What does having a mirror mean and how to decipher it?
The trap in this last room turned out to be so simple!
"If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have stooped so low!" Edgar couldn't help feeling very angry and somewhat regretful!
Bristol remained silent, carefully observing the liquid on the ground. He noticed that although the liquid flowed everywhere, it generally maintained a consistent shape, all heading in the southeast direction.
Following this direction, Bristol soon spotted a protruding nail on the floor not far away.
Edgar followed Bristol's gaze and naturally saw the nail as well. His face turned red instantly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Just as he said there was nothing to worry about, a nail appeared right in front of them!
Edgar felt like this nail was practically slapping him in the face!
However, he still didn't think this trap posed any difficulty, at most it would just be a bump on the head!
The viewers in the live stream were absolutely engaged, flooding the chat with numerous messages!
[What's the big deal! It's just a nail, who can't see that!]
[Why do I smell vinegar? Who's speaking so sourly, seems like some people are jealous of our clever Bristol!]
[Well, what can we do, outstanding people always tend to trigger envy in others!]
[Such a small mechanism, how could it stump our Bristol! Ridiculous!]
[It's just a nail, a little prick is nothing to be afraid of! Worst case tetanus!]
Bristol looked at the nail not far away, furrowing his brows slightly, and thought to himself:
"With my height, even if I fall, there's still a small distance between my head and the nail. It shouldn't cause any injury."
Then Bristol had a thought and typed into the search bar:
[What is the purpose of this nail on the floor?]
The system quickly loaded the answer.
[After stepping on the liquid on the floor, the player will quickly fall towards the direction of the nail, hitting the back of their head on the floor. The intense pain will make the player reach back to touch the back of their head. At this moment, the player's hand will be cut deeply by the nail, and the scent of human blood will attract the rats in the room to break free from their cages and tear apart all the players!]
Bristol was surprised to see the answer on the panel. Indeed, after a fall, most people would instinctively reach back to touch the back of their head to check for injuries.
It could be said that the person who designed this nail accurately predicted the subconscious behavior of most people.
Although it was just a small nail, the series of consequences it triggered were terrifying.
Bristol couldn't help but feel a bit curious about the designer of this death game. What kind of person could come up with these ingenious levels?
He carefully avoided the liquid on the floor and approached the nail's position. To avoid getting cut, he wrapped his hand with his clothes and pulled the nail out.
Seemingly casually tossed, the nail landed perfectly into the nearby cage filled with rats.
The sudden appearance of the nail seemed to enrage the rats, and they went berserk, banging their heads against the cage!
Each one of them ended up with a bloody head, but they didn't stop!
Edgar watched the rats, now behaving like mad creatures, with a sense of unease creeping into his heart. He couldn't help but take a couple of steps back!
"Bristol, these rats won't come out, will they?" Edgar asked nervously.
Bristol ignored him and turned to look at the remaining murals on the wall.
Seeing this, Edgar thought to himself:
"What's so great about him? Just wait until we get out, then we'll see!"
The viewers in the live stream couldn't stand watching anymore, and they began to comment:
[Looks like Edgar is getting scared too! What's so scary about rats in cages!]
[I suggest Bristol feeds Edgar to the rats!]
[When Bristol threw the nail, it made a beautiful parabolic curve. It reminded me of that perfect three-pointer in history!]
In the corner of the room, the Billy doll, which had been watching Bristol all this time, naturally observed his every move.
It wasn't clear whether Bristol completely understood the purpose of the nail or simply pulled it out to avoid hitting his head in case of a fall.
However, based on everything Bristol had done before, the Billy doll leaned more towards the idea that Bristol knew the nail's purpose.
After all, Bristol had successfully passed through six rooms in a row, dealing with several troublemakers along the way. How could he be fooled by such a small trick in front of him?
If he couldn't even see through this, he wouldn't have stood here unscathed until now!
After pulling out the nail, the true face of the fourth painting hanging on the wall was revealed.
A young girl was depicted hanging naked in mid-air, her body covered in mysterious symbols, with flames burning fiercely below her. People around her were dancing in a strange manner.
"See! I told you that little girl is a demon! Otherwise, she must have done too many bad things! That's why everyone wants to burn her to death!" Edgar remarked, thinking himself wise.
Bristol glanced at him, feeling utterly puzzled!
He couldn't understand how someone as ignorant, selfish, and foolish as Edgar had managed to survive this long.
Could it be that one could really live this long solely by being shameless?
Then, Bristol took down the final painting.
There was only one bold red word written on the back!
Mirror!
Bristol typed into the search bar:
[What does the word on the back mean?]
The answer quickly appeared on the panel! [It means "mirror" in ancient times.]
Bristol abruptly turned around, looking at all the mirrors in the room!
In the live stream chat, some enthusiastic viewers had already looked up the word in the dictionary, and the chat was flooded with messages!
[ I looked it up in the dictionary, it means "mirror"!]
[Bristol is simply amazing, he saw through such a difficult word at a glance!]
[Unlike that idiot Edgar, who just keeps acting dumb every day!]
[Why is the gap between people so huge? I'm starting to doubt life!]
[Please, dear God, next time distribute the intelligence more evenly when creating people!]
All the mirrors in the room were shattered into pieces, clinging to the vanity like a spider's web.
However, aside from this, Bristol couldn't see anything special.
"Bristol, what's wrong with those mirrors?" Edgar asked, turning to look at the mirrors when he saw Bristol suddenly turning towards them!
In the mirrors, his reflection was fragmented into numerous neat little squares, which made Edgar feel a bit scared!
His expression became extremely tense, and he kept inching closer to Bristol!
As he looked at the familiar patterns on the mirrors, a flash of insight quickly crossed Bristol's mind.
He furrowed his brows tightly, looked at the mirrors in the room, then turned to look at the fourth painting hanging on the wall.
