GGS-CHAPTER 1091 COLLECTIVE DUMBFOUNDED PART 1

Due to the large number of people, there were a total of six queues. The first person in the first queue was considered the first, the first person in the second queue was the second, and so on.

The first person stepped forward, this person was a tall and thin young man who seemed a bit excited. He was just an ordinary office worker with a monthly salary of a few thousand yuan. One Million Yuan was an astronomical figure for him, and he couldn't help but feel excited at the thought of getting that.

The eight muscular men made way for him, and the tall and thin young man approached the lamp. He took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag, unscrewed the cap, and held it above the semi-spherical barrier, preparing to pour the water directly onto the oil lamp.

It was originally a simple task, but because of his nervousness, his hand trembled, and his movements became even more cautious.

The slow progress made the people behind him feel discontented.

"Hey, can you hurry it up? There are people behind you."

"He's using water right from the start, that's too much."

"I have a feeling that he might be a plant."

"It's very likely. Once the water is poured, there's no way the lamp won't be extinguished. If we follow in line, won't we be made a fool of?"

Their dissatisfaction didn't stem from not being able to spare the time but from the fear that the tall and thin young man would directly extinguish the oil lamp.

Some deliberately spoke, trying to disturb the young man and make his handshake even more, hoping that he would be even more nervous and accidentally drop the mineral water bottle to the ground.

Another group of people felt that this was a trap. They were convinced that the tall and thin young man was definitely a plant, so they left the queue and prepared to leave. They felt like they were being taken for a ride and were very unhappy about it.

"Oh my, would you really win One Million Yuan by extinguishing it?" In the private room on the second floor of the Longteng International Hotel, Lin Hao, Xiao Rui, Shi Lei, and the others were all shocked.

"A'Jing, is it really possible to extinguish it just by pouring water on it?" An excited male classmate asked.

The other classmates also had rapid breathing. Some had higher salaries, while others had lower salaries, but even if they earned only a few thousand yuan a month, One Million Yuan was not a small amount. Who wouldn't want to participate in this event if extinguishing such a small lamp meant winning One Million Yuan?

Such a great opportunity, where else could they find it? They all believed that there must be some trick or wordplay involved in this.

"It's true. According to what that girl said, blowing, using a fire extinguisher, or pouring water are all allowed. As long as you can extinguish it, you'll receive One Million Yuan, without any deception," Su Jing said with a smile.

"Oh my, you're not just making us watch a show, you're actually torturing us. If we had known earlier, we would have rushed to the front," The crowd's eyes were almost popping out when they heard Su Jing.

If it weren't for the long queue and the fact that they would already be too late by the time they reach down, they would have rushed out without looking back. They couldn't help but feel regretful now.

Watching the tall and thin young man finally calm down, his hand no longer shaking, they saw him pour the bottle of mineral water directly onto the burning wick. They all felt their hearts bleeding. The One Million Yuan that was within reach had slipped away from them.

…

Witnessing the tall and thin young man pouring the water bottle on the top of the fire, the mineral water fell straight onto the wick.

Many people sighed helplessly in their hearts. With the water poured like this, how could the oil lamp not extinguish? The queue began to loosen, and more people started leaving the line.

However, as they listened, under the pouring of mineral water, the wick emitted a sizzling sound and it continued for one second, two seconds, and three seconds, maintaining the same sound. The small flame on the wick, surprisingly, didn't extinguish by the water.

"Huh?" Everyone was momentarily stunned when they saw this scene, including the tall and thin young man. His eyes widened, and he grew a bit anxious. He pressed the bottle harder, accelerating the pouring of water.

With a plop, the remaining half bottle of water heavily fell onto the wick. The flame was pressed down by the water, and it was as if it was about to be extinguished.

However, as the water passed on the flame, it stood back up. Despite the appearance of the lamp being covered in half a centimeter of mineral water, it didn't affect the continued burning of the wick.

"What's going on? Why can't the water extinguish it?"

"This reminds me of the Olympic flame. The Olympic flame cannot be extinguished by simply pouring water on it either, right?"

"You're just making baseless assumptions here. The Olympic flame is not that extraordinary. It does have some extraordinary aspects, like the Beijing Olympic Torch, which has a 'Dual Flame' design. After the gas was released, a portion of the flame enters the main combustion chamber, creating a diffused and full flame on the appearance of the torch. Another portion enters the pre-combustion chamber, maintaining a smaller but stable flame inside the torch. In extreme situations where the main flame goes out, the pre-combustion chamber can still sustain the flame, ensuring that the torch doesn't extinguish. However, its resilience is limited to strong winds of up to 65 kilometers per hour and heavy rainfall of 50 millimeters per hour. If a bottle of water were poured on it, which is much more than 50 millimeters per hour, it would definitely be extinguished."

"But here, it's clearly only one wick burning, and yet it can't be extinguished by pouring a bottle of water on it. What's the principle behind this? It's simply amazing."

"If it were that easy for you to figure out, it wouldn't be considered a scientific achievement."

"We once again underestimated the Galactic Corporation Group. It seems this could really be the latest research product from that amazing company. After all, looks can be deceiving."

The people in the queue became excited once again. Although it seemed that extinguishing the lamp had become more difficult, it also made the reward activity by the Galactic Corporation Group feel even more genuine. The sense of being fooled disappeared from the hearts of everyone here.
