Under the unknown circumstances, Xia Ruize was not prepared to easily expose his bloodline ability.
He struggled pretentiously at first, but of course he couldn't get rid of it. There was nothing he could do, he tried to trace his hand along the gap between the belt and the bed to the bottom of the bed.
Knowing that the scissors were tied to the bed board on the right side, Xia Ruize still explored the left side vigorously. After no results, he went to the right side. Sure enough, he managed to touch the scissors.
The next step was the process of cutting the belt with scissors without acting.
The sound of "grumbling" and "grumbling" was accompanied by Xia Ruize's movements, but the corners of the wall had already started to pour water into the room. The current rate of watering was relatively slow, but the sound seemed to have a life-threatening effect.
Xia Ruize didn't know that at this time, he was not the only poor creature fighting with the belt. At the same time, there were 99 people in the same situation as him.
A total of one hundred contestants who participated in this issue of "The battle of Kings" were distributed in one hundred identical rooms. They all heard the rules of the game read by weird sounds, and all heard the sound of urging water.
The contestants had different methods to deal with the dilemma, and several of them had outstanding performances.
A burly man with a height of two meters and big muscles roared, his whole body was accumulating energy, and he tried to break his belt directly!
The strong man blushed and his neck was thick. Although he failed to break the belt, he bent the metal bed board, enough to see his strength.
The brawny man was particularly unsatisfied and continued to exert his strength. He still failed to break the belt, but broke the buckle at the junction of the belts tied to his chest. After success, the brawny was inspired and continued to exert his strength, getting out of the bondage state.
Another middle-aged man, who was originally tall and tall, seemed to be able to shrink bones. He squirmed for a long time, and his whole body shrank. The belt that was originally tightly bound suddenly became much looser. He just rubbed it like that. Climbing out from under the straps.
Of course, these performances could only be regarded as ordinary, there were even more amazing ones.
Someone didn't find the scissors tied to the back of the bed, but for some reason a knife came out of their hands and started cutting the belt neatly. What's more, someone cast fire out of their hand and burnt the belt.
Such an unexpected scene made the organizers and the audience watching these contestants dumbfounded. What was the situation?
All contestants had undergone strict inspections and body searches before being put on the arena. How could these people hide weapons on their bodies?
That's right, the hundred players who participated in the Battle of Kings were not alone in the game, because countless cameras were aimed at them, and outside the arena, there were strong organizers and countless spectators witnessing their performance.
Decades ago, a sudden cataclysm broke out on the planet Rogge. The human world was captured by mutant creatures. After years of arduous battles, mankind relied on the development of science and technology, especially the upgrade of weapons, to obtain the ultimate victory and successfully suppress mutant creatures and once again become the overlord of Rogge planet.
After the life-and-death crisis had passed, humankind had developed rapidly. Relying on the continuous development of technology, ordinary people could live easily, and the upper-class powers could enjoy the prosperity and wealth in peace.
Over time, some human beings at the top of the pyramid felt that life was too boring and began to pursue excitement, and the "black games" came into being.
The so-called "black games" were underground games held privately that were not allowed and recognized by the federal government. The characteristics of this type of games were very bloody and thrilling, so as to attract the attention of people seeking stimulation.
"Battle of Kings" was a typical black game, and it was the black game with the largest scale and the highest ratings.
The Battle of the Kings was held every six months, and 100 contestants were called in each period. The organizer reaped wealth by opening gambling games based on the performance of the contestants.
Therefore, in the unknown situation of the contestants, there were countless cameras tracking their performance, and a large number of viewers commented on them.
Today's battle of kings was destined to be interesting, because among the 100 contestants on the scene, there were mixed trialers from the endless world. Those few who brazenly took out their weapons directly from the space were exactly this group.
However, their unusually reckless behavior had caused the organizers of the background monitoring to spot them.
The scissors weren't very sharp, but the belt was tough enough. After a long time of grinding, Xia Ruize finally broke the belt on his neck, and immediately felt that his breathing was much easier. Next, he cut off the belt on his chest, and then his body twisted and twitched, pulling himself out from the remaining three belts.
When he was scanning the space, he noticed that there were prints on the back of the belt. After getting out of trouble, Xia Ruize pretended to discover the secrets on the belt and kept in mind the five letters engraved on the back of the five belts.
Xia Ruize's performance in getting out of trouble was too ordinary, it was the correct method designed by the organizer to get out of trouble, so his ordinary performance was not noticeable, except for a few viewers who pay attention to appearance, most of the audience who pursue excitement focus on the performance of strong players.
Xia Ruize, who didn't know anything about it, continued his performance cautiously.
He walked back and forth in a closed room, seemingly looking for clues aimlessly, but in fact, he was using the ability of space retrospective to form a three-dimensional view of the entire room in his mind, or a three-dimensional view of a non-private version.
For example, a locked refrigerator was piled full of ice cubes, and one of the ice cubes was wrapped with a code.
The closet door was locked tightly because there was a piece of clothing in the same color as the bed sheet, and there was a letter containing the password information in the pocket of the clothing.
Inside the bedside table was a password box with feathers in it…
After all the key points were discovered, Xia Ruize had already deduced the correct way to open the door in his mind. But he still pretended that he didn't know anything, step by step to crack the way the people behind it wanted to see.
For example, the letters on the back of the five belts that tie him could open the combination lock on the refrigerator door.
After opening the refrigerator, it was filled with ice bricks. Pushing all the ice bricks to the ground, Xia Ruize pretended to look for a bit but couldn't find a clue, so he vented his anger and smashed all the ice bricks on the wall. Then, after one of the ice bricks broke, it revealed a unique inside-there was a picture of a child's graffiti.
Of course, the real meaning of this graffiti was that the respective quantities of the four fruits painted on it add up to a four-digit code that could open the code lock on the closet door.
After the wardrobe door was opened, all kinds of clothes were hung inside. Xia Ruize tasted the sweetness of violence, and immediately began to ruin the clothes. Each piece of clothing was lifted up and shaken vigorously, even tore the inner lining, looking for clues violently.
Sure enough, he shook out a piece of letter paper in the pocket of one of the white clothes, on which were written three inexplicable love poems. The first word of each love poem was combined to be the unboxing secret of the lockbox in the bedside table.
As a matter of course, the safe in the bedside table was also opened, and a white and soft feather was neatly placed inside.
After this series of performances, the water level in the enclosed room had already flooded Xia Ruize's calves, and he was not ready to continue the performance. After picking up the feathers representing the clues, his gaze turned decisively to the only item in the room that contained feathers—the pillows on the bed.
After violently tearing the pillow, a key fell out of it, which was the key to open the door of the closed room.
Xia Ruize took the key and walked towards the door of the room. There was a strong ridicule flashing in his eyes. The person who designed this level was really bad. Putting the final pass key in the pillow closest to the contestant at the beginning, making the whole search process seem like a joke.
This game was called "Battle of Kings" and there must be other contestants.
If there was a player who couldn't connect the clues smoothly and was driven crazy by the rising water level, under the pressure of death, he would vent and destroy all the facilities in the room, and would eventually get a key to the clearance from the broken pillow. I am afraid that he could experience a change in an instant. From being on the brink of desperation to the feeling of a bright future, he had to say that the scene must be very dramatic.
Xia Ruize guessed right. At this time, the contestants in each room were showing their magical powers.
Others didn't have Xia Ruize's blood abilities; whose mental powers could ignore obstacles and know all the areas around their bodies, easily getting all the clues and successfully finding the key to open the door.
From the beginning of groping for the scissors to opening the door with the key, Xia Ruize spent a total of 20 minutes, of which six minutes were used to get out of the state of being bound, four minutes were used to explore the entire room, and the other time was deliberately use for show.
The contestants who were stuck in the first step and couldn't break their belts aside, except for Xia Ruize, most of the contestants tried to attack the closed door as soon as they were unbound.
This time, someone even had a powerful thermal weapon in their hands, and started to vent bullets at the door of the room.
Seeing such a scene, the director of the organizer monitoring the overall situation was so angry that he yelled:
"Check it out for Laozi1! How did those bastards bring such big weapons into the arena! Get them to death! All bastards who break the rules must die!"
Compared with those inexplicable and wonderful players who had more weapons in their hands and were obviously prepared to break the rules and affect the ratings, Xia Ruize was a very comfortable player who was "well-behaved" and "obediently" clearing the game according to the rules.
Therefore, when Xia Ruize successfully opened the door of the room, the floor of the room suddenly opened the drain, and the stagnant water quickly passed away. At the same time, the eerie and weird voice sounded again:
"Congratulations on becoming the second warrior to pass the first level. The remaining time in the first level will be your rest time. As a reward for the second place, we have prepared a generous gift for you. I hope that there will be another exchange, hehehehe…"
Xia Ruize was a little surprised. He had already procrastinated to perform, but turned out to be the second person to walk out of the room? Are the contestants too bad or too few contestants?
What Xia Ruize didn't know was that the first player who managed to get out of the room, after trying his best to get rid of the bondage, immediately tore his pillow to vent his anger, and got the key with ease, omitting all the links in between. Xia Ruize walked out of the room in three minutes and successfully cleared the level.
In fact, not only Xia Ruize was surprised by his own results, but the organizers and audience were also surprised.
In their opinion, this contestant looked too gentle and harmless. Apart from a little grumpy temper, he did not show much strength, but he passed the level quickly.
Such a weak, white-faced niche, they were afraid that he was happy to pass the first level successfully. They really wanted to see the scene of him being torn to pieces by the mutant creature in the terrifying second level. Thinking about it made people excited.
In fact, when Xia Ruize successfully found the letter in the clothes, the director of the organizer noticed this young player who was not visible. He didn't make any big movements, but the progress was progressing too smoothly every time. The random movements just hit the spot.
After wondering for a long time, the director had to attribute Xia Ruize's success to his good luck, and he was always able to bump into the right path indiscriminately.
Therefore, without Xia Ruize's knowledge, he was once again labeled as "lucky", and the screen tracking his performance was adjusted to the position recommended by the organizer to allow more viewers to see his performance.
Although Xia Ruize didn't know that he was seen as a monkey, he could easily guess that someone who worked so hard to design such a game would definitely be happy to watch the little poor performance trapped in it, otherwise, wouldn't it be no fun?
The gloomy voice that appeared in time also confirmed Xia Ruize's guess that there were indeed people who were paying attention to him all the time. Therefore, he was not prepared to expose all his abilities easily. Of course, the more cards he had, the better.
After the door of the first room was opened, there was a smaller room outside. What caught the eye was that various weapons and equipment were hung on the wall of this room.
In the middle of the room, there was a box wrapped in silk ribbon, which was probably the so-called "gift."
Xia Ruize carefully opened the box and contained a booklet. The name of the booklet was "Analysis of Rogge's Mutant Creatures." A brief introduction to the Roger Civilization.
Realizing that this was an important channel to understand the world background of this mission, Xia Ruize immediately looked through it seriously. Not to mention, he suspected that the mutant creature introduced in it was likely to appear in the next level. It was always good to know more about important information about his own life.
After reading it again and again, most of the contents of the pamphlet were in his mind. In addition to having a superficial understanding of Rogge's civilization, Xia Ruize also had a general understanding of the surrounding weapons and equipment.
To put it simply, the Rogge civilization was about a hundred years more advanced than the Blue Star civilization where Xia Ruize was in reality in terms of technology, especially weapons, but in terms of social culture and other aspects, it was backwards a hundred years.
The weapons in this room were highly targeted weapons developed by Rogue Star humans in their long-term confrontation with mutant creatures. Of course, they were all the most common versions.
Based on his own understanding and the simple tips provided by the Lord God, Xia Ruize finally chose a full-body protective armor, a laser gun, a high-energy vibration sword, a beam bow, and three magnetic jamming shells.
The full-body protective armor was a set of full-body armor that only had a connecting gap at the neck. The part that protects the body could provide exoskeleton support for the user, and could provide strength, speed and other bonuses on the user's original basis. In critical moments, the user could turn on the protective shield of the armor to resist damage.
Wearing a complete set of armor and buckling off his protective helmet, Xia Ruize was protected from head to toe, and became a behemoth more than two meters high and one meter wide. He moved his fingers, and the metal fingers of the armor that wrapped his hands were also flexible.
The high-energy vibrating sword was pinned to the waist, the beam was arched behind him, and the magnetic interference bomb was loaded into the armor storage space. Finally, the laser gun, which was more than one meter long, was lifted. Xia Ruize waited for the second level to begin.
Xia Ruize was just getting ready, and the eerie and weird voice sounded in the room:
"What a wonderful performance! A total of 89 warriors passed the first level and entered the second level-the labyrinth. Remember to pass the labyrinth within three hours, otherwise you will encounter more and more surprises. An extra reminder, the weapons you get are limited in energy, remember to collect energy boxes, hehehehe…"
The routine ended with a giggle, and Xia Ruize heard a lot of malice from it.
Hearing the reminder, he observed his new equipment. Sure enough, whether it was an armor or a laser gun, there was an interface for displaying the remaining energy in a conspicuous position, but he searched the entire small room, except for other weapons of various shapes, he couldn't find a device that could provide energy.
Looking at the door to the second level that had opened on its own, Xia Ruize stepped out as he squeezed the weapon in his hand.
At this time, the organizers were busy editing the images of the players who had failed and died in the first stage into a special broadcast, which would give exciting fun to the bored audience.
The eleven players who failed in the end all died from suffocation. Two of them failed to get out of the belt from start to finish, so that an hour was not up, because the water level in the room was higher than the body.
The other nine got rid of their belts, but were helpless in the face of the various code locks in the room. Seeing their faces gradually frightened as the water in the room increased, they were busy struggling to survive. Because the entire room suffocated and died without any gaps, the audience threw out rewards one after another.
The director watched the ratings rise all the way and reached the first climax since the beginning of the show, and he was naturally satisfied.
Of course, compared to rewards, the real way to get money for the show was to set up various gambling games, such as gambling on which player could go to the end to become the king, which player would die miserably in the second level, etc.,
Of course, Xia Ruize was also the target of betting, and even because of his excellent performance in the first level, the organizer opened a new betting project for him to bet whether he could successfully pass the second level.
The audience of Rogge star was obviously not optimistic about him, looking thin and weak. It seemed that he didn't know how to use weapons. He was also very unskilled when wearing protective armor. Xia Ruize, who was likely to be a brain worker before coming to the Battle of Kings, when betting, far more spectators bet that he would be defeated in the second level than the spectators who bet that he would pass the level smoothly.
Only Xia Ruize knew that he was indeed a brain worker before, but now?
The passage of the labyrinth was only two meters wide, which was very narrow for Xia Ruize, who was wearing a protective armor one meter wide, and had a small space for action. However, such an environment also allowed him to explore the surrounding situation, for example, was the other passage separated by a wall?
After walking through an empty and narrow passage of tens of meters, a wide circular transit area connecting the passages in eight directions appeared in front of him. At the same time, there was also an enlarged version of a giant lizard!
The giant lizard, more than two meters high and three meters long, laid quietly in the center of the circular transit area, calmly waiting for the prey to come to the door.
Xia Ruize, who had read the brief introduction, knew that the most terrifying weapon on this giant lizard was actually its tongue, which could shoot out the retracted tongue at super high speed, which was a nightmare for all creatures that enter its hunting range.
After walking lightly to a position close to the entrance of the passage, Xia Ruize did not rush forward, but suppressed it and waited quietly, not because he was afraid of the giant lizard, but because there were other players in the passage next to him. Xia Ruize wanted to see the performance of other players.
After waiting patiently for a few minutes, the contestants in the side channel really couldn't bear it and rushed out first. With the support of the protective armor, they moved very quickly, and seemed to want to rush directly into the opposite channel.
Of course, the giant lizard would not let go of the food it had waited so hard for. Its cold eyes were full of violence and greed, staring at the players who rush out, its huge mouth slightly opened, and its tongue shot out.
Xia Ruize, who was watching this scene with mental power, was a little bit shocked. The giant lizard's tongue attack speed was so fast that not only the naked eye could not capture its movement trajectory, but even the spiritual power could hardly capture it. It seemed that he couldn't get into its attack range and face the tongue, it was best to kill it from a distance.
Fortunately, the player who was stared at by the giant lizard was prepared in advance. While running forward, the laser gun in his hand pressed the trigger backward, and a group of blue-violet electric ball shot out, directly facing the oncoming tongue. It exploded completely close to the players.
The giant lizard's most powerful attack weapon was damaged, and while quickly retracting the remaining half of its tongue, it rushed towards the contestant angrily, and the contestant who was deflected by the aftermath of the explosion hurriedly adjusted his body shape to deal with the monster.
Not knowing that the player attacked the giant lizard's tongue purely by luck, Xia Ruize, who thought that the opponent could really capture the tongue movement, was shocked. He had a higher evaluation of the combat effectiveness of the natives in the mission world, and silently decided to continue watching.
However, Xia Ruize soon discovered that he was wrong.
The contestant who was chased by the giant lizard stood still and didn't even look at the monster it was chasing. He buried his head and fled into another channel, and took advantage of the gap in which he attracted the attention of the giant lizard, and jumped out from the other channel next to him. A contestant seized the time to change a channel and quickly disappeared.
Xia Ruize: ? ? ?
It turned out that this test was not to find a way to solve the "surprise" that was blocking the road, but to do everything possible to avoid it?
Xia Ruize, who was ready for a battle with the giant lizard, felt the difficulty of the official task, and he failed to understand the requirements of the task correctly.
Without waiting for Xia Ruize to reflect on the smoothness of the novice's mission, he was a little drifting when it shouldn't be, the scene changed again.
The fleeing contestant dodged the giant lizard that jumped in front of him, and could only fire a shot at the giant lizard. Affected its speed of action, so it failed to launch the third wave of attacks in time, causing the contestants who caught the opportunity to turn around and run away, and the running direction was exactly the channel Xia Ruize was in!
Seeing that he was dragged into the battle, Xia Ruize stopped avoiding at all. He raised his gun and fired a shot at the other front leg of the giant lizard behind the contestant, abolishing the two legs of the lizard, and didn't worry about its pursuit.
But an accident happened. At the same time, the contestant who rushed towards Xia Ruize was shot in the waist, and a violent explosion occurred. Although he was wearing a protective armor, he did not open the protective shield in time. The user fainted by the explosion, fell heavily to the ground, life and death unknown.
Xia Ruize was stunned. If the previous shot hadn't been fired under the action of the bloodline talent bow specialization and precision aiming skills, and the other front leg of the giant lizard had indeed been blown off, he would almost suspect that he had fired the shot that attacked the contestant who rushed over.
Although the talent bow specialization of the dazzling elf blood was called "bow and arrow", its specific function was to improve the accuracy and attack power of using ranged weapons. Laser guns are counted as long-range weapons and were also affected by this talent.
Not to mention the precise targeting skills and the influence of various exercises. If he really aimed at the wrong target, Xia Ruize might be ashamed to die.
The fact was obviously not.
The real situation was that the previous contestant who took the opportunity to change channels did not leave much, but seized the opportunity to attack the contestant who fled under the chase of the giant lizard.
The other party obviously didn't expect a hidden third party like Xia Ruize to attack the giant lizard at the same time.
Suddenly, there was no human movement in the transit area except for the sound of the giant lizard struggling.
After two minutes of silence, there was the sound of people walking in the passage. Xia Ruize "saw" that the sneak attacker who killed the contestant finally shot a shot to end the life of the giant lizard, and then cautiously directed at the passage where Xia Ruize was. Approaching slowly while holding the gun.
Xia Ruize also raised the gun and opened the protective shield. Soon, the two surviving contestants formally faced each other with their guns.
Seeing the tan hair and emerald green eyes in the other party's protective helmet, Xia Ruize's back was cold, and the roots of hair were erected. That was the passive ability of malicious perception to warn wildly, the person on the other side contained great malice towards him.
The two sides faced each other for a while. Seeing that Xia Ruize did not move, the other side saw that the muzzle of the laser gun was directed at Xia Ruize, and the body slowly backed up, reaching out from the protective armor of the fallen contestant and taking out two black boxes from the head of the giant lizard.
After doing all this, the opponent backed out of Xia Ruize's sight, chose another channel to go in, and soon disappeared.
Now, only Xia Ruize was left in the transit area.
Xia Ruize stabilized his emotions. It was known that the three channels should be the entrances when the three contestants came. One channel had been explored and it was likely to be a dead end. The other channel had dangerous elements entering. He chose the safest one from the remaining three channels. The one on the right, bypassing the mess on the ground, he walked in.
