Chapter 380 [(*^▽^*)]
Of course, there is one exception: the player Lin Leyou ordered to be wanted. He is now practically a pariah. Unless they are employees who came out of the black fog outside the building during the day without knowing anything, they would not know about the wanted notice. All the players who stayed at the company last night are hunting him down.
However, since it was still daytime, no one dared to act openly. They would only dare to make a move if they found him in a secluded place. Of course, this player was also afraid to gamble that if he appeared in a crowded place, they would not dare to make a move, so he tried his best to find a place to hide.
This quest doesn't last until the end of the instance; instead, there's a countdown. Once it's completed, the bounty will disappear, and you won't get any reward even if you kill the quest.
The wanted period is exactly 24 hours, meaning it ends at 6:00 AM tomorrow. Many players aren't in a hurry right now, as doing this during the day might not be appropriate. If they're deemed to have violated the rules, they might also be wanted and hunted down.
It's better to be safe and wait until after 6 p.m. to take action. They don't believe that this person is so weak that he could be hunted down and killed in broad daylight. If he really dies, then they'll just consider it bad luck.
Lin Leyou wasn't interested in these people during the day, so he slept on the top floor. Last night was the first night, and all the ghosts that appeared in the building were ordinary ghosts, with no powerful elite monsters.
Thinking of elite monsters, Lin Leyou couldn't help but recall the one he had chased in the real world before, which seemed to be an elite monster in a B-level difficulty dungeon.
That level of difficulty... I must say, it was really quite impressive. I was only able to pinpoint the opponent's location because of the **. Otherwise, given the opponent's ability to appear and disappear without a trace, I would likely have suffered a loss.
"Phew... These dungeons are getting harder and harder. Any elite monster here would have been a boss-level monster in the old dungeons."
"I wonder if elite monsters will appear tonight... or even tonight..."
Not much happened during the day. The wanted player hid very well, and no one discovered him all day. He didn't show up at night either.
No one found it strange, after all, there were still twelve hours left before the countdown ended. At night, both players and ghosts would go on a killing spree, and if he wanted to survive, he had to lie low.
Lin Leyou watched the player who had hidden away with great interest. Sure enough, he really knew how to find a good spot! He was hiding somewhere else, right in the middle of the corridor between the 44th and 43rd floors.
He also used items to help him hide, so as long as he doesn't move, no one can find him. This is a place that players at this stage would definitely not come to.
The elite monsters under the five big bosses on the 43rd floor almost always take the elevator to go up and down; at least so far, I haven't seen them walk up or down the stairs.
Lin Leyou couldn't help but admire this player; he truly grasped the principle that the most dangerous place is the safest place perfectly.
The boring day always passes quickly. The sky outside turned from gray to pitch black again. Of course, after get off work hours, a large number of employees left the building and entered the black fog outside.
Players could only stand inside the building and peek through the windows; no one dared to actually try to see if they could pass through the black fog.
After all, similar black fog has appeared in many other dungeons, and some NPCs can go in and even come out again. Some players didn't believe it and tried it, but none of them survived.
They soon discovered that the number of ordinary NPCs staying to work overtime today was about the same as last night. Lin Leyou also noticed this, which meant that the consumables for these ordinary NPCs could be replenished every day.
Lin Leyou counted how many people were still in the company the next night, and found that there were only 97 people, twenty fewer than the day before.
Based on this, the total number of players and ghosts who died yesterday was twenty. The number of ghosts who died, plus the one who was ambushed and killed by players after 6 a.m., is eleven. In other words, the number of players who died yesterday can be confirmed as eight.
It can be roughly deduced that there are a total of fifty players and forty ghosts, including five elite monsters on the floor below them, thirty-five ordinary ghosts, and twenty-six ordinary NPC background figures that are replenished every day. These NPCs are left behind at night as food for the ghosts.
This dungeon is quite interesting. I wonder if these ordinary ghosts will become more powerful after eating so many people, since there are currently 42 players but only 29 ghosts left.
Furthermore, there are no rewards for players killing each other, which leads them to only fight for ordinary ghosts in the early stages, and then unite to deal with the big boss in the later stages!
If I don't want things to be too difficult later on, I have to make as many players die as possible in the early stages. Since I can't do it myself, then I can only...
He could only order the five elite monsters on the floor below to go out and hunt down players. Just as he had this thought, a system notification came!
"System notification: After 6 PM the next day, one of the elite monsters stationed on the 43rd floor will be allowed to hunt players! And so on."
Lin Leyou gasped. He really wanted to kill this system. Why couldn't it have said these things sooner? Did it have to let him discover them on his own?
What if he doesn't think of that? Or what if he doesn't think of it until much later? Oh well, anyway, it's a good thing that we can send an elite monster out tonight.
There were five elite monsters on the 43rd floor. One was a woman with the numbers 01 above her head, two were refined men with the numbers 02 and 03, and two were muscular bodyguards with the numbers 04 and 05. He looked at them again and again, but why were there no descriptions of their abilities? Was he being forced to choose blindly?
"System, could you describe the abilities of these five elite monsters?"
The system didn't respond, which was good. This was indeed a blind selection. He looked at the monitor again and again, but couldn't see anything at all. In the end, he still chose one of the two refined young men, 03, based on his intuition.
"System notification: Elite monster 03 has been dispatched. If it survives after 6:00 AM, it will return to floor 43 on its own. Two more elite monsters can be dispatched the following day, and so on."
Lin Leyou thought it sounded pretty good. He could send out one elite monster on the second night, and if it survived, he could add one more on the third day, sending out two more, three on the fourth, four on the fifth, and on the sixth day, the day he could move freely again, if all five elite monsters survived…
Players will then face a super boss and his five elite monster minions!
"Hmph..." Just thinking about it makes me feel great. I'll lead my little brothers to slaughter everyone in the world. Lin Leyou thought to himself happily as he looked through his backpack to see what weapons he would use later.
He had never used the gold-plated weapon, the Void, which was covered in gold gems. Although the weapon was useful, it didn't seem quite right for this place. Here, it was more appropriate to use it amidst bloodshed and carnage.
A cursed dagger? This weapon is indeed one he often uses, and now that he also possesses the Golden Sun, an item that accelerates mental recovery, it's definitely much easier to use than before.
He had already tried it in the real world, and it was indeed good, but there were some limitations; it couldn't be used more than a certain number of times consecutively.
My current identity is the dungeon boss, and the cursed dagger has the effect of instantly killing targets that are not stronger than me.
In the entire dungeon, who is stronger than this big boss? The answer is no. In other words, if you are hit by this sword, you will die in one hit!
That was indeed very good, but then he saw another purple-grade weapon, which he had snatched from a player during the hospital dungeon.
It's a Tang Dynasty Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword). Its effect is that there's a 5% chance of triggering a "one-cut-two-part" effect with each use! No matter where you hit, it will cut the enemy in two.
He then took the Tang Mo Dao in his hand and examined it carefully. The Tang Mo Dao was about three meters long, or ten feet long, and it was a double-edged sword that looked very majestic and imposing.
This weapon doesn't seem very effective! If the person using the weapon is strong enough, they can cut the enemy in half if they hit the right spot.
However, this effect has a 5% chance of triggering "One Slash, Two Cuts" regardless of where the attack hits, which is more of an added bonus.
Lin Leyou practiced a set of sword techniques in the empty office and felt pretty good about it. "You're the one for this dungeon weapon. Give it your all!"
It's been 20 or 30 minutes past six o'clock. Many people are still eating in the staff canteen, but many ghosts have already begun to hide in certain places, waiting for their prey to take the bait.
The player teams quickly finished their meals, formed groups, and left the restaurant. They tacitly avoided following the other teams and headed to different floors.
Their goal is clear: to find the ghosts, kill them to gain points, and potentially weaken the final boss's overall strength.
Although they didn't know why some ordinary ghosts appeared after last night, the more powerful ones or the big bosses were nowhere to be seen.
But they all knew that not showing up on the first night did not mean they wouldn't show up on the second or third night; they had to remain vigilant at all times!
It's the same chat group.
Number 5: "I snuck out! Boss, tell me quickly, which floor are we going to hunt ghosts on tonight? I'm so bored during the day!"
