Ruan Jiyan had very sharp ears, and he started to speed up when he heard a faint sound coming from afar. After taking a shower, he came out of the bathroom with a candle in his hand, and heard the sound of someone coming upstairs.
"Thump, thump." The footsteps were heavy and slow, different from the sound she made when she went upstairs before. The owner of this voice was obviously much heavier than her, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
Ruan Jiyan paused and used his hands to block the wind that came from nowhere, and the candles continued to flicker.
Although the footsteps were slow, Ruan Jiyan felt that the voice was getting closer and closer to her.
She remembered what You Jie had said to her, to lock the doors and windows, hide under the quilt and not make a sound.
Although he didn't know whether this person really had good intentions towards him, he could only do what he said to avoid exposing his identity too early. Ruan Jiyan tiptoed to the bed, put down the candles and lay down quickly.
All she could hear was the heavy and powerful footsteps approaching her.
As she blew out the candle, the footsteps outside the door disappeared. Ruan Jiyan moved her ears and didn't hear any movement.
A few seconds later, the melody of a nursery rhyme suddenly came from somewhere, familiar yet unfamiliar, and it seemed particularly eerie in this building.
I was walking alone on a path in the suburbs...
The fog was so thick that I couldn't even see the moon...
The little girl hummed these two sentences repeatedly, her voice lengthened deliberately, making it so eerie that it gave people goosebumps.
The singing stopped after a long time, and then the little girl hummed and laughed twice, making a giggling sound that made people feel creepy.
This sound was the same as the game prompt sound, echoing throughout the entire building, and was accompanied by the sound of bells, as if the little girl was running and the bells were shaking as she ran.
No matter how calm Ruan Ji Yan was before, he couldn't help but get goosebumps now. This thing was too horrible.
In addition to the chill that surged into her heart for a moment, she was more confused. She remembered that she had never experienced this plot before, but now she was experiencing it.
Sensing Ruan Jiyan's doubts, the system said: [The first bug has been detected. Please hurry up and find the NPC that appeared due to the bug and destroy it. The reward will be unlocked after completing the task. If the task is not completed, the host will face the danger of a copy loop.]
【Mission time: unlimited】
It's a bug! It looks like this is the extra plot.
The sound of bells rang throughout the corridor, but Ruan Jiyan heard footsteps getting closer and closer to her.
Her room was at the very back of the second floor, and there was no room further inside. However, Ruan Jiyan heard the movements of the little girl and it was obvious that she had come in from outside and then walked back in.
This... where did she go? Is there a secret passage at the innermost part of this floor that leads to other places? Is this little girl a human or a ghost? Why did she appear here? And why did she walk around here so blatantly? Couldn't the werewolf find her?
Or... is she in cahoots with the werewolves?
Moreover, the footsteps that just went upstairs and the little girl's footsteps were obviously not from the same person. Where did that "person" go?
Slowly calming down, Ruan Jiyan asked a series of questions.
With a bunch of questions in mind, Ruan Jiyan reluctantly exchanged a life-saving talisman with the system. After that, Ruan Jiyan, who was exceptionally clear-headed, forced himself to close his eyes.
After a while, the system was puzzled, but admired her. [Weren't you scared to the point of having goosebumps just now? How could you fall asleep so quickly? ]
Ruan Jiyan was a hedonist. She was very sleepy now. Her vague consciousness was awakened by the sound of the system. She replied carefreely: [It is a blessing, not a curse. It is a curse that cannot be avoided. You have to die sooner or later. If you can't escape, you might as well take a nap. At least there is a life-saving talisman. ]
[As your binding system, I admire your generosity.] The system wanted to give her a thumbs up.
In comparison, the people in other rooms were not so calm. You Jie had a lucky charm stuck on his body and a silver knife as long as his arm in his hand.
At this moment, his cloud live broadcast room was crowded with players watching, everyone was very excited, and bullet screens were flying everywhere.
Ahhh: [How come I haven't experienced the plot here before? Is it a new plot or a bug?]
The goddess of luck descended upon me: [Fuck, listening to this song can scare me to death, luckily my novice copy was not assigned here, otherwise I would be a piao now chatting with you.]
Buddhist boy: [Not necessarily. You still have a chance to get in here, like Youjie.]
I am your die: [By the way, what happened to the girl who just came today? It seems that there is no cloud live broadcast room, and I can't see her.]
Rookie says: [Could it be some low-profile boss, or... is he already dead!]
After entering this game, everyone has their own binding system. The stronger your own ability is, the stronger the system ability is, and the two complement each other.
The cloud live broadcast room is a system that records real-time images and presents them to other players in a live broadcast format. The ability to open the cloud live broadcast room is also divided into different levels. Low-level players of level 10 and below cannot open the cloud live broadcast room camera, while players of level 70 and above can turn off the camera at will.
If other players want to turn the camera on or off, they need to request the system, and the system will agree after confirming that there is no violation.
Of course, you can earn life points by live streaming. The more people watch your live streaming and the more bets you place, the more life points you will get.
I am your die: [She can even catch the ghost hand with her bare hands, it is impossible for her to die so easily...]
jeif: [Didn’t you hear her say that she didn’t kill him. If she was really a big shot, she shouldn’t hide her strength. She could have gained more popularity and traffic.]
Smucker: [I don't think she's dead. Don't ask me, it's just my intuition.]
Ahahahaha: [Fuck! The level 60 boss upstairs! The boss’s chat box is full of domineering, boss, look at me!]
The chat boxes and titles of players in this game are different at different levels. There are no chat boxes and titles for players at level 10 and below. The chat box for players above level 20 is a thin black line frame, and the chat box for players above level 30 is a bold black line frame. The chat box for players above level 40 is white, level 50 is green, level 60 to level 80 are fluorescent blue, and level 90 to level 100 are gold.
The title is simpler and more straightforward. It is to unlock a special new identity based on the player's tasks. The identity is the title, and there is no upper limit to the number of titles that can be worn.
Players are randomly matched in each dungeon, and even in novice dungeons, the levels vary. However, the big guys are rare in the entire server.
You Jie is at level 36, which is above the mid-level. His cloud live broadcast room has already established a certain fan base. Especially tonight, from the moment Ruan Jiyan appeared and took the ghost hand, the number of viewers in the cloud live broadcast room soared straight up.
At the end of this copy, the traffic and reward bets he received can be exchanged for a considerable amount of life points.
Life points are the only currency in the game world. They can be exchanged for items and traded. They can also be exchanged for life points, food, and amulets.
Talismans are also divided into levels. The higher the level, the stronger the life-saving ability, and more life points are required to redeem it.
You Jie found that the topics currently being discussed in the cloud live broadcast room were all centered around the girl who had just arrived today. He finally realized that the sudden surge in the number of people was attracted by her ghost-catching hand.
So no matter what, if he could see her in person again, he would spend more time with her and let her appear on camera more often, so that the traffic of his cloud streaming room would have a chance to increase again.
The next day, the sky suddenly brightened up, without any transition from black to white. It was white all of a sudden, as if a light had suddenly been turned on in a dark space. After getting used to it, everyone sat down at the long table again.
"Did you hear the little girl's singing when you were sleeping last night?" The woman in red asked with panda eyes, listlessly but nervously.
"Of course, her laughter almost made me leave." said the boy who was close to her.
"It's never happened before. It must have something to do with the new guy." This boy used to be a quiet guy, but after meeting Ruan Jiyan yesterday, he had a lot to ask and say.
Another more excited boy was about to say something, but You Jie called out, "Chen Xin, stop talking."
When he looked up, he saw Ruan Jiyan walking towards him from the end of the corridor.
When he woke up this morning and didn't hear the system broadcast of the death, You Jie knew that she was not dead, and it also confirmed his guess.
"Good morning." Ruan Jiyan rubbed his eyes and greeted them sleepily.
You Jie nodded to her, and the boy whose name was called turned his head away awkwardly.
Ruan Jiyan sat down carefully. She always felt that these people's eyes were on her, especially the one opposite her. There seemed to be a hint of... flattery in his eyes?
[I feel like these people are plotting something behind my back. Maybe they want to sell me out?] She is talking to the system.
【Is there a possibility that you are too sensitive? 】
She actually hoped so. If these people really had some ideas about her, she would be no match for them.
Perhaps because there were strangers present, the atmosphere at the long table was very stiff and no one spoke.
You Jie was a well-respected person with a leadership demeanor. He was the first to speak: "I think everyone heard what happened last night."
"yes."
“Yes.”
Ruan Jiyan nodded. It was obvious that You Jie wanted everyone to express what they heard and their own thoughts. However, she still chose to wait and see, not wanting to expose herself easily and be used.
But in other people's hearts, she has become a big shot with a unique personality and hobbies, who is tired of playing high-level dungeons and bullying weak players in low-level dungeons.
What was coming could not be avoided. After asking the boy next to him, You Jie asked her: "Were you okay last night? Did you feel anything unusual?"
She stared at him closely and spoke slowly: "No, I just heard the singing and laughter of a little girl." Her words were similar to those of the boy before.
Before she fully understood this group of people, Ruan Jiyan decided to hide herself at all times. Even if she had to pretend to be a big shot, these people knew that she was a newbie and would definitely push her out to avoid harm.
You Jie was very suspicious. They didn't vote last night because he knew that if someone had to die that night, it would definitely be the new girl. Because no matter whether she was the one who killed the ghost hand or not, the resentment was on her, which was enough to make the werewolf kill her several times.
This new girl must be hiding some unspeakable secret.
But he didn't say anything. When he failed to get any information out of the question, he changed the subject and started introducing himself: "My name is Youjie, level 36."
Starting with him, everyone began to introduce themselves.
Another boy who was more taciturn spoke up: "My name is Yin An, grade 19."
"My name is Chen Xin, Grade 19"
Ruan Jiyan could feel the kindness of the woman in red the most. She introduced herself: "Li Mingyue, level 15."
She followed the order in which they introduced themselves, and her eyes stopped on the last woman. In fact, they didn't need introductions, as Ruan Ji Yan had already seen through the attributes and skills of all of them present.
The woman in white was a little embarrassed, especially when she saw Ruan Jiyan's calm expression and remembered her crazy look yesterday, so she whispered, "Zhang Jing, level 13."
After listening to the last person's introduction, Ruan Jiyan said calmly: "Ruan Jiyan... Level 3."
Ruan Jiyan didn't expect these people to introduce themselves so suddenly. Before she could come up with an excuse and explain her rank, it was her turn. She could only remain calm and honest.
This is good. Although the pretending time is short, it also saves them from guessing what she is doing.
She could still deal with these few people easily, after all, her last game level was ninety-eight.
Level 3!!!
Level 3 noob, no, newbie!
The calmness maintained on everyone's faces began to crack, and was replaced by shock.
This guy is not a big shot at all, he is clearly misleading!
Everyone showed expressions of disbelief. A level 3 newbie used the ghost hand and actually managed to survive a whole night. It was impossible for her to be so incredible without some special abilities.
Are all the newbies so awesome nowadays? So abnormal!
The comment section of You Jie's live broadcast room exploded.
Buried Love: [There must be a ghost, how is it possible!]
Noobs, get out of here: [I obviously don’t believe that she’s a newbie. She’s been exposed to the ghost hand and spent Christmas Eve under the eyes of a werewolf. Is she a newbie? This girl must be the chosen one!]
Lelelelezi: [Okay, now let’s vote. Those who think this newbie won’t live long will vote red, and those who think she is the chosen one will vote blue. I vote blue!]
Sandman Pig Heart: [Oh, it's all luck, but I still voted blue, I hope she lives longer, I haven't seen this plot yet, give me some experience.]
Yin An frowned and asked her, "You said you came here as soon as you opened your eyes, then why did you fall into a coma? What were you doing before you fell into a coma?"
"Oh, yes, yes, and there's one more thing! You said that Ghost Hand wasn't killed by you, so who killed him? Did you see the person?" Zhang Jing said excitedly. She was scared by Ghost Hand the whole night last night, and now she finally remembered to ask about this.
…
[I said they must have discussed something...] Ruan Jiyan complained to the system.
[I can't escape. I also want to know how you're going to write this story.] The system said gloatingly.
Ruan Jiyan hesitated, not knowing how to start. She didn't know that besides herself, everyone else was also involved in the game.
