Chapter 35 Mission Statement
"Everyone here is a veteran player, you should know how difficult a fantasy is, the theme only accounts for 30% at most, and the real variables come from the theme prefix and clearance mode."
"The full name of this fantasy is - the school of ability Apocalypse (Guard), as far as the information obtained so far is concerned, the main plot NPCs in it are no longer ordinary people in the original book, but everyone has a rather powerful ability, and what players have to do in the fantasy world is to protect these plot NPCs, and ensure that at least one of them escapes from the bed master city within ten days."
Hearing this, the players below looked at each other - so that is considered a clearance? It's a bit too simplistic, isn't it?
The man in the suit obviously knew what was going on in the minds of the people below, smiled meaningfully, and said, "Do you think this mission seems unbelievably simple?" Next, I'm going to tell you what is terrifying about this fantasy that has caused Japanese players to sink twice in a rowβ"
As he spoke, the man in the suit pressed the controller in his hand again, and a photo of a zombie appeared on the projection screen.
It was an extremely ordinary male zombie, wearing a black suit that was almost the standard for office workers in the Japanese country, with white and swollen skin all over his body, and crawling white maggots could be faintly seen in the bloody wounds.
The only difference between the zombies seen in the past is that the flattened two-dimensional painting style, although it is still hideous and terrifying, it is obviously less visually impactful than its three-dimensional counterpart.
"This is the 'dead body' in the original book, and there is basically no essential difference from the zombies we killed in other biochemical illusions in the past - no vision, only able to rely on hearing to prey, not afraid of pain but slow to move, weak in the head and spine."
"The only difference is that these dead bodies are more durable, 15 points each, you can roughly measure it with reference to this."
There was a buzzing sound from below, and many players began to have a solemn look on their faces.
The criteria for judging points are not as simple as 1:1, if a dead body is worth 15 points, then it means that their comprehensive attributes must be at least twice that of ordinary zombies.
The players here are basically veterans who have experienced more than three illusions, and a zombie with double attributes is really nothing to them, at most it is just a matter of making up for one more knife.
But don't forget, zombies have never been monsters known for their individual strength, their most terrifying thing is their almost infinite number, it doesn't seem to matter if one makes up for one more knife, but what if it's ten? What about a hundred?
Once you are trapped in the corpse, let alone delay for a second, even if it is a distraction, it may be the difference between life and death.
"It's just an appetizer."
The man in the suit pressed the controller, and three other zombies of different shapes appeared on the screen again.
The first zombie was bloated, twice as large as ordinary people, and its mouth was constantly flowing with green mucus, and it looked like a fat man with mental retardation.
The photo of the second zombie is a little blurry, with a phantom image caused by high-speed movement, and a short figure like a half-grown child can be faintly seen.
The third zombie is the most shocking, with a tall body of three meters, muscles knotted under the turquoise skin, and a hideous face unique to zombies, just like a terrifying version of the Hulk.
"Aren't these three zombies familiar? I can tell you unequivocally that their names are vomiter, hunter, and tank, and they were originally from the game "Survival Road", and they are also in this fantasy world. β
This time, the faces of the players below were finally no longer relaxed, although they had not dealt with these three monsters, but they could roughly deduce how difficult these three monsters were based on their appearance alone.
"By the way, these three special zombies are not the bosses in this fantasy world, just some elite monsters......"
"And what is the boss creature of this illusion?" One of the players in the audience raised his hand and asked.
The other players are sitting on their backs, and that's obviously their concern.
"The boss you know so far is actually the plot NPC you are escorting." The man in the suit smiled faintly and said an answer that no one expected.
"Plot NPCs? How can that be a boss? "The players are getting more and more confused.
"Seriously, I was just as surprised as you were when I learned about this." The man in the suit pressed the controller, and another picture appeared on the screen.
This time, the photo is no longer a zombie, but a beautiful purple-haired girl wearing a cherry blossom pattern yukata on a blue background, with a slender and tall figure.
Many players who are familiar with the original book can't help but exclaim at the same time: "Poison Island Tsuko! β
Poison Island Tsumiko is the most popular female character in "School Apocalypse",A beautiful girl with a classical temperament like Yamato Nadeshiko.,Personal combat effectiveness is extremely strong.γ
If you were to choose which NPC character was the easiest to protect in a mission, Poison Island would be the undisputed number one.
"Wait...... Doesn't seem quite right? β
After careful observation, everyone in the audience realized that the poison island in the photo did not seem to be the gentle kendo beauty they had in their impression of the original book.
Not only is he taller, but his temperament is also obviously more violent and bloodthirsty, and there are two more red sharp horns more than half a foot long on both sides of the long purple hair on his forehead, a pair of beautiful eyes and fierce eyes, and a flickering golden arc can be faintly seen above and below his body, like a devouring ghost in the myths and legends of the Wa Kingdom.
"This is the ability of Poison Island Tsuneko - ghost deification." The man in the suit didn't sell it, and directly explained in detail to everyone: "But this is not the ghost deification in the normal state, but the super ghost deification under the ability to go berserk." β
For this astonishing information, the person who knew most about it was probably Luo Jie.
As the theme of this fantasy is "Apocalypse of the School of Abilities", each NPC character has a powerful ability that is unique to them.
However, this ability is a double-edged sword, and under normal circumstances, it certainly makes it easier for the player to protect the story NPC during the mission, but on the other hand, once the story NPC dies, its body will quickly be bossed under the effect of the zombie virus, and the ability will be increased several times.
Among them, the ability of Poison Island Tsuneko's "Ghost Deification" is the most terrifying, and there is no need to even die himself, as long as he continues to kill zombies to a certain number, there may be an irreversible ability to go berserk, indiscriminately attacking all life forms within his sight.
Based on this photo alone, Luo Jie couldn't tell whether this was a boss-like poison island or a poison island with a rampaging ability, but no matter which one it was, the members of the player team escorting her must have already cooled down.
"The plot NPC will be bossified after death, and the biggest difficulty of this task is actually here......" After explaining the photo, the man in the suit on the stage paused for a moment and said with a solemn expression: "So here I want to remind you of a word - if you feel that the plot NPC you escorted is no longer saved, don't hesitate to run." β
