Chapter 78: The Knot
"After entering the mission scenario, we are still 'friends', and we can cooperate with each other until the hint is clear." The well-mannered scholar man pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his face and said with a smile:
"In order not to hurt the harmony between friends, everyone still swears that I will come first."
As soon as his voice fell, the rest of the people nodded with smiles.
The scholar raised his hand and said in a similar manner:
"I swear, once everyone enters the mission, I will never sneak up on it."
He lowered his hand, and the young man raised his hand as well: "I swear that I will never sneak up until everyone enters the mission and the situation is unknown." ”
Next, the man in the suit, the inch head, and even the number seven who came in later raised his hand and swore an oath.
Among the several trialists, the elderly woman and Song Qingxiao had not yet sworn an oath.
Everyone's eyes fell on the two of them, the woman seemed to smile and said the words of the scholar, Song Qingxiao looked at this farce, laughing and laughing, but seeing that everyone was waiting for her with a smile, she also followed the customs:
"I swear that once I enter the mission, I will never sneak up on it."
This sentence is actually not binding, and even because of the cruel competition in the trial ground, everyone did not reveal their names when they swore an oath, and they didn't even dare to say anything that violated the oath.
After everyone swore their oaths one after another, the atmosphere became much more 'harmonious' than before, and when the young man proposed that everyone enter the mission scene together, no one had any objections.
A few people walked closer, the man in the suit who entered the trial space first, the scholar of Si Wen and the head of the inch, and the older woman was a little farther away from the three of them.
Among the three people who entered later, No. 7's eyes turned on the No. 6 young man and Song Qingxiao for a long time, and finally chose to stand against Song Qingxiao.
When they were ready, they took a step forward, stepping out of the space and into the thick fog.
At the moment of entering the dense fog, Song Qingxiao subconsciously pinched her hand into a seal, and pressed the other hand on the dagger hidden in her waist, at the same time, she heard the wind in her ears, she instinctively avoided it on one side, a fist grazed her shoulder, she took out the dagger on her waist, and the knife fell, the owner of the fist realized that something was wrong, and she withdrew her hand quickly, but it was not as fast as Song Qingxiao.
Although the dagger failed to hit the hand hard, it also left a shallow scratch on the back of the hand, the flesh was torn, blood slowly spilled from it, and someone in the distance shouted:
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Song Qingxiao quickly sent the dagger back to her waist, put on a defensive posture, blinked her eyes, the dense fog around her dissipated, she stood on a deck, not far away The man in the suit who had sworn never to sneak attack had already moved with the head of the board.
About a step ahead of her, Young Man Six withdrew his fist with a gloomy face, looking at her with a mixture of anger in his eyes.
A cut of about three or four centimeters was made on the back of the young man's hand, but fortunately, the wound was not deep, but the blood flowed very much, and after a while, it converged along the back of his hand in the palm of his hand, and flowed down 'tick-tock'.
Song Qingxiao put away his guard as if nothing had happened under his gaze, took a few steps back and opened the distance between him and the young man, and there were about seven or eight people standing in the distance, frowning, looking at them with an unhappy face, these people should be the characters in the mission scene.
She turned her head to look, the seven trialists in the space were there, this mission seemed to be in the same scene again, everyone was on a big ship, surrounded by an endless sea, seagulls swept over the sea level, the sun was shining, the temperature was very hot, and the sea breeze was blowing with a salty and wet feeling.
"What are you doing?"
As soon as several trialists entered the scene, they immediately defaulted, and the passing of the action was watched by several people on the ship, and they were stopped.
Everyone glanced at each other, and withdrew their hands uncertainly, and a few scene figures standing in the distance came over and frowned:
"We need to work together on this trip."
Judging from the experience of the last trial, Song Qing knew in her heart that sometimes the words of the people in the mission scene would give her great hints, so she nodded obediently, indicating her understanding, and listened quietly to the ear first.
There was no 'click-and-click' countdown in her head like last time, and there was no countdown from the last time in her sight, which should mean that there was no time limit for this mission.
However, the absence of a time limit does not mean that the task will be easy, and she licked the corners of her mouth, most likely this trial is far more dangerous than the last one.
The plot characters on the side were still accusing unhappily, Song Qing was distracted while listening to these people babbling, while paying attention to his sea of consciousness, at this time, after entering the task scene, a prompt really appeared in the sea of consciousness.
This time, the prompt is slightly the same as the prompt in the first trial, but there are some differences.
The difference is that these six circular shadows are not arranged in a square like in the first trial, but the six shadows are united by dotted lines to form a regular hexagonal pattern, similar to the seal shape of the legendary magic array, each shadow is exactly at the corner of the seal.
From the experience of the first trial, it seems that these shadows should need certain events to occur before they can be lit.
Under this hexagonal seal, there is another reminder:
Task?? Completion: 2000 points.
Song Qingxiao's heart moved when he saw the amount of points.
This time the points reward has been upgraded, more than double the last time, and this does not include the reward for subsequent kills.
Historically, the higher the reward, the harder it is to survive.
What's more, in the middle of the task completion, two question marks appeared, and the task prompt of the trial space, each point could not be ignored.
This question mark is very likely to represent an undetermined choice, that is, this mission, most likely, is the same as the previous one, and it is necessary to make a choice in order to finally clarify the direction of the mission.
She took a deep breath and took her mind off the prompt, seeing that each trialist's expression was different.
Some people frowned, some people couldn't hide their joy, some people looked solemn, and some people were worried.
Young man number six looked at her with a sinister look, bit his lip, ripped off the tie around his neck, wrapped his injured hand, and stopped the bleeding.
Song Qingxiao saw his expression in his eyes, this person had already had murderous intent towards her, and from the moment he entered the space and chose to snatch his position, there was a bond between the two.
So after swearing, as soon as he entered the trial scene, he immediately attacked Song Qingxiao, preparing to solve her.
Such a person who is hostile to himself cannot stay.
But she remembered the hint in her consciousness, and vaguely felt that she couldn't easily kill the trialist.
Although with the improvement of everyone's strength, the difficulty of killing people is much greater than that of newcomers, but this trial, there are as many as 2,000 reward points, and the task cannot be simple and brutal cannibalism.
