Chapter 006

After this incident, the waiting room fell silent and all the trainees were afraid to speak.

Soon, several practice rooms became vacant, and Gu Jie went over with his number plate to line up.

They were going to practice room number 23.

Shi Jiu had just walked to the door of the practice room when the door was opened by someone inside.

The trainees inside came out, looking not in good shape, injured. Two or three of them came out supporting each other, clearly having failed the dungeon.

The players' wound recovery ability in the game is very strong. Although they look so uncomfortable and miserable now, in fact, these wounds on their bodies will almost heal after a good night's sleep, and they can still be full of energy tomorrow.

"The game copy in this practice room is quite difficult, so you better be careful." A boy who came out looked at them and kindly reminded them.

"Okay, thank you." Shi Jiu thanked him.

The difficulty of passing the practice room should be random. A high difficulty level also has some benefits, such as it can better train their team cohesion, and the rewards for passing the levels will be greater.

After the five people entered the practice room, the door automatically closed. In the middle of the practice room was a small door, a curved metal arch. Beautiful patterns were carved into the door, and above it lay an illusory barrier. They needed to pass through this barrier to enter the game instance.

"Are you ready?" Gu Jie turned around and looked at them.

"I'm ready."

"Come on, let's go in."

【Welcome to the Deep Forest Maze dungeon.】

The white light faded, and Shi Jiu opened his eyes. They had already entered a dungeon. This time, it was a real-life dungeon, and they appeared in a forest. It was a dark forest, with tall, sky-high trees and enormous leaves.

Black vines are entangled everywhere in the forest. There are no green plants. Most plants are black, and some plants emit a dark red light.

Their feet were wet, and they were stepping on a patch of dark red grass. In the grass, they could see some tiny red flying insects. The flying insects were very small, and they emitted a dark red light.

"This little red bug is so small, I thought it was dust." Jin Meng squatted down curiously and reached out to touch the flying red dots.

As soon as Jin Meng finished speaking, her hand was grabbed by Shi Jiu, "Don't touch it."

Jin Meng reacted immediately, withdrew her hand, looked at Shi Jiu, and replied obediently: "Okay."

"I didn't expect to be matched into a forest dungeon this time." Gu Jie was also a little surprised. Dungeons with forest backgrounds were rare in the game. After playing the game so many times, this was the first time Gu Jie had been matched into a forest dungeon.

I have to say, although this forest is a bit creepy, if you look closely, the plants are still very beautiful, like a forest in a dark fairy tale.

Tong Le bent down and pulled out a piece of grass from the ground. "Look."

That grass was not ordinary grass. There were some faint black patterns on the tip of the grass. Tong Le directly pulled out a piece of grass, and blood was slowly flowing out from the broken part of the grass.

Jin Meng was shocked: "Why, why is it bleeding?"

"Can you hear me?" Shi Jiu suddenly asked.

"What?" Tong Le asked.

"It's crying."

Everyone was motionless and suddenly quiet.

Sure enough, they all heard a little crying, like the voice of a child. Hearing such a strange crying in this environment, Jin Meng felt a chill on his back.

What they didn't know at this time was that there were many people watching them in front of the screen through the live camera.

Each practice room had its own livestream, and the audience for the show's livestreams was split, with the most popular rooms being located in Class A. Class A's trainees were ranked higher, and the dungeons they were assigned were more difficult. Most viewers preferred watching the big guns battle it out; it was more exciting.

[Bullet screen]: Another team of F-level trainees jumped into the fire pit!

[Bullet screen]: A new trainee is here so soon?

[Bullet comment]: The previous team was eliminated too quickly, in less than two hours.

[Bullet screen]: I feel like I've discovered a treasure. This collaborative copy looks really fun.

[Bullet screen]: Hey, the NPC in this copy is also very good!

[All players must survive in the forest for three days, or find an exit.]

Another sound rang out in the game, and the five people looked at each other.

"This time's clearance mission doesn't seem that difficult." Gu Jie looked around and spoke.

Survival game copies are the most common game tasks in the game, and usually appear in novice copies. Gu Jie played a lot of such game copies when he was at a low level. Generally speaking, this type of copy is not difficult.

Gu Jie didn't know that what he said had been broadcast live through the camera, and the audience's speed in posting comments had become faster.

【Bullet screen】: Hahahaha, this copy is not easy!!

【Bullet screen】: Congratulations, you encountered a hell-level dungeon right from the start!!

[Bullet comment]: This is the most difficult copy I have ever seen the F class trainees do.

[Bullet screen]: It’s a must, there are trainees from Class A here!

[Bullet screen]: I guess this is another wave of people seeking death.

"It's better not to be careless." Tong Le said.

"By the way, this is our first time working together to clear a dungeon. Can we introduce our weapons to each other?" Gu Jie said.

After all, they are a team, and the player's initial weapon almost represents the player's attributes. Knowing each other's initial weapons will also facilitate cooperation between them.

"Can."

After seeing that everyone agreed, Gu Jie stretched out his hand. A faint light appeared on his hand, and the next second, a wooden board appeared in front of him. It was not very big and looked like a washboard.

Jin Meng couldn't help laughing. Gu Jie also reached out and scratched the back of his head. He said a little embarrassedly: "This is my weapon. Although it looks like a washboard... maybe it really is a washboard."

"Hahahaha." Jin Meng laughed out loud at his joke.

Shi Jiu also smiled. She looked closely at the washboard in Gu Jie's hand. She thought it was probably because the initial level was too low, so the weapon hadn't yet taken shape. This was more like a defensive weapon. When the level increased, it might develop into a shield.

Tong Le and Jin Chen also showed their weapons. Tong Le's weapon was a huge iron hammer. The hammer looked crudely made and was not worthy of the exquisite Tong Le. Tong Le just glanced at it indifferently with a slight look of disgust.

Jin Chen, who was standing next to her, suddenly had a hoe in his hand, the kind used by farmers. I don't know why, but seeing Jin Chen holding this thing in his hand, there was a strange sense of disobedience.

Under everyone's gaze, the iron head of the hoe and the wooden stick seemed to be loose, and with a thud, the iron head fell directly to the ground. Jin Chen glanced at it, then inserted the wooden stick again with an expressionless face.

"I probably won't be able to use it." Jin Chen said.

"Why?" Tong Le asked.

"ugly."

“........”

[barrage]: Haha ...

[Bullet screen]: This thing is really not worthy of a handsome guy.

"I probably won't be able to use it." Tong Le silently looked at the sledgehammer placed at his feet.

"Do you think it's ugly too?" Jin Meng asked curiously.

"no."

"I can't lift it."

“.......”

“Hahahaha, that’s too difficult.”

I guess everyone's weapons were too weird. When Jin Meng showed her weapon, she was not embarrassed like the first time. A pacifier appeared quietly in her hand.

Well...she probably won't use it.

She had no idea how to use the pacifier.

Several people quietly demonstrated their initial weapons, and the air stagnated for a few seconds.

Well, none of them work.

It's very quiet here, but everyone in the barrage is laughing like crazy.

【Bullet screen】: Hahahahahaha, is this team here to make people laugh? ?

[Bullet screen]: None of them can be used hahahahahahahahahahahaha.

[Bullet screen]: Just look at the configuration, it’s over, I bet they won’t survive for two hours!

[Bullet screen]: But this team is so good-looking, hahahaha. I, a beauty lover, am going to vote for the pretty ladies!

After this little episode, everyone quietly put away their initial weapons.

This forest was indeed very strange. After they walked for a distance, they miraculously returned to the original place.

Gu Jie moved a large leaf aside and said, "We seem to be trapped in a vicious circle."

Tong Le: “Yes.”

Jin Chen: "We have encountered this kind of maze copy before. We need to find a node to break through, otherwise we will be trapped here forever."

"Wait, did you hear any sound?" Jin Meng stood behind Shi Jiu and said in a low voice.

"Be careful, an NPC might appear soon."

Since this was a survival game instance, it was impossible for them to stay here for three days. There would always be some strange NPCs that would come to torment them.

"Go that way." Tong Le pointed in a direction.

After Tong Le finished speaking, they heard several loud noises.

It was the sound of something approaching. It looked quite large, and it was shaking the ground.

Several people looked back together. Near the forest's edge, a figure as large as a small mountain approached. He was broad and chubby, with fluffy black and white fur. From a distance, he looked a bit like a ferocious...panda.

“That’s it!”

"Not good, why is it this guy?"

Jin Meng glanced sideways at Gu Jie who was speaking and asked, "Have you met him before?"

"Well, I've encountered this NPC before when playing games," Gu Jie said coldly. "Don't underestimate him because he looks stupid. He's actually quite smart and likes to torture all kinds of players. He even once grabbed a male player and tossed him around like a toy."

Jin Meng: “…”

"His defensive power is also very strong. Perhaps his only drawback is that he is too big and not very agile."

The trees and grass here were enormous, and even the giant pandas that came by were giant and furry. Jin Meng felt like she had entered a land of giants.

"Come quickly, let's go first." Jin Chen said in a deep voice.

Although they continued to move forward and could not get out of this vicious circle, it was better than waiting to die here.

"Okay." Gu Jie and Tong Le responded together.

This is the only way now. I can only try my best to avoid the giant panda and then find a node to get out of the vicious circle.

The giant panda was getting closer and closer, and the audience outside the screen became nervous.

[Bullet comment]: I hope this team can survive longer. The previous team was chased by the giant panda for an hour and a half before they got out of the circle.

[Bullet screen]: Hahaha, what's the point of going out? There are more powerful people waiting for them outside.

[Bullet screen]: I think this team is not very good, they are all too weak.
