Chapter 168: Puzzle 3
After having followed the caravan for so long, the situation of the caravan and the basic background of the world have been figured out by the players. This time, the newcomers are full of fighting spirit. I don't know if they are lucky or not. Although no one cared about them at first, they were at a loss, but getting the props at the beginning is a good thing. And afterwards, these newcomers were also secretly popularized by the old players about the basic rules of the game's existence.
Maybe because the start was too smooth, every newcomer has great ambitions in the eyes. There was no fear on the face.
This is not the most important thing, because there is one thing that makes Lin You envious, that is, there is a female player in the newcomer who is actually a priest. This nanny's lack of attack power is insufficient, but she is the talent that various organizations are competing for. This female player is much more popular than other newcomers. On the first day, he was hired by Du Zifang.
Du Zifang was embarrassed by Lin You, but the fire talisman in his hand later proved his power. What's more, compared to Lin You, Du Zifang has several companions. With strength and power, isn't it a reliable thigh in the eyes of newcomers?
Seeing the turbulent situation in Du Zifang, Lin You, Ren Liansong and Ren Liansong's companions all chose to remain silent. Lin You was silent because she had vaguely become the object of everyone's rejection. These people didn't show it in front of the NPC, but after the NPC turned her back, it was true that these people secretly stumbled on Lin You. A lot of. On the contrary, Ren Liansong's reason for being silent is much simpler than Lin You's, just to keep a low profile.
The strength of the wind drive is too strong, which has caused the vigilance of other organizations. He can't take it easy any longer.
No matter how much Lin You wanted to be patient, it was a pity that some people just didn't give Lin You a chance to be patient. For the past three days, Lin You only got one serving of food. This was the first day that the NPC brought her to her. In the next few days, everyone seemed to have forgotten the existence of Lin You, and never gave her food again.
Lin You has a space, and enough food is stored in it. Self-sufficiency is a problem at present, but Lin You must know who is secretly making a stumbling block for him. What's more, the food in his own space is not unlimited. This is the third day. If they have to walk for ten days and a half months, those things in Lin You's space will naturally not be enough.
The benefits were earned by myself. On the third day, when everyone was eating, Lin You found the fat NPC in the caravan before and asked him in front of him why he didn't give him food, he looked down on it. alone?
Unexpectedly, the fatty NPC's reaction was very real. He was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed a look of astonishment, his eyes wandering back and forth between Lin You and the group of players who were watching while eating.
"This... Your Excellency Lin You, it's not our dereliction of duty. The food that belongs to you, the people from your adventurer team have already collected it for you." The adventurer's food was sent by the adventurer team to collect it at one time.
"What do you mean, our team treated me harshly?" Lin You's voice was somber, making the NPC a little unsure how to answer.
Doesn't it mean that the members of this adventurer team are all life-and-death friendships? Why deduct food from your companions?
"Hmph, I've long felt strange. My captain" Lin You looked at Du Zifang, "I used to treat me like a family member, but now... the reason for such an abnormality makes me have to doubt it."
"Doubt what?" The fat NPC was startled by Lin You's creepy tone and asked subconsciously.
"I wonder if my leader is possessed by evil spirits." Lin You said rudely, "Otherwise, why would you treat me like this?"
In her words, the players all know that Lin You is intentionally framing Du Zifang, but NPCs don't know. Hearing what Lin You said, they all became vigilant. According to the background characters, the relationship between adventurers is very close. It was really strange that Du Zifang treated Lin You like this.
What's more, the background of this world is the existence of fantasy creatures such as demons and witches. After all, there are magicians, right?
Seeing that Du Zifang's character was about to break, Du Zifang quickly stood up. God knew that he did intentionally embarrass Lin You, but Lin You's strength made him very hesitant. Therefore, he was embarrassing Lin You and was still stepping on the line.
On the first day, he really hinted that Lin You should be given one less meal, which was disgusting and disgusting. But he really didn't expect that the people below would dare to give Lin You nothing for three consecutive days. At most, he could think of those people who only gave Lin You one or two meals a day, and deducted some food for Lin You. Never thought that the people below were more courageous than him.
The female priest among the rookie players clenched the staff in her hand. She did not expect Lin You to be so tough. Although she was lucky enough to get a priest's character, her strength was really low. At most, it can only heal a small open wound. After the treatment, she will be in a state of collapse, so although she has entered the organization, she also needs to stabilize her position.
She is not strong enough, how can she stabilize her position? Isn't it just by ostracizing people? She joined those newcomers who wanted to join the organization to exclude Lin You, thinking that Lin You would be afraid of this. Unexpectedly, Lin You wouldn't put such a small trick in his hand at all. Afterwards, she volunteered to take down Lin You's rations, and without estimating Lin You's bottom line, she deducted everything.
At this time, Lin You exposed the truth about how they dealt with her in front of the NPC, and even pointed the finger at Du Zifang. Du Zifang's face is very ugly now, and if the character is broken, the entire dungeon world will be rejected, so he immediately stood up, pretending to be angry and said:
"No, I don't know about this at all. You know, Lin You, there are a few newcomers in the adventurer team recently. In order to train these people, I can't tell the mind to manage other things, maybe..."
"How is that possible?" Lin You was carrying the NPC on his back, but his face was facing Du Zifang. With a smile on Lin You's face, she said calmly, "How long have you managed the adventurer team, and this kind of thing has never happened before, but now such a mistake has happened?"
"I think you are really possessed by evil spirits. Didn't the caravan captain say that? There are many monsters and evil spirits on the road to the City of Elysium, but we haven't encountered anything along the way. Isn't this a problem? ? Maybe there are evil spirits in the team, so we are not attacked."
In order to successfully frame Du Zifang, Lin You had made a lot of preparations in advance. When she spoke, the faces of the NPCs became even more solemn. As for the other old players, the principle they have always pursued is that it is not about them. Now it's not going to help either side at all. Now the situation in the dungeon is not as good as before, and the atmosphere is naturally very bad. For other players' experiences, they don't have the heart or the ability to manage.
In their opinion, Lin You may be a rebel, while Du Zifang is ruthless, and neither side is a good person. It's better to kill each other.
Du Zifang stared at Lin You fiercely, but he was still denying it.
"No, I... Hey, I know that the last time I had a conflict with you caused a rift between you and me, but I really didn't know that your food was deducted."
Lin You was fully prepared and seized the NPC's psychological weakness. She desperately wanted to impose the rhetoric of being possessed by evil ghosts on Du Zifang. Du Zifang was in a panic and could only bite to death. There were personal grievances before, so Lin You framed himself.
"Yes, Lin You had a conflict with the captain before, so, so... she harbors resentment." Lin You's counterattack made the new priest very nervous, and what made her even more helpless was that she found that Lin You almost To drive Du Zifang to a dead end, she had no choice but to show her loyalty, so she could only stand up and speak for Du Zifang.
Her words were not only insignificant, but also ineffective. Lin You said that she was a newcomer, and if she knew something, she would send this newcomer away. Lin You naturally knew about the little tricks that the female priest played, and kept it in his heart. But now is not the time to clean up this little scoundrel. Du Zifang is about to be killed by herself, and she will never stop. As for the female pastor, Lin You remembered her.
Du Zifang is the center of this group of people, and she Lin You will target this center. She wanted to see, what happened to these people? Have the ability and the entire copy world as an enemy. She is so courageous, Lin You smiled and gave them old iron 666.
Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, there was a sudden movement in the forest, causing the caravan people to stand up nervously. The players didn't know what was going on, but seeing the NPC's reaction was so intense, they became nervous.
Lin You put a glove on herself, but secretly touched the dagger around her waist, she instantly gained confidence, and everyone waited for the movement in the forest. But what was surprising was that nothing happened. The captain of the caravan saw this situation and did not dare to delay any more.
Seeing this situation, Lin You jumped on the NPC's carriage and did not go to the player's side. When the npc saw it was her, after thinking about it, she still allowed her to stay in the carriage. The caravan galloped down the road. Lin You sat in the carriage and opened the curtains to peek at the situation on both sides of the road. The sight made her frightened.
What is different from the scenery seen in the carriage on the player's side is that there are wild grasses and wildflowers on both sides of the road, but...
Corpses, all corpses.
Some were turned into bones, and some were still intact, and the corners of these corpses were all smiling. It seems that even when they are dead, these people are very happy before they die. There was a layer of white sweat on Lin You's back, and when she turned around, she saw the caravan on the carriage smiling at Lin You.
"This is..." Lin You couldn't help but ask, but the caravan didn't say anything. Lin You understood what this was supposed to be a secret. But if you don't know why the scenery you see is different, Lin You's heart is always scratching his head, and he can't be at peace.
The rose perfume bottle was held in Lin You's hands, and while the NPC was not paying attention, Lin You sprayed out the perfume. The perfume worked quickly, and after Lin You asked the question again why the scenery was different, the man answered Lin You's question.
"Don't be afraid, we have barrier-breaking stones in our carriage, so you can see those." The man seemed very calm. "These people are all from the City of Bliss. When the corpses on both sides of the road are half human height, The city of bliss has arrived."
Lin You, who thought it was normal these few days, felt like a fool. Where is the normal thing in the dungeon? Even after giving the props at the beginning, he was still so naive to fight with the players.
"You, why are you going to the City of Bliss?" Lin You hesitated and spoke again. There are corpses all around this city, so it's not a good place to see it. How could the caravan drill there?
"Because, dream." When the man said this, he showed a mouthful of yellow teeth. "Money, power, beauty, as long as you are capable enough, you can get everything you want in the city of bliss."
"But those people?" Lin You thought about the corpses he had just seen.
"Those are just losers. Losers have no bones left."
...
After this sentence, Lin You asked again, but this person only gave Lin You a creepy smile and stopped answering. Lin You could only give up, then opened the curtain of the carriage again, and found that the bodies on both sides of the road really piled up on both sides of the road as the carriage advanced.
Barrier-breaking stone, the carriage is equipped with a barrier-breaking stone.
Lin You slowly calmed herself down. She now realizes that this stone is very important. If she can, she must get this stone!
