Chapter 98 Hell Community

George and his group were stealthily sticking to the door, listening to the noise outside.

Lin Xuan looked at the little mouse on his palm and felt that he was not very reliable: "Are we hiding in this room all the time? Isn't that too passive?"

George rolled his eyes rudely.

"If you want to go out, then go out. Let me tell you first, although Bai Dandan looks stupid, his ability is already amazing in the entire 18th level of hell."

Most of the administrators of the Hell Community were coaxed by the Lord of Hell from other games through various means. Oh no, they were hired.

The combination of the administrator's own abilities and the characteristics of that layer has formed the current punishment area of ​​hell.

In other words, the illusion control skill on the 14th level is something George has inherently possessed.

"I don't know about the other guys, but the area it was in at the time was said to be one of the dungeons with the lowest player clearance rate. The Lord of Hell spent a lot of effort to dig out the motherboard of Baidandan from that cyberpunk dungeon."

Speaking of this, George got angry. This guy actually didn't beat that display screen. It was a shame that it could compete with the Infinite Game System. How could it be so useless?

Lin Xuan didn't expect that Little Mouse had such a high opinion of his colleague.

However, even when the data was invaded, he was able to open a safe house for them to hide. This administrator on the 14th floor is really amazing.

George saw his NPC background vibrate twice again. He had already filed a complaint with the main system, but the friction and intrusion between copies had been classified as normal copy expansion by the main system in the early years.

In short, as long as the player can still play the game normally, other main systems don't matter.

This is also the reason why Boss Cai dared to be fearless. He directly planned a new game on the display screen, and then modified the rules a little bit to benefit himself.

George actually felt that hiding all the time was not a good idea, but how to avoid being disturbed by hallucinations was a big problem...

I don’t know if it was intentional, but the safe house opened by Bai Dandan was not far from the room where Jin Daya and the others imprisoned the administrator.

This safe house is different from other infirmaries. Leaving a door open would create the risk of being discovered, so the one in front of them is more like a wall than a door.

It’s so thick that I can’t hear what’s being said outside.

Chu Wen suddenly said, "My ability may be able to help."

Ah Xiang glanced at her sideways: "But now you can't even use your hands."

Chu Wen shook her head, and then let Ah Xiang hold her hand and lean against the wall: "It's just that my hand has no feeling and can't be used. The ability can still be activated."

【Special tool for night shift nurses making ward rounds】

[If you are not a bedside companion, please do not stay in the ward at night. Patients with special diseases should pay attention to their sleeping posture at night. There are also people who take medicine or get injections. The night shift is very busy. What if you don’t have a flashlight? 】

"I have determined that the small area outside the door is a ward. You can use this to shine light on the wall."

A small black flashlight suddenly appeared under Chu Wen's feet. Ah Xiang supported her, picked up the thing and passed it to others.

In the end, it was Tang Xiaoxiao who took the things. She was standing in the right position, and the others immediately made way for her.

The circular beam of light from the flashlight hit the wall, creating a perspective effect. Even more bizarre was that the corridor outside, which should have been brightly lit, seemed to be dimmed. Every detail was clearly visible where the flashlight was shining, and even sound could be heard.

The people on the other side probably couldn't notice what was happening here, after all, Jin Daya was asking about the medical robot copy without restraint.

"We have received the signal from Boss Cai. How long will it take to devour the other fan-shaped game areas?"

The leading egg-shaped medical robot no longer had the pitiful expression on its face as before, and its voice was stiff and its tone was cold.

"Other black wires are being dispatched together, and the intrusion is expected to be completed in 12 hours."

Not bad, Jin Daya was very satisfied.

"How is the illusion system going? There are still a few hostile forces in this game, and they might also want to get a piece of the pie. I don't want to be robbed of my achievements just when the authority transfer is just around the corner."

The white robot's screen was full of various codes, and the results were quickly calculated.

"The illusion system will be fully deployed immediately. It can spread from the 14th floor to the 13th and 15th floors, and then gradually affect the entire Hell Turntable. The players on the turntable will fall into an illusion calculated in advance, which will not affect the plan."

Jin Daya was really satisfied this time. He was worthy of being the administrator that Boss Cai had personally dealt with. He was really useful.

If the Hell Community is taken over by Boss Cai, all 18 floors will definitely be replaced. Moreover, that guy is a maverick. Even when he manages convenience stores, he personally goes to so many of them as the store manager.

By then, the entire 18th floor might be managed by the clone of the display screen himself, so this big white egg...

Jin Daya suddenly had the idea of ​​poaching people. This guy and the bandaged ghost he left behind were both rare geniuses.

"I heard that you came from a Cyberpunk dungeon. Why didn't you apply for a job in the Infinite System subsystem? Instead, you came to a place like the Hell Community to be a boring administrator."

The egg-shaped robot did not answer him, leaving only a simple smiley face symbol on its face.

＾-＾

George hissed suddenly.

Lin Xuan looked at him in confusion, and the little mouse said with a strange expression: "Every time Baidan shows this smiley face symbol, it means it is angry. Normally, I won't provoke it at this time, but its crying expression is normal. Is this guy really controlled now? Why do I feel weird?"

Jin Daya outside the door continued to ask: "Okay, it's okay if you don't want to answer. When things here are over, there won't be many administrators left alive. Then you can follow me back to my copy. I won't treat you unfairly."

There was still the ＾-＾ character on Bai Dandan's face. Jin Daya thought it agreed, so he happily continued to look for the administrators who were lying on the ground and sleeping.

I was in a hurry to do my business before, so I took out the doors and keys from them, but ghosts of this level might have props on them. Even if they have nothing, their existence itself is a tonic.

Jin Daya tied up those strange-looking ghosts one by one and hung them on the wall. He felt as if he had a few more gold rings.

"Wait until the black wire has sorted out the doors. Don't waste it then. Eat these ghosts too."

Of course, those who cannot be turned against must become food. Even for a ghost of his level, eating incense is much more cost-effective than eating ghosts, but it is not a bad idea to fill the gaps between teeth and have a snack.

George felt a chill run down his spine.

“These bastards.”

The administrators who fell to the ground were all loyal to the Lord of Hell. This time, George was not sure whether Bai Dandan was acting or was really being instigated. Obviously, this was not the key at the moment.

"They plan to use the 14th floor as a base point to spread the illusion out. It seems they are planning to let the players kill each other."

After George finished speaking, Lin Xuan became confused: "Let the players kill each other? Shouldn't the administrator abide by the rules after invading the game?"

The little mouse pointed at his wrist and said, "Remember the two values ​​we tested when we entered hell? The morality value and the sin value naturally divide the players into different camps. It is not against the rules to use the value difference to make the two camps kill each other. What's more, there are so many guys on the wanted list."

Before Lin Xuan could wrap his mind around what was going on, Tang Xiaoxiao, who was holding the cat, suddenly said, "Are people with two high stats special in hell?"

George nodded. "People whose two values ​​add up to a high number are very likely to become the next successor to Hell. However, if the illusion of the 14th layer unfolds, such people will be very dangerous. They may not commit suicide after falling into the illusion, but they are very likely to hurt the people around them, and the lethality may be particularly great."

As the administrator, the little mouse knows the ins and outs of this:

"If the illusion of the 14th floor is fully unfolded, then the next step for these invaders should be to make the players kill each other."

Sure enough, Jin Daya was already talking to the robot.

"Boss Cai said that we should eliminate players with higher stats in advance. Are all the people you trapped previously dead?"

Several strings of symbols flashed across Dabaidan's face.

"Some humans are still resisting, and the punishment measures of hell are slow to take effect on them. This is the setting of hell, and I have no way to change it."

Jin Daya also knew this. The Lord of Hell set up some crappy moral values, which would reduce the lethality of some execution props to players. He also gave preferential treatment to these guys in the game, but was very ruthless to ghosts.

"Since we can't kill them in the game, let the players kill each other. I remember there was a wanted order. Let's see if we can make it work. After the illusion is spread, find a way to make the players gang up on those with higher stats to prevent future troubles."

Across the wall, the expressions of the few people who were still eavesdropping changed instantly. George hadn't noticed the atmosphere in the room yet, and continued to talk to himself in Lin Xuan's palm: "This guy is quite smart. Speaking of which, the Lord of Hell seems to have set a limit. At least those with a double value of 95 or above are qualified to see him. It seems that this is to train successors.

And this kind of guy seems to have a certain impact on Hell, but the Hell community has been open for so long and there is no one who meets the requirements, a person who is extremely evil or extremely good. This requirement is too strict. Is Jin Daya really going to spend so many players to kill these guys? Uh, why are you looking at me like that?"

Tang Xiaoxiao was originally holding the kitten in her arms with a flashlight in her hand, but now she has put the cat down and handed the flashlight to Chu Wen.

Lin Xuan vaguely remembered that the boss's two values ​​seemed to be particularly high, but looking at Tang Xiaoxiao's ugly face, how high were these two values? Could it be that they really exceeded 95?

"How long will it take for the illusion you just mentioned to unfold?"

George spread his hands and nodded at the external scene with his chin: "How should I know? It depends on the efficiency of the white egg. According to my understanding of its ability, if it is fully released, it will take about half an hour to control the entire 14th floor."

Tang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and said, "I have to go find Sister Qiao Song and at least tell her about the safe house."

In an instant, everyone looked at her.

Lin Xuan was the first to speak: "Are you crazy?"

Anyone in this room can risk being deceived by hallucinations and leave the safe house, except Tang Xiaoxiao.

The hallucinations on the 14th level are targeted. Players who have not committed suicide will be directly trapped in a special environment and unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.

People who have committed suicide are dead when they go out.

Defensive items can prevent others from attacking you, but how can a person stop himself from killing himself?

A gentle voice sounded, it was Aunt Huo who spoke: "I'll go. My ability is quite special. To some extent, the cats and I have independent consciousnesses. If I fall into an illusion, they will wake me up."

Cats with different fur colors and patterns appeared in the room. At a glance, there were at least a dozen or twenty of them.

The cats all sat there obediently, just looking at the people in the room quietly, and then meowed softly a few times.

Lin Xuan scratched his hair, a little anxious: "Why don't I go too? My strong control skills may be able to wake up the controlled person. No, what if I fall into hallucination, and the lottery ticket will be useless to me..."

Tang Xiaoxiao was silent: "You don't have to take such a big risk."

According to what Bai Dandan said before, this is a real safe house. As long as you stay inside and don't go out, and wait for things to be resolved, you will eventually be able to pass it.

Aunt Huo looked into her eyes and asked softly, "Xiaoxiao, why did you take such a big risk to find Qiao Song? You have only been through two or three copies together, right?"

Most of the players who met by chance gathered together for the sake of interests, developed guilds, and then completed tasks again and again. Going home is their ultimate goal, and surviving is the first thing every player needs to consider at the moment.

In fact, Tang Xiaoxiao didn’t want to go home that much. What she liked was staying with Sister Qiao Song, Xiao Ni and the others, and meeting all kinds of friends along the way.

Those copies on the Infinite Highway were just difficult problems for her. She only needed to write the questions carefully and then solve them. If she failed, then she failed, and her only score in life would be a little lower.

She herself didn't care, but she hoped that Sister Qiao Song could be alive.

This world is just a journey and an adventure for Tang Xiaoxiao. Qiao Song is one of the most important adventure partners. Although Tang Xiaoxiao lied to her a lot when they first met, the courage needed to survive for both Tang Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ni does not necessarily come from themselves, but more often comes from others.

"I want to help her."

People who commit suicide choose to escape because they are cowardly, but if they are forced into hallucinations, Sister Qiao Song also needs someone to wake her up. A courageous person like her should not be surrounded by enemies in the hallucinations on the 14th floor.

This is not fair to her.

Aunt Huo patted her head and said, "Xiaoxiao, you should be more confident in Qiao Song, and also in yourself. The shadows you learned from others will be forgotten one day. Qiao Song can't always be with you. You should become whatever you want to be."

Tang Xiaoxiao slowly raised her head.

Aunt Huo: "Take the cow cat with you. If you fall into illusion, the sheriff will wake you up."

A cow cat that looked like Black Cat Sheriff was placed in Tang Xiaoxiao's arms.

Lin Xuan was mad: "Have you decided already?"

When they fell from the sky before, they could see that there were at least dozens or even hundreds of people in the safe zone at the center of the Hell Turntable. It was indeed very dangerous to be besieged by so many players, but was it really worth it?

Lin Xuan remembered that when he was hung on a tree branch in the Iron Tree Hell and no one could get help from him, the boss saved him by making a deal.

Although he did spend money, many players on this road treated the people from the Black Iron Guild as suckers. He knew that he was not smart and could be easily ripped off, but Boss Joe did not rip him off and always treated him as his younger brother.

Lin Xuan gritted his teeth, picked up a cat from the ground and held it in his arms.

Aunt Huo laughed as she watched: "Put Xiaoju down. His ability is related to smell. I'll get another little guy to accompany you."

In the end, Lin Xuan was holding a tabby cat in his arms, Tang Xiaoxiao was holding a cow cat in her arms, and Chu Wen and A Xiang were both holding sparrow cats in their arms.

George stamped his feet anxiously: "You have a safe house but you still want to die. I really don't understand you."

Although he said so, George held back his tears and pulled out a few of the mouse's whiskers, cursing, saying that a mouse only has one tail, and so many of you are going to die, it's a good thing that you have so many whiskers.

"If you encounter something you really can't solve, just pull my beard and I'll pull you back, understand?"

Then George was licked on the head by a long-haired calico cat, which scared him so much that he jumped three feet high.

"Flower is saying thank you to you. He said George is a very good mouse."

After Aunt Huo finished translating, the little mouse's face turned red, and he urged everyone to hurry up: "In addition to the hallucinations, you must also be careful of those black wires. Although they may prioritize hunting administrators on other floors, it was caused by that damn display screen after all. Don't get caught."

After a long series of instructions, George found a small door at the back of the safe house, leading to the other side of the corridor.

"Did Bai Dandan calculate this a long time ago? Otherwise, why would there be so many doors in one house?"

After mumbling, he opened the door, watched these humans whom he could not understand, and left the safe house where he could have easily won.

On the other side of the corridor, several streams of data flashed across the face of the egg-shaped robot. When it opened its mouth to say something, a smiley face suddenly appeared on the panel. Jin Daya looked back at the robot: "What's wrong?"

Bai Dandan's expression did not change.

"The illusion system will be deployed immediately, and Boss Cai's signal access will be completed."

Jin Daya looked at the black wires gradually emerging from the floor with a satisfied expression: "Very good."

"Next we just have to wait for the players to help us kill our opponents."

Invisible ripples spread outward with this room as the center. The entire 14th floor treatment room was as silent as a grave. Most of the rooms had been controlled by silkworm pupae and scratch cards. When this layer of illusion spread, the first ones to be affected were the newly joined players.

Qiao Song felt the movement of the black line in his hand. Driven by intuition, he suddenly frowned and grabbed the crow that had just appeared and started cawing.

"Quiet!"

She pinched the crow's mouth with one hand, and with the black bird, she went straight into the wall next to her. At the same time, she did not forget to grab the doctor in the domineering president's novel and the doll on the doctor's back.

After she dodged, Qiao Song saw that the door had exploded directly, and a huge amount of black wires gushed out of the room like liquid.

Three humanoid creatures, along with a crow, clung to the corner of the door as if avoiding a flood, stepping on an abandoned medical machine that Qiao Song had quickly pulled over.

A large number of lines emerged from the door, as if they had some kind of living attributes, and several of them spread out to explore the surrounding environment.

Several of the black lines turned their heads and looked towards Qiao Song, with their backs arched high, as if ready to attack.

But soon, they saw the thing hanging from Qiao Song's wrist. The black line shook its thread end and they raised the alarm. They judged Qiao Song to be one of their own and swam away quickly.

Qiao Song suddenly understood. Jin Daya could obviously contact the administrator on the 14th floor, so why did he leave a black line for himself?

The lie was that he wanted her to do the work, but the truth was that he wanted to protect a subordinate who had just performed well.

After all, all the ghosts that Jin Daya brought out are gone, and now she is the only traitor left.

These managers have really dirty hearts. They have many twists and turns in their minds. After giving the things, they still deceive their subordinates and are unwilling to tell them what will happen next.

Qiao Song thought about it again and felt something was wrong. She had seen it on the other floors before. A black wire could close a door. What were so many wires suddenly doing?

Why do we feel like we are about to launch a full-scale attack, and on the 14th floor? What's so special about this floor?

Qiao Song tried to get as close to the side as possible. Perhaps the doctors in the Overlord's novels were non-human, so it would be okay even if they touched the line. Under Qiao Song's command, he lifted the doll that was controlled by him high up.

On the contrary, the crow in Qiao Song's hand suddenly felt hot all over, like an overloaded computer. Its head trembled, and it stuttered and could hardly speak human language.

"Heir, screening - restart - authority transfer - ga."

As soon as the crow opened its mouth, the black lines swimming in the corridor raised their heads suspiciously. Qiao Song immediately stuffed the big black bird into his pocket, not forgetting to pinch its mouth with his hand. The black lines quickly shifted their attention away.

Her pockets were getting hotter and hotter. She was afraid that something might happen to the crows, and also that the black wires would attack the doll on the doctor's back. She immediately prepared to find a room to stay in. After all, these black wires were wandering in the corridor and it seemed that they would not actively open the doors and enter the treatment rooms.

When Qiao Song randomly found a room to go in, he found that the room was actually empty, with no one in it.

After closing the door, Qiao Song took a look around and found that this was a room that was decorated exactly the same as before, with a circle of chairs in the middle and a banner hanging on the wall with an old wall clock on it.

The brass round pendulum swung from side to side, and at the exact moment the hour struck, a clanging sound suddenly rang out.

Qiao Song felt his heart suddenly beat violently, and the domineering president's family doctor suddenly knelt down, and the baby on his back also slipped to the ground.

Her eyes blurred, and she heard a strange voice beside her ears:

——"Did your child sneak out to play again?"

"It's not about going out to play, it's about going out to work part-time."

——"She didn't go to such a good university and didn't use such a high degree, but instead ran out to do some messy job, and you didn't do anything about her."

Qiao Song found himself standing outside the door of a home he had not returned to for a long time. Relatives who had come to pay New Year's greetings were eating melon seeds and chatting in the living room, all of them criticizing Qiao Song for not doing his job properly.

She heard her mother answering her relatives in a familiar yet strange tone: "The child is grown up and cannot be controlled. Isn't this something that can be done?"

——"Your child is not bad, she just needs to find a solid job. Doesn't that so-and-so's daughter work for a big company? You can get her a job there."

Then came the mother's echo.

Qiao Song's mind was confused for a moment, and he quickly looked at his hands. A box appeared at his feet with several rotating icons on it.

Soon she saw ghost shadows scattered all over her living room, and several guys covered in human skin were looking at her darkly.

——"You don't have a proper job every day, you're just doing this and that, what are you going to do with the rest of your life like this!"

——"Knowing a little bit of everything is the same as knowing nothing. It's better to learn a skill. What's the point of fiddling with these things if you can't make money?"

——"Your relatives all look down on you, so how can your parents hold their heads up high? How can you live with dignity?"

——"The game world is full of dangers. Don't you want to go back? Just gently strangle yourself with this rope, and the pain will soon disappear."

The asphalt-like substance flowing out of Qiao Song's room had almost spread to her feet. She took a step back with some disgust.

He seemed to be very aware that he was in a hallucination.

"You may have made a mistake on one point,"

She looked at the relatives in the room whose faces and names she could not remember, and finally set her sights on her mother.

"The same conversation actually happened during a Chinese New Year. What did my mother do then?" Qiao Song shook the toolbox, took out an electric saw, hesitated, searched carefully, and finally took out a security baton with satisfaction.

"She very politely asked the relatives who pointed fingers at me to leave and refused to allow them to come to our house again in the future."

The face of his mother in the room became increasingly blurred, like oil paint falling down. Although he could not remember what the face looked like specifically, Qiao Song still remembered what his mother said that day.

——"As long as the child likes it, that's her own life."

The black baton was irritated into a hideous long snake and the whip tore through the air. Qiao Song was really angry this time.

Players who entered the Hell Community during this period felt that they were extremely unlucky.

Especially the group that entered the Hell Roulette. They were about to complete the copy, but were inexplicably stranded in another hell game. The damn task system has changed its mode again.

[As long as you kill any player on the red wanted list, you can immediately clear the Hell Community. ]

Then, all those fan-shaped game areas that were flickering all melted into one ball, and vaguely black lines could be seen running through them like thorns.

"I know there are wanted orders in the damn Hell Community, but what the hell is a red wanted order? Can this thing be issued to players?!"

Although they said so, the cursing players quickly chose to enter a new game. Their safe time was running out, and soon, the entire safe zone would be completely closed.

What’s the difference between this and forcing someone to do something?

"There are five red warrants in total. No, no, I know this brother and sister. They seem to be very powerful in the prop business. I think I have seen these two people, the one wearing a magic suit and the one raising snakes, in the safe zone before. They look ferocious. No, how about this one? This female player looks unfamiliar. It's better for her to act alone. She should be easier to deal with."

Similar conversations spread among players in the safe zone.

There were only a few players who had just come out of the crucifixion hell and had strange expressions on their faces.

The artist, who had seen the true appearance of the bandaged ghost, quietly packed up the wanted poster and decided to do nothing.

"This crappy game doesn't even have a complaint system. It keeps changing tasks. Sooner or later, this crappy game will go bankrupt."

The other players didn't care about this. A large number of people received the five wanted warrants and swarmed into the game area below. Among them, a large number of players who entered the 14th floor suffered from hallucinations as soon as they landed.

Regardless of whether they are willing to accept the wanted order or not, players who have been hallucinated have already begun to fight the monsters in their minds.

But many people found that the monster with a whip was particularly scary.

She has two demon tentacles on her head, and when she opens her eyes, thick magma flows out at an extremely fast speed with amazing attack power.

"What the hell is this? What the hell is that string tied behind her back? Hey, why are you running?"

"MD, you might as well go do a wanted order mission. What the hell is on this 14th floor?!"

When the players were fighting foolishly, Jin Daya was quite happy. However, during the fight, the floor of the 14th floor suddenly shook. Jin Daya looked back at the door with some displeasure: "What happened?"

Don't let things go wrong at critical moments.

Some garbled characters appeared on the white robot's face, as if it had sensed the situation on the 14th floor.

"The hallucinations are indiscriminately attacking all players. Some players may have been stimulated and are destroying the surrounding environment."

Jin Daya thought that this was understandable. Anyway, these players were trapped in the illusion. As long as they used skills, they would be hurt more seriously by the illusion. In this case, it would be better if they could get rid of those annoying human players at the same time.

A jump percentage number appeared on the egg-shaped robot's screen. Jin Daya was only concerned about the portal, so when he saw this scene, he asked what it was.

"It was destroyed by her...@*&" Suddenly he got stuck, all the garbled characters on the screen paused, and soon a smiley face symbol appeared.

"It is the probability that you will soon gain control of the other half of the door. The signal from Boss Cai has been connected. Even if we don't go to other game areas now, we can still interfere with them through the wires. Just wait a moment and we will succeed soon."
