Chapter 358: The Pocket Watch That Makes Your Wishes Come True

Although Wang Yu didn't know what this difference meant, he could guess that it was probably because different changes occurred in the game as the game progressed, and this change was likely related to the so-called "work" in the end.

While he was thinking, Li Daoxian's move was nearing completion.

The black tower in the black tower area has disappeared, leaving only a large open space.

The players who had been transferred away earlier now slowly appeared in this open space, still in the coma state they were in when they left.

Soon the first person woke up from coma. It was Dou Di. He looked up and was surprised to see that he was still alive.

"I'm alive?"

Because in his last memory, he seemed to have been taken into the small cauldron by Wang Yu for refinement, so how could he still be alive...

He raised his head and looked at the host not far away to make sure that he was still in the fog game.

Perhaps, something unexpected really happened?

He looked around and saw more and more people waking up from their coma.

More and more people woke up, and they were all a little surprised. After all, their last memories were similar. They thought they would all be refined by Wang Yu, but they didn't expect that they would still be alive.

Perhaps the only ones who were not surprising were Long Muba and No. 14.

The two of them knew very well why the others were able to survive. Even Long Muba was inspired by what had happened before and followed suit to save his own life.

Their current thoughts are very simple. Since they have survived, their biggest wish now is to leave the game with their awakened abilities.

……

I see that all the players below have woken up.

The host, Li Daoxian, looked at the players and said in a brisk voice, "Congratulations, everyone. Because of the rule change, although you were eliminated in the last round, you still have your lives."

"You are now free to choose to leave, of course, you can also participate in a welfare game."

Welfare game?

The players below held their breath, waiting for the host to continue speaking.

Wang Yu on the observation deck frowned, because he had clearly made a choice in the last round, giving everyone a chance to leave the game, but what was the situation now?

Why not just let the players leave?

Wang Yu didn't understand, but he instinctively felt that the setting of this link definitely had a purpose, but he didn't know what the purpose was.

Of course, there are many players who think so.

"If you choose to leave the game immediately, the condition is half of your lifespan. Of course, I know that this is a bit too cruel for many players. You have clearly awakened your abilities, but you are depriving them of them. This is difficult for anyone to bear."

Li Daoxian looked at the players below with a smile, and said in a relaxed tone: "Please don't worry too much. As I said before, at the end of the event, I will provide a little benefit to all the players who have worked hard to get here."

"The name of this session is 'Easy Question Answering'."

"Each of you will receive some questions. As long as you can answer one of them correctly, the price you need to pay for leaving will be written off."

As soon as the voice fell, the players perked up, and someone immediately said: "Can we leave here without paying a price?"

Li Daoxian nodded, confirming what the players said.

He repeated once more: "Yes, just as you thought, as long as you answer correctly, you can retain your current awakening abilities and lifespan, leave here, and return to your original world."

This is equivalent to directly gaining half of your life span, which is a huge reward.

Li Daoxian's straightforward answer did not reassure the players.

After all, after going through several game levels, players have a certain understanding of this game. Although it has always claimed to be kind, there are always pitfalls.

So one player asked: "What if you can't answer it?"

Li Daoxian replied with a smile: "There will be no punishment if you can't answer."

The host's answer was a positive response to the questions in this section, and it also made many people confused about the purpose of this level.

The players were a little skeptical. If what the host said was true, then this level would be a bonus level?

If you answer correctly, you will make a lot of money, and if you answer incorrectly, you will not lose anything.

Could it be that it is really a welfare?

Li Daoxian did not give the players too much time to think, but smiled and said: "Players who do not want to participate in this session, please raise your hands, ten, nine..."

None of the twenty-seven players in the audience raised their hands, but chose to wait and see.

They looked at each other and found that no one raised their hand when the host finished counting down.

Everyone chose to participate without any prior agreement.

This was within everyone's expectations.

The reason is easy to understand. After all, leaving the game requires paying half of your life span, which is really too much.

If there is such an opportunity to save decades of life, it would naturally be the best, and no one would refuse to try it.

Of course, the more important point is that there is no penalty for failure.

Li Daoxian had expected such a scene. He smiled and said, "I am glad to see that you have all made wise choices. I also hope that there will be talents among you who can stand out."

Li Daoxian clapped his hands.

The space in front of each player was slightly distorted, and then a rolled-up parchment scroll emerged from it and floated in front of them.

Since the name of this level is Easy Questions, I'm afraid these parchments are the key.

The players took down the parchment in front of them.

Long Muba was no exception. He opened the parchment and found that the most eye-catching part was the rules of this level.

[For each correct answer to the following ten questions, your life span will increase by ten years; if you answer any one of them correctly, the life span penalty for leaving the fog game will be offset.]

Long Muba’s eyes widened.

This reward is nothing short of luxurious.

There are ten questions. If you answer just one of them correctly, you can offset half of the life penalty for leaving the game. If you answer all of them correctly, you can even get a hundred years of life, which means your life span will be doubled.

Long Muba immediately became interested, but when he saw the question, he was immediately filled with questions...

[1. Please try to arrange the order of mind, soul, consciousness and thinking, and explain the connection between them. ]

[2. How do you understand the relationship between consciousness and subconsciousness? ]

[3. How do you define your own existence? ]

【4. Please try to describe the principle of ability awakening. 】

【5. Clarify the relationship between your own personality, concepts and ability awakening.】

……

After reading the ten questions, Long Muba felt speechless.

Mind, soul, consciousness and thinking, what are these?

The existence of the self? I am not a philosophy student.

There is also the principle of awakening abilities later...

I'm afraid that even if we ask people from the scientific research department to answer this question, they may not be able to answer it.

The awakening of abilities is currently tentatively considered to be the impact of the Mist Game on humans, and is seen as a mutation caused by abnormal events.

In this case, the current approach of the Exception Handling Bureau is often to treat it as a black box. Without understanding the principles behind it, they summarize the rules, allowing more people to safely enter the black box, control variable factors, and increase the success rate of awakening.

Even the people in the scientific research department do not have a unified explanation as to the principle behind this.

Everyone's attitude is very consistent: no matter how it was done, just use it first.

Now that they have just awakened to such questions, who can answer them?

Just when Long Muba felt that it was unreasonable, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a crack in the middle of the parchment in front of him. Looking inside along the crack, it seemed to be a towering library...

Long Muba rubbed his eyes, and when he looked again, the crack in the middle of the parchment had disappeared.

He looked up and found that he was in a magnificent library without knowing when.

A large number of bookshelves were neatly arranged in front of his eyes, stacked up layer by layer, reaching endlessly and extending into a hollow black dot.

The bookshelf is densely packed with books of various shapes and names, such as "Consciousness Projection: Exploration Beyond the Body", "Secrets in the Mist", "Psychic Exploration and Perception", and "Study of Multidimensional Creatures"...

These books were piled in front of Long Muba. He could vaguely feel a strong sense of oppression coming from these books. This feeling even reminded him of the powerlessness he felt when facing Wang Yu and Li Ting before.

It's the difference in rank.

Is there actually a gap in rank between me and these books?

He took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the smell of incense...

The parchment scroll floated in front of him.

The next moment, a long table appeared in front of him, with a feather pen and a parchment scroll on it.

I don't know when, he had already sat on the chair.

An epiphany suddenly occurred to Long Muba's mind: Does this level want me to look up information in the library and complete the questions?

But... How long will it take to finish reading this densely packed book...

He tried to summon a book called "Analysis of Astrology", but found that the content of the book was in another language.

He tried to pick up another book, the name of the book was "The Way to Tranquility". This time, as he observed, the words on the book naturally twisted and changed into Chinese characters that he could understand. His eyes were attracted by these words. The words were refined and obscure, but Long Muba was fascinated by them.

But when he woke up again, he found himself unconscious on the long table, with a long bloodstain on his wrist. The "Way of Tranquility" that had drunk blood was now lying quietly beside his hand, with a little scarlet on the corners, just like the residue at the corners of the mouth after eating.

Long Muba’s scalp tingled…

When I picked up the black card, I found that I had lost a year of my life...

Dangerous, vast, and confusing, this is how Long Muba feels at the moment.

Long Muba felt very anxious when he thought that he would need to find the answers to ten questions in this vast library, which might take several months or even years.

If only there was a shortcut to get this done quickly.

Just as Long Muba was thinking this, a pocket watch appeared on the table next to him.

It was like it had always been there, and Long Muba only noticed it when he had such a thought.

Long Muba picked up the pocket watch and looked at it carefully.

The surface of the pocket watch is a contrasting red and black, and the case has layers of petal textures that protrude slightly outward, giving it a soft and elegant feel.

Open the watch cover and you will see an exquisite dial with a circle of slender symbols around the outside of the dial.

Although Long Muba didn't recognize them at all, he could clearly understand the meaning of these symbols.

"Time will advance everything..."

Long Muba whispered this sentence softly, and the next moment, he pressed the button on the dial with great sincerity.

The hands of the pocket watch moved gently.

Click.

Densely packed words suddenly appeared in the blank answer section below question number 4 on the parchment scroll.

At the same time, a large amount of knowledge poured into Long Muba's head.

The severe pain felt as if his brain was squeezed, his vision began to blur, and the pocket watch in front of him even had a double image. The dizzying feeling made Long Muba collapse in the chair, but his right hand was still tightly grasping the pocket watch.

Countless knowledge poured into his mind, occupying his memory and violently interrupting his thinking.

Long Muba felt a panic in his heart. This knowledge was like a surging tide, drowning his consciousness and causing him to feel suffocated, as if he was about to lose control of his own thinking.

As time went by, the feeling of blockage in thinking became less and less, and more and more ideas appeared in his mind.

Long Muba, who didn't like studying, experienced the feeling of having his poor head filled with knowledge.

"So this is what awakening abilities is like... Our abilities are actually replicas of the rules bestowed by the world..."

Long Muba was somewhat excited. He knew the source of his ability, and from a higher perspective, he also knew the direction of his ability advancement.

Click.

Long Muba looked down at the pocket watch in his hand. The hands of the pocket watch just turned a circle, and the next moment, all the knowledge sank into silence in Long Muba's mind.

Although he knew that he knew this knowledge, he could not recall even a little bit of it...

He tried hard to recall, but could only feel that it was somewhat familiar. He even had no recollection of what he had just said.

Long Muba felt very uncomfortable.

Vast amounts of knowledge appear and disappear in a hurry, leaving only a few traces to prove that the knowledge once existed.

He clearly remembered the feeling of just piecing the pieces together in his mind and having flashes of inspiration, but now he simply couldn't do it.

It's like a person who can only walk suddenly learns to run, and after a while, suddenly crawls in the same place.

It’s not that there is a change in ability before and after, but after the comparison, the original walking seems as unacceptable as crawling.

Long Muba looked at the words (answered) after the fourth question on the parchment scroll. He couldn’t even remember what he had written.

He could only smile bitterly and mutter, "But the good thing is... at least the question has been answered. A pocket watch that makes your wishes come true?"
