[Main Quest: Go to the Abandoned Sanatorium.]
Go to the second floor, where there are a total of twelve rooms, each of which has a computer.
On the desktop of the computer, there is an icon called 'No Look Back', which you can click on to play this game called 'No Look Back'. This game is a role-playing horror game, and each player plays a character that is specified in advance, as is the room in which they are located. γ
Lu Li rubbed his eyes, the introduction of the main line of the game this time was really long, and he was a little confused.
Read on: [Let's explain a few important rules for this game.]
First, the player continues to use the computer to enter the game, make a designated character selection, once the game starts, can not leave the room they are in any way, and whether before or after the game starts, it is forbidden to use any violent means to influence other players to play the game, and the violating tenant will be directly eliminated by the system.
Second, there are seven rounds in the game, and if you don't finish the game by the end of the allotted time, all players will be eliminated.
Thirdly, in this horror game, in the process of playing, the damage suffered by the character controlled by the player, and even out, will be inflicted on the player's player.
Fourth, in the process of the game, the character played is often given options to choose the behavior of the character's behavior, there are four options, in addition, the other actions of the character are not controlled by the player, and among the four options, sometimes it is half of the life and death options, and sometimes it is a dead end or life path after several consecutive choices.
Fifth, once all the game characters are eliminated, all players will also be eliminated, and the game will be terminated early.
Sixth, at the end of each game, a window will pop up whether to save the current process, if so, then the game characters eliminated in the game will also be eliminated in the dungeon.
Conversely, if you don't save it, the death of the character will be considered invalid, and nothing will happen in the player quest.
But this kind of thing is only once, choose not to save the process, restart the game, after the second play, the game will be automatically saved by default, and can no longer be changed.
If there is a tie, a second vote will be held, and if there are three consecutive draws, it will be randomly decided whether to save or not. Next ......]
"It's so complicated!" a female voice sounded impatiently.
The following content is different for everyone.
Lu Li twisted his neck and began to look around,
It's a sanatorium, it's very dilapidated, it's full of dust and cobwebs, and it looks like it's not visited all year round.
The group was on the second floor of the sanatorium, and in front of them there was a row of rooms with doors and computers.
Obviously, they were going to go into their rooms and play games.
"This time, the number of people is really unprecedented...... someone sighed.
Lu Li looked at her, and she was still the same girl who had complained before.
At this moment, a tall white man with black glasses stood up in the queue, and a deep voice slowly sounded.
"If you can play Nightmare Mode during this time period, you must be an elite player, so let's talk about your opinion first. β
After saying that, no one answered, and most of them were thinking about the main content about their part, which was related to whether they could successfully clear the dungeon.
Soon they found out a problem, this time the copy, it seems that it can win alone?
Louis XVI found that no one had answered, so he took the lead in making a statement and began to explain his opinion on the copy.
"For the time being, we call the gameplay of character elimination in the computer game a dead end, and the gameplay of clearing the game a way of life. Louis XVI's deep voice struck at everyone's heart,
Judging from the performance so far, this is indeed a very professional player.
"If there is one dead end and three life paths, then choose the wrong one, as long as you don't save the process and play this game again, then you can easily choose the way to live.
"On the other hand, if there is one way of life and three ways of death, then if you choose the wrong one time, there is still a two-thirds chance of choosing a dead end. In this way, the main quest will be almost impossible to complete, so there are two ways to live and two ways to die. In other words, once you choose the wrong one time, then the probability of choosing a way out of life for the second choice is two-thirds!"
The players in the sanatorium couldn't help but listen carefully to Louis XVI's words and think about it...... He was absolutely right!
"But, remember the end of the main quest, don't interfere with other players playing the game, and don't give advice to other players' choices. β
Everyone nodded their heads, and this was also an important rule to increase the difficulty of the game.
Louis XVI smiled with satisfaction when he noticed that everyone was starting to think about the dungeon, and continued: "In other words, there must be no connection between players. This means that we have to make our own choices, and when someone dies in the first game, everyone has to choose whether to save or not when the window appears. By majority decision...... That is, players can decide whether other players are eliminated or not!"
Everyone listened to her words with bated breath, and everyone knew that the latter words were the point.
"There is a situation that is difficult to avoid. It is the game that appears, some players are eliminated, and the other part survives. For the surviving players, if the process of the game is not saved to play the second game, the probability of choosing a dead end is one-third, but even if it is one-third, not many people are willing to gamble, so the surviving residents of their characters naturally have to fight to save the process. And the game must end within a certain amount of time, which means we can't choose whether to save the process or not. At this time, will the surviving players sacrifice other players for their own survival? Once the progress is saved, the players who are eliminated by the game character will also be eliminated in the dungeon. If this continues, it will become a sincere and benevolent choice. β
"Actually, two-thirds is not strictly a statement, because there are multiple choices, so, the second time, it is difficult to say that you will not survive the first game and be eliminated in the second game. You can only play twice, which means that the second game is the decision game, and the elimination is really eliminated. Once the surviving player becomes the majority, it means ......"
