Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1396: Reproduced exit
When you start blaming human nature, you have forgotten the existence of elephants.
Lin Sanjiu looked at her hands and recited this sentence in her heart over and over again. In the past few days, she had secretly resented her. She felt that these newcomers who had not experienced life and death with her were really unable to withstand the test and revealed their true nature so quickly; but when she was sitting in the corner now, because When she was weak and unable to move, she suddenly felt grateful and thankful: Fortunately, it was these people.
If Han Suiping had not died, or the person who entered the game with her happened to be Mu Xin or even Bohemia, could she guarantee that they would not end up in the same situation? What should she do then?
...Besides, can she avoid it herself?
Man may be such an animal, and can only have goodness in an environment that allows goodness to exist; accusing someone of not being able to remain human to the end is like accusing a certain bacteria of not being able to survive in an environment exceeding 100 degrees— —This is not an environment in which it can survive. She should be lucky, and she happens to be a heat-resistant bacteria, but heat-resistant bacteria still have limits.
Thinking deeply, maybe humans themselves are very aware of this, so they have to spend thousands of years trying to move from barbarism to civilization bit by bit?
Ji Shanqing's back has been leaning next to Nuyue; she glanced at the timer on the wall and saw that six hours had passed. As soon as her eyes touched the sentence next to the timing number, she quickly moved away.
"Please give a reasonable explanation within one hour as to why the farmland was damaged."
According to Sibaan, this game did not give up and continued its "thinking training". Yugi should have also realized that they now remembered the existence of the elephant; after remembering the culprit who put them in this environment, the resentment, dissatisfaction and hostility between them in the past few days were all suppressed. Go down and gradually disappear.
"It's up to me to answer this question," Sparan insisted despite being hurt and weak, "Don't think about it."
At the end of the hour, his answer was: "Force majeure like natural disasters destroyed farmland."
When he answered, he would naturally be heard by others in the room, but after Lin Sanjiu thought about it for a moment, he realized that this answer had been specially considered by Sibaan. He did not directly say "natural disasters", because such an answer once again followed the will of the game and made everyone ignore the existence of the elephant; while "force majeure" such as natural disasters met the requirements of the question, but could make people immediately Thinking of the elephants that took human lives one after another.
The question reluctantly disappeared. She thought there would be an intensive bombardment of questions, but unexpectedly it stopped - after so long, the wall was still empty.
The elephant took two steps slowly, poked its trunk into the empty food trough for a while, and then stopped. It turned around, and everyone's eyes turned left and right, as if they wanted to look at each person's face carefully for a while, looking for the reason why they hadn't paid their taxes today.
In fact, it is impossible for them to pay taxes anymore: the tax collector Jian Sheng is now lying next to Sibaan, breathing shallowly and quickly, and he doesn’t know when he will die.
"If you can survive until tonight," Lin Sanjiu told him, "I will give you three food **** and let you live until tomorrow. If you can survive until the end of the game, we will give you three food balls." You treat."
Asking Ji Shanqing to read Nu Yue's data is already a huge burden for him; after discussing with Li Bao for a while, Lin Sanjiu has realized that letting him also read Jiansheng The data is not as simple and easy as it sounds - at this moment, Ji Shanqing is only a thin ray of consciousness of his body, and it is also a consciousness that is about to run out of energy. If he disappears because the burden is too heavy, then Han Suiping and Nu Yue will also disappear together.
Miraculously, Jian Sheng survived for another six hours after hearing this promise - although no one, including Lin Sanjiu himself, who was unwilling to face this, expected him to survive.
Speaking of which, this is also a knock-on effect of the damage caused by elephants.
"We have to start the strike immediately." Now Sbaan no longer needs to use the excuse of "restoring farmland". Everyone knows that deliberately avoiding the production of food **** is to starve someone - he slowly The ground said: "...the farmland has been damaged and the tax collector has been lost. We can no longer continue to accumulate food balls."
Although many of the sixty-four food **** were crushed, you can still eat them as long as you collect all the broken ones. The problem is that if intervening children are included, they need 18 food **** a day, and the food storage is only enough for them to last for three days - a lot of food **** short of the four to five days estimated by Ji Shanqing.
After thinking about it, the only one who deserves to die is Jian Sheng, right?
It's interesting to say that everything the elephants do in this room will eventually trigger a life-and-death battle among themselves.
No one protested against Lin Sanjiu's promise. Apart from the fact that they remembered that the elephant was the source of the problem, there may be another reason - everyone, including Lin Sanjiu himself, realized that It is impossible for students to survive today without first aid measures. If he and Nuyue didn't die, they would really be in trouble.
Even she knew that this was more of a hospice than a promise.
Although Jian Sheng was so tenacious, so tenacious that everyone was worried, he finally died silently at around ten o'clock in the night. Sibaan reached out and closed his eyelids for him, sighing.
"If he succeeds," Sibaan suddenly whispered something that seemed irrelevant, "he will become a hero or a great man in this room."
No one responded to him for a while. Both Host and Lu Hua seemed to have woken up as if enlightened, and they didn't speak much now; while Ji Shanqing was still reading the data of Nu Yue - the latter's breathing was getting lower and weaker. . Only Lin Sanjiu and him looked at each other from half a room across the room and smiled softly.
The first day of the strike ended with the death of Nu Yue and Jiansheng.
Since they were suddenly forced to go on strike, everyone had already eaten one or two rations for the day, so the sixty-four food **** were consumed from the afternoon of the day of the strike - in this way, It gave them half a day more time. According to the calculation of the gift package, they could last for almost five days; with this unsteady sense of peace of mind, they ushered in the second day of the strike period amidst weakness, exhaustion and hunger.
The elephant looks the same as usual. It is still walking slowly in the room, stopping from time to time to search for rations in the food trough. There is no sign of weakness yet.
On the contrary, after being silent for a period of time, the writing on the wall finally began to reappear.
"There is currently a vacancy for the position of tax collector. Those who are interested in taking on additional responsibilities are encouraged to take the initiative to register as candidates."
This sentence hung alone on the wall for a long time, and all it got was the silence of everyone turning a blind eye.
"The new tax collector enjoys a 20% share of the food balls."
Still no one responded. Everyone was sitting and lying down, their eyes scanning the elephant in the center of the room from time to time - everyone was waiting for it to show signs of weakness.
"Those who reclaim farmland will receive ownership of the new farmland. Once the farmland is doubled, the output will also be doubled." Under this new sentence that appeared on the wall, measures on how to reclaim farmland were densely written.
In response, Lin Sanjiu just wanted to sneer. After three people died, they finally reached the stage of fighting for their lives with the elephant. At this time, they were suddenly told that there was a way to reclaim farmland and double their output, which only made them more determined not to cooperate.
On the third day of the strike, the elephants' movements decreased. It no longer wanders away, and more often than not, it just stands motionless next to the food trough; the elephant trunk sweeps back and forth in the trough with increasing frequency, and its movements seem to become more and more impatient—— Its howling several times startled everyone.
...The writing on the wall never stopped, but everyone closed their eyes. The result of eating only the minimum survival limit for three consecutive days was that no one had the energy to say even a single word. Lin Sanjiu finally understood why in the documentaries she had watched before, those starving African children would let flies land on their faces without patting them - because all energy, energy, and even consciousness gradually dissipated into the darkness. the trend of. Everything in the outside world ~IndoMTL.com~ is simply disconnected from them.
In this game, various effects are obviously accelerated and weighted; according to their physical fitness, they should not have reached the edge of survival limit so quickly. On the fourth day of the strike period, Lin Sanjiu was groggy more often than clear-headed; the day became easier because most of the day passed as soon as he opened and closed his eyes.
She really didn’t understand how Sibaan managed to survive. Not only did he survive, he even still assumed the responsibility of supervision and distribution - each person could only get three food balls, and he had to hand over more food **** to prevent everyone from eating all the rations due to lack of willpower.
When the strike period finally came to the fifth day, the elephant slowly moved. It had been standing in the corner, as if intending to conserve its strength by remaining motionless. It had been like this for several days, and everyone almost stopped paying attention to it - so when they heard the muffled sound of the elephant's feet hitting the ground, everyone Everyone opened their eyes.
The elephant took a staggering step, and when it was about to take the second step, it finally tilted due to lack of strength and crashed to the ground. The room trembled a few times amid the loud noise, and smoke and dust flew into the air; Lin Sanjiu gathered strength and managed to sit up, watching the elephant's dense eyes blink a few times, and finally slowly fade away as it fell into coma. Closed. Countless white eyeballs and black eye kernels finally disappeared from the room.
Sibaan’s eyes fell on the wall behind Lin Sanjiu.
"When it is invisible... there is an exit." He said hoarsely, "Look."
