Chapter 1 Omni Hotel
Opening his eyes in a daze, Sun Xin found himself lying on the dry earth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he looked at it, and saw that the sky was a strange silver substance, which shrouded a radius of ten meters or so, and existed in the form of a cover.
There was no worn, yellowed ceiling, no noisy fan, this was not his room, there was nothing but dirt and a silver hood.
Unable to remember why he was here anyway, Sun Xin sat up with his hands on the ground with a puzzled feeling.
Rising from the ground, his blurred vision finally recovered, Sun Xin looked around again, and saw dozens of men and women in this silver cover who were not awake except for the dirt, and he counted them carefully, counting himself a total of sixteen, and that was all there was here.
There were no madmen with knives, no bandits with masks, there were only sixteen men and women who were not impaired, and that was it, as if they were just bored and went to a strange place, and then happened to be sleepy together, so they slept on the ground together.
Unable to comprehend the current situation, Sun Xin simply did not think about it, and instead observed the silver shroud that shrouded them. The silver shroud was not transparent, its appearance was very similar to electricity, except for the entity that enveloped them, it did not move any other way, I don't know if it had a certain duration, or if there was a switch, but after walking around, he still didn't find anything suspicious of a switch.
However, Sun Xin believed that they had to open this thing as soon as possible anyway, otherwise the oxygen consumption of the sixteen people would be a serious problem before they were hungry - especially when they were extremely nervous due to their sudden appearance in an unfamiliar place, and the oxygen consumption would become significantly faster.
Thinking about it, he picked up a stone from the ground, put it in the hands of a man in a neat suit, and threw it into the silver cover with his hand.
With a bang, faintly visible ripples spread out in circles around the hood.
In the next situation, Sun Xin had already prepared. Whether it was the man in the suit who was attacked, or alarmed by the people outside, or directly attacked himself as the culprit, he would not be surprised.
However, unexpectedly, the stone only paused the moment it touched the cover, as if the kinetic energy was absorbed by an invisible force, and the stone slowly fell to the ground without any movement.
This is technology beyond modern times.
Silently analyzing the information he had now obtained, Sun Xin sat back on the ground thoughtfully, and began to try to sum up the information at hand: first, from this situation, there is no obvious aggressiveness, and the effect on us is to restrict more than to close.
Second, in reality, at least in his cognition, human beings should not have this kind of technology. And even if there were, it was estimated that it would not be used on an ordinary person like him, he asked himself to live a peaceful life, and he did not provoke big people or suspicious organizations.
Third, the anti-theft equipment in his home is perfect, and he has no pain in his body after waking up, no dizziness after being knocked unconscious, and no memory of inhaling special gases. It can be guessed that the other party knocked him unconscious and took him away in an unknown way.
And even if you don't consider the first and second issues, is it really worth the time to kidnap yourself as an ordinary person? The benefits are not proportional to the pay, the kidnappers are a headless business, who would kidnap an ordinary person casually.
In summary, Sun Xin reckons that he may have won the jackpot, and it may be an event with a bit of a high consumption rate, so he is not the only one to win the jackpot - a total of sixteen people have won the jackpot, and those who are just as lucky as him are still drowning in sleep.
Sitting on the ground bored, Sun Xin lowered his head, and suddenly found that there was an extra table-like instrument on his right wrist at some point. But before he could study it with great interest, the rest of the winners began to come to their senses.
Sun Xin observed these people with curious eyes, but found that these guys who could barely be regarded as companions to him included a white-collar worker, a woman in a women's professional suit, a flat-headed man, a man in a captain's uniform, an old man in his seventies, and a female middle school student.
Shaking his head, the rest of the people Sun Xin didn't bother to look at it, these people didn't seem to be usable, except for the guy in the captain's uniform who looked like a professional, the rest were just ordinary people, and even the elderly over seventy years old had them.
After these people found themselves in a strange place, except for a few people who made a fuss in panic for a while, the others either observed or retreated to a safe distance, and had no tendency to make contact with people. Looks like everyone is a rookie and no one knows what's going to happen next β or is someone pretending to be a rookie? Sun Xin maliciously guessed.
When the last person was awake, Sun Xin was fiddling with the strange watch on his wrist. At this moment, a cold and mechanical voice suddenly sounded from his head, saying: "Procedure one, test whether the chosen person is awake, one... Two... Three. After completing the test, all selected subjects are awake and proceed to Procedure 2. β
"Procedure 2, Information Introduction."
"Hello, all the Chosen One. I'm sure you're thinking about "let me go" and "who are you?" by now, but these are nonsense, and no one will answer you. All you have to do is survive the scenes, become stronger, and clean up the enemy team for your master. β
"The danger of the race is enormous, but the rewards are also huge. Everything can only be chosen by yourselves, and the rewards for easy tasks will naturally be small, and the rewards for difficult tasks will be rich. As long as you are strong enough here, you can exchange everything you desire, anything. β
"There are endless opportunities and possibilities in this game, and of course, the answers to the questions of how to get stronger and how to get strong are also endless, but everything revolves around the reward. Reward reward reward, only the reward is the pass in this game and the answer to all questions. As for how to get the reward, you need to figure it out for yourself. β
"Procedure 2 is complete, proceed to Procedure 3."
"Procedure three, prohibitions."
"Don't kill teammates, violators will lose 1,000 bonus points. Information about the match cannot be revealed to the characters in the scene, and 10 bonus points will be deducted for violation. After completing the task, the reward point is negative, and the person dies. β
"Procedure 3 is complete, move on to Procedure 4."
"Procedure 4, Mission Information."
"Since there are no veteran fighters who have spent at least one mission in this mission, we have specially provided information for this mission. Mission Type: Survival. Difficulty: 4 to 1 star. Number of fighters: zero. Number of recruits: sixteen. β
"Mission: Survive for six days. A two-star card, 2,000 reward points. β
"Hint: Coming out of the grave, crawling with wriggling insects, filthy and smelly, eyes blank, cold skin, and no breath in the chest.
Its soul is as black as night, and the sword cannot hurt its body, so it is fearless.
He lives forever, thirsting for the blood of the living, and delights in eating the bones of the dead. β
"The cowardly die many times in life, and the brave die only once in their lives, my warrior, fight bravely."
Opening his eyes again, Sun Xin saw the unconcealable fear in the eyes of those people, and they looked at each other helplessly, but neither of them spoke. Sun Xin could understand their thoughts, they didn't want to believe that they were involved in such a dangerous and strange thing, but they couldn't deny the facts in front of them, silence was the only thing they could do.
And from that passage, Sun Xin understood even more that no one here can be trusted, at least no one can really trust until they become familiar with it. The only thing he can rely on is himself, as killing a teammate only deducts 1,000 bonus points, but completing a mission gives him 2,000 bonus points. In this way, the clear price not only does not play a deterrent role, but allows people to estimate how many people they can kill when necessary.
Raising his right wrist again, Sun Xin carefully observed the table-like instrument, he had pressed the button on this thing, and nothing was triggered at that time. But now, when he pressed the button, a three-dimensional light suddenly shot out from the interface of the instrument, and finally formed a line of text suspended in mid-air in front of his eyes.
Seeing this, others also drew gourds in the same way and learned from Sun Xin. Sun Xin didn't care about them, and was engrossed in scrutinizing this line of writing--
Survive for six days. A two-star card, 2,000 reward points. It's easy to understand, and it's a literal one, and the mission only requires them to survive for six days. And the meaning is obvious, is it difficult to survive for six days? No, on the contrary, it is easy, but the easier it seems, the more suspicious it becomes.
According to the explicit quest prompt at the beginning, Sun Xin estimated that the one who attacked them was zombies - well, even if he was an idiot, he could probably tell that he was depicting zombies, and he had nothing to show off. The two-star card mentioned in the reward, compared to the four-star to one-star difficulty of the scene, then the two-star task will be at least a little more difficult than the one-star difficulty of the lowest scene.
As for the more detailed situation, he could not make up his mind until he had personally encountered the world and understood how difficult it was to be a one-star star.
"Everyone!"
At this time, a white-collar worker with fresh short hair and a medium build stood up, and after everyone noticed him, he said loudly: "I believe everyone understands that this is not our original world, at least the technology and technology here are definitely not what our original world had." As he spoke, he pointed first to the silver hood, then to his own head.
As this white-collar worker stood up, people's eyes were focused on him, and this white-collar worker seemed to be the leader in reality, without the slightest embarrassment, and still vaguely commanded in a gentle tone: "Then, if someone can't hear it just now, or what they heard is not about the game, please raise your hand." β
Seeing that no one raised his hand, the white-collar worker loosened his tie and said with a smile: "Then, I believe everyone understands that we are already in the same boat..."
"That's the end of the, who do you think you are?"
Suddenly, a cold male voice interrupted the white-collar worker's speech, Sun Xin looked over there, it was the strong man with a flat head, I saw him say calmly: "There will be danger in the past six days, and the task prompt is clear enough, since it is to resist the zombies, then choosing teammates is also part of the game, right?" No one wants to die, but it's clear that only smart people with discernment can survive in this game, right? β
Everything this man said made sense, and it didn't look like what a man like him would say. But Sun Xin knew that it was this kind of rude-looking person who could say these cruel words on behalf of everyone on the scene, and did a tattooed strong man mean that he had no brains? Presumably only people who think this way are real idiots.
The tattooed man's speech was naturally recognized by most of the people at the scene, and only the white-collar workers who wanted to be leaders and the two women who were obviously sanctioned felt dangerous and uneasy.
There were a lot of beads of sweat on the white-collar collar forehead, and he was obviously nervous, but he still said calmly: "It's too much for you to say this, it's also a fate for us to be in the same team, how can you give up on them because of their gender?" I don't think it's appropriate. β
"Who said they were going to give them up? You're weird, aren't you? β
At this time, the man who was wearing the captain's uniform and had already formed a small team with the tattooed strong man stood up and explained with a smile: "Our captain just thinks they are not suitable for our team, but that doesn't mean we have to give up on women, right?" Like we also think that you are not suitable for our team, do we say that we give up on men? β
When the other party said this, the white-collar man was speechless, and he opened his mouth to speak for a long time, but he couldn't even say half a sentence.
Seeing this, Sun Xin knew that this person was hopeless, and his dream of leadership could probably only be fulfilled in a dream, or on those two women - provided that the two women who were both pleasing were willing to choose his mentally handicapped team.
Soon, after a moment of thought, more than a dozen people present were divided into four teams. Among them, the team of tattooed strong men is undoubtedly all men, a total of five people; The second team is led by white-collar workers, one old and two men, and it is also an all-male class; The third team consisted of only three people, led by youngsters who looked quite excited, and it was still an all-male class.
As for the fourth team, it was led by Sun Xin - well, he didn't think about it at all, he didn't think that he would be considered the fourth team if he was alone, and what if he was a three-person candidate? Compared to the hot-blooded white-collar man, he hasn't said a word, and he hasn't even looked at them, so are those two women M? Is it a physique that gets excited when it's ignored?
Unable to figure out their train of thought at all, Sun Xin looked at the two women and one man who chose him speechlessly, and didn't know what to say now, so he held back for a while before saying, "My name is Sun Xin, and we ...... Well, let's do it together. β
"Okay!" The younger female middle school student looked at him with trusting eyes, nodded politely and said, "My name is Dong Yong, Brother Xin, you can call me Xiaoyong, I am willing to do anything, I will trouble you in the past six days!" β
What the hell is Brother Xin? You look like you're a high school student too, right? It's too much to pretend to be young.,This woman is the kind of troublesome and crooked type.γ There were too many things to say in his heart, Sun Xin found that he had nothing to say for a while, so he could only stare at Dong Yong calmly with an innocent face and nodded.
"Just call me Alma." On the other side, a woman in a professional suit, who looked to be twenty-eight or nineteen years old, with a long ponytail, clasped her hands and said coldly, "I've troubled you for the past six days." β
Almaβ¦β¦ Miss Emma, is it in a commanding tone that you have been bothering you for the past six days? What's wrong with this man? The attitude looks more like I'm joining your team than bothering you, it's your honor, and you don't need to thank - what's wrong with this person's attitude?
And in the end, it was the young man with entangled muscles and tall horses. He happily stepped forward to hold Sun Xin's hand and said admiringly, "Just call me Xiaobin!" I see that Brother Xin, you are not chaotic in the face of danger, calm and disdainful of soliciting others, you must be a confident person. Although I may not be able to help much, if there is anything, just tell me, I will do my best to do it, and I will not hold everyone back! β
Xiao Bin...... Looking at his arms that were thicker than his thighs, Sun Xin just wanted to say Xiaobin, you are not small at all, and you have so many idioms when you speak, I can't imagine that you are also a literate person. Sure enough, he is an answer master who can analyze my expression in a daze and analyze all kinds of deep meanings, and his cultural literacy is good.
After shaking Xiaobin's hand well, Sun Xin suddenly thought that if he said that he didn't lead the team now, he wouldn't be beaten, right? This arm, if he beats him, it should be seriously injured, and if he hits the head, it will be a concussion, right?
After careful consideration, Sun Xin finally decided to follow the will of the people, after all, many times people don't have to run fast when they are in danger, they just need to run faster than others when they are in danger, and looking at Miss Emma's black high heels, Sun Xin is quite relieved that he can run faster than her - as long as Xiao Bin doesn't smash him backwards.
Although the four of them introduced each other to each other, because they were not familiar with each other, they only chatted without a word. And just before the atmosphere turned into an awkward silence, the silver shroud that had been enveloping everyone suddenly disappeared, revealing a world that had been isolated from the outside world.
Sun Xin looked up, and what he saw was the endless blue sky and white clouds, as well as the high-rise buildings that reached into the sky, and their group was in the open-air sky garden in a certain building.
The surroundings are beautiful and make you feel like you're in a real garden - except for the sights that make them look like crazy people gathered in the flower beds.
There is no danger in some kind of dangerous jungle, there are no beasts and monsters, there is no danger, they are in the midst of human civilization.
Everyone was stunned, even if they were as calm as Sun Xin. It's just that Sun Xin's surprise is not the environment, but the familiar place.
This is the Omni Hotel in Los Angeles, and he just came here half a month ago!
