Chapter 278 Bonfire



"Wait a minute!" Qin Feng shouted in a low voice, stopping the actions of several people.

Everyone looked at Qin Feng.

"Let me make it short," Qin Feng said. "First, it's possible that we miscounted from the very beginning. Actually, there's nothing wrong. We're just overreacting."

"Fuck, Boss, why do I feel like your IQ is about the same as that of a blonde girl in a horror movie?"

"I just think that this possibility cannot be ruled out." Qin Feng continued, "Secondly, there is a monster that has infiltrated the player group, but this monster is not yet in a hostile state."

"so what?"

"Without knowing the monster's strength, I feel we can't act rashly. We must find a way to find the monster and then notify the others to surround and destroy it." Qin Feng said, "If we pull the monster out hastily and let it attack and kill people, and if we lose a lot of people, then we will probably be wiped out this time."

"Good idea. So how do you plan to find this monster and notify others?" Xiao Duan asked.

"You call that a good idea?" Xie Xinchen rejected it. "Why not just attack the monsters directly and see who gets unlucky? Losing one or two people won't affect the overall situation. If we can win, we will definitely win. If we can't, then no matter how careful we are, it's useless."

"That's not right," Du Yu said. "In many games, bosses have a set rampage timer. If it exceeds that timer, the boss will instantly kill everyone in the game. The purpose of this is to limit the player's output threshold. The bosses' health is set to match the player's damage..."

"So you think the planner will consider our number of people before assigning this monster a stat?"

"That's possible."

While a few people were still discussing the current situation, Wang Ze had already started observing the bonfires.

Every bonfire is different.

Some of them light the fire by picking up dead branches and weeds from the surrounding area, while others use fuels such as coal, firewood or even fuel oil.

The fires varied in size, and the number of players around also varied.

Soon, Wang Ze discovered the problem.

"Listen carefully, if it's a player, then there's a voice talking!"

Upon hearing this, several people stopped talking and listened carefully to the sounds from the other campfires.

In the dark night, it was difficult to spot the people sitting around the campfire just by looking. But with the hearing ability of a late Qi Refiner, it was easy to discern the content of their conversation!

"Psycho, everyone is talking!"

"Your suggestion is useless!"

Wang Ze said anxiously, "Don't be so quick to criticize me. Think about it, if it's a monster simulated by the game, then what it says will definitely be different from what we're talking about!"

"You mean, real players can talk about all kinds of things, but if you're a monster, you can only talk about things within the limitations of your worldview!"

"Right, right, right! Brother Duan is still very insightful!"

The few of them then quieted down and began to eavesdrop on the conversation around the campfire in the distance.

A few minutes later, Xiao Duan said, "I heard the two people near the river, one was talking about foundation building, and the other was talking about the female NPC."

"I'm also talking about female NPCs here."

"The farthest away, they're discussing the differences between the different cities on the new map..."

"The one closest to us is talking about the animation of Chainsaw Man."

After the story was finished, silence fell around the campfire.

Nothing was gained.

Based on the content of the conversation alone, it is impossible to guess which group of bonfires has a problem.

"Could it be that I really saw it wrong?" Du Yu asked.

"Think about it, which group of bonfires didn't exist in the beginning? Is there a group of bonfires that has that so-called 'sense of disharmony'?"

"Why don't we stop wasting time here? Just attack directly. At worst, we can just log off?" Wang Ze interrupted them.

"When you come online again, you'll be buried in the ground, right?"

Since we are talking about the feeling of incongruity, Xie Xinchen looked at the bonfire in the distance again, trying to find the existence of the "incongruent" bonfire.

Ten seconds later, Xie Xinchen jumped up and exclaimed in a low voice: "Fuck, there are nine bonfires now!!"

"ah!?"

Everyone looked over and counted them one by one, and found that just as Xie Xinchen had said, there was another bonfire!

"Why don't we just log off?" Xie Xinchen suggested.

"I don't know what you're afraid of! Just go watch it by bonfire! You're playing a game and you're scared by monsters? This isn't a horror game!" Wang Ze also stood up. "Let's go, let's do it together, or we won't get separated."

"Are you really leaving?"

"What else? Wait for this bonfire to grow bigger and bigger, and then be surrounded?"

"That makes sense. Let's go." Xiao Duan also took out the Green Bamboo Sword and held it in his hand, ready for battle.

A group of five people stood up, each ready to fight, and moved towards the nearest campfire.

Qin Feng and Xiao Duan walked in the front because they were close combat.

"Watch your step! Don't fall."

I don't know who reminded me.

Xie Xinchen glanced down at his feet and suddenly thought of the video of the player seeing a ghost last time. He shuddered and quickly raised his eyes.

This is not fun to watch!!

The first-person perspective game's rendering of the atmosphere is very realistic.

Moving in this environment is like going out at night in the countryside more than a decade ago with only a dim flashlight. As far as the eye can see, apart from a tiny sliver of light, the rest is complete darkness.

Rich darkness.

Fortunately, there were several companions around.

The five people approached step by step.

At the campfire ahead, the players' conversations could be heard clearly without paying special attention.
