I made myself the protagonist

Chapter 4 The Game Begins

"The location you are currently in is the easternmost exhibition hall of the art museum. There are five similar halls from east to west. The westernmost hall leads to the exit. If you want to leave, you must proceed in order."

"Next, you must escape from this building within half an hour, otherwise, the loser will stay with me forever! Hehehehe..."

A burst of sinister laughter came from the radio, making everyone shudder.

A male player walked to the door and tried to push it open; but soon he discovered that there was a password lock beside the door, and he needed to enter a four-digit password to open it.

"Only by finding the correct number can the door be opened. As for the password to open the door, it is hidden in the three rooms of red, yellow and blue in each exhibition hall. You have to look carefully!"

After the female voice finished speaking, she continued to add: "Oh yes, there is one more thing that everyone needs to pay attention to: there is only one room in each hall that hides the real password; and if you enter the wrong room, you will be killed immediately~ So, Qian

You must choose carefully. Also, Jasmine hates cheating the most. Once I find you secretly using abilities or props to destroy the password lock, or leaving here in a cheating way, you will bear the consequences."

"What?!"

After hearing this sentence, all the players' faces turned extremely pale. Jasmine's words were a warning, which meant that in the next action, they could not use gifts, not even props.

Hearing this, Tang Yao couldn't help but look at Ling Yun.

Thinking of what the other party said to her before, Tang Yao's doubts became deeper.

Combined with the previous warning from the other party before entering the Silent Hill copy, as well as various performances during the first mission...

When he finally escaped into the truck with him, Ling Yun once said that it was him who was wrong.

Vaguely, Tang Yao always felt that there seemed to be some unknown secrets hidden in Ling Yun. He seemed to have the ability to foresee, and could always sense danger in advance or guess the content of the mission.

As early as after returning from the Silent Hill mission, she asked Wei Chongming his opinion on this matter; and the other person's thoughts were the same as hers.

Although he was suspicious, Wei Chongming did not ask why Ling Yun knew the clues about the church's livelihood.

In his words, Ling Yun saved his life. No matter who the other person was, why he knew how to solve the mission, or what secrets he had... he always chose to believe Ling Yun.

As if sensing Tang Yao's gaze, Ling Yun knew what the other party was suspecting, and immediately explained: "Silly girl, if there was no restriction of this rule, I could completely leave here using the ability of telekinesis. As for other players, there must be others.

Props for space transfer; then wouldn’t the game be meaningless? In addition to testing physical strength, the most important thing about escape rooms is definitely IQ.”

"So that's it...that's right." Tang Yao looked at Ling Yun and smiled with relief.

Although Ling Yun had secrets that were difficult for her to see through, she knew very well that from the moment she met him to the present, everything Ling Yun said and did was for everyone; and he did save her again and again.

If it hadn't been for Ling Yun, I would never have been able to survive until now.

Thinking of this, Tang Yao suddenly felt a little guilty because she shouldn't have thought so wildly.

The deaths of Zi Ting and Xiao Xue made her realize that if she could not become stronger, she would not be able to go far. So in the future, she must work harder to stand beside Ling Yun as an excellent teammate.

"In order to make the process more exciting, there will be other surprises after the game starts... Are you ready?"

While Tang Yao was thinking, the radio had already sounded a countdown:

5,4,3,2,1... Let's go!

The moment the broadcast ended, everyone noticed a timer lit up in the center of the hall. Looking at the passage of time, everyone understood that they had to hurry up.

The exhibition hall covers an area of ​​about 500 square meters, and there are three glass rooms with lights on, namely yellow, blue and red.

At first glance, there are at least twenty or thirty works displayed in each room; just looking for the password will probably take a lot of time.

"There are a total of five halls in the art museum, but the stipulated time for escape is only half an hour...that is to say, each hall only takes about six minutes to clear. Damn it, how can this be done in time!" The person who spoke was a man with a board.

inch young man.

"One more thing, when you can't use powers and props, if you choose the wrong room, you will be killed immediately. But the devil knows which one is correct!" A young man in white said angrily.

Thinking of what was said on the radio, no one now dared to approach the three glass rooms of different colors for fear of triggering a dead end.

Seeing that there was no solution to the stalemate, a few people came to the door and tried to guess the password to unlock it; while the remaining people wandered around the three rooms, trying to see through the glass walls to see what dangers were hidden in these rooms.

.

On the other side, a young woman with a ponytail and gold-rimmed glasses walked out of the crowd.

She came to the combination lock door, took a look, and said to everyone: "Forget it. This kind of four-digit password, even if it is not repeated, has 5040 combinations. If you continue to try like this, it will just be a waste of time.

"

"Then what do you think we should do, Teacher Holo?"

The young man who had spoken previously stopped what he was doing. He spoke in a tone of great respect for the woman. From this, it seemed that the other party was very capable.

After he asked, the woman pushed up her glasses and said calmly: "Although there is about a 30% chance of being right if you choose one of the three rooms, this is a gamble at the cost of life. I believe everyone present

No one dares to try it, right?"

After Holo finished speaking, the remaining players shook their heads with confused expressions.

"So I think there must be clues about the correct exhibition hall in the hall. It's impossible for us to rely on luck. Instead of wasting time on meaningless things like guessing passwords, it's better to find clues now. You see, it's not

Has anyone moved yet?"

What Holo was referring to was Ling Yun and Tang Yao.

Compared with the players who were lingering around the room or leaning towards the door to try to crack the code, she noticed that only these two people took the correct action after the broadcast announced the start of the mission.

There is a table under the timer in the hall with ten flashlights on it.

After the game started, Ling Yun and Tang Yao each took a handful. Since the hall was now dark, if you wanted to see the surroundings clearly, you needed light. The short-haired young man and the woman named He Luo also left one by one.

He stepped forward and picked out a flashlight.

Seeing them doing this, other players also honestly picked up their own lighting props and searched for clues in every corner of the exhibition hall.

In the blink of an eye, three minutes passed. Half the time passed, but during this period, no one could find any clues about the room.

As the time on the timer passed by, an atmosphere of anxiety gradually spread among the players.

In the darkness, everyone heard the sound of fighting coming from other directions. By the time they could see clearly what happened, it was already too late.

A middle-aged man with a height of nearly 1.9 meters and a strong physique restrained a young man who was struggling and dragged him outside the door of the glass room with yellow light.

"No!!! Please..."

The young man immediately realized that the other party wanted to use him as a guinea pig to explore the way. He begged and resisted the other party. However, the next second, everyone saw that the middle-aged man took out a dagger from his waist and picked it without hesitation.

Broken the young man's hamstring.

Amidst the young man's screams, the middle-aged man picked him up like a chicken and threw him into the house.

The young man looked around in horror. Because his legs were bleeding continuously, he could only use his hands and feet to crawl towards the door.

However, at this moment, a mural on the wall behind him suddenly changed.

Two pairs of pale arms suddenly stretched out from the painting, and the ghostly hands suddenly grabbed the young man's shoulders and quickly pulled him towards the wall.

"Help ah ah ah!"

A shocking blood trail was dragged out on the floor of the room. The young man lowered his head and looked at the pair of pale hands wrapped around his ribs. He felt a strange force dragging him into the painting.

His whole body was stuck outside the frame in a folded posture. Under the gaze of the middle-aged man, the young man kept screaming, his squeezed spine kept making "click" sounds, and blood flowed down his body.

, flowed all over the wall along the wall.

Soon, the young man slowly lowered his head, with a frightened expression on his pale face.

The whole room was filled with the crisp sound of bones being crushed, and the young man's body was pulled into the frame little by little.

When the last two limp arms were hanging by the wall, the strange force "swish" pulled, and the body disappeared from everyone's sight.

At the same time, the lights in the yellow room suddenly went out, and the entire room fell into darkness.

The only ones with lights on are the blue and red rooms.

The middle-aged man stood at the door with a cold look in his eyes, not feeling guilty at all for what he did.
