"No, no, no, Nero, don't pull me. Let me kill this guy." Trial Hall No. 20. Nero did not know what to do and pulled Li Huailin. Meanwhile, Li Huailin looked like he wanted to kill Cocolam.
"Captain Li, Captain Li, calm down a little." Nero did not know whether to laugh or cry. "It's just a nickname. There's no need to care about this."
"Hey, you're a handsome blond guy. Of course, you don't care. I have dead fish eyes, okay? Look at my sincere eyes. Which part of me looks like dead fish eyes?" Li Huailin said.
"No, no … It has nothing to do with my nickname. I mean, you don't have to care too much about this." Nero said with a headache. "The main thing now is to complete this trial."
"No, no, no. I think this nickname is much more important than the trial." Li Huailin said immediately, "Look, the trial is just a problem of the mission, but this nickname is a problem of personal insult. Which one is more important?"
"After you said that, I feel that things are a lot more serious …" Nero held his forehead. "But you see, you're not the only one who's hurt. Look at the lady here. She's not angry at all. Can't you just …"
"No, I'm also very angry." Before Nero could finish, the blonde girl interrupted directly.
"Yeah, yeah. It's fine if you guys have a name. What's wrong with our Black A and Black B?" The two black men here immediately said.
"Hey, hey, at least you guys have the nicknames Black A and Black B, okay? I didn't even get a nickname here. "Andrew raised his hand and said.
"…" Nero looked at this group of people and was silent for a few seconds. Just when she did not know what to do, Andrew suddenly spoke.
"Hmph, you have to know that giving you nicknames is a kind of grace." Cocolam said with his hands on his hips. "You guys actually hate this and that."
"Hey, can you please not give me any grace?" Li Huailin said.
"Anyway, can you give me a nickname first?" Andrew raised his hand and said.
Nero, who was next to him, continued to hold his forehead. What are these guys doing?
"Alright, my protest is invalid." On the other side, Coco Ram stomped on the ground and said, "Trial Hall 20 officially begins. Please bear witness, Saint Lofrey."
A white light flashed. It seemed that Saint Ilofrey had already been contacted, so the trial could be considered to have officially begun. Everyone's expressions changed, and they immediately turned serious.
"Yes, yes, yes … It looks pretty decent now." Coco Ram nodded slightly. After all, he could feel that everyone's gaze had changed. "But you still have dead fish eyes."
"Hey hey …" Li Huailin was about to say something, but Cocoam spoke first.
"Alright, I'll now explain the content of this trial. Everyone, listen carefully because I will only say it once. If you don't hear it clearly, I won't repeat it," Cocoam said. "First of all, this is an intermediate difficulty trial, so of course it's not easy. As you can see, the goal of this trial is to test your intelligence and combat ability, so the test this time is … rock, paper, scissors."
"Eh … eh … eh?" Everyone was stunned. Of course, they had heard of rock, paper, scissors, but they did not expect it to be such a simple trial. After thinking for a while, they wondered if it was a trial where two people played rock, paper, scissors, and the winner attacked?
"No, no, no …" When no one spoke, Cocoam continued, "I know what you guys are thinking, but it's definitely not what you think. Listen to the rules carefully. First of all, the reason why this game is called rock, paper, scissors is because the six of you will be divided into three groups at the beginning of the trial, namely the scissors group, the rock group, and the paper group. As for who is assigned to which group, it's random. Of course, in this game, the group you are assigned to is a very important thing, but unfortunately, none of you will know which group you are in. "
"Eh?" Everyone was stunned. They did not know which group they were assigned to.
"Yes, when the game starts, the group you are assigned to will be shown above your head, but the problem is that you can't see it yourself," Cocoam said with a smile.
"In other words … we can see the mark on our opponent's head and know which group he is in, but we don't know which group we are in, right?" Andrew said after thinking for a while.
"Yes, that's it in a nutshell." Cocoam nodded. "After the game starts, all of you will be teleported to any room on any floor of this building. After that, the game will officially begin. Of course, what happens next is the main point, which is to win. The first way to win is to kill the two players in your group. In other words, the rock group will kill the scissors group, the scissors group will kill the paper group, and the paper group will kill the rock group. As long as you can kill the two players in your group, the team will win. Of course, if both members die, the team will lose. If someone in the other team survives, it will be considered a tie. "
At this point, Cocoam paused for a moment, then said, "To help you idiots understand, I'll give you an example. If the rock group kills two people in the scissors group, then the rock group wins. Whether it's one or two people left, both of them will win and get two God's Seals. If the scissors group loses, each of them will lose two God's Seals, and the paper group, which has nothing to do with it, will be considered a tie."
"No, no, no, you don't need to give an example. We all understand," Andrew said.
"Don't interrupt me when I'm talking. What if I forget something important later?" Cocoam immediately said, "In short, it's also possible for two groups to be wiped out at the same time. If that happens, both groups will be considered to have lost, and the remaining group will automatically win."
"Wiped out at the same time?" Nero's eyes lit up slightly.
"Yes, and it's very easy to happen." Cocoam said, "Because there's a killing penalty in this game. If you kill the wrong person, you'll be in trouble. Specifically, if you kill the person in your group, you'll instantly lose the right to compete when you kill him. For example, if you're in the rock group and you kill a person in the paper group, then both of you will lose the right to compete at the same time. Basically, it can be considered as a death. As mentioned before, if both of you die, then the game will end and the statistics will start, so you must be careful. "
"Understood. Because we don't know which group we are in, there's a possibility of killing the wrong person. When that happens, both of us will die …" Andrew nodded.
"Can I ask a question?" Nero suddenly said.
"Sure, it's best to ask questions now. Otherwise, I won't answer any of your questions after the trial starts," Cocoam said with a nod.
"May I ask what happens if I kill my companion?" Nero asked. "After all, it's possible to kill a companion without knowing which group you're in."
"Oh, this … No problem. There won't be any punishment at all, but you can only continue to compete alone," Cocoam said.
"I see." Nero nodded slightly.
"Well, there's one more thing about the prompts," Cocoam said. "In order to prevent all of you from hiding and not fighting at all, ten minutes after the start of the competition, everyone will be notified of the number of players on each floor. There are a total of six floors here. As you can see, you will be notified when the time comes. For example, there are two people on the first floor, no one on the second floor, and so on. After nine minutes, there will be another notification, and then another eight minutes. In short, the prompts will become more and more frequent until it's once every minute. After all, I don't have time to wait that long for you. "
"Oh, right." After saying that, Cocoam suddenly paused and then said, "Note that this is the only prompt after the trial starts."
"The only prompt?" Andrew was slightly taken aback.
"In other words … if someone dies, there won't be a prompt?" Nero asked.
"Yes, if someone dies, neither the name nor the team will be announced, so there are still a few people in the competition. You'll have to figure it out on your own based on the notification. You'll know how to add," Coco Ram said.
"So that's how it is." Everyone nodded.
"Anyway, do you have any other questions?" Cocoam asked.
"Yes!" Li Huailin raised his hand.
"You." Cocoam frowned. "Speak."
"Hey hey, why do I feel a deep malice in your expression?" Li Huailin said.
"It's just an illusion." Cocoam waved his hand. "Anyway, if you have any questions, ask quickly. I'm going to have some tea."
"…" Li Huailin was silent for a moment. "So what's the use of our previous nickname?"
"…" Everyone looked at Li Huailin, not knowing what to say. So this was what he wanted to ask.
"I've already said that it's convenient to call each other," Cocoam said.
"May I ask … which part of the trial requires you to call each other?" Li Huailin asked.
"Alright, since there are no more questions, let the trial begin." Cocoam suddenly waved his hand.
"Hey!" Before Li Huailin could finish speaking, Cocoam waved his hand, and six rays of white light flashed. Everyone disappeared from where they stood.
