Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 76 Destiny Depends on People's Double Six (3)

"Okay, the white team has already reported the number, and now the red team is asked to report the number!"

Mr. Point called out a second time.

After one count, the players from the red and white teams—Lin Sanjiu and the unfamiliar tall young man, stood on the first grid with stiff expressions on their faces.Looking at the question marks in those two grids, she couldn't help frowning slightly: What could be under this question mark?
"1 box." She gave the same answer again.

"For the second time, the white team moves forward 1 space, and the red team moves forward 1 space!"

As soon as Mr. Dian's voice fell, the rear teammates in the red and white camps all showed an expression of "as expected".

The design of this game seems to be simply meaningless.How many squares to advance depends entirely on the opponent, so in order to ensure that their opponents can move forward at the slowest speed, both sides will only dawdle one by one until the final result is a duel.

However, is this really the case?
Lin Sanjiu thought as he stepped into the second grid.

If it is true that the winner can only be determined by duel, why not just change it to a duel from the beginning?

There was another "ding dong" sound, and the second question mark at the foot disappeared again, replaced by a street pattern full of crowded cars.

Lin Sanjiu looked up at the man opposite, and saw that he was also frowning with a confused expression.

"Oops!" Mr. Dian shouted in an exaggerated tone, "Just when the two players stepped on the grid, the New Year's bell rang - the white team players were arrested for setting off fireworks in the square. Fine, white team -1 point!"

"It turned out to be the New Year" before the thought faded out of his mind, the red and white teams looked a little stupidly in the direction of the depths of the white fog - but unlike the white team members, the red team members quickly Excited, everyone looked happy.

On the other side of the barrier, the young men of the white team almost couldn't help rushing into the fog to find Mr. Point's theory: "Hey, did you make a mistake? Don't you only get one point when you win the game, how can you do this? Deduct it casually? That way, even if I win the game, it's a win for nothing!"

Hu Changzai and Hai Tianqing stood behind him and looked at each other after hearing this, not knowing whether to be happy or unhappy.Although they were in a complicated mood, on the surface they held back and didn't show it - because of Lin Sanjiu's gesture, the two of them concealed it very well, and the people in the white team never knew that there were still friends in the red team.

"Have you forgotten the description of 'scoring points' and 'lossing points' in the rules?" Mr. Point's voice was still the same, unmoved: "If you want to earn more points, try to find out the points. Click!"

The young man spat fiercely, staring at the squares on the ground, as if to see the difference from the dozen or so identical question marks.

"As for the red team players--" Mr. Dian continued, "there are too many people who want to watch the New Year's Eve fireworks. The red team players are unfortunately stuck in the road, and they will be suspended next time."

The word "pause" quickly froze the smiles of the red team members.

"Are you kidding me?" Lian Xiaolian stood up, "A pause means that you can't move forward next time? That's more than that, so the opponent won't win!"

Because of the rules, the minimum number that Lin Sanjiu can bid each time is 1.So in the state that they are one space behind, the two are still moving forward one space at a time, and it is almost certain that they have lost the game.

"No, that's not right!" Zhong Junkai frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "The penalty of pausing forward is a powerful tool to turn the game around. We can't be the only one with a pause box, right? That's too much. It's not fair... there will definitely be some on the opponent's side!"

When everyone heard it, they all felt that what he said was reasonable; Lao Wang slapped his hand and agreed: "Xiao Zhong is right! It seems that the key to this game lies in these pauses. Whoever is unlucky to step more, whoever will lose."

The brown-haired rabbit glanced at everyone and said nothing.

When everyone knew each other just now, no one asked about it at all—it seemed that they didn't see the rabbit as a member of the red team; to be honest, it was more like Lin Sanjiu's pet.

After thinking of this, the brown-haired rabbit decided to stop talking if he could, but just sat honestly like a rabbit.

After listening to the four of the red team discussing for a while, Mr. Dian's third count began again: "The white team moves forward one space, and the red team pauses."

The anger that the young man had when he was deducted one point just now disappeared. He glanced at Lin Sanjiu and stepped into the third square with a bit of pride.

"... At the company's year-end party, the white team player drew a treasure chest. But when I got it in my hand, I found it was a broken and dirty box with the word 'bad luck box' written on it. I asked the white team player to open it. ?"

Unexpectedly, the treasure chest opened in the square has the right to choose whether to open it or not - the young man was stunned, as if he was very uncertain, after thinking for a long time, he turned back to his teammates as if asking for help.

Although players and teammates can't talk to each other, they can still see each other, just nod and shake their heads to express their meaning.Except for the old woman who nodded, the others frowned and shook their heads.

After all, it is clearly written on the box - "the box of bad luck", since it is bad luck, why take the risk to open it?

The young man turned his head, gritted his teeth, and said something, seemingly giving up on opening the box.

His choice was right - "The white team player chose not to open the box, and the poisonous snake in the box could no longer bite."

Not knowing what the consequences of being bitten would be, the young man could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Since the start of the game, he has only walked three squares, but it has already been a heavy loss; now that he can avoid the disaster, he already feels very lucky.

The next time the number was counted, the two sides still walked forward without any suspense.This time, the red team that Lin Sanjiu belonged to was robbed of a prize because the loan shark could not pay, while the white team was suspended once because the car broke down.

Sure enough, as Zhong Junkai expected, both sides had a time-out grid.

At the fourth count, both sides stood in the 4th square, and again they were even.This time, their luck was slightly better than the previous three times—the red team player went into the hotel to rest for a while, and came out with no loss or gain; the white team player got a treasure box, and after opening the treasure box, they got An opportunity to "regret a move".

At this point, the red team has 3 remaining prizes, scores -1 point, and has a "PASS" opportunity, and is in the 4th square.

The white team has 4 remaining prizes, scores -1 point, has one chance to "regret a move", bears a point-reduction curse, and is in the 4th square.

In the fifth count, the two sides moved forward again, this time both sides were deducted a prize at the same time.

Seeing that there were only two prizes left in the blink of an eye, everyone in the red team couldn't help but change their expressions.Chen Fan even became suspicious, thinking that this was a scam designed to defraud other people's belongings - but guessing, he still couldn't muster the courage to walk into the white fog to find Mr. Dot to confirm.

In this way, the two sides walked through the seven counts step by step.Every step has to bleed once - because although each time the question mark is opened, the encounter is different, but without exception, it is unfortunate; it is very fortunate to occasionally meet someone who does not hurt or itch.Before they knew it, everyone almost forgot to win the prizes on the other side, and only hoped that their losses would be less.

After seven counts, the red team has 2 prizes, a score of -2 points, a "PASS" opportunity, and a "5-minute half-time break" opportunity.

The white team has 3 prizes, scores -2 points, has a chance to "regret a move", and bears a curse of minus points.

Both sides are currently on the 7th grid, and they are still flat.

Just before Mr. Dian was about to call out the eighth count, everyone in the red team slumped on the ground because of boredom and frustration, looking weakly at the direction of the game, and occasionally chatting with teammates.Anyway, those two players are just walking forward one block at a time, and they will bleed a lot every time they walk, so what is there to look forward to?Just have to wait for the final duel!
In such an atmosphere, it was the Brown Rabbit who first noticed something strange-because the sound of the eighth count was not heard for a long time.

It looked up suspiciously, and found that Lin Sanjiu was half-turned, facing the depths of the white mist, as if he was talking to someone—and in that direction, there was no one else except Mr. Dian.

Although she couldn't hear what she said, her move quickly attracted the attention of the red and white teams, and everyone looked at Lin Sanjiu.After a while, I heard Mr. Dian suddenly say "Okay", and then there was no further text.

"Eh? Why do I feel like... it seems that Miss Lin is talking to that man?" Lian Xiaolian looked at it for a while, then suddenly muttered something. "Did she just ask Mr. Dian to talk to the white team players?"

When she said this, everyone in the red team looked at the situation in the game field in surprise.

Although Lin Sanjiu turned his back to the red team members, because the white team player was standing opposite, the expression on his face was naturally seen clearly by everyone.I saw that the young men in the white team were surprised at first, then frowned, and glanced at Lin Sanjiu with some unease.Lin Sanjiu's back looked very excited, he gestured with both hands for a long time, and after talking for a long time, the young man opposite nodded hesitantly. The two seemed to have finally reached an agreement.

Lin Sanjiu, who got the answer from his opponent, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his shoulders relaxed.

Soon, amid the intense curiosity and doubts of the red and white teams, Mr. Dian's eighth count began—

"The white team advances 3 squares, the red team advances 1 square!"
