Volume 1 Initial Troubled Times Draft
The cry gradually became smaller, and the color of the sky gradually brightened, and the female ghost slowly stood up, bent down to pick up the bottle that was placed aside, and slowly walked into the distance.
Mo Chen looked at the female ghost in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and sat down on the ground, at this time, he suddenly found that the female ghost stopped and was looking at him seriously. Mo Chen wanted to escape, but found that his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move at all, to be precise, he couldn't even stand up.
The female ghost looked at Mo Chen quietly, as if she was remembering Mo Chen's face. After a few minutes, the female ghost smiled at Mo Chen and disappeared completely.
Seeing the smile of the female ghost before disappearing, Mo Chen did not feel any fear, but felt warm in his heart.
There was already a ray of sunlight in the sky, and it was dawn. Mo Chen slowly stood up and found that he was now on the outskirts of Haicheng. Taxi who got up early to work, Mo Chen returned to his residence in a daze, and fell asleep as soon as he arrived at the room.
When Mo Chen woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, he recalled what happened last night, but found that he still hadn't joined the Midnight Association, he went to his book to look for the comment, but found that the comment had been deleted.
After taking a ghost car on a big night, he didn't gain anything, and Mo Chen complained bitterly in his heart.
The sound of the phone interrupted Mo Chen's thoughts, "Hey, is it Mr. Mo Chen?"
"Well, yes, what's wrong?"
"Mr. Mo Chen, our boss is very satisfied with you, I was going to interview you in person today, but you didn't come, so the boss asked me to tell you that our company will not hire you in the future, and the boss's friends will not hire you. ”
After the man on the phone finished speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Mo Chen to reply. Mo Chen felt a burst of regret in his heart, he would not have gone if he had known, it would be a problem for me to stay in Haicheng without this job!
Mo Chen's wails spread throughout the floor, but fortunately, during the day, no one paid attention. Mo Chen eased his injured mood and turned on his phone to rummage. Suddenly, a pop-up window for a friend application appeared on Mo Chen's mobile phone.
The note for the friend request is: Midnight.
Mo Chen immediately agreed to the friend application, and before he could ask, the other party sent him a group invitation, and then deleted Mo Chen's friend.
Mo Chen entered the group and found that there were about five hundred people in this group, and after joining the group, a group announcement appeared on the chat interface, and Mo Chen clicked in.
Welcome to the 13rd Division of the Midnight Society, where you can fulfill your dreams. In order to accomplish your dreams, you need the right tools. Here's a price chart of the tools you'll need.
Rows of lists, with different things on them, followed by its points, where the first column of the first row says, ten dollars, ten points.
Seeing this, Mo Chen's heart began to beat wildly, he couldn't wait to search for how many points he had, and after some twists and turns, he saw his number of points: 100.
Mo Chen jumped up happily, if this was true, he would be a rich man!
A friend's pop-up interrupted Mo Chen's thoughts, and the column of the method of adding read: Add through the "Midnight Association Thirteenth Branch".
Mo Chen thought about it for a while, and then agreed to the friend application, after all, he didn't know a lot of things, and it was good to know a friend to understand.
The other party's ID was a rich man, and the moment Mo Chen passed, the rich man's message was sent.
Tycoon: Newcomer?
Mo Chen: That's right.
Regal: How well did you complete your initial mission?
Mo Chen: I don't know.
Regal: How many points do you have now?
Mo Chen: 100.
Tycoon: 100, are you normal? Were you brought here by someone else?
Mo Chen: No, I came by myself. Is 100 points high?
Regal: It's a hassle to explain, you just need to know that the first mission has more than 100 points, and it has only appeared five times in this group.
Mo Chen: Who else?
Rich: There are two of them who have quit the group, there is a girl named Chaguang, and another handsome boy.
Mo Chen went back and rummaged through the group of friends and found the ID of Chaguang, but after looking back and forth a few times, he never found the ID of "handsome and compelling", and he returned to the chat interface with the rich man again.
Mo Chen: Who is handsome?
Rich: I'm so handsome, how did you get 100 points, (laughs).
When Mo Chen saw the rich man's reply, the corners of his mouth twitched. No matter how the rich man sent messages and shook the window, Mo Chen no longer paid attention to it.
At this time, another friend application pops up, with the remark: chasing light.
Chasing the light: You are also a newcomer with 100 points?
Mo Chen: Yes, how do you know.
Chasing the Light: The rich man told me.
Mo Chen didn't want to talk anymore when he saw the word rich, but when he was about to close the chat window, he sent another message from Zhuguang.
Chasing the light: Don't listen to the rich, try not to exchange points for money.
Mo Chen: Why?
Chasing the Light: If you want to survive in this association, you must need their props. Money can't deal with ghosts.
Mo Chen continued to ask a few questions, chatting until late at night, before saying goodnight to each other with Zhuguang, at this time, Mo Chen saw the chat interface of the rich man, which was displayed below: 99+.
Mo Chen shook his head, and learned from Zhuguang's mouth that this rich man was the easiest person in the entire group, and once you said a word to him, he would immediately enter the chatter mode, and even if you ignored him, he would talk to himself next to you for hours.
The rich man is also a very special existence in the group, he often takes on tasks, and in the same way, he gets a lot of points, but he basically uses it all to exchange money, he uses the 500,000 US dollars in exchange for a travel agency, and now there are his branches in many places across the country.
As for the reason for opening a travel agency, according to his own explanation: it is because the tasks are not limited to his own city, and if he opens a travel agency, he can do more tasks and get more money.
As for the mission, every novice came to this association by bus, and one of their tasks was to redeem the undead in the car, which is different from what Li Zihan said. Mo Chen remembered that Li Zihan said before he fell asleep that the task was to kill the ghosts, and in the introduction of chasing the light, most of the tasks were for the participants to eliminate the resentment of the undead.
But there are also some special quests, one is the uncertainty quest, which does not necessarily lead to 100% ghost encounters when participants participate, but rewards are given at the end of the quest.
The other is the chance encounter mission, which is when a ghost appears near the people in the association, and the person who is closer to the ghost performs the task, and this kind of task does not earn points. After Mo Chen heard that he would not get points, he immediately lost interest in the chance encounter mission, but chased the light and told him that the most dangerous and the best reward was the chance encounter mission, but few people could survive the chance encounter mission.
In the mission of the association, the chance task can be selected to decline, but the first two kinds of tasks cannot be refused, and those who refuse to participate in the first two tasks will be directly eliminated from the group, as for where they went, according to the meaning of chasing the light, most of these people are dead.
Missions are divided into two ways: solo and multiplayer, and solo missions can invite teammates, but points will be shared. The points of multiplayer missions are a total value, and after completing the mission, each person will determine how many points he will receive in the end based on his performance.
Mo Chen found his own task list from the group files, which were: Midnight Bar, My Office, Affectionate School, and Infant Corpse Mountain. My office and the midnight bar are single-player missions, and the other two are multiplayer missions. Mo Chen told Chasing Light about these tasks, and since everyone's solo tasks were different, Chasing Light didn't know about them.
But Chaguang told Mo Chen that she and Mo Chen had a common mission, the affectionate school. As for Infant Corpse Mountain, it is a three-person mission, and the other two happen to be rich and light-chasing.
Zhuguang told Mo Chen that only one boy and one girl participated in the affectionate school at a time, but since she entered this group, the task of the affectionate school has always existed, that is, no one has ever completed this task.
And the Infant Corpse Mountain is a taboo for veterans, and basically everyone will keep delaying the task of the Infant Corpse Mountain. Many people who refused the task also refused the task of the Infant Corpse Mountain, and as a result, they completely disappeared into the group.
Leaving the group means death, and there may be a glimmer of life when participating in the mission, but these people chose to die, thinking of this, Mo Chen's brows furrowed.
Mo Chen didn't ask why Chasing Light entered this group, and Chasing Light was the same. Mo Chen asked about the two abilities that Li Zihan said, and the answer of Chasing Light was that at this level, it was impossible for them to touch those abilities. The Midnight Society, which is divided into five floors, can only move on to the next floor if the requirements are met.
If Chasing Light and the Rich complete the quest of the Affectionate School, Infant Corpse Mountain, they can move on to the next level.
When the chat was about to end, Zhuguang sincerely invited Mo Chen, she hoped that Mo Chen could team up with Zhuguang and Fuhao, and the two of them would help Mo Chen do tasks and accumulate enough points, and then the three of them rushed through the Infant Corpse Mountain together and entered the next layer.
Mo Chen didn't answer, although he felt that chasing the light was a sincere invitation from the tone, but in the face of unknown things, Mo Chen still chose to wait and see.
Suddenly knowing so many things today, Mo Chen's head hurt a little, lying on the bed, and after a while, Mo Chen fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, it was already nine o'clock. Although he received the advice of chasing the light, because he was too short of money, Mo Chen still exchanged it for 10,000 US dollars. He opened the points panel and chose to exchange US dollars, and when he confirmed, there was immediately one more message on his phone: Your account balance is 70,037 yuan. And Mo Chen's points also became 90.
Just as Mo Chen was about to go to the bank to withdraw money, an anonymous text message appeared on Mo Chen's mobile phone, the content was very short: Midnight bar mission, you can participate. Term, one month.
Mo Chen didn't expect that he had just passed the rookie test and would come into contact with the first task so soon. After thinking about it for a moment, he opened the chat window with Cha Light.
Mo Chen: My first mission has been released, and I want you to team up with me.
Chasing the Light: No problem, can you bring the rich?
After thinking for a while, Mo Chen typed out on the screen.
When it was six o'clock in the evening, Mo Chen received a phone call, "I'm chasing the light, the rich man and I am now in Haicheng's midnight travel agency, at eight o'clock in the evening, see you or leave." ”
Mo Chen put down the phone in his hand, and his whole person was a little confused. I just said in the morning, they came in the afternoon? I wasn't ready for it myself!
Although Mo Chen didn't want to start the mission so early, but when they arrived, Mo Chen naturally had no way to refuse, and after dinner, Mo Chen took a car and came to the midnight travel agency.
As soon as he got out of the car, a boy of the same age as himself leaned over, and after seeing the boy's appearance clearly, Mo Chen felt that this boy was very handsome.
"Your ID is Mo, I'm a rich man. ”
"Well, it's me, my real name is Mo Chen, you can call me Mo Chen in the future. ”
A hot girl walked out of the travel agency, and she smiled at Mo Chen, "I'm Chaguang, my real name is Chen Bing." ”
"My real name is Li Xiaofei. ”
The three of them walked into the midnight travel agency together, and Chen Bing took out a few bottles of Coke, "Drink some Coke, maybe you won't be able to drink it in the future." Then he smiled playfully.
"Xiaoice Bing, don't do this, it will frighten Mo Chen. ”
"Don't call me Xiaoice!" Chen Bing smashed a punch into Li Xiaofei's head, "We often cooperate on missions, so we are more familiar." ”
"And when are we going to start the mission?"
"You write below the message of the mission notification that you accept the task, and you don't have to send it. After five minutes, you will receive a notification about the task, and the mission will begin. ”
Mo Chen took out his mobile phone and operated according to Chen Bing's instructions, and five minutes later, Mo Chen's mobile phone received another anonymous message: I just want to look good, why is it regarded as that kind of woman. Please arrive at the River and Sea Bar tonight and dispel your obsessions.
The three of them immediately got up and took a taxi to the river and sea bar.
"Little dolls, where are you going?" was a fat uncle pulling the cart.
"River and sea bar. ”
"River and Sea Bar, little dolls, if you want to go to the bar, why do you have to go to the River and Sea Bar. ”
"Friend invited. ”
"Don't go to that bar, that road is so ruthless. ”
Uncle's words immediately aroused the interest of the three people in the car, "Master, we are also going for the first time, what's wrong with that road?"
"There are always people who get into accidents on that road, some drivers are drunk driving, and some pedestrians are drunk and don't avoid driving. I heard them say that there was a female ghost on the road, and when they met a man, they invited him to drink, and as long as he drank a sip of the female ghost's wine, he would have a car accident. ”
Listening to the fat uncle's words, Mo Chen and the three fell into thought, and the fat uncle thought that the three of them didn't believe what he said, so he turned his head and stopped talking.
When they arrived at a street in front of Hehai Street, the driver asked Mo Chen and the others to get out of the car.
"Master, isn't this still at the Hehai Bar? Why did it stop?" Mo Chen and Chen Bing were already planning to get out of the car, but Li Xiaofei's words began.
"I drank some wine before I went out, and I didn't feel sure about going on that road. ”
"Master, as a driver, you don't know, don't you drink while driving, don't you drive when you drink......
After about half an hour of preaching, the driver kept admitting his mistake to Li Xiaofei and promising that he would never drink and drive again in the future, and after he had not collected the fare of the three of them, Li Xiaofei got out of the car satisfied, and the three of them walked towards the Hehai Bar.
The first impression of the river and sea bar from the outside is that it is an old building. The area around the Hehai Bar is very empty, and there should be a lot of parking spaces, but since the state ordered a ban on drunk driving, the number of cars near the Hehai Bar has been reduced as soon as possible, and now there are almost none.
The River and Sea Bar is like an island on the sea, standing alone on this street. Mo Chen and the others slowly pushed open the door of the bar, and a strong smell of alcohol came to their faces. All sorts of people drank, sang, danced, and vented their emotions in it. The three of them chose a more corner spot, ordered three glasses of wine, and sat there to observe.
Everything was very ordinary, just like the bar Mo Chen usually went into, and he didn't feel the existence of ghosts at all.
Chen Bing saw the puzzled expression on Mo Chen's face and patted Mo Chen's shoulder, "Don't worry, we're here." Chen Bing gave Mo Chen an encouraging look.
Outside, the wind picked up, and the wind kept knocking on the bar window as if it would shatter at any moment. At this time, a woman came in, with an extraordinary temperament, and instantly became the focus of the audience. The woman on the upper body wore a short sleeve, while the lower body wore a miniskirt, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.
The woman didn't notice it, she went to the bar to order a drink, and looked at the middle-aged man who was dancing with a young girl on the dance floor. Mo Chen saw tears running through the corners of the woman's eyes.
At this time, a drunken man walked up to the woman, he took the wine in his hand, "Beauty, you are drinking alone, do you want to drink with me?"
Hearing the drunken man's words, the woman glanced at it, with a look of disdain on her face, turned her head and ordered another glass of wine from the counter. The eyes returned to the man dancing on the dance floor.
The dancing man seemed to see the woman, and he stopped, and walked to the woman's side with the young girl in his arms.
"Husband, who is this?" the young girl's tone was extremely sneering, and her face was full of dissatisfaction with the woman.
"Li Xin, don't take an inch. The woman's tone was extremely calm.
"Meng Ting, now that Chen Gang is my husband, you are already divorced. Li Xin glanced at Meng Ting's dress, "I heard Chen Gang say that you never want to wear a miniskirt, and now that you are separated from Chen Gang, you are wearing such a coquettish dress to seduce men." ”
Chen Gang glanced at Meng Ting's dress, and his eyes showed dissatisfaction, "Meng Ting, it turns out that you are pretending to be in front of me, I thought you were really so conservative!"
Li Xin took Chen Gang's arm and left the counter, Meng Ting looked at the backs of the two, her arms kept trembling, but Meng Ting and the two didn't realize it. The two returned to the dance floor and continued to dance, while Meng Ting, who was sitting at the counter, was silently watching, the wine in her hand disappeared one after another.
