Chapter 376: Unknown is Despair

The world has changed a lot. Including Su Ming’s manor, there are several other villas around it that have been teleported to this place. There is a large gap between the villa area and the ordinary civilian area. Then there are houses in the civilian area in the distance, and there are not many houses. Su Ming estimated that there were at least a few hundred people who were teleported over. He thought not optimistically, there might be more than a thousand people.

Su Ming followed the eight-legged meatball monster and followed him to the center of the empty field, where there were a few people waiting, but there were only fifteen people in total.

It seems that the monster had already been called in the civilian area before coming to them, but ordinary people were afraid of monsters, so they did not follow him. Among the fifteen people who followed, five of them had a distinct temperament that was obviously different from ordinary people, and they should be superpowers.

As for the other ten people, they should think it is safer to follow these abilities, so they risked to come here.

Su Ming glanced at them, and the people also looked at him. There was nothing wrong with their eyes. It should be that they had never seen his wanted order.

"This is food and water for you." The huge monster opened his mouth in a deep voice, and many kinds of food and water appeared in the air around it.

"Next, announce the rules."

Su Ming frowned slightly.

The rules are about to be announced. According to the system information, if this monster is killed, they will be able to obtain food and water and not be bound by the rules that have not been announced yet... However, this ugly and crude creature in front of them feels very dangerous.

If Su Ming really wants to take action, he is confident that he can win, but his own injury may not be worth the loss, not to mention that other alien creatures will appear in the future. If the alien creature appears much stronger than himself, then the rules must be followed. A delicate balance between killing and following the rules needs to be a subtle balance. Killing alien creatures with preconceived ideas will plant an anchor in other people's minds and regard this weird phenomenon as a conventional type of combat, which is not good.

Let’s hear what this monster said first, and then take it slowly, Su Ming thought.

"Now, you will be grouped together, one person will give orders to others to abuse themselves, and the other person will abuse themselves by following the orders. The better the performance and the stronger the execution, the more you will be assigned to the most portion of the food in this batch.

The allocated food cannot be robbed or stolen, and can only be distributed by the parties involved, otherwise they will be punished, so now the grouping begins."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ming felt a sense of weightlessness for a moment. In the blink of an eye, the scene around him had changed. He and a person were in a closed room. The wall behind Su Ming was hung with densely packed with various torture instruments. This room seemed to have been an execution room used to deal with prisoners.

"The person who approached the wall with torture instruments was the one who obeyed the order, and the other was the one who gave the order." The monster's voice came from nowhere.

"Hey! This is too ridiculous!" The man in front of Su Ming raised his head and shouted at the air, but the monster never responded again.

He lowered his head, looked at Su Ming, shrugged and smiled, "This is too irritating, right?"

Su Ming nodded: "It's really ridiculous."

Su Ming said, pulling an iron chair over and sitting down on it, sighing heavily.

Headache.

It's a headache. What should I do now?

This time the strange phenomenon was like the fear of the stairs, making people feel helpless.

In a sense, the fear staircase is a more bizarre place than the Black Gate and White Mist. Although the Black Gate is strange, it has its own rules inside. The cause of the White Mist is three false gods, but the fear staircase is different. Although the fear staircase does not pose any threat to Su Ming, the feeling of powerlessness it brings to Su Ming is the deepest.

Now, the devil's realm brings the same feeling to Su Ming, which puts Su Ming in great pressure and creates a sense of fear.

"There is a timer here!" said the man pointing to the timer on the table. The timer shows that the remaining time is one hour.

Fortunately, there is still an hour left, and I just took a look at the system information. Regarding this weird introduction, there is an example of self-abuse in the public archives. This self-abuse example should have a more detailed record in the hidden archives. Open it immediately and take a look. Maybe it will be inspiring.

Su Ming called out the files in his mind, browsed and searched quickly, and finally found a more detailed file about the "self-abuse rules".

[Questioner: "You said that the first game you encountered at the beginning was a self-abuse game? Can you tell me in detail?"

Survivor: "This...is hard to describe. In short, it means that we are two people in a group, one person gives orders, the other person follows the order, abuses themselves, and executes the more cruel people, the more food they can get. It's a very simple rule."

Questioner: "How did you do it?"

Survivor: "We didn't do as we did, so we didn't get anything in the end. If we could start over, I would definitely follow the rules! Only by living! Only by living is the most important thing!" *Note: Although this survivor can communicate normally, his personality and thinking patterns have become divorced from ordinary people, and his emotions are very easy to be excited.*

Asked by the questioner: "As you said before, the allocated food cannot be stolen or stolen, right?"

Survivor: "Are you deaf? I said it! You can be robbed or stolen, but those who do these things will be punished. They will feel hungry if they do that kind of thing. Even if they eat the stolen food, it will be useless. In that world, they can only eat what they won from the game or kill those monsters stolen... My head hurts so much. Can you give me painkillers?

*The person in charge gave the other party a tranquilizer and painkiller*

Survivor: "I get it, don't get upset, I will do it!"

Questioner: "What did you just say?"

Survivor: "Ah... nothing... nothing, what did you ask me just now?"

Questioner: "I haven't asked yet. Now ask you, can you give these foods to others after you win enough food?"

Survivor: "Yes, even if you are forced, if someone presses your neck with a knife and asks you to give him all the food, then as long as you agree, all your food will be taken away and become his... There are no rules for doing things in that place, only the rules of the devil must be followed... Others, no rules for others."

*At this point, the survivor questioned had clearly expressed his impatientness. According to the experts' judgment, he had lost his basic logical thinking ability and was completely unaware that the Bureau of Investigation was an organization that could easily destroy him. This was a completely clear idea from his willingness to cooperate at the beginning.

Questioner: "I would like to ask, if the food provided by alien creatures is enough for everyone to eat if the food provided by them is evenly divided?"

The survivor was silent for a few minutes, and then replied, "Enough...is enough."

Questioner: "Then why are so many people still dead? Only food and water are restricted to survival, and you just said that other things will be prepared by monsters."

Survivor: "You don't understand."

Questioner: "Is it because someone doesn't cooperate?"

Survivor: "Yes, everyone is alone, and that's how it is."

...】

Su Ming finished reading the content related to the self-abuse competition in the archives, and then fell into deep thought.

Food can be distributed to everyone, but in the end, only thirteen people survived, and there are always thirteen people. Alien creatures do not interfere with humans or attack humans. Then, except for starvation, thirst, death, illness, the only way to die is to be killed... killed by others who are also humans.

This environment is a bit like an environment where resources are limited after the end of the world, and people who are blinded by the fear of unknown life and death, are unwilling to share resources, which eventually leads to the explosion of other human and animal nature, hurts each other, and eventually leads to destruction.

This situation must be avoided. The more deformed the environment, the more stable order is established!

I need to save as many people as possible, but why are there only thirteen people who survived in the end? Are the others destined to die? Is there no other way?

Could it be that there is a way for all employees to survive, but the people who went out before were not found?

"It's so outrageous. I didn't expect to enter the ghost realm, but it seems that those monsters will not hurt us, they will just have such disgusting problems." The man in front of Su Ming smiled.

"You look calm." Su Ming said casually.

The man smiled and scratched his head: "It's not calm, but in this place, people with faith can survive. I am a devout believer of the God of Steel! Don't look at me like this, I am the best blacksmith near my part!"

"The more pious you are, the higher your survival rate? Who said that?" Su Ming asked with a frown.

The blacksmith was stunned and looked at Su Ming: "Aren't you a local? Everyone knows that the nobles and the adults said that."

"Why don't you move away with your family when you know there is something like the ghost realm?" Su Ming asked again.

"It's the same everywhere. There is no absolutely safe place in this world. The last time the ghost realm happened was only 20 years ago. More than a thousand people died in the country. This is less than the slum fights every year. It's too outrageous to move away for such a thing?"

After saying that, the blacksmith paused and his smile disappeared.

"But, you will regret it only after you come in. If you had known it, you would have left here with your wife and son, but there is no medicine for regret in the world."

"Have your wife and son come in too?" Su Ming asked, although he knew that there was no need to ask, as long as they lived together, they would definitely come in together.

"Well, they didn't follow him." The blacksmith smiled. "Fortunately, at least you don't have to participate in this disgusting game."

The blacksmith pulled over another stool and sat down, showing a kind smile to Su Ming: "There are more than fifty minutes left. Let's chat and pass the time. Look at your outfit, you should be a rich man. There must be many servants and bodyguards who come in with you, right?"

"Do you want to come to my place?" Su Ming glanced at the other party in a faint way and directly expressed the other party's purpose.
