196 The main city of the game

The main city of the game has always been lively, and after players have cleared a game, very few people will immediately move on to the next game.

After all, there are many dangers in the dungeon, and no one knows if they can come out alive in the next game, so naturally they will not enter without entering, so most of them will choose to spend points to rest in the main city of the game for seven days, and the main city of the game is also the place with the most players.

But today's main city of the game is exceptionally lively, even to the point of being noisy.

There are also players in the main city of the game who did not go to the forum, and the players who looked at the noise were puzzled.

"What's going on today? Everybody's crazy? ”

The player next to him was surprised, "Don't you know yet!?" A big guy released a bounty task with 100,000 points! ”

"One hundred thousand?" The uninformed player was directly shocked, and his eyes were full of disbelief, "Are you sure it's 100,000?" ”

"Oh, that's wrong, it's not a hundred thousand."

The uninformed player rolled his eyes, and he said, how can there be a reward of 100,000 yuan, even the highest of the kind of high-level dungeons that have no survivors under the recruitment of bodyguards has only seen 10,000.

The player corrected his statement, "It's 400,000." ”

"How many !!?" The player suspected he had misheard, "Four hundred thousand!?" ”

The player didn't wait for the other party to answer and directly denied it, "Impossible, you coax ghosts, the highest score of the bounty task is only 100,000, okay, don't you cheat people to make drafts now?" ”

"Yes, so the bounty task is issued by the four bosses, but the content is all one, find a player."

"And look at the description, it's the same player."

The tone of what the other party said was very true, and there was no sign of weakness, but this lie was broken as soon as it was poked.

The unsuspecting player directly took out his mobile phone, logged in to the forum, and then saw the four top bulletin boards, and silently counted the digits of points after clicking on it.

One, ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, thousand, one hundred thousand.

It's really 100,000 ......

The player was directly dumbfounded, and there were many players who had not logged in to the forum before.

Players quickly clicked on the other three bounty missions, all of which were the same 100,000.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say 400,000, because the bounty task is looking for the same player, and if you find it, you can get points for four bounty tasks at the same time.

That's 400,000.

When a tall player sees the bounty points, he doesn't want to take a screenshot of the bounty mission page and send it to his squad.

【Are you free?】 Who's going to do it!!? 】

【Grass !! Four hundred thousand! Really? I'm coming, I'm coming! 】

[What the could be more important than this, even if you don't have time, you have to be free!] Count me in!! 】

There is no danger, and the points are so high that they look up, so stupid people don't come.

If you do, it's pie in the sky.

The power of one person is limited, and many players immediately found a player with whom they had a better relationship or knew after seeing the four bounty tasks in the game forum.

After all, it's not just that it's difficult to find someone, even if you find someone and want to catch the other party, it's also a requirement that you must be unscathed.

And the players who can make the big guys on the leaderboard offer a bounty may be very strong, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to catch the other party without teaming up.

However, even if ten people team up to find it together, one person can get 40,000 points after finding it.

It is also definitely a number that most players can't reach.

The entire main city of the game was directly boiling, and it was noisy like never before.

Just to find a player.

......

Ruan Qing was woken up by hunger, and when he woke up, his head still hurt a little, but it was better than before he went to sleep.

He took a shower, changed his clothes, put on his hat and mask, and prepared to go downstairs for dinner.

This time, Ruan Qing plans to stay for seven days before entering the game.

But as soon as Ruan Qing opened the door, he heard a commotion outside.

A crowd of players poured into the door of the hotel that was usually not anyoney.

Ruan Qing paused directly and continued to go downstairs without rashness.

Because it's very wrong.

The hotel he chose required a very high number of points to stay, three times higher than the points of ordinary hotels.

Many players are reluctant to get this point, so there are basically no people to live there.

He also deliberately chose this one in the first place, in order to avoid most players.

But now so many people are coming in......

Ruan Qing stood upstairs and looked down vaguely, and there was a group of players standing in the lobby of the hotel, as if they were about to check in.

But what the players talked about had nothing to do with check-in at all.

- I don't think it's possible to be here, the accommodation here is ridiculously expensive, as long as you don't have a stupid brain, you can't choose this place.

INTERVIEWER Maybe what you think is impossible is the most likely place?

- Indeed, the most frequented places have already been found, and it is clear that they are hidden in places that are less likely to be thought of.

- But the person hasn't found it yet, the points have been spent first, and if you can't find it in the end, you will definitely lose money.

- It makes sense, those who are willing to follow me in to find it can take out their points and go in with me, and if they don't want to, they will quit the team.

After Ruan Qing saw what a few people said, his eyes narrowed imperceptibly for a moment, this group of people are looking for someone?

And it's still aimlessly looking for someone?

You must know that the main city of the game is very large, and if you look for someone without regard for points, either this group of people is collectively crazy, or the person you are looking for is extremely important to them.

Either that...... There are enough interests to drive.

The main city of the game is a relatively safe existence, it is forbidden to use any props, and it is also forbidden to fight, once something violates the rules, there will be guards in the main city of the game to take the violating players away.

So even if you are looking for someone, you will not be in a hurry to blindly look for it regardless of points.

You should know that the points for searching the hotel are much higher than staying at the hotel, and you also need to appease the players who stay at the hotel.

Then only profit is left to drive the situation.

Profit-driven words are much more common, and player forums offer a dedicated quest bounty module where other players can pick up quests and earn extra points.

Ruan Qing took out his mobile phone and clicked on the forum, and before he could click on the task reward module, he saw four bulletin boards hanging on the homepage, as well as many posts with '100,000' and '400,000'.

Ruan Qing knew that the bulletin board needed five thousand points, so he clicked on it without thinking about it.

After Ruan Qing saw the content clearly, he froze directly.

...... Who is looking for this...... It can't be him, right?

Ruan Qing was silent for a few seconds, then scrolled down to see the reward points, which were exactly 100,000.

The other three bounty quests are identical, except for the verbal descriptions, but it's also obvious that the four are looking for the same player.

Ruan Qing didn't want to admit that he was being found, but after seeing the familiar names that posted the bounty, he had to admit that it was him.

400,000 ah......

That's a lot of money.

Ruan Qing glanced at the players downstairs who were still negotiating with the hotel owner, returned to the room without thinking, and then locked the door.

400,000 points is definitely enough to plunge players in the entire main city of the game into madness.

Even he himself was a little moved, and he couldn't wait to take the 400,000 by himself.

This is probably one of the purposes of those four people, no player can resist 400,000, even if it is difficult for him to resist.

400,000 is enough for him to completely cure his heart disease, and even enough for him to directly change to a body he likes.

Even exchanging for props to cover his aura and physique is more than enough.

But Su Zhen's people are definitely not good talkers, and their force value is so strong that they are against the sky, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to run away if they are found by those people.

Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

The easiest way to avoid being found now is to go into the dungeon.

If you enter the dungeon now, your body will disappear in the main city of the game, and players will not be able to find him.

But this has a huge drawback.

There are only two ways for players to enter the game's main town.

The first is to teleport directly to the location before entering the game, and the second is to teleport to the entrance to the game's main town.

That is to say, after he enters the game, as long as he squats in this room or at the entrance of the main city of the game, he can wait for him sooner or later.

Unless he never enters the main city of the game again.

But the dungeon is extremely dangerous, and the system settlement space can only stay for one hour, and there will always be times when you are tired.

Like he is now.

Entering a dungeon in this state is definitely not a wise decision.

So there will definitely be times when you need to go to the main city of the game to rest.

Moreover, the player forum can only be opened in the main area of the game, and a lot of information can only be obtained in the main area of the game.

It is obviously impossible to stop entering the main town of the game.

And it was only a matter of time before the players found this place, after all, his previous disguise was revealed by Su Zhen and Lu Rufeng.

This place couldn't stay any longer.

But there is only one exit from the hotel, and if you want to get out, you can only go through the main gate.

Now that a group of players had gathered in the hall, he would definitely be recognized if he went down at this time.

Ruan Qing opened the curtains and carefully observed the street below.

The streets are also full of people, and every shop or hotel is being checked little by little.

Players rarely act alone, after all, it is this kind of large-scale search for people, and acting alone is obviously not enough.

Some are from a guild, some are from a team, and some are just improvised.

There are not a few temporary teams, after all, the entire main city of the game is too big, and the few people I know are not enough.

Anyway, 400,000 even if 100,000 people divide it, there are still 4,000, and there will definitely be no loss.

The player downstairs probably wants to enter the hotel with the least number of points, and is still negotiating with the boss NPC.

Ruan Qing took a closer look, and the team downstairs also had the kind of temporary joining the team.

Judging by the stance and distance, there are at least ten or so players who are not familiar with each other.

Because it is a subconscious defensive posture, the distance is also a kind of self-safety distance in the bottom of the human heart.

It's like if there is only one person in the elevator and a stranger goes in, the two people will definitely subconsciously stand in two corners.

Ruan Qing observed the players downstairs, and then the players passing by outside the window.

After a few seconds, I clicked directly on the game store.

......

There is no restriction that the shops in the main city of the game must be NPCs, and some are also opened by players.

As long as you have enough points, you can open any store.

It's just that the shops that players generally open are related to props and weapons, and they rarely open some shops for eating, drinking, and having fun.

There is no need to check the player's store, because the other party must also be thinking about the 400,000, and it is estimated that he has already checked it himself.

So players focused on the kind of shops opened by NPCs.

Points are the common currency of the entire infinite horror game, and they are also the common currency of the main city of the game, and NPCs also like points.

However, NPCs can't enter the player's forum, nor can they take over the player's bounty task, even if the NPC wants to get points, they won't go to the trouble to check it in vain.

So if the other party hasn't been found yet, the biggest possibility is in the shop opened by the NPC.

The players downstairs negotiated with the NPC boss for a long time, and finally negotiated the points, and finally entered the hotel to search.

There were very few people living in this hotel, which made it easier for them to search.

The hotel has six floors, and the players are directly divided into three teams, one team to find two floors, which will be more efficient.

Whether it's a room with people or a room with no one, the players search through them all, and finally it's the turn of the room at the end of the corridor on the third floor.

Check the third floor is the players of the three teams, the player looks at the registration form of the NPC boss, this room is occupied by a young male player.

And according to the description of the boss NPC, this player is dressed a bit like the player who was bountyed.

The players stopped knocking on the door and swiped it directly with the room card given by the boss NPC.

"Drip β€”β€”!" With a bang, the door to the room opened.

After the door opened, the players entered without hesitation.

However, the room was empty.

One of the players quickly glanced around the room, and no one was there, "Look for them separately." ”

The players immediately went into the toilet balcony and other places to rummage, and did not even let go of the bottom of the bed.

No one noticed that when the door was opened, there was a person hiding behind the door.

No one noticed that there seemed to be an extra person in the team that was seriously looking for someone.

The man looked and dressed in an ordinary way, no different from the players who came and went downstairs.

The man was extremely serious and very positive, and at first glance he wanted the 400,000 very much.

Such people are all over the streets today, and they are very inconspicuous.

And if there are players who know hypnosis, they will definitely find that there are big problems with the layout and pattern of the room.

It gives people the feeling that their brain is a little blurry at a glance, but they can't notice it.

However, after the extra people actively searched, the layout of the room became a little messy, and the pattern also changed.

I can't find that feeling anymore.

Even if the hypnotic player looks at it, he probably won't see anything wrong with the room.

The players searched the room but couldn't find any figures.

However, the information given by the boss NPC shows that the player did not go out.

One of the players thought for a moment, and spoke with some hesitation, his tone full of uncertainty, "...... Could it be that you are in the dungeon? ”

The other players nodded when they heard this, it was indeed a possibility.

However, if this is the case, it will be difficult to determine whether the other party is the person on the bounty mission or not.

The players frowned and fell into deep thought.

Only one of the players next to him felt that the player who was speaking was a little confused, and he scratched his head in confusion.

Just...... Is there such a person?

And was there just eight of them? Isn't it seven?

The player wasn't sure, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

After all, there are too many people who join temporarily, and there are players who quit halfway, and the liquidity is a bit large.

It's obviously hard to remember people.

And the team just now is also randomly divided, everyone can go to which team they want to go to, the number of people is not fixed, and it is not impossible to change a team temporarily.

I'm looking for them together, and I'm looking for them so seriously, I guess they're people on the same team.

The main thing is that he can still feel close to each other, and he shouldn't be a stranger, but his memory is not very good.

The player suppressed his doubts and followed the other players to find the next room.

The players rummaged through all the rooms in the hotel, and there was nothing suspicious except for the one that was empty.

The player in that room should have entered the game.

One player suggested secretly placing a miniature monitor in that room, so that if the player returned, they would be the first to know.

There's no need to leave someone here to guard it.

Other players think it's a good idea, but it's a bit lacking in morality, and the means are very dirty.

At first glance, it's not something a good person can come up with.

The most abundant players in infinite horror games are this kind of player, who will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, and even pull other players as substitutes when necessary.

The players glanced at the proposed player and praised him unconcernedly.

The player who was praised smiled a little embarrassedly and did not speak.

It was Ruan Thanh who proposed.

After observing the players' outfits and looks, he redeemed them for similar outfits in the system store.

It's a way to wear five out of ten people in this outfit, which is easy to overlook and doesn't make a big impression.

Coupled with hypnotic suggestion, it's easy to feel that his presence is justified.

However, although Ruan Qing is low-key in dressing and appearance, he does not choose to be low-key in behavior.

At this time, the more you reduce your sense of existence, the easier it is to be suspected, and it is better to take the initiative and actively make suggestions, which will make people subconsciously eliminate his suspicion.

Therefore, Ruan Qingcai spoke out his guesses and thoughts very seriously throughout the whole process.

Once the player has searched the hotel, they move on to the next location.

Ruan Qing was also very active in searching together, and his serious attitude was as if he was not being found.

Because it was a collective action of the players, and it was also a team that went out to find someone with great fanfare, no one had come to investigate him yet.

No one even doubted him.

The plan was successful, and it was safe for the time being.

Whether it is in the dungeon or in the main city of the game, players will be tired and hungry, and after looking for someone for a day, players will already be exhausted.

In the end, I chose to take a break for a while, after all, some players may only have a day or two before reaching the seven-day limit.

If you want to stay in the main city of the game after seven days, it is not ten points, but almost one or two hundred points, and the points required are higher and higher day by day, and they are directly doubled.

Not many players will choose to stay in the main city of the game compulsorily, and there are not so many points to stay in the main city of the game.

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the state when entering the dungeon.

Ruan Qing followed the group of players directly to their resting place, after all, leaving this group of people meant being alone.

It is very likely that the single will be investigated by other players, and the risk of exposure will be greater.

The risk of re-mixing into other squads is not low.

It's better to follow this squad.

The person has not been found, and the team has no intention of breaking up for the time being, and only one or two players have chosen to quit.

So Ruan Qing's behavior was not abrupt.

Generally, people in a squad or guild will spend points to buy a resting place to gather.

The squad's resting place is a two-story building.

It's about the size of a villa and can accommodate a lot of people.

Many players have been hungry for a whole day, and after arriving at the resting place, they exchanged their points for steamed buns in the system mall and began to gnaw.

Steamed buns are the cheapest food in the whole infinite horror game.

Although it tastes good to eat in that kind of NPC restaurant, it also costs a lot of points, and many players choose to exchange it for steamed buns.

After all, you only need one point, and ordinary people can eat enough with three steamed buns.

Ruan Qing was silent for a moment when he saw this, and also exchanged the steamed buns, and sat silently in the corner to nibble.

Take a few bites and take a small sip of water.

The steamed buns exchanged in the system mall are a little dry, and they are not as soft as they have just been made.

Since Ruan Qing came out of the first copy, he has never nibbled on steamed buns again, and he has always gone to the restaurant next to the hotel to eat.

But there was no other option at this time.

One player nibbled and noticed the player next to him.

Although it is also a steamed bun, the other party gnaws very elegantly, and it is a little pleasing to the eye.

But it always feels ...... With a hint of pathetic.

Obviously, the other party didn't have any expression, but the player suddenly felt that the steamed bun was not worthy of him, and a trace of forbearance and pity rose in his heart.

This feeling is very inexplicable.

He is not usually such a sympathetic person, and he himself nibbles on steamed buns.

But hell, there's a hint of unbearability.

The player was silent for a few seconds, then exchanged for a fluffy loaf of bread in the system mall and handed it over.

Ruan Qing looked at the bread in front of him, and looked up at the player with some doubts.

The player turned his face away and said a little stiffly, "I accidentally exchanged it wrong before, I don't like to eat this kind of soft stuff, give it to you." ”

This kind of bread can only be exchanged for five points, and it is obviously a lie to redeem the wrong one.

Just as Ruan Qing was about to say no, the player threw the bread directly into Ruan Qing's arms, and then continued to nibble on his steamed buns.

Ruan Qing took the bread and finally whispered 'thank you' to the player.

[System, after I enter the dungeon, you can transfer the points of bread to the player's account.] 】

System: [Okay.] 】

Just as Ruan Qing was nibbling on bread, a few people came in at the door.

A player who was munching on bread immediately greeted him, "Captain, have you caught anything?" ”

The man shook his head slightly, "No." ”

Seven or eight hours have passed since the bounty mission was released, and the bounty mission is still unfinished.

That player is obviously harder to find than everyone thinks.

No wonder the bigwigs on the rankings are willing to spend 100,000 points to find someone.

Ruan Qing was stunned for a moment after seeing the man called the captain, and immediately lowered his head in the next second.

That captain was the tall player he met in "Xishan Community" at the beginning.

Although it doesn't look like a pervert, but if you get along, the risk of being recognized is much greater.

Fortunately, the tall players didn't find anything, and probably didn't expect that the person they were looking for was sitting in their resting place.

After exchanging information with the team members, the tall player sat down next to him and said to the people in the hall, "My time is coming soon, is there anyone who wants to be with you this time?" If you want to be together, you can form a team and enter the game together. ”

"Me." The man who had just handed Ruan Qing bread immediately raised his hand in response, "My time is almost up, I'll be with the captain." ”

After the man finished speaking, he lowered his voice and whispered to Ruan Qing next to him, "What the captain means is to take someone to the next copy, but it is impossible to ask for it, do you want to come?" ”

Ruan Qing hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and finally nodded, "Come on." ”
