monster battlefield

Chapter 205 Detection Skill Failure

Zhou Shu observed the blonde heroine for a long time, but didn't find that the fat director was looking for her. Instead, she went to find a colleague for a meal after get off work, and returned to the small broken apartment she rented after the meal.

When I went back, the landlord was still chasing me for rent, but she only said that it would be paid next week, and she would be paid next week.

In fact she has not been paid for two weeks.

If it weren't for the fact that she still has a job and the possibility of paying rent, the landlord would have kicked her out a long time ago.

After she fell asleep, Zhou Shu went to the port again. He searched the entire port but couldn't find the scruffy little ship named "Adventure".

Instead, I saw the huge luxury cruise ship that appeared in the movie and was mistaken by the heroine for the filming ship.

In this way, it was all right, at least he knew where the little broken boat would stop.

The heroine has been found, and the berth of the Adventurer has also been found. Although the fat director doesn't know where it is yet, as long as he focuses on these two points, the first question will be easy.

But there is another possibility, that is, the protagonist group gave up the original heroine and set off with another heroine.

After all, the entire virtual battlefield has been magically modified, and it seems that some other elements have been added to it. It may not be completely non-existent to change the heroine.

If this is the case, then Zhou Shu will be in trouble.

According to the process of the movie, the fat director just wants investors to watch the movie and invest in it, so he will appear in the screening room of a certain movie company. .

So Zhou Shu still regards following the heroine and finding the Adventurer as the main goals. If the fat director is concerned, then it can only depend on fate.

The same is true for the playwright, and he has quite little information, so Zhou Shu can only target the heroine and the Adventurer.

Although the virtual battlefield can change the plot magically, but a heroine and an important means of transportation can't be unreliable, right?

Standing at the top of the Empire State Building that was just completed two years ago, which is where King Kong will fly in the future, Zhou Shu made a plan of action for tomorrow.

He looked at the night scene below with some sadness, when an untimely voice sounded.

"Grumble~"

Zhou Shu looked at his stomach, he was... hungry.

It's only been half a day, and he's actually hungry.

Ever since his attribute has been getting higher and higher, especially after it has clearly exceeded 9, he hasn't had a serious meal in the spirit cage world.

In other words, the little energy provided by eating is not enough to make up for his consumption, and eating is usually a hobby.

Moreover, after getting in touch with Bai Yuekui and obtaining the technique of absorbing "spiritual power", he can use his spiritual power to satisfy his energy consumption, and eating is even more optional.

Later, he often left the lighthouse to search for supplies alone. He would carry all kinds of equipment, but he just didn't bring food because he didn't need it.

But now he has started to take the assessment, and his attributes have been reduced to 2.99 for all members, turning him into a "mortal body" again, making him need to eat, which is probably one of the increased 100% difficulty.

Using playing games as a metaphor, it is probably changing from the invincible "construction mode" to the highly immersive "survival mode". Eating, drinking, and getting sick are all real experiences.

Even harsher than real!
At this moment, the nighttime beauty brought by the high place is nothing, and how to fill his stomach is what he needs to consider.

It's just that he doesn't have any money, and he used fare evasion methods that others can't use when he went to the theater this afternoon, so how to solve the problem of eating?

Thanks to his choice of places to live, he can even stay on the roof of the Empire State Building for one night, but the problem of eating is unbearable.

He didn't want to pick something out of the trash can and eat it.

Just as he was trying to figure out a way, and just when he had some evil thoughts, he was warned by the system.

[Warning: The assessors are not hostile to the forces in this area, and cannot obtain finances through theft and robbery! 】

Good guy, Zhou Shu was taken aback!
There is still morality in the virtual battlefield, and it is impossible to obtain finances through illegal means, but look at this... It seems that the road is not blocked, as long as he is in a hostile state, he can obtain finances through "illegal" means.

But he thought about it again, it turns out that there is still a communication system in this simulated battlefield, he thought the system was completely unusable!
Knowing this, he tried to communicate with this system. He wanted to see how far he could communicate?
Also, is this thing Kokari, or is it the main system of the super soldier headquarters?
"Ah, hello, hello, let me ask, if I take the initiative to turn against the forces here, will it be considered hostile?"

After asking this question, the text prompt did not appear. Just when Zhou Shu thought that communication was only a single item, and this thing only played a supervisory role, the text prompt appeared again.

[No, the assessors can only passively accept the hostile state. 】

tsk~
It actually blocked the road.

Zhou Shu didn't give up, and asked again: "Excuse me...are you the system of the headquarters?"

No response.

"Do you know where the other assessors are? Have they landed on the island?"

No response.

"Excuse me, am I the only one in New York City?"

"Are these restrictions just for me?"

"Is there a ranking? There is not even a real-time ranking. What if you guys cheat?"

"Hey, does this make no sense? Or do you allow people to cheat?"

"Is someone in charge and no one is in charge? Well, no one is in charge..."

Zhou Shu finally started to curse in a low voice.

Too bad it still doesn't work.

You can't steal, you can't rob, Zhou Shu can only make money honestly, otherwise he might starve to death before going to Skull Island to fight monsters.

But how to make money honestly, you have to think carefully about it.

And in the middle of the night, where does he go to make money, he can't rely on his pretty face to work the night shift, right?
Now is the time of the Great Depression, more and more people are unemployed, and fewer and fewer people can find jobs again. The reason is that many factories and companies have closed down and there are no jobs.

Of course, you don’t have to work for others to make money, you can also start your own company.

This era is nearly a hundred years behind the real world, and he has countless ideas for making a fortune.

However, he has no seed capital and is unlikely to start a company.

Even if you don't start a company, but go to those capitalists with technical drawings and ask them to spend money to buy their own technical drawings, it will not be possible to get the money in a day or two, which is really troublesome.

He's just here to do a mission, he may leave at any time, he may even board the ship tomorrow, there is no time for that.

In addition, if you don't want to work for others, you can only be a freelance artist yourself, or simply a wandering artist.

In essence, they are similar to beggars, begging for food, but these years are in economic crisis, ordinary people have a hard time, let alone beggars who directly ask for money, so you are a bit talented.

Bring some talent, some shocking talent, maybe you can get some money.

Money given on the spot.

He doesn't want much, just enough to eat.

If it weren't for the fact that animals in big cities were not easy to find, he would have gone hunting directly, so it didn't need to be so complicated.

When he arrived at Skull Island, that was his home field. The problems of eating and fighting monsters could be combined into one.

Although eating chicken is about the same as eating dinosaur meat, he still wants to try real dinosaur meat.

After thinking about it, he sat down cross-legged on King Kong's future battlefield, touching the metal underneath, and he gradually came up with a solution.

Cut out a piece of metal from a place that does not affect safety, and use force field control to pull it into an iron wire, bending it into an S for a while, B for a while, or A.

Don't get me wrong, he's just practicing bending into USA with wire, not cursing.

Then he rolled up the wire and flattened it, and then carved some simple patterns, and a "coin" appeared.

The coin rolled a few times between the fingers, and with a flick of the thumb, the coin immediately flew up. When it fell again, Zhou Shu grabbed it with his hand and put it to his mouth and blew, and then spread his hand. With five small steel balls.

This is called "Magneto King".

Now that you have such abilities, if you want to make money, you should be a... magician.

After deciding on this, Zhou Shu stood up, looked in the direction, and jumped off the roof of the Empire State Building.

There was no tendency to fall, but the figure began to blur, and then flew away directly.

So far, Zhou Shu has not found other candidates, and he has also done some tests and found that superpowers are actually restricted.

Now his flying speed can no longer break through the supersonic speed, the top speed can only fly 500, but it is much faster than the aircraft of this era.

Moreover, the various methods are obviously limited, such as the characteristics of telekinesis, and it has returned to the state of several tons.

But it's okay, the strong vitality field after integration is very useful, and it's enough for this virtual battlefield.

Just like now, although optical invisibility cannot be achieved, but with optical blur and the protection of night, even if someone looks up, he cannot see him.

He flew to the port, but still didn't find the Adventurer, so he flew back to the theater where the heroine worked, and found a soft place to sleep.

This kind of practice does not seem to be "illegal" in the definition of the system, so Zhou Shu defined it as "taking advantage".

Early the next morning, Zhou Shu got up with a rumbling stomach, and protested seriously to him that he had to eat something today.

That is to say, there is tap water in the theater, and Zhou Shu bought some tap water to drink.

It doesn't matter whether the raw water of this era can be drunk directly, anyway, according to his gastrointestinal function, he is not afraid of taking something with him.

After he was full, Zhou Shu left the theater again. He found that the heroine went to work as usual today, so he knew that the theater would not be closed today, so he did not have to worry about her being taken away by the fat director.

So after he left the theater, he picked up a piece of iron here and a piece of iron there, flattened it in his hand, and made two big iron balls soon.

The size is as big as the Liangyi ball in the hand.

However, he divided the two big balls into more than a dozen small balls, some of which were hidden in his pockets, and some were turned into biscuits and stuck on his arms for emergencies.

Looking at the policemen who were busy chasing people just after dawn, rushing to work, not daring to be late for half a minute, but there were vehicles jammed together, and people queuing up to receive relief, Zhou Shu began to worry about what happened to him today. Harvest worries.

Now is not the future. In the Freedom Beacon 90 years later, you have to drive even to receive relief. The queue of vehicles is comparable to the congested road next to it.

At this time, even if his performance is exciting enough, will anyone give him money?
Thinking of this, he envied the protagonists of the novels he read, why is it also "time travel", they can directly rob the bank, and he can only rely on himself?
No reason!

As he walked, Zhou Shu saw luxury restaurants and luxury theaters. This early in the morning, there were already well-dressed people coming in and out, which showed how rich and free they were.

Maybe he can put on a show at the gates of these two places.

However, he took a closer look and found that there were already people here, and they looked quite high-end. There were not only "peers" who were playing close-up magic tricks, some were performing acrobatics, some were performing funny mimes with clown patterns, and some even played the violin. of.

So, these are also the artists whose theaters closed down and had to take to the streets?
Forget about playing the violin, he doesn't have a violin, and even though he's good at it, he doesn't know how to play it.

Funny mime is also not good, he has no sense of humor, and he has no acting skills.

You can try acrobatics. His agility is very suitable for this. The only problem is that he doesn't have beautiful props, and he can't make that kind of fancy effect.

He found that he could not compete with these, so he focused on his "peers".

And the magician who played close-up magic saw Zhou Shu standing in front of him. Although he was wearing ordinary clothes, they were brand new, and he seemed to have some money on him.

Although he was a yellow race, he frowned a little, but thinking that these people especially like to carry money with them, he endured it, and even interacted with Zhou Shu.

He took out a deck of cards, and with a smile on his face, he spread the cards out to show the five people in front of him, so that they could see that he hadn't tampered with the cards.

Then he combined the cards, opened them again, pulled the cards apart with both hands like playing an accordion, and then quickly put them together again.

After a few quick visits, I got enough attention.

Seeing the expressions of interest on the faces of the five spectators, he spread out the cards behind his back again for the five spectators to see, and finally stopped in front of Zhou Shu, smiled and said, "Sir, can I trouble you to choose a card?" A card, I won't glance at it, but I can figure out which one you picked."

The magician laughed, and Zhou Shu also laughed. He knew that the magician regarded himself as a rich man and wanted to take money out of his own pocket.

It's a pity, his pocket is definitely cleaner than the magician's pocket, and he will have to grab food on the magician's territory later, which feels quite embarrassing.

So he planned to cooperate with this performance.

If the performance is wonderful, the other four will give money, so that this magician can have a meal, so that he won't be unable to make money after making troubles.

In the end, he hadn't moved yet, but a person came behind him and said, "Let me cooperate with you. I'm very curious about this kind of trick."

Hearing this voice, Zhou Shu was taken aback because he didn't feel anyone approaching.
