Chapter 123: Horror in the Garden (1) 1.0.1 Phase Test...
At around one in the morning, Gao Mengtang had finished one-fifth of the painting. He stretched and went back to his room to sleep.
Passing by Wei Wei's room, I found that the light was still on. Looking inside, I saw Wei Wei holding a mouse, facing a computer and a tablet, with a frown on his face, while three black clay puppets were applying essential oil to the shiny wooden floor.
"Thank you for your hard work!" said Gao Mengtang.
Wei Wei looked up at him and said, "It's not hard. Please come and reply to these emails, Chief."
Gao Mengtang: “…Hmm.”
You shouldn't talk too much.
He took the tablet and started reading it while lying on the sofa.
Most of the emails were sent from small and medium-sized camps. From Wang Yang's unbridled praise, the main point was extracted: they wanted to become sworn brothers with Gao Mengtang.
In order not to affect Yue Fan's reputation, he needs to tell them warmly, sincerely, tactfully and implicitly: You are not worthy, next one.
After just replying to two emails, Gao Mengtang was already in a trance, staring blankly at the screen with his big eyes, not moving an inch.
"Your vision in reality is 5.2, please don't pretend to be blind." Wei Wei reminded quietly.
Gao Mengtang: "Uh, is that so?"
Ding-ling. Another email came. When Gao Mengtang saw the title, he immediately became more serious.
The title has only two words: Help!!!
: Blind man, I am [004] Shu Weng, my name is Weng Moyun. I am being hunted by a group of people and have nowhere else to go. I can only ask you for help. I want to escape to the dark nest in Zhongzhou.
:I wonder if you can receive this email. Girls who love reading will have good luck. Bless me.
Gao Mengtang immediately stood up and said, "Weng Moyun is in danger, let's go save her."
"Who is Weng Moyun?" Wei Wei didn't even raise his head.
“I don’t know, but look at this email.”
Wei Wei glanced at it and said, "Mr. Blind, we receive hundreds of such spoof emails every day. You don't have to take them seriously."
Halfway through his words, Wei Wei read it again carefully and found an encrypted folder with the title: "Black Gull Assassination List September Edition, 366 New Era"
The last one on the list was [004 Shu Weng] Weng Moyun.
"Heiou wants to kill her." Wei Wei frowned.
Gao Mengtang: "How do you have Heiou's assassination list?"
"I have worked for Hei Ou for more than two years, and Duan Song has worked for Hei Ou for a full year. He is also Hei Ou's killer. If he wants Hei Ou's assassination list, it will be easy." Wei Wei immediately stood up and put on his windbreaker. He was not interested in saving people, but he was very interested in going against Yin Mingwu.
"Too many people will only make things worse. Call three more people and let's go to the Dark Nest now."
*
[Dark Nest] is actually a zoo. After the advent of the Black Tower game, monsters from the dungeon frequently spawned here. There was no one within a ten-mile radius, and terrifying monsters were lurking in the darkness. Therefore, it was called the Dark Nest by players.
Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the Dark Nest and immediately realized something was wrong.
A boundless wall of lavender light reaching up to the sky blocked the crowd.
"What is this?" Bai Jie asked.
Wei Wei shook his head: "I have never seen it before."
He released a black clay puppet, which passed through the light wall. After a moment, Wei Wei said, "I have lost control of it. It has entered another dimension."
The wall of light did not harm the black mud man. It jumped around inside it, its movements unaffected.
"Charge in!" Hellen raised his spear, "We want justice, and we will never sit idly by and watch the evil deeds of Black Gull!"
He led the way, and the others followed him through the light wall. Just as they stood firm, they heard the system prompt:
"You have entered the test copy 1.0.1 [Garden Horror]"
Participating players: [004 Bookkeeper] [038 Spy] [985 Class Teacher] [233 Tamer] [900 Collapser]
[000 Blind Man][101 Purifier][666 Devil][374 Thief][099 Knight]
"The copy capacity has reached the upper limit and is closed to the public."
System: "The 1.0.1 phase test copy is different from the public beta copy. After finding the narrow door, you can leave at any time."
“There is no main quest or quest reward in the 1.0.1 phase test copy. You can still kill monsters to get rewards. Achievements can be obtained in the test copy.”
"Have fun gaming."
"Remember not to let your spirit value reach zero."
After internal beta testing and public beta testing, the next step should be to launch the game.
Could it be that the copy they entered was a test copy before the official launch?
What will happen when the game is officially launched?
"Everyone, be careful." Wei Wei said, "Spies, class teachers, animal trainers, and collapsers are all core members of the Black Gull."
Among them, [038 Spy] is their old acquaintance, the leader of the Black Gull Public Opinion Team, Scarlett. Her skill [Precise Positioning] can randomly lock the coordinates of a player for 5 seconds.
Wei Wei: "After I left, [985 class teacher] took over the position of Director of Human Resources Department of Heigull. She is very difficult."
[985 Class Teacher] has a particularly psychological passive skill: [Surveillance Behind Glass]
Skill Description: I'm at the back door glass, I'm watching you.
: After the class teacher appears, the enemy player will continue to lose spirit value. The closer the distance, the faster the speed of losing spirit value.
[233 Tamer] can communicate with animals, making it easier to gain their favorability, and can thrive in the zoo. And [900 Collapser] can consume his own spirit value and lead all friendly players to teleport to a designated location. Combined with Scarlett's [Precise Positioning], the speed of pursuit is terrifying.
"I'm here by chance. I'm going to teach the Collapser a lesson," said Wei Wei.
Duan Song: "Why?"
Wei Wei's expression was extremely ugly: "He is a homosexual."
Duan Song was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into laughter.
Gao Mengtang first summoned the Hundred-Eyed Wizard. On the way to the Dark Nest, he fed the Hundred-Eyed Wizard two 0th-level ancestral bones. Now, summoning the Hundred-Eyed Wizard only reduces the mental value by 1 point every 5 seconds, and Gao Mengtang can continue to have normal vision while the Hundred-Eyed Wizard exists.
It’s been a long time since I could see clearly in a copy.
Five people and one blueberry tree, stepping on the moonlight all over the ground, quietly sneaked into the Dark Nest Zoo.
Not long after walking out, he heard a tabby cat let out a sharp "meow". It was so scared that it arched its back, its fur stood on end, and it stared at the Hundred-Eyed Wizard with a look of horror.
Gao Mengtang: "The cat seems very scared."
"Of course I would be afraid when I see a moving plant," said Duan Song.
Wei Wei made a gesture, signaling them to keep quiet: "This cat may be a tip-off to the trainer. Let's follow it quietly."
*
"There are five more players on the player list. What are they doing here?" Si Jiali had a look of despair on his face as if he was working overtime. "Gao Mengtang, Wei Wei, and Duan Song are all here."
The Collapser played with a dark red floating ball in his palm: "Blind pretty boy? I've wanted to meet him for a long time. Hurry up and locate him."
"Wait," the trainer said. He licked the grass for a while, and a tabby cat came out and rubbed his legs.
"What did you say?" The trainer had a face full of flesh but a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
He can understand animal language, but most animals don't have strong expressive abilities and can only convey basic information.
The man and the cat meowed at each other for a long time, and the trainer's face changed.
"Lihua said that it saw an incomprehensible and terrifying existence."
Refers to a blueberry tree that can walk on its roots.
Scarlett: "How scary is it?"
"It's beyond common sense and I've never seen anything like it. His actions are horrible and evil."
Hearing words like "horrible" and "beyond common sense", Sijia Li naturally thought of Gao Mengtang. His actions were terrifying, was it a conspiracy? What were they going to do?
Scarlett: "I suspect the blind man has a terrible conspiracy."
Tamer: “Me too.”
The homeroom teacher pushed his glasses with his pointer and said, "The test copy [Garden Terror] is beyond the syllabus and cannot add points... I mean, getting the mission reward."
"If we weren't hunting down Shu Weng, we wouldn't be doing this book. What is the purpose of the blind man coming here to attend after-school classes?"
None of them thought that Gao Mengtang came to save Weng Moyun. Firstly, Weng Moyun was a lower-middle level player and did not pose any threat. The four of them were surprised that Yin Mingwu wanted to kill her.
But leaders just do whatever they want, which is normal. They are too lazy to think about it.
Secondly, Weng Moyun and Yue Fan have nothing in common, so why would he come all the way to save a stranger whom he had only met once?
After much thought, there is only one credible reason: Gao Mengtang is an enemy of Heiou, and they are targeting the four members of Heiou!
"The pretty boy wants to kill us?" the Collapser said in shock.
The head teacher nodded: "The probability of the answer being correct is very high."
The five people quickly reached a consensus: hide if possible and never provoke Gao Mengtang.
After all, Yin Mingwu only paid overtime for the assassination of Weng Moyun. They must be crazy to be looking for work to do when there is no work.
"Listen to the key points," the head teacher knocked on the glass of the exhibition area with a pointer, "We know the location of the narrow door. Kill Weng Moyun as soon as possible and leave quickly."
"Now, review the test points related to the narrow gate and start taking action immediately."
The four recalled it in their minds...
The memories ended, and they left quietly along the tour route. The moonlight stretched their shadows very long.
"Wait, where is the narrow gate?" the Collapser suddenly asked.
Homeroom teacher: "Didn't you listen carefully in class?!"
She repeated it quietly.
*
Behind him, in the lush green belt, there are five heads hidden.
Bai Jie closed his eyes slightly, and when he used his skills, a cool air flowed around his body.
His skill [Steal Everything] can steal items, favorability, trust, or a memory.
Just now, he used his personal skills to steal what the Collapser was remembering: the location of the narrow gate.
"The narrow door is hidden in the magical creatures exhibition area," Bai Jie said, "There used to be magical animals made of three-dimensional holographic projections. After the invasion of the Black Tower, the magical creatures exhibition area became extremely dangerous."
"In the magical zoo area, there are a lot of monsters. If you want to appease them, you must play musical instruments..."
"I can play the organ, harp, flute and guitar. I can play them all."
"At the same time, dance for them." Bai Jie continued, "Ordinary singing and dancing will not be enough. It has to be funny enough to make them happy."
Gao Mengtang retracted his hand and looked around.
Just forget about being a clown to amuse yourself.
So, before leaving, they need to get a musical instrument. The guide map shows that there is a high-end Western restaurant in the park, which will play music while guests dine. Maybe you can find a violin or a clarinet there.
"Let's go find Weng Moyun first." Wei Wei said.
