Chapter 122 Players Exchange Meeting (3)
Including Lin Jiu, there were forty-seven players who survived the fourth game.
Since everyone knew Lin Jiu well, he skipped the self-introduction session. The remaining 46 people each introduced themselves, which also took quite a while.
Fortunately, as everyone gradually adapted, they became much more relaxed.
After the self-introductions were completed, everyone chatted for a while.
Lin Jiu was checking the rewards he had obtained in the Biangui Supermarket copy.
He was not fully conscious at the time, so he had no idea what he had gotten.
Seeing that his salary was deducted from the reward for completing the game, Lin Jiu did not react at all. To be honest, it was quite surprising that the salary was not deducted due to the weird points.
He thought about it and checked the detailed information of the bottle of Coke.
Unlimited Refillable Coke (S): One sip reduces the contamination, two sips eliminate it, three sips refresh you, and a full bottle grants five minutes of immunity to strange contamination. Note: There's a cooldown period after each use, so please explore on your own.
It is worthy of being a reward for an S rating. Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly. Although the conditions for triggering immunity to strange pollution are a little difficult, it is not that difficult considering the effect of the trigger.
After all, it is pollution immunity rather than resistance. These two are completely different concepts. Pollution resistance can only offset most of the pollution, but immunity to pollution is equivalent to a short period of invincibility for other players.
However, this cooling time seems like a pitfall...
Lin Jiu lowered his eyes and pondered. Although this reward seemed to be of no use to him, it was an S-level reward after all. Maybe he would need it in the future.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiu decided to give it a try in the game next time.
At this time, Lin Jiu heard someone calling his name. He looked up and found that everyone was looking at him.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Jiu suddenly became a little nervous.
Oh no, I didn't just talk to myself, did I? Did I scare them?
"We are just curious about the difference in rewards for different clearance scores." Charles said.
They had just been talking about the rewards for clearing a level, and naturally, everyone was curious about the rewards received by Lin Jiu, the only one who had received an S rating or above.
"Well... the rewards I get are pretty fixed. Currently, they're a combination of weird items, weird points, and weird contamination immunity."
"Pollution immunity?"
The moment Lin Jiu uttered this word, everyone was slightly stunned.
"Yeah, haven't you ever had it?"
Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Lin Jiu was also stunned.
After knowing what rewards other people would usually receive, Lin Jiu fell silent.
"It seems that only players can obtain pollution immunity, and only those with an S rating or above can get it." Eugene said, touching his chin.
As for pollution resistance, both players and countries can obtain it, but there are conditions.
If the player's clearance score reaches A or above, the country will gain pollution resistance. Although it can be obtained with scores below, it seems to be purely a matter of luck.
"What do you think? Will the strange story about the rules become a reality in the end?" At this time, a player spoke up and asked.
His concerns were groundless. It was fine for players to obtain the two rewards of pollution resistance and immunity, but the fact that the public also obtained pollution resistance made people think too much.
"I remember the game system said it wouldn't come."
"Do you really believe what that thing says?"
“…”
"Maybe it's prepared for ordinary people. After all, the strange rules are becoming a reality now, right?"
The person who spoke was the fourth player from the Sun Country, a woman named Elena. She looked like a strong woman and her voice was very powerful.
Lin Jiu glanced at her, felt that what she said made sense, and nodded twice.
Indeed, when the fog falls, everyone in the surrounded city will continue to experience strange rules. In a sense, strange rules have indeed begun to become reality.
"But even so, there is no guarantee..."
"etc."
Before the player could finish his words, Lin Jiu suddenly interrupted him.
"What, what happened?"
Looking at Lin Jiu, who was frowning and thinking about something seriously, the player couldn't help but get nervous.
"I'm just curious, don't you know that strange rules won't happen?"
Everyone: ???
Seeing this, Lin Jiu was also stunned.
Just now, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have told Xia Minghai and the others that they didn't need to worry about the advent of the rule ghost story. He was originally wondering why they suddenly said this, but now it seems that they didn't know!
At this time, Charles suddenly said: "So that's true? When Mr. Morris told me, I was wondering how leaders of various countries could so rashly believe the strange talk about rules..."
As soon as these words were spoken, most of the players present nodded.
In fact, they had thought about this possibility. After all, the national leaders were not fools. It was just that they always felt that no matter how powerful Lin Jiu was, he could not be so powerful. Moreover, they had watched the live broadcast replay and had not seen Lin Jiu ask about any strange things.
The rest were new players in the fourth game, and their reactions showed that the leader had not yet told them.
Lin Jiu's mouth twitched when he saw this.
Just believe in the leaders of your country!
"So, all the information in the Ghost Story Research Department now comes from you?" Hicks suddenly realized something and looked at Lin Jiu in surprise.
Lin Jiu nodded, "For the most part, that's indeed the case."
Hicks opened his mouth when he heard this, but finally remained silent.
The gap between people and between players is really too big.
There were many players present who came from excellent backgrounds, but these chosen ones also experienced the feeling of being an "ordinary person" in front of Lin Jiu.
"I suddenly feel a lot lighter." Christie leaned back, looked up at the ceiling and said, "I don't know if I'll survive to the end, but when I think about facing the strange rules in reality after the hundredth game..."
He chuckled and shook his head, not continuing.
"But having said that, I have always had a question." The speaker was Reginald, a player from the country of Nicaro. He was in the same dungeon as Lin Jiu at the time and was finally scared to the ground by Lin Jiu.
Everyone looked over, and Reginald lowered his raised hands and asked, "Do you still remember what was said at the beginning when the Rule Strange Tales first appeared?"
"Are you asking what the conditions for advent are as mentioned in the Rules Ghost Stories?" Lin Jiu asked.
Reginald shook his head.
"At the time, the game system said that there were a total of 100 copies of Guigui Weird Stories, and the server shutdown condition was to complete these 100 copies."
"That's right." Oriel from Hans nodded in agreement.
"Think about it, take me for example. I'm currently the fourth-highest player in our country, and I've only cleared the game once. But there are only 96 dungeons left in the game. Even if I survive to the end, I still won't be able to clear enough dungeons."
When these words were spoken, the whole audience was stunned.
