Chapter 2: Dormitory for trainees (1/2)
The ”studio” in the mechanical sound mouth is a sufficiently bright and luxurious hall.
The gorgeous and grotesque red gold chandelier hangs from the high dome, and the exquisite relief paintings are portrayed on the wall, which is lifelike. White gold candlesticks are placed in the corners, and the flames are bright and extinguished, and the shadows are beautiful.
The whole hall is distributed in steps, divided into nine steps. The lower the stairs, the more spacious, the most spacious level is even large enough to accommodate a large football field, and each ladder is covered with carpets of different colors and decorated with different decorations.
Of course, the most striking thing is the ten thrones located on the top step.
The pedestal of the throne is made of crystal and is extremely luxurious, with a blanket on it, and drinks and fruits next to it, clearly showing the strict level difference.
The stairs have only one thing in common, that is, they are facing a piece of three-dimensional projection floating in the air in unison.
The five characters ”Thriller Trainee” are floating on the projection.
These words are three-dimensional projections when they look up, projecting on the lens of everyone's eyeballs. No matter how big the hall is, it can be seen clearly without any effort. It is the same as the sound that appears out of thin air and does not require any medium to transmit. It is obviously not the height that can be reached by the current scientific level.
The people gathered up and down from the various stairs entered in file and gathered in the center of the studio.
The expressions on people's faces are varied, with anxiety accounting for most of them, and the noise is endless.
The size of this hall can't be observed with the naked eye, I just feel that there is no end in sight at a glance, and there are countless human heads under the pressure.
Old God Zong Jiu was standing on the spot, moving his fingers while frankly accepting the baptism of the eyes of all parties.
Needless to say, the beauty of the original owner of the cannon fodder does not need to be said, and because of the lack of pigment, it shows the appearance characteristics of a mildly albino patient, such as this natural white hair. Walking along the way, as long as it is a place with people, he can harvest a large gaze effortlessly.
Zong Jiu felt a little pity.
If an ordinary entertainment industry draft essay, just rely on this face, you don't have to worry about not having the audience to pay for it.
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, screaming one after another.
They found something out of thin air on their chests.
”How is this going?!”
In the noise, Zong Jiu lowered his head silently, not surprisingly seeing the blue letters appearing out of thin air on his chest.
Thriller trainee. Class E.
The original owner is a beautiful vase, with no meat on his body, just a white chicken with a fighting power of five. It is reasonable to give an E, and the operation is full marks.
If there is room for explanation for all the previous ones, then this breastplate that appeared out of nowhere is not a coincidence.
The crowd started a commotion. But not everyone is like this.
At least that's not the case with the people on the wall.
There was exactly the same calm and indifference on their faces.
The letter cards of these people are all above the C level, and the highest in the line of sight is the A level, which is in sharp contrast with the large panic of the E level and F level next to Zong Jiu.
In addition, they seem to be divided into several different organizations, keeping each other in good water and maintaining the necessary social distance.
Although he doesn't know the plot, Zong Jiu, who knows the background of the original text, knows the scene clearly.
Not all trainees, like Xia Chuan and others, were directly transferred from reality to this **** and terrifying trainee plan.
Over the years, there have been ”children of the heavenly chosen” chosen unluckily from all over the world. They have entered this terrifying infinite circle. The number is not a small number. After all, there are more than two million people disappearing inexplicably every year in the world, and there are general estimates. Millions of people are struggling here.
There is no way to return to the real world in an infinite loop, let alone escape, it is hard to save your life. Most of the survivors died in the endless, rounds of forced participation copies. Only a handful of people survived, struggling to survive.
Compared with these experienced and veteran survivors, who don't know how many life-saving means there are, Zong Jiu, a newcomer who seems to be able to fill his numbers, obviously has no face to win.
”It's been a long time since I saw so many people at once.”
While Zong Jiu was observing the group of people secretly, the survivors over there were also whispering.
In the past, they were all fixed teams of the group, and the teams could not meet each other, they could only meet in the dungeon. Nowadays, when I see so many old faces and countless newcomers below, I can't help but feel a little emotional.
Although the rewards of the Thriller Trainee Program are very attractive, the mortality rate given by the main system also discourages many survivors. So even with so many survivors, only 10% of them dare to register and pass the screening.
There are not many old people participating in the competition. Of course, some new people have to be brought in to build momentum.
”What's the use of more people.”
Qin also hugged his arms and sneered: ”All the high-level faces we see now are old faces. It is estimated that the newcomers are used by the main system to deliver food, so that we can feel more involved.”
The other person didn't say a word, approved his statement in his heart, and only glanced at that side with a pitying look, ”It's a pity, if the newcomer struggles with a few more copies, the chances of surviving are better. It is **** mode that comes up, miserable. ”
The newcomers over there are still noisy, like talking about buying vegetables in a vegetable market.
The old people watched indifferently, and did not intend to step forward to explain or maintain order.
This is the only large-scale planned mission released in the infinite loop for so long, not to mention that there are such generous rewards, the difficulty can be imagined.
Old people are not necessarily able to guarantee that they will not be eliminated and will live to the end of this draft, let alone newcomers who have no power to restrain themselves?
No one is the Virgin, and the mud bodhisattva cannot protect himself when crossing the river. It is good to take care of himself.
[The time has come, the entrance to the studio has been blocked]
As if echoing, at the moment the sound fell, the doors around the hall fell like a jack, blocking all those who had not had time to enter the studio outside.
[End of the first round of preliminary selection]
The mechanical sound resounded throughout the hall without any emotion.
The candles began to go out one by one, and the extinguished sparks floated into the air, forming a burning virtual figure.
”Welcome, thriller trainees who have successfully entered the stadium, I am the personification of the main system.”
”Next, I will explain to you about the basic rules and schedule of the thriller trainee program, so stay tuned.”
####
Holding a mobile phone in one hand, Xia Chuan sat boredly on the steps, looking down from time to time.
After so long of tossing, his mobile phone was almost out of power, the battery bar returned to a dazzling red, and it would automatically shut down at some point.
Disappointingly, the signal bar at the top is still empty.
After some agitation, many people gathered in the stairwell, and many others took out their mobile phones and took photos with Xia Chuan on the stairs. Although Xia Chuan was impatient, he had no choice but to acquiesce in the absence of assistants and bodyguards.
”No, why is it so quiet?”
After everyone lined up to take photos with the big stars, someone finally noticed something was wrong: ”Huh? Where are the people who went upstairs before? Why didn't they even make a sound.”
After the mechanical sound made the last five-minute countdown broadcast, there was no more sound in the corridor. Even the sound of footsteps and noise before it disappeared completely. Only their voices reverberated in the stairwell, which sounded inexplicably crappy.
”Wait, I rely on, there won't be an exit upstairs, they have already gone out!”
The man had just finished taking a photo with Xia Chuan, suddenly his inspiration flashed and he slapped his thigh, ”Everyone else has gone out, we are still sitting here stupidly, what are we doing, let’s go!”
”Fuck! That's right! How else can you explain it so quiet!”
”It's so silly, standing still.”
Everyone suddenly realized that they rushed towards the stairs, making a violent sound on the stairs.
”Damn, I've been trapped here for so long, I've already stayed enough, just walk around!”
They rushed into it.
After running through a few corners, the people who were standing at the corner of the corridor in front suddenly stopped collectively.
”What's the matter, don't stand in the way, let's go!”
The people behind were noisy and didn't understand why the team suddenly stopped.
For some reason, a strong sense of anxiety suddenly swept through Xia Chuan's senses.
He just wanted to look up, but only felt that something hot and sticky fell on his head from the air.
Suddenly blindfolded, Xia Chuan subconsciously pulled away the things in front of him, ”What is this?”
When he grasped this thing, he realized that something was wrong.
The thing was sticky and awful, with sticky tissue and blood ticking on one end, and foul-smelling black and yellow mucus leaking out of the broken place on the other end.
