Chapter 82: Ringtones (2-in-1)
Before the gunshots rang out, there were already people responding on the hospital floors and courtyards.
In the dense trees of the nearby courtyard, a spider the size of a palm crawled. Six spider eyes glowed crimson on the dim trunk of the tree. looked at Li Changhe quietly.
And on the side wall of the hospital, there was also the sound of heavy footsteps on purpose.
As a [player], Li Changhe stepped into the hospital at the moment. The quest was triggered.
Originally, there were two people in the [mission], and they discovered the third party for the first time.
Respond quickly. Well... The third party seems to be a bit of a problem...
And Li Changhe's response was the gunfire that resounded through the night sky.
This is what [players] do when they accidentally meet each other within the scope of the mission.
Warn each other of their existence. or the signal to evacuate, or to converge.
In fact, in real-life missions, the probability of encountering [players] should be very low.
This is not like a quest or story quest, which can be triggered as long as the number of people who meet the conditions is reached. It doesn't matter where the player is.
For example, in [Mysterious Island], the participating [players] come from all over the world.
The real quest, as the name suggests, is to trigger the quest clue in the present world and find the quest point.
It is possible that there are other [players] who have obtained other clues.
After all, judging from Li Changhe's own analysis, this psychiatric hospital has had many angry incidents.
In addition to the Mountaineer, there may be other victims who will allow other [players] to obtain quest items.
But it's still that problem, this is not a quest, and the time difference between the [players] and the [players] to start the quest is not the same.
Quest quest, holding the quest item, after successfully triggering the quest. You can only wait for everyone to gather.
The real quest is more like an unknown world boss, and it is dealt with when it is discovered.
You don't just leave player experience and in-game currency at that.
And Li Changhe got the camera of a mountaineer a month ago.
If you are an efficient player, you will find this place as early as this time and complete the task.
When he was on the road, Li Changhe was also worried that his task would be completed by others in advance.
Now, I have met two [players] who are also doing this [task].
What a coincidence... So much so that this seems abnormal.
In fact, there are two possibilities.
The first one, really a coincidence. This task can be dangerous or troublesome. One didn't finish. So much so that several [players] happened to be far apart.
The second kind .... These two men have ulterior motives. Ambush in the real-life mission location and shoot at the [players] who are coming. Wait for the rabbit!
"According to the plan, I will not proliferate perception. Yun Ting in the ink jade warned: "Be careful. ”
"Well, if it's not right, I'll run away as soon as possible. Li Changhe's gaze swept the trunk of the tree not far away, and a sharp-eyed black eagle was perched on the branch.
If there was a real situation, Li Changhe would use [Shadow Walk] to come to that tree trunk as soon as possible. Turn on [Thunder's Breath] to escape from the hospital.
and backhand a [Necromantic Parchment].
Regardless of whether the other party dies or not, Li Changhe took out his bicycle and ran. With his riding skills, it wasn't hard to escape.
This is the benefit of [Realistic Mission], if you don't get right, run away.
Brother Ting, as a high-energy non-human species, has to spread perception.
You can quickly know the fluctuations of the battle within hundreds of meters, and the closer you are, the stronger your perception.
But there is a drawback, if the other party is also a high-energy person.
The collision of two perceptions will make each other aware of each other's existence.
Although the exact location cannot be determined, there is a danger of detection.
Therefore, when it is determined that there are players nearby, Yun Ting's perception will not be released at will.
The same is true at this moment, Li Changhe, who is wearing the vest of the insect god, is in the eyes of other [players] or transcendentals. It's just an ordinary person, without the slightest sense of threat.
Vigilance may decline with it, and it is by relying on this disguise that Li Changhe is packaged as a newcomer who has just become a [player].
Brother Ting's existence can become a hole card.
Li Changhe held a carbine and looked at the figures approaching from both directions. The eyes under the hood flickered, and the [Eagle Pupil Demon Eye] silently opened.
Take a closer look at these two players who arrived first.
The player who appears in the courtyard trees gradually steps out of the shadows.
Let Li Changhe see her appearance, she is a female [player], about 1.6 meters tall, with a ponytail.
He is on the thin side, wearing black jeans and a black sweater. Draped in a dark plush cape.
He wears a fox mask on his face and holds a worn-out doll in his hand.
As for the one standing at the door of the hospital.
It was a man, about 1.9 meters tall, wearing a khaki cowboy hat, a bullet belt, jeans and a leather jacket, and a terrifying revolver stuck in his waist.
Like a western cowboy who came out of a big dead redemption.
I don't know if it's confidence in my own strength, or if I've already disguised it.
His face was not concealed in the slightest.
Li Changhe could see the face under the cowboy hat was a middle-aged face covered with stubble.
He wears a black blindfold in his right eye and holds a cigar in his mouth.
The left eye looked cautiously at the other two. However, it looks more haggard.
"The good news is that neither of these men is above LV10. Li Changhe thought to himself.
While Li Changhe was observing them, they were also predicting Li Changhe's strength.
From their point of view, Li Changhe is a middle-aged man wearing a storm suit, an old-fashioned carbine, and a mask.
Even though it is slightly concealed, the wrinkles on the sides of the eyes are still very noticeable.
There was no sense of danger either.
Judging from the disguise of the skimming and the guns used, he looks like a novice [player].
Of course, the two also know that this is most likely also a disguise. didn't underestimate Li Changhe, and paid part of his attention to him.
The three of them were wary of each other, and they were all separated by a distance of about ten meters.
"Two, let's talk about it?" Li Changhe opened his mouth first, and his voice was low: "It can't be such a coincidence?
The cowboy pressed the revolver on his waist with his left hand and responded with a smile: "At present, it seems that it is indeed too much of a coincidence." But I was the first to arrive here, two days before you. To talk about coincidences... Hehe. ”
The only remaining eye of the cowboy reveals a sharp gaze.
"I'd better stop you from doing anything stupid..."
Li Changhe saw that his arm was drooping, as if he was going to draw a gun and shoot at any time. Slowly retreated, clutching the carbine in his hand.
And on the trunk of a tree next to the female [player], a spider crawled over. The forelimbs are slightly raised, as if they are about to pounce at any moment.
At swords' points.
The woman in the fox mask spoke, and a mixed electric voice came from the mask: "You can leave." I've reminded you more than once. ”
"Huh, why should I follow your arrangement?" the cowboy asked in a cold voice, very angry.
Obviously, this is not the first contact between the two.
The cowboy doesn't want to give up on this realistic mission, and the fox should think the same way. There is even a suspicion of monopolizing the task.
"Two, don't be impatient. Can't we arrange the task first and complete it together?" Li Changhe was already close to the entrance of the hospital. He persuaded him: "The three of us work together, and we will be able to complete it soon, right? It's almost the New Year, hurry up and finish the work." Go home for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”
A kind old attitude.
"Hey, dude, you can see clearly. The cowboy glanced at Li Changhe and said: "Although it is a realistic mission, I don't know what I will meet, one more teammate, one more safety." I was the first to offer cooperation... It's a pity that this woman has been getting in my way. She controlled a few spiders and followed me around the hospital. Who knows where she's helping?"
Also, players cooperate because of a common enemy or goal.
No matter who it is, they don't dare to hand over their backs to a guy who can't distinguish between friend and foe.
When you're dealing with something, your teammates stab you in the back. But that's it.
"I don't believe you. The fox girl said, "My teammates were here a few days ago. Successfully triggered the quest, but he disappeared afterward. [Friends] can see that he is still alive, but he has not replied to any messages from me. ”
"What does that have to do with me? How many times have you said it, there are no living people in this hospital!" Cowboy sneered, "Or do you suspect that I did it to your teammates?"
"So it's up to me to investigate. As soon as I find a clue to my teammates, I'll leave immediately. It's a task you can do for yourself. The fox girl said, "In the same way, I don't believe you." Naturally, I don't want you to be involved. ”
"Then you can also wait for Lao Tzu to complete the task, and then investigate slowly!" Cowboy sneered and said, "Who doesn't have a [friend]?
This sentence is also said to you. The fox girl said indifferently.
The two did not give in to each other.
Li Changhe's eyes flashed, and things were a little troublesome.
As it stands.
Fox Girl's teammates once successfully triggered the quest here, but for some unknown reason, they disappeared.
The fox girl came here to find and rescue her teammates.
When another [player] cowboy is spotted, it is natural to consider him as the first target of suspicion.
Her teammates most likely had an accident in the hospital, so she wanted to find as many clues as possible.
He has been hindering the cowboy and trying to force him away. Worried about what clues he destroys.
And the cowboy means that he didn't see the fox girl's teammates at all.
Maybe time has diverged, or maybe something happened to that teammate somewhere else.
Anyway, I rushed here two days ago to see that the task had not been completed.
Excitedly planning to do a mission, but was stopped by the fox girl who arrived after him.
Judging from the methods of the fox girl, she should be a transcendent person like voodoo.
Use the Voodoo puppet to attack your opponent from a distance.
Herself was carefully hiding somewhere, and the cowboy couldn't find her yet.
This quest can only be triggered at night, and the quest disappears as soon as the sun comes out.
The two rested during the day and fought at night.
If it weren't for a third party... The unexpected appearance of the game-breaker, they estimate that they can still make trouble for a long time.
And the game-breaker is Li Changhe.
His appearance made the two temporarily put away their hostile attitude towards each other. Even at the beginning, he thought that Li Changhe was the opponent's teammate.
"It's a pity... I don't believe either of them. Li Changhe's eyes flashed, and he couldn't rule out the possibility that he was acted.
They may be trying to dispel their doubts and let themselves enter the encirclement on their own initiative.
There are several suspicions, and the fox girl's request is just for the cowboy to leave the hospital temporarily.
He could have hid nearby and intervened halfway. This is already very dangerous for the fox girl.
What was she trying to confirm? Why did she bite the cowboy so hard and not let him explore? Are you afraid of what he will do?
Cowboys and vixen are equally suspicious.
Both men were hiding some information and didn't say it.
In fact, the three [players] already have a chain of suspicion among themselves.
"There is no way to continue such a stalemate. So be it. The hospital building is exactly three floors, and we have three players. The cowboy said, "Let's scatter out to investigate the head office, right? If you don't believe me, how about I be separated from you?"
Li Changhe spread his hands and said, "But if the two of you are in a gang and attack me, won't I die?"
"Then it's up to you, or help me keep an eye on her. Just let me get the job done with peace of mind. You also have experience to take. The cowboy sighed and looked at the fox girl impatiently: "Now two to one." You're still going to get in the way of the two of us?"
The fox girl looked at the two of them, was silent for a moment, and walked towards the gate of the hospital building.
The cowboy subconsciously held the revolver at his waist, and his left eye bloomed with a cold glow.
Unmoved, the fox girl walked around the cowboy and stopped at the gate and said, "I can share information." But I have to prioritize floors. ”
The appearance of Li Changhe made her have to make a choice. Harassing two people at the same time is obviously an act of seeking death.
"Wouldn't it have been like this earlier?" the cowboy and the vixen distanced themselves a little. In the past few days, I have been harassed a lot.
looked at Li Changhe and asked, "Brother, are you participating?"
"It's coming. Li Changhe slowly approached with his carbine in his hand.
At the door of the floor, the three of them were on guard against each other.
"So, back to the topic. Cowboy leaned to the side, swept his left eye over the two and said, "Although the plan has changed, let's cooperate for the time being." What's the message you're talking about?"
"One more. ”
"What do you mean?"
"He told me that there was one more in this mental hospital," the fox said. ”
"What's more? is it some kind of code word?" asked Cowboy with a frown.
"No, he told me in [Friends] that there was one more, and there was no response. I thought about what I had encountered. The vixen touched her voodoo doll and said, "It may be some kind of ghostly trait." As for how to guess, you can do it yourself. ”
"What's this called?" Cowboy looked back at Li Changhe: "Brother, do you understand?"
"One more... I guess I can only think about it after seeing those things. Li Changhe responded, his voice low: "Is there any more information?"
"I do know one, but I heard it from the staff of this mental hospital back then. Cowboy said: "After the fire, there were plans to rebuild. But one night, the night watchman heard the bell. ”
"Ringtones?"
"Yes, the psychiatric hospital is said to have designed this kind of lights-out bell before. ”
"That's it?"
"The main play is in the back. After the bell rings, a charred woman will be seen wandering in the hallway. ”
"Later, you should be able to find out too. The upper echelons of the hospital were arrested, and the reconstruction was stopped. This incident has also attracted a lot of Internet celebrities and anchors... But I didn't see any burnt women anymore. It was dismissed as a rumor. Actually, I haven't heard any rings in the past two days...."The cowboy's voice fell.
In the open door of the hospital, there was a screeching bell.
It was as if some indescribable presence wailed from the deep well of antiquity.
All three [players] are shaking their bodies.
A voice sounded in my head, incoherent and indescribable.
"Hey, that's a unique taste!"
