Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Special Trigger Conditions

Bai Youwei found it quite remarkable, saying, “Professor Song is really impressive, able to determine the number of players required to trigger the game.”

Chu Huaijin looked a bit awkward and explained, “Professor Song can determine the game’s distribution location and range through anomalies in the magnetic field, but as for the number of players required to trigger it…we have to figure it out ourselves.”

“Figure it out ourselves?” Bai Youwei was surprised, “How do you test that?”

Chu Huaijin, sitting under the lamp, appeared somewhat serious. He looked about the same age as Yan Qingwen, but his face was more rugged. He stood straight, his skin slightly dark. He didn’t resemble a commander-in-chief but rather a general charging into battle.

He said solemnly, “Normally, I, or the deputy leader, would lead the team into the gaming area to test. We start with two people, then three, then four, then five… adding one at a time until we enter the game. The number of people that allowed us to enter the game is the minimum number of players needed to trigger the game.”

Bai Youwei was even more surprised, “Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to get out?”

Chu Huaijin sighed with a bitter smile and shook his head, “Initially, it was indeed difficult, and we lost many team members… But now things have improved. Since the prop exchange system has been established, everyone brings props into the game, which has significantly increased the survival rate.”

Shen Fei, who had accompanied them, interjected, “Although the rules may seem harsh, you have no idea the sacrifices we’ve had to make each time we test a new game!”

His tone was slightly bitter, “The peace and tranquility in the city that we’re enjoying now is all thanks to the collective efforts of the research group and testing team!”

“Xiaofei,” Chu Huaijin stopped Shen Fei, then spoke in a pacifying manner, “There’s no need to say more. I believe that over time, everyone will understand our intentions.”

He turned to look at Shen Mo, as well as Chang Weicai and Pan Xiaoxin behind him.

“The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Right now, our abilities are limited, and there are many shortcomings in the base’s construction. Eventually… eventually, we will try to exempt the elderly and children from playing the games,” Chu Huaijin said, “For now, each core member in the organization can obtain a maximum of three quotas, exempt from the assigned games, to conveniently take care of their family.”

Shen Mo slightly nodded, “You’ve put in a lot of thought. Not everyone might have done as well as you.”

Bai Youwei, still interested in the game aspect, asked, “How many people have you tested the games nearby with at the most?”

Chu Huaijin told her, “The game in the vicinity that required the most number of players to be triggered was a marathon game with 32 people. However, for game No. 24, we tested with over a hundred people but were not able to trigger the game. Professor Song believes that either the number of people is still not sufficient, or the game has special triggering conditions.”

While they were speaking, the group had already walked to the end of the corridor, on the right was a glass sensor door.

The sensor was no longer in use, and the glass door was wide open. Two security personnel stood on both sides, one of whom Bai Youwei recognized.

It was Yu Yaqing, the stern female team leader from yesterday.

Bai Youwei, who had been asking about the games, suddenly saw Yu Yaqing and was taken aback. She wanted to ask something but forgot what it was.

Yu Yaqing didn’t give Bai Youwei any surplus attention. Her expression was normal when she saw them.

She saluted Chu Huaijin, her movements brisk as she moved to the side.

Chu Huaijin led them in while the guard stayed outside the glass door.

The room inside was brightly lit, with a number of tables arranged around. The tables were laden with fine wine and delicious food, and there were seven or eight scattered guests sitting at them.

“Please, sit here,” Chu Huaijin courteously said, “We can talk slowly once everyone is seated. The dinner was postponed due to an unexpected meeting yesterday consider this meal as our apology to you all.”
