Chapter 65: Patrol
This time, my teammates are very unfriendly....
Li Ang thought secretly, took out his phone and looked at the time, it was already 11:40, and there were only 20 minutes left until twelve o'clock in the morning.
He cleared his throat and was about to say something when he heard a system chime ringing in his ears.
[All players have arrived, and the next mission reminder is now announced]
[At 12:00 a.m., players will play the role of security guards in Longheng Mall, searching the entire mall to find six different paper talismans scattered all over the place]
[At the beginning of the game, each player will get a cinnabar brush, which is a story item, which cannot be loaded into the backpack slot and cannot be taken out after the mission is over]
[Players need to use a cinnabar brush to imitate the patterns on the talismans and copy them on the ground on each floor of the mall]
[During the game, there will be ghosts patrolling in the mall, and once the player makes a sound or light, it will immediately attract the attention of the ghosts and be hunted down]
[Players need to keep a certain distance from each other, and once they get close to each other, they need to separate immediately, otherwise they will attract the attention of ghosts and be hunted down]
[Players need to keep moving, not stay in place for a long time, otherwise they will attract the attention of ghosts and be hunted down]
[Ghosts can't find or destroy the talisman]
[If all six talismans are copied, the task is deemed to have been completed]
[After 3 o'clock in the morning, if the six talismans have not been completed, it will be regarded as a mission failure]
[Reward 1: 300 extra XP]
[Reward 2: 500 points of in-game currency]
【Reward 3: Random Quality Random Item*1】
[Reward 4: One Free Attribute Points]
[Failure Penalty: Erasure]
Leon gasped.
Before that, all the tasks he received were extremely simple and crude, [Kill the Possessed Ghost], [Kill the Zombie], [Find out the truth], etc., etc.,
Even if there is an element of decryption, it depends on the player's individual performance, and it is not a necessary item to complete the task.
And this time [hide and seek] is completely different,
The requirements required to complete the task are as cumbersome and detailed as the task prompts.
This is not only a kind reminder to the player, but also a malicious hint to the player - hinting at how difficult the mission is and how dangerous it is...
If you're not careful, you may be wiped out.
"Ladies and gentlemen,"
The figure on the motorcycle clapped his palms and attracted everyone's attention, "It's 11:42, and there are still 18 minutes left before the mission starts."
The difficulty of this mission is quite large, and the purpose of the system to give this time is probably to allow us to exchange information in advance, get acquainted with our teammates, and make a rough plan for clearing the level.
You can only get out alive if you work together, and I recommend starting with the release of player IDs. ”
After that, he took the initiative to disclose his ID.
【Rejuvenation of the Plague Doctor】【Lv6】
Rejuvenation? It's probably a medical emergency title. Li Ang thought
On the player forum, there are quite a lot of tutorial posts for this kind of pre-war mobilization, and the players present are not new rookies, and after the epidemic doctor took the initiative to express his kindness, he announced his ID and level one after another.
Burly man, [Armor Fusion Guardian Ao Yong] [Lv6]
Supermarket Staff Uniform [Lonely Skater: Lost Airship] [Lv5]
Liu Wuxian, [Bow Like a Thunderbolt, No Leisure] [Lv5]
Li Ang, [Manic Ripper: Li Sunsheng] [Lv6]
The five players looked at each other's player information, and their hearts sank.
The team tasks released by the killing game are all formulated according to the overall strength of all players, and everyone present is above Lv5, and the level is not much different.
This means that their respective strengths will not exceed the average by much, and they will not have much advantage.
The epidemic doctor exhaled a breath of turbidity and said loudly: "Time is limited, so I won't say much gossip." Follow the system prompts and we're going to play the role of a security guard. When I entered the mall, I noticed that the security guards in the mall were gone..."
Ao Yong raised his hand and said, "It's me, I arrived here first." In order to prevent my identity from being revealed, I packed all the security guards together in advance and knocked them unconscious and threw them into the flower beds outside the mall. They would never wake up before three o'clock. ”
"Is that so?" the plague doctor nodded, walked to the door, and reached out to pat the glass door.
found that the front glass seemed to be welded to the space, and no matter how much it was taken, it didn't move at all, and the pedestrians passing by outside were the same as not seeing these strangely dressed people inside the door.
As a veteran player, the epidemic doctor naturally understands that this is a manifestation of the system automatically setting enchantments and shielding external interference factors after the game starts.
"I was triggered this morning,"
Ao Yong remembered something and said: "After the task was triggered, I collected some information related to Longheng Plaza through various channels. Since you're all veterans, you've probably made all sorts of preparations. ”
The plague doctor nodded silently, and the Lost Airship grinned and did not speak.
This is a good thing to do with veteran players in co-op missions, and you don't have to go through too much trouble explaining how to clear the level.
"Good." Ao Yong nodded, "Longheng has had a total of five deaths in the past ten years. In the first case, an engineer fell to his death from a three-meter-high shelf during the initial construction of the mall.
In the second case, an elderly beggar tried to beg in the mall, and died of heart disease when he was kicked out of the mall by the security guards.
In the third case, a four-year-old girl, when her mother was lying on the massage chair playing with her mobile phone, the girl climbed the handrail of the escalator next to her, and as the escalator rose, the little girl fell from the fourth floor to the hall on the first floor.
In the fourth case, the girl's mother. Despite the large amount of compensation paid by the mall, the mother's spirit was still devastated, and she went to the basement floor of the mall alone for a long time, squatting on the ground and sobbing.
After repeated dissuasion by security personnel, the woman finally stopped coming to the mall. Three months later, the woman jumped from where her daughter had fallen.
In the fifth case, the decoration fence of the mall was blown by strong winds, and a billboard killed a male pedestrian passing by.
According to the mission description, the ghost who continues to hunt us is likely to be one of the deceased in these unnatural deaths. ”
Li Ang also obtained this information through the intelligence broker mule, and scanned the body movements of the other players, and found that everyone was not too surprised, and obviously did their homework.
"It doesn't have to be a ghost," the plague doctor began, "and if you plan for the worst, there's a good chance that five ghosts will patrol the mall together." ”
"Well..... Ao Yong frowned, "There is indeed such a possibility." ”
The Lost Airship snorted coldly and said, "Five ghosts correspond to five players, and the system also prompts us to hide sound and light.
In other words, the system defaults that the five of us players cannot rely on the way of grouping at the beginning to defeat and destroy all the ghosts head-on, and can only take hidden means. ”
If you are positive, you will die, which is not good news.
Ao Yong took a deep breath, "Anyway, our mission is to search the mall, find the talismans, and face the talismans on each floor. ”
He swept around his teammates, took five small tablets from his backpack, and handed them out.
"These tablets have software installed on them that can hack into the mall's monitoring system, and they are on the desktop.
In addition, we can also make real-time contact through WeChat groups to determine the location of the other party, so as not to get close to each other and cause ghosts to chase and kill.
According to the setting of ghosts to track sound and light, I recommend that you only use the tablet in silent mode when you can ensure your safety, and communicate with each other through WeChat and only by typing. ”
Yo, so well prepared.
Li Ang took the tablet from Ao Yong's hand with some surprise, and after inspecting it and feeling that there was no problem, he and several other people added WeChat friends and formed a WeChat group.
He didn't plan to really use the tablet given by Ao Yong, the heart was separated from the belly, not to mention the players who met for the first time, and they still had to use their own mobile phones after they were separated.
It's a pity that during the mission, players can't use the private chat of friends in the killing game system, otherwise they won't need to be so troublesome.
In the next few minutes, the five players got used to the monitoring software of the tablet, until the bell rang at 12 o'clock in the morning, and when Li Ang opened his eyes again, he found himself wearing a blue security uniform, holding a flashlight, and a rubber baton hanging from his waist.
Standing in a dead and silent dimly lit hallway.
Five ghosts, five players, six floors, six talismans.
It's really... It's funny...
Leon turned off the flashlight and bent his waist against the wall.
