Chapter 12: The Murderer Is Too Hard
"It's just red wine?" Doris couldn't laugh or cry.
Kells was aggressive, "What kind of red wine, why haven't I heard of it, and how do you know it?" ”
Doris was stunned, too, the Sea Clan has not received the cultural baptism of the Great Flower Country, but "Gray Robe" is a bit interesting, and it can perfectly replicate the hometown in her memory.
"Oh yes, it's red wine." Valen finally let go of the worthless fiat currency, and turned to Kells to explain: "This is a drink that appeared in a certain timeline in the world of gray robes, although it is a red liquid, it is actually a kind of wine, and since its discovery, it has been favored by nobles. ”
Kells's face flushed, he had never seen or heard of any red wine, he was afraid that in Valen's eyes, his family's hard-built aristocratic identity had been exposed.
Fortunately, Valen didn't say anything, which made young Kyles feel better, but he remembered all his hatred for Doris who exposed him.
Ignoring Valen's meaningful look at Doris.
Yes, the drink that Master Kells didn't even know, why Doris drank it so naturally, as if she had tasted it countless times.
"Alright, now that Veblen and Griffin are finished, it's Kyles' turn and me. As soon as Kells and I entered the game, we were in the church, but not at the door of the confessional, but in the sanctuary of prayer. We also had a box with us at the time. Of course, both chests are locked, and neither Kells nor I have opened them at this time. ”
After Valen finished speaking, the eyes of the four of them were on Doris who did not appear in the church at the same time, it was really suspicious, why was only Doris not in the church?
Doris didn't care, "Look, even if you show up in the church, don't you need a place to spend the seven days in the game, if I'm not the owner of this Rose Manor, then you can stay here for seven days?" Perhaps, this is the arrangement of the game, such as that newbie protection. ”
Doris is serious nonsense, with the clues she has obtained so far, Doris preliminarily deduces that she is not the murderer, so there is no need to mislead these people to waste their eyes and time on her.
Of course, part of the reason is that Doris took a lot of interest in the game after entering the Grey Robe dungeon, and Doris doesn't deny that a large part of it is because of her perfectionism.
Either don't do one thing, or do it to the best, the best within her ability, and she won't embarrass herself.
"I've checked pretty much before you guys came, and I'll start by saying that I'm completely unaware of my identity and all my previous experiences, and when I find out that I'm entering the game alone, I'll naturally get acquainted with the environment, and with the help of the butler and the maid, I've got a few clues."
"One, my identity is the Duke of Rose, the owner of this Rose Manor, with a butler and a maid by his side; Second, one of the maid's brothers died, and the murderer is unknown. ”
"Do you have any baggage boxes that you can or can't open?" Kyles asked, after all, everyone had it, and it stands to reason that Doris shouldn't have one. No matter how much Kells thought about it, he thought it was suspicious for Doris to appear alone in Rose Manor.
"No, the butler and maid around Seci may have served as a reminder of his identity, you don't need to pay too much attention to Seci, he must not be a murderer."
Valen directly denied Kells, not that he didn't give Kells face, but when Griffin and Vebron looked at Cesi with suspicion at the same time, he realized that the problem was serious.
"Ahem, I didn't make it clear before, there is a general rule for the whole game in the Gray Robe World, that is, the murderer is the one who kills the dead."
What Valen said before was that players in the gray robe world could quickly grasp the situation, and under the premise of completing the task, of course, the less others mastered, the better, but seeing that everyone began to walk into a dead end, Valen had to remind.
After all, there's still game completion there.
The completion of the game is one of the reference indicators contributed by the players of the gray robe world settlement, and whether or not you can find the real culprit is a condition for clearing the level, but the game completion is an indicator that tests the entire team.
In a game, the more people the player chooses to deal with the murderer, the greater the completion of the game, and at the same time, the more clues the player solves, the closer the restoration process is to the truth, and the more complete the game will be.
Players can get a chance to win a lottery after clearing the level, and the entire squad can get an additional lottery if the game completion is greater than 60%.
Although Valen is not a member of the top ten gangs, his gang can also rank in the top twenty, and he is in the middle of the gray robe world level, but in this way, he has not once got an extra chance to draw a lottery.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that there are not many gray robe copies he participates in, but this can't be blamed on him, the patriarchs of their gang have all entered the game as soon as "Gray Robe" appeared, and the number of times they have participated in the dungeon is not much, after all, every time he enters the gray robe copy, it is a gamble with his life and future, and there are too many risks and uncertainties.
The sea clan who can become a gray robe enjoy the treatment of a quasi-aristocratic person in the Kaanrelom Sea, and the original loneliness will be corrupted and reduced with the passage of time.
"No, what do you mean, Valen, is it because I don't have enough brains?" For the first time, Kells doubts his race.
"I mean, if you're a murderer, you'll get into the game one step ahead of all of us, and then, kill the dead yourself, and start the game all over again with all the players."
So, the murderer is the only one who knows his identity.
After Doris said that she didn't know anything about her identity and specially asked the housekeeper and maid to talk to her, Valen immediately ruled out the idea that Doris was the murderer.
It is also a welcome progress.
However, this kind of bargain can only be picked up in the novice player's game.
"But, but, this is too difficult, if a novice draws the identity of the murderer, how can he kill the person?" Kells subconsciously asked.
At this time, Valen really doubted that this young master Kells would not be pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he wanted to squeeze out all the rules he knew.
But with Doris's clear gaze, did he dare not say it.
"Players who get the identity of the murderer will get a hint card with the basic information of the target that the murderer wants to kill, that is, the deceased, and then provide no less than three ways to kill the deceased, and at the same time mark the horses and feet that need to be paid attention to, which is the key evidence for the player to prove the murderer."
Master Kells blinked, "In other words, as long as the murderer chooses a random way to kill the deceased, and then hides his flaws in the subsequent contact with the player, he can quietly wait for the game to end. ”
Valen looked at Kells sympathetically, "All players have to find the murderer or survive; Only the condition for the murderer to clear the customs is not to be accused of being a murderer, or to survive, do you think it's simple? ”
A game defaults to 5 players, in addition to the murderer himself has four votes, these four votes must not be selected correctly, in the low-end game does not consider the highest difficulty threshold, each player votes for the murderer The probability is 20%, and the probability of all four players not hitting is 40.96%, which is really difficult.
High play is not taken into account here, and the probability of high play against the murderer cannot be measured by a simple 20%.
Doris nodded silently, if the murderer's clearance conditions are this, it is indeed a bit difficult, if each player identifies each other, then there is always a player who identifies the murderer, which is a certain death.
Doris thought so and said so.
Valen sighed, "Do you think no one is taking advantage of this loophole, but don't forget to tell if the player's card is a precursor card, which must mean that there is an old player in the team of this dungeon player, and the old player will seriously tell the new player."
There was a painful lesson before, there was a team that tried this way of clearing the level by himself, but unfortunately, the only one who survived in the end was the one who pointed out the murderer, may I ask, are you willing to sacrifice yourself to fulfill others and hand over your fate to Lady Luck? ”
No, no, the smarter people are, the more willing to find the murderer by their own means, and the player who can clear the baptism of the gray robe world and become a gray robe will not put this method on their own alternatives.
"Of course, this is still the premise of the murderer's cooperation, of course you can say, if the murderer does not cooperate, won't he be exposed immediately? Except for the murderer, everyone has cleared the customs. But have you ever thought that maybe the murderer can disguise himself as a quest NPC, do you suspect that the NPC is the murderer? ”
That's where Precursor cards are really powerful.
Each card is hard-won, and it can naturally influence the progress of the game or help the owner lock down the murderer as quickly as possible. Otherwise, cards won't be an inevitable item to increase the difficulty.
"Actually, surviving itself is a paradox, if the player can't find the murderer, it is a failure to clear the level, and the failure to clear the level will cost the price, how can he survive?"
Doris's words made everyone's expressions sink into heaviness.
Yes, before entering "Gray Robe", didn't all players already know that if they couldn't pass the trial of the gods, they would definitely die? Isn't this the same as dying if you can't find the murderer?
Of course, it's too difficult for all players to identify him as a murderer.
"But isn't this too unfair to the murderer?" These are the words that only Master Kells can say.
"Of course not, only if the game completion is greater than 60%, the murderer player will get one mark, and if the accumulation gets three marks, the murderer player will fail to clear the level."
Valen wants to change the baby belt, this baby is too difficult to carry, he is just the most ordinary member of the gang, and he really can't bring such a stunned young man.
It's a pity that he is not qualified to say no, and for the sake of the generous reward given by Young Master Kells's family, he has to do his best to save it.
Valen's whole person is already bad, stupid Kells, can't you ask this curious question in private? Didn't Master Kells notice that since he said this, the expressions of the other three people were wrong?
Probably only the murderer cares about the outcome after defeat, which identity are you standing on, Master Kells?
Of course, Griffin and Vebrun are not worried, and they will forget about the rhythm later, but there is also a Ceci with his own aura.
Because Sisi is a new player, he has the opportunity to clarify the leadership of the team, but once it is confirmed that Kells may be the murderer, he will not be relenting at all.
"Kells, why are you curious about the murderer?" The main problem, of course, is that there is no lack of sympathy in his tone.
Faced with Doris's direct question, only Kells, who was probably out of the situation, did not show surprise.
"I, I just listened to Valen talk about game balance, novice player protection, and I think it's quite similar to the game I played before.
I feel that the gray robe world, as a medium to guide the transcendent world and obtain extraordinary power, cannot be worse than the data configuration of the game I play, so I subconsciously feel that there is something in it. ”
Kells smiled embarrassedly, he seemed a little stupid, how could he compare a normal game to the world of gray robes.
The Grey Robe World was released in the name of the Poseidon Temple, and it was the only way to become a noble Grey Robe, how could he treat the Grey Robe World as a game.
Of course, it is undeniable that he was influenced by Doris, but as long as he substitutes some game terms, it is actually very suitable in the gray robe world.
At this moment, Doris's eyes changed completely when she looked at Kells.
Doris had previously thought that among the four players, Valen won with experience, Wiblen was calm, and Griffin was clever, but Kyles would be the first person in the squad to give up without Valen's help.
Unexpectedly, Wiblen has a good talent for playing, at least above Veblen and Griffin.
Of course, if he had more experience, perhaps Valen would not have been as good as him.
"Kells, who do you think is the murderer?"
During these seven days, all players can submit their own identification of the killer at any time through their character panel, and of course, there is only one chance.
Random suggestions and speculations do not count as formal submission of answers.
"Me?" Facing Doris's focused eyes, Kells actually felt a little flattered, he obviously hated Doris before, how could he ......
"I think Valen is the murderer."
