"Sounds reasonable," Dan thought.
Dan was by now near the blocky structure with the big numeral "10" above it. Each of the four faces of the structure had four large doors outlined on it—one door for each of the sixteen sections of the level. Dan stepped up to the door marked "4" and it was immediately outlined in red. A voice said, "Travelers are reminded of the special restrictions now enforced at the governmental sections. To enter, you must present valid authorization papers, or state an acceptable reason for entering."
Dan stood perfectly still. He was fairly sure now that he must get into this section. But how?
At that moment, the lights of the huge wall of moving letters caught his attention, and Kielgaard's voice said, "Dan, look to the left, about halfway up."
Dan looked and saw moving letters spell out:
S WANTED ON LEVEL 10 ALL CREDITS PAID SHORT TERM EMPLOYMENT
*MEN WITH FAST REFLEXES WANTED ON LEVEL 10
Dan realized he had seen parts of this ad spelled out twice at the terminal entrance. He didn't know if it was a trap or something he could use. He said, "I'm interested in a job on Level 10."
"You have examined the record?"
Dan had no idea what this meant. He said, "I understand men with fast reflexes are wanted on Level 10."
