Chapter 71:
The key content of the first prompt is the background of the story contained in this passage, and the final incomplete password.
"S" asked the other party to come to him and provided the password. It's just that the handwriting is vague, Tang Xiao guessed that the complete password should be spliced together by the prompts of multiple players.
As for the second prompt, the only valid information in this passage is to reveal the identity of the interlocutor from which "S" tried to get help from the previous prompt.
—Chu Chen.
Chou Brown was lucky, the two prompts he got were exactly a pair of dialogue fragments, which was equivalent to having a third prompt invisibly. Tang Xiao read the key reminder of customs clearance, that is, Chu Chen's words again, and frowned slightly.
It can be defined by the system as a "clearance prompt", which has an extraordinary effect. In other words, aside from this cold and irritating word, the identity of "Chu Chen" is extremely important, even important enough to determine whether the player can pass the level.
Thinking of this, her expression was somewhat indescribably complicated.
Qiu Brown is still researching the second clue, his big eyes are full of big doubts, "Who is Chu Chen? Zombies?"
This is the real question in his heart: when he was thrown into this world at first, he thought he was fighting zombies to survive, but later found that he not only had to survive, but also fought wits and bravery with players from different camps. Now I find that not only have to fight wits and courage with the players, but also solve puzzles with the system?
He was doubting life when he saw Tang Xiao also took out a note and handed it directly to him: "Reciprocity, this is my reminder."
On the note there are only three words: Battle Royale.
***
Guardian Day was supposed to be one of the few relaxed festivals at the base. But a series of accidents starting in the morning have cast a haze on the day.
Whether it is the appearance of a giant mutant nearby, or the sacrifice of an academician and dozens of soldiers, it is a shocking news.
At the same time, the mood of the players in the base was ups and downs, and the atmosphere was complicated. When the fleeing troops sent the list of the dead to the base, there was no movement at the resurrection point. They thought that the captain was fighting with the leader of the standings, and they were worried, but in a blink of an eye, they received a notification that the two teamed up to kill the giant mutant.
It is a good thing to start the supply, but the news of the fall of the resurrection point announced at the same time is very bad news for the players!
Underground, in a very private room, a group of men and women with different expressions and silence.
With Bai Qi around, they didn't dare to show too much, but some people couldn't help it, a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears took the lead and said: "The game is too much, the top five When one resurrection site falls, we will not be notified, only five of them will tell us, and it is too late to save them now."
"Save?" On the sofa opposite the middle-aged man, the girl with curly green hair permed sneered, "When we encountered a large number of zombies at the resurrection point before, you ran faster than anyone else. Hurry up. I hope you can keep the resurrection point, I might as well queue up and commit suicide in the mouth of the zombies."
The middle-aged man turned purple and shouted angrily: "Shut up, stinky girls, there is no place for you to interrupt when a man is talking."
The green-haired girl sneered: "Relying on being a player to make a fortune, and bullying the little girl in the garrison, and finally see the zombie pants before they can lift their legs and run away, except you Two taels of meat, how dare you say that you are a human? If you don’t believe it, go for a walk in the corpse group, the zombies will think your meat smells!”
The atmosphere in the room was not right.
All the players of the northern camp in the base, no one does not know the festival between these two. It's nothing more than that the man didn't experience the beatings of the game when he first entered the game. Because of the player's "privilege", he did a lot of **** things to the aborigines here.
And the green-haired woman was someone who didn't like him. She had a fight with him. The man was sent back to life and became the first batch of "dead" in the game. The player... And just at this moment, the system belatedly notified:
All northern players have only two chances to revive.
Southern players can revive unlimited times, while northern players can only revive twice, there is no harm without comparison. Regardless of whether there are differences in other aspects, this alone is enough to make many players in the north hate the players in the south. The middle-aged man was naturally one of them, but there was another person he resented, the green-haired woman.
The two became feuding, and later they were forced to survive into the Qiu Brown team, and then entered the base. The middle-aged man is a very vengeful person. Although he doesn't dare to do it, he always wants to instigate others to ambush the green-haired girl with him in private, and his eyes are full of lewdness. I went to the outskirts of the base to do chores, and only came back today.
It was impossible for the two to make a move under the watchful eyes of everyone, but it was inevitable that they would fight each other. In the end, the middle-aged man couldn't stand it any longer, and he sighed angrily: "Crazy, because of a few game NPCs and I can't get along, pretending to be like some chaste heroine, sooner or later, you will cry and beg Laozi."
"Alright, alright, stop arguing, now all of our lives are at stake. You can solve your own affairs in private, don't waste everyone's time."
"That's right, I think what Brother Wang said makes sense. Everyone is a player who is familiar with the plot. The world's human civilization is doomed because of the plot, and even the army can't resist zombies, how can we resist? Now that it has reached this period, I will say it plainly. My original plan was to find a safe place. When the game plot comes to the end, and human civilization is completely destroyed, the copy will be sent out naturally. I believe many people like me Do you think the same thing?"
"I thought so too."
"I think about it, but the game doesn't give us a chance at all. Damn, when will the zombies kill the rest of these people, why haven't the human beings been destroyed? When they die, I will die first!"
The one who said the last sentence was a thin monkey-like young man. Learn to hide your condescending arrogance and say it without thinking.
But Rao was so, he also noticed the momentary silence in the room after he blurted out.
He looked stiff, but he didn't realize what the problem was, he still stuck his neck and said, "Did I say something wrong?"
Bai Qi, who had been silent for a while, suddenly asked, "What do you think our camp is?"
No one answered.
Bai Qi was not angry either, and called out a name: "Zheng Wu, what do you think?"
It didn't respond at all. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, only to see this thin man who had always claimed to be the third-in-command said sternly, "North, North camp?"
…
The green-haired woman rolled her eyes: "Idiot, what he asked was: Do we belong to the zombie camp or the player camp."
There was an uproar in the house. Some people were confused, some people suddenly realized, and some people looked away lightly, pretending that the old **** was there to avoid being asked.
As far as the players are concerned, they are inexplicably divided into the southern camp and the northern camp, and they "kill" each other to get points. But for the main body of the game, there are only two camps: the human camp and the zombie camp.
In the original plot, the human civilization in this world was destroyed without resistance. In addition, the ultimate task given by the system does not allow the player to save mankind, but just "find the lost lover". As a result, many players preconceived that, as the game says, they are just "players" who came in by accident to experience. As long as the timeline follows the original plot of the game and reaches human extinction, they will naturally leave this world.
After all, this game not only allows players to revive, but also cheats players for their money. If they really die here, who will the game make money from?
But the more time passed, the more they realized that things didn't seem so simple. Although the system always releases some nasty tasks that let players kill each other, it seems that they don't care about the survival of human civilization in this world. But it also gives a huge trap and limitation: the rules of resurrection points.
die."
At the same time, Tang Xiao and Qiu Brown were sitting on the roof of the abandoned shopping mall, analyzing the system prompts she got, and said these words.
Dead, you can spend money to resurrect. As long as the resurrection point is still there, they will never really die. Naturally, this world can be regarded as a money-burning game. At most, it is too real and scary.
But what if the chance of resurrection is lost?
Who can guarantee that the death here is not a real, complete death?
What awaits them is success or despair?
an illusion. The real trap is hidden behind these seemingly useless tasks, revealing its fangs little by little.
Bai Qi's fingers lightly tapped her knees, "Imagine, when all resurrection points are invalid, all players lose the chance of resurrection. All human beings die, or are transformed into zombies, this earth We're the only players left, and we haven't completed the final mission... what happens?"
Facing the icy wind on the roof, Tang Xiao raised the note in his hand, "I think, this is the meaning of the reminder I got."
"Battle Royale."
