Chapter 129 Sequence Event? I've never heard of it.
"bite."
The message alert sounded.
It was the early morning of January 16th. Anson Deer opened his eyes and looked at the information bubble that appeared in the upper right corner of his vision.
【Yuri: Happy birthday. 】
Four words, no more information, the usual style of Icelandic girls.
Anson Lu got up from the bed, stretched out his finger dazedly, typed a line of words on the panel, and clicked send.
[Anson Deer: My Icelandic classmate, how did you know that today is my birthday? ]
Yuri didn't reply.
Maybe he fell asleep again after sending the message, or maybe he started to get busy.
Anson Lu opened the friend panel and took a look at the status of the guild members in the list.
Crow is playing a survival copy; Asuka is playing a confrontation copy; Yuri is playing a three-ring structure copy; Chu Qimo is playing a cooperative challenge copy.
Among them, players are strictly prohibited from using the "Friend Panel" when entering survival and confrontation copies.
Because doing so will most likely violate the rules of the copy.
As for the three-ring copy, it is a similar mode to the previous [Return to Titanic] copy - some links disable the friend panel, while some links do not need to restrict the "friend panel".
"Asleep?"
Anson Lu stared at Yuri's status in the friend panel and closed the chat panel while muttering.
“Boom—”
“Dongdong——”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
“Here I come.”
Anson Lu closed the friend panel, jumped off the bed with a "thump", walked over in two or three steps, and opened the door.
There are three faces.
Julius was in front, Cosimo and Kamishiro Ruri were behind.
Their attire is very fixed: Julius likes to wear a black windbreaker; Cosimo wears white short-sleeved shirts and shorts; Kamishiro Ruri wears a light pink kimono.
Yuliu said calmly: "These two people came to you and said they have something to discuss."
"Hey, chess player brother."
Kamishiro Ruri smiled and waved her fan.
"cut."
Cosimo's face was full of dissatisfaction and he pouted.
Anson Lu suspected that the two men had ill intentions, and he asked helplessly, "What do you two want to do?"
To be honest, there were so many people to queue up for a dungeon with, but these two were the ones who left the worst impression on him in the law enforcement team.
"We were exploring the city this morning and encountered a sequence event." Kamishiro Ruri covered her mouth with a fan and briefly introduced the purpose of her visit:
"But this sequence of events requires four people to carry out, so..."
What are sequence events?
I've never heard of it.
Anson Deer looked puzzled, "Ah...sequence events?"
"Huh?" Cosimo was stunned. "You are the best in the world, how come you have never heard of sequence events?"
Anson Deer shrugged, "Oh, I'm number one in the world, what does that have to do with me not having heard of it?"
"Sequence events are events that can only be triggered by players with special sequences. Each special sequence has a chance to generate a corresponding sequence event when entering a cooperative challenge instance or a three-ring instance."
"Oh..." Anson Lu suddenly realized, "I see."
If you think about it this way, he also triggered a sequence of events - when he was on the Titanic, he played a game of chess with the ghost and got the "floating fish in the tank" and the "Arctic chessboard" from the ghost.
Even if it's a three-ring copy...
Anson Lu really didn't expect that such events would exist in cooperative challenge dungeons. In the past, he had been either fighting monsters or slacking off and sleeping, which was a real waste of time that could have been used for exploration.
However, since the generation of sequence events is probabilistic, that is to say, the sequence events generated in Tokyo may be "Cyber Strike", "Kamiyo Sakura Sword", "Devouring Arm", or "Old Chess Player".
Anson Lu thought thoughtfully: "Do you know whose sequence event it is?"
"Who knows?" Cosimo said impatiently.
Anson Deer asked again: "What about the location of the incident?"
"In the underground of Tokyo, a subway train on the Ginza Line." Kamishiro Ruri said with a smile.
"Oh, so it seems like that..." Anson Lu said, "It's most likely an event from the 'Cyber Assault' sequence. As for the subway, if you think about it, it's all related to Cosimo's sequence."
When he said this, with an expression that said "please I'll go with you", he looked at Cosimo quietly.
Cosimo's eye twitched, and he said unhappily, "Your analysis is too far-fetched! How can the subway be related to cyber? In this case, can't it also be associated with the 'Devouring Arm'?!"
"Ah, I'm more looking forward to the 'Peerless Sakura Blade' sequence event." Kamishiro Ruri smiled with her hands covering her mouth. "But no matter whose sequence event it is, you can get rewards as long as you participate."
"Okay, let's go." Anson Lu glanced at his phone, "But...will we be in time? A monster will appear at noon."
Yuliu, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly said, "The monster will appear at 12 noon. It's 6 o'clock now, so there are still 6 hours left, which should be enough for us to solve this incident."
“Hmph…” Cosimo snorted coldly and said disdainfully: “If it weren’t for the fact that sequence events must have the corresponding sequence players present to trigger, otherwise, I would never have asked you to cooperate.”
"Idiot." Kamishiro Ruri suddenly cursed.
"Oh?" Anson Lu raised his eyebrows, smiled and said, "This means that this sequence of events is from the 'Old Chess Player' or the 'Devouring Arm'. It seems that the initiative is in our hands."
"Who, who said that!" Cosimo realized belatedly.
“You.”
“Hey…” Kamishiro Ruri held her forehead with her hand, “So, I don’t want to queue up for a dungeon with this little brat.”
"You can continue to argue, but it's getting late. I suggest you talk on the way."
Yuliu finished speaking and walked towards the elevator.
Anson put his hands in his pockets and followed Julian's back silently, as if he didn't want to argue with Cosimo anymore.
"Be careful with your words next time." Kamishiro Ruri tapped Cosimo's shoulder with her fan and taught him a lesson: "Don't always reveal information that is unfavorable to you. If you can't do that, just say less."
"Come on, are you my mother?"
Cosimo stood up unhappily and walked towards the elevator.
"The captain asked me to take good care of you. After all, you are his brother."
"Okay, I'll be more careful next time," Cosimo paused, and suddenly said, "By the way, do you think... that guy is a little weird today?" He added, "Although, he's just as mean as usual."
Kamishiro Ruri glanced at Ansemuro's back.
"A chess player?"
"Um."
Kamishiro Ruri put away her fan, her beautiful eyes thoughtful, "I don't know, maybe something sad happened to him."
Half an hour later, Tokyo Metro, Ginza Line.
The incandescent lights in the dome emitted a cold light, covering the empty seats, ticket counters, and platforms.
At this time, a silver-white train was parked on the subway track. As four figures approached, a huge panel appeared on the side of the train with eye-catching red text on it.
[Special event name: Subway Crisis]
[Special event requirements: 4 players (one of which must be a specific player)]
[Difficulty of special events: high.]
[Special event rewards: unknown. ]
[Cost of event failure: unknown.]
[Current number of participants: 0/4]
"Why are there so many unknowns..." Anson Lu glanced at the panel and hesitated for half a second. He turned back and glanced at the three people, "How about forget it?"
Mainly, judging from the name, this sequence of events shouldn't be that simple.
The cost of failure is still unknown, and it cannot be confirmed whether anyone will die.
"Forget it? The reward looks very high, okay?" Cosimo was shocked.
"If this sequence of events has nothing to do with me, you would say: 'Oh, then go away, I'll find another player.'" Anson Lu raised his eyebrows and said calmly:
"It seems that this is the sequence event of 'The Old Chess Player'."
Cosimo was stunned for a moment, his mouth twitched, and he was suddenly speechless.
"Yes, these are all your sequence events. It would be a shame to miss them," Kamishiro Ruri said quickly to smooth things over.
"I'm not in the mood. How about coming back tomorrow?" Anson Lu said, "Besides, there are so many unknowns. If someone dies in this incident, it will be very troublesome."
Seeing Anson Lu was so unmotivated, Yuliu also said, "Logically speaking... the rewards for sequence events are usually much richer than those for ordinary special events."
"Okay, let's go then."
Anson Deer reached out and touched the surface of the train, and the numbers on the panel changed.
[Current number of participants: 1/4]
Seeing that he was so decisive, Julius, Cosimo and Kamishiro Ruri naturally did not hesitate and reached out to touch the surface of the train.
【Current number of participants: 4/4】
The next second, the door of carriage No. 12 opened.
The inside of the subway car was the same as the outside, still empty. The cold light of light blue enveloped the car, making everything inside seem quiet and eerie.
The structure of Tokyo's subway cars is similar to that of the cars around Beijing.
As for the differences in the structures of the two carriages - the seats in Tokyo's carriages are made of soft sofas and there is heating in winter. Secondly, there is a row of racks in the subway for passengers to place their bags.
In addition, there are many hanging rings in the carriage, and the handles are at different heights, so as to facilitate use by people of different heights and take into account the elderly, the disabled, and so on.
Anson Lu took the lead and stepped into the subway with an expressionless face.
The other three people also quickly stepped into the subway, and then the subway door closed.
[The sequence event - "Subway Crisis" officially begins. ]
【Begin to introduce event rules. 】
[Rule 1: 55 citizens will be introduced from Tokyo's alternate dimension as the 'passengers' of this event. ]
[Rule 2: The old chess player will have the right to control some of the passengers in the carriage, as well as the other three players. ]
[Rule 3: During the event, all players cannot use any skills, and the luggage space is emptied, but the luggage of the three players will have an extra 'special item'. ]
[Rule 4: The old chess player himself will not be killed, and he cannot touch anything in the subway.]
[Rule 5: Monsters...are about to appear. ]
[Event completion conditions: At least 2 players and 20 citizens survive in the subway successfully (if the event is completed, the first 30 citizens who died will be resurrected, and all dead players will also be resurrected). ]
[Cost of event failure: All players and citizens who die in the subway will truly die.]
Anson Deer was stunned for two seconds.
When he turned his head, Cosimo, Julius, and Kamishiro Ruri were unable to move or even speak, but there were still expressions on their faces, and it seemed that they were conscious.
However, until the incident is over, they will become Anson Deer's pawns.
