyone's relationship is not bad, then no one will mind sharing their gossip, making the sisters happy!
So the three of them agreed to go back to their rooms to wash up first, and after washing up, they went to Yang Ge's side to chat. In terms of washing up speed, Yang Ge and Ren Ningning, who had been trained by the police academy, were clearly much faster than Ye Xi. By the time Ye Xi finished washing up and went to knock on the door, the two of them had not only finished washing up, but had also gone to the food retail store downstairs to buy some snacks. At this moment, they were sitting cross-legged on the bed together, eating to their heart's content.
"Come, eat potato chips!" Ren Ningning opened the door, Ye Xi had just raised her head when she was thrown a lot of fun stories by Yang Ge, she quickly reached out to catch them, in her heart she was already prepared to start gossiping, but Yang Ge waved his hand, and said, "Let's take care of some work first, just a small matter!"
As she spoke, she took out a tissue and wiped her powdery fingers, then took out a handkerchief and wrote down the details for them: "Team Xiao just sent out news. There are actually four of us who have entered the dungeon, the other team has also entered."
1 team, is led by Truong Chieu, Duong Ca's little boyfriend Tran Dang Vu is also on the other side.
The two teams did not meet, which means that this dungeon must have many parallel space gates at the same time, like the strange rules of an amusement park.
In that instant, Diep Tich was a little nervous because of Duong Ca's words, and she instinctively worried that Tran Dang Vu would be in danger. But looking closely at Duong Ca's expression, Diep Tich immediately lost this kind of anxiety.
The person who confirmed that there was nothing wrong.
Yang Ge continued: "When we come out, we should have all been tested by the Grim Reaper and given extra points, right? Captain Xiao said that he and Captain Zhang were right, they found out that our side was 'good', but Captain Zhang's side was 'qualified', and only gave 10 points."
Ren Ning Ning "Who?" A sound, sat back on the bed: "What answer did they give?"
Yang Ge: "The previous two rounds were about the same as us, basically wandering aimlessly while being selected. In the third round, they also chose wrongly, and a teammate died. The main difference was in the fourth round..." Yang Ge paused, "They also discovered the problem of the genetic defect of the species, but they didn't expect that the one who deserved to die from this problem would be humans, so they handed both species over to the Grim Reaper."
Diep Tich was a bit surprised by this: "I thought that such a selection would not be an official, but it turns out it is possible? It just affects the bonus?"
If so, Death is strangely tolerant.
Yang Ge nodded: "Then what Team Xiao meant was, if both types of answers are possible, when writing the report, don't say it's dead, also mention another type of situation. That way, if by any chance the local team members are lazy and only read one team report, they can also understand two types of solutions, more or less they can accumulate more experience points."
After speaking, Duong Ca's eyes swept over the door between the two people: "—— So the question is, who wrote this report?"
For a moment, Ren Ningning looked at Ye Xi, Ye Xi looked at Ren Ningning, three seconds later, Ren Ningning turned around and said: "I definitely worship... Xi Xi said that she will only start working next year, at this time, all the missions are counted as overtime, you asked a very good question!"
"I just like you to understand yourself!" Yang Ge looked extremely satisfied with this. While speaking, he responded to Xiao Leng, then moved to the edge of the bed, reached out and grabbed Ye Xi: "Come, come, come, let's talk about business..."
Diep Tich has prepared himself mentally.
Duong Ca looked excited: "How far have you and Team Tieu come?"
"Ah... Just like that." Diep Tich sat down and said.
Just that one sentence was enough to make Yang Ge and Ren Ning Ning's expressions completely collapse.
Duong Ca sighed heavily: "Ai! I knew he was not smart in this matter, two idiots!"
Diep Tich thought for a moment, then said: "However... I feel very strange."
Ren Ning Ning was startled: "What 'very strange'?"
"It's just..." Ye Xi frowned, "I don't know how to say it. It's just… I feel that in reality, he is really 'clumsy', many small and insignificant things can make him become really awkward. But in a strange conversation, on the contrary, it's very natural."
In the Rule Realm, he seemed to have been pressed down by some kind of latch, even her mentality became quite different, between the two of them there would be a kind of inexplicable tacit understanding.
They could analyze the same result without any agreement, then sing and sing in unison to tell their teammates about the result. Occasionally, there would be something that one person thought of, but the other person didn't think of. Most of the time, as long as they said half of it, the other person could immediately catch up with the idea.
... This kind of female species invasion has no knowledge except for that.
Diep Tich did not know how Tieu Lanh treated this kind of tacit understanding, but every time such a situation appeared, she would have an indescribable joy, and after finishing the matter, she would still be unable to hold back the aftertaste.
Not only that, this time she also discovered that in the strange rules, he could also do good things to her very naturally.
When she had already suffered the terrifying and intimidating pain of the honey rabbit, he naturally held her hand, giving her some peace of mind; when she entered the clinic alone, where there was a high possibility of causing pollution, he naturally let the others go ahead, staying by her side alone, protecting her like a silent knight.
Although when she teased him about this matter, he hid his head and showed his tail and acted like he didn't do anything for her, but she still felt his heart.
Moreover, she was actually also touched, otherwise she wouldn't have advised Tieu Lanh to do so unnecessarily.:,,.
