System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Chapter 268: Being Stronger Than My Previous Self Is Enough

{Please get ready!}

There was another gunshot and everyone rushed forward.

Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin were still at the back. Chu Lingxian was a little faster because she was waiting for Lu Nanyin.

"You go there first."

Seeing that the others were almost at the top and the faster ones had already climbed over, he said, "Okay, I'll go over first. If you don't have enough time at the end, you can jump down and I'll catch you."

"okay."

Chu Lingxian sped up slightly and reached the finish line in half the time. After flipping over, he climbed down quickly.

Lu Nanyin only climbed three-quarters of the height and it took her a few seconds to climb up, but she was almost out of strength.

She turned over with difficulty, and her head felt dizzy as she looked at the ground. Lu Nanyin gritted her teeth and slowly climbed down, but time was running out. There were only fifteen seconds left, and she still had two-thirds of the distance to go.

Chu Lingxian climbed down and looked at Lu Nanyin anxiously. When she looked up, she saw that as time passed, the clouds above her head seemed to press down, right above Lu Nanyin's head, as if as long as she did not complete the requirements of the question within the specified time, the cloud would swallow her up.

Lu Nanyin also felt the pressure on her head. The time began to count down and she was still halfway there.

She wanted to speed up her pace, but her legs and feet felt weak, and the hemp rope in front of her eyes became blurry. The sweat from her palms wet the rope, making it even harder to hold on.

three!

two!

When the last countdown sounded, Lu Nanyin fell down. Chu Lingxian had been standing below and caught her when the time was up.

Lu Nanyin was still a little dizzy and she managed to stand up. The scene in front of her eyes was distorted and spinning, and she couldn't even take two steps.

She had no choice but to sit there and rest for a while. Chu Lingxian stayed by her side and gave her some water. This time the rest time seemed to be extra long.

{Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4, Player 5, Player 6, Player 7, Player 8, each add 800,000 gold coins.}

{Take a short break, the game will continue later.}

Lu Nanyin said weakly: "I really want to thank him. If we had another match, I would have died of sudden death, let alone being arrested."

Chu Lingxian sat next to him and let Lu Nanyin lean on his shoulder to make her feel more comfortable.

"Don't say that. Nothing will happen to you anymore."

Lu Nanyin held her hand, smiled and promised her, "I know, I won't do it again."

Player One and Player Six huddled together, tilted their heads and looked at the two people leaning against each other, their eyes full of confusion.

What's going on with these two people? They are so close to each other and talking like this. Would friends do this? They probably would, right?

Player No. 1 and Player No. 6 looked at each other and thought, this doesn’t seem right. It’s okay for them to hug each other, but why does it feel weird to say these words?

{It's break time, waiting for all players to go to the pool in front.}

Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin were puzzled. Hmm? No time limit? Then it's not a requirement of the question. Just walk slowly over there.

Chu Lingxian supported Lu Nanyin and walked towards the pool.

Player One and Player Six followed behind them, staring at them both.

Lu Nanyin saw it out of the corner of her eye, "Why are the two of them following us?"

"I don't know, but their conversation seemed to be curious about our relationship."

"what?"

Lu Nanyin turned her head to look at them. Player No. 1 and Player No. 6 stopped and slowly turned their heads to look elsewhere.

The two continued to move forward, and number one and number six continued to follow.

"Aren't they robots? Why do they feel like they are not so pure robots?"

"I'm not sure. It seems like things have changed since they carried us here."

"They helped us, and then...they became like people...?"

Chu Lingxian thought about it carefully and felt that this was correct, so he nodded slightly.

Everyone came to the pool. Chu Lingxian looked at the clear pool in front of him. He hadn't seen such clean water for a long time. He missed it so much!

{Question 7: Please swim back and forth in the pool within 100 seconds.}

Looking at the pool in front of me, it is at least a hundred meters long. One round trip in a hundred seconds is even more difficult.

Lu Nanyin was still dizzy, and she couldn't swim. She was a complete landlubber. Not to mention swimming, she could only go into shallow puddles or streams.

It’s over. I’m afraid I can’t pass this level.

Lu Nanyin subconsciously looked at Chu Lingxian. She had been staring at the pool, not knowing what she was thinking.

In Chu Lingxian's eyes, the pool is her territory, but what should Lu Nanyin do? Or should she...

Player No. 6 asked Lu Nanyin again, "Can you get through? I can help you."

"You help me? How? And carry it?"

Player 6 shook his head, "No, I'll carry you, go there together, and come back later."

Player No. 1 was not to be outdone and asked Chu Lingxian, "What about you? I can help you, too."

Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin looked at each other and agreed.

But I don’t think I will be as lucky this time as last time. There will always be some restrictions.

Both of them thought so, but after the game started, nothing special happened. There were no restrictions for Player One and Player Six, and they were the same as everyone else.

Is this not considered cheating? This question has been lingering in the minds of the two people. If there are no restrictions and penalties now, will there be any situation in the future?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but worry more about what would happen at night.

With the help of these two women, they were able to complete the task within the specified time.

{Player 1, Player 2, Player 3, Player 4, Player 5, Player 6, Player 7, Player 8, each add 900,000 gold coins.}

There was no shortage of gold coins, and this situation made Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin very uneasy.

{Take a short break, the game will continue later.}

Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin sat by the pool, looking at Player 1 and Player 6 in front of them. Their eyes seemed to have regained their luster, their skin had color, their expressions were more lively, and they talked more. Player 1 was talking to Player 6. The mechanical sounds on their bodies were almost negligible. I just didn't know if they had a heartbeat or pulse, or if their internal organs had recovered.

"There are still three more questions to come. What should our department do? We can't keep up with them at all, and we can't complete the requirements of the questions."

"These questions are set according to their situations. It's normal that they can't keep up with the speed and endurance of a bowl of noodles. Don't take it too seriously. Just be better than your previous self."

Lu Nanyin smiled and said, "I know. You've said it many times."

"That being said, you have to remember it."

"I remember it."

“Not only must you remember it, you must also do it.”
