Chapter 2: Strange Games

"Now you can go offline, choose to go offline safely, and spend 100 Wen to go offline." Manager Lin looked at Xia Hou with pity.

"Isn't the game going to be tested?" Xiahou asked reluctantly.

"You've been fired, get offline." Manager Lin urged without annoyance.

"And what about my pay?" Xiahou asked weakly.

"The salary is 3,000 for you, and the secrecy fee is 20,000 for you, if you dare to leak the secret, seeing the king of Hades is the best ending for you, and you will be worse than dead if you fall into my hands." After finishing speaking, Manager Lin stepped lightly on the ground, and the ground paved with stone slabs was torn apart.

Xia Hou pursed his lips, and secretly slandered in his heart: Big brother, this is in the game, even if there is the power to destroy the world, I am not afraid, who can you threaten with a shallow footprint on the stone slab?

"Alright, get offline."

"Wait, my mother said that the temple burns incense, I have to bow down, God looks at it, be polite."

"Uh." Manager Lin scolded secretly in his heart: Be polite to the mud bodhisattva? Are you polite to me, you deserve to lose your job, you have no future. In the end, he didn't bother to say, "Then you hurry up." ”

Xiahou straightened his clothes, picked up incense from the offering table, lit it, and bowed respectfully, and just after worshipping, a large turntable appeared in front of him, on which were written four big words: God's gift. Underneath is another line of small print: compensation for the weakest ants.

At a cursory glance, the turntable is divided into many grids, which are radioactively distributed outward, and the grids are divided into three categories, which are respectively written to increase strength, increase physique, and increase agility.

If you look closely, you can see that there are small squares embedded in some of the squares, which are so small that only a few words can be written on the outside of the grids to add hidden attributes.

The three basic attributes account for more than nine layers of the total area, and there is little hope of moving to the hidden attributes.

Xia Hou did not hesitate, and started the wheel of fate, God favored, the pointer fell on the hidden attribute, and after a hidden attribute of 23 points jumped out of it, it disappeared with the turntable.

Open the character attributes, only the three basic attributes 322 have not changed, and no new attributes have appeared!

Xiahou was stunned: Where did the hidden attribute go?

"Goodbye, go offline, find the exit interface, focus on the safe offline, pay 100 Wen, click OK, and execute quickly." Manager Lin urged.

Xia Hou did as he instructed, and then his body disappeared, and within a few seconds, Manager Lin also disappeared offline.

When Xia Hou woke up again, he opened his eyes and saw that this time he was back in the nutrition cabin, but his eyelids were very heavy, and he closed involuntarily after only struggling for a while, and his whole body was also very tired, and his body was like falling asleep, without any strength.

However, his spirit was very clear, he could feel that he was being lifted up, being carried away like a chicken, he used his best strength to secretly open a gap, and saw that it was the researcher Lin who was carrying him, and his strength was so great.

After turning the elevator once, Xia Hou heard a sound of footsteps from the original to the near, and walked into the elevator room with them.

"Third uncle, is he awake?" This was Manager Lin's voice, and Xia Hou could hear it.

"I woke up just now, and now I should have slept again, but now it's far enough away that I shouldn't be able to connect, even if I fall asleep, it's no problem." As he spoke, he pulled out Xia Hou's eyelids and looked at them casually.

"This kid is hidden deeply, in reality and in the game, he is completely two kinds of people, and he is a little disobedient in it, and it took a lot of effort to deceive him. It would be nice if children could connect, there is a lot of money and it is easy to cheat, but unfortunately minors are not allowed to enter. ”

"By the way, Xiaodan, how is this harvest?"

"Don't mention it, this is another short-lived ghost, only 23 taels were looted. Third uncle, this time I want you to sign with your cousin, now the company's management is becoming more and more strict, they are all a family, why do you want to make it so complicated? Manager Lin, also known as Lin Dan, complained.

"I don't know what the old man thinks, it's obvious that one person can do the work, but the three of them have to ink together, do you bring the report? I'll sign it first, and I'll go to my son for an autograph later. Researcher Lin was also full of complaints.

"Well, third uncle, don't you have to wait for him to wake up and verify the situation before signing?" Lin Dan pretended to remind.

"No, it's all a family, who else do you believe if the third uncle doesn't believe it? I don't have any trust at all, is it still a blood relative? I think that old guy is old and confused, relatives can't believe it, who is still trustworthy? ”

"I heard that I sold 10 million taels last time, and I sold 200 million at one time."

"Well, the Li Group has a lot of money, that old man is afraid of death, and he can live for 20 more years, which is a drizzle."

"Prices are rising so fast."

"Who let us destroy several waves of people, and the resurrection requires gold."

"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll leave beforehand, and I'll give it to you next." Lin researcher Lin Third Uncle handed over the list to Lin Dan after signing his name, and left by himself.

"Third uncle, let's go." Lin Dan took Xiahou and said respectfully.

After a few elevator turns, he returned to Xiahou's room and threw him on the bed, Lin Dan said to himself: "I originally wanted to give you tens of thousands of yuan more, so that you can hide the amount for me, but now it is saved." Hey, you kid is not destined to make a windfall. ”

After Lin Dan left, Xia Hou carefully recalled the process just now, he was a little glad that this was a company that was tight on the outside and loose on the inside, so he learned so much information. No matter how detailed and complex the operating procedures are, they also need to be implemented by conscientious people, otherwise it is not as good as simple and rude.

There is something wrong with this game, and those in-game coins are important and may affect your own life. This is the conclusion that Xiahou can draw now.

He complained a little about his lack of intelligence, if he had realized the importance of game currency earlier, he could have told a little lie and not given them so much gold, and it was too late to regret it now.

No, I have to find a chance to lie down in that game pod, Xia Hou thought so, but since his body was still under the influence of drugs, he fell asleep again.

When Xiahou opened his eyes again, he returned to the temple, he was stunned for a while, looked around, found that there was no one, didn't think about it, first turned around, and then bowed to the statue, and then every time Xiahou went up and down the line, in and out of the temple, he would bow down, and after worshipping, Xiahou hid behind the statue.

The candlelight was blocked by the idol, and it was pitch black, and he could see outside, but he couldn't see him outside.

After hiding himself, he began to think about his life: he has now entered this game, which means that the game warehouse is an illusion, and he does not need it to enter the game. They were relieved to let themselves sleep in their rooms, indicating that in their cognition, it was impossible for them to enter. By the way, they mentioned distance before, but it's hard because of the distance, just like WiFi has a distance limit?

They placed the transmitter base station on a certain floor in the middle of the building, and the signal radiated outward from strong to weak, and only that floor or near that floor could receive a strong enough signal to enter the game. There are no other tall buildings around, and perhaps there is a reason for this.

The room where I sleep is theoretically beyond the shortest distance, and there is not enough signal strength, but now it can be online, is it because my receiver is particularly bull B, and it can be connected even when the signal is weak?

By the way, he added 23 hidden attributes before, and his three major attributes added up to only 7 points, maybe this hidden attribute allowed him to enter the game again.

Forget it, I don't want to, I have a headache if I think too much, if only I had an IQ recharge card, recharge myself.

Xiahou opened the package interface,Found that there was a lack of 106 money,100 Wen was deducted when he went offline last time,At this time, more than half an hour has passed since the first launch,It seems that the game currency and point cards in this game are combined,And whether it is online or not, the money will be deducted according to the time。

After a while, a faint figure suddenly appeared in front of the statue, the color went from light to dark, and finally Lin Dan's figure appeared.

Lin Dan glanced at the statue, took out a short black thorn and looked at it carefully in front of the candlelight, and gently stroked it with his left hand: "This game is so difficult to play experience, fortunately with you, I am a lot more relaxed, but the cooldown time of twelve hours is a little longer." ”

Then the second one raised a short thorn with his right hand: "A stab in the hand, become a god and become a demon." With that, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the temple, and soon disappeared into the hazy night.

Xiahou hesitated, came out from behind the statue, and bowed to the statue with his hand, suddenly a gust of wind blew, the candle flame swayed for a while, the candlelight flickered, the porcelain plate on the table cracked with a "snap", the pastries on it rolled to the ground, and a few pieces came to Xiahou.

"Is it for me? Thank you. Xia Hou picked up the pastries on the ground and put them in the package, bowed, and turned to go out.

Looking at Xiahou's back, the candlelight flickered on and off, as if to tell that this tribute is rancid, bring something fresh, silly boy, this is not for you.

When Xiahou walked outside the temple, there was no trace of Lin Dan. I looked back at the horizontal plaque on the temple door, and I could vaguely see the three big characters of the City God Temple on it.

Xiahou looked around and found that the City God Temple was built on a hill that was not too high, and the path in front of the door spread slightly downward, and there was a little weak light not far from the mountain, where a leisurely narration was emitted.

Tightening his fists, Xiahou walked down the hill along the side of the road, and soon he came to the end of the path, and a wooden archway appeared in front of it, with the words Pingzhong County written on it.

Walking through the wooden archway, there is a street, on both sides of the street are wooden bungalows, dark, very quiet, the street is like the devil's esophagus, leading to the depths of sin, the house is like sharp teeth, chewing the cruelty of the world.

Xiahou plucked up his courage and walked forward, and after a long turn, the lights of a green building were turned on, and the rest of the place was shrouded in gray darkness.

Xia Hou wanted to enter the Qinglou out of curiosity, but was blocked by the two deformed men at the door, looking at his shabby clothes and saying that he could only enter if he was given a deposit first.

Xiahou was reluctant to pay for it, so he gave up his plan to go in and wandered around the county town of Pingzhong.

This game is very realistic, and the various characters in the green building are no different from real people, although they only look at it from the outside, but they can't find a trace of artificial intelligence.

Just when he felt that he was about to get lost, he faintly heard the sound of "dry weather, watch out for the fire candles" and the sound of banging on the bang.

Xiahou ran a few steps faster towards the source of the voice, and met an old hunchbacked man.

"Hello, uncle, do you need help?" Although Xiahou's emotional intelligence in reality is not high, the game is still open, and he will talk to NPCs when he encounters them, and he will enthusiastically take the initiative to provide all kinds of help whether he needs it or not.

"It's dry, watch out for the candles." The old man ignored Xiahou and continued to walk forward on his own, while playing slowly and quickly.

"Uncle, wait, I'll accompany you to chatter, how boring it is to walk alone in this dark night." Xiahou didn't give up, and finally ran into an NPC who didn't stalk him, how could he say the past, "Uncle, say a few words, I'll be scared if I walk alone in this dark night." ”

"Come, uncle eat something to cushion his stomach, the night is still long, the road is long, the time is not early, and the stomach can't stand the things that you don't eat." As he spoke, he handed the pastries from the City God Temple to the old man.

The old man stopped, looked at the pastry in Xia Hou's hand, touched his stomach and hesitated, and finally took it and put it in his mouth: "The old man has nothing to repay you, and if you eat it, you will eat it for nothing." ”

"How can the boy ask for your things, this is filial piety to you, uncle, is there any kid who can help, just ask."

"Oops, no." After eating the pastry, the old man squatted down holding his stomach.

"Little brother, do me a favor."

A task interface suddenly popped up in front of Xia Hou:

Husband's request

Assignment content: The husband asks you to help with the change.

Quest Reward: Employer Reward Unknown. The system rewards 1 general experience.

Do you accept the assignment?

Xia Hou accepted the task without hesitation, and then he received a message prompt: Reward for the employer in advance: the road map of the city patrol of the husband.

There is a map.

Xiahou clicked on the interface, and there was an additional map option in the interface.

The husband handed over the bangzi to Xiahou and found a thatched house to solve the physiological problem.

Xia Hou began to shout along the route marked on the map, "The weather is dry, be careful of the fire candle", and after shouting, he knocked on the bang slowly and quickly, and walked two steps.

has been in the county three times, after completing the watch, Xiahou found the old man, saw him again, and he was about to collapse.

Xiahou handed in the task and got a little general experience, and the employer reward was obtained before, but now it is gone. Then the old husband made a request again, and the next two changes were also handed over to Xiahou, this time it was still the employer reward unknown, and the system rewarded 2 points of general experience.

An hour later, Xiahou finished three trips of bangzi slowly and quickly, and completed the second shift.

Two hours later, Xiahou completed three trips to Bangzi slowly and quickly and completed the task.

He walked to the old man's dilapidated house, felt a little hungry, and ate the pastry in the package.

Suddenly, there was a cramp in his abdomen, and a message popped up in the information box: stealing tribute, blasphemy, weakness for three hours, and confinement in the latrine for one hour.

"I'll rub!" Xia Hou ran towards the thatched house with his stomach in his arms, and he now knew the reason why the old man had diarrhea.

Stay in the thatched house,Smelling a foul smell,Xiahou clicked on the exit interface,The safety offline is gray at this time,Can't press,The forced offline is still on,He clicked on it,A prompt popped up:After choosing to force offline,The game character stays in place and does not disappear,If you encounter an external attack, you will also receive damage until you are too seriously injured and die,If you don't go online for a long time, you will also die of hunger and thirst。 Choose carefully,

Seeing this, Xiahou didn't dare to force him offline, and endured the stench and darkness in the thatched house.
