Chapter 377 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou curled his lips. It was obvious that the documents on the table didn't need to be processed; they were just there for fun. The final condition for players to successfully complete the game was to kill him, the BOSS.
Even if there are other additional missions, side quests, or hidden missions related to the company's business, so what? As long as they don't die, these players can't successfully complete the game; they will still die!
He simply didn't believe that the points deducted for failing to complete the game as a B-level player could be made up for by completing these side quests and hidden missions.
According to his estimate, players can earn tens of thousands of points by clearing a B-level difficulty dungeon, and lose several thousand points for failing the mission. Hopefully, they can come up with a good way to deal with him.
He also had a computer on his desk, which allowed him to view all the members of the company, from top to bottom. He looked through them one by one, and he carefully reviewed all of the more than two hundred employees in the company without spending too much time.
We still haven't seen Xue Rui, or anyone who looks like Xue Rui. Either all the players have completely changed their appearances this time, or Xue Rui hasn't come to this instance.
Okay, let's see first. If Xue Rui is really there, he should send me a message. Wait a minute! Right, he can try contacting Xue Rui by phone.
He took out his phone and checked it. Xue Rui hadn't sent him any messages. If he were entering a dungeon, he would definitely have sent him a message, just like before.
However, he didn't receive a message from Xue Rui on his phone this time, so it's highly likely that Xue Rui didn't come. It's still the middle of the night in the real world, and Xue Rui is probably sleeping.
Since that's the case, then I can go on a killing spree without any worries!
During the day, the entire company was very peaceful. Everyone was doing their job and working. Lin Leyou didn't wander around. If a boss were to wander around down there...
He might be assassinated by the players below, but even if he can't go down to see, he can watch from the top floor.
Behind the BOSS's office on the top floor is a monitoring room with dozens of screens of various sizes, displaying footage of the company's internal operations.
He assumed the surveillance cameras were installed in places visible to all employees, but he soon discovered that they were actually hidden after releasing the mechanical spider!
He only discovered this by chance. When the mechanical spider passed by a certain place, it happened to be captured by a surveillance camera as a blurry shadow. He immediately used the mechanical spider's line of sight to look, but he couldn't see the surveillance camera in that direction at all.
Isn't this a bit unfriendly to players? No, we can't think of it that way. If it's really unfriendly to players, then it's just increasing the difficulty for them.
Perhaps some players have the items to detect these surveillance cameras. Ha! Even if these surveillance cameras are useless, I still have the mechanical spider, so this definitely won't be detected.
There are only ten days in total. Lin Leyou doesn't think nothing will happen during the day. These players won't waste the daytime, since it takes up half of the time.
But after watching these dozens of surveillance videos for several hours, he didn't find anyone doing anything suspicious; everyone was working diligently.
Occasionally, some employees might be seen chatting or playing games on their phones in a corner, but these are harmless and don't seem to cause any problems.
Lin Leyou suddenly thought of a question, but he could only find out that evening. He wasn't in a hurry now. After all, it was ten days. The players needed to adapt in the first few days, and he, the BOSS, also needed to adapt.
Because after using the identity card this time, he did not gain any memories of the identity BOSS, and he had to figure everything out on his own.
Sure enough, the increased difficulty of the dungeons wasn't just for the players; it also affected the residents who accepted the quests.
As residents and NPCs, they may seem to have many privileges, but in many situations, residents are no different from players. Once their points become negative, they will die completely.
In the real world, players will die even if their score is not negative. Therefore, in the infinite world, outside of dungeons, being killed will also result in real death.
In other words... if he hadn't dodged outside the amusement park last time, he would have really been killed by Jiang Changdong. Lin Leyou hadn't been sure about this before, but he only recently realized it.
"Just you wait, I'll definitely kill you when I get the chance!"
The first day passed peacefully without any unexpected events, from six in the morning until six in the evening.
get off work!
Many employees stood up from their workstations, packed their things, and prepared to leave. Many of them actually left the company gate and walked into the black fog outside, disappearing completely.
These are probably just background NPCs that appear during the day to fill out the quota; they're not important.
Aside from the NPCs who actually left, there are about a hundred left in the company. That means the player is among these hundred people, and among these hundred people are their own demon minions.
Lin Leyou sensed something and found that he couldn't sense any of his underlings. Should he go out? He could see the secretary's true form when she came in earlier.
In other words, to distinguish one's own minions, one needs to look directly at them. Only when one sees them can one distinguish them. This means that players cannot appear in front of one's own eyes. Once a player sees a player, he can immediately identify him. However, if a player wants to kill a BOSS, he must come to his own eyes.
Lin Leyou checked the time; it was already past 6:10. He got up to go out, but received a reminder just as he was about to open the door.
"Hint: You cannot leave the top floor for the first five days before the final boss."
Upon hearing this notification, Lin Leyou was completely stunned. Huh? There's such a rule?
I have to stay here for five days? And I can only leave after five days?
After the initial shock, Lin Leyou had no other choice but to do as the system instructed. These five days were supposed to be the time for players to familiarize themselves with the dungeon and find a way to kill him.
If they still can't figure it out after five days, then the difficulty of this dungeon will suddenly increase, and the BOSS will be able to move freely, which will put the players in danger.
For the first five days, only the henchmen on the front lines could kill players, while he himself... if no players came, there was no one to kill him.
No wonder the BOSS has such a powerful skill; he can teleport to any place in this building in two hours. Wouldn't that mean I could kill at least one player in two hours?
Even if the hidden surveillance cameras are discovered and dismantled by the players, I still have ten mechanical spiders, and these players won't be able to escape my surveillance range.
He returned to his office and sat down on the sofa, feeling dejected. As for the documents on his desk? He didn't touch any of them. Although his secretary would bring things up, she never inquired whether he had dealt with them.
He figured these documents were just for show, and he felt perfectly justified in continuing to enjoy his rest.
Meanwhile, the employees who stayed behind to work overtime were having their lunch break. They gathered in twos and threes, eating and chatting on the floor where the restaurant was located.
One group of five huddled together, seemingly discussing something. One of them asked, "Boss, what's next? Should we go find the boss?"
"Let's not alert them yet. Let's observe and see what happens. We can look for the items needed for the side quests, and if we can find any hidden quests, even if we fail to complete the game in the end, we might be able to offset some of the points lost, so we won't suffer heavy losses."
"Boss, are you really that pessimistic about whether we can clear this dungeon?"
"It's hard to say. I hope you can be a little more cautious. Dungeons of B difficulty are not that simple." He looked at one of the women, "Especially you. Don't think that just because you cleared that dungeon before, B difficulty is a piece of cake. Be careful not to make a mistake."
The woman playfully stuck out her tongue. "I understand, little boss!"
Then she added, "Speaking of which, is the food here really edible?"
"Where else do you think we can eat besides here? We're staying here for ten days, don't forget."
Another person said, "From now on, you can only enter the dungeon once a day at most. This is a huge disaster for some players who love to grind dungeons."
After they finished speaking, they all looked at their leader, but the leader had no expression. "Why are you looking at me? Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, we can use the rest time to discuss the next plan."
"Our main mission is nothing special; it's simply to kill the top-floor boss within ten days."
After defeating the final boss, you can clear the level and you will receive 50,000 points. If you fail, you will lose 10,000 points.
The side quest is to kill the five most powerful henchmen around the BOSS. If the quest is successful, the reward is 5,000 points, which means that you get 1,000 points on average for each henchman killed.
If they complete the side quests, they can offset half of the points that would be deducted even if they don't complete the final quest.
As for the hidden quest, they had no clue what to do all day and had no idea where to start looking for it. In fact, even Lin Leyou, who was now the final boss, did not know what the hidden quest was.
Lin Leyou checked the surveillance footage to see who was eating in the staff canteen. There were a total of 116 people who stayed at the company after get off work, excluding himself, of course.
Among these 116 people, some players have their own underlings, but they cannot leave the top floor now, so they cannot confirm which are their underlings and which are the players.
