A cruise ship is different from the land. Whenever someone passed by in the aisle just now, Song Yue would have heard footsteps.
But this person didn't.
Appeared outside the door silently.
Definitely not an ordinary tasker.
She was cautious and also kept silent, quietly sticking to the door.
The peephole looked black, and I couldn't tell if it was broken or blocked by someone outside.
Song Yue tends to the latter.
Knock, knock, knock! The door rang again.
Then the footsteps quietly faded away, and if you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't notice it at all.
The corridor returned to silence once again, and the knock on the door seemed to have never happened.
Song Yue thought about it, took a glass from the table, and put it on the door handle. That way, if someone outside maliciously opened the lock, the glass would fall to the ground immediately, waking her up.
That night, the room was as cold as an ice cellar.
When she woke up the next day, Song Yue found that everything outside the window was white. The cruise ship had already stopped moving and was stuck on the ice.
At night, the system also issued several death reminders:
[Tasker xxx has died]
[Tasker No. xx has died]
[Tasker No. 56 has died]
Song Yue didn't show any emotion and started to check the character's situation.
Because she ate little last night and had not eaten all night, she was labeled as "moderately hungry" and her health value dropped from 99 last night to 94.
She quickly took out a long loaf of bread and started to eat it in big mouthfuls, then opened a can of milk until she felt full and the negative state was gone.
Her stockpile could probably last for 3 to 4 days, and Song Yue originally planned to stay in the room for the next few days.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes, and this copy has no intention of letting them go easily.
A broadcast sounded in the corridor:
[All taskers please arrive at the first floor restaurant within 10 minutes]
[All taskers please arrive at the first floor restaurant within 10 minutes]
…
After saying that, the countdown in the lower left corner began to move, and the numbers decreased second by second, as if indicating that their life value was counting down.
Song Yue originally wanted to not carry the backpack, but when she was more than 1 meter away from the backpack, she received a system reminder.
【Please carry your backpack with you, otherwise it will be treated as a violation】
Well, it seems I have to carry the bag all the time.
Song Yue stopped hesitating, turned around to put on her bag, then opened the door and walked into the aisle.
While passing by the room of Tasker No. 56, she glanced at it from the side.
The head split open in the middle like a piece of popcorn, blood pooled on the ground and turned directly into a black and red ice surface under the low temperature.
Song Yue remembered the girl who knocked on the door yesterday.
She didn't expect that someone would dare to open the door in such a copy. She calmly withdrew her gaze and went downstairs.
People came out from other rooms one after another, each holding a weapon in their hands, their eyes full of distrust.
"You go first." The girl standing at the door of a room stared at the person opposite her, her whole body shaking like a sieve.
The man in the opposite room snorted and laughed, then raised his mallet: "You're so scared, there are still 13 days left."
After saying that, he took a step forward and walked into the aisle.
The girl followed him without saying a word, always keeping a distance of about 2 meters.
Some people were still hesitating whether to listen to the system and leave the room.
"What should I do? Go or not?"
A group of people who had formed a small alliance yesterday stood at the door of their respective rooms and asked uncertainly.
A young man numbered 6 lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Go, of course you have to go. This is the system's rule."
He was the one with the highest number in the group, and everyone knew what that meant, so they listened to him.
"Should we go down now? It seems like a lot of people are heading downstairs. I'm afraid it's not safe."
Number 6 shook his head: "No, let's wait for 8 or 9 minutes. When the aisle is clear, we can go down."
When everyone heard this, they thought it made sense.
"Okay, I'll listen to you then."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on the time and remind you."
Seven or eight people just stood at the door, watching the others go away.
After 8 minutes, except for them, almost all the other taskers on this floor had gone downstairs.
"Brother, there is almost no one left, you can go now." someone reminded.
Number 6 lowered his eyes and shook his head gently: "Wait a little longer."
The others were puzzled, but then they thought, "Number 6 is here with them, so what do they have to worry about?" So they patiently waited.
After half a minute, the second person couldn't sit still any longer: "Brother, there's really no one here, let's go downstairs!"
Unexpectedly, No. 6 still shook his head: "There are people downstairs. I heard some noise. Let's wait a little longer."
"Ah, this..." Everyone couldn't help but feel anxious.
But considering that No. 6 is as stable as a rock, forget it, just bear with it!
Finally, the countdown entered the final 60 seconds.
Seeing that the time left for them was getting less and less, several people could no longer stand and rushed into the aisle.
"Brother, don't wait any longer, it's too late! Hurry down and get downstairs!"
"Everyone hurry up, we still have a corridor to run after we go downstairs!"
25, 24, 23...
With less than half a minute left, several people hurried to the first floor.
The stairs were still some distance away from the restaurant, and they rolled and crawled, with panic becoming more and more obvious on their faces.
10, 9, 8...
"It's almost there! Everyone, hurry up!" The leader panted and encouraged the people behind him.
But at this moment, a figure rushed out like lightning, brushing past their shoulders!
Who?! A thought popped up in my mind.
When they came to their senses, they found that it was number 6 who was at the end at the beginning.
"Brother, you run so fast!" someone said panting.
No. 6 ignored him and stepped into the restaurant at the 3rd second countdown.
"Brother, give me a hand! I can't take it anymore!" The man following No. 6 was so tired that he was out of breath. He stretched out his hand, wanting the other party to pull him in.
Who knows.
2 seconds to go.
Bang!
Under everyone's gaze, No. 6 closed the restaurant door with a smile on his lips.
"You...!" The people who were locked outside couldn't believe it.
The last second.
"You actually lied to us!!!"
Seven or eight people turned into a beam of light amidst the roar.
At the same time, the system prompts:
[Tasker xxx has died]
[Tasker No. xx has died]
…
There were seven of them in a row, making people in the restaurant shudder.
"God, is he crazy? Why would he do this?!"
"I was saying that when I went downstairs just now, I saw them standing there motionless. It turns out he didn't want these people to live at all!"
"Haha, I finally understand. A number 1 and a number 6. No one here can be trusted! Everyone, just wish you the best!"
There were all kinds of voices. Song Yue stood in the crowd and sighed secretly.
There is really no trust between people. Although everyone has the same status, they regard everyone around them as enemies from the very beginning.
But it's understandable.
Killing is not illegal here, and as long as you kill one person, you can get the other person's backpack and supplies. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a cost-free "transaction"?
Perhaps the success of No. 6 aroused some people's curiosity. Song Yue noticed that the restaurant, which had been relatively calm, became restless again.
"Give me the things in the bag and I will spare your life." A burly man pushed a girl into the corner and threatened her.
The girl held onto her bag, refusing to let go: "No... If I give it to you, I'll have nothing..."
The man had no patience. After hearing this, he became furious and hit the girl on the head with his fist.
The girl wailed miserably, her voice echoing throughout the restaurant.
But no matter how miserably she screamed, no one came to save her, including Song Yue.
Not long after, the girl died under the man's fist, and the man got the girl's bag and the weapon on her body - a bow and crossbow - as he wished.
"Tsk, it's a waste to give you such a good thing." The man picked up the weapon, looked around, and was overjoyed for a moment.
When the others saw that the men numbered after 100 had succeeded, there was no reason why they, who were ahead in the queue, would not be able to get a spot.
In a flash, the restaurant turned into a battlefield, and the men, relying on their natural strength advantage, began to plunder the female taskers nearby.
"No! Don't!"
"I'll give you the things, and you'll let me go, okay?"
“Ah! Help!”
With one scream after another, the system issued more and more death warnings.
The number of people in the dungeon decreased rapidly, and among them, the vast majority of those who died were female taskers.
"That woman! Did you see that? Go ahead, do it!"
Two men, one tall and one short, approached Song Yue quickly.
The wooden stick was raised high, and before it was about to fall, the person in front of him turned around!
A knife that came out of nowhere stabbed into his right eye!
“Ah——!” The tall man let go of the stick, covered his eyes and knelt on the ground.
When the short man saw this, he was so scared that he didn't dare to move forward. He had no weapon in his hand, and no matter how strong he was, he was no match for the knife.
"Lady, please spare his life. I, I, I... I'll give you my own things...!" He took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag, put it on the ground, turned around and ran away.
No. 5 stood in the corner and saw everything Song Yue did clearly.
Tsk, he held the axe and couldn't help frowning.
The tasker matched with me in this round is too strong. I originally planned to attack No. 2 and replace the other party's ranking, but who would have thought that the other party is as strong as No. 1.
The most important thing is that these two people are girls! It's too outrageous!
No. 5 felt that his plan had encountered obstacles and his goals had to be temporarily adjusted.
His eyes moved around the restaurant, and suddenly, his gaze fell on the gentle boy No. 3 who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
If I can’t get the ranking of No. 1 and No. 2, then I can at least get No. 3, right?
Anyway, as long as you are in the top 3, you can get a lot of points in the end.
He needs points so much!
From the novice copy to the C-level and C+ copies, he always completed the required tasks within the final timeline. As for the optional tasks and those hidden tasks that had never been triggered, he could not even touch them.
At this point, he still hasn't paid back the lifespan he owes the system.
The three-month repayment period is about to expire. If he cannot get points from the promotion copy today, his life will end here.
When No. 5 thought about the hard-earned chance to be reborn slipping away, he refused to give up no matter what!
So he frowned, picked up the axe, walked through the noisy crowd, and walked towards boy No. 3.
However, boy No. 3 didn't notice the approaching danger at all. At that time, his eyes were on Song Yue No. 2 who had a calm face.
Song Yue felt that someone was looking at her.
She tilted her head slightly and saw the boy with the number 3 written on his chest.
He frowned suspiciously, his mind quickly recalling whether he had seen the other person in any copy.
In the copy, as taskers, they would adopt the appearance and body shape of the original owner, but according to Song Yue's three copy experiences, the original owner who took on the body each time looked about 50% to 60% similar to her.
This time, the promotion copy uses her original appearance.
If she had seen boy No. 3 before, she should be able to recall someone in the copy who looked similar to him.
But unfortunately, Song Yue searched his mind but found nothing.
As if noticing her confusion, boy No. 3 took the initiative and walked towards her quickly.
"Xiaoyue, long time no see!"
How did the other party know my name? !
Song Yue took a cautious step back.
Boy No. 3: "It's me, I'm 099!"
Song Yue:?
"How did you get in?!"
