[It's definitely not a bug, but I don't know how it was arranged. Isn't this too sudden? ]
Amid the players' discussion, a white progress bar appeared in front of each player. The progress bar went from 0 to 99, then paused and turned to 100.
Afterwards, the Dream-Eating Tapir’s live broadcast pop-up window also appeared, without giving players any option to close it. Everyone was forced to enter the Dream-Eating Tapir’s live broadcast room.
On the live broadcast interface, the Dream-Eating Tapir sat at his desk, surrounded by black and purple clouds that clearly represented anger.
It whispered, "I have some very unfortunate news to share with you all. The 'rare treasure' that was originally scheduled to be auctioned at our anniversary auction disappeared this night!"
Using the power of dreams, we successfully tracked down some clues, but due to our identities, we are unable to go in person to retrieve our "rare treasures".
Therefore, I solemnly invite all of you to become our bank's 'treasure hunters'. At the same time, I promise that as long as you can help us recover our 'rare treasures', we will give them to you free of charge. In addition, you will permanently enjoy the highest treatment in our subsequent auctions and receive a 20% refund on the transaction amount!
[Oh shit.]
【I am really stupid now.】
I'm in! I'm in!
[What's the point of not participating? Don't you see? Everyone is invited, all competitors, come and fight! ]
[No, could you please announce the clues you found?]
What does it mean to be restricted by your status and unable to go in person?
【Oh my god, I thought of something! 】
[Damn, I thought of that too!]
[You don't mean...? ]
I think so.
What's the riddle? Are you still family?
[It used to be, but it’s not anymore.]
Just when players were discussing it heatedly, the Dream-Eating Tapir finally released information about the "rare treasure", but even now, it has not told everyone what the "rare treasure" is.
The information released only stated that this "rare treasure" had an ability called "precognition".
Then, everything went black before the players' eyes, and everyone was thrown back into their own small rooms. The system's voice came to their ears:
"Congratulations to all players on successfully starting the quest - Treasure Hunt Adventure! On the way to treasure, there may be surprises, but more will definitely be hardships. Before setting off, don't forget to check the final message from Mr. Dream-Eating Tapir. I wish you all - good luck."
message?
The players quickly opened their phones in the game and found a red dot in the upper right corner of the speaker pattern in the lower left corner. When they clicked on it, they saw the latest message from Mr. Dream-Eating Tapir, whose avatar was a purple heart.
"Dear treasure hunters, I'm very sorry. The loss of the treasure is such a big deal that I can't calm down, so I have to make this decision. Everything is for the treasure to be found as soon as possible.
After you listen to my message, the mission timer will begin. The person who finds the treasure the fastest will naturally be able to get all the rewards I mentioned before. But if no one finds the treasure within 30 hours, I am very sorry, but I will issue a bounty order for you all, and no matter where you are, you will continue to be attacked by ghosts.
I am truly sorry for this decision, and please forgive me for having to do it."
【……】
【ah?】
【Not my friend, you? 】
[Big Boss, help me! ]
[Fuck, the timer has really started! ]
【30 hours seems like real time! 】
[So what? I have no idea how to handle this mission now.]
[It doesn't look like it's anxious, because although it has set up a punishment mechanism to 'motivate' us, it hasn't revealed any clues.]
[The clue has been revealed, huh? You idiots.]
【???】
[Where? Where is the clue? ]
[…Forget it. Anyway, there's bound to be someone out there who's just looking for chaos. I'll just say it straight out. As NPCs in the Ghost Market, the only place the Dream-Eating Tapirs can't go is outside of the Ghost Market, right?]
[I see. Besides the ghost market, we also have to exclude the players' houses and the arena. So... the treasure is hidden in the dungeon?!]
Are you crazy? We have to clear all the dungeons in 30 hours?
[How about you take a look at the current dungeon selection interface first? ]
[Fuck! I took a look, didn't choose, and exited. When will it be updated?!]
[No, there aren't any posters or short films, and they just updated the new dungeon without any hesitation?!]
[It should have been recently updated, because this option didn't exist when I entered the dungeon before the treasure hunt began.]
Soon, almost all players knew the location of the treasure. It was a new dungeon!
The official also quickly released the posters and short films that had been kept hidden.
The treasure hunt poster is drawn in the form of a treasure map, starting from the cute little house in the lower left corner and ending at the red cross in the upper right corner in front of another house.
The copy name at the top of the poster is in artistic font with white edges, giving it a feeling of text from the magical age, and the white dotted adventure route is also marked with many simple icons.
The icons of houses, cornfields, schools, etc. are small and cute, and each one is followed by a white question mark, representing a mystery.
