It will be ready soon.]
Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed the end of December. If this was before the advent of the new world, everyone would be busy preparing for the New Year. However —
"Oh no, the fog is too thick. The contestants can't see each other … Let's blow!"
After the person with the loud voice grumbled, he started to blow into the fog. Surprisingly, the white fog that covered the sky started to shake and dissipate, revealing the natural color of the world.
"No, that's not right. This is definitely not the natural color of the world …" Lin Sanjiu stared at the ground with her eyes wide open.
There was a large circle under her feet. It was divided into two halves by a line in the middle. One side was painted red, and the other side was painted white.
Not far from her, there were four unfamiliar men and women. Including Lin Sanjiu and B.Rabbit, there were a total of six people standing in the red half. The other half was about 50 meters away from them. There were also six people standing there. Lin Sanjiu recognized two of them. One of them wore a pair of spectacles and always looked serious. The other was so large that it made people want to avoid him. He pushed the other five people to the side. They were Hu Changzai and Hai Tianqing.
The three people and one rabbit looked at each other in astonishment. They didn't know how to react. Hu Changzai looked at the ground for a while and became anxious. He opened and closed his mouth and gestured with his hands. After a long time, he couldn't make a sound. It felt as if there was something blocking his voice.
Lin Sanjiu only reacted when she heard the loud voice again. She quickly turned her head to look for the source of the voice.
It was strange. The wind was blowing from that direction and had dispersed the white fog around them. However, the person who spoke was still hidden in the thick fog. Lin Sanjiu couldn't see his face clearly.
"I am Mister Dot, the host of the Instance Dungeon. It is my honor to meet all of you … Do you see your teammates? Those who share the same color as you are your teammates. Those who are opposite you are your opponents! Come, let's get to know each other before we start our red and white match! "
The moment "Mister Dot" finished speaking, one of the men beside Lin Sanjiu immediately shouted, "Hey, are you crazy? What time is it now, and you still want to have a match … I don't have time to play with you! "
The man looked like he was in his early twenties. The hair on both sides of his head was shaved short, and he seemed to have an irritable temper. He shouted, "Do you still want to stay?" Seeing that no one dared to say anything, he turned around and left. Soon, his figure disappeared into the white fog.
Mr. Dot did not seem to mind the man's sudden departure. He remained silent as if waiting for everyone to get to know each other.
Because of the man, the remaining five members of the red team did not say a word. They only stared in the direction where the man had left until they could no longer see him. Only then did a faint commotion begin.
Aside from Lin Sanjiu and B.Rabbit, one of the remaining three members of the red team was obviously a couple. At this moment, the petite girl with neat bangs was nervously clutching the corner of her boyfriend's shirt. Her boyfriend was not tall, had fair skin, and was slightly plump. He looked like a piece of milk jelly with a shirt on. He was comforting the girl in a low voice. His voice sounded very gentle.
The other person standing alone was a middle-aged man with large pores and a gloomy face. The hot rain continued to pour from the sky. Everyone was soaked to the skin. Their clothes stuck to their bodies so tightly that they became translucent. His bulging belly was clearly visible under his wet shirt. His eyes kept lingering on the women in the field. It was as if he had cultivated this habit for a lifetime, and he would carry it with him even if the end of the world came.
Lin Sanjiu was wearing a tight black singlet and a pair of loose combat pants, so naturally, nothing could be seen. The poor girl in the linen skirt hid behind her boyfriend with an uncomfortable expression.
When the middle-aged man glanced at the direction of the White Team for the fourth time, a woman wearing a miniskirt and a pair of long legs couldn't hold it in any longer. She dashed towards the direction of the Red Team. However, just as she was about to step on the line, she suddenly braked abruptly and stopped outside the line. After that, she glared at her big belly with her long legs, pursed her lips into a thin line, and turned back to the White Team.
"It seems like we can't cross the line here and we can't hear each other's voices." Lin Sanjiu and Hu Changzai looked at each other.
Lin Sanjiu looked at the white team and shook her head at Hu Changzai. She wasn't sure if he understood what she meant or not.
"Huh?"
Just then, a voice came from behind the white team and attracted everyone's attention. Lin Sanjiu turned around and saw the short-tempered man standing behind the five of them with a puzzled expression.
Lin Sanjiu wasn't surprised at all.
"I must have gone the wrong way," the short-tempered man muttered. He turned around and walked away unwillingly.
"Don't waste your time," Lin Sanjiu couldn't stand it anymore and called out to him. "If it's a pocket dimension, you can't leave before you complete it."
The members of the red team were stunned when they heard that.
Just as Lin Sanjiu expected, the people present had just survived the high temperature and had never heard of a pocket dimension. Even B.Rabbit didn't know about it, let alone them.
The "pocket dimension" sounded a little ridiculous, so even after Lin Sanjiu gave a brief introduction, everyone was still skeptical. On the contrary, when B.Rabbit spoke, most of them seemed to be shocked.
But no matter what, no matter how doubtful they were, they still stayed behind in the end while muttering to themselves.
About five minutes later, a few clapping sounds came from Mr. Dot's direction, interrupting the conversation between the red and white teams.
"I'm happy to see that everyone is having a good time with your teammates," Mr. Dot said with a smile. Mr. Dot laughed, his tone relaxed. However, what he said next made the members of the Red Team unable to relax. "However, one of the members of the Red Team did not follow my suggestion. Instead, he tried to leave without permission. So, before the game starts, I have to deduct one point from the red team … "
As he spoke, a "-1" floated up into the air on the red side of the border, glowing faintly in the air.
Even though they didn't know what effect the -1 would have, the members of the red team had a bad feeling.
"Points are deducted for not following the suggestion?"
Lin Sanjiu thought uneasily. However, the five of them didn't talk to each other just now … Lin Sanjiu didn't even know the names of the other members. She could only give them nicknames in her mind.
"Could this be considered a form of" recognition "?"
Just as she was thinking, Mr. Dot spoke again, "Fortunately, a member of the red team shared some basic knowledge about the pocket dimension with his teammates. So, the red team can get a treasure chest!"
There was an uproar in the red team.
Even though they didn't know what a treasure chest was, it sounded like something good. If that was the case, the gap between the red and white teams wouldn't be so wide. Just when the red team members felt better, Mr. Dot continued, "For the same reason, the white team can also get a treasure chest!"
"Everyone might be curious about the use of a treasure chest, right? Now, let me explain the rules of this match! "
[Year-end Welcoming Red and White Match]
Number of participants: 6 members each for the red and white teams, a total of 12 people.
Rules of the match: 1. Mr. Dot will assign 4 games. The red and white teams don't need to have all their members participate. As long as the total number of people in the game reaches the minimum number of people, and the number of participants in both teams is equal.
2. There is no limit to the number of times a team member can participate in a game, but each team member can participate at least twice. Otherwise, they will be punished with death.
3. The members of each team must vote for each round of the game. Only those with a majority of votes can participate in the game.
4. There may be scoring points in some games. If a team member can successfully discover and obtain the scoring point, that team will get + 1 point. Winning a round will get + 1 point. The team that wins the most points will be the winner.
5. Similarly, there may be points lost in the game.
6. Under special circumstances, there will be additional rewards of "treasure chests". After opening the treasure chest, there are all sorts of results, ranging from + 10 points, to -10 points.
7. Before each round of the game, the members of the red and white teams who don't participate in the game must take out something of their own as a "prize". This prize can be a special item, or it can be one of their advanced abilities. After the prize is given out, if the team loses, the prize of that team will belong to the opponent. For example, if the A team in the red team doesn't participate, he will hand over his "Fart When Farting" skill. However, the contestant in the red team fails, then the "Fart When Farting" skill will belong to someone in the white team. If all the members of the team participate, the prize will be randomly selected by Mr. Dot.
8. Among the victorious teams, who would be entitled to the prize would depend on the results of the discussion among the entire team. If the discussion is in a deadlock, Mr. Dot will make a judgment based on the contribution of each member. The person who contributed the most will get the prize.
9. The losing team will not only have to return all the prizes, but even their advanced abilities and special items will be taken away. The final prize will be given to the winning team. In addition, each member of the winning team can request a special reward from Mr. Dot.
10. After the winner is decided, the dungeon will be dismissed.
After listening to the long ten rules, everyone was silent for a long time.
From the moment they heard Mr. Dot's voice until now, they finally accepted the situation.
"There's something bad in the treasure chest? How can it be called a treasure chest?! "The hot-tempered person scolded.
"Compared to this, I'm more worried about the prize …" The fair-skinned person said worriedly, "Although we don't know what the game is about, if the opponent gets an extra ability, it'll be too disadvantageous for us."
When the fair-skinned person heard that, his face turned pale. When he spoke, his voice was nasally, "I … I only have one ability. I really can't hand it over. Without my ability, I might die very soon …"
Seeing that his girlfriend was anxious, the fair-skinned person quickly held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, no one will force you …"
Even though the big-bellied guy didn't say anything, he finally shifted his gaze away from his girlfriend. He lowered his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something.
Lin Sanjiu and B.Rabbit looked at each other with a solemn expression.
Just by looking at the ten rules, they already had a feeling that they were full of traps. Although they couldn't explain why, they just felt that it was full of traps.
Furthermore, the situation that B.Rabbit and Lin Sanjiu were facing was almost impossible. Not only did they have to win, but they also couldn't let Hu Changzai and his partner lose.
"That's all for the rules. Now, let's invite the members who contributed to the dungeon to draw the prize!"
Naturally, Lin Sanjiu was in the red team. She paused for a moment and looked at the white team. The person in the white team who came out to draw the prize was probably a formidable opponent. Since that person knew about the situation in the pocket dimension, he probably came from another world. Whether it was experience or ability, he probably wasn't easy to deal with.
Lin Sanjiu shifted her gaze and saw a skinny woman walking out from the white team.
At first glance, Lin Sanjiu thought that the woman was an old lady. However, after a closer look, Lin Sanjiu realized that the woman was only in her forties or fifties. The wrinkles on her face and her triangular eyes drooped weakly made her look especially old and mean.
The haggard old woman glanced at Lin Sanjiu. Then, she turned away expressionlessly and walked straight into the fog.
Lin Sanjiu finally snapped out of her daze. She quickly put B.Rabbit down from her shoulder and walked into the fog.
The moment the white fog enveloped her body, she saw a black wooden box lying not far away from her. It wasn't even locked. She could open it with just a stretch of her hand. When she turned around, she couldn't see her teammates anymore.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Sanjiu closed her eyes and opened the lid of the box.
