His physical strength and heart rate gradually recovered, and the sun made his body slightly warm, Fang Liang took the lead in breaking the silence:

"It seems that the situation is worse than I expected, the planes and planes of this edifice are distorted by cursed cognition, and as long as they are not in the right place at the right time, they will never find a safe zone."

Lu Ming raised his hand to block the sunlight that was gradually becoming a little dazzling: "In other words, as long as you don't enter the correct timeline, it means that you will definitely be wiped out without negotiation, and there is absolutely no way out of the building in the dark night." ”

Li Xiaoyu pulled off the hat of the pizza shop, unbuttoned the two collar buttons, and leaned against the tree with her ankles to blow the wind: "Whew, the basic situation should be like this, haha, I didn't expect Lu Ming that you are not stupid." ”

"In this way, we are really lucky, 4 people triggered the red line law at the same time, and successfully entered the correct timeline through the curse of Duan Jianmin. If Fang Liang were to trigger it alone, we might be left in the night. ”

"Speaking of which, did we save Duan Jianmin and change the future world line, or did we just free him from one of the timelines, and the power of the curse has not been lifted?"

Saying that, Cao Zhengfei also ripped off his security hat and sat there with his hands on the ground basking in the sun: "And I remember, didn't Duan Jianmin draw a red line on the screen at the beginning?" Strictly speaking, he only has 4 red circles on his hands, neck and waist, and we forgot about the line on the counting screen, right? ”

Hearing this, the three of them were also stunned.

Oh, if you think about it, it should indeed be 5 red lines.

If Duan Jianmin himself is used as the trigger switch for the curse, the number of different red lines should correspond to different timelines.

Fang Liang rubbed his hair: "Under the premise of time and space confusion, it should be feasible to sort out a curse depth order. It's just that the memory reversal at the beginning is simply too misleading, and it is obvious that it was the cognition of time and space confusion from the beginning, if the number of lines is related to the depth of the curse, then the more you draw, the more you will definitely die. ”

[System]: If you detect the remaining potential value of the dungeon, do you choose to return to the building area to explore additional rewards?

Fang Liang was already impatient, and decisively refused: "This thing is winding and brain-burning, the clues given are vague and dangerous, I don't know how many layers of space-time confusion there are in total, I don't want to go in and die if you don't make it clear, and I doubt that there is something wrong with your definition of a novice dungeon - you actually call this a novice dungeon?" ”

Li Xiaoyu waved his hand again and again: "The dog system flashes aside, your stupid game is terrifying to death, I am almost out of the psychological shadow when I play, if the reward garbage does not have a suitable trading system, we will refund it directly." ”

Lu Ming was also speechless: "The total time of 1500 seconds is fake at all, and the first time a novice sees it is a group annihilation-level copy of time and space disorder, and the initial difficulty of this game is simply heavenly." How did you write the total time for this dungeon, and is it the cut-off record for the longest time for your testers to survive in a dungeon? ”

Cao Zhengfei said with a smile: "I'll bet on a spicy strip, this group of researchers made an experimental project into a game for the first time to raise development funds, and their brain circuits and normal game companies are definitely two worlds." ”

However, the system did not answer positively at all, and the guide did not squeak, and the scene was awkwardly quiet for a while.

Half-ringing, the system that had been playing dead finally popped out a word.

[System]: After the settlement is completed, please go offline to confirm the volunteer subsidy reward.

At the end of the voice, a panel of exit buttons that was obviously written in a hurry popped up in front of me, which was extremely simple.

Lu Ming was furious: "The game is messing with people under the guise of scientific research, and the labor and management will complain about the refund when they go offline, and the labor and management will be angry!" ”

Fang Liang was also speechless, the four of them chatted a few times, and were about to press the exit button, but a strange slogan suddenly sounded.

"Boom Drive~Boom Drive~"

Lu Ming and the others stopped their movements, searched with their eyes, and soon discovered the source of the slogan.

It was a tall man who had wrapped himself tightly, wearing a thick dark coat like linoleum, and his face was wrapped in a face toil, revealing only a pair of eyes. Although the whole person was shrunk in the sleeve, his bandaged hands were holding a strange black and white paper sedan chair, and he was shaking his thick black leather boots.

"What the hell, when did this thing appear? Isn't the quest already over? ”

Fang Liang's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly told them to stand up.

However, the tall man did not notice the small fright he had caused, he seemed to be carrying a single paper sedan chair, shaking forward extremely rhythmically, it seemed that each time he lifted his footsteps, his speed was a little strangely fast.

As if darkness was coming with him, looking up, it was unbelievable that the sun, which had been dazzling just now, had a solar eclipse at this time, and the whole world quickly fell into a twilight-like haze.

The strange tall man flicked one step at a time to the edge of the forest in front of the four of them.

Then, the tall man put down the sedan chair, silently tore open the front of the sedan chair, and turned to face the four people.

Cao Zhengfei glanced at the sedan chair and wrapped his arms around: "That black is a bit similar to Vantablack, which is the so-called Vantablack, a 99.96% light-absorbing substance that is neatly arranged with a large number of miniature carbon tubes. ”

"If this black material were a little more technically strong, it would have become the black of nothingness when we loaded into the game, creating a weird feeling that we couldn't accurately distinguish shapes, textures, and weights, and it wasn't actually paper."

The tall man didn't seem to mind Cao Zhengfei's analysis of him, he just raised his arm suddenly, then pulled away his thick robe, bowed his body slightly, and let out a heroic weird smile: "Hey, hey, Welcome!" ”

"Hey, hey, there's a lot of goodies for sale, strangers who just finished the challenge, take a look?"

Fang Liang and the others were a little shocked by him, this guy looked like he was more than 2 meters tall, coupled with thick leather boots and equipment underneath, he always felt that his pestle was like a big dark cloud here, not some serious NPC businessman.

Looking at the inside of the tall man's pocket, there are strange dolls, weapons, bottles and cans.

Fang Liang's fingers were raised in front of the tall man and grabbed in the air, but nothing happened, and he was a little embarrassed in an instant.

But Fang Liang didn't want to have physical contact with this strange guy: "It's so primitive, isn't there a menu panel?" ”

"Hey, hey, hey, don't worry, let's take a look if you don't buy it."

The tall man re-fastened his robe and tucked his hands into his pockets, revealing a rudimentary old panel.

Fang Liang glanced at it, only to see that there were only a few options on the panel:

【Get Curse (Allowed)】

【Study Skills (To be Learned)】

Get the curse? Fang Liang's heart moved, if he could get the kind of curse that changed everything like Duan Jianmin, it was almost equivalent to having the skills of the superpower series, but if the curse got out of control, everyone who knew what it would be would do, not to mention the damn bungee jumping over-the-shoulder fall, if there was no specific skill to protect himself, it would be suicide at all.

"But we don't have the money ......"

The tall man leaned over and stretched his neck forward more and more: "Hey, hey, it doesn't cost you anything to get the curse, do you want to give it a try?" ”

Fang Liang crooked his eyebrows and took a step back, this guy was obviously weird: "Why does it have to be a curse?" ”

The tall man straightened up, glanced at his pocket watch, and his voice was so low and hoarse that it seemed to be whispering: "Hey, hey, only a curse can fight a curse, and ordinary people forget their powerlessness in the face of a strange world so quickly?" ”

Fang Liang cut to the team's voice channel mode, and the four of them formed a circle: "What do you say, discuss and discuss?" ”

Li Xiaoyu: "Don't suffer if you want a curse first?" Anyway, taking the curse will not affect the game's refund. ”

Lu Ming: "It's not a loss, it's not a loss, but all curses are killing, isn't it sooner or later?" ”

Cao Zhengfei: "I'm casual, anyway, I have to find a way to make money during the summer vacation, otherwise I am not allowed to turn on the lights and add clear soup and noodles." ”

As soon as Cao Zhengfei's voice fell, the atmosphere was subtle and a little awkward.

Now Yuechenzhou is fully controlled, and it is not safe to go out to do odd jobs, although there are some online jobs that require professional knowledge, but in general, it is easy and profitable to play games.

Fang Liang: "That's it, I'll set this guy's words first, if there is no big problem, let's touch a curse first to see the situation." After all, it's also a new game, and it shouldn't be so bad if the beta benefit period hasn't passed. ”

Fang Liang turned around: "But I have no experience and don't know how to use the curse. ”

The tall man laughed strangely: "Hehehehe, understanding the curse is a necessary prerequisite for using the curse, and the same curse and different ideologies will collide with completely different powers." The curses I've dealt with are usually static, and if you feel like you can't accept it and can't control it, just don't open it for the time being, how about it, want to try it? ”

"So, here's one?"

Fang Liang stretched out his hand, and the tall man took out a small tea bag and put it in the palm of his hand.

Fang Liang was stunned for a moment, and then a data interface opened in front of him.

【Cursed: Dead Line Effect】

[Basic Special Effect: When the deadline is approached, the host will be temporarily given an increase in efficiency and speed.] 】

Looking horizontally and vertically, this thing is a pitifully small red tea bag, which is not the same thing as an imaginary curse.

"That's it?" Fang Liang's whole person was dizzy, wasn't this a passive skill with the power of blood skin, the residual blood acceleration.

Dare to discuss nervously for a while, the seller show and the buyer show are not the same thing at all?

"Then I'll have one too." Li Xiaoyu almost laughed, anyway, he had a lot of ingredients to refund when he went out, and asked for a curse, just to see what the hell this Hanhan game official was doing.

The tall man took out a small gray tea bag and put it in Li Xiaoyu's palm.

【Cursed Death Notice】

[Basic Effect: To be activated]

Li Xiaoyu spread her hands in disbelief: "What is this, guess the dumb riddle?" What the hell are you kidding me? ”

The tall man pointed at Fang Liangwei and smiled: "Hehehe, this means that he successfully withstood the outbreak of the curse not long ago, and he was not killed by the curse, so his curse is activated." As for your curse, it is in a state of slumber seal, and as long as you don't provoke it and don't actively open it to use it, it is almost non-existent. ”

So it's also this kind of curse for the civil people in the intersection? A trace of doubt flashed in Fang Liang's eyes, and in the dark he felt that everything seemed to be premeditated, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

Lu Ming walked up to the tall man: "Give me the whole one." ”

I saw the tall man reach out and touch it, and put a small clump of knotted hair on Lu Ming's palm.

【Cursed Lunar Eclipse】

[Basic Effect: To be activated]

“……？” Lu Ming turned his head to look: "Why are the two of you tea bags, but mine is a lump of miscellaneous hair?" ”

Cao Zhengfei stretched out his hand, and the tall man fumbled in his pocket and put down a small piece of colored clay.

Facing the suspicious eyes of the three people, Cao Zhengfei simply shared the information screen with them.

【Cursed Pandora】

[Basic Special Effects: To be activated.] 】

The tall man rubbed his hands and laughed: "Hey, hey, some curses don't require specific activation conditions, or they can be activated at the moment they are obtained, and some are relatively reversed." So are you still satisfied with the curse at hand? If you don't think it's enough, I've got a lot of it here, so please feel free to open up if you need it. ”

Fang Liang threw the tea bag into the inventory column, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong: what's the matter with this guy, as soon as he appeared, he frantically stuffed the player with a curse, and instigated the player to master the curse power, Duan Jianmin wouldn't just fall for this guy, he thought it was a chicken rib curse at the beginning, but he didn't pay attention and played more and more, and finally died from the curse eruption, right?

The official didn't explain anything in terms of the background of the dungeon, the beginning was a sinkhole-style scene recall, Fang Liang thought that the law of killing was related to the red line, but the timeline confusion was an anomaly that was discovered after it came out. The fact that this guy can appear in Duan Jianmin's subconscious cognitive copy world does explain something to some extent.

The most important thing is that the game "Xenoreal Real" is not like traditional role-playing games, players do not have a clear concept of the main city and the main world background for the time being, but it is just a very abrupt and direct dungeon.

"Can you teach us how to use the curse?"

The tall man pointed to his head, and suddenly let out a creepy strange laugh: "Hehehe, as long as you are living humans, the curse will find a way out, what's the matter, do you need more curses?" ”

Fang Liang gradually noticed one thing: if the curse can never be cleared, the curse in the player's hand will only increase, and the chance of the curse to kill the player will probably increase, this thing really doesn't need money in his hand, and it does have a bit of an ability bonus, but after a while, the curse will develop, and it will develop to the point that it is uncontrollable.

"That's not necessary for the time being, if a curse can't be played well, wouldn't it be a fancy way to find death by catching a lot of curses."

However, as soon as Fang Liang refused, this strange tall man decisively walked towards the "sedan chair".

There was no sign of recovery in the dim surroundings, and after the solar eclipse, the sun was long gone.

The tall strange man got back into the "sedan chair" like this, muttered the strange lines of "Da'er drive~Da'er drive~", and walked into the depths of the forest in a flash. The light in the gaps in the trees seemed to close with his footsteps, and it seemed that the speed of time in this area was indeed extremely abnormal.

"Hey, hey, it's getting dark again, go back to where you need to go......"
