Chapter 142 [(*^▽^*)]
There are a hundred players!
Lin Leyou: "There are quite a lot."
One hundred players equals ten thousand points, which is not bad.
Lin Leyou, "Do you have any other tasks that will earn you points?"
Xue Rui: "Yes, kill the monsters here."
Lin Leyou sighed, "So there really is such a mission. Then... you're not planning to ambush me now?"
Xue Rui shook his head, "I only feel at ease when Brother Lin is around."
Otherwise, when he faced the fog-shrouded amusement park instance, with players who didn't trust each other, he always felt out of place and excluded by everything.
Lin Leyou touched his hair. Although it looked like a skeleton, Xue Rui could feel the warmth of his hand.
Lin Leyou had no idea what Xue Rui was thinking, but he originally thought that if there weren't many players, he didn't need to rush and could just accompany Xue Rui to complete the mission and clear the game.
But now it seems that there are a hundred players, and even if some die, the number is still a lot.
Anyway... since I'm already here, I might as well go and make some profits; I won't lose anything.
Lin Leyou suddenly asked, "If you kill players, will you get a reward?"
Xue Rui nodded, "Sure, this game instance seems to support players killing each other. I can get 100 points for killing a player."
You only have points, no money, but 100 points is pretty good; it's equivalent to a million in real-world currency.
Of course, the real-world money redeemed with points is all cash, which isn't very convenient for buying expensive items.
Besides, anyone who has participated in a dungeon knows the importance of points; no one can guarantee 100% that they will be able to clear the next dungeon.
Therefore, almost all players will save enough points for themselves to avoid not having enough points when they fail to clear the next dungeon.
Furthermore, if someone has reached the point of using points to exchange for real-world money, they must have been a very poor person to begin with.
This suddenly brings a huge sum of cash with a dubious origin, which will inevitably arouse suspicion, especially if the police are watching...
When the police ask where the money came from, if you stammer and refuse to say anything, won't it be obvious that something is wrong?
Therefore, the smart thing to do is not to take too much cash at once, or like yourself, to obtain some valuable items in the dungeon that you can take with you.
Lin Leyou: "Isn't it great? One player represents 100 points."
Xue Rui: "It is indeed very good, but I am alone, while they are all in teams. Although their hearts are not united, at least there are enough people."
"The largest team had more than a dozen members, while the smallest team still had four or five members."
Lin Leyou nodded, "I see. Then let's find players first, starting with teams with fewer players."
"Once we find them, I'll go over and break them apart, then we'll split up and kill them, okay?"
Xue Rui had no sympathy for the other players. Since they had come to this endless world, they were all prepared to kill others or be killed.
For Xue Rui, this dungeon was very easy, because with Lin Leyou by his side to protect him, it would be difficult for him not to have an easy time.
However... if these players can really unite to deal with them, then this side won't be able to gain any advantage.
But both Lin Leyou and Xue Rui knew very well that it would be harder than climbing to heaven for these people to fight side by side without any reservations!
Lin Leyou first found a map nearby. After carefully looking at the map of this amusement park, he discovered that there were many attractions and facilities to enjoy, such as roller coasters, carousels, Ferris wheels, bumper cars, water parks, and so on.
Lin Leyou, "Where to go first?"
If you're looking for players, it's best to listen to Xue Rui. I don't know if Xue Rui knows where these players are.
If they don't know, they have to start looking from the nearest place.
Xue Rui said, "They all think that the carousel and Ferris wheel are the easiest, so many people go to those two places first. We can avoid those two places for now."
You should definitely avoid crowded places.
Lin Leyou didn't object, "I'll listen to you."
Since we're avoiding those two places, let's check out the water park first. Everything there looks dangerous, so there shouldn't be many people there. Plus, I bet the ghosts and monsters are all in the water.
Even if we can't find any players, it's okay. We can play a few games with Xue Rui over there first.
Xue Rui walked slowly, but felt somewhat uneasy.
Lin Leyou, "What's wrong?"
Xue Rui asked, "Brother Lin, is helping me like this considered cheating? It won't do you any harm, will it?"
Lin Leyou blinked. "Cheating? This doesn't count as cheating."
Xue Rui, "How do I determine that?"
"If I just give you five stamps and let you pass the game like that, that would be cheating. But if I help you through the mission, that's not against the rules."
Xue Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief. "So, as long as you follow the mission requirements, it doesn't count?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, but we can't go too far. In any case, you'll definitely have to complete the mission on your own. Let's go to the water park, I can play with you there."
Xue Rui, "Play?"
Lin Leyou said, "Isn't that right? With me here, you can just treat this as an ordinary amusement park."
Although he can't attack NPCs, he can at least stop them, right? He can tell them that this is the prey he has his eye on.
Lin Leyou was a little worried, so he asked the system.
Can other NPCs in this instance attack me?
Note: All NPCs in this instance cannot attack each other.
He was relieved to receive this answer.
The water park was quite far away, and it would take them a long time to walk there, so Lin Leyou took him to find a sightseeing bus and planned to take it there.
Just before reaching the sightseeing bus, when there were only 100 meters left, his props discovered the situation.
About 100 meters ahead, where the sightseeing bus stops, several red figures could be seen in and out of sight.
There are players over there!
He could see it, but Xue Rui couldn't. After all, they were in the fog, and the visibility was only ten meters. He grabbed Xue Rui's arm and said, "Wait."
Xue Rui stopped and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Lin Leyou pointed in a direction, "About 100 meters ahead over there is where the sightseeing bus is located, and there are six players there!"
He just counted the number of red figures and there were actually six players. That's quite a lot. Will he be able to disperse them?
After they stopped and quieted down, some voices gradually came from the other side. In fact, it would be more accurate to say that they were arguing rather than talking.
"How exactly do I start this thing? Does anyone know how?"
"Could that be a problem? The most important thing is to find the key, right?"
"Where's the key?"
"You're asking me?! Who am I supposed to ask?!"
The group argued back and forth, and none of them wanted to look for the key elsewhere; frankly, they were all afraid.
Lin Leyou suddenly realized that he didn't have a key either, so he couldn't take the sightseeing bus, right?
As they were getting into their thoughts, the sound from the other end suddenly disappeared, as if a pause button had been pressed.
What happened?
In his line of sight, the six players were still standing in the same spot, but they seemed to be stunned, all looking in the same direction, completely motionless.
What are you looking at? What happened?
Before long, Lin Leyou heard an old and ethereal voice say, "Where are you going? I'll take you there."
Then he added, "It's free, hehe!"
The tone sounded as if to say, "Where do you want to die? I'll send you there for free."
The six players snapped out of their daze as soon as the other finished speaking, and without lingering for a second, they turned and ran, screaming piercingly as they went.
Even when escaping, they run like headless flies, running as long as there are no obstacles in front of them, completely disregarding whether there are other players around them.
Seeing this, Lin Leyou thought it was a good opportunity and quickly pulled Xue Rui towards the direction of the lone players. "There are two players ahead. We'll take one of them each. Don't crash, Xiao Rui."
Xue Rui matched Lin Leyou's pace, saying, "Don't worry, I'm much better now than when I first met Brother Lin."
Lin Leyou didn't say much, and pulled him to keep running forward.
Perhaps it was because it was running and then realized that there was no movement, nothing was chasing it, and it had even gotten separated from the others that it stopped in fear and kept looking around.
They could hear the player's heavy breathing even from a short distance away; he was clearly terrified.
Lin Leyou pointed ahead, "You'll see one if you walk a few steps forward. I'm going to find the other one. Don't go too far after you've dealt with it. I'll come find you."
Xue Rui: "Okay."
Xue Rui followed the direction Lin Leyou pointed and walked forward. Sure enough, after a few steps, he saw a panicked man standing there, his face pale with fright.
He kept circling around, looking at his surroundings, as if afraid that something might suddenly jump out of the mist and attack him.
The moment Xue Rui appeared, he screamed and tried to run away.
"Why are you running? I'm a human being!"
The other person paused for a moment before turning around to look at him. Only after confirming that Xue Rui was indeed a player like himself did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"This...this brother, you scared me to death!"
Xue Rui, "What's going on? Is this your first time participating in a game?"
After catching his breath, the other person said, "No, but this is my second time. I managed to pass the first time by luck, but I think this time it's a bit risky."
Xue Rui: "Really? I also think this dungeon is a bit too difficult. This is only your second time participating. You shouldn't have been assigned to such a difficult dungeon. What's going on?"
The other person's eyes darted around, "I...I don't know either..."
Xue Rui suddenly said, "You didn't actually enter the game instance on your own, and you were forced into it after more than 30 days, did you?"
How did you know?
