Su Yi immediately chose no.
The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. [The truth exploration degree] is not only related to the murderer, but also the purpose of the high-level players' trip. As a new player with extremely low level gold coins, self-destruction now is tantamount to sticking your neck out to be slaughtered by others.
[The truth exploration degree and the truth fragments in your backpack have been hidden for you, and other players cannot spy on them]
Just as Su Yi was about to observe the corpse in front of him for a little longer, a new question popped up on the screen:
[Does it also need to hide the truth from the audience? 】
Su Yi paused, and the light screen introduced him:
[The increased truth exploration can attract more viewers to your small TV, you can accumulate popularity points faster, and also get more gold coins from viewers]
[There are currently 185 viewers watching your TV, 96 people are following you, and your popularity ranking in the horror script-killing rookie area is 156th, which means you are in the fledgling stage.]
[If you advance 56 places, you will enter the Top 100 Newcomer Promotion Zone and receive a reward of +500 gold coins and a five-level promotion. Please think of ways to retain the audience at this critical moment! ]
This is the light screen suggesting that he reveal the [degree of truth exploration] to the audience.
To be honest, Su Yi was a little surprised to see that there were more than a hundred people watching him behind this small screen. With so many people watching him and expecting him, if he worked harder, he would be able to enter the top 100 promotion areas and be famous.
As a newcomer he should be happy, but Su Yi only felt a heavy pressure in his heart. He shrank his shoulders, and his graceful naked back showed his butterfly bones.
When the players were introducing each other before, Maid Lin mentioned him on the small TV. Many people came over from Sister Lin’s live broadcast room, and together with some people who were already following him, his small TV looked quite lively, and the barrage seemed relatively friendly at the moment.
Su Yi knew in his heart that if he disclosed the [Degree of Truth Exploration] at this time, it would undoubtedly greatly arouse the emotions of the audience and further increase his popularity.
All the audience will see that his exploration level as a newcomer is actually ahead of all the players. Even the awesome Bai Shen has not been able to unlock 5% of the truth in such a short time like him. It is not difficult to imagine how excited the audience will be.
After the excitement, people will also have higher expectations for him. The higher he is praised, the harder he will fall. And who can guarantee that this group of viewers will not go to other players’ live broadcast rooms to post random comments? As long as one viewer says it out loud, all his work will be in vain.
To be on the safe side, Su Yi chose to hide the [degree of truth exploration] from the audience.
Light screen: [If you are worried about the audience leaking secrets, don't worry. Under the strict system mechanism, the audience cannot leak your secrets anywhere, and his/her speech will be cleared instantly]
Most people might feel relieved after hearing Guangping's promise, but Su Yi was quick to think of more. He asked in his mind, "What if... the audience conveys information through riddles, codes, etc.? Or hints?"
For example, if a viewer in a high-level player's livestream says something suggestively like "Look at the new guy!", other players might be able to guess that he has unlocked the [Truth Exploration].
Light screen: [Using riddles, codes, hints, or any other means to convey information that cannot be spoken is a violation of the rules. Once discovered, you will be executed immediately.]
The concise words stated the terrible rules without any emotion, and Su Yi was shocked. He didn't expect that every audience member who was laughing and posting comments on the small TV was also under strict surveillance on the screen.
Most people would just be frightened and forget about it, since they are already dead. This is still a horror script-killing game, so some horror rules are normal.
But Su Yi found the most piercing point from the words on the screen just now:
The light screen explains that the audience cannot reveal his secrets anywhere because once they speak, they will be cleared.
This means that if someone goes to Bai Shen’s live broadcast room and posts the barrage: The exploration of Su Yi’s truth is 5%!
This type of barrage will be cleared instantly and no one can see it, and the viewer who posted it will not be affected.
But if this viewer communicates with Bai Shen through a specific code in the bullet screen, and reveals the 5% exploration degree without telling the light screen system...
Once discovered, they will be killed immediately!
The intimidation of this rule is not about revealing other players' secrets, but about not trying to cheat the system.
This airtight control made Su Yi feel extremely uncomfortable. Not only players had to abide by the rules of the game, but viewers had to abide by the rules as well. And these rules were not about respecting the etiquette of the barrage, using polite words and having friendly discussions, but about not being allowed to try to hide anything from the system.
Every word and action of everyone in this murder thriller script must be supervised by the system.
Otherwise they would be put to death.
——This is too scary!
Su Yi felt a suffocating fear, which was even stronger than when he saw the murderer coming to kill him. His brain reflexively planned a way out for himself:
For example, the light screen says: Once discovered, they will be executed immediately.
Is there any code, secret language, or other means to secretly transmit information without being discovered?
Sudden--!
A warning in large red letters popped up on the screen in front of me:
【what's on your mind? 】
! !
Su Yi was so frightened that all the pores on his body stood up. The light screen would always answer the players' questions and guide the players. It was very convenient. Players could get the answers as long as they asked questions in their minds, so...
This light screen can read the players' minds!
——Even your thoughts are monitored, you can’t even think…!
Almost at the same time, Su Yi felt a heat on his neck, as if a ring was about to be put on, so hot...
His light screen made a buzzing sound, and at this critical moment, Su Yi felt him being grabbed by a pair of big hands and lifted up directly from his seat!
The sudden change happened in an instant. Before the others could react, Young Master Bai had already picked up Su Yi and left the seat. The glowing circle seemed to have a locking program and immediately turned around to rush over...
Bai Da Shao was trapped in the character setting of a disabled wheelchair and could not run or jump quickly, so he had no choice but to let go and throw the person in his arms to the other side.
Su Yi felt like she was thrown up! The snow-white wedding dress was like a withered white rose in the air. The magician sitting at the round table opposite quickly jumped onto the table, caught Su Yi with both hands like a princess, turned around and jumped lightly, and escaped from the round table.
At the same time, the Third Young Master Bai Shen stood up suddenly, raised his hand to grab the light circle that was about to fly towards Su Yi, and his iron-like arm burst out with powerful strength, and threw it out of the window fiercely -
BANG!!!
A huge flash of light exploded near the window, shattering all the glass. Shards of glass flew into the room along with the hot wind, and all the players squatted down with their heads in their hands.
Su Yi was held in the magician's arms and protected tightly. His ears were rumbling, and from this light and heat, he suddenly understood what this circle of light was:
Collar bomb.
The whole process, from appearance to explosion, took less than two seconds. If it had been a little slower, it would have been put around his neck and his head would have exploded!
The third young master Bai Shen turned around, pursed his lips tightly, and questioned Su Yi in an angry tone:
"What did you do!"
Su Yi was still in shock, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, his dark eyes were misty and he was almost on the verge of tears, feeling both scared and aggrieved.
He almost... was blown to death! Just because he had an idea, he wanted to avoid the system...
"Shh-"
The magician stretched out his slender index finger and touched Su Yi's soft lips. The tip of his leather-covered finger was icy cold.
"Let me show you—"
The magician opened his palm towards him, and Su Yi saw a ring lying in the palm of his hand!
…like a proposal ring.
He was surprised, and his thoughts were naturally interrupted. He no longer thought about deceiving the system. The magician closed his hand into a fist, and then opened it again, and his palm became empty again.
The third young master stared at the magician. From the angle he was standing at, he couldn't see what the magician had in his hand. He could only see the magician opening his hands towards Su Yi, and Su Yi's nervous and frightened expression eased a little.
——It was clearly him who threw the collar bomb, but now he seemed to be a bad guy and scolded Su Yi fiercely. The magician fell there hugging Su Yi, acting like a good person and performing magic to make people happy.
"Okay, it was just a false alarm." Young Master Bai said, smiling at Su Yi:
"It's normal for newcomers to do this. Don't be afraid. Everyone will experience this once. There is an unspoken rule in horror script killings:
“Don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t think, don’t try to escape, don’t try to hide.”
Otherwise, it will be instantly wiped out by the light screen system.
Su Yi raised his head and looked at the other players. He found that none of them looked shocked. They seemed to be used to it. Maid Lin poked her head out from under the table, kicked away the broken glass in front of her, stood up and sighed:
"They actually used a collar bomb on a newcomer right away. The system is too inhumane now." She turned her head and smiled at Su Yi with concern:
"Are you okay?"
Su Yi shook his head and asked the magician to let him down.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, his legs immediately went limp. The magician gentlemanly reached out his hand, put his arm around his waist, and helped him stand steady.
At this time, a mechanical warning sounded in the round table hall:
[Players please continue to check the corpse]
[Warning again, players please return to the script-killing content and continue to check the corpse! ]
The left half of the round table was closer to the window and was hit harder by the explosion, so it was no longer suitable for sitting on. Everyone moved to the right half.
Su Yi sat next to the magician. The eldest young master pushed his wheelchair over. The third young master could only sit next to the magician, with one person's seat between him and Su Yi.
Su Yi raised his head and saw Bai Shen's cold look. He opened his mouth to say something, but then he remembered that the Third Young Master had a fierce tone and was afraid that he would upset others again.
Bai Shen was already angry enough just now, maybe he didn't expect... there would be a newcomer so stupid as to violate the unspoken rules and even trigger a bomb-level annihilation. Although everyone comforted him that it was okay, Su Yi could feel from a few words that before, when a newcomer violated the unspoken rules, there would be no bomb-level punishment.
If Bai Shen hadn't thrown it out in time, he would have exploded like that. Not only would he have died, but he would also have caused the eldest and third young masters around him to be buried with him.
——Bai Shen might be angry about this.
Su Yi thought about it and decided that next time... he should go and apologize. It was one thing to be killed in the game, but it was too unreasonable to cause other players to be killed as well and hold others back.
Bai Shen sat in his seat, saying nothing.
He looked normal, but only he knew how fast his heart was beating. He had never had such a high heart rate before. At that moment, he even experienced what fear and terror were for the first time in a horror script-killing game.
If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, Su Yi would have been blown to death.
No newcomer has ever violated the system to this extent. I wonder what this guy is thinking about!
Bai Shen got angry when he thought about it. Judging from his experience, the collar bomb was about to explode. The system didn't give Su Yi, the newcomer, a chance to correct his mistakes. It wanted him to die.
When I rushed forward to stop it, I knew that this circle of light that was about to explode must be terribly hot.
But time did not allow him to wear any gloves.
The moment he held it, he heard a very slight sizzling sound, like the sound of flesh being burned.
The Third Young Master clenched his fists silently, not letting anyone see the burns on his hands.
