The sage was determined to die.

"Who are you?"

His voice, which had been silent for a long time, broke into a cough as soon as it came out. In the darkness, he could not see the figure of the person in front of him; all that remained was a blurry outline.

Wang Zhixuan reached out his hand, but unsurprisingly, he grabbed nothing.

"Is this really an assessment?"

Without stammering, he finished speaking in one breath, "Or is it your trap?"

"Of course it's an assessment; this is a prisoner's dilemma that I designed myself."

"Oh, you don't know what the prisoner's dilemma is, do you?"

The girl chuckled softly, as if explaining but also mocking: "My friends laughed at me, saying that without radioactive particles, what kind of Schrödinger's cat... no, what kind of person is he?"

"There's someone outside who went into the box with you, but unfortunately, only one of you can get out."

Wang Zhixuan heard his own calm voice and said, "And then?"

"That's all, it's that simple."

"All I need to do is outlast him, right?" Wang Zhixuan remained calm when he heard his own voice.

In the darkness, a hand grabbed his hair and yanked it back, not caring whether he was in pain or not. After pulling out a few strands of hair, she chuckled softly.

"Of course, but I won't tell you who lasted longer; that's for you to decide."

She was very generous and didn't give the other person a chance to ask any more pointless questions. She smiled and explained, "What I mean is, when you can't hold on any longer, just tell me you're giving up. Of course, the first one to give up will have to stay here forever."

Wang Zhixuan remained silent.

This assessment can be described as extremely simple, yet also incredibly cruel.

If they are prisoners and everyone wants to get out, then no one wants to be the first to give up, so they can only extend their own sentences.

"You're very different from the other examiners I've met," he said with some difficulty. "You're strange."

Where Wang Zhixuan couldn't see, the girl rested her chin on her hand, looking down at him. After hearing his words, she even nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, after all, I'm crazy."

She tapped her temple with her finger and said with a smile, "If you want to be a little luckier, how about exchanging a piece of information about someone with me?"

Wang Zhixuan suddenly looked up at her.

at the same time.

As soon as Ji Ying entered, she nodded in disappointment and said, "The Prisoner's Dilemma is still so unoriginal."

After he finished speaking, he stood there motionless, and the calm air around him began to fluctuate around him, with time flowing at two, three, and many more times the speed.

Soon after, Ji Ying opened her eyes and looked in a certain direction.

"Using the power of literary talent to cheat," the girl calmly accused. "Is that a good thing?"

"Oh, so the examiner who pretends to be crazy is actually very upright?" Ji Ying retorted casually.

The girl clearly had no intention of catching up with him and went straight to the point: "I need to ask you about someone."

"I don't know Ji Bai either; I've only met him twice."

As if she could read minds, Ji Ying interrupted, "I don't know him."

The girl didn't speak for a moment, but Ji Ying knew that she hadn't left.

He paused for a moment, then broke the silence by speaking first.

"By the way, you didn't start playing that amnesia game with him again, did you?"

Ji Ying seemed to chuckle, and slowly said, "Don't tease me like that, Cheng Yan."
