Chapter 2 The third floor of the department store
The third floor of the department store was still the same as when they came, with only a few large counters filled with a variety of props, and the number was significantly higher than the last time they came.
There are three circular counters, and the three counters are arranged in sequence, and on one side there are also the words "low", "medium", and "high". It seems that the props here are divided into three levels from low to high, which is also unprecedented before.
"It's getting more and more like a game."
Seeing this sort of rank, Wen Qiayun couldn't help but sigh. After hearing this, Xiao Mo also nodded in agreement and said:
"That's true, it's getting more and more like a game."
This change in the curse also made Xiao Mo more determined to speculate about the meaning of the research society, perhaps it can also be said to be a speculation about the evil ghost in his body, that is, he wanted to use the game "extremely terrifying" to gradually invade the curse like a Trojan virus, and then become the core of the true meaning of the curse, so as to completely control the curse.
As early as after the collapse of the Institute, the game and the curse were combined, but the combination was not very high. But as the event progresses, it is not difficult to see that the pattern of the curse release event, as well as the appearance of a wide variety of items with diverse defense capabilities, also indicate that they are becoming more and more combined.
And this also proves that the final hurdle they have to face and must solve is getting closer and closer to them.
The introduction to the final level is only on the last page of the prop manual given to him by Zheng Yonghua, which has a very brief introduction. There are only two important pieces of information revealed in it.
The first point is that the final event will be the most difficult to solve, and at the same time the most dangerous.
The second point is that the number of items accumulated by the escapee will greatly affect their survival probability. Those with more props are more likely to survive, and vice versa is less likely.
It is precisely because of the instructions in the prop manual that they will pay attention to the original chicken ribs (props). Wen Qiayun and Chen Cheng will also decide to get prop rewards in the reward event without thinking.
When he had just stopped, he glanced at the cursed map on the bus, and according to the markings on the map, they were about five events away from the final level.
Of the four events, there is one more chance to enter the bonus event, so all that adds up, they still have six events left to solve. Four normal events, one bonus event, and the final event.
They also have the opportunity to return to the camp to replenish once. In addition, it can be replenished once in the bonus event, but I don't know how many items they can accumulate.
Because the consumption point is limited, Xiao Mo does not have any illusions about accumulating a lot of props.
However, they also have an advantage, because Li Shuai and the little followers are both BUG-like characters, even if they can't shake the root of the curse, they can undoubtedly put a lot of props on top.
Of course, the premise is that they can all enter the final event unharmed, otherwise everything is just a fantasy.
Putting these thoughts behind him for the time being, Xiao Mo began to observe the many props on the three counters. And Wen Qiayun and the little attendant had already gone to the high-end counter one step ahead of him. It seems that I want to see the so-called high-end props on it in advance.
Xiao Mo didn't go over immediately, but came to the low-level counter nearby.
The props on the counter were counted once, and there were forty-eight props on them.
Some of the props were already familiar to him. For example, undisturbed flashlights, master keys, timely positioning, real fake testimonies, and so on.
These low-level props. It feels more like a support item, as they don't defend against ghost attacks and do any damage reduction. Or maybe it's life-saving.
In addition to some props that they had known before, there were several props on it that aroused Xiao Mo's great interest.
One of them is called a real-time recorder. It looks like a miniature version of a video recorder, and looks like a keychain because of the hanging ring on it.
This real-time recorder is worth 50 consumption points, which is a little cheaper than a magic storage bag and a little more expensive than an undisturbed mobile phone.
Although Xiao Mo has a prop manual, the prop manual only has an explanation for the props that have been purchased or have their own. For example, this prop recorded in time is not described in the prop manual at all. However, when he buys the item, the item manual will immediately show instructions on its abilities and how to use it.
Therefore, you have to rely on your brain to think about this huàn prop, and guess the possible role it may have according to the shape and name of the prop. According to his previous experience in buying props, Xiao Mo felt that this timely recording prop was something similar to DV.
As long as you turn it on, you can record what is happening around you anytime and anywhere, and you can extract the video later and use it as a reference.
Speaking of which, Xiao Mo has always felt that they lack research materials. Now the so-called research materials on the bus are still the notes left by the previous boss Gao and Zhang Tianyi at that time, as well as the explanation of the curse and the ghosts in it.
Because it is too different from before, and the notebook body has a considerable amount of water, so these materials have been discarded by him.
And after each event, only Wen Qiayun would occasionally sit with him, review and chat about the last incident. On the premise of having results, reflect on some clues in the incident.
It can be said that many of the conclusions they use now are based on reflection after the end of the incident.
But this is not a material, but just their memory, although his memory is good, but it is still a little short of remembering, and some places are often forgotten by him.
However, if there is such a prop that can record what happened during the event at any time, then this situation can be easily solved. And it is also conducive to them to sort out their thoughts in the incident, and find the solution to the incident faster and more accurately.
Xiao Mo was very optimistic about this prop recorded in time, so after thinking about it, he was the first to put this prop into the trolley. Later, he found the undisturbed mobile phone and put it in with it.
After putting these two props into the trolley, Xiao Mo's eyes fell on a prop that looked like a wine barrel. This wine barrel is only the size of a palm, Xiao Mo picked it up and shook it, and he could hear the sound of the liquid in it vibrating back and forth. (To be continued......)
