Chapter 143 135. Trial from Hades (Part 2)
Time has no meaning here.
In the depressing room, there was only the sound of quiet breathing, and the sound of dripping water could be heard from time to time.
An Tai leaned against the wall, and he could feel his life force passing away bit by bit.
No one knows exactly how much time has passed, but everyone is eating as little as possible without being able to determine the time.
Everyone lay limp and lifeless in the room.
After an unknown amount of time, An Tai felt that the food in his hands was getting less and less.
A boy suddenly stood up and ran quickly towards the place where the knives were placed.
? !
Ante wanted to stand up and stop him, but someone took a step ahead of him. Pasteur, who deliberately rested not far from the knife, stood up directly and pushed the comer down.
"You, what do you want to do?!"
The boy who was pushed down yelled in panic, while still trying to climb towards the place where the knife was placed.
But Pasteur leaned over and suppressed the boy firmly.
Pasteur seemed to want to look into the boy's eyes, but he looked away first.
"You have nothing to eat, right?"
Pasteur pointed to the boy's empty hand.
The boy looked at him in horror.
"What do you want to do?"
Pasteur shook his head, nodded again, then reached out and broke off half of his dry food.
"Here."
Without waiting for the boy to react, Pasteur directly stuffed the food into the boy's hands.
"If it's not enough, come back to me."
Pasteur glanced at the boy, then stood up and left.
But this time, Pasteur squatted directly where the knives were placed.
The boy was stunned. He held the food in his hand, glanced at Pasteur quickly, and then immediately stood up and ran back as if to escape.
Likewise, others in the room were shocked by Pasteur's behavior.
Seeing everyone staring at him, Pasteur smiled sheepishly and looked towards the door.
"I think you can abstain. It's a big deal."
"Don't look at me."
There was silence, but the breathing in the whole room became heavier.
Then silence once again enveloped the room.
An Tai stood up unsteadily.
He still had a small handful of dry food in his hand, which had been wetted with water.
Others may no longer have the strength to stand up.
Antai can endure more than others.
After Pasteur's action, there was no further conflict.
An Tai felt that after the first person failed, it would be difficult to get a second one.
Originally, it took courage to stand up in a silent crowd.
What's more, Antai didn't want to know how many people could be influenced by Pasteur's actions, but Pasteur actually told others that they couldn't defeat him.
In other words, even if they tried to snatch it, Pasteur and Antaeus would stop them.
If Pasteur and Antaeus were really defeated, the first one to take the lead would actually lose more than he gained.
So everyone became quiet.
During this period, some people could not hold on and directly asked to give up and let him try to get out through the door, but Io stopped him.
"I'm not sure if the number of people in the room will be the criterion for inspection."
With that said, Io gave part of her and Lena's food to the man.
An Tai looked around the room, and he clearly saw that everyone except himself was out of food.
That's it now.
An Tai thought silently in his heart that if it was true as they deduced, then the screening would be over soon.
He looked at the indicator light on the wall. It was still so low and dim. Will it really light up?
If their judgment is wrong, nothing can be changed now.
Antaeus was facing Pasteur, who was sleeping or unconscious.
Although Pasteur was the first to propose the concept of abstention, he still insisted on not leaving.
Ante walked over and patted Pasteur carefully.
no response.
Pasteur was clearly reaching his limit.
So Antai prepared to pour food directly into Pasteur's mouth.
He looked at the food and swallowed.
No, Aetna, no.
You can quit, you can quit and you won't necessarily die, but if you don't, you might fail.
He leaned down, ready—
the light came on.
An Tai almost cried.
I'm very sorry, this trial is really poorly written.
So I’ll end it first.
If you have any good selection methods, please leave a message.
There is another
update that might look better if released together.
But unfortunately, the only thing I can't surpass is to code faster.
