Chapter 41: Twins 6 The system shuts down

There were splashes in the pond, a few bubbles popped up on the surface, ripples spread out, and then the water returned to calm.

It looked like the speech had indeed been pushed forward, and there was no sign of any struggle.

Such tranquility and smoothness made people feel uneasy. Several players squatted on it and observed for a long time, but did not see anything strange. They looked underwater and could not see anything.

Andy waited by the pool for a while.

The noise coming from here will probably attract some players to watch.

Thinking that Zhu Ci was very close to Mo Yangbing, Andy didn't plan to stay too long. He took out his props and went to check in the pool.

The water in the pool is deep, as black as ink, and filled with a ghostly aura.

"Let's go," he said.

It seems that this selected newcomer is no different.

…

"What are you doing?"

Just when Andy was about to walk out of the swimming pool, two people suddenly appeared at the door.

But it was Mo Yangbing and another player.

【“Well, I can understand Mo Yangbing coming here, but why did Meng Yuanzhou come here too?”

"This has now become a battle between three guilds."

"Well, for a mere newcomer."】

…

Mo Yangbing received a hint from Mo Anan in the room, asking him to rescue Zhu Ci. He was still dealing with the toys at that time, which took some time, but now that he has come here, it seems that everything has been settled.

"The players in the top 200 of the rankings are so shameless to target a newcomer." Meng Yuanzhou said in a weird tone.

Andy spread his hands: "Target? Did I? It just happened to be my fault."

Mo Yangbing didn't plan to say more to him and walked to the edge of the pool to take a look.

His talent gives him one more line on the game interface than others, that is the san value. If it is seriously polluted, he will go crazy on the spot.

Andy sneered: "Oh, you two have a really good relationship."

Mo Yangbing's san value dropped by ten points after seeing this. It was originally only seventy, but now it has reached the passing line of sixty.

He could only raise his head to slow down.

Meng Yuanzhou sneered: "Go away, by the way, you guys in the guild are all crazy dogs, I just said it casually, what's wrong with that?"

Even though he was being so rude, Andy didn't get angry. Instead, the player next to him took advantage of Andy's presence and angrily asked, "How can you talk like that?"

"Huh? The dogs around the dog will bite people. I'm so scared, but I don't have a rabies vaccine." His words were harsh and his posture was very irritating.

Mo Yangbing glanced at Meng Yuanzhou, not understanding why he would speak for Zhu Ci.

Is there any benefit for the Candlelight Guild to offend the Despair Guild?

"If you want to fight here, I don't mind." Andy said contemptuously.

Mo Yangbing was not too anxious because Mo Anan had just given him a gift and told him not to worry too much for the time being.

Mo Yangbing stood up and said, "Go find the drain."

A short-haired woman came out from behind Meng Yuanzhou and said, "We are all in the same instance. There is no need to fight over this. It's almost night, so let's go back first."

Andy sneered and left with his men.

Meng Yuanzhou glanced at the woman and said, "Shouldn't he have beaten her?"

"You can't defeat them." The woman analyzed objectively, "They have more people."

"Three? There are three of us too."

"Who's with you and us? Only you."

While they were talking, Mo Yangbing was already looking for a way to drain the water.

The short-haired woman walked to the pool and squatted down. She said calmly, "Don't panic."

There is really no need to panic.

…

【“The host’s operation…”

"He should not kill himself."

"It looks like he won't die for now. Someone has come to rescue him."】

As soon as he fell into the swimming pool, Zhu Ci felt a dull pain.

He knew what was underwater was trying to kill him.

But at this time, he unbuttoned his clothes and took off his clothes with all his strength.

[Please put it back on within three minutes, countdown 2:58]

The pressure on his body suddenly eased, and then he felt a force pulling him downward.

Zhuci saw the surrounding scene.

The group of little ghosts didn't even have time to retract the angry expressions on their faces before they turned into smiles, and the strength in their hands loosened a little, pulling him down.

This piece of clothing on your body cannot be thrown away.

Just like the player this morning, he couldn't get rid of the clothes even after he died, which shows that there must be ten intern childcare teachers.

The intern manual states that interns should call regular employees when they encounter problems or dangers. How should regular employees make the call?

Does this mean that there is actually a full-time employee working in this room? Does he meet the criteria for being in danger now?

If this copy knew that the intern was at risk of falling into the pool, would it provide a way to contact the regular employees?

Zhuci can swim, and the pool in the dungeon is different from the real one. These babies push him and pull him to a place, as if they are welcoming new friends.

Zhu Ci was basically certain that as long as he had the clothes in his hand, he would never be pulled in.

The negative effects of the pills are no joke. Seeing ghosts for a long time will really affect one's nerves. In addition, he is now surrounded by ghosts. Even if his willpower is strong, his mental strength will have some problems.

He felt that he could see more and more ghosts around him.

There were only ten seconds left in the three-minute countdown, and he put on his clothes half-heartedly.

The surrounding pools of water dried up, and in their place was the pain of a body being constantly pulled.

Zhu Ci took off his clothes again.

It only takes a second for a baby's expression to change from anger to smile, and they feel like they are going schizophrenic.

Zhu Ci was led down again. The baby's speed gradually slowed down, and he must have reached the bottom. When he reached the bottom, he put on his clothes.

There are things that interns cannot see, and naturally there are also things that are difficult for babies to notice.

Zhuci saw a faintly glowing font.

It was a suppressing rune with a line of small words underneath.

"Touch the rune to stay safe. Call me if you need help..."

The last three words suddenly became difficult to read. Zhu Ci endured the pain in his body, rushed forward, and stared at them for a while with a frown.

The font written on it is...

His surname is Shen, and his given name is Shen Xiaobai.

While Zhuci was thinking about it, the content on it changed again: I don't know how to pronounce it, you can also call me Shen Shifei.

This font is a bit naughty, how can it be changed freely?

This name is also weird. Does it mean to confuse right and wrong? Why can't he be called Shen Heibai?

Of course, now is not the time to dwell on this, Zhu Ci stretched out his hand and pressed down the talisman.

The most dangerous places are often accompanied by vitality.

Malicious games love to see players reaching out for their only hope at the last moment of their lives but failing to catch anything.

The moment the strange rune glowed, Zhu Ci took off his clothes to relieve the pain in his body.

He looked straight at the vortex.

The countless hands that grabbed him left mottled purple marks on his body, but at this moment their expressions were very terrified. They were sucked into the vortex, but there was a special phantom in the vortex. He had wide eyes and was smaller than all the children. He looked more like a wrinkled baby.

"You can see me, right?"

Amid the roaring sound of water, Zhuci could clearly hear his voice.

He did not respond at all, acting as if he had no idea. His pupils were not focused on him, but looked behind the phantom. There... seemed to be another world.

"You must be able to see me!" Seeing him like this, the baby became anxious, and his voice became more and more rapid. His mumbling sounded like curses one after another.

"You can see me! You can see me!"

"You can see me!"

His expression was extremely crazy, and his skin was pale and transparent, with countless wriggling blood vessels visible, just like the fleeting red line that Zhuci saw in the statue of the Virgin Mary.

…

Speech: “…” Really stubborn, what a pity.

The wrinkled baby came up and tried to grab him, and before the water was drained out, he actually touched Zhuci.

Zhu Ci put on his clothes, and the illusion stopped at the moment when the wrinkled hand touched him.

The pool gradually dried up.

…

Zhu Ci stood there with an unpleasant look on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

His entire body was soaked, and his wrinkled clothes stuck to his body, making him look even thinner. The exposed skin was covered with purple marks, as if he had been tortured.

It was originally difficult to see clearly underwater, but now there were water drops on his face and tears flowing from his right eye. People who didn't know the truth would really feel that he looked pitiful.

[“The anchor really had a narrow escape from death.”

"He is still alive, he is really lucky."

"No, is this underwater stripping and dressing action serious? Switching back and forth is a bug."

"But he is really good-looking. The more feral he is, the better-looking he is."

"Hahaha, isn't he just a pervert? I really hope I can match him with the anchor. Then I will do this and that to him."

"Upstairs, has the ranking entered the top 200?"】

…

"Greetings."

Someone called him.

Zhu Ci's mind was a little dazed. He had just been exposed to too much mental pollution and now he needed to calm down.

He turned around and saw two strangers.

A short-haired woman and a man looking at him curiously.

According to his plan, Mo Yangbing should come to rescue him.

Even if there were no life-saving runes under the water, Zhu Ci believed that he could hold on and then see if there were any items in the mall that could be used. In addition, if Mo Yangbing came to rescue him, he could find someone to drain the water from the pool.

"Where's Mo Yangbing?"

Meng Yuanzhou said, "My name is Meng Yuanzhou, her name is Li Xiaoyan, Mo Yangbing went to find someone to drain the water, but it seems that they won't be needed anymore."

Zhu Ci looked at the two players. They were also a combination of a nanny and a baby.

"Hello, my name is Zhuci." He spoke calmly.

"Hello, you're so wet, don't catch a cold, go change your clothes quickly." Meng Yuanzhou said.

Li Xiaoyan reminded him: "You won't catch a cold in the dungeon."

"It wouldn't be nice to get wet."

Cheers: "...Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

He was in a slightly low mood and could not properly investigate the background of these two players, nor did he have the energy to deal with them.

"Okay." Li Xiaoyan was very understanding.

…

At this moment, the system prompt sound suddenly rang.

[After testing, it was found that there was a bug in the copy. Now the rules have been changed. After the nanny takes off her clothes, another person must put them on before the camp can be changed. ]

This prompt sound startled all the players.

【“Is it because of the anchor?”

"The system is really a mess. I told you, the host just now was wearing and taking off clothes, and he couldn't even change his ghost expression."

“Hahahaha, without the anchor, can the system find the bug?”

"What should I do after this bug is fixed?"】

…

Zhuci also heard the voice. He lowered his eyes, with water droplets on his eyelashes, about to fall.

His weak but clear voice echoed in the room: "Changes are the same as no changes."

Meng Yuanzhou looked at him and asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

"There are dolls and clothes hangers for sale in the mall. Just take them off and put them on."

Meng Yuanzhou asked in confusion: "Didn't you say you want to put it on people?"

Zhu Ci sneered softly, and his pale face was unreadable: "Do you really think that all the clothes are put on people?"

After Zhu Ci's reminder, Li Xiaoyan and Meng Yuanzhou were not stupid. They quickly thought of the dead-looking player they saw by the pool in the afternoon.

No, it should be a dead person.

In this sense, clothes do not need to be put on living people.

As long as it is a "person", whether alive, dead, or fake, it should be fine.

The system emitted a "beep" sound at this time, but there was no further news.

Mo Yangbing, who had just returned and heard their conversation, said: "..."

He seemed to feel that the system was angered by the blessing.

Indeed, it is the same whether it is modified or not, and the mannequin is not expensive, so you can just buy one and put it by your side as a clothes hanger.

Well, after hearing the speech, this bug seems to be getting bigger.

【“???”

“It’s so funny.”

"Hahaha, the system shut itself down."

"They can indeed do this, take off all their clothes, hang themselves on the dummy, and go on strike. Whoever wants to be the nanny can be the nanny."

"Yeah, everyone is in one camp, and I guess they can't even distinguish the rooms."

"This loophole is huge."

"If that's the case, shouldn't the system just ban the dummies in the mall?"

"What kind of prop is a dummy? Why should it be banned?"】

However, for some unknown reason, the system did not modify the rules, nor did it prohibit players from purchasing dummies in the system store.

Zhu Ci walked out with his head down, his expression unchanged, as if he was not thinking about anything, but at the same time he seemed to be thinking about a lot of things.

Mo Yangbing supported him and said, "Are you okay?" He had just found the relevant NPC to help drain the water, but was told that the water had already been drained.

"Yeah." Zhu Ci responded softly.

He didn't want to look up at all.

His mental energy was a little confused, and he was afraid of seeing something he shouldn't see.

"Those two guys are from the Candlelight Guild. How are you connected to them?"

Zhu Ci said: "Oh, probably... someone entrusted me with this."

As for the Candlelight Guild, it might have something to do with an old friend of his parents.

"Do you want to deal with the water on your body first?"

It was a very strange thing. Their clothes dried very quickly in the afternoon, leaving no traces of water. But this time, Zhu Ci seemed to have really come into contact with the water after he put his whole body in it, so he was so wet.

Zhuci said with a "tsk". "How to deal with it? Take off all of them?"

Mo Yangbing coughed dryly and asked, "Did you bring another set of clothes?"

"no."

"Clothes dry faster in the dungeon, an hour is enough. If that doesn't work, look for a spin dryer or clothes dryer in the mall. The live broadcast room will protect the privacy of players. Go back to your room, take off your clothes and wrap yourself in a blanket."

Zhu Ci raised his head and looked around. He always felt that something was staring at him.

"Okay." He took off his nanny clothes and gave them to Mo Yangbing.

"You should stay in the room tonight too." Zhu Ci took out a work code and handed it to him.

Things placed in the space will not get wet, so the work rules are fine.

"Here you go. The nanny should not walk around at night."

As he was giving his speech, he suddenly shut his mouth.

The scene before his eyes could be described as a riot of demons. In his sight were a chaotic and bizarre array of pictures, and there were also densely packed ghosts squatting on the side of the road that looked like stone pillars.

Zhu Ci could hardly tell whether this was a real ghost or just a mixture of his imagination.

His current condition is worse than being blind.

Congratulations: "..."

What happened? Was it because of the contact with the baby in the vortex?

Everyone in the live broadcast room was shocked by Ling Luan's speech.

[“What the hell?”

“I’ve never seen such an unstable situation.”

"Even Mo Yangbing's crazy perspective isn't this intense and terrifying. My sanity is dropping like crazy even through the screen."】

Seeing him stunned, Mo Yangbing stopped and looked at him: "What's wrong?"

"Is it almost evening?" Zhu Ci asked.

"Yes, it's getting dark."

Zhu Ci held his forehead and sighed. He said, "Give me the clothes."

You have to send it out again just after putting it on.

Mo Yangbing still gave the clothes away.

After putting on the clothes, Zhu Ci felt better.

Everything in front of me is still clean.

But switching perspectives back and forth made his head hurt even more.

"Shen Xiaobai." He suddenly called out.

Mo Yangbing suddenly frowned and looked at him in shock: "What did you just say?"

"The name of the official employee of this dungeon."

In Zhu Ci's eyes, a phantom with a faint golden glow appeared beside him.

I can't see the specific appearance clearly.

Is this a formal employee who can be called upon whenever there is danger?

Mo Yangbing looked down at the intern work rules he had received.

It does say that regular employees should be called in case of an emergency, but how did Zhuci know their names?

Zhu Ci whispered, "Is there any way to eliminate the negative effects of the pill?"

As he gave his speech, he felt his palms itching, as if a hand was writing on them.

"without."

"Can that be mitigated?"

The other person gently grasped his hand, spread it out, and drew a rune on the palm of his hand.

Mo Yangbing couldn't see what was happening from Zhu Ci's perspective, nor could he see the rune.

[“What is this? Regular employees can help draw talismans?”

“Something just doesn’t feel right.”

"It should be the characteristic of the dungeon."

"No, did you hear the host call your name just now?"

"no."

"I started following the host from his first live broadcast. In the last live broadcast, the name he called was blurred."

"Maybe the game blocks key information from the outside. What if you are matched?"

"Didn't they say that the chance of matching in the copies we've seen is almost zero?"

"In fact, not every copy will be put back into use."】

…

Zhu Ci didn't know about their discussion. He just treated the live broadcast room as non-existent. Occasionally, some people would spend money to give gifts to show their presence.

In fact, Zhuci now has a lot of points, and he should really thank the audience.

Zhu Ci thought for a moment, took off his clothes and gave them to Mo Yangbing: "Your talent is easily affected by the spirit, so I'll give it to you tonight. I won't be able to move tonight."

Sleeping is good for restoring mental strength, and his current condition is not suitable for action.

Mo Yangbing nodded in agreement. When he watched Zhu Ci's live broadcast before, he was from a God's perspective. At that time, he didn't think that Zhu Ci's ability to pass the copy was so strong, until now.

He felt that Zhuci's current level of control over this copy might be higher than Andy's.

Zhu Ci returned to the room.

Wu Yi stayed in the room and saw Zhu Ci was wet. He stood up and asked, "Zhu Ci, are you okay?"

"Um."

Zhu Ci glanced around subconsciously, and for some reason, he found that the phantom did not leave him.

After the rune was drawn on him, his mental state improved a lot. The rune was slowly taking effect, but it would take time for it to take effect.

When everything was blurry, the regular employee hooked his little finger and led him forward.

In the chaotic and dark colors, this guy is the only light.

Why is it just the pinky finger that is hooked? You can grab the wrist or pull the clothes.

But why do formal employees have no form?

If they move from interns to full-time employees, will they also become disembodied persons?

Zhu Ci's brain was thinking at high speed, but his head was hurting more and more, and his vision was getting darker.

A hand suddenly stroked his head, as if to help him clear away the distracting thoughts in his mind.

Maybe, formal nannies are just this gentle and will be better to children?

In this situation, he returned to where he lived.

…

"In the afternoon, I played with toys with that big guy..." Wu Yi wanted to share his discovery in the afternoon with him, but Zhu Si couldn't hear anything now.

This is also the reason why Mo Yangbing didn't tell him too much.

But Zhu Ci did not tell Wu Yi that he did not listen. Instead, he sat on the bed and pretended to listen.

Then he handed the other party the employee code of conduct.

"You'd better carry it. I need to change my clothes."

"Okay, okay." Wu Yi nodded, took the paper and turned around.

Zhu Ci glanced at the bright shadow next to him, and awkwardly found an expensive dryer in the mall, placed it next to the bed, then pulled the quilt over him, buried himself in it, and took off his clothes.

On the huge bed, there was a bulge in the quilt, and then a white and tender arm stretched out from the quilt, and several pieces of clothes were thrown out.

Shadow: “…”

Zhu Ci didn't notice that several pieces of clothes were almost thrown out, but they were stopped by a force and sent into the dryer.

He didn't finish his speech because, to be honest, he felt ashamed.

A head popped out from under the quilt.

Zhu Ci's hair was a little messy, his eyes were shining, the quilt wrapped around his whole body, not even his back was exposed. Then he looked around again to make sure no one was peeking, the phantom was gone, Wu Yi had been turning his back to him, he seemed to be relieved.

There aren't that many requirements for the boys' dormitory, but outside the dormitory, there are factors such as live streaming and gaming, so he inevitably has to consider more.

In fact, the live broadcast room has been closed. They have done a good job in protecting the privacy of the anchor.
