Chapter VI: The Investigator's Tavern
Chu Ge knew that if nothing else, this fate dice would be his golden finger.
However, other people's golden fingers all make the owner become a dragon arrogant, why is his own golden finger so cheating!
He can't roll the dice if he doesn't want to do it in the dungeon, because in the next dungeon, the system will automatically punish the dice, which means that Chu Ge must roll the dice once before the end of each dungeon.
However, in addition to the bad luck judgment, the fate dice also have a lucky decision. If he is lucky, he triggers the Lucky Decision, and the task becomes easier.
However, he didn't know how the so-called lucky and bad luck decisions were calculated, and he only knew that if he threw a "5", something bad would happen.
It's just a matter of looking at faces, but he never had much hope for his luck!
He sighed and put the dice in the equipment slot, when he saw the investigator badge and the manual on the table, and when he put the manual in the package, he found that the badge had changed.
The badge was originally made of wood, but now it is made of black metal, which seems to be made of black iron.
[Investigator Badge: A symbol of the status and rank of the investigator, current title: Trainee Investigator]
Emmmm...... It seems that after passing the rookie training, he has gotten rid of the rookie title.
He put the investigator badge in his package as well, and inadvertently, looked at his health and sanity.
Originally, he only had 55% of his health left, but when he returned to the cloakroom after leaving the dungeon, his health had automatically recovered, and his torn clothes were brand new, and even the wound on his waist was gone.
But his sanity is still 85%, and he doesn't know how to recover.
Just as he was wondering, a light suddenly appeared on the wall of the cloakroom, and the light finally turned into the shape of a door.
[Investigator's Tavern unlocked]
He heard the sound of the system message and immediately walked towards the door.
Passing through this door, his eyes suddenly lit up. What catches your eye is a lively tavern full of players and NPCs.
The waitress in a maid suit, a handsome male waiter, the wine cabinet is full of all kinds of wine, and there is an uncle in a suit in front of the bar who is bartending.
【Welcome to the Investigator's Tavern】
[The Investigator's Tavern is a place for players to rest and chat, where players can trade with NPCs or other players, and can also drink to restore your sanity]
As soon as Chu Ge stepped into the tavern, a figure came to him.
"Friend, the strategy is going to be attacked?"
That's a player of the detective profession, and the game is nicknamed North Hell.
He was wearing a black fur coat, and when he saw Chu Ge, he pulled open his coat like a pervert, and it was full of disc-like things.
"What strategy?" Chu Ge was taken aback by this pervert.
"You must be a newcomer. "In the nightmare game, players can create customs clearance strategies, trade and sell them. ”
"Didn't I buy the guide, just show it to others?" Chu Ge asked.
"This is the rule of the nightmare game, all players who buy the guide, after reading it, the guide will be automatically destroyed, and it is difficult to spread it twice. ”
Chu Ge's eyebrows raised, he didn't expect that there would be such rules in the nightmare game, it seems that the game official is also encouraging players to make game strategies?
Beiming Youyu squeezed his eyebrows and said: "I have all the strategies here, I see that you just came out of the novice book, haven't you passed, I have read my strategy, I have covered it!"
"What strategies do newbies have to see. Chu Ge pursed his lips, ignored the other party, and walked towards the bar of the tavern.
But there is a fish in the north that doesn't want to give up, and has been following him.
The suit uncle's bartending action was elegant, and he glanced at Chu Ge, "Mr. Investigator, your sanity is very unstable now, do you need me to bring you a glass of wine?"
He nodded, and the bartender poured him a glass of wine, which was a whiskey with ice.
In Nightmare games, drinking alcohol restores the player's sanity. So this game is forbidden for minors.
(Chu Ge warm reminder, children, please don't drink)
[Chilled Whisky: Although the ice cubes reduce the stimulation of alcohol, they lack the original aroma of whisky, and can restore your sanity in a small amount]
【15% Restore Sanity after Drinking】
"Does this glass of wine cost money?" Chu Ge asked.
"I'll give you the first drink for free, but the next time you'll have to pay for it. The uncle in the suit said with a smile.
Chu Ge picked up the wine glass and took a sip, since it was in the game, no matter how much wine he drank, he would not get drunk. His sanity is also gradually recovering, and it is now back to 90%. It seems that drinking it will be the only way to regain all sanity.
Youyu sat next to him at this time, and said without giving up: "Brother, look at your appearance, you should have already passed the novice tutorial." It's okay, in addition to the beginner's book strategy here, there is also a career plus point strategy...... I have what you want. ”
"Do you have a selection of cold jokes here?" Chu Ge asked coldly.
There are fish in the North Underworld: "......"
At this moment, the chatting of several players in the sofa area not far away attracted Chu Ge's attention.
"Did you guys go well with your newbies?"
"The official is really full of malice, and there is a ghoul in the novice book. ”
"Alas...... It's so hard for me......"
"yes, it's hard to get the key. At this time, Chu Ge came over with wine and said.
"What key?" said one of the players' expressions in surprise.
"It's the key on the ghoul's body, I finally knocked it down before I snatched the key away!" Chu Ge had a depressed expression.
His words made many players stunned for a moment, and asked in an incredulous tone, "You defeated the ghoul to clear the beginner's book?"
"How is it possible, the ghouls of this mission can't be defeated at all!"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Chu Ge felt that his whole person was not good.
It turned out that he was the only one who was so unlucky among the players, and the escape mission trained by the novice made him play a combat mission.
The average player only needs to avoid the monsters and escape from the graveyard. And he not only has to fight the ghouls, but also find a way to seize the key from the monster.
The Graveyard contains a low-durability starter weapon, which can be retrieved from the quest by escaping and leaving the Graveyard.
This newbie weapon has low durability, but can be used as long as it is repaired in the cloakroom.
However...... Chu Ge didn't have a chance to take it out at all, because he blew up the shovel in the dungeon.
The game is literally aimed at him.
Forget it, forget it.
"The newbie dungeon is already so difficult, I don't know how difficult the first official dungeon will be. One player sighed.
"Yes, other service areas already have the first book of the great god clearance, and I heard that it took four or five failures to pass. Another player said.
"Help...... I've heard that the newbie dungeon can't get past it, so you can't move on to the next dungeon. ”
At this moment, the fish from the North Underworld came over, he pulled his coat and said, "Did I hear someone shouting for help?
Hearing what this man said, the players immediately surrounded him.
Chu Ge had already finished drinking the wine at this time, and his sanity value had returned to 100%.
Hearing the players' discussions, he also became very interested in the next dungeon.
Bite!
A team application popped up.
【Handsome and chic, invite to team up with you】
Chu Ge was a little curious, but he still clicked for sure. It didn't take long for the man to send him a message.
(private chat) handsome and chic: Chu Ge, where are you?
Embattled: Do we know each other?
(Private chat) handsome and chic: Don't you know you if you change the vest? I'm Wang Yingjun!
Chu Ge's expression became calm.
Oh, it turned out to be him.
Wang Yingjun, he is Chu Ge's youngest hair, it is said that they wore the same pants when they were children, which shows how good their relationship is.
The game "Nightmare Game" was recommended by him to Chu Ge, because he was relatively fat since he was a child, Chu Ge used to call him Chubby.
Embattled: Chubby, why did you come up with such a weird name?
Handsome and chic: Don't you think this name is very worthy of me?
Embattled: Bah!
Handsome and chic: Don't say more, Chu Ge, your newbie book has already passed, let's start the next dungeon.
In Nightmare Games, you can only unlock the next one if you clear the previous one.
Unlike beginner training dungeons, Nightmare Games is a team-based adventure game that works together to complete missions based on the coordination and collaboration between different classes.
Even if you are very strong personally, there are some tasks that you cannot complete on your own.
In addition to this mode, there are also multiplayer co-op modes, two-player versus modes, and multiplayer versus modes in addition to this mode. We'll talk more about that when the time comes.
After Chu Ge and Wang Yingjun team up, enter the game dungeon selection screen.
So without further ado, now begins the official investigator journey.
[Embattled, Level 2]
[Handsome and dashing, level 1]
【Loading of two-player co-op mode......】
