After confirming the identity, the next step is to configure the props.
To be honest, Jiang Qiong's account doesn't have many props, because after he earns Dream Tickets, he likes to buy things to decorate his house and show the effect to his fans...
All the dream coupons were spent on decoration, so naturally there were not many props to buy. So at this time, Jiang Yan saw only a few props lying in the backpack: a fruit knife, a capsule, Lillian's skirt, a peach wood sword (normal size version), and a yellow talisman.
The capsule can only be used on humans, and the user will be weak for one minute.
After seeing this introduction, Jiang Yan couldn't help but think, when the player who is a "ghost" has not yet transformed into a "ghost" form, he exists as a "human", so is the capsule still useful to him at this time?
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Isn't it better not to bring the capsule? Doesn't it only work on humans?"
Someone in the team immediately responded, "Yeah! Thanks, buddy! I would have taken it if you hadn't told me!"
Another person even shouted directly: "Humans, don't bring capsules! It's a waste of space! Anyone who brings them is a ghost!"
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Jiang Yan stopped talking and placed the remaining items in his own grid. After all, he was a ghost and could not use the props after entering. He was just pretending.
However, even without the capsule to worry about, he still needed to be careful of other people's peach wood swords and yellow talismans.
The peach wood sword can do much more damage to ghosts than a fruit knife. If a ghost is pierced in the heart or between the eyebrows by the peach wood sword, it will die instantly. And if the yellow talisman is stuck on the ghost, it will be immobilized for 6 seconds. If these two things are combined, the ghost can basically be killed.
Not to mention that others might have other props against ghosts that he doesn't know about.
The countdown ended quickly, and with a "bang", everyone who was playing the game for the first time saw a cutscene.
Twelve classmates set out together at dusk with smiles on their faces, heading to an ancient Jiangnan house with a long history for a few days of investigation.
The bus swayed, and several people chatted and laughed until a Taoist priest in a yellow robe and with gray hair boarded. He held an eight-diagram mirror in his hand and a peach wood sword slung across his back. He glanced fiercely at the twelve people on the bus and shook his head, "It's time...it's fate..."
The twelve people looked at each other, and one of the boys stepped forward to ask the Taoist priest why he said that.
The Taoist looked at him deeply and sighed, "I just returned from that ancient house yesterday with a disappointing experience. It's incredibly dangerous. How could I possibly let anyone in to investigate now? I'm afraid someone has deliberately lured you in."
The boy's expression turned particularly grim. They had indeed received an invitation letter before setting off. The invitation letter was signed by the 22nd generation inheritor of this ancient Jiangnan town...
"Old man, do you have any solution?" another girl asked with a pale face, holding the iron bar in front of her tightly with both hands.
The Taoist stroked his beard and shook his head again: "The karma has begun, and I have no choice but to go now. This journey is dangerous, and it is not for me to interfere. Remember, the people you thought were traveling with you have long since changed."
As he finished speaking, the bus stopped at the stop in front of the old house. It was already dark outside, and everyone's faces changed drastically. They looked at each other with suspicion...
As soon as the animation ended, the twelve players were loaded into this ancient Jiangnan house.
They stood together, with an altar in front of them. A yellow silk cloth was spread across the altar, and on top of it was a small copper-yellow incense burner with two handles. The burner was filled with incense ash, and three burnt incense sticks were stuck on it.
“Although this house is old, it is quite nice.”
Beside Jiang Yan, a girl wearing a blue short T-shirt and white short jeans and with the ID "Little Kitty Meow Meow" spoke.
"We are going to go on a mission now, right? Together or separately?" This was the voice of the leopard-headed man. He now looked like a dark-skinned, strong man who looked very powerful.
"Let's group three together and split into four. It will be safer this way." said the yellow-haired man. His nickname was "I Don't Want to Work Overtime". His voice was gentle, which was somewhat inconsistent with his randomly assigned rebellious yellow-haired image.
The rest of the people had no objection.
Jiang Yan was assigned to the same group as "Jiliguala" and "Da Zhuang Shuai Ah", the pink-haired girl and the leopard-headed man. Although they have now changed into their normal appearance in the game, the memories left by them are still very vivid.
"Hello, just call me Xiaoxiang. Whose task shall we do first?" said the pink-haired girl Xiaoxiang. As she spoke, she observed the two teammates assigned to her.
Ever since she found out about the identity she had drawn, she has been very nervous, but she has to pretend that everything is normal.
"Then you can just call me Xiao Shuai. Hey, I'm not taking advantage of you, my name has the word 'Shuai' in it."
The leopard-headed man, now handsome, scratched his head in response. He loved to laugh, and he grinned after he finished speaking. He looked quite relaxed, and it seemed that the identity he got did not bring him any pressure. He might be a human being.
Jiang Yan thought about it and introduced himself: "Jiang Yan, just call me normal. I don't mind whose mission you do."
The three people have their own thoughts. Although they walk together, they are probably not very united. This game is destined to make everyone suspicious of each other.
Fortunately, this situation does not only exist in their group of three, but also in several other groups. They seem to be joking and chatting harmoniously, but they don't know whether the people around them are human or ghost.
The old house was huge, with long corridors connecting and separating the rooms. Red lanterns hung from the ceiling of each corridor, and through the fan-shaped windows dug out in the corridor, one could see what was happening on both sides. Everyone had already started to move.
The three of them finally decided to sort the tasks according to their distance from the mission points. Everyone could check the map of the ancient house, which showed their own location and mission points. Xiaoxiang had a mission that was relatively close, so they went there first.
Walking right from the courtyard with the incense burner and entering a long corridor, Xiaoxiang asked, "What props did you all bring?"
"I brought a peach wood sword, a yellow talisman, money to buy my life, and a head covered in snow." Xiao Shuai answered her very directly, but because his answer was too direct, Jiang Yan had new doubts about his identity in her heart.
For humans, exposing their props so early is not a good thing, because it will allow the ghosts to prepare...
So is this person simply not thinking that much, or does he have another identity?
He was thinking silently, while Xiaoxiang and Xiaoshuai chatted casually: "You actually have the money to buy your life?! That prop is so expensive! And the snow-capped head can only be obtained by winning a lottery! Boss!"
Life Money: Pay a lump sum to buy a life. This is a one-time consumable item that automatically activates when you receive a fatal attack. It blocks a fatal attack and teleports you to a random location.
[I feel dizzy and can't tell what's going on.]
[I think Xiaoxiang and Xiaoshuai are both human. The host is looking for an opportunity to transform and go on a killing spree!]
[It's not a good idea to act too quickly, is it? Observe carefully and don't accidentally kill your teammates. It will be very difficult to win then.]
【I doubt everyone, leave me alone! 】
