Chapter 40: Are You Looking for Me?
The environment of the Mission Hall resembles a huge and lavish church, and the retro dΓ©cor is themed in red and black, presenting a grotesque aesthetic.
On the walls of the hall, there are a number of displays, one after the other, like paintings displayed in the gallery.
It's just that what is displayed in the hotel is not a painting, but a horror copy.
A display represents a copy of the game, and if you want to access it, all you have to do is write down the number of the copy and enter it in your dashboard.
Or just choose random.
Lin Ling admired the copies as he walked. In Lin Ling's eyes, the covers of these copies are like paintings with horror as the theme.
Eventually, Lin Ling stopped in front of a display with a clown doll and a model train on the cover.
"Hell Train?"
This is interesting.
In the previous world, Lin Ling had taken the train a few times, although his memory was a little blurry because of the long time, but Lin Ling could still roughly remember that the space on the train was very small.
Can this also be used as a copy of the game?
Lin Ling was a little curious, wrote down the number, and then raised his foot and walked forward.
A few seconds after Lin Ling left, the two men walked to the place where Lin Ling was standing before, took out a pen to write down the number of this copy, and then quickly chased in the direction where Lin Ling left.
After that, Dan Fan Lin Ling paused in front of the display screen for a few seconds, or looked at it a few more times, and the two men would write it down.
Lin Ling didn't seem to be aware of it, and stopped all the way.
The two men who followed Lin Ling looked at the notebook with hundreds of copy numbers in their hands, and muttered quietly.
"How do I feel that this girl is not a newcomer?"
The first time a newcomer visits the mission hall, it's like visiting his own back garden?!
What's more, Lin Ling is wearing a set of brand-name white sportswear that doesn't look cheap on Blue Star, no matter how you look at it, she looks like a pampered rich daughter in a wealthy family.
Even if it's a newcomer, it's the kind of newcomer who will only cry and drag his feet as soon as he enters the dungeon.
It can't be a 7463783 that gets more than 120,000 points in the first dungeon.
"Do you care if she's a newcomer? All we have to do is listen to the boss and write down all the copies she's seen. β
As he spoke, the man jotted down another copy.
Newcomer players who enter the game copy of the thriller world for the first time will choose to return to Blue Star to rest after clearing the customs, and only a very small number of newcomers will choose to go to the No-Return Hotel.
When the rookie player 7463783 became the first rookie list with 120,000 points, and squeezed into the list of 1,000 players, it attracted the attention of all guilds.
The new hot list and the thousand-person list are completely different lists.
The rookie list is the rookie player list based on the hotel time.
All rookie players who entered the dungeon during the month will appear on it, and each month there will be a list of hundreds of pages, ranked based on points.
The 1000 list is a list based on all the current points of the player.
It is similar to the Forbes rich list on Blue Star, and the players who can appear on this list are the elite of the elite.
Before the player 7463783 appears, the points of the last player on the 1000 list are displayed as 124998.
In other words, the rookie player 7463783 squeezed the veteran player off the thousand-player list by one point.
Most players are watching the excitement and think that the rookie players are lucky to be on the thousand-person list.
But as long as the player is a little sharper, he knows.
Although the veteran player is only one point less than the newcomer player, the number of quests cleared by the veteran player is 253.
Although the veteran players must have spent a lot of points during this period, it is enough to let them know that the new players are very strong.
If nothing else, it will be a matter of time before a rookie player becomes number one.
Each guild wants to pull the player into their guild, and even gives a lot of preferential treatment just so that new players can join their guild.
And today, as long as the rookie players come out of the elevator, they are secretly targeted by the people of various guilds, trying to find out the 7463783 from it, and pull people to their own guilds.
And Lin Ling...
It was an accident.
Because in the eyes of others, although Lin Ling, who was wearing a mask, was a little faceless, but because of her famous brand and the temperament of a rich daughter, she was the first to be rejected by everyone The possibility of being a newcomer 7463783.
Players who can get 120,000 points 7463783 image in the eyes of various guilds is either high IQ or explosive force value, and they are by no means a pampered daughter like Lin Ling.
The boss of the two men would rather kill by mistake than let go, so he sent them to follow Lin Ling.
The area of the task hall was very large, and Lin Ling walked for more than half an hour without reaching the end.
Just as the two men were muttering how long Lin Ling would have to walk around, Lin Ling suddenly disappeared in front of their eyes.
"What about people?"
"Strange, you were still here just now? How did it disappear in the blink of an eye. β
The two men searched everywhere but found no one.
Just when they were about to give up and go back to explain to the boss with hundreds of copy numbers in their hands, a gentle inquiry suddenly came from behind the two.
"Are you looking for me?"
The two men jerked around and saw the man they were looking for standing behind them.
The silver rose pattern on the white mask is very beautiful under the light of the crystal chandelier overhead, and the long black hair is draped behind the girl like a waterfall, and the special mask makes the two men unable to even see the eyes of the girl under the mask clearly.
Before they could react, Lin Ling raised a hand and snapped his fingers.
"Click-"
The two men's expressions became trance-like, and they crossed Lin Ling and left this place.
By the time the two of them came to their senses, they were back in the guild, and there was an impatient guild leader standing in front of them.
"Did you even listen to me again?!"
The president was very angry, and as soon as the two men came back, they stood in front of him like a log and did not say anything, and they should not scream.
Before the two men's brains could react, their bodies reflexively replied: "We're listening!" β
"Alright, alright, give me the list of copies, you guys go back first."
Seeing that these two people were not very smart, the president took the list and sent them away.
The two of them sighed and turned to leave.
When he walked out of the guild, the short-haired man slapped himself on the head.
"Huh? That's not right! Didn't we just follow that girl? When did we come back? Why am I not impressed at all? β
Here, after getting the list, the leader handed it to the captain of one of his squads without even looking at it, telling him to keep an eye on these dungeons, and follow up as soon as someone enters, so as to verify that the other party is a rookie player 7463783.
"Yes, President! Mission completion guaranteed! β
The team leader thought that there would be only a dozen copies at most, but he didn't expect that the dense copy numbers after opening it made him gasp.
.
[Welcome level 27 players 'Black on the head', level 17 players 'Red Cloud Head', level 17 players 'Strawberries are not sweet', level 17 players 'I don't want to take medicine', level 16 players 'My mom hasn't beaten me for three days'... Tier 1 player '7463783' arrives in the [Hell Train" dungeon. γ
"Passengers on train K748 should note that the train is about to enter the station, so please bring your luggage and go to Gate 14 to check your ticket, and in ten minutes, the ticket will begin."
"Attention passengers on train K748, the train is about to enter the station..."
As soon as the players who entered the dungeon became conscious, they heard the sound of the radio in the station in their ears, as well as the sound of other people talking around them.
"Ma Dan, what time is it!"
The man who was woken up complained unhappily, and then woke up the baby next to him, and the baby's cry instantly spread throughout the waiting hall.
"Good baby, don't cry, don't cry..."
The young mother coaxed the child, and the man wearing a gold watch in the back held the phone and talked loudly.
"I'm already in the station, I've bought you all the things you want, okay, okay, I'll hang up first if I still have something..."
The place where the players are located is a large waiting hall, filled with rows of iron seats, and they are standing in the middle of the hall, and there are quite a few people around. Sweet voices on the radio came from all directions, waking up some passengers who were sleeping on their seats, making the already quiet waiting hall even more noisy.
Some of the passengers of this train got up with their bags and waited in line at the ticket gates.
The sweet voice in the radio was repeated three times, and Lin Ling, who was standing in the crowd, looked at the ticket in his hand, and the train number on the ticket was the K748 number in the broadcast.
She glanced at the other players standing in front of her, then turned and walked out of the waiting hall, leaving in the opposite direction to the ticket gate.
The broadcast prompted that the ticket check would start ten minutes later, but the room manager in the live broadcast room had not yet said the rules and tasks of this dungeon game, and no one of the players took action for a while.
A few players saw the back of Lin Ling leaving, and they only glanced at it and then looked away, treating Lin Ling as an NPC in the dungeon, and didn't pay much attention to it.
Players who were thinking about what the mission would be this time did not notice, and the waiting hall became much quieter.
Especially where Lin Ling walked, the voices of those passengers became quieter, as if they were afraid of disturbing others.
Lin Ling walked to the entrance of the waiting hall, but did not go out.
Outside the waiting hall is the ticket hall, in which several dozing staff are seated, and next to it is a display board of excellent employees, which is densely packed with excellent employees in the station.
After standing at the door for a while, Lin Ling turned around and came to the small supermarket next to him, and hesitantly went in to talk to the proprietress who was knitting a sweater.
Those passengers who had been paying attention to Lin Ling seemed to want to step forward to grab Lin Ling, but before they could act, Lin Ling had already walked in.
A passenger on the phone walks away briskly with his feet up.
This supermarket is about forty square meters, and the cash register is at the door of the supermarket, and there is a middle-aged woman with curly hair who is knitting a sweater, and it seems that she should be the proprietress of this supermarket.
"Auntie, have you ever seen a girl with long hair and a white sweater?"
In the cash register, the proprietress who was knitting a sweater heard someone disturbing her knitting a sweater, especially smelling a stench that belonged to dirty human beings, which made the proprietress who was already in a bad temper irritable directly, and the export was the quintessence of the country.
"Look at it! What to see! You don't see meβ"
But halfway through the words, when I met a pair of beautiful eyes, the more ugly words stuck directly in my throat.
This... Where did this fairy come from?
The proprietress looked at Lin Ling, she didn't come to her senses for a long time, and even the human taste that made her feel unacceptable was ignored.
Lin Ling, who was stared at by the proprietress directly, was a little embarrassed to apologize to the proprietress
"Sorry to disturb you..."
The proprietress who came back to her senses saw that Lin Ling looked like she was leaving, so she hurriedly put down the yarn needle in her hand and stood up and grabbed Lin Ling's wrist.
Realizing that he seemed a little abrupt like this, he let go of his hand again, and asked Lin Ling gently with a smile.
"Don't bother don't bother, what did you just say? Did you ask me if I saw a girl with long hair in a white sweater? Who is she? β
"Yes..."
"She was my cousin, and she said that there was a recruitment in this station, and asked me to come here and wait for her, but I waited for hours and she didn't come."
Lin Ling smiled a little shyly and shyly, with a gentle temperament like water, even if he waited for a few hours, he didn't complain.
The proprietress was upset for Lin Ling.
I was dying, and I actually let the fairy wait here for hours!
If she had such a delicate cousin, where would she be willing to let her wait for hours in this cold station!
The proprietress looked at Lin Ling's eyes and instantly became distressed, got up and walked out of the cash register to take down the most expensive folding chair sold next to it, and then opened it and placed it next to Lin Ling.
"After waiting for so long, you must be tired of standing, right? You sit here for a while, and I'll get you something to eat." β
Saying that, the proprietress was about to go to the small cafeteria to cook, but was stopped by Lin Ling.
"Don't bother, Auntie, I'm not hungry, I just want to ask Auntie have you seen my cousin, or does my cousin work at this station?" My phone accidentally broke and I couldn't reach her. I'm afraid I've misremembered the time or the station. β
After waiting for a few hours, the little fairy will blame herself on herself, and the proprietress really has an urge to scold that cousin at this moment.
"What's your cousin's name?"
"My cousin, her name is Zhou Mei."
"Zhou Mei..."The proprietress suppressed the anger in her heart and thought about it carefully, "It seems that there is indeed a person named Zhou Mei at this station, but the train where she works doesn't seem to have come back yet." β
"Huh?" Lin Ling was stunned, "But my cousin said..."
Before she could finish speaking, the proprietress of the small supermarket interrupted her.
