Everyone in the room was sharp-minded, so there was no need for small talk; they were all ready to dive into the ga.
This ti, however, all the questions and challenges were set and paired on a big spinning wheel.
The wheel was divided into 36 segnts of different sizes, with each one holding a unique question or dare, but at the start, each segnt was covered by a board, hiding what lay beneath. In the center of the wheel was a pointer. The ga involved participants spinning both the wheel and the pointer at the sa ti to find out who the "lucky one" would be and which segnt they would land on.
The ga began with the ssenger.
With gloved hands, the ssenger casually reached out, spinning the wheel with their left hand and the pointer with their right, as if it required little effort.
The wheel spun twice before finally coming to a stop.
After the pointer completed four rotations, it landed on Avery.
Avery had beco the "lucky one," and the segnt it pointed to would determine whether she had to face a "truth" or a "dare."
Then the ssenger asked, "Truth or dare?"
With a smile, Avery replied, "Truth."
An attendant quickly moved in and tapped the "truth" option.
The wheel chid a sweet, lodic sound, asking, "What is your IQ?"
Avery took a mont to think before responding, "The last IQ test I took was in high school, and I scored a 199, but I gave up on taking them after that and haven’t done another since."
"199?" The air buzzed with murmurs as the highly intelligent crowd stirred, openly discussing her claim. "Is that really possible? How accurate are these IQ tests?"
"Co on, it can’t be real! A 199 in high school? I bet the test was flawed," soone chid in.
Even the ssenger raised an eyebrow at her answer.
Avery brushed off the doubts surrounding her IQ, simply smiling and saying, "I’ve answered the question."
The wheel seed to have a mind of its own, producing a voice that said, "I believe she is telling the truth." Avery passed this round.
Since she had ranked first in the previous ga, she was seated to the left of the ssenger.
After the ssenger’s turn, it was now her ti to spin.
With a casual flick of her wrist, she spun both the wheel and the pointer, and this ti, it landed on the ssenger again.
Even more surprising, the segnt it pointed to was the sa one that had just been directed at Avery.
A whispering buzz filled the air as everyone exchanged glances.
Being as sharp as they were, no one was inclined to believe this was re coincidence; they murmured things like, "What incredible skill!" and "Is the wheel and pointer that easy to control?" In reality, the wheel and pointer were not easy to handle at all.
It could only be said that the dexterity of both the ssenger and Avery was exceptional, far beyond what anyone could expect.
Without needing the attendant’s help, the ssenger pressed the "truth" option. The wheel, apparently without any tricks, posed the sa question: "What is your IQ?"
The ssenger replied without hesitation, "I took my latest test two years ago, and my score was 201. I work hard, but I haven’t pushed myself to the limit."
Once again, the crowd erupted into a frenzy of chatter.
"Over 200? That’s just absurd! Those tests must not be reliable!"
"I can believe soone has a score of 199 or even 201, but how is it possible to encounter two people with those scores at once?"
"This is the highest IQ I’ve ever seen..."
This ti, Avery regarded the ssenger with a longer look. She realized that this ssenger was truly sothing special.
Without a trace of arrogance, the ssenger simply said, "Next."
As the ga continued, everyone was faced with a series of "truth" or "dare" challenges.
Most of the "truths" centered around intelligence, and many of the questions and dares began to repeat themselves.
Among these, the question "What is your IQ?" ca up the most often, alongside others like, "Who is the smartest person you’ve ever t, and what makes them stand out?"
When Avery was chosen for the second ti, she opted for "truth" again, and the wheel asked, "Who is the smartest person you’ve ever t?"
Without missing a beat, she answered, "My ntor."
The room fell silent as all eyes turned toward her.
With her IQ already sitting at a staggering 199, everyone couldn’t help but wonder just how brilliant her ntor must be. Unfortunately, the rules allowed for only one question at a ti, leaving the crowd’s curiosity hanging.
After three more rounds, Avery found herself in the spotlight again.
She once again chose "truth," and the wheel inquired, "What is your ntor like?"
After a brief pause, Avery responded with sincerity, "Soone who is almost god-like."
Instantly, the playful chatter among the participants faded, and they stared at her with a mix of confusion and intrigue.
"People say that the end of science is theology. Could it be that this girl with an IQ of 199 is nearing the pinnacle of science?"
"I get it now; this genius is so incredibly smart, it’s almost unsettling..."
Even the ssenger looked at Avery with newfound interest.
Avery simply smiled, appearing completely unbothered by the need for anyone’s approval or understanding, and waved her hand dismissively. "Pass."
Alexander had also been selected twice.
The first ti, he was picked by the ssenger, and, like Avery, he chose "truth." His question was the sa: "What is your IQ?"
Alexander replied, "The last ti I took an IQ test was in college, and I scored 185. Honestly, I think those tests are pointless, so I haven’t taken one since."
When Alexander was selected for the second ti, he went for "dare," and the challenge was to "reveal your face in public."
That request left everyone montarily speechless.
What a bold dare.
Alexander chose to decline, which resulted in a punishnt determined by the wheel.
The punishnt was surprisingly hefty: "Produce 2 million dollars in cash or equivalent items to compensate any ga participant willing to take your dare."
The less wealthy participants frowned at the steep demand, but Alexander didn’t hesitate. He took off his luxury watch and placed it on the table.
"It’s a limited edition Patek Philippe, worth at least 2 million dollars."
A wave of astonishnt washed over the room as most people looked at him in awe.
After examining the watch, the ssenger confird, "Its market value is indeed over 2 million dollars. Is there anyone willing to step up for him?"
Not everyone could afford to be as high-profile as the ssenger, Avery, or Alexander and comfortably reveal their faces. A few people raised their hands almost imdiately.
In the end, Alexander casually pointed to soone, who stepped up to show their identity and took the Patek Philippe.
Having witnessed Alexander’s experience, most participants now hesitated to choose "dare."
As the ga entered the sixth round, Avery was selected once more.
She realized that her exceptional talent had caught the ssenger’s attention, and she suspected he might be subtly cheating to gauge her abilities.
However, she didn’t care.
While others were probing her limits, she was equally curious about theirs.
Not feeling any sense of danger, she again opted for "truth."
The wheel chid a cheerful sound and asked, "What is your ntor’s na?"
