Infinite Secret House 22 This batch of players are humans...

Xia Shi was not a difficult customer. After learning that Yin Hui was nowhere to be found in the secret house, he left with a look of disappointment on his face.

Xiaoxi was never able to find any relevant information about Xia Shi.

Xie Yunsui thought for a moment and said, "Tiantian, call up the last time Xia Shi came here."

The little bee projected a screen on a white wall: "It's adjusted!"

When Xia Shi entered the secret house for the first time, he obviously didn't know what it was for. He just came in with the others and walked at the back.

He was like a child who had come out of the mountains and came to the city for the first time, carefully exploring the place with his eyes.

After all the players around him disappeared inexplicably, he stood there at a loss, not daring to move.

After realizing that no one would hurt him, he slowly began to explore again.

A robot shopping guide came over and asked him if he wanted to buy anything. He took a moment to react before politely greeting the robot, then shook his head and said he had no money.

When the player says "no money/no life" to express being short of money, the robot will not chase the player to buy things, but instead ask him if he wants to exchange his life for selling copy materials or props.

Xia Shi continued to shake his head.

After the robot determined that he had no desire to trade, it stopped bothering him.

Xia Shi wanted to talk to the robot again, but due to his personality, he thought the robot was busy and did not dare to talk to it.

Just like that, the first time he entered the secret house, Xia Shi didn't trade anything and just followed the player away.

This doesn't seem to be anything special.

Players who come in for the first time are always cautious and confused.

Otherwise, Xie Yunsui would not have let the little bees and robots serve as shopping guides.

Precisely because there is nothing special, everything follows the general trend of players. Apart from the lack of transactions, there is nothing worth noting.

Even Xie Yunsui now couldn't see any more content.

He looks like a player, but he is not a player.

"Shopkeeper, are you unhappy?"

The little bee looked at Xie Yunsui's depressed expression and asked with concern.

Xie Yunsui said calmly, "Today is the first time that the Secret House has failed in a transaction."

"Just this once."

Xie Yunsui's eyes darkened. "No, if it happens once, there will be a second time. Besides, I don't even know Xia Shi's origins."

He went to the study and took out a few jade slips from the bookshelf.

Human memory can cause confusion, but words cannot.

Xie Yunsui became much more cautious after coming to this world, fearing that unknown rules would confuse his memory, so he engraved the memory and experience of every monster he defeated into a jade slip.

The little bee followed and asked: "Owner, what are you looking for?"

"Looking for Xia Shi."

The little bee landed on the desk, waiting obediently for Xie Yunsui to quickly flip through each jade slip.

Due to limited time, Xie Yunsui did not come into contact with enough monsters, and only obtained 132 memories.

Seventeen of these memories were obtained before contact with the player.

These monsters live together in the monster camp. Because their copy games cannot be opened all year round, they can only waste their life time in the monster camp. When their life time is used up, they disappear completely.

The remaining memories are about the monsters that players encountered when they went to the dungeon.

Some are ordinary NPCs, some are bosses, and the latter account for the majority.

Many monsters are not clear about their origins. Perhaps under the influence of certain rules, they have completely forgotten this part of their memory.

But they still remember every confrontation with the players.

Xie Yunsui searched for Xia Shi in these hundreds of thousands of copy games.

Xia Shi's identity is very strange. At the beginning, because his human attributes are very strong, Xie Yunsui did not see through his non-player identity.

Although it was later discovered that because he did not damage the copy and did not harm the interests of the players, Xie Yunsui did not treat him as a crisis that needed to be resolved urgently.

Xie Yunsui’s priority is to help Xiaoxi settle down in the player’s main city before considering other things.

I didn't expect Xia Shi to come to my door so soon.

It caught his attention again.

The little bee clung to the jade slip: "Did you find it?"

The information on the jade slips is searched by mental power, and it cannot see the content.

Xie Yunsui pulled out a jade slip, then took out a piece of memory from it and placed it on the blank wall.

This is a copy game of a certain experimental middle school. A child who looks very similar to Xia Shi is running on the playground.

Judging from the monster's memory, this "Xia Shi" is the background NPC of the copy game.

After a while, Xie Yunsui pulled out another memory from another jade slip.

This is a crossroads copy of a certain cycle. If players don't break the cycle, the cycle will continue throughout the day.

On a deserted street, a boy who looked very similar to Xia Shi was buying things at a convenience store.

The third memory -

Xia Shi grew up a little bit more. After a tiring day of making money in doll clothes, he boarded the last train and became the background NPC of the Midnight Train dungeon game.

The fourth memory is about Xia Shi working part-time in a flower shop in a certain community copy.

The fifth memory is about Xia Shi, who worked as a waiter in a restaurant murder case.

…

Xie Yunsui gathered all these memory fragments together, as if he was observing a person's growth record.

Little Bee even said frankly: "Wow, a child who grew up in a dungeon game."

interesting.

After players come to the destroyed world, even if they have spent decades here, their physical age will still remain at the moment of death in the original world.

Monsters have no concept of "old" and their bodies are always kept in their strongest state.

This was the first time Xie Yunsui saw obvious "growth" in the world of destruction.

-

"Xiao Xia, you're back."

When Xia Shi opened the door with the key, the neighbor next door just went out. She greeted the old neighbor enthusiastically.

Xia Shi turned his head and then looked up at his three-meter-tall neighbor. He smiled and replied calmly, "The company I work for was attacked maliciously. The whole building caught fire. I may have to change jobs again."

"Oh, is there something wrong again? Poor little thing." The neighbor lady said, "Our world is a little dangerous. If you really can't find a job, come and work for me."

Xia Shixiao: "Did you find a job?"

"Oh, it's my old job again. The director of our Supernova Talent Show project contacted me and asked me to get back to work." The neighbor girl shook her sparkly skirt and said happily, "The director said he received an application from a talent show contestant! One application will start the project, but it will probably take some time to gather 101 talent show contestants. I just need to arrange the personnel for each group and the venue and stage in advance."

Xia Shi: "Oh oh."

"It's been a while since we last did it. Many positions are vacant. Xiaoxia, if you really don't have work to do, remember to contact me."

Xia Shi smiled and waved his hand: "Okay."

Go home and close the door.

Xia Shi sat on the sofa tiredly.

Growing up, there were always accidents wherever I was.

He knew that in his world there would often be a group of people called "players", all of whom had different personalities and purposes.

But there is one thing they have in common, they all do their own thing.

Xia Shi's peaceful life was always disturbed by them. He was angry and tried to resist, but the ability gap was too great.

Later he gradually got used to it.

He had finally found a job that allowed him to sit indoors without being exposed to the wind and sun, but those players actually blew up the building. It was so crazy. Xia Shi was desperately trying to save his work data, and the flames almost dragged him into the abyss.

Fortunately, the escape instinct he had developed since childhood drove him out of the building.

Almost died.

Xia Shi blinked and couldn't help sobbing in grievance.

He looked at the photo frame on the table. In the photo, he was snuggling in someone's arms, holding the doll he had won in his hand, smiling happily.

Those were the few days when Xia Shi felt safe.

As long as Yin Hui is around, he never has to worry about encountering any unexpected events.

But he suddenly disappeared without saying a word.

-

Xia Shi serves as a background board in each dungeon, and no monsters or players will notice him.

Not to mention taking the initiative to ask questions like Xia Shi's name and origin.

Xie Yunsui couldn't find any more information about him, so he had to search for more memories.

Xie Yunsui had just finished exploring a dungeon and pushed open the door of the secret house with a bloody smell on his body.

The boss of this dungeon is very powerful and difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, I finally got the monster boss's memory.

Little Bee came forward and said, "Shopkeeper, the puppet from the puppet theater is here."

The one who came was the front desk puppet.

Xie Yunsui changed his clothes before appearing in front of Pinocchio.

The puppet smiled and said, "Thank you, Boss. I'm here to continue ordering that puppet prop. Thanks to you, our puppet theater is doing very well, and people are opening dungeons every day."

After Lan Xi and his team finished the clearing, Gu Che reported the copy information to Bai Xiaolou.

Because the two item rewards after completing the mission were very useful, Baixiaolou quickly organized the people in the building to go and get them.

Of course, VIP customers with good relationships will also receive push notifications of new copy content.

The number of players that a copy can accommodate at one time is fixed. No parallel copies will be created to simultaneously complete the game just because there are many players applying. The later players can only enter the copy again after the previous batch of games is finished.

There are too many people queuing for the dungeon, and it is very likely that you will not be able to enter until the end, and then be transferred to a random dungeon.

Therefore, confident players will enter the dungeon in advance and generally will not delay the weekly dungeon time to the last minute.

The Puppet Theater became extremely popular.

It’s so popular that the last batch of props ordered are almost sold out.

Xie Yunsui: "How many players have successfully cleared the level?"

Pinocchio replied, "They all seem pretty clever, but with a guaranteed elimination rate, we've earned a lot of life time."

The large amount of life deducted from players when they fail a mission is deducted to the copy game.

Xie Yunsui: "No wonder it's consumed so quickly. How many props do you need this time?"

"A lot."

Pinocchio first paid off the loan for the previous batch of props before buying new ones.

Xie Yunsui was in a good mood when he suddenly received a large number of lives.

There were quite a lot of props, and the little wooden puppet stuffed them into the sack he brought with him.

Xie Yunsui looked at it and suddenly thought: "The game I went to, there were only nine players. Can you tell that there was one who was not a player?"

The puppet shook his head: "Don't they all look like human players?"

Xie Yunsui smiled and said, "I'm also a humanoid. Do you think I look like a player?"

"You don't look like a player at all. You're fierce and aggressive, just like those big monsters. Players are weak and frail."

Xie Yunsui: "..."

Xie Yunsui changed the topic and asked, "Anyone who is human is a player?"

Pinocchio pretended to be tired and twisted his joints to relax. "Yes, this group of players are humans."

Xie Yunsui was startled.

This batch?
