The coffin suddenly opened, but the eighty-number coffin with the wrong answer was closed again.
The ruthless devouring has begun.
Inside the coffin, Wen Xishu couldn't help but sigh at the brutal nature of this elimination match.
He had already solved the puzzle, but because he was targeted by the eyeball monster from the start, his rhythm was thrown off. When Old Zheng brought him to the eighty-one-number coffin, trying to grant him a chance to live...
He chose to let Old Zheng survive and then used a card to pass this round.
"Even if you solve the puzzle... you might still be eliminated for other reasons."
"This elimination match, you still can't be careless."
By consuming a god-level card, Wen Xishu survived.
As the laughter of the woman and the baby gradually faded away, the hearts of the ten surviving people were pounding fiercely.
Zheng's heart was beating quickly.
"Younger Brother Wen is incredible... not only did he relieve me of my negative effects, but he really found the answer."
"From one to start, to ten to end, how could anyone think that eighty-one was the correct answer?"
"Fortunately, we have Younger Brother Wen!"
The happiness of surviving after a disaster surged up for Zheng. This was truly a narrow escape.
Feeling that the eerie atmosphere outside had dissipated, Wen Xishu calmly pushed open the coffin lid.
"Old Zheng, you can come out now."
Upon hearing Wen Xishu's voice, Zheng excitedly pushed open the coffin lid:
"Younger Brother, you're simply amazing! What exactly was the puzzle?"
Gradually, other monsters also came out one after another.
Wen Xishu said:
"The correct answers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100."
"I won't elaborate on the characteristics of these numbers."
"In short, it conforms to the suggestion from the ten mirrors of varying sizes that could reflect a person into a square shape. You should ponder it yourself."
Zheng seemed thoughtful, as if he had a hint of understanding.
But he quickly noticed:
"Younger Brother... weren't you the wrong answer?"
He himself was number eighty-one, which was the correct answer. But Wen Xishu was clearly the wrong answer.
Wen Xishu smiled and said:
"I'm somewhat overpowered. I'm an existence that can't be killed."
Zheng marveled again at his younger brother's strength, amazed at the value of fifty-three million...
Being able to solve the puzzle head-on and also ignore penalties and defy the rules.
He suddenly felt that trying to save Younger Brother Wen was utterly foolish.
Wen Xishu smiled, seemingly aware of Old Zheng's thoughts:
"Not bad, Old Zheng. We're pretty lucky; the numbers are relatively late and not so contested."
Zheng nodded firmly, realizing that this eerie competition was only responsible for posing the questions, and as for how to answer them, it might not really require following the standard answers.
When you feel that the standard answer is taken by someone else, you can snatch their work before the penalty starts.
Moreover, even if you obtain the standard answer, you might still be eliminated due to some special reasons.
"I don't know what the test in the second round will be like, but this first round was truly terrifying."
A ninety percent elimination rate.
The competition venue went from densely packed to sparse and scattered.
The seed players and popular contestants from the beginning were all wiped out in this round, and the surviving monsters really just relied on luck.
Rare breeds and ordinary breeds were inherently not good at thinking and appeared slow compared to Jack Jennifer.
This time, solving the puzzle was not difficult...
Wen Xishu quickly figured it out. But for these monsters, it basically relied on guessing.
The scene began to change again.
At this moment, the host's voice appeared in the survivors' ears:
"Congratulations to all of you for passing the first round of the elimination match!"
"You damn lucky ones! You're one step closer to the perfect evolution opportunity!"
"Are you suddenly feeling that the venue is a bit empty? Hahaha, don't worry, our venues are plenty!"
"Soon, you'll be feeling lively!"
"Next, hundreds of arenas will merge! A super elimination match of nearly five thousand is kicking off!"
The scene rapidly changed and expanded.
Compared to the previous hundred-coffin scene, this one was more grand.
Meanwhile, Wen Xishu gained 210 points.
The points for surviving were 200. And the points for killing one person were 10.
Not only that, Wen Xishu also found that the second round of the competition had an additional card pool compared to the first round.
In other words, now everyone can carry five cards.
This hint appeared, causing Wen Xishu to freeze:
"Is the next scene a super survival scene of five thousand people?"
"Damn it, five thousand people... and now, quite a few people should already know that killing others can earn 10 points."
"My... no, Old Zheng's situation is really dire."
Wen Xishu didn't directly kill anyone, but due to the effects of a card, someone bore his fate.
This kill eventually counted on Wen Xishu.
This also made Wen Xishu realize that the judgment for killing is quite loose.
So in the five-thousand-person super survival scene...
Among five thousand people, there must also be quite a few who know killing others can earn additional points.
Five thousand people, totaling fifty thousand points.
"Not bad, if I kill them all off, I can barely make up for my card drawing losses."
Wen Xishu's sense of security diminished, but luckily, it was time for the next card drawing round.
This time, Zheng went all out with three attempts at the 128-point purple card pool.
Zheng might seem clumsy, but he wasn't stupid; he was also good at learning. So he also analyzed that the next scene, having too many people, would rather result in chaos.
Chaos would require means of protection.
Zheng drew the cards from the purple card pool three times, and luck was on his side, as if possessed by Ah Miao. He actually drew two Order Cards and one Magic Energy Card.
