There were screams coming from inside. Li Su frowned, followed the sound, and stopped in front of a wooden door.
There were no warning signs, so he just opened the door.
What comes into view is a simulated classroom.
Several players wearing skirts surrounded a classmate and spat at him.
Hearing the door open, they all turned to look at the entrance, revealing devilish smiles as they walked towards Li Su with malice in their eyes.
Li Su not only didn't run away, but also closed the door.
His eyes narrowed slightly, his aura dangerous.
Several players came over and tried to pull Li Su's hair, as if he had triggered some NPC quest by coming in. The man retaliated by pulling their hair back. He was about to kill them all when he suddenly remembered those Aces of Spades.
Upon seeing the items, the players and NPCs seemed to receive some kind of instruction, immediately ceasing their attack and quickly finding their seats.
Li Su raised an eyebrow.
The old-fashioned blackboard now has a slot in the lower right corner, and chalk writing appears on the blackboard.
Please insert the Ace of Spades into the card slot.
Li Su studied it for a few seconds, then inserted the Ace of Spades into the card slot, asking, "Are you the murderer?" Including the NPC who was hit, there were a total of six people present, excluding Li.
After the slot swallowed the Ace of Spades, it spat out twelve cards: six [yes] and six [no].
A second line of text appeared in black and white.
[Please distribute the twelve cards to each student.]
Li Su gave each person a yes or no answer.
The blackboard begins to ask questions.
[Are you the murderer?]
As if being manipulated, the five people took out their cards and inserted them into another slot according to the prompts.
They returned to their seats, and the blackboard read again, "Please insert the Ace of Spades into the slot." Li Su simply stuffed them all in.
The progress is very fast.
Li Su had a peach wood cross, so he wasn't affected when he came in; otherwise, he would have had to go through the process himself to see if it was yes or no.
[Are you also defining gender?]
Five [is]
[I tried to save myself, but the prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain.]
One (victim's self-help) [is]
Are you one of millions of me?
One [is]
The wording has been slightly modified to make it easier for them to choose.
The card was swallowed, and after a while, several guard NPCs came out from the back door, took the bullied person away, and left the bully behind after changing into school uniforms. Their eyes were just like the previous bullied person's: timid and dull.
From God's perspective, Li Su frowned deeply.
When it's all over.
The playing cards were recycled, and four more Aces of Hearts were dispensed from the card slot that originally dispensed the cards, with the small print in the middle being identical.
Li Su put away the playing cards and was about to leave when he noticed the players entering.
I don't know if it's the hallucinogenic air here that amplifies certain negative traits in people, but this hallucination causes the entire space to fall into a strange cycle.
Some people don't have any playing cards.
Some people have them, but they are incentive cards.
Inserting it into the card slot is useless.
You can only obtain task cards by completing tasks. Even encouraging words will be automatically turned into questions. However, if you exchange playing cards with money, you can only swallow them once you've acquired them.
Li Su stood quietly in place, pondering this bizarre scene.
This group consisted of three men and four women. They seemed to have targeted a few new 'NPCs' and started pushing and humiliating them. However, it wasn't entirely due to their aversion to this type of group; the girls would try to stop them.
They were the ones who extended a helping hand.
The blackboard surface has changed again.
[Successfully stopping the bullying will earn you one Ace of Hearts.]
They had all done various tasks, big and small, and their hands were full of playing cards. Gradually, the players realized that the playing cards might be the key. The girl, who was still conscious, tried to stop them, but it wasn't that easy.
"Don't hit them!" several girls shouted anxiously, but they wouldn't listen. One of the girls tried to pull them back, but was pushed aside violently.
The group of men almost attacked them too. Just then, a progress bar suddenly appeared on the blackboard, looking like a phone battery indicator. There were five bars in total, and one bar was erased every three minutes.
If it cannot be stopped, the mission fails.
The girls felt a sense of urgency and became even more anxious. They wanted to go out and find someone to help, but they couldn't open the door. They tried to climb out of the window from the chair, but the window was completely sealed. They were so anxious that they kept pacing around in circles.
Li Su, a grown man, was standing there when she noticed that three squares were missing. The girl was anxious and didn't have time to appreciate his good looks. She said, "Handsome, could you please pull them apart?"
Li Su crossed his arms and smirked, "You can pull them apart, but the cards are mine."
girl:"……"
Li Su: "Do you want to stop the bullying, or do you want the playing cards?"
The girl's eyes flickered, and she bit her lip, seemingly caught in a dilemma. Finally, she cautiously asked, "Is it okay if I want both?"
Li Su didn't say anything. He saw that he had dropped another level, and he would still not be able to get the cards if he failed the mission. At least now there was a male, so he should stop the bullying.
The girl chose the former.
As Li Su went over, they were all knocked unconscious.
Several former bullies huddled in a corner, trembling and covering their heads, repeatedly shouting things like "Don't hit me, I didn't do it."
Li Su stared at them, a little curious, and asked, "What does it feel like for a bully to be bullied?"
As the group approached Li Su, they were affected by the peach wood cross on his body and momentarily regained their senses. They realized that when they had been cursing others, their words were vicious, but now that it had happened to them, they finally felt the pain. However, some people were still unconvinced and believed that this ghostly world was controlling him.
This instance is perverted; it forcibly alters people's thoughts.
Li Su laughed, then moved away from the group, his gaze turning timid again. The girl standing to the side was stunned; just now, no, they looked like they had been knocked unconscious, shouting wildly.
And then there's that handsome guy's line: What does it feel like for a bully to be bullied?
The girl was nervous and scared.
Could this be a loop?
Whoever comes in will eventually become a student and be bullied by the players?
Knocking him out doesn't count as successfully stopping him; it just prevented the mission from failing and caused him to spit out a playing card—not the Ace of Hearts, but an encouragement card.
Li Su didn't want it.
He opened the door and left.
The road outside was different from the one that led to it; it was like entering a maze. Li Su wandered around until 6 p.m. before finally finding the exit.
The bell rang again.
6:05.
The sound of machinery assembling filled the air.
[All players, please assemble in the lobby at 6:20 sharp.]
[All players, please assemble in the lobby at 6:20 sharp.]
Continuous broadcast.
Li Su was the first to go over and find a stool to sit on.
As time went by, other players gradually arrived in the lobby.
Total number of people: 122.
So far, four bells have been rung, twelve players have been eliminated, and there have been instances of players killing each other. The final number of players in the lobby is 91.
31 were lost on the first day.
The casualty rate was already quite high, which made other players shudder. Many players still hadn't figured out the pattern and searched many places, but there were no corpses at all.
Some people who completed the task ended up with a few more playing cards.
I just don't know what they're for.
The castle hall was filled with the noisy chatter of players.
Good evening, everyone.
[Due to a bug affecting a player, the entire game will be paused for half an hour.]
The opponent is collecting playing cards too quickly; we must be wary.
"A bug? Good heavens, someone's using a backdoor here?"
"What bug? I want to be a sucker for help."
"Has a big shot emerged?"
The players' chatter actually eased the tension considerably.
We hope this player will not break the game rules.
The judge was worried that the other party would ruin the game. He knew who it was, but couldn't reveal it. If Li Su led all the mission participants to successfully complete the mission, the success rate would be too high, and the instance would be downgraded.
Bugs are allowed, but he can only use it on himself.
Individuals can complete the game.
After issuing the warning, they changed the subject.
[How was the player experience on the first day of the game?]
The others started talking all at once.
“We’ve searched many places. There’s a large rose garden south of the manor. Didn’t someone say that the more vibrant the flowers, the more likely there are corpses underneath? Are we supposed to dig up the entire rose garden?”
"And a playing card? We did a quest while searching for a body and got a playing card as a reward. What's it for?"
"The quest outside, the one in the butterfly garden, we've been following the rules exactly, so why are we still failing? Is it because of the bugged players you mentioned? Or is there a bug in the quest itself?"
This was said by one of the people in Li Yansheng's team.
They went there to do their task in the afternoon.
According to the rules, the weeds were removed, fertilizer was applied, and the butterflies were caught in nets and moved aside, but the result was not satisfactory.
If the entire game hadn't been temporarily shut down...
They are still in the Butterfly Ghost Garden.
Li Yansheng roughly knew where the problem lay, but he didn't want to replicate Li Su's process, as it would be too embarrassing, since he had initially advised Li Su not to do it that way, as it would waste a lot of time.
Who knew they would do it that way?
Hearing the arguing below, the judge smiled.
This dungeon has many hidden quests, so players should proceed with caution.
[Add a few rules]
Rule 4: If you hear thunder, immediately find shelter.
[Rule 5: Note that the number of castle roses must be complete, ninety-nine stems, no more and no less]
[Rule Six: When entering the Rose Forbidden Zone (Haunted Castle), groups of four are allowed to stay together. The number of people leaving must be the same; no one more or less is allowed.]
"Playing cards, what are playing cards for?" someone among the players asked.
The judge remained silent for a moment.
A helpful tip was given: [Key to the dungeon]
After the event, everyone realized the importance of the playing cards and started doing tasks to collect them.
Li Yansheng stood there for a while before coming to Li Su's side.
The man's tall shadow blocked the light from his eyes. Li Su frowned in displeasure and said in a cold voice, "Get out of the way."
Li Yansheng: "Shall we cooperate?"
Li Su stared at the man with a half-smile. He had given him a chance before, letting them shovel soil, but he found it troublesome and withdrew from the Ghost Garden. Was it possible to cooperate again?
Li Yansheng seemed to understand Li Su's thoughts and continued, "We can collect them together and split them in half. I'll take charge of the front lines, how about that?"
All things considered, it's not a loss. After all, dungeons are fraught with danger, and you only have one life. If you're not careful, you'll really be nothing but a skeleton.
Why not have someone take the lead?
However, it seems that Li Su doesn't need any help.
As her gaze swept over the three people behind her, Chi Lulu's admiration for Li Su deepened, though she felt a little awkward and uncomfortable making eye contact. She quickly turned her head away, her ears turning bright red, and even her feet unconsciously came together.
Li Su wanted to see the little dolls.
She braced herself on the edge of the handrail with both hands, and stood up with a little effort. After standing up, her figure immediately became taller, and her features were beautiful and exquisite. She was just too tall, otherwise people would believe that she was a girl. Her face was too beautiful.
"Why should I share it if I can enjoy it all by myself?"
After saying this, he walked past them and headed towards the forbidden area.
It wasn't time yet, and I hadn't put on the hair clip.
The little doll is now just a toy doll.
Li Su took out the small hair clip, opened the display window, put it on the little guy, and then removed his hand, causing the display window to close automatically.
He's not worried about not being able to open the glass later. As long as the little doll can hand him the hair clip through the small window, he can still do the task with the baby after 24 hours.
Cute little thing.
After a few hours of rest, the little doll's yellowish face looked much better, its rosy cheeks returning. However, its electrified fur was still sticky, making it look like a little sea urchin. With a hair clip on, it seemed to wake up from its slumber.
She stretched and rubbed her eyes with her little hands. It took her a while to open them. She saw Li Su through the glass and her brain short-circuited for a moment before she remembered, "Oh, Xiao Li."
I lifted the pink blanket, got out of bed barefoot, and yawned as I walked.
Her little face was soft and fluffy, and her crystal-clear eyes sparkled like grapes. Li Su placed his hand on the glass of the shop window.
The little puppet also placed its hand on the glass, bent its left knee, wrapped its left foot around its right leg with its toes touching the ground, and put its right arm behind its back. Li Su cooperated by bending his knee and looking up at the little puppet.
The little doll chuckled, stood still, opened the glass window, spoke to Li Su, glanced at the small alarm clock on the bedside table to make sure it wasn't time yet, and then turned its head back.
"It's not time yet, aren't you going to do the task?"
I touched my head, and sure enough, there was a hair clip.
Li Su: "It's getting late. I came to keep you company. How are you feeling? Any better?"
The little doll scratched the back of its ear and called out in a soft, sweet voice, "Xiao Li."
Li Su: "Hmm?"
The little doll hesitated for a while, then sighed and shook its head: "It's nothing."
His duty as a puppet was to get information out of him, but he felt that Li Suren was quite nice. Once he revealed the main mission, he would be eliminated. It was a pity that the hair clip on his head was something he had paid for.
Xiao Li is a good person.
He can't be a bad guy.
"Are you trying to ask me about the dungeon quest?" Li Su smiled.
The little doll's eyes widened, it touched its face, and quickly went to look in the mirror on the dressing table. There were no words on its face or on its head. How did it know?
Why did the fur get fried like this?
The little doll pouted and pressed and pressed with its little hands.
"Come here, I'm only talking to you."
The little doll turned its head, and Li Su's smile was particularly beautiful and sincere, but it was too big, like a big tiger, pressed against the glass, scaring me.
She pursed her pink lips and said, "Don't say it."
Li Su: "Baby, you look like a little cake."
The little doll wiggled its little feet: "Does it smell sweet and delicious?"
The little guy has a very good sense of self-worth; he knows he's pretty, even though he's just a doll, hehe.
Li Su was amused.
The little doll came to the window, put its head against it, and said, "Take my hair clip, open the glass, and I'm going out."
Li Su: "You need to rest inside for a whole day; only five hours have passed."
Little doll: "It's okay, I can keep it in the house just the same."
Seeing that the little doll really wanted to get out, Li Su reached his finger in, but the window was too small, and even sticking it in wasn't easy. He struggled to get the hair clip out and opened the display window.
Then put the hair clip on the little doll.
