First Dungeon Chamber.

Chen Ran and Han Fei cleared the Instance. The Clown waved his Magic Wand, and the two each obtained a Little Red Flower.

Just when everyone thought the Clown would spin the turntable again, they only saw him "Cluck cluck cluck" laughing non-stop all along. Everyone was sowhat speechless. They didn't understand why [Villains] all liked to engage in so unnecessary [performance art].

Did he think acting pretentious and hyping up the atmosphere a bit could affect them?

Stop joking. Of the players present, even the lowest ones were at the peak of the Ego ntal State. It could be said they were impervious to persuasion, their hearts like solid rock. How could it be possible to be affected by this kind of low-level bad taste?

Seeing everyone's speechless expressions, the Clown licked his lips, excitedly saying: "Do you know, the stronger you are, the happier Mother is, I'm happy for Mother!"

[Idiotic lines!]

Everyone slandered in their hearts, however in their hearts they faintly had so guesses towards the Instance Boss:

Might be a King Bomb!

Very quickly.

The Clown finished laughing and started turning the turntable.

This ti the number was: Number 20.

But, what was strange was, the turntable didn't turn again, the numbers on everyone's chairs also didn't undergo changes, and even Yue Guanshan didn't lose consciousness. The Clown had no nonsense words; taking down the plate that only had one pointer, he swapped on a plate with ten pointers.

Turning the turntable again, the Clown even loudly shouted in his mouth: "Starting the train!"

Chen Ran: "..."

[Fck, this isn't a slot machine, it can even fcking start a train?]

[However there are ten pointers. Counting Yue Guanshan as well, this ti there are...]

[11 people taking the field.]

[With so many people taking the field, it shouldn't be the previous hell layers gaplay anymore.]

[This very likely is the Orphanage.]

[The gas played by little kids, are only those few kinds. The ones needing this many people include:]

[Dodgeball, playing house, eagle catches the chicks, drop the handkerchief...]

[In the first three [Gas], no one lost Little Red Flowers. In this ti's [Ga], if it wants to let players lose Little Red Flowers...]

[Besides playing house, the remaining three can all be losing Little Red Flowers upon elimination.]

[It also has to involve puzzle-solving, so with high probability it's dodgeball, or drop the handkerchief.]

Not only Chen Ran, everyone was also deducing the next [Ga].

Not long after, the turntable stopped.

The result made people drop their glasses, simply because the ten pointers pointed to...

Numbers 1-10!

Among these ten numbers, there were Lin Xuan, Qiu Yinong, Jiang Zhe, Han Fei and others.

Chen Ran's four [teammates], were completely included within it. Moreover the opponent they faced was still Yue Guanshan. Once their amount of Little Red Flowers appeared to decrease...

"I have a question, will your skill's effect, Jiang Zhe..."

Before the words were even finished, he saw Jiang Zhe with an appearance of deep bitterness and enmity.

[It seems, his nine lives, cannot withstand the Instance's obliteration chanism.]

[This is very easy to understand.]

[Obliteration is a kind of special chanism; the Priority is definitely higher than skill effects.]

[Therefore, Jiang Zhe's nine lives, will be wiped out completely all at once.]

[But, if it's being shot dead by a gun, or triggering an Instance trap, it won't be like this.]

Looking from the present.

Qiu Yinong, Lin Xuan, Han Fei, the three people all had four Little Red Flowers. Even if they were scamd by Yue Guanshan in the ga, thereby failing the ga, it would rely be missing one Little Red Flower, remaining tied with the other players. But Jiang Zhe was different. He only had three. If he failed the puzzle-solving by any chance...

He would then be at the bottom!

...

Jiang Zhe cast a glance at the remaining six people, only seeing those six people all intentionally or unintentionally looking towards him.

The situation was already very clear.

These six people, just like Jiang Zhe, all only had three Little Red Flowers. Although they had mbers coming from Chen Nuo and Nan Sheng's teams, under this kind of situation, they definitely would prioritize sniping Jiang Zhe, ensuring they themselves wouldn't be eliminated. After all, Chen Ran's [teammates] only numbered four people.

Here there might be a doubt: why wouldn't the ten people focus fire to snipe Yue Guanshan first?

The answer is: Yue Guanshan's chest already had four Little Red Flowers. Even if he failed, he would only be tied with the others.

"Wishing you all a happy playti." The Clown waved his Magic Wand, and the eleven people lost consciousness.

...

Chu Yinian's vision went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he discovered he was precisely situated in a circular space in all four directions: ten doors surrounded him in a ring shape.

In the middle of the space was a high platform about the size of a table. Placed on the high platform were...

A Key, text rules, as well as eleven Liar-Slayers.

[Rule 1: Drop the Handkerchief ga, this skeleton key is regarded as the handkerchief.]

[Rule 2: If there is no touch, the victor obtains one Little Red Flower from the loser; the loser loses one Little Red Flower.]

[Rule 3: If in this space one is touched by the person holding the [handkerchief], it ans defeat, losing one Little Red Flower, and furthermore will also be teleported out; the victor obtains one Little Red Flower to continue the ga.]

[Rule 4: When only one person remains, the ga is cleared.]

Chu Yinian retracted his gaze.

[Looking according to the rules, this ga complies with the [Drop the Handkerchief] ga.]

[That is to say, the Key is precisely the handkerchief.]

[When I insert the Key into the keyhole of a door, it's equivalent to dropping the handkerchief, naly I am unable to pull the Key back out.]

[But, the person inside the door, can however pull the Key out and chase .]

Deducing up to here, he looked around left and right.

[Here there are only ten doors, and every door has the number of our seat.]

[Simply put, assuming I opened Jiang Zhe's door, and Jiang Zhe cos out to chase , I have to run into Jiang Zhe's room for it to work.]

[But the problem is, Jiang Zhe also isn't stupid. He can directly choose to block the door, wouldn't I be unable to enter forever?]

[This obviously doesn't conform to the Decryption Protocol. Therefore in the process of chasing, we might participate in puzzle-solving.]

He looked towards Rule 3:

[Rule 3: If in this space one is touched by the person holding the [handkerchief], it ans defeat, losing one Little Red Flower, and furthermore will also be teleported out; the victor obtains one Little Red Flower to continue the ga.]

[Keyword: In this space.]

[In other words, in the process of our chasing, we will be teleported to other spaces to conduct puzzle-solving. Whoever finishes puzzle-solving first, can then return to this space to act first.]

[For example, if I finish puzzle-solving first, then when Jiang Zhe is still in the puzzle-solving space, I can then leisurely walk into his room.]

[By the sa logic, if he finishes puzzle-solving first, he can then leisurely co to touch .]

Deducing up to here, he glanced at the eleven Liar-Slayers on the high platform, reaching out his hand to touch them.

It clipped through.

[It seems, the Liar-Slayers were placed in other spaces. This kind of design, is telling us, no fakes exist.]

[It's estimated, the puzzle-solving born in the chasing process, will return the Liar-Slayers.]

[Actually none of this is important!]

[What's important is...]

[Only under two situations will one be teleported out: one is being touched by the person holding the [handkerchief], two is when only one person remains.]

[That is to say, it is best to first plunder one Little Red Flower before being teleported out, to be able to ensure the safety of one's own flower count.]

[Strange, why did Lin Xuan's silhouette flash past in my mind.]

[Should I plunder his Little Red Flower?]

[No.]

[Keeping the weak ones, eliminating the strong ones, this is exactly the most correct way of doing things.]

[Very obviously, Jiang Zhe's skill possesses a higher strategic value.]

Finalizing the target.

Next, Chu Yinian had to ponder what he should do, to be able to let Jiang Zhe be eliminated.

[Must definitely leave Jiang Zhe and Yue Guanshan at the very end. The two of them making the final showdown, Jiang Zhe will undoubtedly lose. Then the amount of his Little Red Flowers will beco [2].]

[I will go open Lin Xuan's door first. If I win, I have four, he has three.]

[How will he choose?]

[If he chooses to open Jiang Zhe's door, and Jiang Zhe intentionally lets him touch him to win?]

[Jiang Zhe will still have two left.]

[Jiang Zhe lets him touch him to win?]

[Jiang Zhe will still have two left.]

[By the sa logic, if Jiang Zhe wins, Lin Xuan's amount of Little Red Flowers, will also be two.]

[That is to say, no matter what situation the result is, both people's flower counts will be very dangerous.]

[Unless...]

[Han Fei, Lin Xuan, Qiu Yinong, one of these three people takes the lead to achieve five flowers.]

[Giving Jiang Zhe one flower, then letting Jiang Zhe intentionally fail, to be teleported out.]

[I know what to do!]

[Heh heh, Chen Ran didn't take the field. With just the four of them, wanting to achieve five Little Red Flowers?]

[Idiotic nonsense!]
