Chapter 250 The Final Challenge
In the venue where the heroes started, the undocumented knight and others entered a small dark room soon after entering the arena. They will enter the arena in order, and the content of the challenge cannot be known in advance.
"Then I will announce the rules of this challenge." Mr. Da Yuan said holding a piece of paper, "The insane gangsters took a group of hostages, divided them into two groups and locked them in two secret rooms, and each secret room was equipped with poisonous gas bombs. .After defeating the bandits, the challenger as a hero seized a controller from them with two buttons on it. Press one of the buttons, the people in the corresponding room will be rescued, but the gas bomb in the other room will be activated , the people inside are very dead. If the secret room is forcibly opened, the gas bomb will still be activated by itself."
"At the same time, the two-minute countdown has begun. When the countdown ends, the poison gas bombs in the two secret rooms will explode. So, how should the challengers make a choice? What is their justice?"
"Oh, this is a classic dilemma," said the host, "save one, and the other will die. In real life, heroes also encounter such dilemmas, but usually between themselves and others. make decisions."
"Yes, it's like saving the wife first or saving the child first. You can't say which side is right. I feel that the purpose of this question is to test the courage of the challenger. Justice is sometimes cruel." Teacher Da Huang Speak your mind.
On the site, the staff was busy arranging the layout. They pulled two transparent cubes and placed them at the two ends of the site, about 200 meters apart.
The top of the cube is painted with red and blue colors as marks.
18 extras entered the two cubes in two batches. Among them, there were 10 people in the red cube, all of whom were in their fifties and sixties; there were 8 people in the blue cube, all of whom were young people in their twenties and thirties.
In the center of their connection, there is a small cylindrical platform, where the challenger will stand to start his challenge.
After the arrangement was completed, the first challenger walked out of the small black room to accept the challenge.
"The first challenger is the B-level hero Lightning Max. He has impressive speed and explosive power. He has defeated many tiger-level monsters by himself. Although he was defeated by the ghost-level monster Deep Sea King, he was not harmed. image in people's minds."
"Can you stop mentioning Aquaman, I'm just a B-level hero." Lightning Max said to himself with a cold face.
Under the guidance of the staff, he walked to the central platform. After reading the rules, the two-minute countdown began.
‘Which one wisely came up with this topic? ’ Lightning Max was in a mess, he looked at the cubes on both sides, and the people inside all had expressions of helplessness and weeping.
'Damn it! How do I choose? ’ He hesitated, but the countdown had already entered a minute, and if a decision was not made soon, then everyone in both rooms would die.
Lightning Max gritted his teeth and rushed towards the red cube.
"With 46 seconds remaining, player Max finally started to act. He rushed to the red cube. Did he choose to save the people inside the red cube?"
"It's a good whip kick. With the help of the special dynamite shoes, Lightning Max hit a shocking blow. But! The result is regrettable, the cube didn't move at all. Player Max hasn't given up yet, he is still continuing to attack! "
With 5 seconds left, looking at the cube without a trace, Lightning Max finally despaired. With tears in his eyes, he knelt down towards the old people inside, and pressed the blue button on the remote control with his right hand.
"sorry!"
There was a creaking sound, and the blue cube on the other side was opened, but the red cube in front of it was gradually covered by thick smoke, and the old people inside fell to the ground one by one, closing their eyes.
"Damn! Damn!" Max beat the ground hard, his face full of unwillingness and sadness.
Although it is fake, it makes people feel bad.
‘If this kind of thing really happens, can I just kneel here helplessly? ’ He hesitated in his heart.
While the challenge was quickly over, many felt the same way when they saw Flash Max's true feelings.
"If I were there, I don't think I would be able to do it at all. This is a heavy human life, as if I killed them with my own hands." The host sighed.
“So I admire heroes. They often have to bear the pressure and pain that we don’t have to bear.”
"yes."
The audience on the stage were also discussing.
"If I had to choose, I would be the same as Lightning Max, choose to save the young people. After all, those old men have lived long enough, so it doesn't hurt to die."
"Haha, I'm so filial, do you dare to go home and say that to your parents?"
"That, that's different!"
"If you just look at the number of people, I will choose to save the red side. There are two more people."
"How can the quality of life be measured by quantity? According to me, it should be counted who survived and contributed more to society. Maybe there are old people who are famous professors and scientists. It would be a pity to die."
"Do you dare to say that young people will not be able to become professor scientists in the future?"
"Stupid, how can the uncertain be compared with the certain?"
"Why do I feel that the issues discussed by you are going astray? Shouldn't you be discussing how to save everyone?"
"Impossible, the author of the question has restricted the hostages that can only save one of them."
“.”
Choose to save the red side or the blue side, different people have different opinions, and no one can convince the other.
"Actually, no matter which side you choose, it means that the other side is given up. Such a result is undoubtedly our negligence." Glasses was also very uncomfortable, and he couldn't find a way to get the best of both worlds.
If you let him go up to challenge, you should choose the same as Lightning Max, and try to break the cube by yourself.
"Saitama, what about you? Would you do this?"
"Me." Saitama pulled his hair with some annoyance, and said, "If possible, I would choose to find out the person who made the question and beat him up, or kill the culprit before things become like this."
"Oh, it's really you." Glasses shook his head and laughed, "But you may not be able to beat the person who made the question, so we can only do what you said and try to avoid this situation."
The author of the question is most likely Chairman Aomori. I don’t know what his meaning is.
At the judges' table, Aomori listened to their discussion, showing a vague smile.
The following challengers came on stage one after another, some chose to save the blue side, some chose to save the red side, and some randomly chose the lucky side according to God's will.
Then, it was the turn of the Venerable Vest to challenge.
"The Venerable Vest is an A-level hero and has many fans. Will he bring us different surprises? Let us wait and see."
Like many previous challengers, he first chose to use force to open the cube.
I saw him standing on one edge of the cube, protruding muscles like poured steel, and holding the two sides of the cube with his palm-sized hands, exerting all his strength.
"Vest strength, break it!" Under the full force of the vest, the cube made a series of unbearable sounds.
Finally, when there were 6 seconds left in the time, the cube could not withstand the huge force, and a hole was broken. At the same time, the mechanism was triggered, and "poisonous gas" was emitted from it.
"My venerable vest will not let you have trouble!" He tore open the crack, let out a breath, and then inhaled suddenly. His powerful lung capacity allowed him to **** all the "poisonous gas" into his body.
With one second remaining at the end, he presses the red button.
"Friends from the audience!" The host shouted excitedly: "The Venerable Vest managed to save everyone with his own strange power. This is the first challenge to a successful contestant!"
"Vest Vest Master! Vest Venerable Master!" After a brief silence, the audience burst into loud cheers.
"However, at the end, the Venerable Vest chose to inhale the 'poisonous gas' by himself. I am afraid that he would have died of the poison early, and the possibility of pressing the button is very slim." Teacher Rhubarb raised an objection.
"It is indeed possible that the Venerable Vest took advantage of a loophole, and may be deducted a few points. It depends on the judges' thoughts."
"I think Venerable Vest did a good job." Banggu first praised, "He showed us the justice in his heart—doing everything to save the people. This is what a well-deserved hero does."
"The idea is very good, but the operation is average." Flash's evaluation is simple and clear.
Without a doubt, the Venerable Vest got the highest score so far.
"8.75 points! Can the Venerable Vest maintain this advantage and successfully win the title. Let's continue to see the performance of the next challenger."
"The penultimate challenger is the B-level hero Undocumented Knight. He defeated the ghost-level monster King of the Deep Sea alone, became famous overnight, gained the admiration of many people, and was regarded as a new star of the Hero Association. What kind of answer will it bring us?"
"No license! Come on!" Saitama shouted loudly from the audience.
"Senior undocumented, come on!" Glasses cheered him on equally enthusiastically.
"If you are undocumented, you should be fine." Saitama sometimes competes with undocumented and glasses, and knows their growth.
"Senior should be able to break the cube after transforming, but." Glasses said worriedly: "His skills are all powerful range skills. While breaking the cube, it is very likely to cause damage to the hostages inside."
"That's right, so what should I do?" Saitama asked worriedly.
Glasses shook his head and said, "I don't know either, I hope he doesn't go into a corner."
On the field, the undocumented knight chose to run towards the blue cube like the vested venerable.
Without saying a word, he turned into a red knight while running, and the red flame flying backwards was concentrated on his fist and blasted towards the cube.
However, after accepting his punch, the solid cube was only a little red, and it quickly returned to its original shape when it was blown by the wind.
'what to do? You can't break this thing without using all your strength. If you use all your strength, the people inside may be injured by the aftermath. '
The poisonous gas is fake, it’s okay to inhale it, but his skills are real, the kind that will go to the hospital if he is injured.
The undocumented knight naturally couldn't choose to hurt others to complete the challenge. He stood beside the cube, lost in thought.
"It seems that the undocumented knight can't break the cube, is he going to give up?"
"The gap between a B-level hero and an A-level hero is not small." Teacher Da Huang seemed relieved, and said, "The performance of the unlicensed knight at this time also makes people wonder how he could beat the A-level hero in the first place." Heroes are helpless ghost-level monsters."
"Well, maybe the Venerable Vest is stronger, and he is also one of the best A-level heroes." The host helped to explain, and then found something, and said in surprise: "Look, the undocumented knight is from his pocket. I took out something from the inside, is it a mobile phone?"
"No way?"
Under the amazed gaze of all the audience, the undocumented knight took out his mobile phone, selected the top phone number, and pressed the dial button.
‘I know that I cannot save them by myself, but I still have a group of like-minded partners! '
Jingle Bell!
Saitama took out the vibrating phone from his pocket, put it to his ear after switching it on.
"Hi, I'm Saitama."
"I'm undocumented, and now I'm in trouble, can you help me?"
"Does it need to be said? I'll come right away!" Saitama squatted slightly, then jumped up and bounced into the air.
"And me!" The glasses transformed, and stepped on the water to rush over to the undocumented side.
"So there is still such an operation." Lightning Max, who was sitting on the sidelines after the challenge, laughed: "I'm coming too. What I didn't finish just now, I want to finish it beautifully!"
Driven by them, one hero after another rushed to help.
As expected, they successfully rescued everyone.
The audience was stunned, and it took a while before thunderous applause broke out.
"Unbelievable operation!" The host was so excited that he almost couldn't speak: "One party is in trouble and all parties support, this is a hero! Heroes are never just for one person, they are a group of people with the same lofty spirit!"
"I admit that the scene of everyone helping together is very touching." Teacher Da Huang whispered BB: "But this is not in compliance with the rules. This is a challenge from undocumented knights. How can we ask others to help?"
"Well, it seems that the rules don't state that you can't ask others for help. It depends on the judges' opinion."
"I think this is very logical." Rilun, the leader of the Juggernaut Association, said: "If you encounter a problem that you can't solve alone, of course you need help from other capable people. It is a kind of problem to take everything on yourself. Showing arrogance."
"Yes." Atomic Warrior also nodded and said: "Before officially leaving the teacher, I don't exclude disciples from helping each other. One more sword means more chances of winning."
"If the premise is to complete the task, the choice of the undocumented knight is not wrong." Flash believes in the theory of results, regardless of the process, only look at the results.
After being highly affirmed by the judges, the undocumented knight ranked first with a high score of 9.4.
