The door was slowly opened.
Cai Lu stood up straight, holding the packing tape in both hands, and stood outside the door with a smile on his face.
The door was opened a crack, and a delicate face appeared in the crack.
Is this the Miss Yan who abducted the innocent girl? Honestly, it was quite different from what Lu Cai had imagined. She had originally thought that someone who could trick an innocent girl into entering this devil's den would always have a cold and indifferent look in their eyes.
But through the crack in the door peeked a small, innocent face tinged with melancholy. Her complexion wasn't looking good, with a sickly beauty, like a willow swaying in the wind. Her eyes were dark, and held a hint of worry.
Miss Yan glanced at the packing tape in Lu Cai's hand and frowned. "You're one minute and thirty-seven seconds late. I can't give you a good review—"
Good reviews? Lu Cai was puzzled.
Miss Yan frowned even deeper: "Even if you cry, I won't give you a good review!" After saying that, she leaned forward and took the packing bag from Cai Lu's hand.
Before closing the door, she also threw the small tag she had torn off the packing tape outside the door.
Lu Cai was frozen in place by the sound of a door slamming. After a while, he squatted down to look at the small sign on the ground.
"Outstanding employee selection form?" Cai Lu muttered to himself.
She turned over the explanation on the back of the card and learned that every employee in the hotel needed to be rated by guests. If they received seven positive reviews in a week, they would be named "Excellent Employee" for the week.
She seemed to know the content of the mission of this side story.
She picked up the card and put it in her pocket. This time she was one minute and thirty-nine seconds late because she had stopped at the staircase window to avoid the hunchbacked man.
This means that the time between the player receiving the food delivery task and the delivery is just right, and there is no delay on the road.
Since she has completed the first task, she is not in a hurry to go back to get a new task. Now she can take advantage of the time to look around.
The footsteps just now came from deeper in this corridor. Was it a ghost NPC? Or were they Yue Xiaoyan and Shi Rukui coming in?
She walked slowly towards the end of the corridor. The data on the carpet was normal, and there was no sign of activity inside the door.
When she walked to the end step by step, she found that it was a dead end and there was a glass window at the end of the corridor.
It seems that in the side story, the background stage quoted is not equivalent to the real world. Lu Cai stopped and could only turn around and walk back.
She took a step forward, but before she turned around, she felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up. It wasn't a cold wind or chill, but a fear that came from the bottom of her heart, as if if she turned around, she would see death.
She froze in place, as if she could avoid the danger behind her forever if she didn't turn around.
Unfortunately, the sand-buried method couldn't save her. A sword rustled from its sheath, and a flickering shadow swept across the wall beside her. Lu Cai drew his dagger and slammed sideways into the sweeping blade.
It was a sharp, long, straight knife, its blade narrow and long, gleaming silver. Under the cold white light, the blade was spotless.
The tremendous force of the blade caused Lu Cai to stumble backward and hit the wall directly. Dust fell behind him and the bricks and stones seemed to crack.
The red barrier protecting her back flickered and then faded.
Lu Cai followed the long sword and saw clearly the person who attacked him.
He was a young man in his early twenties, wearing a gray linen Tang suit. The buttons of the coat were unbuttoned, and he wore a pure white cotton and linen lining underneath.
His short black hair was smooth and compliant, with a few strands of hair on his forehead half covering his eyes. His skin was fair, but not as sickly pale as Lu Cai's.
What Lu Cai would never forget was that pair of scarlet eyes. They were as red as the rosy clouds that filled the sky at dusk, and as if a paintbrush was stained with blood and then fell on the white paper, outlining the outline of the eyes.
The deep red scar that extended from the bottom of his right ear, passed through his throat, and spread into his collar completely awakened Lu Cai's memory.
In the community field, she had seen this person!
In the open space of the sixth-floor shopping street, he sat on a public bench outside the crowd.
He also entered the dungeon? Why would he attack me?
Lu Cai stared at him, but found that he couldn't even see his data!
The long knife pressed against the dagger, cutting across the dagger's sharp blade. There was a sharp clanging sound, and even sparks flashed when the metal touched.
The opponent drew back the long sword, turned his wrist slightly, and the direction of the blade changed, chopping straight towards Lu Cai's head.
Lu Cai's arm, which was holding the dagger, was numb from the shock, and his back was also sore.
Even without analyzing his data, Lu Cai could be sure that he was sent by the KB game administrator. Like the red-eyed black windbreaker, he was also a "scavenger."
But after one move, you can feel that the person in front of you is more powerful than the man with red eyes and black windbreaker.
As the "waste" in this game, is she destined to be cleaned up again and again?
Lu Cai dodged sideways, but the blade was too fast and she looked a little embarrassed. But before she could steady her feet, the blade changed direction and slashed sideways.
He had no fixed moves and completely ignored the attack of the previous move. He was too arbitrary. However, the sharpness of the long sword in his hand could not be concealed. Every move was fatal and made it impossible to defend against it.
Seeing the blade changing direction and slashing towards him, Lu Cai could only raise the dagger held in reverse again and block the blow head-on.
The opponent drew his sword and attacked again. Lu Cai could only dodge hastily, but there was no way to avoid it in the narrow corridor.
The sound of blades clashing echoed in the corridor. Beads of sweat appeared on Lu Cai's forehead. Although he appeared calm and at ease, his heart was in a mess.
Before she even understood the rules of the KB game, she had already met the fourth scavenger.
It can be seen that for the main system and managers of KB games, her existence has become the source of disruption to the development of the game. That is what Qin Yu once said, Lu Cai is the "virus" in this game.
She began to think carefully about her encounter with these "scavengers" -
The first man in black windbreaker was seen in the water, but the real fight took place in the submarine branch. Later, when he came out of the branch, he was also attacked by him.
The second and third places were encountered in the community.
And this linen Tang suit in front of me, the first time it was in the community, and now it is in the side story...
What is the pattern?
The blade brushed past his forehead, causing a slight heat between his eyebrows and a slight stinging pain in his forehead.
The man in the linen Tang suit in front of him kicked, but Lu Cai crossed his arms in front of him, just in time to block the kick.
The bones in her forearms ached, her arms hit her chest, and a mouthful of hot blood surged in her throat. She stepped back, her back hitting the windowsill, and the glass and window frame broke almost simultaneously.
There was nothing behind her, and broken glass hit her shoulder. The sky outside the window was cold and white with a hint of gray.
The cold wind sobered Lu Cai up. The second floor was not high and she would soon hit the ground. Because the protective mechanism on her body was a little unreliable, she didn't want to lose her limbs.
He swung his arm, holding the dagger in reverse, and the dagger pierced the concrete wall. Lu Cai took advantage of the situation and grasped the dagger with both hands, stepping onto the wall with both feet, using his limbs to stabilize his body.
Lu Cai looked down and saw he was less than half a meter from the ground. He stepped on the wall, pulled out the dagger with all his strength, and pushed off to land smoothly.
A black shadow flashed above her head, and the man in a linen Tang suit jumped out from the windowsill and landed not far in front of her.
Looking at his two long legs, Lu Cai even had time to get distracted. In the past, when watching TV dramas and movies, he would scream because of the long legs that filled the screen. Who could have known that such beautiful long legs kicking at the body could bring about an extreme bone fracture experience——
Her arms were trembling slightly. She was so busy saving herself that she didn't realize how much pain her arm bones were in.
However, the person has been replaced this time. Does this mean that the man in the black windbreaker has been infected and injured and can no longer carry out the mission?
From this we can see that although these scavengers are powerful, they are not completely invincible.
At least in this dungeon quest, the opponent's actions must be restricted, otherwise they would not attack her when she was alone.
Alone? Lu Cai's eyes lit up. So that's how it is...
There was lush grass on the ground, and the tips of the grass drooped when the cool breeze blew.
The soles of his shoes pressed against the grass leaves as Lu Cai watched the other person rushing towards him, the hem of his gray coat swaying rapidly in the wind.
She stood up and raised her hands to create an arc barrier.
The long sword's sharp edge slashed against the barrier. Dark clouds gathered and rolled in the sky, and the wind on the grass grew stronger. The blade cut through the red barrier, sparks flew, and a crack appeared in the barrier.
It was only to be expected that the barrier could not stop it.
At the moment the barrier shattered, Lu Cai raised his hand to create another barrier, and at the same time released a faint, imperceptible red light.
At present, she couldn't win by force, so she had to find a way to escape -
Hmm? The path on the left leads to the back door of the hotel. Further out is where the hunchbacked security guard had buried the cook. She had to get back to the front desk, take on a few more quests, get good reviews quickly, and leave this side quest!
It’s too dangerous to cross the branch line alone!
When the second barrier shattered, Lu Cai swung his dagger and stabbed at the opponent.
This momentum is simply a desperate fight, as if he knows he is no match for his opponent and just wants to fight to the death. So his attack is ruthless, going straight for the enemy's chest, without even caring about self-protection!
As expected, the opponent withdrew his attack and hooked the handle of the knife back to block the dagger.
Lu Cai took advantage of this opportunity, erected a barrier half a person's height, and slammed into the figure in the linen Tang suit in front of him.
This barrier was strong and swept across directly, successfully tripping the opponent.
She took the opportunity to leap away and ran towards the chosen path.
I don’t know how these scavengers found her. What if there is a main system behind her that is cheating for her? Wouldn’t she be able to hide anywhere?
I was so worried that I couldn't see a way out, but I was running as fast as I could.
She ran along the path and approached the back door of the hotel. Opposite the back door was the iron gate of the hotel's backyard wall. There was an iron chain hanging on the iron gate, and a large iron lock was hung on the chain, but it was not locked.
But outside the iron gate, there was a gray haze, as if surrounded by thick fog, and even the path could not be seen clearly.
There was only one hotel on the map for this side story, and Lu Cai was surprised that the grass within the wall was also counted as part of the hotel.
There is definitely no way out from this iron gate.
She didn't stop and rushed into the hotel.
She ran all the way into the hall and bumped into a hunchbacked man who had changed into a security uniform and was about to go to the garage at the door to patrol.
The other person's eyes were cold as he glanced at Lu Cai, then chuckled twice.
This was the third time she had encountered him in the dungeon. Lu Cai thought to himself, could it be that God couldn't stand it anymore and wanted her to teach this guy a few more lessons?
After walking around the front desk and past the lounge door, she saw Xiaoxiao curled up on the sofa, her body trembling slightly, and she seemed to be sobbing.
Cai Lu thought of the look Manager Liu had given her when she left, and she couldn't help but clench her fists. She had thought that since it was daytime business hours, Manager Liu would probably be more restrained...
Even though she knew that everything in this side story was a fact that had already happened, no matter what she did, she could not save Xiaoxiao in reality.
But now that she was here, she couldn't just stand by and watch.
She frowned, clenched her fists, hesitated for a moment, and walked towards the lounge.
