Chapter 69 [(*^▽^*)]
After carefully reviewing the information, Lin Leyou learned that the security guard he was to play worked in three shifts, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., a total of eight hours, and he could rest at 4 p.m.
It seems I need to set an alarm; I don't want to be late... I set an alarm for 7:30 on my phone.
Only then did I have time to check my work clothes.
"Security uniform for Xingfu Community: Wearing this will greatly reduce the chances of anything strange attacking you during working hours."
"The security guard's stun gun: It can be used to subdue anything that disturbs the order of the community. It is sure to hit the target and has a paralyzing effect that lasts for ten minutes."
The items are quite good.
Lin Leyou still found it a bit strange. Shouldn't an order officer come and deal with the situation if the dungeon boss gets out of control?
Why would they assign a task to me?
No, maybe it's not just him. Other players who were brought here have all received this mission. These 1000 points are likely to be fought over!
He thought of Lin Wanyi. There must be a lot of security guards, so this time they might not send Lin Wanyi, whom he knew.
No, if an order officer were actually coming, this task shouldn't be possible.
"Notice: This instance has been locked by the BOSS. You are not allowed to enter or leave. You can leave if you die."
Lin Leyou was silent for a moment after seeing the notification. Did this system have a delay? Or could the system roughly detect the thoughts in his mind and explain the current situation to him?
"Why……"
Lin Leyou stroked his chin. The system had him playing the role of a player, and the security guard identity was just his job until the dungeon ended.
The other players must also have their own identities.
First, you need to let other players know your identity, but you can't let them realize you're an NPC. If you fail... you'll lose 500 points!
This isn't actually difficult; the difficulty lies in whether, as a security guard, he can cover his face. If these players remember it, then when they encounter him in the real world...
After all, he has the task of killing players, and any player he kills will know that he is an imposter.
And who knows if, after the dungeon ends, the players who survived will find out they were fake players?
He even encountered Zhou Feng, so while the probability of him encountering others is very low, it is still possible.
He either had to wear a mask all the time when he went out in the real world, or he had to cover his face in the endless world. He suddenly remembered the bag of masks he had picked up while shopping.
She got up and went to the living room, where she pulled out a face mask from a drawer. "Hmm, I'll use this to cover my face tomorrow."
The security guard uniform still has a hood, so when he wears the hood, he only needs to lower his head slightly so that other players can't see his face.
The most important thing is that you absolutely must not run into Xue Rui this time, otherwise your fake player identity will be exposed instantly, and you will lose 500 points!
500 points are equivalent to 5 million for someone who needs money!
etc!
Lin Leyou suddenly realized something: he used to think that 10 points a month in Happiness Community was very cheap, much cheaper than the official rate of 1 point a day for houses, and the houses were also particularly nice.
But now, looking at it from a different perspective, the rent for a house in this community is 100,000 yuan a month!
He immediately realized how expensive it was, really incredibly expensive!
That much money could buy a house right on the street in his hometown county!
"Forget it, there's no need to feel bad. Unlike the real world, the houses here are all detected by the system as homes, which are completely safe places, and they even have automatic anti-theft functions."
He quickly convinced himself that it was still a good deal, much better than the standard government-allocated housing that the driver had told him about, which cost one point a day.
He casually placed the mask he had taken out on the cabinet by the door, glanced at the peephole, and saw nothing outside.
He knew he wouldn't see anything.
Lin Leyou lay back down on the bed, and less than two minutes later, there was another knock on the door. Speechless, she ignored it and continued to sleep with her eyes closed.
However, the thing outside probably knew he could hear it, so it kept knocking on the door relentlessly, as if it would keep knocking until he opened the door.
Lin Leyou lay on the bed, completely in pain. The noise in the middle of the night was incredibly annoying. In the real world, he would have grabbed a knife and gone straight out, but here…
He lay in bed, his brows furrowed, the knocking on the door sounding like it was hammering into his head, one knock after another.
Frustrated, he started rummaging through his backpack. He only had four items in total, two of which were the most basic white grenade items, and the remaining two…
A black mirror. The person he had previously looked into was Song Ying, the village chief of Shangyu Village. He must be very powerful, but he didn't know what abilities Song Ying possessed before he used it.
Using this now is impractical and inappropriate.
That leaves only the item Lin Wanyi gave him as compensation: a cursed purple-grade dagger. The thing outside definitely isn't human.
This dagger is not just for attacking people, of course. Using it now is no problem. The only thing he needs to consider is whether the thing outside the door is stronger or weaker than him.
If the opponent is weaker or about the same strength, then he doesn't need to worry; he can kill them with just one strike. The only one he needs to worry about is someone stronger than him—how many strikes would he need to make to kill them?
He didn't yet know how many times he would have to slash with this sharp knife before he completely lost his mind, so he had to think it over carefully no matter what.
The knocking was truly unbearable; he absolutely hated people who disturbed others' sleep late at night.
Even if you're not human, it won't work!
He took out a seemingly unassuming sharp knife, got up and quietly walked to the door. After observing for a while, he found nothing wrong, and the knocking outside stopped.
Lin Leyou was certain that as long as he went back to his room and continued to sleep, the knocking would start again.
He was also certain that the thing knocking on the door hadn't left, so if he opened the door, could it get in?
The security guard said that nothing can come in without my permission. So if I don't speak, invite, or give permission, does that mean that even if I open the door, nothing from the outside can come in?
Lin Leyou gripped the sharp knife tightly in his hand. He thought, "Let's give it a try. You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. If I'm too careful in everything I do, things might not be peaceful in the future."
And as we can see from what happened today, these things are not something that can be ignored or left alone if we don't provoke them.
They will come to you on their own initiative, and you will be attacked even if you are an NPC.
He reached out his left hand and slowly opened the door.
A chill swept over him, and he shifted his gaze. The outside was empty and eerily quiet. Lin Leyou looked around as if he didn't feel anything. Nothing was there, and nothing was in front of him either. So, it must be above.
The instant he looked up, he felt a black shadow moving about, but he couldn't even see what it was. His right hand instinctively rose and waved.
The next second, a scream exploded in his ears, catching him off guard and making him dizzy. In addition, the successful strike he had just made had caused him to lose some of his rationality.
With a soft "thump," Lin Leyou looked ahead and saw a disheveled female ghost dressed in white with twisted limbs fall at the doorway.
She was scratching at the floor and walls with her twisted limbs, screaming and rolling around.
Upon closer inspection, Lin Leyou discovered that her clothes on her back had been ripped open, and the flesh inside had also been torn open. There was no bleeding, but the bone inside was visible, and it was pitch black.
Lin Leyou didn't just watch. After he came to his senses, he realized that he hadn't lost too much of his rationality. Therefore, he could conclude that although the female ghost was stronger than him, she was definitely not much stronger.
Without any mercy, he stabbed her again.
After a piercing scream, the female ghost gradually vanished into nothingness, leaving behind something in her wake.
Lin Leyou quickly put away the dagger, picked up the things on the ground, went home, and closed the door.
He went to the living room, threw himself on the sofa, and lay there with his eyes closed for two or three minutes before he came to his senses. He had stabbed the female ghost twice, and he had lost about half of his sanity. In other words, in order to avoid going crazy, he could only slash three times at most each time.
Once he swings the fourth knife, he will completely lose his mind, and he doesn't even know what he will do then.
After all, they had lost all reason.
Lin Leyou and the others only began to examine the item they had picked up after they had fully regained consciousness; it was a prop card.
The card has some mechanical-related drawings on it. What does that mean?
When he tried to check the card information, he saw a system notification.
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for killing a female ghost in Building 5 of Happiness Community. Reward: 50 points."
Holy crap, there are points rewards for this?
Lin Leyou's eyes lit up. Not only were there dropped items, but there were also reward points! What a bargain!
That makes sense. After all, he got a 100-point reward for killing the chef in the Clearwater Town instance, but this female ghost only gets 50 points, which means she's half the chef's strength.
He looked at the card in his hand again.
"Mechanical Card: Click to use and you will receive a random mechanical item."
Lin Leyou clicked to use it, and the item card disappeared from his hand, replaced by a small, silver-white mechanical ball about the size of a ping-pong ball. Upon closer inspection, it appeared to have many gaps on it.
"What is this thing..."
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for obtaining a blue-grade mechanical spider. This mechanical spider requires 10 points to activate and consumes 1 point for every hour of use."
