Chapter 349: The Terrifying Livestream Room (4)
The man who just spoke is named Qiao Cheng. He said he has already played through this live stream seven times.
“I know all the rules here and can help you survive. Half points for a life, this is a good deal.”
After Qiao Cheng finished speaking, the newcomers all agreed. Qiao Cheng looked at Wen Wan and said, "What about you? Do you want to cooperate with me? I'll guarantee you'll be fine."
Wen Wan shook her head. "No need, thank you."
"You should know that in the horror live streaming room, the death rate of newcomers is the highest."
"Need not."
"Heh, don't regret it later, or it won't be a deal worth half the points anymore."
The viewers in the live stream.
—I know this Qiao Cheng. He's a veteran player who's played seven rounds. Following veteran players will greatly increase your chances of survival. This Chen Yao is too stupid.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. When Qiao Cheng encounters danger, he won't hesitate to push the newcomer out to his death.
But if he doesn't follow the veteran players, Chen Yao will die even faster.
—Not necessarily. Chen Yao managed to escape from the monster; her luck is incredible.
In everyone's eyes, Wen Wan's escape from the monster was due to luck; no one believed that she controlled the monster through her own abilities.
After breakfast, there is free time for everyone until lunch.
"But remember, don't go to the top floor. No one who goes there comes out alive," Gao Wen told Wen Wan.
Wen Wan nodded.
Wen Wan asked the system what was on the top floor, and the system said it was the owner of the castle, but it didn't know the specifics. The little thing it had eaten was too low-level to know anything about it.
That's something the host has to figure out for themselves.
However, if you want to play it safe, the best approach is to avoid places that are full of danger.
Wen Wan followed Gao Wen and asked curiously, "If it's a duplicate, then wouldn't the veteran players take away all the clues they know? That's so unfair, isn't it?"
Gao Wen laughed and said, "How could that be? Every live stream has similar rules, but the clues and details are different. Even the monsters and NPCs that appear are not always the same. The game world is very large. If you really want to farm experience points like this, you might have to do it dozens of times and still not be able to explore all the secrets of the castle."
Wen Wan: "I see."
Wen Wan learned from Gao Wen that the castle had once been the home of a nobleman, who later committed suicide. After that, the castle had a new owner, but strangely, that new family also suddenly committed suicide one day.
After that, no matter who moved in, they would mysteriously commit suicide, so everyone felt that the castle was haunted and that the ghost of the castle's first owner was in the castle, cursing everyone who entered it.
This is the background of the castle.
However, this may not be true, because no one has ever seen the so-called owner of the castle.
"What we need to find is any clue that can increase our points. If we come across a clue, the guidance system will notify us and then give us points."
Wen Yan: "..."
She's numb; her guidance system has been devoured. How is she supposed to gain points now?
Gao Wen searched everywhere for clues, while Wen Wan began to complain about the system, "Do you even have a points-based system?"
system:【……】
Damn it, I forgot about that.
It only absorbed the memories of that useless system, but it didn't have the function of adding points!
[Host, I'll figure something out. You should look for clues first.]
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan looked around, then touched everything in the room. "Any clues?"
System: [Almost done, please wait a moment.]
"What are you doing?"
System: [I am copying Gao Wen's guidance system.]
"What?"
System: [These low-level systems usually have fixed, largely identical data. I'll copy one to give you extra points, and I guarantee no one will notice.]
Wen Yan: "..."
You should have said so earlier! You made her worry for so long, but nothing happened.
After a while, a copy of Wen Wan's guidance system came into play and showed Wen Wan the points panel.
Points: 0.
Then Wen Wan picked up a notebook.
A beep.
[Notebook found*1, reward 1 point.]
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan opened the notebook. It was a little girl's diary, with round, chubby handwriting that was quite amusing. It recorded her daily life.
The little girl's name is Gao Han.
There is an older brother, an older sister, and parents in the family. It is a very warm family. Gao Han's diary is full of happy things.
It was torn out of the last page, and it was violently torn out, leaving only a corner with the word "death" on it.
Wen Yan: "..."
That's strange.
Discover the secret of the last page of the diary and earn five points.
Wen Wan took the diary with her and then touched other things. She didn't get any points from many of them. The last things that earned her points were a plush duck hidden in the cabinet, which was Gao Han's birthday gift and his last birthday gift. The date was the same as the last day recorded in the diary. There was also a family photo. The family in the photo looked very happy, but none of them were smiling. It was as if they had been forced to stand in front of the camera for a photo.
Soon it was lunchtime, and Gao Wen returned and went downstairs to eat with Wen Wan.
Gao Wen: "Have you found any clues?"
Wen Wan: "Found a diary."
"You're lucky. I only found a tiny clue. Sigh, it's really too difficult. I'm afraid I won't be able to get out this time."
"Why are you so determined to go out? Going to the next level will only bring new dangers. Staying here might allow you to live longer."
Gao Wen: "..."
Looking at Wen Wan, he said, "What you said makes sense, but I still want to leave. My daughter is waiting for me at home."
Wen Wan: "Then good luck, you will definitely be able to leave safely, and your daughter will definitely be reunited with you."
Thank you, I hope so.
The others also came downstairs; some looked happy, while a few looked unhappy.
Qiao Cheng and several other new recruits who were attached to him were sorting through clues, and judging from the wary expressions on the faces of the others, they were clearly not prepared to share the clues.
The housekeeper has arrived.
"Distinguished guests, I will be taking someone out to pick someone up this afternoon. Who would like to come with me? I will give her a gift."
No one spoke.
Gao Wen: "This is a selection process for those who are destined to die; you absolutely must not go."
Wen Wan felt it was very dangerous, and suddenly, Qiao Cheng pointed at her, "Butler, Chen Yao wants to go with you."
Wen Yan: "???"
Damn it, there are always treacherous people trying to harm me. She did nothing, said nothing, and looked at the steward, "I didn't—" However, the steward pretended not to see her refusal, and that was how the matter was settled. She became the innocent victim who was framed.
