Chapter 99 Warm-up Game

As usual, they log into the altar at the Game Factory. When loading, An Wu Jiu suddenly appeared in An Wu Jiu's mind the electronic female voice that flashed in his mind when he just woke up in the red and black copy.

[You still have time……]

[Trust me, you will find all your memories. ]

[… must survive, come to see me alive. ]

[You need companions, never alone. ]

He used to think that this was the advice his mother left him, so he always followed her instructions, tried his best to help the people around him, tried his best to protect every hard-won companion, and didn't let himself be in a state of being alone.

But now it seems that this person should not be the mother.

She wants to live to see her by herself.

Who is it?

Could it be your sister?

What else is there to do?

Is something irreversible about to happen?

None of these mysteries have been solved yet, but at least one thing is true, his memory is slowly recovering.

Intuition tells An Wu Jiao that these are all related to his lost memory. As long as he can retrieve these memories and continue to pass the level alive, he will definitely find the answer, and maybe he can also find his sister.

There was not much time left for him to think. After the data was loaded, a brand new scene after initialization appeared in front of him - a room with rich decorations but very dim light.

There are no electric lights here, only kerosene lamps covered by a glass cover, and even the lamp posts are made of carved marble, which is extremely beautiful. There is no window in the room, and it is a little dark. In the center is a round altar carved out of a single piece of granite. Above the edge of the altar are twelve small statues, the size of a palm, some like angels, some like demons , each is different.

Twelve players this round?

Below the round altar is a carved bronze base that holds up an entire stone altar.

The other players also loaded in one by one, An Wujiu paid attention to the survivors who participated in the competition, and found that there are three or two new faces this time, they have already reached this round, and the remaining players will not be easy.

A young woman with short blue hair, a small body and dark brown lipstick, looked very maverick.

Another unseen face was a young man, European, tall with broad shoulders and handsome features, who looked Italian.

There is also a middle-aged man with Asian face, he looks about forty years old, although he is not young, his temperament is very unusual, his cold brows and eyes make An Wu Jiu feel very familiar.

But when the other party also swept his gaze to An Wu Jiu, those originally calm eyes suddenly swayed in panic, and his brows also wrinkled.

An Wu Jiu felt strange, he had never seen this man before.

Or, he was the opponent he met before he lost his memory.

Not wanting to establish a confrontational stance before the game even started, An Wu Jiu looked away.

Looking a little, he saw Wu You, and also saw a relieved expression on his face. But it is a new game, in order to avoid the other players being defensive, An Wu Jiu gestured to him, indicating that he should not come over yet.

Not only him, but Nanshan and Noah were also loaded, and there was also Toutang Ying, who was on the same team in the last round.

When he turned his head, An Wu Jiu saw a player he didn't want to meet in the game - Zhou Yijue.

He had a hunch that this time it would be another fierce battle.

Several other people also loaded them one after another. To An Wujiu's surprise, he actually saw Lao Yu, who was eliminated in the red and black dungeons, and the NPC brother who helped them in the previous dungeon, but this time he acted as a Players don't need to wear masks.

An Wu Jiu is not sure whether Lao Yu is the one where the NPC was resurrected as a player, but the Japanese boy must be.

It was probably the last time lied to him, but this time Lao Yu looked at him differently from the last time, and he was very cautious.

At present, there are eleven people in the room, Zhong Yirou and Yang Erci are not there.

An Wu Jiu was a little uneasy and lowered his eyes.

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat.

When he sensed something, An Wu Jiu raised his head, but the expectations in his heart were all in vain.

What he saw was not Shen Ti, but a strange middle-aged man. When the other party appeared, he looked calm and calmly swept the circle, just when he discovered the existence of An Wu Jiu, his whole person suddenly changed, as if he was greatly frightened, he took a few steps back, Even one leg was weak and sat down on the ground.

"You! You! An Wujiu... An Wujiu..."

His lips turned pale in an instant, from yelling to groaning, repeating An Wujiu's name repeatedly.

This person's reaction was too great, and many players felt it was strange, and they also retreated. Todo Sakura said first, "Hey, are you all right? What's the matter?"

The other party didn't want to respond at all, even one of his eyes was scattered and his legs were shaking, as if the An Wu Jiu in front of him was the evil ghost in hell.

But in the eyes of others, An Wu Jiu at this moment is clearly ignorant, and his eyes are full of doubts.

An Wu Jiu didn't understand what was going on.

But this man did become like this after seeing himself.

So An Wu Jiu took a step towards him and was about to speak, but the other party was so frightened that he almost crawled away.

"Don't come here! Don't kill me! Don't kill me..."

He put his hands on the floor, looked up at the ceiling, and looked at the people around him, "I...why am I here..." He saw An Wujiu move forward again, and curled up in fright, "Don't kill me. Me! Please don't kill me!"

The eyes of other players were all locked on An Wu Jiu, with suspicion, rejection, and fear.

An Wujiu's footsteps stopped.

At this time, he was no longer surprised by the strange behavior of the person in front of him, he was just worried about his next situation.

trouble.

The blue-haired girl squatted down first, "Get up first, no one here will kill you."

"Yeah." Toutang Sakura also bent down, "Is there any misunderstanding?"

Lao Yu glanced at An Wu Jiu coldly, then looked at the others calmly, "This is not necessarily true, seeing that he is so scared now, it seems that he can't pretend."

"Could it be that I encountered it in the previous game, so I recognized it at once." Zhou Yijue smiled and looked like a smiling Bodhisattva, but quietly poured dirty water on An Wujiu's head. superior.

"It seems that this player must be very powerful."

Just when everyone thought that the panicked person was the last player, the long-lost holy voice suddenly appeared.

"Player loading error, withdraw processing."

In an instant, the player curled up on the ground gradually turned into a blob of blue light, just as he was about to disappear, An Wujiu noticed the back of his neck.

There appears to be a number on it, 0.

He wasn't sure what he was seeing was right, after all the numbers had disappeared by a fraction.

Thinking in his heart, An Wu Jiu raised his hand and focused his eyes on the back of his hand.

"Rematch players."

"Successful match."

An Wu Jiu raised his head, wanting to see who the new match was.

Unexpectedly, this time, the altar seemed to listen to his heart.

His eyes met with Shen Ti, who was only loaded into the game at this moment, and his eyes met.

The corner of Shen Ti's mouth raised a smile, dispelling the haze that the strange incident had cast in An Wu Jiu's heart.

The hanging heart was put down a little, even though An Wu Jiu knew that if Shen Ti and him were in the same dungeon, if this dungeon was not a team competition, or it wasn’t for them to freely choose the team’s format, then it would be better to separate them from each other. The odds of surviving are much greater.

But even so, he hopes to see Shen Ti and stay with him.

He didn't want to leave here as a survivor after fighting and fighting for his life, but he couldn't find Shen Ti.

Just imagining this scene, An Wu Jiu felt unacceptable.

In his life, true and false, false and true, everything is unclear. His feet never seemed to be on the ground.

Especially when facing Shen Ti, An Wu Jiu always had a sense of unreality, as if the person in front of him was not real, but was created by him.

There will be no one in the world who exactly meets all his requirements, even his name is his motto.

He didn't want Shen Ti to disappear.

"Player loaded."

The long-lost holy sound appeared.

"First of all, welcome all survivors to this round of warm-up matches."

The room was not big, and twelve people unconsciously surrounded the round altar in the middle.

"You have won many times at the altar, and you have also failed, and you have received a precious opportunity to start over, so this round of games, please cheer up."

"Because, it is very likely that if you are not careful, you will be pushed out by the people around you and become a sacrifice."

After hearing this sentence, An Wu Jiu frowned slightly.

offerings...

"Then, I will now introduce the rules of the warm-up game to you."

As soon as the voice fell, a blue flame suddenly burned in the round altar, and the flame burned high, illuminating nearly half of the room.

A crystal ball appeared directly above the flame, and there seemed to be some kind of pattern reflected in the sphere, which was golden.

"Is that Jinshan?"

Noah spoke without hesitation.

"That's right." Shengyin responded to her question.

"What you are facing is an altar. You have seen it. The golden mountain is reflected in the crystal ball. This is a reward for you. There are a total of 60,000 points."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the players were different.

"so much……"

"All for the winner?"

Warm-up matches have monetary rewards.

And there are so many more. On average, each person can get 5,000.

An Wujiu did not believe that such a good thing would happen.

Sure enough, the next sentence of Shengyin broke their fantasy.

"These 60,000 points are not directly given to you, and you need your generosity."

At the same time, four frosted glass walls suddenly appeared on the floor out of thin air, surrounding the round altar burning with blue flames, only some vague shadows could be seen from the outside, and there was a small door on the side facing An Wu Jiu.

"The rules of this game are very simple. You can think of it as a sacrifice, but neither blood nor your life is needed, but the points in your hands."

Soon, a badge appeared on each of them, with a number and name on it, each person's number was different, An Wu Jiu was No. 1.

"Each of you goes in according to the number on the badge, and faces the altar to take out your points and sacrifice them. No one else can see how much you have sacrificed, which is equivalent to anonymity."

It appears to be a test of trust.

"If the total points of each of you sacrificed exceeds 48,000 points, then after the sacrifice ceremony, each of you will receive a reward from God, 5,000 points per person."

"On the contrary, if the total amount does not reach 48,000, then all the points you donated will be swallowed up and will not be returned."

Nan Shan raised her hand slowly, "Excuse me, what are the conditions for the winner?"

"It's very simple, first of all, your total must be reached, otherwise there will be no winners in this round of warm-up games. If it is achieved, think about it, each of you has received five thousand rewards, then minus what you sacrificed, you will be in your hands. There will be remainders, of course, there may not be, even liabilities."

"The criteria for judging the winner is simple, that is, the player with the most remainder wins. If there are more than one, it will be a tie."

"Everyone decides this round of competition system together, and individual advantages are automatically converted into conditions that are beneficial to the group."

"After you understand the rules of the game, everyone, you have thirty minutes to think and discuss."

A familiar countdown projection appeared above them.

"Start now."

The author has something to say:

The model of this game is derived from the public goods game model, but that will add value, and it is not exactly a type. I think it's more like the saying ""One monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, three monks have no water to eat".
