【Mission failed: death】

This mission looks very ordinary, even a little simple, and strangely there is only one of them.

The whistling sound of the sea breeze came to her ears, and Sang Mian realized at this moment that she was standing on the deck of the ship. Her heart skipped a beat. The place was so small that there was no place to hide. What if the ghost started a killing spree?

The next second she saw her fifth sister and fourth brother, and her heart was instantly relieved. Her weirdness value was 92 points, and her fourth brother and fifth sister's weirdness values ​​were also above 80 points. What was there to be afraid of?

"Come in quickly! It's windy outside!" The sea breeze blew up the fifth sister's short hair. She held down the baseball cap on her head with one hand and waved at Sang Mian with the other hand.

The cruise ship was not big, it was a small cruise ship with only a cabin and an outside deck. Sang Mian took one last look at the rolling black sea water and then trotted into the cabin.

She had watched a popular science video on her phone. If the seawater is light blue, it means the sea is shallow. Part of the light that shines into the sea is absorbed by the seawater, and the other part is refracted back to the sea surface. If the seawater is dark, it means that the seawater absorbs all the light and this area is deep sea.

The sea area where they are located is absolutely extremely dangerous. Just looking at it gives people a sense of fear that it can swallow up everything in the world.

Sang Mian pulled his black coat closer. The weather was bad today and it was quite cold in the cabin.

"Sister Sang! I thought you were gone, turns out you were outside." Xia Qing was in good spirits and much more active than others.

Sang Mian glanced at the crowd and was shocked when she saw two of them. She looked at them in shock and said, "Zhou Jianyi, Zhou Jiayi! Why are you here?"

Zhou Jiayi smiled bitterly: "I don't know, the system forced us to come here, it seems that God destined us to go through the dungeon together."

"Tsk tsk... President Sang, are you happy to see us?" Zhou Jian had his hands in his pockets and a pair of black headphones hanging around his neck.

Sang Mian took two steps forward, wanting to return to his companions, but the fifth sister said coldly, "I advise you not to go over there."

Sang Mian was confused: "Huh?"

The fifth sister glanced at everyone cautiously and said slowly: "For copies above the evil spirit level, you can't trust anyone, not even yourself."

"One of us is weird... Before we can confirm the other person's identity, we should keep a certain distance. This will be better for everyone." The fifth sister sat on a soft chair in the corner of the cabin. The baseball cap made her jawline look even sharper.

Upon hearing this, Bai Tang silently moved away from Xia Qingyuan.

Xia Qing was sad. She cried, "Sister Tangtang, you don't think I'm weird, do you? Take a good look at me. I'm Xiaoqing!"

"No, I'm afraid I'm Weird." Bai Tang put his sunglasses on the left chest pocket of his shirt and said seriously, "Fifth sister said that I can't even trust myself. What if I'm Weird who was swapped?"

What she said was cruel but it was the reality. Xia Qing could only shrink her neck in fear.

The fourth brother counted the number of people. There were eight players in total, seven of whom were familiar with each other. Only a young man in a black turtleneck sweater was standing alone at the innermost part of the cabin.

"Shangguan Fan, you're here too." The fourth brother vaguely remembered the name of this player, "I didn't expect that you could be included in this dungeon."

Shangguan Fan smiled and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect that either."

The fourth brother was sitting on a soft chair not far from the fifth sister, holding a thermos cup used by middle-aged people.

There were only two long white soft chairs in the cabin, with a round glass table in the middle and the cabin's control console in the front. The space inside was just enough for eight people.

Sang Mian probably understood what was going on. She looked at everyone with a sincere gaze and said sharply, "Um... I have a question. Who among you can drive a boat?"

Yes, the main quest is to return home. Now we have the ship and the players, but most importantly, we don’t have the captain! How can we return home without a captain?

The cabin was as quiet as a chicken, and no one expected that the problem that stumped everyone was so real. It was not something weird but a matter of boat driving skills. It was really fate.

The fifth sister hesitated for two minutes and said, "Why don't I give it a try?"

Sang Mian: "Can you sail a boat?"

Fifth sister: "I learned it for a while when I was young. My uncle used to be a captain, but I am not very skilled. I don't know if I can operate a ship."

After saying that, she stood up and walked to the front driving seat. After taking a closer look, the fifth sister recalled the boat driving skills she had learned. She first turned the throttle handle to the middle position and the gear handle to neutral. Then she turned on the circuit switch and pressed the button on the operating table. After the engine sounded, she turned the steering wheel to the right and pushed the accelerator with one hand. After feeling the hull moving, the fifth sister breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s operable.”

The fourth brother was surprised: "Xiaowu, you can also drive a cruise ship, that's amazing."

Zhou Jianyi glanced at him calmly: "How strange, I heard that you and her have known each other for a long time, don't you know?"

The fourth brother's hand trembled as he held the thermos cup. He had known Xiaowu for at least ten years and had met him in the real world, but he really didn't know that Xiaowu could drive a yacht. The strange game could change people's memories. Was his memory tampered with? Or was he not himself...

Everyone cast suspicious eyes on the fourth brother.

"I never told my fourth brother that I could drive a yacht." Xiaowu controlled the steering wheel of the cruise ship and said without turning his head: "I learned from my uncle for a few months when I was a teenager. After my uncle passed away, I never told anyone about it."

Zhou Jianyi leaned back in the soft chair: "I'm sorry for bringing up your sad story."

Xiao Wu snorted coldly without saying anything. She focused all her attention on the operating table. There was a route on the display screen of the console. It would take exactly two hours to reach the destination, which meant that this copy would take at most two hours.

"Hiss... It's dangerous." Xiao Wu murmured in a low voice, "The time is so short."

After switching the cruise ship to autopilot mode, Xiaowu returned to his seat.

"Everyone, I have bad news for you."

Xia Qing: "Hmm?"

Xiao Wu: "This route takes a total of two hours."

Xia Qing didn't understand. She glanced at her watch. It was six o'clock in the afternoon. "Isn't this good news? The time is short."

Xiao Wu raised his eyes: "Do you think it's good news?"

Xia Qing tilted his head: "Isn't it?"

Sang Mian thought for a moment, and suddenly her scalp went numb. She thought of a terrible reason, "Could it be that the monster wants to kill all of us within two hours? So there is only two hours?"

Xiao Wu nodded cruelly: "Yes, if we can't find the weirdness, we will all die on the ship."

Xia Qing was frightened. She had been in the dungeon six times before, and this was the first time she intuitively felt the terror from the dungeon. It was clearly a rhythm that wanted the player to die quickly.

"Sister Sang...what should I do?" Xia Qing was about to cry. She was so scared when she thought that one of the players around her was a weird one and could kill her at any time. "I'm really not a weird one. Can I sit next to you?"

Sang Mian pursed her lips and shook her head in embarrassment. Although she believed Xiaoqing, she couldn't put Xiaoqing and her own life on the edge of a knife.

Xiao Wu stared at Xia Qing without blinking: "Is Sang Mian definitely a player? Maybe you will be the first one to die?"

Xia Qing became even more frightened, and a feeling of helplessness spread all over his body.

"Although it may be useless, everyone should still introduce themselves." Bai Tang wanted to reduce Xia Qing's fear as much as possible. Perhaps if the atmosphere became lively, she would not be so scared.

Xiao Wu narrowed her eyes and propped herself up on the soft chair with one hand, "Okay, I'll go first." She smiled and looked at everyone, "I'm the president of the Twilight Cross. I'm sure everyone has heard of me. Oh, not anymore, because the players in our guild have all jumped to the No Coriander Guild."

I feel a little embarrassed to talk about Sang Mian. It was a good guild and everyone left because of her.

"Don't be angry, listen to my explanation...I didn't mean it."

Xiao Wu was surprised and said, "I'm not angry. The guild was originally created to increase the survival rate of players. The guild leader is just an empty title. What's there to be angry about? I'm happy and relaxed."

Seeing Xiaowu's indifferent expression, Sang Mian breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't make enemies, it would be troublesome if they met enemies in the copy.

The fourth brother was next. He said, "I used to be the president of the Golden Dawn. I have known Xiaowu for many years. My code name is 032425. Because there is a four in it, Xiaowu calls me the fourth brother."

There were no flaws, and he even revealed his code name. Everyone's attention shifted to Zhou Jiayi.

Zhou Jiayi: "I have been in the Weird Game for three years. I used to be a member of the Eternal Night Cult. Later, I switched to the No Coriander Guild. I have been through four dungeons with President Sang."

Zhou Jianyi fiddled with the headphones around his neck and said to himself, "When did I buy this thing? Why can't I remember it?"

He looked up, "Is it my turn? I'm his younger brother. I also entered the weird game three years ago. There's not much to say. The rest is the same as my brother." After saying that, he fiddled with the headphones around his neck again.

Sang Mian took a look at his headphones. It was the first time she saw him wearing headphones, and they matched his outfit quite well.

"Hello everyone, I'm the president of the Guild that doesn't eat coriander. I entered the game a year ago. I believe that everyone has heard of my name to some extent, or has heard of my strange way of clearing dungeons." Sang Mian said modestly: "Let me tell you something you don't know. Because I'm an undertaker, I often encounter familiar ghosts in the game."

Xiao Wu groaned, "No wonder everyone said your way of clearing the dungeon can't be copied. So that's how it is."

Xia Qing felt much better now. She wiped away the tears from her eyes and said, "I met Sister Sang in my first dungeon. After the dungeon, Sister Sang founded the No Coriander Guild. I was lucky to become the vice president of the guild. I was even luckier that Sister Sang became a good friend. Otherwise, I would have died in the dungeon long ago."

"Don't say that." Sang Mian wanted to touch her head, but her current condition didn't allow it. She praised loudly, "Xiao Qing is amazing! You can always help me. I am lucky to have you."

The tears that Xia Qing had just held back burst out again.

Bai Tang spoke up in time: "I met Mianmian in the hospital dungeon. After the dungeon ended, I jumped to the No Coriander Guild. I was lucky to meet Mianmian and Xiaoqing. If possible, I would like to be friends with you for life."

Her introduction was simple and quick. After listening to it, Xia Qing stopped crying immediately and her face was filled with emotion.

The last one is Shangguan Fan.

Speaking of which, he gave people a very strange feeling. Ever since the fourth brother said his name, Sang Mian suddenly had this person's name and appearance in his mind, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't think of where he had seen him before.

Not only Sang Mian, other people also had this idea.

Shangguan Fan nodded to everyone, "I am a member of the Eternal Night Cult, and I have been in the game for four years."
