A few minutes later, the players gradually arrived in the living room.
Xiao Jin glanced around and saw that there were only 12 people. It was already 11:30, past the time the butler had said for the meeting, so the rest of the people probably wouldn't come.
Clearly, most players chose to participate. As for the rest, it's not fair to say they're stupid; Xiao Jin can only wish them good luck!
"Da da da!"
The crisp sound of leather shoes tapping on marble suddenly rang out, and the players sat up straight.
It's here!
The next second, the butler came down the stairs.
The villa has three floors. The first floor contains only the living room, kitchen, storage room, and dining room. The players live on the second floor, and there is only a third floor; no one knows what's on the third floor.
According to conventional thinking, that should be the master's room, but the butler, as a servant, actually came down from the third floor!
The butler remained unchanged; compared to the yawning player, his clothes were completely wrinkle-free.
He glanced at everyone in the living room, a strange smile playing on his lips: "Very good, it seems all of you guests are looking forward to the next game."
The players silently rolled their eyes. What a load of rubbish!
"Now that everyone is here, I will explain things to our guests."
Both sides tacitly avoided mentioning the six players still in the bedroom.
Butler: "The games will start promptly at 12 o'clock. There are two main types: a multiplayer mode called 'Four Corners Game' and a single-player mode called 'Bloody Mary.' Guests can choose either one to participate in."
Those who complete the game will receive a gift carefully selected by the host.
【bite--】
The moment the butler finished speaking, the players in the living room almost simultaneously heard the notification sound in their ears, and everyone opened the information panel.
[Ding—Congratulations, player, you have triggered the side quest: The Villa Owner's Game.]
Complete the game to receive 1000 points and 1 sheepskin map fragment.
Game Instructions:
1. Four Corners Game: (Optional)
Number of participants: 4
rule:
1. At midnight, choose a rectangular empty room and turn off all the lights.
2. The four people stand in the four corners of the room, facing the corners of the walls, and do not look behind them.
3. At the start of the game, one person in one corner walks to another corner and gently taps the person in front of them on the shoulder. The person who was tapped then walks to the other corner in the same way and taps the next person on the shoulder.
5. If you come to a corner where no one is around, cough once, then walk past the corner and continue walking until you see the next person.
Note: Please refrain from loud noises during the game. The game is considered won by default when the fourth round ends.
II. Bloody Mary: (Optional)
Number of participants: 1
rule:
1. Enter the bathroom alone, lock the door and turn off the lights.
2. Face a mirror and light a candle between yourself and the mirror, or light a candle on each side of the mirror.
3. Then close your eyes, concentrate, and slowly say "Bloody Mary" three times.
Note: Do not open your eyes during the game, no matter what sound you hear. Maintain this position for 5 minutes; the game is considered complete then.
It's a psychic game?
Most players have probably heard of these two games. While the former seems to have helpers in its multiplayer mode, in reality, too many things can happen during the game.
If one player makes a mistake, there is a high chance that all four players will be wiped out. Therefore, if you want to participate in a multiplayer game, you must find reliable teammates first.
The second one, "Bloody Mary," is actually the most difficult one, even though it carries less risk for solo players.
Early morning, bathroom, candle, mirror, and summoning spirits—these keywords combined are nothing short of a bombshell.
The atmosphere is extremely terrifying. In addition, since people always rely on vision, when their eyes are closed, players' senses will be magnified infinitely. They will become nervous and even have wild thoughts at the slightest sound.
Unfortunately, you can't see it and don't know if there is really any danger.
If you can't resist opening your eyes, ha! Game over. If you don't open your eyes, who knows if a vengeful ghost is about to seize you in the darkness?
The players all looked solemn.
Although they had anticipated it, it was precisely the kind of supernatural entity they least wanted to encounter. The reward of a full 1000 points was enough to demonstrate the risks involved.
Giving up is impossible now. The housekeeper said last night that once you come, you can't leave.
None of them had the courage to challenge the butler's dignity, so they could only try to choose the easier game between the two!
Xiao Jin had a good memory and quickly memorized the rules of the two games. Then, her gaze swept over the system rewards and focused on the sheepskin map fragments at the back.
She lowered her brows, lost in thought.
Just as the players were hesitating about which of the two to choose, Xiao Jin suddenly spoke up.
"Can I participate in both?"
The voice wasn't loud, but its clear tone resonated deeply in everyone's ears.
Everyone was taken aback, and Sui Feng also looked puzzled. But then he seemed to have thought of something and quickly shouted, "That's right, I'm interested in both games. It's too difficult to choose. Can we play them both?"
The players' expressions changed from astonishment to confusion, their gazes shifting aimlessly between Xiao Jin and Sui Feng.
What's going on with those two? Did they discover something?
Sui Ying then punched her older brother in the chest muscle, yelling, "Are you stupid? What are you talking about?!"
"Don't cause trouble." Sui Feng pressed Sui Ying down.
Xiao Jin glanced at Sui Feng, then turned her head to wait for the butler's reply.
The butler's expression froze for a moment, as if he had never heard such a request before. Then he looked away, seemingly communicating with someone from afar.
Xiao Jin witnessed this scene.
After a while, the butler's gaze suddenly met in mid-air, and a different expression appeared on his face.
He smiled and looked at Xiao Jin: "Honorable guests, the host is aware of your request, and she is pleased with your eagerness for the game."
"You can participate in both games at the same time, and the host will give double the reward to the person who completes the game."
2000 points!!
Upon hearing this, the other players' breathing became heavier, and a hint of excitement visibly appeared in their eyes. Their previous aversion to the game began to gradually change.
Perhaps there really is a problem here! Since the system has given the option to participate in two games at the same time, there must be a way to complete the game.
Money is a powerful motivator! Besides, in a survival game, nothing is more important than points!
Even Sui Ying was biting her lip, looking down as if she was thinking about something!
