Seeing Xia Yu's calm demeanor, they assumed she had some good ideas.

Xia Yu casually remarked, "Just wait to die."

Everyone fainted: "What!?"

Duan Xiaotang looked at the camera and comforted herself, "Relax, I don't believe the production team would do anything real to us."

Whatever you say, you get proven wrong.

The next moment, Duan Xiaotang was knocked off her feet by the wall that was pushed in.

Fortunately, Li Yan pulled her back in time.

Li Yan almost cursed, "Shang Lai, do you want a beating?"

The space shrank to the point where seven people could only stand in a row, and could touch the wall with their hands.

What's scary is the feel of the wall to the touch; it's solid, not some kind of foam.

"Huahua, are we really doomed?"

Xu Jianian, with tears streaming down her face, clung tightly to Xia Yu.

They only truly experienced what it felt like to have their mind go blank when their bodies were pressed against the wall.

"Click."

A button clicked, and the wall stopped pushing and began to slowly back up.

Xu Jianian opened one eye tentatively: "Are we saved?"

Xia Yu shrugged: "I guess so..."

Xu Jianian gasped for breath: "That scared me to death."

[This scared me to death! Director Ma, are you serious?]

[Why was the shot of Shang Xu and the Chainsaw Man blocked just now? In the blink of an eye, we see Shang Xu pressing a switch outside the secret room where they are trapped, but it seems that Shang Xu has chased the Chainsaw Man away.]

[Look at camera angle 03 in the live stream. Although it only happened for one moment, the Chainsaw Man was kicked over there by Shang Xu and then disappeared. What a dedicated NPC!]

The stone door opened, and in the dim light, Shang Xuxin's tall figure came into view. His frosty face softened with a smile upon seeing Xia Yu, and his voice was languid: "Why did you always wait for me to come and save you?"

Xia Yu said helplessly, "Who would know that the switch is on the outside?"

Mu Qing: "Maybe there are escape mechanisms inside, but we just haven't found them yet."

After Mu Qing said that, the group looked at each other, making them feel like the seven of them were cowards.

Shang Xu walked in, his hawk-like eyes scanning the surroundings: "Alright, let's continue looking for the mechanism to pass through."

His appearance put everyone at ease.

Duan Xiaotang asked curiously, "Shang Xu, what were you doing just now?"

Xu Jianian said with a hint of pride, "He went to fight the Chainsaw Man as the last one to finish off the enemy."

With a worried expression, Mu Qing asked, "Is it a real NPC?"

Shen Youyou was also puzzled: "Yeah, how can it be so real and so terrifying?"

Shang Xu and Xia Yu exchanged a glance, casually saying, "Yeah, he's a real NPC. I kicked him and he begged for mercy and slunk away."

His words provided great psychological comfort to everyone.

Duan Xiaotang examined the situation closely, not forgetting to tease him: "Let's go through Director Ma's real life after we leave. It's like a reality show about Myanmar."

Li Yan had some doubts: "With Shang Lai's occasional lapses in judgment, he shouldn't be able to create such a realistic and meticulously crafted secret room."

Xia Yu yawned: "I'm sleepy, let's go out quickly."

Mu Qing had a bit of a headache and said discouragedly, "Apart from the button that Jia Nian found, it seems like there's nothing else wrong."

Xu Jianian waved her hands repeatedly: "Although I saw it first, I didn't press it."

He won't take the blame for this.

Fu Jingnian: ...

Li Yan had a somewhat premature suggestion: "How about we go back the way we came?"

Duan Xiaotang shook her head, the image of the map appearing in her mind: "There's no such thing as backing down when it comes to doing things. Besides, according to the map we saw before we came in, we can get out after passing this secret room and then another one."

Mu Qing nodded repeatedly.

Xia Yu's sleepy eyes perked up, and she pointed upwards: "I suspect the mechanism is up in the ceiling."

Shang Xu smiled and said, "Just as I thought."

He bent down and gestured, "I'll carry you up."

"it is good."

Mu Qing cautioned, "Be careful."

Xia Yu tapped the ceiling with her knuckles.

After a while, both of them heard a different knocking sound at the same time.

Xia Yu lowered her head, and Shang Yu gave her an approving look.

She pushed upwards with force, and sure enough, there was space inside.

An area the size of a box was pushed in.

With a muffled thud, the two doors of the secret room opened in an instant.

Why are there two doors?

The group looked at each other; didn't this mean they had to split up?

The left door says "Life," and the right door says "Death."

"The gate of life and the gate of death?"

Xia Yu pondered for a moment.

At that moment, the loudspeaker in the secret room started playing.

[Each door on the left and right can allow four people to enter. Be careful, the dead door is very dangerous! Guests have two minutes to make a choice, otherwise the escape room will close again.]

Shen Youyou's steps unconsciously veered towards the life gate.

Duan Xiaotang looked at Shang Xu and the others: "You guys make the arrangements."

Xia Yu pointed to the dead end: "I'll go in on the right."

Xu Jianian suddenly raised her hand: "I'll go too!"

Mu Qing followed closely behind and stood up.

Shang Xu looked and saw that it was just the four of them.

Duan Xiaotang agreed, then looked at Shen Youyou and the others: "What do you think?"

"Okay, Sister Xiaotang."

The eight people then split up and began to act separately.

The light in the passage finally brightened a bit, and Xu Jianian's voice wasn't trembling as much: "What do you think is inside this Death Gate?"

Xia Yu was actually hoping for something: "Who cares what's inside, just hurry up and come, I'm so sleepy."

As they walked, they entered another secret room.

This time, there were two passageways and a small platform in the center with cards posted on it instructing them on the next steps.

The four of them need to come out and play a game.

One person stands in one corner, and then moves forward to the next corner in turn.

Logically speaking, it should be able to complete a full rotation.

but…

What if a fifth person appears?

Xu Jianian's eyes lit up and she could already picture the scene: "Um, three people can play too, right? I'll stand in the middle and keep an eye out for any NPCs causing trouble!"

"Xu Jianian, what are you afraid of, you're a grown man?"

Shang Xu was speechless, not wanting to let him slack off.

"I'm not scared, I'm just afraid of the dark. The lights will definitely be turned off in a bit."

Mu Qing could tell that Xu Jianian was genuinely afraid of the dark: "It's alright. If he's afraid, don't force him, otherwise it will affect our game progress."

Shang Xu asked Xia Yu for his opinion.

"No, it has to be four people."

Xu Jianian thought to himself that he couldn't let the team down, since there were fans watching in the live stream. He gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll play!"

The group's action-orientedness was quite good.

After discussing it, each of them found a corner to stand in.

Suddenly, the secret room was plunged into darkness.

"Holy crap???"

Xu Jianian was completely dumbfounded; it was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Only the text on the card on the central platform is slightly fluorescent.

The moment the lights went out, netizens immediately turned on the live chat to protect themselves.

Although the live stream room had night vision, the images they saw were red, adding to the eeriness.

[The game begins. There will be ten laps in total. The four guests are invited to start the first lap.]

The four of them moved forward by feeling their way along the wall.

With every step they took, their hearts pounded for Xu Jianian.

Shang Xu complained, "Xu Jianian, your heartbeat is too loud..."
