Ni Lan pulled out her bow and shot an arrow. The arrow instantly turned into seventy or eighty rays of scattered light. The scattered light refracted continuously, and gradually, the sealed area was revealed.
The area was about eight meters in length, eight meters in width, and three meters in height. It was quite a large space, but the grass on the ground in this space had almost completely faded from green to yellow. It looked lifeless.
Moreover, the air was becoming thinner. This could be felt from everyone's breathing. The oxygen here was not all breathed in by Su Bai and the other two. Instead, it was extracted. Everything in this space was constantly being sucked dry.
Su Bai placed his hands on the invisible glass in front of him. At this time, he was not very nervous. It was probably because he was mentally prepared. However, survival was also a belief and an instinct. No matter what, Su Bai would not sit still and wait for death. This was not his style.
"This shouldn't be an unsolvable situation." Xu Dong began to use his hands to feel the glass like Su Bai. He had already tried to hack at it with his saber, but it did not leave a single mark. It was enough to show the sturdiness of this barrier.
Ni Lan sat cross-legged and closed her eyes, as if she was recuperating. She was lowering her metabolism so that she could gradually adapt to the deteriorating environment and increase her theoretical survival time.
At this time, there was no need to worry about fighting over oxygen. Because the three of them were very strong, fighting in this narrow space would only worsen the already poor sealed environment to the extreme. It was possible that the two of them would suffocate to death before the outcome of the battle could be decided.
Ni Lan's method was a little passive, but it had to be said that it was very effective. After all, people like Su Bai could also stay underwater for a long time. The oxygen carrying capacity of every cell in his body had also become stronger because of the increase in his life level. Even if it really became a vacuum, Su Bai could still last more than ten minutes without oxygen. However, the current situation was not only like that. The vitality here was also constantly being sucked away. This was the crux of the problem.
Oxygen was not the only factor that determined survival.
"How long do we have in theory?" Xu Dong looked at Su Bai.
"Six minutes." Su Bai said, "After six minutes, we will both die." As he spoke, Su Bai glanced at Ni Lan, who was sitting cross-legged. "She might last a minute and a half longer than us."
"Hehe, she's thinking that if one of us dies, the Terror Broadcast will withdraw."
Xu Dong directly pointed out Ni Lan's thoughts. Indeed, it was rare for a terrorist broadcast to result in the death of a whole team. If they could not find a way to solve the problem now, the situation might change after one or two people died in the team.
If this situation had been created by other opponents, whether it was Su Bai, Xu Dong, or Ni Lan, they might not have been so negative. However, the one who created this situation was a terrorist broadcast. This in itself explained a lot of problems, and you could only go along with it.
Breathing became more and more difficult. Su Bai realized that his skin was losing its smoothness and was becoming rough and wrinkled. His vitality was also being sucked away.
Xu Dong gritted his teeth. He could also feel the vitality in his body being continuously sucked away. Vitality was something that could not be touched or seen, but it was something that existed. Xu Dong leaned on his sword and stood there motionlessly.
Ni Lan had been in that position for a long time.
Su Bai sat down, but he did not sit cross-legged like Ni Lan to adjust his body. He did not think that just meekly accepting adversity could save his life, but there was really nothing he could do now.
"Will it use this method to trap us here until we die?" Su Bai suddenly asked. It sounded like he was asking himself, but it also sounded like he was asking someone else.
Ni Lan did not answer. Her heartbeat was almost inaudible. She had already turned herself into a living dead state, trying to make herself last as long as possible in this absolutely terrible condition.
Xu Dong shook his head. "It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be like this. If it wants us to die like this, then didn't the previous judges just take off their pants to fart?"
"What if it really took off their pants to fart?" Su Bai said, "Perhaps, the remaining six shadows are actually six experiencers. They're just here for sightseeing, and they don't really have to get involved in the story."
Xu Dong frowned, thinking about what Su Bai had said. To be honest, he felt that Su Bai was right. If the six shadows were not even listeners and were just experiencers, then they would not have been able to do so.
Then …
This was really very likely to be the ending that the horror broadcast wanted to do.
"Previously, he helped Ni Lan and me make up for the lack of state of mind just to make us happy and give us a meal before we die?"
"Then, let's stop this train of thought first and change it?" Su Bai's gaze once again turned to the six figures behind the glass mirror on the tall building. "Using a cage to trap us to death, starve us to death, and force us to death doesn't seem to be the style of the broadcast. "If the six people behind the glass mirror aren't here for fun, but to show their faces, what will happen if we follow this train of thought?"
Su Bai lowered his head silently. Actually, he was not asking Xu Dong or Ni Lan, who had completely blocked her six senses, but he was asking himself. To play with the horror broadcast, one had to be familiar with the style of the broadcast. For example, if the broadcast suddenly sent you to a desert and needed you to do some mission, you really didn't have to worry too much about dying of thirst in the desert. This was because letting you die of thirst in the desert for no reason did not conform to the broadcast's principle of supremacy. It was very likely that when you couldn't walk and were really thirsty, your feet would suddenly turn into quicksand.
After you fall into the trap, you will find that you have entered a dark hole, and the plot will continue to move forward. You may die at the hands of the monsters in the dark hole. This is very likely, but it is unlikely that you will be roasted into a dried corpse in the desert after entering the story world.
"If the six people behind the glass mirror still need to appear, then logically speaking, we won't die in this container." Xu Dong punched the invisible barrier in front of him, making a muffled sound.
This sound even alarmed Ni Lan, pulling her back from her previous state of suspended animation. This was because Ni Lan was very worried that Xu Dong would really fight to the death in the end.
I can't hold on any longer. I won't let you live for a minute and a half longer than me. I won't let you see a turning point after my death. At most, I'll vent my energy and violently shake the interior of this container, speeding up the evaporation of the substances inside. If I die, I die together.
To be honest …
This kind of thinking was something that any normal person would have when they encountered such a situation. If I'm going to die, why can you live?
Xu Dong shrugged. "Continue being a mummy. I'm really not interested in dragging people down at this time."
Ni Lan continued to close her eyes. She and Su Bai and Xu Dong had chosen completely different attitudes to deal with the situation. Su Bai and Xu Dong were obviously still looking for a way to break out of the situation, while she was waiting for an opportunity to break out of the situation.
"If the next wave of judges still needs to appear, we won't die …" Su Bai stopped talking to himself. Instead, he subconsciously began to think in his heart.
We won't die, but our life force is constantly being sucked away. If this continues, in just three minutes, this body will be considered crippled …
Suddenly …
Su Bai seemed to have grasped something. He thought of a possibility, and this possibility was very likely to be correct.
He continued to maintain his original posture, and his lips were even moving slightly. Su Bai was no different from before, but under the shadow of a big tree outside the container, an even darker black shadow slowly appeared. This was Su Bai's experiment. It was the vampire shadow tied to the cross that he could summon.
That's right …
The terrifying broadcast wanted to take the initiative to cripple our physical bodies, so that we would lose our physical bodies and only have our souls left to face the next wave of three judges. It wanted to reduce the difficulty of the next round of judges. It would no longer be like the first round, where we would be sent straight to the grave.
This container could isolate any other form of energy, but it would not isolate the soul.
When their life force was sucked out, the three people's bodies would directly die. In the entire container, only their souls would be left alone. After that, the container would be opened again, and the new three judges would appear at that time.
This …
Was the plan of the broadcast.
It was weakening the strength of the three sinners step by step. Step by step, it was creating an advantage and opportunity for the seemingly unpresentable judges.
Without any warning,
Su Bai's body began to burn. He was actively burning, similar to a method of self-destruction.
Ni Lan opened her eyes once again and looked at Su Bai with a hint of anger. She naturally thought that Su Bai was planning to die together with them.
Xu Dong also looked at Su Bai with a hint of astonishment. At the same time, he tightened his grip on the long saber in his hand.
He burned his own body, incinerated his own body, and tried his best to transfer all his physical strength to his soul, stimulating the strengthening of his soul.
Su Bai's soul floated out of his own body, then passed through the barrier without any obstruction and appeared outside.
"Soul!"
"Damn it, it's the soul!"
Ni Lan and Xu Dong immediately understood. They also began to burn their own bodies without hesitation. Obviously, they also wanted their souls to obtain more nutrients from their bodies when they left their bodies. They also wanted to use the same method as Su Bai.
However …
Su Bai's body exploded with a loud bang.
Even Ni Lan and Xu Dong's bodies, which had yet to completely burn, exploded.
Ni Lan and Xu Dong's souls flew out of the barrier in a panic. The two of them looked at Su Bai, who was obviously more solid and thicker than them, with resentment.
They knew …
Su Bai was deliberately making their souls weaker than his!
Yes, it was very likely that all three sinners would die in this story world. If there was a chance of survival, at most one of them would live.
Sometimes, the three of them were allies.
However, all three of them knew that they were all competitors, and they were competing for the same goal.
It was the illusory only chance to leave this story world in a way of survival!
