Open doll shop in escape games

As the two walked around, many resting dolls looked at them with wide eyes, and their flexible eyeballs followed their figures around.

Yanlou said: "I thought the dungeon content was fixed?"

Hughes replied: "That's not the case. You have the ability to build copies for the dolls, and you also have the power to change the copies under the jurisdiction of the doll shop. As long as it conforms to the theme and logic of the game, any reasonable changes are okay, but the changed copies Will re-rate."

"Tuk Tuk"

A slight knocking sound interrupted their footsteps, Yan Lou looked towards the source of the sound, and saw several palm-high wooden dolls lying on the glass cabinet, waving at him in unison.

Hughes laughed, "This is the early work of the second store manager. They are naughty and clingy, and like to play tricks. It seems that they like you very much. Maybe you will receive a little surprise from them in the future."

Yan Lou squatted down, tapped the glass with his fingertips, and the wooden dolls followed his fingertips to run around.

"Very lively little guy." Yanlou smiled and shook his head, waved goodbye to them and stood up.

Hughes led him to another glass cabinet. Inside was a bear puppet one person tall, but the bear was stained with blood, one ear and half of the body were missing, and the white cotton was exposed.

"This is a broken doll, you can repair it after you have mastered the ability to make and repair dolls." Hughes touched the curved glass surface distressedly, "The doll is hostile to the player in the dungeon, and bumps and bumps are inevitable Hit, the doll will be slightly damaged after a long time. If you encounter a powerful player, it will be damaged as much as it is, and you have to temporarily close the copy."

Looking at the damaged puppet, Yanlou fell silent.

He carefully recalled his life experience, and it seems that he does not have the skills to sew, let alone make all kinds of dolls.

"I want to ask, will the corresponding skills be automatically activated after becoming the store manager? For example, repairing dolls." Yan Lou interrupted.

Hughes looked at him blankly, "Does the store manager have any special skills? The game doesn't seem to give relevant benefits."

Yan Lou asked awkwardly: "Then how should I mend it? Take a needle and thread and sew it little by little?"

Hughes nodded with a natural look on his face, "Yes, the store managers of all generations have used needles, threads and various materials to repair dolls."

Seeing Yanlou's blank expression, Hughes finally understood, he smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, you have a lot of time to study, and there is no rush to fix it."

Yanlou was not comforted and said: "What if I have a handicap and can't mend it?"

"No!" Hughes said with determination, and suddenly found three books that looked like bricks from his pocket, "This is the store manager's manual written by the first store manager, and the second store manager has supplemented it. .”

"The store manager's handbook consists of three volumes. The first volume is about the introduction of the escape game, the benefits and responsibilities of the store manager, and some lessons learned by the previous store manager; the second volume is about the records of dolls and dungeons, which contains the general description of all dungeons. The content, as well as the characteristics of the dolls, especially the dungeons built by the store manager are more detailed; the second volume is about the production and repair of dolls, which introduces the production techniques of various dolls, as well as the sources and applications of various materials. "

Yan Lou took the three heavy tomes, looked at the cute smile on Hughes' face, and suddenly had doubts about his future.

Didn't he come to be the manager of the store?How did it become handmade?

Hughes didn't understand his bewilderment, and said trustingly: "With these, even if you don't have any experience, you can quickly become an excellent store manager!"

Yan Lou didn't think so, but he still kept smiling, "Let's continue talking about these dolls."

"Okay!" Hughes immediately shifted his attention. "Of the seventeen dungeons that have abnormalities, five are due to damage to the dolls, and the remaining twelve are due to abnormalities in the dolls."

"The twelve dungeons include two D-level dungeons, three C-level dungeons, four B-level dungeons, and three A-level dungeons."

"I suggest that you start to rule out abnormalities from the D-level dungeon, because the lower-level dungeon dolls are weaker and less cunning and dangerous than the high-level dolls. Most importantly, the low-level dungeon dolls have less freedom. If you open the dungeon, Then they need to act according to the copy, which is convenient for you to capture."

Yan Lou took a look around and had a general understanding of the D and C level dungeons and dolls. Hughes then led him to the right side hall.

The dolls here are no longer separated by glass display cabinets, but each copy has a separate small room, with a copy nameplate hanging on the door.

"The doll shop now has four A-level dungeons, but only three A-level dolls." Hughes led him to the depths of the side hall, where three of the four doors were red.

"Two of the three abnormal copies are high-risk elements, one of which is the dangerous A-level doll Beatrice, and the other is a flower fairy series composed of B-level dolls."

Hughes opened one of the doors, but did not go in. Instead, he stood at the door and introduced to Yanlou, "This is Beatrice and the doll under her control."

Yan Lou looked into the house, and saw several life-sized dolls sitting on chairs, covered with a layer of tulle.Although the faces cannot be seen clearly, judging from the exposed hands, these dolls are almost identical to real people.

"Look there." Hughes pointed to the empty chair at the front, on which was pinned a nameplate of pure gold with red letters, "That's where Beatrice is."

"She's gone?" Yan Lou's eyes narrowed slightly, "Run away?"

Hughes sighed, "When the dungeon was in progress, the dolls left in the doll shop were just projections. More than half a year ago, I found that there was an abnormality in this dungeon, and the doll sitting at the top was not Beatrice. Forced to shut down the dungeon After that, it was empty, and Beatrice never appeared again, the only thing that is certain is that she is still trapped within the scope of the copy, but I have no way of knowing what happened to the copy.”

He closed the door and walked to the next room, "Although the Flower Fairy series are only B-level dolls, they are the late works of the first store manager, and they have a very high IQ. This dungeon was closed three years ago. The guy killed all the players and npcs in one game, and used a lot of blood for the second spirit."

Yanlou heard an unfamiliar term, "Dianling?"

"The difference between the dolls in the doll shop and ordinary dolls is that we have spirits. Dolls with spirits can move, laugh, think, have wisdom and emotions." Hughes said, "Part of this spirit is inspired by the doll master. , part of it is the soul body attached to the doll, and a very small part is spawned by blood and death."

"The Flower Fairy series was enlightened by the first store manager. They possessed wisdom and learning ability, and gradually changed their temperament in the dungeon. In the end, they used death and blood to enlighten themselves for the second time."

There are twelve in the Flower Fairy series, each of which is a beautiful arm-high doll in brightly colored skirts, ornate accessories, with vivid smiles on their faces, and looks as if they are dancing among flowers.

Judging from their appearance alone, it is hard for Yanlou to imagine that these beautiful little girls can be so vicious, but there is a saying that people should not be judged by their appearance, Yanlou never judges a person by their appearance.

"The other abnormal copy is quite special. He was an A-level doll captured by the second store manager in the Xiuxian world. He was in an abnormal state when he brought it back. The store manager left before he had time to solve his problem. The subsequent store manager The boss does not have this ability, and his copy has never been opened."

Hughes opened the door and walked in. There was only an ice coffin in the room, and inside the ice coffin was a sleeping man, with white clothes and black hair, as if he was a fairy.

Yan Lou looked carefully for a while, and confirmed that it was a person.

"Is he also a doll?" Yanlou questioned.

"It is." Hughes shook his ears and explained, "There is not much information about him. I only know that he came from the world of cultivating immortals. He was originally a human being. After his death, his corpse was made into a puppet. This kind of corpse puppet is also Count among the dolls."

Yan Lou looked at the person in the ice coffin in surprise, his face was rosy, he seemed to be just asleep, but he didn't expect it to be a corpse.

After closing this door, Hughes continued to walk to the next door.

"The store manager doesn't need to do it himself to enter the dungeon to capture the doll. You can bring the doll into the dungeon, and the doll will obey your orders." Hughes pushed open the door, "It's just that the doll brought into the dungeon needs to be loyal to you and will not betray you. , preferably a doll you made yourself."

Inside the room are ten male dolls of the same height as a real person. They are dressed in black, with swords and weapons pinned to their waists, and ghost masks on their faces. There is almost no difference between them in appearance.

"This is the kill series made by the first store manager. They are absolutely loyal to the store manager, and they are the first choice for previous store managers to bring in copies." Hughes came to the first doll, "This is kill-0, you You can also call him Kai, he is the third A-level doll in the store."

The ten dolls opened their eyes at the same time, and they stared at Yanlou with cold but not malicious eyes.

"Although kill-1 to 9 are B-grade dolls, they are equally outstanding." Hughes looked a little proud, probably because he and the kill series came from the same hand.

Yan Lou looked at the ten dolls that looked as sharp as knives, and felt in his heart that kill was a specially made humanoid weapon, probably a tool and guard specially left by the first store manager for future generations.

Hughes took him through the dolls and dungeons in the store, highlighting the abnormal and damaged ones.

Leaving aside the abnormal ones, just the damage that needs to be repaired would make Yan Lou a headache.The number of dolls does not seem to be many, but it includes a bear puppet as tall as a person, a pair of exquisite ceramic dolls, a cute doll with missing arms and legs, a [-]cm clay doll, and a real person made of resin materials One scale figure.

A doll is not only important for its main body, but also for its accessories. The more delicate a doll is, the more and more complicated its accessories are.

Think about the last human-scale doll. She is wearing a gorgeous embroidered dress, has exquisite makeup on her face, wears various jewelry on her head and body, and has nails and hair that are no different from real people. These are Yanlou What needs to be fixed.

Yanlou, who just came here, is confident. He has management talents and years of experience in running a company, which gave him the confidence to be the store manager.

But within a day, his confidence was shaky. No one told him that being a store manager requires so many manual skills, such as sculpture, sewing, embroidery, paper art, machinery...

Yan Lou felt that his road ahead was a bit difficult and dangerous.

But soon he regained his confidence. It’s not that he has never encountered difficulties. He has overcome them so many times in the past.

After leaving the side hall, Yan Lou took out the note from his pocket.

"I would like to ask what it says... food and housing are included." Pointing to one of the lines, he asked expectantly, "Is it true?"

Hughes was stunned for a moment, "Of course it is true. There is a building in the apse dedicated to the store manager. The game will also issue [-] credits per month as salary, and you can get bonuses for repairing dungeons and building dungeons."

Yanlou raised the paper and said with a smile: "No, my focus is not on these, but...eating!"

Hughes froze for two seconds. If he remembered correctly, there was a ghost in front of him. Do ghosts also eat?

"Of course there are!" Hughes quickly recovered, "I'm sorry, I was negligent! I'll have someone prepare it for you right away."
