"There's another one." Alvia took an eyeball off Zhou Zhou's shoulder and handed the eye to Zhou Zhou. After the eye was replaced, Zhou Zhou smiled at Alvia and turned his head.
"Hmm? Where are the people?"
The player just now has disappeared.
"He ran away a long time ago."
"Are you scared by me?"
"No." Alvia glanced at the NPC who was walking towards them aggressively on the stairs, and said calmly: "He is being chased by this NPC."
The NPC that ran over had a gorgeous appearance, but it looked like someone had chopped off half of his head. There was no blood spilling out, only red and white brain tissue, which made people's scalp tingle at a glance.
She seemed not to notice the two people beside her. She stared at the fleeing player, the knife in her hand gleaming coldly as she shouted at the fleeing player: "How dare you run away? I'm going to kill you!"
The two stood by the wall and watched the NPC run away with a ferocious face.
"I feel like it would have a better effect if some bleeding was added." Zhou Zhou said thoughtfully as he looked at the stairs where screams were coming from.
It’s just that nowadays games are not allowed to have too many bloody scenes, so this idea has to be abandoned with regret.
Alvia stared at Zhou Zhou, and suddenly reached out and gouged out one of his eyeballs.
"It's the wrong way around."
This sudden action scared the player who happened to pass by so much that he shuddered and slowly backed away from the two.
"Really? But the reaction should be the same whether you pretend to use your eyes or not."
"No, the irises of the two eyes are different colors."
Zhou Zhou raised his head and obediently let Alvia help him put his eyes back in place: "I don't notice any difference between my two eyes."
"The iris of my left eye was a little lighter in color, but it's fine now."
"Oh, thank you."
Zhou Zhou blinked. There was no mirror at the moment, otherwise he would have definitely wanted to see the difference between his two eyes. He had never noticed it before.
"Is there any place you want to go now?" Alvia helped Zhou Zhou adjust his eyes and then led his hand naturally.
Zhou Zhou glanced at him and said, "We can't go out now. We have to wait an hour."
As soon as he finished speaking, a player rushed past the two of them and ran towards the window at the end of the corridor.
This is the third floor, which is not very high, so the players with nowhere to escape are ready to jump out of the window and leave the building.
He jumped towards the open window and disappeared immediately.
But the next moment he appeared at the window again, staggered forward two steps, and looked around in disbelief. He had clearly jumped out of the window just now, so why did he come back?
A sound that came from far away and then got closer came from behind the two of them. The harsh sound of metal scratching the ground made Zhou Zhou and Elvia couldn't help but look sideways. A boy in a white suit slowly approached. He lowered his head, and his white suit was stained with blood. In his hand, he was holding a pair of large silver scissors, which were cold and sharp, and looked very deterrent.
There was a hint of stiffness in his slow steps. He didn't even glance at the two people as he passed by them, and walked straight towards the player by the window.
"Don't come over here!"
Not knowing what happened, the player collapsed and screamed. Seeing that the way back was blocked, the player jumped out of the window again.
The next second he saw the familiar scenery again and he returned to the window.
And the NPC was getting closer and closer to him.
The player's eyes were filled with panic, and he suddenly saw two people leisurely walking in the corridor, and immediately called for help.
Zhou Zhou turned his head and looked several times to make sure that the other person's eyes were on Elvia.
One of the two people has a favorability mark on him, and the other has a countdown mark on him, so their identities are clear at a glance. Now these players don’t even have time to hide when they meet NPCs, so the person he calls for help from can only be Elvia.
Elvia remained indifferent. Not to mention that this was just a game, she wouldn't die if she was killed. Besides, the citizens of the Empire have all learned some self-defense skills in school. If they put up a good fight, they can definitely escape from the NPCs. Moreover, having seen how he and Zhou Zhou get along, anyone with a little brain should be able to figure out something from it.
It would be better to be killed by the NPC and then sober up than to lose all sense of proportion due to panic.
Elvia and Zhou Zhou can be considered as exceptions in this copy. After all, the copy designer is here, and he is just traveling around with them. But their actions will still be more or less restricted by the rules of the dungeon. If these players who are escaping think about it carefully, they will find that the NPC's actions are entirely dependent on the player's attitude. If they can't even discover this, then it will be impossible to pass the game afterwards.
Zhou Zhou didn't save everyone like he did before. After all, this was the game scene he designed. So when he saw this situation, he just pulled the silent Alvia and said, "He's asking you for help."
Zhou Zhou's eyes were clear. He just looked curiously at the players and NPCs who were still asking for help, and then stated this fact to Elvia.
"Do you want to save him?" Elvia didn't care. If Zhou Zhou wanted to save him, he would go and save him. However, for Zhou Zhou now, he should be considered as an NPC.
Looking up at the countdown above Elvia's head, Zhou Zhou said with a strange expression: "We will soon be in danger."
What's the meaning?
Alvia was still wondering what it meant to be unable to protect themselves and why they were unable to protect themselves, when suddenly he turned his head and looked towards the empty corridor.
Ignoring the noisy players and NPCs on the other side, the corridor was brightly lit, but it gave people a strange atmosphere for no reason, as if something invisible was approaching.
It was getting closer and closer. Not only did Elvia look alert, but Zhou Zhou also focused his attention and looked around.
Even though they clearly didn't see anything, both of them looked very solemn.
Getting closer.
"boom!"
Alvia hugged Zhou Zhou and dodged sideways.
Zhou Zhou reacted quickly and pulled Elvia and turned around and ran the next second. A huge pit suddenly appeared behind them where they had just stood.
The flying rocks even attracted players and NPCs on the other side who were about to suffer a tragedy.
The NPC seemed to be accustomed to this, and his expression did not change at all in the face of the sudden situation. The player spat a few times at the dust and gravel that flew into his mouth, and looked in amazement at the spider-web-like pit on the ground.
"What's going on?"
A giant mace suddenly appeared on the broken ground, and then a familiar-looking person slowly emerged.
"Isn't this the dormitory manager?" The players couldn't figure out what was going on and why the dormitory manager was attacking them.
At this time, Zhou Zhou had already pulled Elvia away.
"In the last two hours of the countdown, the two dormitory managers will clear out some of the players who affect discipline. The players with the lowest and highest favorability will be prioritized. Right now, you have the highest favorability here, so the dormitory managers will chase us. Unless they find the group with the lowest favorability in this building, they will change their target."
Zhou Zhou was very familiar with the rules of the dungeon. While explaining them to Elvia, he looked back the way he came.
The dormitory manager who was standing there just now has disappeared, leaving only the confused players and the NPC who was holding a pair of scissors and pointing them at the players' heads.
Elvia discovered the opponent's trace at the moment of attack and dodged in time, but now the dormitory manager behind him disappeared.
There were no blind spots in the corridor, so where did the extremely lethal dormitory manager go in those brief ten seconds?
Before he could find the other party, Elvia suddenly stopped and kicked hard to the side.
There were waves in the deserted place, and the dormitory manager who disappeared in the back strangely appeared beside the two of them, and his weapon and figure slowly appeared in front of them.
And the kick that Alvia threw hit the weapon in the dormitory manager's hand. The dormitory manager looked at Alvia expressionlessly, his cold gray eyes did not fluctuate at all. He clenched the mace more and more forcefully, but it did not move at all.
"Oh, they can become invisible," Zhou Zhou reminded quickly, "and if we don't run quickly, the other one will catch up with us."
The setting of the copy is relatively friendly to NPCs, but it is extremely dangerous for players. Every attack of the dormitory manager is directly directed at Elvia. If it were not for his extremely high combat power, he would have been eliminated long ago.
Elvia even had the energy to talk to Zhou Zhou, asking him how to escape the "hunt" of the two dormitory managers. He came here to live in his own world with Zhou Zhou and didn't want to waste time avoiding the dormitory managers.
Moreover, the dormitory manager is not like the BOSS in the game, where the game will end when killed. If he strikes harder and gets rid of the opponent for a while, the seriously injured dormitory manager will catch up with him unharmed soon.
It is indeed very troublesome.
"The countdown is one hour. If we haven't been eliminated yet, the dormitory manager will go after the other players, and we will be able to get out then."
When the countdown is two hours, the two players with the highest and lowest favorability will have their hatred values maxed out, and the two dormitory managers will only chase after these two players, leaving other players with plenty of time to brush up on the NPC's favorability.
But this only lasts for one hour. If the players with the highest and lowest favorability are not eliminated within this hour, they can leave the building, and the remaining players must share the dormitory manager's hatred value.
Players who survive the last hour can also come out of the building.
So this period of time is very important, and you will be killed if you are not careful.
The player with the lowest favorability who entered the building didn't know where he went, and the two dormitory managers kept chasing Zhou Zhou and Elvia.
The ability to be invisible is indeed very troublesome. Elvia always relies on intuition and subtle air movement to judge the opponent's position. Since he can't kill him, he can only delay time as much as possible.
The two wandered around the building, and finally they had ten minutes left to leave.
Elvia simply took Zhou Zhou to the first floor, ready to leave when the time came.
There were actually quite a few players standing on the first floor at this time. Some were fighting against their own NPCs, while some seemed to have found a way to not only get along harmoniously with the NPCs, but also increase their favorability.
Most of the players did not react to the two people who hurried down from upstairs. Many people recognized that Elvia was the first player to enter the building. Just as they were about to go up and talk to her, they were pushed away by Zhou Zhou.
"What are you doing? Are you sick?"
The player who almost fell couldn't help but curse, but the next moment he was almost split in half by the dormitory manager who suddenly appeared.
Another dormitory manager came out of stealth mode, and his sharp sword collided with the ground, sparking a burst of sparks, scaring the players nearby so much that they dared not even move.
The other players immediately scattered, confused about what was going on.
Elvia took Zhou Zhou to avoid the opponent's attack. Soon after, another dormitory manager appeared, and the two of them attacked Elvia together.
Letting Zhou Zhou stay in a safe place nearby, Elvia moved his wrist and attacked the dormitory manager's legs specifically. The fierce attack prevented the two dormitory managers from getting close for a while.
The other players stood far away and watched the show, discussing how the other side had offended these two dormitory managers who looked ferocious.
Zhou Zhou was standing nearby. Hearing the players' discussion, he turned around and asked in confusion, "Isn't it written on the task board? Didn't you guys read it?"
"Have you written it?" The player hesitantly opened his task panel. He had been chased by the NPC for a long time and had no time to look at the task panel. Only then did he find that the content on it had been updated.
"It's about the countdown. In the first hour, the NPC will mutate. In the second hour, the dormitory manager will hunt down the players with the highest and lowest favorability. Wow, luckily my favorability is average, otherwise I would be hunted down too."
The player was muttering to himself, looking a little gloating. These two dormitory managers were not easy to mess with. It seemed that being ordinary also had its advantages.
"Hmm? There's another part later, the last hour, chasing after the others..."
The player's voice gradually became quieter, and he suddenly looked up at the countdown above the other players' heads. There were still two minutes left until the last hour!
"What the hell!" The player looked at the two dormitory managers who were still attacking Elvia with weapons in hand, and suddenly jumped up, "Run! These two dormitory managers are coming to hunt us down!"
After saying that, he quickly pulled his NPC upstairs.
The players who stayed on the first floor had all tried to open the door, but all failed without exception, so the only place they could escape to now was upstairs.
The players who were nearby also realized the seriousness of the problem and ran upstairs together, while other players who were farther away looked at these people running upstairs in confusion.
"Why are you running?"
Alvia had been calculating the time in his mind, and as soon as the last hour reached, he immediately stepped back.
The two dormitory managers did not continue to follow up, but slowly turned their heads to the other players standing nearby.
Players:? ? ?
Because there are a lot of ordinary players, the dormitory managers all adopt the principle of proximity, chasing whoever is closer, and the players who are still on the first floor are their targets.
The dormitory manager was chasing people everywhere with a weapon in his hand, as if he didn't even notice Zhou Zhou and Elvia standing nearby.
The players were almost crying. They didn't even have time to check the task panel, and they didn't know that the countdown had so many deceptive rules. They couldn't even take care of their own NPCs and fled desperately in various directions.
The weapon wielded by the dormitory manager seemed to be passing by my neck. If I was a step slower, my life would be in danger.
The NPCs that were left behind stared blankly at the players who were gradually moving away. Their expressions gradually became dangerous, and they also took out their weapons.
Zhou Zhou scratched his head and turned to ask Elvia: "Isn't this too difficult? After all, being hunted by NPCs and dormitory managers, the survival rate will be very low. There are other tasks to come. I guess there won't be many people left after the whole dungeon is over."
"Fortunately, there are many loopholes in the rules that can be exploited. It's not completely hopeless. It just depends on whether we can find them."
Elvia and Zhou Zhou walked towards the door together. As the group with the highest favorability, they successfully avoided the pursuit of the dormitory manager for a whole hour and were now finally able to go out.
The door that other players had tried to open countless times was opened by Zhou Zhou with just one push.
After the two of them went out, some sharp-eyed players immediately wanted to run outside with them. However, when they ran to the door, the door seemed to have some kind of sensor and suddenly closed tightly, and no matter how hard the players pushed, it would not open.
"I want to report it! There is something fishy going on. Why can they get out and why can't they let us out!" the player shouted.
His voice also attracted the attention of the two dormitory managers, who looked at him sinisterly...
The chaos in the building had nothing to do with them. Night was falling and most of the players were struggling in the dormitory, so it seemed quiet outside.
Zhou Zhou touched his stomach and felt a little hungry.
"Let's find a place to eat." Zhou Zhou said. He still had a lot of food left, and now that he had no other tasks to do, he could enjoy a leisurely meal.
The two found a classroom, Zhou Zhou put two tables together, and then took out the food.
The food that can be brought into the dungeon is very expensive. Zhou Zhou saved a lot of food. He originally planned to eat it with his friends when they entered the dungeon to do missions, but in the later period he basically stayed with Elvia and had no time to eat, so he hasn't finished eating yet.
The two tables were filled with food. Anyway, you won’t get too full in the game world, so you can eat as much as you want.
There were only two of them in the classroom. It should be said that there were only two of them in the entire teaching building hanging out and eating here.
Suddenly, there were banging sounds in the corridor, as if something was jumping forward.
Zhou Zhou heard the noise. After all, it was too quiet here. Two people with very sharp hearing could immediately detect any movement.
I looked up and listened for a long time, and the sound seemed to be getting closer.
Seeing that Elvia didn't react at all, Zhou Zhou stood up and walked towards the door, leaning against the door and watching curiously.
When the green thing appeared in the corridor, Zhou Zhou immediately waved and shouted, "We are here."
A green frog trash can hopped towards them with its eyes open.
It's a Zeus brand trash can.
