Ten Days End

"Never get promoted?"

Zhang Qiang opened his mouth wide after hearing this.

"What do you mean..." he asked in disbelief, "If a "Zodiac" can never get promoted... then why would he choose to become a "Zodiac"? What kind of logic is this...? What is he doing it for?"

Aries thought for a while and said, "For "absolute safety". As long as you don't violate the rules, no matter how many times you die in the interview room, you will always be resurrected. This is "safety." "

"Ridiculous... Ridiculous..." Zhang Qiang frowned slightly, "Isn't this putting the cart before the horse... This is not called "absolute safety" at all? It seems like he found a place to hide himself... If he is stuck in the room all the time... then..."

"Listen to me." Aries said while glancing at the clock with his peripheral vision, "This whole city is a huge scam. Everyone says that "Zodiac" can get out after becoming "Heaven", but the truth is that no one can become "Heaven". "

As soon as the voice fell, before Zhang Qiang and I could speak, the sheep behind him was a little stunned.

"What are you kidding... Aries..." The sheep said in a trembling voice, "Are you also lying to us with what you said now?"

"This sentence is not." Aries said, "And everything I say next is not."

"What do you mean..." The sheep's eyes flickered, "If you are not lying, it means that our highest level is "district level"?"

"Yes." Aries nodded.

The sheep paused for a long time, stretched out his hand and grabbed Aries' arm: "You left a way for the two of them, what about me...? I don't want to be a "district level" all my life."

"You, I have my own arrangements." Aries said, "As long as these two "participants" disappear, you will naturally become a "district level". At that time, you can wait for me at the "district level". As long as you can live to that day, I will take you another way. ”

Sheep felt something was wrong after hearing this: "Wait a minute... Aries, what do you mean by "wait for you"...? After these two people disappear, won't you also become a "district level"? ”

"No, not now." Aries shook his head, "I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I can't become a "district level." ”

"I can't understand..." Sheep swallowed his saliva, "You are now the "interviewer", after everyone in the room disappears... you can still choose "not to become a district level"? ”

"Don't ask this." Aries sighed and said, "I have a lot of things to deal with, and I'm in a hurry now. If you all agree, this may be the last time we meet here."

"You... you wait a minute..." Sheep's eyes were a little nervous, "You kid won't betray me, right? Now that we have killed people and dogs, you want to play disappearing with me?"

"No, Sheep, listen to me. "Aries put his hand on the sheep's shoulder, and then whispered, "Now I give you the first piece of advice. When you become a "ground level", you must set up your own playground in a very remote and deserted place. Never think about killing people, and try to delay time."

"Delay time...?"

Aries nodded, and then said: "If my guess is correct, there will be no wise leaders in this city for a long time. Even if new people unexpectedly establish organizations, they don't know the truth of this world. I'm not sure what they will do. They may start hunting "Zodiac" like other cities. At that time, your situation will be dangerous. You also know... In this kind of place, if the "leader" goes crazy, the rest of the people may also go crazy with him. "

"Minnow effect"..." I blurted out.

"What?" Aries looked at me.

"I... I said it's the "minnow effect." "I whispered, "This view is like a law theorem I have seen before. ”

Aries thought for a while and said, "It's interesting. Can you tell me about it?"

"Uh..." I didn't expect that someone like Aries would have knowledge that he didn't know, so I could only say seriously, "The "minnow effect" means that minnows usually choose to live in groups because they are weak individuals, and the strong ones are the leaders of the school. If a strong minnow is artificially disabled, the fish will lose self-control and its actions will become disordered, but other minnows will still follow blindly as before and follow him in disorder. "

Aries nodded thoughtfully, and then muttered to himself in a low voice: "Yes... this is good... this is simply too good... engraving the short effect name in the subconscious mind is more convenient to use than complete knowledge..."

"What...?" I didn't understand, and smiled.I was slightly stunned.

"Nothing." Aries stared at me, "Yan..."

"Zhichun." I said.

"Yan Zhichun. Where did you see these laws and theorems?"

"Uh..." I tried to recall, "Basically in various scattered books, economics, management, psychology, logical thinking, game theory, etc..."

"Okay, I know." Aries nodded, as if he was thinking about something in his mind.

At this time, I felt that Aries was even more terrifying.

In order to keep up with the thinking of the strong, I forced myself to read two books a week and then write down all the knowledge that was useful to me, just to make myself know more and be able to deal with more difficult situations.

And all the laws and effects in the book also brought many inspirations to my life.

But if Aries has not read so many books... It can only mean that he is different from people like me who work hard and need "knowledge" as a weapon. His thinking is naturally strong.

I also understood this truth after I grew up. Some people learn other people's methods from books to make cars, while some people can really "build cars behind closed doors."

The sheep on the side didn't seem to be listening to what we were saying. He just reached out and scratched the mask on his face. He still had an expression of disbelief, just like the last time I saw him.

"Aries, how... do you know so many secrets of this place?" he asked.

"Don't ask me about that." Aries stretched out his hand to interrupt him, "You just need to know... whether it is the final task of "Zodiac" "Kill 3,600 people" or the final task of "Participants" "Collect 3,600 Tao", none of them can be completed, otherwise there will be a disaster. "

"We can't even collect "Tao"...?" I asked again.

"Yes." Aries nodded, "It does take a long time to explain, I will try to be brief."

What Aries said next once again exceeded my expectations.
