Chapter 404: Patrolmen, one after another!
Luo Li froze in her chair.
No words were spoken for a long time.
There was a moment of silence in the live broadcast room.
Immediately afterwards, the barrage exploded:
[This...is this a beginner's guide???]
[No, I fight the boss within a few minutes of entering the game? ?]
[So the trailer is real, and all of them are really BOSS?]
[The mechanism for dissuading new players has reached its peak]
[The host was laughing so happily just now, and now he is so peaceful]
[Good question! Is Fu Yue a plot kill?]
[Anchor, please say something! Are you still alive?]
【Everyone looks down on you, but you just don't live up to your expectations. 】
Luo Li took a deep breath, her eyes blank.
She clicked the mouse again, to see if she could check the death records.
A short description pops up on the system interface:
[The mountain has not yet been explored]
【Failed mountain patrol, recorded in the album】
[The Demon Suppression Bureau has prepared a successor]
【Succession?】
Luo Li stared at the line of words, the corner of her mouth twitching:
"...You really aren't playing the plot kill."
"You really killed me."
"You're crazy about killing."
"I haven't even taken three steps yet, and you're already erecting a monument for me!"
Luo Li gritted her teeth and clicked the mouse.
The screen went black.
The loading bar advances slowly.
Finally, the screen lit up.
The temple door opened again.
The dilapidated outpost, the mottled talismans, the tilted statues... everything is the same as before.
But this time, the character information bar in the lower right corner of the screen has been updated.
[You are the 97th Patrolman of the new Demon Suppression Bureau]
Current Location: Demon Suppression Division Frontline Outpost
[Current Mission: Entering the Mountain]
Please complete the inspection of the first mountain.
“…”
Luo Li stared at the line of text and was silent for ten seconds.
"Is this the ninety-seventh generation?"
"Isn't your Demon Suppression Division in decline? How come you're recruiting so quickly?"
Then she looked up and stared at the live camera:
"No...that is to say!"
"Wasn't that a plot kill just now?"
"Was I really killed normally before?"
"I used to think this game could go back in time and return to my previous character! Now it seems completely different!"
Luo Li gritted her teeth and cautiously rushed to the place where she fell.
Sure enough, the previous generation of rangers were already lying on the ground.
Without moving, Luo Li approached and searched decisively.
Then click on the inventory.
Still the same items:
Old compass x1, divination cup x1, long sword x1, copper coin.
But the copper beans have disappeared.
"Alright! Even though the equipment is passed down from generation to generation, it's gone once it's used!"
She did, and flipped the divination cup.
"At least let me see the newcomer's fortune."
With a click of the mouse, the divination cup jumped up with a clang, shook three times in the center of the screen, and stopped.
[very bad]
Luo Li: “…”
"Alright! We're of the same lineage!"
The barrage was silent for two seconds, and then:
【Hahahahahahahahahaha】
[The 97th generation is also not optimistic]
[It is recommended that you uninstall the game at this time to ensure safety]
[Patrolmen, one after another! ]
【This divination is so accurate! 】
[Hahahahahahahaha, why don’t you check the map first, there might be a fork in the road]
Luo Li was stunned when she saw the guidance in the barrage.
yes.
As soon as she entered the mountain gate, she was attracted by Fu Yue's huge figure and paid almost no attention to other places.
She hurriedly manipulated the character and turned her head to look around.
In the dim mountain rain, the temple is in ruins and the talismans are mottled.
The bluestone path under my feet meandered away. There was indeed only one right path leading directly to the mountain, and in the middle of that path stood the mountain-like Rock God.
“…So, you tell me, there is no fork in the road.”
Luo Li's face turned black.
She held the mouse tightly and stared at the path winding up the mountain with gritted teeth.
"Let's go for a walk first. How will we know if we don't try?"
Thus, the 97th generation of mountain rangers embarked on the journey of mountain range patrol.
The mountain fog was swirling and the wind was howling.
In front, the huge figure slowly lowered its head again, its eyes coldly locked on the tiny player.
Fu Yue's name slowly emerged:
【Pan Yan Gong·Fu Yue】
Mountain-level hazard: The mountain itself
Luo Li forced herself to cheer up:
"Calm down... Calm down! The essence of action games is to be familiar with the enemy's movements. Even if the boss is huge, there will always be loopholes!"
Before he finished speaking, Lord Panyan raised his hand, and his giant arm like a mountain smashed down!
Luo Li reacted instinctively and dodged!
Boom!!!
The entire ground collapsed into a huge pit.
"I dodged it again!!!"
Luo Li slammed the table excitedly.
However--
Lord Panyan's other hand had already swept over.
Luo Li had no time to react before her character was thrown away like a rag doll.
You are dead
[Current Record: The 97th Patrolman was defeated at the mountain gate]
[The Demon Suppression Bureau has prepared a successor]
Luo Li: “…”
The live broadcast room burst into laughter:
【Ahahahahahahahahahahahaha! 】
[Isn't this the favorite way for Souls players to die? ]
[The anchor has really become an experienced baby]
【Fu Yue: I’ll take as many pictures as you want】
[Can you beat them for a few moves? How else can we play this game? Did the streamer miss some key item?]
Luo Li was completely speechless.
"...Old Yao, what are you doing? I was playing a game, and ended up applying for a cannon fodder position in the Mountain Patrol Division?"
But she felt a sense of unwillingness in her heart.
"Just wait...I haven't lost yet!"
She clicked on Continue again.
[You are the 98th Patrolman of the new Demon Suppression Bureau]
Please complete the inspection of the first mountain.
Luo Li: “…”
The BOSS is big!
There is no flaw!
The barrage of comments is swiping the screen like crazy:
[Demon Suppression Division: We regret to inform you that the 97th employee has unfortunately passed away. Please ask the next person to take up the position as soon as possible.]
[Today is not a good day to go out and patrol the mountains, it is a good day to drink tea at home]
[Anchor, accept your fate. You are now destined to die endlessly.]
[Maybe this is how it's played! Accumulating intelligence from generation to generation?]
Luo Li's eyelids twitched.
“…You have a point.”
She thought about it and opened the backpack.
Still the same old three.
Then there seems to be nothing different.
Where did she accumulate intelligence?
Luo Li stared at the screen and controlled the character to slowly pace in the temple.
Something was wrong, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
This game is also a whale leap,
Even if Lao Yao has never worked on PC before, there shouldn't be no guide for beginners, right?
"If we can't get through this by sheer force, then everyone online will be killed by Fu Yue once. How can we even play this game?"
The barrage was also hotly discussed:
【Maybe there's a hidden passage! 】
[Is there a teaching institution? Look for it!]
【Or is there something hidden in this temple? 】
[Don't just think about going up the mountain, check out the camp first!]
Luo Li watched the barrage while controlling the character to walk around the temple.
The stone brick floor was damp and cold, and in the corner of the wall were piled some tattered cloths, ash pots, and a dried-up bronze bell.
She walked to the main hall of the temple, where a statue of a deity was enshrined in the center.
It is already broken and its appearance is blurred, but three mottled golden characters on the plaque can be vaguely seen:
The Demon Suppression Division.
"This place really used to be an official organization." Luo Li muttered softly.
The character walked behind the statue and unexpectedly found a yellowed wooden table with a stack of gray books on it.
She reached out and flipped her hand, and the system prompt appeared:
[You obtain the item: "Monster Suppression Record"]
【Do you want to read? 】
Luo Li's eyes lit up:
"Here it comes! I knew there wouldn't be a tutorial!"
"I'm sorry, the first two generations, you all died in vain!"
"It's all my fault. I was too impatient!"
She clicked "Read".
The screen flashed, and the picture cut into an antique-style interface, like flipping through a thick booklet.
Page 1:
[Record of the Demon Suppression: General Preface]
"In ancient times, demonic disasters were rampant, mountains and rivers shook, and hundreds of ghosts roamed at night. In order to suppress the great demons, patrol the mountains and rivers, and record the harm caused, the Demon Suppression Division was established."
"Patrollers are responsible for investigating demons, patrolling the mountains, and keeping records. Any appearance of a great demon must be recorded in the records, passed down from generation to generation, and must not be lost."
“If the previous generation failed, the successor can follow in their footsteps, tread in their footsteps, carry on the legacy and forge ahead, exchanging their lives for knowledge.”
"Generation after generation of mountain rangers have gone on this quest, but none have ever returned unscathed."
Luo Li frowned:
"My goodness, this ranger is too miserable!"
Then she continued to flip backwards.
Most of the pages are blank, with only a few pages printed with brief introductions.
【Classification of Big Monsters】
[Mountains: Its body is a mountain, it sits still and dominates all living things]
Wind disasters: Qi becomes a demon, coming and going like the wind, unpredictable.
[Curses and Sins: Words bring disaster; hearing them brings misfortune; thinking about them brings ruin]
[Blood-eating creatures: They need humans to survive, they crave life like honey, and there is no chance of survival.]
Luo Li's scalp was numb.
But the more she turned, the darker her face became.
It's all blank, without even a simple description.
The only good thing about this Demon Suppression Record is the cover, which introduces the classification of big demons and the origin of the Demon Suppression Bureau.
For others, there is not even a catalog!
"What kind of a damn catalog is this? It's like an encyclopedia with blank pages."
Luo Li flipped through the pages randomly and finally found a page with ink marks.
She discovered something unusual in the Great Demon Atlas.
The title reads:
【Pan Yan Gong·Fu Yue】
Below is a short text:
"The Mountain Bearer is a mountain spirit. It first appeared in the Tianqing Ridge area. Its body is the mountain itself. Its movement is like a landslide, and its movement causes the ground to collapse. Mortals cannot defeat it, and those who first encounter it are unlikely to survive."
[Other unrecorded items: appearance, moves, habits.]
[Note: This monster has been registered by a ranger, and some information needs to be completed.]
"—The Record of the Seventy-Seventh Generation Mountain Ranger."
