Higher Human Advancement Regulations

As far as I can see, there is a huge turntable with a diameter of about five meters. There is a circular high platform in the center of the turntable. An old man is sitting on it. A long pointer protrudes from the bottom of the high platform.

Behind the turntable is an empty dark space, like a starless night in winter.

The old man was poking at the pointer with a cane, his hands folded, and he was staring at the blooming with displeasure.

"What god are you walking?"

Shengkai came back to her senses, but she wasn't in the mood to talk to him.

In the last secret room, as soon as Sheng Kai saw Wen Renxiao's necklace was broken, he felt a burst of light and shadow enveloping them, and when the light and shadow dispersed again, he came here.

From the looks of it, he was not sent back to Paradise Lost, but directly entered a new audit chamber.

But this time the secret room is quite different from the previous ones.

The old man, the NPC of this secret room, explained:

"You guys won't have to go back to the Lost Paradise temporarily after you come out of the dead end. After this review is over, we will settle the settlement together."

At the end, the corner of the old man's mouth twitched into a slight smile, and added:

"If you have your life to go out."

Blooming is the first person to come to the turntable.

The turntable was evenly divided into ten sectors, and he stood on one of them, with a photo floating in front of him.

But now the photo is far away, Shenghua can't see the contents of the photo clearly, only the shape of an animal can be vaguely seen.

The other fan shapes are no different from where the blooms are, except that there are a few scattered pieces with nothing on them.

He tried to take a few steps to the side, but unexpectedly, he was blocked by an invisible wall.

Shengkai stared at the old man in silence, the latter was very uncomfortable by the stare, stared at the pointer with a cane a few times, said:

"Before the others arrive, I can give you a benefit."

The old man looks cunning, and is a bit different from the NPCs he met before Blooming.

He was sitting in a high position, and when he was looking at Blooming, he only slightly raised his eyes, not looking directly at him.

Blossom blinked.

The old man snorted coldly:

"Why don't you ask me about my benefits?"

Blooming with downcast eyes and a smile:

"What are the benefits you give?"

"..."

The old man was so choked that he couldn't speak, and he held back a sentence after a while:

"Why are you like this?"

There is only one person standing alone on the turntable, Shengkai, who leans back against the transparent wall, with a half-smile:

"I remember, I have a...

My friend, I died in your turntable game. "

Shenghua said slowly, "How long have you been here?

How many more people must be killed to get to Paradise Lost?

Do you want me to help you. "

"you……"

With the return of memory, Shengkai finally felt that the turntable in front of him seemed familiar.

This sense of familiarity is not because he has been here before, but because of his friend.

At that time, there were four people who came to Paradise Lost from Mars, except for Zhuang Han and Shengkai, the other two were comrades in the Six Armies and Three Teams who had fought with him through life and death.

At that time, their every move was watched by the sky, so naturally no news could be found.

Not only could it not be detected, but in the dangerous Paradise Lost, the two comrades eventually died in the secret room one after another.

One of them died right in front of Blooming.

Shengkai remembered that the man had just grown up and was assigned to the Sixth Army and the Third Team as soon as he graduated from school. At that time, the military was recruiting volunteers from all over the league, but there were very few responders.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but that child was very paranoid, and he did not regret coming here until he died.

When he died, he still held a rotary pointer in his hand, and tremblingly took out a booklet from his arms, on which it was written beautifully:

Paradise Lost Records Report.

It was just seven words, but it looked like it was plated with gold in the sun, almost burning his eyes.

Zhuang Han was also going to die, but Shengkai gave her his totem and saved her life.

What happened later...

Blooming can't remember.

Zhuang Han said that he once lived in the Garden of Eden, so if Tianmu didn't break the rules, he might indeed have passed the ten audits.

However, regarding the things in the Garden of Eden, the only thing that can be matched in Shengkai's mind is the memory that he once thought did not belong to him.

Could it be that to go to the Garden of Eden is to become another person again?

And in the space covered by the sky, the most important thing is the totem.

Sheng Kai paused, and took off the pocket watch hanging around his neck.

Wen Renxiao's totem...

Could it be that necklace?

He closed his eyes, trying to slowly exhale the depression in his chest, but during his breathing, he felt more and more a fire that could not go up and down in his lungs, burning him out of his mind.

Blossom gripped the pocket watch tightly.

The old man turned his back to him, as if he didn't want to talk to this young man with sharp eyes anymore.

Soon, more figures gradually appeared in the fan-shaped area above the turntable.

At a glance, they are all acquaintances.

On the turntable, looking counterclockwise from the blooming direction, there are Mu Li, Shu He, Nie Zheng, Wen Renxiao, Shao Ziyu, Zhuang Han, and Yan Sichao.

Each of them occupies a space, among which there is an empty space between Nie Zheng and Shu He, and there is also an empty space between Yan Sichao and Sheng Kai.

They can see each other, but what they say is cut off.

When everyone stood still, the old man nodded with great satisfaction. With one hand, he tapped the center of the turntable with his cane. After a slight vibration, the circular ground he was on sank to the position where it was close to the turntable. .

"The game is on."

The old man said:

"Look at the photos in front of you first."

When the circular ground sank, the pointer seemed to have moved slightly.

Sheng Kai took down the photo with one hand, glanced at it casually, and all his attention fell on Wen Renxiao who was directly opposite him.

The distance between them was too far, Shengkai couldn't see Wen Renxiao's expression clearly, he could only see him lowering his head slightly, carefully observing the photo in his hand.

Shengkai's gaze was scorching, Wen Renxiao didn't even notice it, and looked at the photo in his hand over and over again, as if all his attention was on that unremarkable photo.

The old man said:

"Have you read it yet?"

Wen Renxiao raised his head instantly.

With just one glance, Shengkai noticed something strange about Wen Renxiao.

The man still has those green pupils, like a lake in the sky washed by rain.

However, at this moment, the surface of the lake seemed to be frozen, and a hazy mist rose above the lake, covering all the emotions in Wen Renxiao's eyes behind the mist.

Suddenly, the eyes of the two collided unexpectedly.

Shengkai shrank his pupils, and subconsciously took a step forward, but Wen Renxiao's eyes moved away early...

This look is too strange, Shenghua thought.

But Wen Renxiao's neck was empty, and the broken necklace was also missing.

When he saw the bloom, it was as if he saw a stranger, his eyes flicked across the water.

The old man smiled sullenly and said:

"But it's useless to look at it. The photos were not chosen by you."

His voice was low and high, without the hoarseness of the old man. Instead, when he talked about excitement, the sharp tone could make people catch a little mechanical sound.

This made Blooming think of Tianmu.

The old man said:

"The rules are very simple. After the turntable starts to run, I will stop it. Whoever the pointer points to will enter the secret room of the turntable first."

Bloom raised his hand.

The old man squinted his eyes and ignored it.

Blooming persevered, picked up the pocket watch and knocked it on the transparent wall.

Old man:

"No. C0002, what do you want to do?"

The sound of talking with your companions will be separated by a transparent wall, but the NPC's will not.

Shengkai received a response, and while waving in response to the gazes cast by the crowd, said:

"I have a few questions I would like to ask you."

Before the old man answered, Shengkai continued:

"One, what is the turntable chamber?

Second, is the dial pointer random?

Third, what should I do if I transfer to a certain person repeatedly or fail to transfer to a certain person? "

These questions may seem unimportant, but each one is difficult for the elderly to answer.

Shengkai was just probing, and didn't expect the old man to really answer him, but the man just gave him a hard look and explained:

"The turntable secret room is related to the photos, the pointer is random, the situation of the third question will not appear, and the rules will not allow it."

"That's not right."

Bloom said:

"Since it is random, there will be a third situation, unless you intervene artificially."

From the corner of the eye, Sheng Kai saw Shao Ziyu also say something to the old man, and the latter's expression suddenly became ugly.

Leaning on crutches, the old man bluntly made a series of beeps on the round platform.

The turntable moved amidst Blooming's voice of doubt.

original……

It's not the pointer that moves.

The speed of the turntable was not very fast, but the inertia caused the person standing on it to stagger suddenly, and bloomed to support his body, seeing Wen Renxiao looking at him from a distance.

The man watched the blooming flowers calmly for a long while before looking at the spinning roulette.

It turned around slowly a few times, and finally pointed at Mu Li.

Mu Li clenched his fists and took a few steps back.

The photo in the same fan-shaped area with him emitted a burst of light at the same time, and a moment later, an ice sculpture appeared where the photo was originally floating.

The old man stood on a high place and motioned for Mu Li to fetch it.

Mu Li frowned, hesitated for a while, and finally took off the ice sculpture reluctantly.

At the same time, a beam of light erupted from another part of the turntable, and everyone hurriedly looked over, only to see that the photo in front of Shao Ziyu also turned into a real thing.

It is a white candle.

The moment the real thing appeared, Mu Li and Shao Ziyu disappeared on the turntable together.

what happened?

Didn't the pointer only point to Mu Li?

Why did Shao Ziyu also make noise?

The number of grids on the turntable is even, and the number of people is exactly eight. Shengkai guesses that the two empty grids on the turntable may be functional areas, such as turning again in Monopoly, or staying for one step, but it is not yet possible draw conclusions.

The only thing that can be concluded is that people with an even number, except for two byes, should be in groups of two.

but……

How exactly is it grouped here?
