35
Just looking at the announcement information, it is actually impossible to determine the identity of the deceased player.
The last time Tao Sai made her judgment, she did so based on the comments of the player "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi" on the world channel. Now she is still waiting.
About five minutes later, Tao Sai fixed his gaze, and as expected, he had waited for something.
[Only Love Song Without Memory (Lv4)]: Hehehe
[Only Love Song No Memory (Lv4)]: I'm back =^_^=
It was still a very sarcastic statement, but it also basically confirmed that he was the murderer.
It may not be accurate to use the light word "murderer" to describe him. He is no different from a vicious thug.
Tao Sai couldn't imagine how he could be so indifferent to life.
Five minutes ago, he ended a bloody life, and five minutes later he could still speak on the world channel as if nothing had happened and with a cheerful smile on his face.
To what extent has his personality been distorted?
If you think about it carefully, in the apocalypse, players may be more special than ordinary people. He takes away more than just the lives of players.
If the player "Li Du"'s life had not ended here, but he had continued to develop refuge ships, continuously taking in survivors, and continued to develop in a positive direction, then at least several hundred survivors could have found a relatively safe and comfortable shelter during the natural disaster.
A cancer, an extremely dangerous element, suddenly appeared within the player community. It was like the source of a disease; if left unchecked, it would only lead to a terminal illness.
He had set a particularly bad precedent. As more and more players reached level three and unlocked the "Interaction" feature, others were sure to follow suit. Trust among players vanished, and they turned on each other, leading to the collapse of the entire player base.
At this moment, a conversation message suddenly flashed across the world channel in the corner of Tao Sai's eyes.
[Only Love Song No Memory (Lv4)]: Oh, I almost forgot
[Only Love Song Without Memory (Lv4)]: @(cx330), you are a bit naughty
[Only Love Song Wuyi (Lv4)]: Hide well, don't let me catch you
Being suddenly called out, Tao Sai instantly got goosebumps all over his body.
She slowly leaned her back against the side of the car and pinched her Jingmingxue. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
The threat exists and he must be eliminated.
If you want to kill him with one blow, it's better to do it sooner rather than later. The sooner you kill him, the better.
As he kills more and more people and the level gap becomes larger and larger, the risk index will rise sharply if he takes action again.
"Sister Sai, it's time to eat!"
At this moment, An Nan came out of the kitchen door carrying two plates of mixed vegetables. She shouted loudly towards the shore, temporarily bringing Tao Sai, who was distracted, back to reality.
"Okay." Tao Sai responded with a stiff expression.
Zhou Ning also came out of the kitchen and ran over. "Taotao, come here! My mom made your favorite steamed pork ribs with rice flour. You must be starving since you didn't eat all morning."
She stretched out her hand and waved the spoils she had just "stolen".
Tao Sai jumped onto the deck by stepping on the planks and took the chops from her.
I put it in my mouth and took a bite. My teeth penetrated the rice noodles and bit into the meat. It was soft and sticky, fat but not greasy. The sauce was just right, and the fresh aroma of meat filled my mouth.
Tao Sai sighed again. Aunt Li was indeed a gourmet expert. She particularly liked to study cooking after work. Tao Sai and Zhou Ning lived in the same dormitory at the university and enjoyed a lot of benefits together.
The dishes served on the table were evenly matched with meat and vegetables, fresh in color, and looked great.
Everyone sat around in the large empty warehouse, but it was obvious that one large round table was not enough, so Zhou Ning added a small square table so that everyone could sit down.
Not everyone was there yet, as Mother Lin and Lin Kang were still traveling through mountains and rivers, but Lin Yanrang didn't wait and started eating right away.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was relaxed and pleasant, and everyone was immersed in enjoying the food, especially the few newcomers who were very moved as they ate.
Since booking their flight, most of them had been following the news. As time went on, the overwhelming doomsday news hit them, and they began to feel fear, terror, and panic. Whether they could catch the flight became uncertain.
After finally boarding the plane, the fear on board only grew. The plane flew from the northwest to the southeast coast of China, passing through the hardest-hit areas. The wreckage of cities appeared one after another. From 10,000 meters in the air, one could clearly see the advancing tide of insects, engulfing fields, fertile farmland, and villages with an unstoppable momentum. All human resistance seemed powerless, and the only option was to flee for safety.
It was not until the flight landed smoothly and everyone arrived here safely that Zhou Ning arranged beds for everyone, prepared cabinets for personal belongings, and had a large and sumptuous lunch. Only then did the stone in his heart finally fall to the ground.
Tao Sai picked up a piece of potato from under the steamed pork ribs with rice flour. The fat from the pork ribs soaked into the potatoes during the long steaming process, and the potatoes became soft and rotten, going very well with rice. She took a bite of the potato and ate a big mouthful of rice.
Tao Sai raised his eyes.
Grandma Zhou and Grandma Lin, sitting at a corner of the dining table, had common topics because they were of similar age. They talked about the difficult times, the collective era and the new era. Although they spoke different dialects, they could only communicate in poor Mandarin, supplemented by body language. The amazing thing was that the communication was effective.
An Nan's sister-in-law Xia Ruowei is trying to feed her child a wider variety of complementary foods. Living in the end times, it is necessary to get rid of dependence on milk powder as soon as possible. The sooner the stomach and intestines adapt to various types of food, the better.
Mother Lan was humbly asking Li Yinzhu for cooking tips. She had always thought that her daughter had a small appetite, but today she discovered for the first time that her daughter could actually add to her bowl.
Zhou Weixing told a very cold joke. No one took it seriously at first, but he never expected that it had such a strong aftertaste that it made everyone laugh. The usually indifferent Liang Yuanzhou even curled up the corners of his mouth in a rare arc.
As a result, Tao Sai's faith was shaken.
The gap between her and "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi" has already formed. The huge level gap makes it impossible for her to win, and a direct confrontation is like hitting a rock with an egg.
Now she is not just alone, she has a boat full of people to protect and shoulders a huge responsibility to lead them to survive in desperate situations.
She had to weigh the pros and cons and take more things into consideration.
At this moment, the system subtitles suddenly popped up in front of Tao Sai.
【You have triggered a hidden mission. 】
Tao Sai stared at the bold subtitle for a few seconds.
Hidden missions? This should be a new game mechanic. The previous standalone version of "Insect Tide" did not have this feature.
The next second, new subtitles popped up, with detailed instructions for the hidden task.
Hidden Mission: Hunting
Mission Description: An extremely dangerous player appears, with a sin value of 100. Player coordinates: (117°13′14″ E; 32°47′51″ N)
Please eliminate this player within 72 hours.
(Note: All players' initial sin value is 0. It increases by 10 points for each player killed, and 1 point for each character killed. When the sin value reaches 100 points, the player's coordinates are exposed. The sin value automatically decreases by 1 point every hour. When the sin value drops to nodes such as 60, 40, and 20, the player's coordinates are partially or completely hidden.)
Mission Rewards: [Alliance Creation Qualification Card x1], [Golden Skill Blind Box x1], [Extra Skill Slot x1], [Player Resurrection Card x1]
【Do you accept?】
Tao Sai did not rush to accept the task, but carefully analyzed the text description of the hidden task.
Sin value is another new concept. As long as the player kills other players or characters, the sin value will change at any time. When it reaches 100, the coordinates will be automatically exposed, just like this "extremely dangerous player" now.
Tao Sai suddenly thought of something, quickly took out his mobile phone, and searched for the two keywords "Wolong River" and "Feishadu" on the map. This was the location of the player Li Dubao on the world channel.
After checking, it was found that the location completely coincided with the mission coordinates, which indirectly proved that the extremely dangerous player was undoubtedly "Wei Ai Qu Wu Yi".
His sin value reached 100 points, proving that at least 10 people died at his hands.
Of course, according to the law that the sin value decreases over time, the real number is definitely far more than 10.
Over the next 80 hours, if he stops killing players, his Naughtiness will steadily drop below 20, and his coordinates will become completely hidden again.
The hidden mission has a time limit. There will be no mission reward if you kill him after 72 hours.
So the best time to kill him is within 72 hours.
Tao Sai took another careful look at the mission reward, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't tempted.
[Player Resurrection Card], this was the first time she had seen a game item. Its function was easy to guess: two lives. In apocalyptic disasters, having two lives gave her a sense of security.
The [Golden Skill Blind Box] guaranteed a skill of A rank or higher upon opening. Her current two A rank skills already gave her a sense of security. Unlocking another and adding an additional skill slot, then equipping three A rank skills simultaneously... She couldn't even imagine it. She had never fought such a rich battle in her life.
The last one, the [Alliance Creation Qualification Card], is also an item that cannot be purchased in the [Mall]. It can probably be used to form a gang, but she doesn't need it for the time being.
【Do you accept?】
Tao Sai's gaze returned to the options, hanging in the balance.
She noticed that the mission was called "Hunting".
Why hunting?
Do a simple reading comprehension. The key point of "hunting" is "surround", which means to hunt from all sides. This means that she is not the only player who has received this hidden task.
Hunting means besieging "Only Love Qu Wu Yi"?
Tao Sai's eyes flashed and he chose "Yes".
You have accepted the hidden quest [Hunting]. Teammate damage immunity has begun. Players who accept the quest at the same time will automatically form an alliance, becoming immune to each other's damage. The alliance will automatically dissolve upon completion of the quest or expiration of the quest time limit.
The new prompt subtitles were just as she expected. In this hunt, all participating players could work together without any worries because they had only one common enemy.
Tao Sai clenched his hands excitedly.
A new page, [Hunting], appears in the [Interaction] module.
The number of people displayed in the upper right corner of the page is 1.
This should be a chat group for a hunting mission, but she is the only one there at the moment, and she is the only one who has accepted the mission.
The lives of everyone on board, young and old, depended on the refugee ship Deep Sea Fish. Tao Sai was not completely sure, so she would not put all her eggs in one basket.
Based on his previous gaming experience, Tao Sai decided to leave the ship and everyone on board and go to the mission area alone.
Acting alone might not get the support of information and firepower, but it would be much more flexible, whether attacking or retreating. Most importantly, if you are in a desperate situation, you will not be wiped out.
She then opened the [Character] module on the main page and set the character [Zhou Ning] as the first mate of the "Deep Sea Fish". After the main character died, the first mate Zhou Ning would inherit the position, so she would have no worries at all.
