Although the time was short.
Irin did not randomly choose this option.
When there was movement behind them, other than Irin, the other five apostles seemed to have a tacit understanding and made their own choices at almost the same time.
The moment Irin made his choice, his two legs moved forward involuntarily. He could not control them.
As for the others, they all walked towards their respective choices without saying a word.
"So the choice of the 'Action Class' is different from the 'Language Class'?"
Irin had a new discovery.
This feeling was very strange.
Although his body was not completely out of control, it seemed that somewhere in this Styx, there was a place that had a great attraction to Irin.
As long as he lifted his leg, he would involuntarily walk in a certain direction. He could not control his body.
However, other small movements, such as turning his head, swinging his arm, pulling in his butt, and other movements of his limbs and muscles, were not restricted.
If one had to use a sentence to sum up this strange situation, it would be — the body is upright.
Irin turned his head with a smile. His feet moved automatically while he said, "I think you guys should have no more questions, right?"
Other than Oda Wu, the others walked with their heads down. Their faces were filled with surprise.
After Tiantian made her choice, she understood the meaning of Irin's words. She also suddenly understood what happened in the classroom just now.
So that was it!
So this was the way to play!
After making their choice, everyone had their own plans.
To be precise, after seeing the options, they already had a plan. Therefore, they made their choice from the bottom of their hearts.
"Could this be the legendary automatic pathfinding function? It seems that in the games of the last century, there was research that showed that this function could cause the player's gaming IQ to decrease greatly. Therefore, this function was removed in the later stages of the game … However, from a certain perspective, it is quite convenient. "
Irin lowered his head and used a voice that only he could hear to talk to himself.
The five of them came to the staircase.
At this time, it was lunch break. Occasionally, three groups of Styx Junior High School students could be seen walking along the corridor. The smiles on their faces were innocent and full of youthfulness.
"If it was not for the anatomy class just now, I might have believed your nonsense."
Irin secretly complained.
In the stairwell.
The five of them made different choices and went their separate ways.
Oda Wu and Han Han turned right one after the other and went up the stairs.
Tiantai?
Irin memorized all the options in order to avoid any traps hidden in the options.
Therefore, when he saw the two of them, he could roughly guess their choice.
At the same time, Irin also discovered a pattern.
Under the same conditions, or rather under the same trigger conditions, the choices of the five of them should not be too different.
However, as the trial went on, everyone would make different choices and actions. It would definitely cause everyone's choices to become more and more different.
"Every choice you make will determine your fate … Is that what you mean?"
"No, maybe it's not that simple. Tower would never give such an obvious hint."
"Of course, this is not absolute."
Irin savored the first hint of the quest.
He had a feeling that there must be some kind of key clue hidden in those words.
While Irin was thinking.
Tiantian, Liuliu, and Irin, two men and one woman, went down the stairs.
They did not speak along the way.
Tiantian did not continue to flirt. He did not know if it was because Liuliu was there.
Liuliu was a shy girl. Compared to the others, she had the strongest scholarly aura. He did not know what her identity was in reality.
After arriving on the first floor, Liuliu and Tiantian left the teaching building and walked in a certain direction at the same time.
"Gate?"
After thinking for a while, Irin understood the choice of the two. He could not help but lower his head and smile.
Among the three options, there were three corresponding locations.
Gate.
Cafeteria.
Tiantai.
Although they did not have memories related to the beginning of the Styx in their minds and did not have a map.
But from the literal point of view, if they wanted to escape from the beginning of the Styx, "Gate" was the best solution, "Tiantai" was second, and "Cafeteria" was the most inexplicable.
If Tiantian and Liuliu's choice was not unexpected, they should have chosen the location of the gate at the beginning of the Styx from the choice of this operation.
A gate would always make people associate it with the location of the exit. This was understandable.
If they chose "Tiantai" and looked down from above, they could take the opportunity to take in the structure of the entire Styx and lay a good foundation for the next step of the escape plan.
"Everyone has a good idea."
Irin was very emotional. At this level, it seemed that it was rare to see someone with a bad brain. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for them to survive until now. Unless … they were too lucky.
Thinking of luck.
Pan Zhengyi's silly smile flashed across Irin's mind.
That guy with a bad brain, it was really a wonder that he could survive until now.
Could it be that with 8.6 Luck, he could really do whatever he wanted?
After speculating the thoughts of the others, what surprised Irin was that Oda Wu actually used her brain, which made Irin look at her in a new light.
With the automatic pathfinding mode, Irin arrived at the cafeteria in about ten minutes.
If it were not for the main mission, Irin might have suspected that the flourishing scene along the way was really the place for this trial.
The cafeteria was an old building.
The curved roof was covered with mottled scarlet rust, and there was a faint smell of decay.
From the outside, the cafeteria of Styx Junior High looked like a red egg.
Similar to the style of the school building, there seemed to be no windows, and the entire cafeteria was airtight. The open door was like a dormant monster with its mouth wide open, waiting for Irin to take the initiative to come to it.
Irin hesitated at the door for a moment.
He tried to move his legs to other places, but his legs did not move.
"Before I complete my choice, I can't completely regain my freedom?"
Irin's eyes flashed, but his expression was calm.
Students came in and out of the cafeteria, both men and women. From time to time, someone would cast a strange look at Irin.
"If you continue to stand there like this, there is no doubt that it will not match your 'identity'. The notification also states clearly, please remember your 'identity'."
If he did too many things that did not match his identity, what would happen?
Before he had more information, Irin did not intend to casually try.
This was also one of the reasons why Irin chose to go to the cafeteria.
During lunch break, as a hungry student, coming to the cafeteria to eat could be said to be the choice that best matched his "identity".
There was no other choice.
"Since I'm here, I'll just take it as it comes."
Irin smiled and decisively stepped into the cafeteria.
The moment he stepped into the cafeteria, the invisible shackles that bound Irin's legs quietly dissipated.
Irin regained his freedom as soon as he stepped into the cafeteria.
"Hmm? As long as I enter the cafeteria, it's okay to not continue to the next step? Then what if I turn around and leave now? Nothing will happen? "
Irin came up with another conjecture in his mind.
Step by step.
And at this moment …
Irin's expression froze slightly.
Unexpectedly, but within reason. Bai Jun appeared again.
[You have arrived at the cafeteria in an unfamiliar school.]
Irin sighed helplessly. "Damn it … As expected."
[Rumor has it that there are five transfer students in Class Two of Grade Three. This has spread throughout the entire Styhe Junior High School in a short period of time.]
[Perhaps it is because of your appearance, or perhaps it is because of your temperament. In short, when you stepped into the cafeteria, many students have already recognized you.]
[Among them, there are even your classmates who have mixed feelings about you.]
[You suddenly feel a little scared.]
[Because you have shown enough stage fright in this unfamiliar environment.]
Irin pondered for a moment. At this moment, should he shake his legs a little to better immerse himself in this identity?
Otherwise, how could it be called stage fright?
Irin quickly extracted the key information from these few short but important narration.
"This trial is getting more and more interesting."
Bai Jun continued to read the narration tirelessly.
[But you are very hungry.]
[Very hungry.]
[Really hungry.]
[So you —]
[Please make a choice.]
[A, forget it. The unfamiliar environment made me lose my appetite instantly. Forget it this time, but I will definitely do it next time.]
[B, I don't care if it is a sea of people. If I am hungry, I must eat first.]
[C, I changed my mind. I want to go to other places, such as … the girls' locker room. Maybe I will enter an unexpected world.]
Irin was speechless.
Huh?
This C?
Something was not right.
What would happen if he chose C?
Would he directly rush into the girls' locker room in "pathfinding mode"?
What if something happened? Who would be responsible for it?
Irin hesitated for a few seconds.
Option C was so strange that Irin could not make up his mind to choose it.
Besides, what was there to see in the girls' locker room?
As for option A, Irin immediately excluded it.
After thinking about it, option B was still the safest option.
Therefore, Irin chose option B again.
After he made his choice.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Irin came to the cafeteria auntie.
Irin raised his head. The cafeteria auntie's appearance made Irin pay more attention to her. Because this figure reminded him of Su Xiaosu.
The cafeteria auntie's face was a pile of fat. She squeezed out a kind smile. "Student, there is a new menu today! What do you want to eat? You look quite unfamiliar. Are you new? Don't worry, the whole Styx cafeteria knows that I am famous for my hands not trembling when it comes to dishes. I will make sure you are full! "
The cafeteria auntie spoke with a fierce voice. She bent down through the gap in the wall and shook her big spoon a few times, indicating for Irin to choose his dish as soon as possible.
When Irin arrived at the food counter.
For some reason.
People surrounded Irin from behind. Countless gazes fell on Irin's back. It made Irin feel as if there was a blade on his back and a chill ran down his spine.
A choice appeared in front of him again.
[Faced with a brand new menu, you glanced at it. Among them, a few dishes caught your attention.]
[At this time, you choose —]
[A, Tendon Stewed Fresh Eyeballs.]
[B, Blood Pus Grass Roasted Bone Marrow Paste.]
[C, Stir-Fried Ox Demon with Potato Shreds.]
[D, Auntie, only children make choices. I want all of them!]
Irin: "…"
At the same time.
Oda Wu and Hanhan arrived at the rooftop.
When the two of them arrived at the rooftop, the restraints on their bodies were released at the same time.
They regained their freedom.
There was only one girl standing on the rooftop.
Oda Wu suddenly frowned slightly and subconsciously put her right hand on her waist.
But at this moment, there was no knife on her waist.
She pursed her lips and was silent for a moment. Then she put her hand down again.
Hanhan had been paying attention to Oda Wu's actions. Seeing this, he smiled slightly. "Looks like Wuwu is a martial artist?"
Oda Wu raised her head and looked at the confident man in front of her.
"Hehe, don't treat me like an outsider. I'm ashamed to say that I don't have any abilities worth bragging about. But my observation skills are not bad. That's why I've been able to live until now."
The smile on Hanhan's face grew wider. "Your gait is steady and powerful. Your inner thighs are naturally close together. The gap between each step is not more than 2cm. It looks like you've been training for many years … Hmm? You're a swordsman? Sorry, I'm just guessing. Your aura reminds me of a swordsman. "
Oda Wu's expression was the same as before, but there was a hint of anger in her eyes.
Hanhan hurriedly waved his hand. "Hehe, don't. Calm down. Don't look at me like that. I just want to say that in this escape mission, there's no need for us to be enemies. After all, from the looks of the main mission, we shouldn't fall to the point of killing each other. At least, not for now. "
"Moreover, I think that since you've chosen the rooftop, you should have the same thoughts as me. That's why I said a few more words. After all, I personally like to deal with smart people."
Oda Wu: "?"
"You should have also discovered the strangeness of this school from class. If I'm not wrong, all the students in this school aren't ordinary people. Every choice seems ordinary, but in fact, there's a hidden danger. If you make the wrong choice, it's very likely that you'll trigger some kind of death flag."
Hanhan smiled confidently. Seeing that Oda Wu didn't refute, he continued, "Among the three choices, the 'gate' is obviously a trap. Since it's an escape mission, it's natural that they want to go to the school gate. However, why would this trial so easily place the escape route in the open? "
"If I'm not wrong, there's a 90% chance that the 'gate' option is a trap. A trap where once you step in, there's no return. If they choose to go to the gate, then they can only pray for good luck."
Hanhan didn't hesitate to tell Oda Wu this "precious" information.
In his opinion, since Oda Wu had chosen the rooftop like him, she must have thought of the same thing as him.
At the beginning of the trial, one of the lessons he had learned from surviving so many trials was to rope in smart teammates as much as possible.
Having a godly teammate was much better than having three useless teammates.
The strangeness of this escape trial was beyond his imagination. It would be very difficult for one person to pass the trial. By telling her this insignificant information, Hanhan wanted to show some sincerity. He wanted to rope this girl, who seemed to have good combat strength, into his team.
In the trial, wasn't it normal for each team to form their own camp or temporary small teams?
When they weren't sure where the escape route was, it was undoubtedly the smartest thing to do.
When Oda Wu heard this, she didn't express her opinion. She looked around Hanhan and looked forward with a deep gaze.
On the empty rooftop.
There was a girl, standing quietly on the edge of the rooftop, looking into the distance.
When Hanhan arrived on the rooftop, he had already noticed the girl's existence.
Because of this, he instantly showed hostility towards Oda Wu. From this, he could infer that Oda Wu's combat strength should be very amazing.
This kind of subconscious reaction to an enemy couldn't be formed into a conditioned reflex without the accumulation of years of practice.
Everyone had the experience of passing the trial.
Hanhan was no exception.
Using all the people and things he could use in the trial, this was the creed he lived by.
He believed that to be able to see through the trap and choose option C, she must have a clear logic and extraordinary wisdom. At the same time, he also believed that when he explained his reasoning in an orderly and logical manner, that smart woman with a cold expression would definitely choose to cooperate with him in this trial.
As for when the cooperation would end, it wasn't up to her to decide.
Many thoughts flashed through Hanhan's mind.
He was full of confidence.
This kind of strange opening was actually his area of expertise.
Rather than competing with strength, he would rather rely on wisdom.
Wisdom was the ladder of human progress.
Apostles … were the same.
That was why he was the spiritual side.
Oda Wu lowered her head. Her right hand slightly closed, as if she was hesitating.
Actually, Hanhan didn't think that Oda Wu's subconscious action was only because she was thinking about whether or not she could kill this talkative man.
In Oda Wu's eyes.
There were two kinds of people in the world.
People who could be killed, and people who couldn't be killed for the time being.
There were only these two kinds. There was no third.
When Oda Wu lowered her head to think, Hanhan gave Oda Wu enough time to think. At the same time, he slowly walked towards the girl who was standing proudly on the rooftop like a white lotus, looking into the distance.
"The initial choice must have a great meaning."
"Choosing one out of three, the rooftop should be the correct choice."
"Before, I wasn't 100% sure, but the appearance of this girl proved that I was right."
"The most unique existence must have its own meaning. It is very possible that this is one of the NPCs who provided crucial information in this trial."
Hanhan thought so.
But he didn't dare to let down his guard.
After all, that vivid "anatomy class" had already rung the alarm bell for everyone.
Everyone here felt that something was wrong.
Whether it was this school or these students who didn't seem to have any problems.
It seemed peaceful, but there was a turbulent undercurrent.
Of course, even without the reminder, as an apostle, he couldn't be careless in this kind of situation.
Tower's bad taste was that the more harmless a place looked, the more likely it was to be filled with hidden dangers.
At this moment.
The narrator appeared in front of Hanhan.
[You have chosen to walk up to the rooftop. Whether you are about to face a romantic encounter, overlook an unfamiliar scenery, or feel the gentle breeze, no matter what you encounter, your decision will not waver in the slightest.]
The moment Hanhan saw the narrator appear, he felt joy in the depths of his heart.
As expected!
It seemed that he had made the right choice!
The narrator ignored Hanhan's feelings and continued.
[A girl suddenly appeared in front of you.]
[A girl who makes you feel that the world in front of you has suddenly become pale.]
[This girl's back view makes you feel that, at this moment, no matter what the world has become, it is no longer important.]
[So, you choose —]
[A: Walk forward, pat the girl's shoulder, and ask for her name.]
[B: Walk quietly to the girl's side, and stare at the sky with misty eyes.]
[C: Immediately turn around and leave, giving up on this encounter that might happen in the future.]
Here it comes!
Another multiple-choice question!
Obviously, this NPC was here to deliver information!
As long as he made the right choice and could strike up a conversation with this girl, it was very likely that he could get more information about Minghe High School from her.
The building of this school was obviously quite old.
Maybe someone in the school knew about the hidden secret passage, the abandoned back door, the river in the underground cave … Such a hidden exit might be the real answer to escape!
Hanhan instantly calmed down, stayed where he was, and carefully observed the options.
He had already noticed the trick in the initial quest prompt.
Every option was extremely important.
Just like in traditional text adventure games, once he made the wrong choice, it was very likely that he would take another branch, and there might even be a plot where the male protagonist would die on the spot after receiving a bento box.
"Careful … careful."
First of all.
[Option C] could be excluded.
Leave? Leave for what?
Wouldn't that make even the option of going up to the rooftop meaningless?
Haha, if you don't take the initiative, how can there be a story?
"Option C must be a trap, it's obvious … Option A, in romance novels, is a typical loser's pickup line. This kind of trick has been abandoned since the last century.
"Option B is a bit more advanced, but it's also a bit old-fashioned. If I could choose, I would directly ask, 'Student, what's the color of love in your eyes?' to start the conversation … Hmm, but if I can only choose one out of three, option B should be the best answer."
Eh?
Suddenly.
Hanhan caught a glimpse of Oda Mai, who was originally standing at the entrance of the rooftop, unexpectedly disappeared while he was focused on solving the multiple-choice question.
"She actually left?"
Hanhan was surprised.
He originally estimated that the probability of working together should be more than 70%.
He felt a little regretful, but now wasn't the time to regret. He could only wait for the short story in front of him to end before going to have a good chat with Oda Mai.
Hmm, let's talk about it later.
Let's talk about it later.
There should be a chance later.
Hanhan deliberated on the spot for another ten seconds or so before finally choosing option B.
Soon, Hanhan's eyes revealed 30% desolation, 30% loneliness, 30% confusion, and 30% sorrow hidden in the depths of his eyes. With this kind of complicated expression, Hanhan walked towards the girl who was gazing at the sky with this slightly sorrowful persona.
Closer, closer, closer.
Hanhan felt his palms sweating, but he didn't know if it was because of nervousness or fear.
Ten meters, five meters, three meters.
At this time, Hanhan could finally see the girl's side profile from this angle. He was instantly stunned.
The girl's side profile inadvertently revealed 30% desolation, 30% loneliness, 30% confusion, and 30% sorrow hidden in the depths of her eyes … Eh? Wait, why is this persona so similar to what I'm showing?
Just as the two of them were getting closer and closer.
Before Hanhan could say anything, the girl's back was facing him, and she suddenly spoke softly in an ethereal tone.
"Hey, do you know what color the sky is?"
Hanhan … had a dumbfounded expression.
Wait, this script, there seems to be something wrong!
Wasn't the choice he made not carried out yet?
Why was the change of scene a little different from the choice?
…
In another place.
At the same time.
After Liuliu and Tiantian crossed the field, they finally arrived at the entrance of the Styx.
There were people coming and going on the field. Some were snuggling up to each other, some were eating boxed lunches, some were exercising, and some were kissing in public. At first glance, everything was no different from normal school life.
With strange feelings, Liuliu and Tiantian stopped almost simultaneously ten meters away from the entrance of the Styx under the drive of "pathfinding mode".
In an instant, both of them were shocked and couldn't help but look at each other.
"…"
