Chapter 207: Scavenger (3) Group Photo
Gao Mengtang was petrified for three seconds, and gently placed the snakeskin bag filled with corpses on the ground: "It must have been painful when you were smashed to death... It's not important now."
"Find the password quickly and leave this damn place. I was wondering why it stinks here." He Lun muttered as he rummaged through a pile of documents. When he turned around, he saw Gao Mengtang putting on a pair of rubber gloves and slowly moving the body out of the snakeskin bag.
The deceased must have been hammered to death, his bones were broken, his skin and muscles were connected, and his whole body was limp. He Lun was shocked: "Brother, what are you doing?! Are you going to tidy up his remains?"
"No, the password should be on him." Gao Mengtang carefully held up the half-rotten and festering head, "Based on the clues in the diary, he should be Brother Liu or Brother Li in the monitoring room. He was murdered and hidden here."
Bai Jie couldn't bear it any longer: "Boss, let me do it."
"I'm here. You guys think it's dirty. I found it." Gao Mengtang took out a smashed cell phone from the corpse's trouser pocket. There were two hundred yuan and a note in the back cover of the phone.
On the note was the password for the monitoring room's computer.
He Lun turned on the computer, turned off the surveillance, and then deleted the surveillance files. Gao Mengtang took off his rubber gloves, sprayed perfume on himself, and also sprayed some on the corpse.
"Some videos were copied from the staff's personal computers and hidden in the hard drive. They were hidden deep enough that if Gao Geng and I hadn't learned a few tricks, I wouldn't have been able to find them." He Lun shook his head, "Shall we open it and take a look?"
"What's so good about the surveillance footage? Just delete it all," said Gao Mengtang.
Bai Jie stared at Gao Mengtang for a few seconds and chuckled. Wei Xiangchen also smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Gao Mengtang was at a loss: "What's wrong?"
"Personal computer, hidden video." He Lun emphasized again. Seeing Gao Mengtang's confused and innocent look, he couldn't help laughing.
Gao Mengtang: "Am I funny now?"
"It's a little funny, Chief Gao," Wei Xiangchen patted his shoulder, "You don't understand what kind of videos are hidden in the computers of most ordinary men."
After a few seconds of reaction, Gao Mengtang suddenly realized something. He turned his head away and frowned, "Let's delete it too, to give him a clear name."
After saying that, he sprayed a few more times of perfume on the corpse.
He Lun opened the folder and scrolled down twice. His smile gradually disappeared. "Oh, we are really dirty this time. It's not a color video. It's really a copied surveillance video."
The staff specially copied the surveillance footage in the forest park to their own computers. There must be something special about it. He Lun randomly clicked on a video.
The four of us looked at it attentively for 30 seconds, but didn't find anything special. It was just a queue of tourists entering the forest park.
"Why save this surveillance copy?" He Lun scratched his head and clicked on a new video.
It was still a forest garden, with a crowd of people gathering beside the torii gate. It was daytime, the sun was shining brightly, and occasionally the cries of wronged souls drifted in, scaring the tourists to scream.
The other videos were mostly the same, all captured by tourists, and they really couldn't find anything special about them.
1 hour remaining.
"Copy these videos to my mobile phone and delete those in the computer." Gao Mengtang said. They quickly deleted the surveillance footage and the system prompted them that the mission had been completed. The four of them immediately reunited with Wei Wei and the others.
"Avi, how did you complete your mission?" Gao Mengtang walked in front and asked with a smile.
The four of them were wiping the blood off the stair railings with resentful looks on their faces. Lin Li was the first to raise his head and stared straight at Gao Mengtang.
Her eyes were deep and dull, like a deep well with no end in sight. Gao Mengtang was startled: "What, what happened?"
"Prophet, be careful." Lin Li said slowly, "The one you have always trusted has always betrayed you..."
Gao Mengtang: "Eh? Who is it?"
Lin Li lowered his head and continued to wipe the handrail, mumbling something to himself.
The others were no longer surprised by Lin Li's bizarre behavior, and they turned a deaf ear to what she said. Wei Wei had a black clay puppet to do the work for him, and he was unwilling to move at all. He sat on the stairs, smoking absent-mindedly.
"Are you worried about something?" Gao Mengtang held a rag and helped them wipe off the blood.
"You don't have to do these dirty and tiring jobs," Wei Wei casually flicked the ash from his cigarette, and the black clay puppet quickly caught it with his hands. "Only the stairs and handrails are left to be cleaned. Our task will be completed soon."
The task panel showed that Yin Mingwu and his team had found 10 bodies and had dealt with them all.
Wei Wei raised his eyes and looked around, locking onto a lonely little red dot in the distance and four red dots clustered together.
The single red dot is the location of the hostile NPC Rabbit Face Craftsman, and the four red dots gathered together are the locations of Yin Mingwu and his team. Now, the Rabbit Face Craftsman is moving quickly towards Yin Mingwu and his team.
"Master Wei, why don't you move a bit?" Wolanbei complained, "Your puppet has left everything to you, so you don't get tired at all. What are you doing? Looking up into the distance, expressing your poetic feelings?"
Wei Wei ignored him and continued looking at the red dot in the distance, his eyes moving with it.
Gao Mengtang could tell that Wei Wei was using his passive skill [Loyalty, Treachery, Good and Evil] to lock onto the location of the hostile NPC, so he asked, "Where is the Rabbit Mask Craftsman?"
"Yin Mingwu's side." Wei Wei threw the cigarette butt into the hand of the black clay puppet.
Gao Mengtang wiped the blood with a rag and suddenly said "Oops!" "We haven't shared the information in the Monster Book with Yin Mingwu and the others yet. They haven't encountered the Rabbit Mask Craftsman before. Will there be any accidents?"
"I have to stay away from you. I have a high degree of astigmatism," Wolanbei said casually. His sniper's eyes were sharper than an eagle's. "Your holy father halo will blind my vicious eyes."
Despite this, Gao Mengtang believed that they and Yin Mingwu had entered the same copy and had temporarily reached a comrade-in-arms relationship, and should help each other at critical moments.
"Let's vote by raising our hands. Those who agree to share the information with Yin Mingwu, please raise your hands." Gao Mengtang said, raising his arms high.
There were seven people left, some were working, some were smoking. Wei Xiangchen raised his hand tentatively, but Wei Wei glared at him and he quickly retracted his hand.
"Well, okay." Gao Mengtang put down his hand awkwardly.
*
"Our mission has been completed, and Gao Mengtang and Wei Wei's groups have also completed their missions." Yin Mingwu moved his shoulders.
The three people he brought with him, one of whom had an ID card of [077 Ghoul], looked no different from a stall owner in a vegetable market, and was dressed simply. She ate ten corpses in one breath, and now she was lying on the ground with a full stomach, burping.
"Old Yin, are we leaving?" asked [Farmer 909]. He looked very similar to Yin Mingwu, also dressed in rags, with thick knuckles, calloused fingertips, and dark skin.
Yin Mingwu threw a bottle of digestive medicine to the ghoul and glanced at the main building of Linyuan. "Wei Wei has accepted a side quest. He can't leave, and we can't leave first. Don't forget why we came to this dungeon. Our goal is to pass the level. More people means more strength."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three members of Heiou all looked at Yin Mingwu with somewhat sad expressions.
After hesitating for a while, [120 Miracle Doctor] said hesitantly: "Old Yin, are you okay? Let me take a look at you."
"I won't die. I'm fine." Yin Mingwu waved his hands irritably. "Divine doctor, ghoul, farmer, shut up. I trust you three the most. Do you hear me?"
The three remained silent.
Half a year ago, Yin Mingwu contracted a strange "disease" - his ID card gradually broke into pieces.
No Black Tower player has ever had this strange disease, and no information can be found. Yin Mingwu has long been the number one player on the honor list, and his body has been highly integrated with his identity card. If his identity card is broken, Yin Mingwu will die.
Why did Yin Mingwu have this problem with his ID card? No one knew... except Yin Mingwu himself.
Yin Mingwu seemed to know why he was sick, but he never mentioned the cause and would get angry with anyone who asked. They didn't dare to say anything.
Yin Mingwu only said this copy, and his illness can still be cured.
Suddenly, the farmer heard a wolf howling.
[909 Farmer] Passive Identity Skill [Wolf is Coming]
Skill Description: The wolf is coming to destroy your crops and livestock!
: When the enemy prepares to attack, [909 Farmer] will hear a wolf howl.
"There's danger!" The farmer jumped up and said, "Old Yin, run!"
Yin Mingwu knocked the ground with his cane in annoyance: "Run? Why are you running? Is my reputation as the number one player just a boast?"
The next second, a shadow flashed over and grabbed the ghoul's bulging belly.
The rabbit-faced craftsman's attack speed was extremely fast, like lightning. The others didn't even have time to react. Yin Mingwu raised his crutch and hit the rabbit-faced craftsman on the back.
In a very short time, Yin Mingwu made a clean and neat move without any panic. It seemed that the old man just used his cane to bluff and hit the rabbit-faced craftsman, but he actually leaned to the side and fell to the ground, like a stupid roe deer, motionless.
[013 Soul Splitter] Passive Identity Skill [Soul Out of Body]
Skill Description: Any attack of the Soul Slicer has the "Soul Out of Body" effect, which can make the attacked person temporarily lose the ability to move. This effect can be stacked up to 20 times.
Note: In some rare cases (such as when the enemy uses advanced purification or defensive skills), the Soul Out-of-Body ability will become ineffective.
Yin Mingwu used his cane to hit the rabbit-faced craftsman twice again: "You little bastard, keep attacking me by surprise."
The doctor immediately gave the rabbit-faced craftsman a shot of anesthetic and tied him up like a dumpling with a mental hospital protective suit: "Is this the NPC that Wei Wei wants to capture alive?"
"Ask Wei Wei." Yin Mingwu took a photo and sent it to Wei Wei, but found that Wei Wei had blocked him.
"Oh my god?" Yin Mingwu laughed angrily, "On the contrary, Tiangang, the employee dared to block his former boss. Ghoul, ask Wei Wei."
When sending the message, the divine doctor didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing the rabbit mask craftsman wearing a mask, he stretched out his hand and tried to take off the mask.
——Yin Mingwu hit his hand with his cane and scolded: "Don't move! Are you tired of living? How many lives do you want?"
Monsters in the Black Tower game always have some "reverse scales", Yin Mingwu has seen many of them. The rabbit-faced craftsman wears a mask, can't it be for aesthetics?
The doctor quickly retracted his hand, and at this moment, the reminder sound of the Monster Book rang in his ears...
"Old Yin, you saved my life," the doctor said with lingering fear, "You can't touch the mask of this thing, or he will go berserk!"
Yin Mingwu didn't say anything, but looking at his expression, he was complacent and arrogant, thinking: You can't go wrong if you listen to me.
The other side.
When Wei Wei received the message from the zombie, he frowned, thinking that he forgot to block her when he resigned from Heiou.
When I clicked on the message, I saw a photo of a rabbit mask craftsman.
: Lao Kui, we have captured an NPC, is this your mission target?
"Yin Mingwu and the others are helping you!" Gao Mengtang was very happy. "Don't think too badly of people. Everyone has two sides..."
Before he could finish his words, Wei Wei replied: I'm not sure, can you take off his mask and see?
"The mask of the rabbit mask craftsman cannot be touched." Gao Mengtang said, "Awei, what are you doing..."
Soon, Gao Mengtang realized that Wei Wei was deliberately tricking them.
"We can't do this!" Gao Mengtang said firmly. He snatched Wei Wei's phone, deleted all the messages, and replied to them with a "Thank you!" and attached an emoticon of a dancing stickman.
After thinking about it, he added another
: Never touch the NPC's mask, the mask is his Achilles' heel.
After receiving the news, Yin Mingwu and the other three looked at each other for a moment.
"Can Lao Wei be so kind?" Yin Mingwu was skeptical. He was too lazy to dwell on it. "Okay, send the NPC to Wei Wei. Let's quickly complete this mission."
With 30 minutes remaining, everyone left the haunted house garden.
"Take a picture for me! It's beautiful here." Gao Mengtang jumped in front of the torii, tilted his head and smiled.
Wei Wei: “…”
He Lun and Bai Jie were particularly supportive. They took many photos of Gao Mengtang and even pulled Wei Wei to take a photo in front of the torii.
Tier 1 dungeon, taking group photos like a tourist. A very beautiful mental state. The five Hei Ou looked at them speechlessly, but Wei Xiangchen was very yearning: "Old Yin, can I take a group photo?"
"Get out!" Yin Mingwu said angrily.
“Get out of here!” Wei Xiangchen happily floated over to take a photo.
He was already a dead man and couldn't die easily a second time, so he was as relaxed as Gao Mengtang.
After the group photo, Wei Wei knocked on the pillar of the torii gate. He was stunned for a few seconds, then took out a dagger and cut through the red paint on the outer layer of the torii gate.
"What's wrong?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Wei Wei approached the place where the red paint was scratched, smelled it carefully, touched it, and knocked it: "Red rosewood, a precious wood. The price of the wood for this row of torii is equivalent to a river view flat in the city center."
"You must have seen it wrong," Tu Cheng said, "This is an amusement park, not a palace. Why would we use high-grade wood?"
Wolanbei: "He is knowledgeable about wood, he can't be wrong."
Wei Wei scraped off the red paint on the torii gates at the back and took a closer look at each one. They were all made of rosewood.
It's really strange that synthetic wood should be used for the ornamental landscape in the amusement park. Using cheap solid wood is stupid. They actually built a row of red rosewood torii?
The driver was waiting outside. When he saw them coming out, he sneered, "Are you done?"
"We also captured another person," Wei Wei threw the rabbit-faced craftsman who had been made into a rice dumpling into the trunk, "The Thunder God wants to see him, send him to him."
"Got it." The driver said. After they completed the task, the driver's face became much more relaxed. "Have a good rest for a day. Lei Gong still needs your help."
The car sped away and merged into the night. The system prompt sounded: "Decomposition task 1 has been completed."
"The side quest [Who is playing tricks] has been completed."
"The rewards for the decomposition tasks and side quests of this instance will be distributed in real time. It is expected to be sent to the player's mailbox in 1 hour, please check it carefully."
In the back seat of the car, Gao Mengtang turned on his mobile phone and repeatedly checked the copied surveillance footage.
These surveillance videos seem to be nothing special, so why did the staff copy them to their phones? Why did they use precious wood to build the torii?
Who is randomly killing people in the Linyuan haunted house? What is the purpose?
