"I, I didn't mean it."

Song Shude was in a panic!

But who knew that when this guy got excited, he subconsciously raised the muzzle of his gun.

Liu Ziyun had no choice but to press the muzzle of the gun with a little more force.

"As I said, this is a weapon of destruction. Remember, don't point the gun at others."

Facing this very nervous butcher, Liu Ziyun felt helpless and had to teach him step by step.

Fortunately, after Song Shude's incident, others fumbled with their guns and became cautious.

However, just a short while later, the sudden voice frightened many people's hands to tremble again.

"All trialists, please pay attention. All trialists, please pay attention... There are still 30 seconds left before entering this trial. Please prepare yourself..."

This is the sound coming from the Rubik's Cube.

Upon hearing this unfamiliar voice, the already solemn atmosphere in the newlyweds' room suddenly became tense.

30 seconds.

They are about to enter the world that the old people say is full of danger.

In the direction of the bar, a few so-called old people were already putting things into their consciousness backpacks.

On the other hand, newcomers are also following the same example.

But along with the busyness, there was a trembling and rough breathing.

Sure enough, although this new batch of newcomers have pretty good mental qualities, they are still human beings after all.

Seeing this, Liu Ziyun, who had just demonstrated the firearms for them, wanted to say something.

But before he could speak, Tang Jiumin came over at some point, picked up a notebook and patted it into his arms.

Liu Ziyun subconsciously took it and opened it, only to see that it was full of short lines, solid symbols, and letters.

After turning a few pages, he suddenly showed a clear look. He glanced at the old members at the bar who had also received the notebook, and immediately put it in his consciousness backpack.

"Countdown is 3 seconds, all testers, please be ready..."

Soon, as everyone made final preparations, the countdown to the trial officially ended.

Regardless of whether they were mentally prepared or not, everyone's consciousness sank in the next second.

Sudden chaos immediately surrounds consciousness

From awake to dark.

From darkness to confusion.

I don’t know how long it took, or was it just a moment?

Suddenly, the chaos receded like a tide.

Accompanied by a thrill.

Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun were the first to open their eyes.

As soon as they woke up, the two of them looked around at the same time.

All 24 people were together.

They were lying together on a huge raft, which could only hold them.

The huge raft was floating alone on the water.

far away

As far as the eye can see, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

They are the needle.

While Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun were looking around, other people who were sleeping on the raft were waking up one after another.

"Where is this...?"

"have no idea……"

24 people, 24 pairs of eyes, looked around together at this time.

Soon, someone noticed something unusual here.

"Look, there's something wrong with the raft..."

With a shout, everyone looked over.

At the edge of the raft, Zeng Xuebin was holding a scrap of paper and throwing it into the water.

However, an incredible scene occurred.

As soon as the scraps of paper fell into the water, they 'moved' quickly and disappeared from everyone's sight after a while.

The surrounding area was obviously like stagnant water, even calmer than a quiet lake.

But this confetti?

Are they moving?

Yes, this raft is actually moving!

"what happened?!"

Many people on the side quickly looked into the water.

The very nervous Song Shude even reached out to grab it.

But it would be fine if we didn't catch it, but if we caught it, more problems would arise.

"Oh my god... why is this water dark red? It can't be blood."

Blood?

Beside the raft, Tang Jiumin frowned.

When he first woke up, he checked the water.

Although it is not clear, it is as normal as before life.

But at this time, Song Shude's cuffs and hands were soaked in dark red liquid.

Weird. Very weird.

According to common sense, water is clear and transparent. Even if it is not, it cannot be as dark red as it is now.

"hiss……"

Everyone let out gasps.

Yu Jiaojiao on the side jumped up in shock.

But just as she was about to stand up, she stumbled and fell back.

"I, I have no strength, what's going on?"

This sentence immediately attracted the attention of others.

"I also……"

"Same, me too."

The noise on the raft suddenly sounded.

Tang Jiumin and Liu Ziyun looked at each other, but they were not surprised.

Benefiting from trial after trial, they checked their physical condition as early as when they woke up.

Feeling exhausted, a very weak state.

When he first woke up, Tang Jiumin couldn't even get up.

This feeling has not gone away even now.

Next to him, Liu Ziyun saw everyone's state and spoke at the right time.

"How do you feel? Are there any signs? My current physical condition may mean that I am not even strong enough."

Tang Jiumin shook his head silently. He had no clue at all and could only look around in the distance.

"Blood, blood..."

In the middle of the raft, Yu Jiaojiao was sitting on the side, but now she kept moving her butt inside.

"Don't panic, don't jump. This is a raft, it will sink! This isn't blood, it should. It should just be something weird..."

On the other side, Zhang Tiandao's voice sounded as Yu Jiaojiao became more and more panicked.

As a dabbler Taoist priest, Zhang Tiandao still has some eyesight and can tell at a glance that water is not blood.

However, despite what he said, everyone's mood on the raft became even worse.

Blood is fine

Weird stuff.

This is worse than blood.

The mood on the raft was getting worse and worse, but Zhang Tiandao reluctantly sat up and knelt down.

I saw this man, in front of everyone, starting to talk to himself.

"There is no Amitabha Buddha, gods from all walks of life, Taoism, Buddhism, ghosts and gods from whatever origin."

"The younger disciple Zhang Tiandao doesn't have any evil thoughts. He is just making trouble, but just hope that he can survive this disaster safely..."

Looking at this scene, everyone's hearts sank.

For a moment, there was silence on the raft. Everyone subconsciously moved closer to the center of the raft, and a bunch of people crowded together.

In this water...

Will there be ghosts? Just like Zhang Tiandao said.

Newcomers with good mental qualities have even taken out their weapons and been on guard.

It seems like the next second, something dirty will appear around you

Zhang Tiandao's chatter continued, and several pieces of paper torn off by Gao Ting fell into the water and disappeared one by one.

really.

The essentially dark red water surface was strangely devoid of any movement, but the raft was indeed moving rapidly.

This situation is even more bizarre and makes people's hearts beat faster.

But strangely, Liu Ziyun, who was usually used to maintaining order, did not speak out.

He and Tang Jiumin seemed to have sensed something and were looking into the distance.

Soon, their actions attracted the attention of others.

It turned out that at some point in the direction of the raft, a silhouette vaguely appeared.

It is like hiding in the gray fog, looming.

If you don't look for it deliberately, it's even harder to notice.

But soon, as the raft continued to move forward, the outline became clearer and clearer.

It can be vaguely seen that it is an island.

And that's when the outline appears and the island appears.

Deep in everyone's consciousness, the content of the mission issued by the system is transmitted.

"Trial mission: begin."

"About to enter the trial scene area: Howling Island"

"Trial time: seven days."

"Trial mission goal: death."

"Scenario rules unlocked: Reduce the penalty for leaking secrets on Disaster Island, and slightly lower the red line for the penalty for leaking secrets on Disaster Island."

What?

die?

What's the meaning?

Let them die?

For a moment, the newcomers on the raft looked strange. Liu Ziyun was completely dumbfounded and quickly looked at Tang Jiumin.

Unexpectedly, Tang Jiumin's expression at this time was not natural. He frowned and said nothing, and felt a little confused inside.

What are you doing in this mission?

Go to the island and die?

This mission is to let them die directly? ? ?

On one side, Zhang Tiandao was kneeling on the raft and kept muttering: "It's outrageous, it's too outrageous."

"What do you think?" Liu Ziyun was a little anxious.

Weird, really weird.

The first time he encountered a mission that asked them to die, he really couldn't think of what to do except asking Tang Jiumin for help.

But Tang Jiumin shook his head and made a joke:

"First of all, it's impossible for us to get rid of ourselves with guns, right?"

"Trials like to play word games. Death is not necessarily what we think, or everything is different from our habitual thinking."

"The kind of things involved here cannot be explained by science, let alone some rules during life."

"What we see, hear, check, think, judge, and feel may all be false, wrong, fictitious, and distorted."

"Don't be sad, think about the good news. The mission is not intended to kill us directly, but to let us play a death game."

"According to its habit, it will give us time to do things."

"There is nothing on the raft. It means we are about to enter a trial scene. At least it means we are not in danger yet."

"What I care more about is the last sentence. They obviously attach great importance to the issue of leaks and are not allowed to disclose everything, but here, why are the requirements lowered?"

Facing Liu Ziyun's inquiry, Tang Jiumin said a lot in one breath, and then fell into deep thought.

Next to him, Liu Ziyun wanted to help, but facing the current situation, he couldn't think of anything more.

In desperation, he had no choice but to look behind him.

The conversation between the two people was not deliberately lowered, and everyone on the raft could hear it clearly.

Although the atmosphere was horribly depressing, the panic eventually subsided.

However, seeing the island getting closer and closer to them, everyone took action individually as soon as they thought about the content of the mission.

Yefim, Cheng Zhi, and E Sihui took out their equipment early and finished wearing it.

Even if the movements are laborious, no one dares to let go of the feeling of weakness at this time.

Seeing their actions, the newcomers naturally did not fall behind.

Wei Jianye and the hunter brothers had gathered together at some point. They picked up guns and daggers, and were staring in one direction, keeping a distance from others intentionally or unintentionally.

However, except for these three newcomers who already know how to use guns, the performance of others is a bit...

On the side of the raft, Yu Jiaojiao was trembling. She was already weak. Now her hands were shaking violently. The gun kept shaking in her hand and she couldn't use it at all.

Not far from her, Wang Kui was nervous and excited, but at least he was fierce.

He swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, managed to calm down, steadied his pistol, and pointed it at the island.

But it seems I forgot to turn on the insurance.

Behind him, the decorator Pu Daqing was more steady. He not only took out his pistol and turned on the safety. He was also equipped with a belt, and like several old men, he inserted two short knives into the holsters on his waist.

On the other side of the raft, students also gathered together.

After all, they have a teacher, and they quickly enter a state of preparation. They are not as good as the three with guns, but they are decent.

Lu Si and Xiao Rongxiang were not far behind the student group. Although they were nervous, their careers had given them good habits and they would not be so panicked that they could not hold a gun.

behind.

Liang Kewei had already made preparations and was looking around.

The fisherman, on the other hand, looked completely different from the cowardly and timid appearance in the tavern. Not only was he dressed neatly, but he was also on guard while helping his wife prepare.

However, he didn't know whether the object he was wary of was a dirty thing or Liang Kewei, who was looking at him randomly.

And Song Shude?

What's even more surprising is that although he is a little stupid, he is very nervous and has no feeling of panic.

The surrounding atmosphere did not affect him at all, but he dropped a short knife into the water with his hands and feet.

As for the one with the basketball.

It's better than Yu Jiaojiao, but not much.

Because as early as Zhang Tiandao mentioned those things, he almost fainted.

If doctor Lu Si hadn't been afraid of him falling into the water and caught him in time, he would have been dead.

[After thinking about it, I will give you a little spoiler explanation. Starting from this chapter, a lot of foreshadowing has been laid. I will write some things very slowly and carefully. It may look like water, but subjectively, I don’t think about hydrology. Because some things must be written, otherwise the subsequent plot will be revealed, and those readers who watch carefully will find it abrupt. 】
