Chapter 39
"I don't know what's going on outside. Can they defeat the demon tribe?" The players who didn't leave were actually a little eager to try. Encountering the demon tribe here was like running into a boss in the wild. Even if they couldn't beat them, who wouldn't want to watch the fun?
"Who knows? The sound insulation here is so good that I can't hear anything outside."
"I think it's difficult. Generally, only regular soldiers dare to fight monsters head-on." Everyone was a player with several years of martial arts training, but no one dared to be arrogant when facing the monsters: "I would rather fight a squad of people than go up against monsters. Their attacks are too bloody and cruel..."
To prevent players from getting carried away and actively seeking out the demon tribe, the official released a video of the demon tribe fighting. The process was extremely bloody and could give adults nightmares. If this video was not an official science popularization video, it would probably not pass the review due to its bloodiness.
"Would you like to buy a ticket and take part in an ancient underground guerrilla war?" The player, who was the waiter, came over enthusiastically and handed over a stack of brochures.
"How can the underground of the guerrilla inn lead to other places?"
"That's right, guest. Besides the Novice Village, many inns in the county town have underground passages. If you encounter an emergency, you can escape through the tunnels to where the staff are staying in the county town."
Most of the courtyards of the constables and delinquents in the county town serve as the exits to the inn. However, to prevent compromising their identities and security, the tunnels are generally only open to players at night and are closed during the day when the staff are at work.
"Wow, that sounds exciting! Are the tickets expensive?"
"That depends on how many tunnel tickets the guests want to buy. We have a total of five tunnels in Longmen Inn, and the price of each tunnel is different." Of course, there are more than five constables or bad guys in Changling City, but the residences of the others are far away from Longmen Inn, and digging tunnels will exceed the budget.
Following the waiter's enthusiastic recommendation, everyone saw that the ticket price was indeed not expensive, so they all paid for it, eager to launch a surprise attack on the demon tribe.
Young people are full of energy and sleeping five to seven hours a day can ensure they are full of energy for the next day. In addition, the holiday has not yet ended, so these people can't help but indulge themselves by staying up late and don't want to log off until now.
But it doesn't matter, the system will teach them a lesson. If there is a problem with their physical data, they will be kicked off the line by the system on the spot.
Player: I'm healthy! Why did you kick me off the line?
System: Your heart rate doesn't say that. Dear, cherish life and stay away from sudden death.
"Hey, we're going to play guerrilla warfare. You wanna come?" Seeing Bei Qiao sitting alone on the recliner without moving, the player who was about to enter the tunnel shouted at Bei Qiao: "If we get lucky and destroy the demon tribe, we'll be rich!"
"No, thank you. I'm too sleepy and planning to log off." Bei Qiao smiled and shook his head. After watching them enter the tunnel, he checked the time and turned to the waiter: "Excuse me, what time does this tunnel close during the day?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment. "Do you mean in the early morning? The shop is open until six in the morning at the latest. Guests must return to the basement before six to avoid being locked in the tunnel."
"Okay, then can I book the tunnel ticket from five to six in the morning?" Bei Qiao yawned again: Forget about staying up late, it's not good for your health, so you'd better get up early.
The waiter checked the system and nodded. "Yes, sir. After you pay, you will get a reservation code. When the time comes, just scan it at the entrance of the tunnel using the forum interface."
"Okay, thank you."
After paying the money and getting the appointment code, Bei Qiao logged off without any reluctance, took off his holographic glasses, lay down on the bed, and tried to fall asleep.
Perhaps the protagonist would stay up late to launch a surprise attack on the demon tribe, contribute to the safety of Changling City, clean up the battlefield, and gain capital for future growth, but Beiqiao himself never thought of being the protagonist.
Refuse to stay up late and go out at risk. It is too dangerous at night and staying up late will harm your health.
If you meddle in a stranger's affairs and refuse him, you won't be able to use him as cattle and horses in your next life, and there is no need to be promised your body to him.
Refusing to buy things at a bargain is not because you don’t want to get rich, but because you don’t have the capital, vision or luck to get rich.
To sum up, Bei Qiao rejected all possibilities that would endanger his own health and safety, and at the same time blocked the possibility of any adventures.
Bei Qiao: I don’t think I am the protagonist of the adventure. There is no need to waste time on adventures that are basically impossible to exist. The real thing is to be prepared and seize opportunities.
After barely catching up on some sleep, Bei Qiao woke up at 4:55 a.m., turned off the alarm, adjusted herself, and donned her holographic glasses to log into "Another World of Martial Arts." Tang Yuan, who had been lying in bed with her, was awakened by the noise of her getting up. He rolled over unhappily, covering his ears with his paws.
When he reentered the inn's basement, there were only a few guests online. Bei Qiao walked out of his cubicle and happened to run into the last wave of players playing the tunnel. Some of them were dejected, while others were cursing. It was unclear what had happened to them.
After saying hello to the waiter and using the forum to open the entrance to the tunnel, Bei Qiao went into the tunnel carrying the lantern given with the ticket to the inn, and walked forward according to the safety signs on the walls on both sides.
The tunnel was very long. After walking for a few minutes, Bei Qiao realized he hadn't reached the exit yet, so he quickly quickened his pace. Finally reaching the exit, Bei Qiao pushed open the stone trapdoor and crawled out of the tunnel, holding onto the wall to catch his breath.
No wonder the limited-time tickets for this authentic tunnel are discounted. It took almost twenty minutes to walk all the way from the basement, and the same amount of time to go back. Excluding the time spent on the road, there are only a little more than ten minutes left to stay here.
"Well, the ticket price is really worth it. The terrain here is really good." The exit of the tunnel is on the top floor of the house. There is a telescope next to it. Through it, you can see the north gate of Changling and the demon tribe at the gate being challenged by a team of guards.
The demon is a canine, and judging by its tail, it's a wolf. Its fur is quite white, its body is sturdy, and its fur is smooth. Judging from its appearance alone, this demon is quite good-looking. Visitors can touch its bald hair in the zoo.
"No wonder those people are depressed, it turns out that the demon tribe has been surrounded by the natives, but it has been three hours and it is not over yet." Bei Qiao carefully observed the situation on the opposite side: Obviously no one was injured, so why could no one take down the demon tribe?
The telescope's mirror area was limited, and Bei Qiao vaguely saw a corner of a gorgeous dress and the back of a very comfortable-looking chair at the edge of the lens. There was also a small table next to the chair back with some fruits and snacks on it: "Oh my, an ancient version of the indigenous krypton gold players." It turned out that the group of guards were just blocking the monster there, waiting for the master to make the final move!
Bei Qiao was a little curious about the man in the fancy clothes, but she had no intention of moving the telescope to observe him. It was already getting light, and if she moved the lens and caused a flash, both she and the owner of the house would be in trouble.
"Hmm?" Princess Jinyang suddenly opened her eyes and looked to the side and back.
"Princess, did I wake you up?" The maid who was fanning the girl beside her suddenly became nervous.
"No, I just felt someone was looking at me." Princess Jinyang didn't notice anything unusual, frowned and turned her head back: How annoying, it can't be those unruly people who want to take advantage of the situation again.
"Such a perceptive person." Bei Qiao quickly looked away before Princess Jinyang turned her head. "I don't think she'll notice me... Never mind, I'll see what's happening outside later."
Releasing the telescope, Bei Qiao began to observe his surroundings. "It's quite clean inside, but it's not very crowded." After purchasing a ticket, players can visit the room where the tunnel is located. Perhaps because this place is frequented by people, the staff didn't bother decorating the room, simply throwing in some unused items to disguise it.
In order to prevent the existence of the tunnel from being revealed, this room has no windows and only a wooden door leading to the outside world. Currently, this door is locked from the outside, and generally no one will come in unless there is a special situation.
"Sorry, I hit him a little too hard." Bei Qiao picked up a piece of old curtain from the ground and tied up the thief he had knocked unconscious. He hoped not to cause trouble to the owner of the house. He should tie him up again to prevent him from running away. What a trouble! Why did a thief appear at this time?
Thief: Damn, isn't the owner of the house taking a nap downstairs? Where did this pretty boy come from?
Bei Qiao: It’s strange, I always feel like someone is calling me a pretty boy.
After tying the man up and throwing him out the door, Bei Qiao turned back and took another look at the telescope.
At this time, the man in gorgeous clothes in the camera seemed to have rested. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief, stood up and took the whip presented by the maid beside him, and turned sideways to reveal a proud and childish face.
"The pattern on the clothes...a royal girl..." Bei Qiao nodded, and seeing that time was almost up, he hurriedly ran towards the tunnel: Let's make friends with the royal family, the real thing is to hurry back to the inn, otherwise he would be locked in the tunnel if he went back too late.
After returning to the inn from the tunnel, Bei Qiao sat down and lay down in his small compartment, raised the partition and went straight offline, ready to take another nap.
Although I already knew that the big white wolf was going to be executed on the spot, I still had to be cautious and not return to the ground before I saw the end. If the wolf struggled to death and took the inn away with a wave of ultimate attacks, my account would be wasted.
Among the players, there are cautious people like Bei Qiao, and naturally there are also all kinds of reckless people who seek death in various ways.
Just when Princess Jinyang was planning to completely eliminate the demon tribe in one go, a few players teamed up with the natives and waited for an opportunity to act, revealing in their words that they wanted to find a chance to take advantage of the situation.
The native quickly distanced himself from the other party: My Lords, I am not in the same group with him! Please let me go!
