Chapter 23, Dilemma

After an unknown amount of time, Akutsujin woke up from his daze.

It was pitch black all around, and it was hard to see his fingers. It took Akutsujin a while to calm down before adapting to the dark environment.

There is still some slight pain in the arm, but it no longer affects the movement. It seems that the medicine for the injury has taken effect.

When he wanted to get up, he felt a strong sense of hunger, his limbs suddenly felt sore, and he almost collapsed to the ground again.

"Damn it, how long have I been unconscious!"

Panting tiredly, Akutsujin groped around and finally touched something similar to a door handle.

With a click, a narrow door opened in front of him, and Akutsu barely squeezed out while supporting his nearly exhausted body.

After observing the surrounding environment, I found that I had just come out of a cramped container and was in an endless corridor. There were several old tennis rackets scattered on the ground.

Aku Tsujin subconsciously picked out a relatively complete racket. Although the frame of this racket was still strong, the net cord was already very loose.

Enduring his hunger, Akutsujin walked forward cautiously, constantly recalling what happened before he fell into coma in his mind.

Clearly, there was something wrong with that meal!

Who is doing this? Could it be that woman Rose? It was the food she got.

However, she seemed to have been drugged too.

Could it be the revenge of that black-skinned bastard?

Although Akutsujin has a good mind, reasoning is not his strong point. After thinking for a while, his head felt as big as a bucket.

Unconsciously, he walked thousands of meters in this winding corridor, and the corridor in front of him became wider and wider, from one or two meters at the beginning to gradually extending to more than ten meters.

When Akutsujin walked through a hidden red line, something seemed to be triggered. Suddenly, the walls and ceiling around the corridor made a creaking sound, revealing more than a dozen black holes as big as the mouth of a bowl.

What the hell? Akatsuki subconsciously tightened his grip on the racket.

boom! There was a short sound, and a tennis ball flew out of a black hole, aiming directly at Akutsujin's body.

So fast! The speed of this ball is at least 200KM/h!

Akutsu was wildly blessed in an instant, his reflexes greatly increased, and his racket accurately intercepted the serve.

But the force of the ball was very strong, and the loose string not only failed to pop the ball out, but instead caused the ball to get stuck in the middle of the racket.

Oops! Akatsuki suddenly felt bad.

boom! boom! Two more serves came from the hole, also aimed at Akutsujin, and he quickly dodged to avoid them.

Bang bang bang bang! This time it was four shots. The wild green light in Akutsujin's body flickered and suddenly went out when the tennis ball hit.

Damn it, I just don’t have the strength at this time!

He managed to dodge three shots, but was hit directly in the abdomen by the fourth shot. A sudden burst of pain made Akutsujin almost unable to straighten his back!

Bang bang bang bang...this time it's eight rounds!

Damn it! Is everything over? Akutsujin, unable to dodge, was overwhelmed by more and more tennis balls.

…………

"Aren...Aren..."

A beautiful and mature woman smiled and waved to Akutsujin from a distance.

"Aren...Aren..."

Another innocent and lovely girl walked out from behind this woman.

"Aren...Aren..."

"Aren...Aren..."

Akatsuki reluctantly opened his eyes: "It's so annoying! Stop screaming!"

A surprised voice came from beside me: "Aren, you finally woke up."

Akutsu's pupils regained focus and found that they were Sengoku, Nan, and Dongfang beside him.

They looked sleepy and had no food on their faces. They had been hungry for an unknown amount of time. Moreover, everyone has bruises and bruises, and there are traces of being hit by tennis balls everywhere.

Akutsu came to his senses and felt sore all over his body.

"Did you rescue me?"

Qianshi nodded: "We have been looking for you. Suddenly we heard a noise in this corridor. We rushed in and found you lying on the ground. We worked together to bring you out."

Akutsujin looked around and found that the four of them were in a small room with three doors in front of them.

Nan explained: "These three doors face three corridors, each of which is very dangerous. Dongfang and I woke up in the corridor on the left, Qianshi is on the right, and you should be in the middle. This door has been locked before, and suddenly just now Unlocked. Qianshi guessed that we came in to find you because you woke up."

Akutsujin nodded: "How long have we been trapped here?"

Dongfang glanced at his watch and said, "Nan and I were in coma for about a day, Qianshi was in a coma for a day and a half, and Jin, you were in a coma for two days."

Akutsu sneered: "I ate the most, so I was unconscious the longest, right? It seems like that woman is really up to something!"

Qianshi hesitated: "Are you talking about Rose? Why would she treat us like this? She is the minister's friend. There is no reason!"

"Who knows about this kind of thing? Either they were bribed, or they did one thing in front of them and another behind the scenes. In any case, we are all here, but she is not here. Isn't she the biggest suspect?"

"Hey! Boy, you guessed this wrong." Suddenly a low-pitched English voice came.

"Who?"

"Who is speaking?"

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and found a faint red light flashing somewhere on the ceiling above their heads.

"It's surveillance, he's watching us."

Akutsujin stared at the surveillance camera: "A hidden bastard, how dare you just hide and bark like a dog?"

The voice was not annoyed, he laughed and said: "Young man, didn't your parents teach you to be polite?"

"Bastard! Don't point fingers at me!"

"Hey...it seems like you really need discipline..."

The next moment, a woman's heart-rending screams came from the surveillance camera.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

Qianshi opened his eyes wide: "Is this voice that of Rose? Is Rose in his hands?"

The person on the other side of the surveillance camera snapped his fingers: "Bingo! Originally, I was looking for trouble for this woman. Who made her refuse to surrender to me? You are just unlucky to be involved. Originally, because you are underage, I did not intend to torture you. , wants to sink you directly into the sea, but she begs me to let you go. I have no choice, but I am a good man who respects women and has the spirit of chivalry, so I have to meet this beautiful lady's request and give you a chance. ."     Ajiu Jinyi's eyes were split open: "Bastard! I will definitely kill you!"

"Ahhhhh!!!" Rose's scream came again from the other side.

A laughing voice came from the other side again: "You curse, and I'll torture her once. Let's see how many more times this woman can bear it?"

Akutsujin almost gritted his teeth. He stared at the monitor but stopped speaking.

The scream just now seemed to have exhausted Rose's last strength, and only her faint murmur came: "Please... please... let them go... they... are innocent... and they ...It doesn't matter..."

Qianshi said angrily: "Damn it, what did you do to her? It's a man who is coming for us!"

The voice chuckled and said: "OK, don't say I won't give you a chance. The rules for breaking through the levels have been posted at the entrances of the three corridors. Each person can only choose one level. Every time you break through a level, you will get a key. Then... …”

Suddenly there was a rumbling sound behind the four Akujins, and a platform rose from the ground with three sockets on it.

"Just insert a key and you can leave here and be free."

Qianshi frowned and said, "Is it that simple? Can all of us challenge any corridor together?"

"Yes, the rules of the game are that simple. But there are additional conditions. If you get one key, you can take away this woman's head. If you get two keys, you can take away this woman's head and limbs. If you get three keys, you can Take her away intact. If you can't take her away, I will make it into a specimen and keep it well."

Qianshi said in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"Don't worry, your challenge is very long, a full 12 hours. However, I don't know if this woman can persist for so long. In addition, if the timeout challenge fails, this will be your grave. How about this? Isn't the game interesting? Should you challenge a level together, abandon this woman and live in eternity? Or should you overestimate your capabilities and strive for the three keys, and then silently fail and rot here? I'm looking forward to your choice!"

Knowing that Nan and Dongfang were not good at foreign languages, Qianshi translated in a low voice. After listening to what this man said, Nan was shocked and speechless. This man was just playing with people's hearts!

Recalling the mechanism of the three corridors, the purpose of targeting was too obvious.

The corridor where he and Dongfang woke up was full of traps. If their movements were not in sync with each other, they would be trapped in the traps.

The corridors on the Sengoku side are similar to those on the Akutsujin side, except that the number of tee holes on the Akutsu side is three times that of the Sengoku side. Although there are fewer teeing holes at Sengoku, the balls sent out have a certain degree of randomness. They may be power balls, high-speed balls, spinning balls, or a combination of many.

If four people collectively choose a corridor, their coping abilities will be greatly enhanced, which will greatly increase their success rate.

But that person has made it very clear that everyone can only choose one path. If they want to save Ross, they can only be divided into three teams, and it is impossible to take turns challenging these three corridors.

what to do? What to do?

Are you risking your life to save others? Or give up Rose to save yourself?

This heavy mental pressure continued to accumulate in the hearts of Nan, Dongfang, and Qianshi, making them feel desperate and almost losing strength to breathe.

Akutsujin stood up staggeringly and walked firmly towards the middle door: "Give me this road! Choose another one!"

Dongfang hesitated and said: "Aren, do you want to discuss it further?"

Akutsujin turned around and glared: "What is there to discuss? For me, there is only one choice from the beginning! If you are afraid of death, you can discuss it slowly, but don't fucking choose my path!"

Looking blankly at Aku Tsujin's tall but not tall back, Qianshi smiled in relief.

Banlao, I seem to understand what you told me about the qualities that Akutsu has but I don’t.

Qianshi also stood up and stood in front of the door on the right: "I woke up on this road. Leave this place to me. Don't snatch it from me."

Looking at the two people who had made their choice, Dongfang felt like a lump in his throat, and courage and strength sprang up in his heart.

He gave himself a hard slap, stood in front of the door on the left, and stretched out his hand to Nan next to him: "Partner, why don't you come? This road requires the cooperation of two people. I can't handle it alone."

Nan grinned and high-fived Dongfang: "It's all about this, even if we break into the dragon's pool and the tiger's den together! Don't forget, our goal is to be the No. 1 doubles team in Neon!"

The electronic screen lit up in front of the three doors, and the voice said with interest: "Enter your palm prints into the electronic screen, and the level will be bound to you. How about it, you still have a chance to regret it."

Akujinjin sneered and pressed his palm on the electronic screen. Qianshi and the others ignored the noise of the voice and pressed firmly on the selected door.

"Hey! I really admire your courage to not be afraid of death, and welcome you to hell. You have been hungry for several days, so as a reward, I will let you eat before you go on the road."

Several windows suddenly opened on both sides of the room, and seven or eight pitch-black unknown objects fell down. They fell to the ground with a few squeaks. Waves of stench came from these objects, instantly filling the entire room.

Qianshi quickly covered his mouth and nose in disgust: "What are you doing? Throw shit at us?"

The voice said in surprise: "Shit? Isn't this your favorite sushi in Neon Country? My dog ​​also loves to eat it. I specially share its dog food with you. You're welcome, just enjoy it slowly."

Then, the voice stopped answering.

"This bastard is just humiliating us!"

Qianshi was still furious, but saw Akutsu walking to these unknown objects, frowning and picking them up.

"Aren, you...you don't really want to eat it, do you?"

"Is there any other choice? No matter what level that guy arranges for us, in this hungry state, you don't really think you have a chance to succeed, do you?"

Afterwards, Akutsujin stuffed the unknown object directly into his mouth, chewed it twice, and the stench instantly erupted in his mouth. His eyes immediately turned red, and veins popped out on his temples. But he managed not to vomit and swallowed the stuff.

Qianshi's eyebrows jumped wildly as he looked at it, and he picked up a piece of it. After struggling for a long time, he closed his eyes and stuffed the piece into his mouth.

Qianshi covered his mouth tightly, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it alive.

He showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Although I don't know what ingredients are in it, the main ingredient is indeed rice."

Nan and Dongfang each held a lump in their hands, and were so smoked by the lump that they shed tears.

"I can't do it, Dongfang, please help me."

"Me too, let's help."

"Okay, I'll count to three."

"One...two...three...ugh!!!"

The two of them acted in tacit agreement at the same time, stuffing the thing into each other's mouth, and covering it tightly to prevent the other person from spitting out.

It seems that he has the hatred of killing his father and seizing his wife.

In this way, several people struggled to eat up the pile of things.

After digesting for half an hour, Akutsujin stood up and moved his stiff body.

"Is it an illusion? I feel that my physical strength has recovered quickly."

Qianshi responded: "It's not an illusion, I feel the same way."

Akutsu adjusted his condition: "That woman can't hold on for long. Let's set off now while we have enough energy!"

Nan encouraged: "Come on! We must get out alive together!"

The next moment, the three doors opened simultaneously, and four determined figures disappeared through the doors.

 I guess everyone has seen through it, I can already imagine what everyone will complain about. It's full of loopholes, poor plot design, even my little nephew's tricks are better than this, and so on. But how can I put it, from God’s perspective, thinking about problems will naturally be more rational. If you are in the game, you will be misled by your perceptual thinking. Rose's scream was the last straw that overwhelmed rational thinking.
