Chapter 75 There is an Abnormality (Please order first)
The headquarters building of Irene Group has a total of 12 floors, and the entire second floor is the employee cafeteria.
At this time, at the entrance of the empty cafeteria, two men walked in side by side.
The two men were both about 185cm tall. One of them was thin, with neatly combed short hair and gold-rimmed glasses. His white shirt and grey trousers were ironed without a wrinkle. At first glance, he looked gentle and refined, like a company executive.
The other person had a muscular body and his hair was shaved close to his scalp. He wore a loose short-sleeved T-shirt with the sleeves rolled up above his shoulders, revealing a corner of a tattoo on his shoulder, which seemed to be Gaara's gourd.
The tall and thin gentleman is called Gu Jinxing. His current player level is lv3 and his agility attribute is maxed out.
The burly man with tattoos is called Hu Jiayao. His current player level is lv2, with main strength and armor attributes.
The company stipulates that the noon working time is 12 o'clock, and the cafeteria opens at 11:30. It is now 11:35. The dining area is empty, and the employees in the ordering area have already taken their positions, holding food bowls and putting them towards the ordering port with a "clang clang" sound.
The two men each took a plate and walked towards the ordering counter, one after the other.
On the way, Hu Jiayao was unhappy and complained to the people around him in a low voice: "We have finished sweeping the two floors we are responsible for, but we found nothing except a few low-level hidden props. We worked for nothing for the whole morning."
Gu Jinxing looked calm, "Sweep the remaining two floors this afternoon and then take a look."
Hu Jiayao said impatiently, "Looking at the mission description, the clues must be obtained from the strategy character. Now we can't get any clues. We are running around like headless flies, and we don't know what to do. Isn't this a waste of time?"
Gu Jinxing glanced at his companions and said, "This is the arrangement of the president. According to the contract, we have no choice. Besides, if we don't scan the pictures, we don't have anything else to do."
That is true.
In fact, Hu Jiayao is not averse to scanning maps. On the contrary, when he played games in the past, he really liked exploring the map because he could pick up hidden equipment and props and gain experience.
But the problem is that now they have joined the [Wen Na] Guild. According to the contract, all the items they find must be handed in and confiscated, which is very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Hu Jiayao couldn't help but complain: "We are both awesome players who leveled up right after the first trial map came out. We are willing to join a small guild that is still in the trial period. It is already a great honor for the guild. Instead of being grateful, they made us sign such an unequal contract."
At this point, Hu Jiayao snorted coldly, with a bit of resentment, and glanced at the person next to him, "I really can't understand why we have to sign it? That spirit doll is indeed scary, but we can handle it ourselves, it's not completely hopeless, right? Now, I've signed this membership contract and put all my future property into it."
Although Hu Jiayao and Gu Jinxing look very different, they are actually cousins outside the game.
The two brothers grew up together. Hu Jiayao is good at fighting but has no brains, while Gu Jinxing is calm and has always helped him escape danger at critical moments since he was a child.
So although Hu Jiayao was reckless, he obeyed Gu Jinxing's words.
Just now at the refresh point, Gu Jinxing said that they should hand over the soul doll to the man named Ye Jiu, and then sign the membership contract with the other party. No matter how much Hu Jiayao couldn't understand, he still obeyed.
However, the more I think about this matter, the more it seems wrong.
"No, Ah Xing, all those who can match to this map are newcomers. No matter how awesome our guild leader is, he is just a level 5 bronze player. Why do you think he can deal with six characters and six soul dolls by himself?"
Gu Jinxing shook his head, "First ask if it is, then ask why."
Hu Jiayao frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Why are you so sure that I believe he can definitely handle six soul puppets?"
"Are you playing a tongue twister with me? Can you speak human language?"
Gu Jinxing was somewhat helpless and patiently explained: "He doesn't have to succeed -
"According to the rules on the public screen at the refresh point, the soul doll can only be transferred before the main mission begins. In other words, once we successfully hand over the soul doll to Ye Jiu, we will no longer have to worry about being troubled by the target of the strategy in subsequent missions.
“Because the main quest has already begun, Ye Jiu can’t return the goods.
“You’ve also seen the game instructions. This time, the main quest score has nothing to do with the character’s strategy level. So even if Ye Jiu can’t handle our character, it’s him who is restrained by the soul thread and triggers the anti-Tian Gang plot. It has nothing to do with us.
“That is to say, once we get rid of the most difficult soul dolls, we can pass the level regardless of whether the player who transfers it to us succeeds or not.
"As for Ye Jiu...
“To be honest, I don’t think he can successfully walk out of this map with six soul dolls.
“If the president dies or loses his capacity to act, the guild will automatically disband, and our contract will become a piece of waste paper.
"It's like we're exchanging a piece of waste paper for a ticket to the Level 5 map. Why not?"
Hearing this, Hu Jiayao finally understood and gave a thumbs up to the people around him, "So that's how it is, this trick is powerful!"
But after praising him, Hu Jiayao felt that there was a big problem -
"That's not right. What if... I mean, what if Ye Jiu really succeeds in clearing the level?"
Hearing this question, Gu Jinxing raised his head, and the light reflected from his glasses flashed by, "If that's the case, then we won the first prize and made a lot of money!"
Hu Jiayao didn't understand, "Are you kidding?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"I'm serious," Gu Jinxing said, "If a level 5 can handle 6 soul puppets at the same time and successfully pass the level, then he is either already a hidden boss or will definitely become a legendary boss in the future.
"No matter what the situation is, we joined the boss's guild when it was first established and became veteran members. Don't you think we made a profit?"
After hearing what the other party said, Hu Jiayao finally understood and nodded vigorously, "Profit! Big profit! Win a lot!"
He even began to inexplicably expect the president to be able to successfully 1v6 and confirm his status as a big boss.
While the two were talking, employees started to come into the cafeteria one after another, and the hall quickly became noisy.
The two of them ordered a few dishes and sat down in the corner.
Hu Jiayao wolfed down half a chicken leg, then looked up to find Gu Jinxing staring at the people coming and going in the hall without touching the food on his plate.
"You don't want to eat?" Hu Jiayao asked.
Gu Jinxing raised his eyebrows, "Do you dare to eat the food here?"
Hu Jiayao then remembered that this was a horror escape game, and he spat out the chicken in his mouth out of fear.
Gu Jinxing couldn't help laughing at his silly look and took a bite of the scrambled eggs to eat.
Seeing this, Hu Jiayao said angrily: "Are you trying to scare me?"
But Gu Jinxing suddenly stopped smiling, his eyes fixed on a place behind them, "There's something wrong."
Hu Jiayao snorted and laughed, "You want to trick me again? You think I will look back? I won't be fooled this time!"
Gu Jinxing had no mood to joke with him, so he stood up and walked to the dining table behind him.
Hu Jiayao's smile froze, "Is there really a situation?"
