Chapter 50 X-level copy 3

Although she was pulled in suddenly, Ye Xiaoxuan vaguely remembered that before she entered this copy, two people came in with her, but she didn't know where they are now?

If this is the case, then this copy can be said to be extremely hopeless. Judging from the current situation, a certain number of people must be reached in order to pass this copy. If the number of people is insufficient and no new psychics come in, the copy will automatically pull people in.

The nature of a game like Drop the Handkerchief almost determines that no matter how you play it, there will always be a loser in the end. The constant celebrations and games are destined to mean that one person will die every night. If left unchecked, in the end, this copy will be enough to swallow up all the mutants in the border area.

From Ye Xiaohua’s description, we can see how the third victim, as an analyst with a non-combat profession, could survive under such circumstances?

So that person ran away without caring about anything and was subsequently ruthlessly killed by the villagers. It was after that that an atmosphere similar to that of a "funeral house" was formed in this copy.

Ye Xiaohua started using her supernatural powers from then on until Ye Xiaoxuan came here.

After the conversation, Ye Xiaoxuan turned her attention back to the ongoing event.

Everyone knows that if you disobey the villagers, bloodshed will occur, so:

"Children, do you want another dance?"

…

“Can you guys clap?”

…

"Hello, traveler from afar! Come and play a game with us!"

…

Here we go again!

As soon as the old man's words came out, everyone felt a deep despair in their hearts.

The raging wind and snow made the place look like a fairy tale, but all the participants were pale and the scene was extremely bad.

"Please, please, let me go." One participant couldn't bear the psychological pressure and immediately knelt down and cried, but the villagers seemed to be frozen, just numbly repeating the same words:

"Hello, traveler from afar! Come and play a game with us!"

…

"Hello, traveler from afar! Come and play a game with us!"

The repeated words made Ye Xiaoxuan upset. What should she do in this situation? Are there any clues? She couldn't help but wonder, but the villagers just kept repeating what they said before.

Ye Xiaocao was also sharing his experience. Since this is a plot gate, there should be a big trend or main line here.

If you find it, you should be able to complete the dungeon.

Almost at the same time, she understood what he meant. Although there was a certain risk, she still mustered up the courage to speak: "Thank you for your kindness, enthusiastic villagers, but we don't want to stay in this village anymore. Our relatives far away are still waiting for us to return home. If possible, can you point us in the direction and tell us how to leave here?"

The psychics gathered around the fire were all shocked by Ye Xiaoxuan's words, and looked cautiously at the villagers next to them.

But the reaction was not as negative as they had imagined. The villagers, who had numb expressions and kept repeating the previous words just now, seemed to suddenly come alive.

Instead of getting angry, they gladly offered a solution:

"Leave? Dear guest, do you want to leave the village?"

A child spoke up, and then countless villagers followed:

"I have no idea"

"I don't know the way either."

"But I heard that there seems to be an exit from here hidden in a cave deep in the snowy mountains over the hill."

"Are you crazy? There is a mysterious power there. No one can come back alive from there."

"Isn't there a Grandpa Doji who once came back alive from there?"

"But Grandpa Doji has always been weird. Will he help?"

…

"Grandpa Doji? The cave?"

Ye Xiaoxuan accurately grasped the key points of these words.

The others were shocked to see Ye Xiaoxuan casually interrupting the villagers' conversation, but there was no need to care at this time. Through the test just now, Ye Xiaoxuan had already understood that these villagers were not human beings at all. They were more like some AI that acted according to a program.

It is very likely that all the deaths so far were intended to force the raiders to participate in this festival, which is the so-called novice guidance. However, for some unknown reason, the dungeon guidance was not smooth enough, resulting in the current situation.

"What do you mean by this? Can you tell us?"

NPCs in the game usually don't say things that are irrelevant to the main storyline for no reason, so Ye Xiaoxuan asked the villagers without hesitation, hoping to obtain some information.

I also learned the general background of the story from their words. This is an enclosed snowy mountain. The only way out is through the blue ice cave on the top of the mountain. But that is the territory of the "Devourer" and contains His curse. Anyone who disturbs it will be tortured by endless hunger until it eats itself.

As for Doji, he is the only survivor who has come down from the top of the mountain in more than 30 years. Thirty years ago, he went to the ice cave with five friends, but he was the only one who came back. After coming back, he never talked about his experience in there. However, he became particularly devout in God since then. He stayed away from the village and prayed at the foot of the mountain.

"Then may I ask, where is this old man Doji now?"

"Just keep walking in the direction the snow and wind is blowing, and you will find him."

The villagers said this and pointed in the same direction at the same time, and Ye Xiaoxuan expressed her gratitude to them.

"Thanks for your advice." He turned to the others and said, "Let's go over there and take a look."

"Then what should we do about the celebration?" At this time, a psychic asked subconsciously.

But the villagers just waved their hands impatiently and said, "The celebration is over."

"It's... over." The young man couldn't believe it.

"It's over, let's go now."

Sometimes the truth is so absurd, just as shown above, the villagers' celebration was only to pass on the information needed for the strategy, but during this time, because the group was afraid of them and did not dare to approach them, they missed the simplest part of the copy and lost two lives.

“Haha ...

The young man who had been begging for mercy before stood up tremblingly, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

Following the direction of the wind and snow, Gou'er played a very important role in this process. Yes, it also came in, but it was not considered a participant. After all, every participant had a white rune on his arm, but it did not. It seemed that it, like Ye Xiaocao, was regarded as a part of her by the copy.

They kept walking like this, and along the way, the good news was that no new members joined, and the bad news was that no old members were found.

According to the previous reasoning, there is a certain number of people in this copy. I counted the people in the team now, 1234, including myself, there are only 4 people.

Ye Xiaoxuan was counting people while thinking, by the way, the first advance team has not been completely found yet. Ye Xiaohua and the others had been searching in the village all day but didn't see them.

There are 12 people in the advance team and 6 people in the follow-up investigation team on the list, a total of 18 people. Later, 3 more people came. From this, it can be inferred that this copy should accommodate 12 people. 9 people died, so at least 6 people in the advance team are confirmed to be alive.

Thinking of the nine people who died in the accident, Ye Xiaoxuan's eyes couldn't help but darken. At the same time, she led the survivors towards the hill that the villagers had told her about.
