The high-level line also failed.

Would it work if we broke less rules and tried a few more rounds?

Zhou Ming shook his head. If you don't break the rules, starting from the lowest level, becoming a mining area supervisor is a big problem, let alone taking higher positions such as mining area manager and area manager.

Moreover, after entering the senior management of a mining company, Zhou Ming discovered through nearly twenty years of continuous observation that those who can receive financial rewards are basically those "honest people" who are hard-working, not too outstanding in ability, quite satisfactory, and have no stains. The company will still use those who are shrewd and like to take advantage of loopholes, but they will never reward money.

Zhou Ming was very puzzled by this. Could it be that the top executives behind the company prefer honest people to smart people who are flexible and changeable?

But after getting in touch with some deeper things, Zhou Ming discovered that the company's top executives don't actually like honest people, but people who follow the rules.

Especially those who strictly abide by the rules, the company likes it the most.

The top people behind the scenes of the company hope that a set of rules can run stably for decades, centuries, or even longer, with just continuous fine-tuning in between. By manipulating this set of rules, they can control what they want to control. Everything, the most fearful thing is that there will be uncontrollable factors that will affect the operation of the rules.

Therefore, the top management of the company does not want the miners to control the fresh water in the water storage rock formations; they do not want the miners to know the secret that underground magma can generate electricity; and they do not want the miners to know that through photosynthesis, food can sprout and grow underground... …miners just need to know that they can only survive by going underground.

Rules are Area 51, something greater than anything else.

For Zhou Ming, taking the high-level route without breaking the rules is almost more difficult than reaching the sky.

"Could it be...the only way to go is the last one?"

But it seems that only this last path has a slight chance of getting money.

Even if this is possible, it is only a few tenths.

Killing competition.

Participate in the killing competition held by the upper class.

This is the last path that can be chosen, use the most violent killing to achieve your goal.

"Death Game"

"Death Racer"

"Hungry Games"

"Maze Warrior"

"Desert Island Survival"...

You can choose from these events, and you can often hear the broadcast commentary of these murderous competitions on the radio. You can even hear the scalp-numbing and extremely exciting screams, and the sounds of machetes hitting bones. Sounds, the sound of gurgling blood...

In addition, in Tie Qiang's several life experiences, in the fourth mining area next to the third mining area, there was a young miner who participated in "The Hunger Games" and successfully survived. In the end, he wore a suit and leather shoes and a shiny shirt. Hairspray, escorted by a team of soldiers, returned to his hometown. In front of countless fellow villagers, he delivered his "victory speech" and his outlook on the new life in the future... He was full of glory for a while.

Tie Qiang and his brother Tieshan also went to listen to this "victory speech". Tie Qiang felt that this was nothing to envy. Only one person survived out of 51 people. However, his brother Tieshan was very excited and soon signed up. Participated in "Game of Death".

Regardless of whether it is "Game of Death" or "Hunger Games", Zhou Ming has listened to the commentary of the two killing competitions for many times, and has a good understanding of the rules of the competition. He feels that "The Hunger Games" is more suitable for Tie Qiang to participate.

Why do you say that?

Because the "Game of Death" is short and intense, each of the 51 players wears a terminal on their wrist. As long as the enemy appears within a radius of 30 meters, the traces of nearby enemies will be displayed. At that time, they can use crossbows and javelins to Or with a machete, you only need to kill your opponent. The competition map is small, and the final winner can usually be decided within one day.

The map scope of "The Hunger Games" is relatively large, and the game lasts for 15 days, but each player is only given enough food to last for 2 days. The rest of the time, they either get food from the same kind or spend time in hunger. After 15 days, , the first player to walk out of the "Victory Gate" is the winner. Regardless of whether the remaining players are dead or not, after the Victory Gate is closed, the probability of coming out of the arena alive is extremely slim.

So Zhou Ming recommended "The Hunger Games" because compared to the simple and bloody "Death Game", "The Hunger Games" requires more brains. As long as you hide well and don't need to go through a brutal fight, you may be able to survive... …

The only troublesome thing is, how can he convince Tie Qiang that he, who is a bit greedy and afraid of death, is willing to sign up for the competition?

"It's nothing more than exaggerating the benefits and belittling the risks. Who wouldn't deceive people?"

After thinking about it, Zhou Ming started another game!

…

In the blink of an eye, Tie Qiang, who has been working in the mines for 6 years, is now 12 years old. He is lean and lean, with calm and long eyes. He usually doesn't talk much. The burden of life has given him the temperament of a young adult.

Especially the fight two years ago. After his father Tieman passed away, he had to work harder to support his family. Every time he went to the mine, he exuded a desperate aura.

"Tie Qiang, at mineral point 3BC94, there is a 30 kilogram piece of gold in that stone wall, worth 3,000 credits. Go dig it out..."

"Who? Who's talking?" Tie Qiang was startled by the voice that suddenly sounded in his head. He looked around, looking for the thing that made the sound.

"There's no need to look for it. Go and dig out that piece of gold. If you're late, someone else will dig it away." The voice in my head urged.

"All right……"

Tie Qiang was doubtful, but after finding the mine site, he dug out a huge piece of gold and earned more than 3,000 credits that usually took at least ten days to earn.

From this day on, Tie Qiang obeyed the advice of the old man in his mind and never doubted it.

"Tie Qiang, if you dig like this all your life, it will be useless. It won't change your destiny. The only thing that can change your destiny is to sign up for the killing competition and get a monetary reward..."

"Don't worry that you can't beat others. As long as you train according to the method I teach you, in five years at most, you will be invincible one-on-ten or one-on-one."

"What? The training is too hard, how about mining for the rest of your life? OK, you don't believe I can do it. When you are 22 years old, you will die in a mining accident. I will not tell you the time and place of the mining accident. Anyway, you are burdened by living like this... As for those precious ores, I will not tell you the specific burial place, you can just dig mines for the rest of your life! Anyway, you can only dig them for a few years."

"You said you were wrong and promised to continue training. You don't want to mine every day anymore and you want to live a few more years? Okay! I'll give you another chance. If you don't cherish this opportunity, I will remove it from your mind forever. disappear!"

When I was 18 years old, after signing up for "The Hunger Games", I left all my 100,000 credits to my mother. I followed a few staff members and boarded a high-speed maglev train, looking at the blurry scenery outside the window. Under the gray sky, Tie Qiang murmured: "Grandpa, can I survive? Among more than fifty people."

"You won't die as long as you do what I tell you." The voice in my head said.

A burst of exciting music sounded, and the overview of the last issue of the competition ended. After playing the introduction of the information cards of the 51 players in this issue of "The Hunger Games", the host said in an extremely high-pitched voice:

"Gentlemen and ladies! The 3832nd death feast of "The Hunger Games" has begun! Are the money in your pockets ready? Have you spotted the contestant you are looking forward to? Place your bets in advance, you can get higher Multiply, don’t bet? It doesn’t matter, you will fall madly in love with this game, starting from the first death flower blooming in front of you..."

"Tie Qiang, don't worry about running. Kill the guy chasing you! He's just a big clumsy guy. Go around behind him and use your nimble skills to kill him! Don't be afraid, just slash him lightly with your knife. Just the neck..."

"Okay! Well done! Put all the food in his bag into your own bag. This food can keep you alive for two more days..."

"The leaves of this tree are edible, and the roots of that grass contain a lot of sugar. Dig more and put them on your body. It has been eight days and everyone has almost finished eating. There should be a few guys starting Cannibals, be careful to avoid them, the hungry and red-eyed lunatics, no matter how skilled they are, they are hard to deal with..."

"What are you doing to save this woman? How long has it been? Why did your ridiculously childish sympathy show up at this time? Throw this woman away now. You have already injured an arm for this woman. Do you want to take her with you again?" , you will be killed by her!"

"Tie Qiang, I would like to advise you one last time. This woman is just pretending to be pitiful and taking advantage of you. Don't be deceived by her! She came to participate in "The Hunger Games" not to have sex with you, but to get money! You can't even see this Not coming out?"

"Pfft~!"

In front of the Victory Gate, Tie Qiang, who was about to be the first to enter, took a step forward. The moment he turned around, he felt a burst of pain and looked at a bloody sharp knife coming out of his chest. Under the sun, it was shining. A dazzling cold light... He couldn't help regretting for a while: Grandpa, I was wrong. If I were given another chance, I would never make this mistake again...

"Tie Qiang, leave that woman alone! You died in her hands in your last life. She took a knife and pierced your body from behind. She stepped on your body and entered the Victory Gate and took it away. The money that belongs to you... Do you want to experience this ending again?"

"Hahaha, you win! Tie Qiang, you are the final winner. The door to heaven has been opened to you. You can go to the paradise area immediately and live a new life!"

"Really? A new life..."

Holding tightly the copper-gold round "money" in his hand, with a radius of about an inch, painted with simple patterns, and made of unusually hard material, Tie Qiang felt filled with emotion.
