Hurry up and make money, or you will be banned!

Among the low-level (C~F) dungeons of "Nineteenth Floor", horror-like ones are uncommon.

So, suddenly facing such a visually impactful scene, the two newcomers in the team were terrified.A few other rookies with little experience also huddled together in twos and threes, and all the precautions that the jacket brother had instructed just now flew to the sky.

Jackets do not hide their secrets. Before entering the mall, they summed up the "nineteen layers" routine for new players.

First of all, the customs clearance method of the dungeon must be traceable.

Including the main line, branch line, and even hidden tasks given by the task panel.For example, the escape type dungeon will clearly tell you that the way to clear the customs is to survive within a few days; the plot type dungeon will clearly tell you to find the truth, and so on.

Secondly, the triggering method of death is also traceable.

The death of a player often triggers the "death rule" of the dungeon. For example, out of ten rainy dungeons, nine of them die because of not holding an umbrella; nine out of ten nighttime dungeons are wandering outside at night.

As for NPCs, some people also call them "BOSS", and they also have the ability to kill players. Generally, they are regular and will not be illogical.And the lower the copy level, the stronger the restriction of the NPC's killing rules.For example, it is impossible for a baby NPC to beat the player to death with his fist, and it is absolutely impossible for an ancient NPC to pull out an AK47 to shoot the player.

Therefore, the jacket told him at the door that no matter how abnormal the scene was, he should not act abnormally - he once went to a dungeon, and the law of NPC killing people turned out to be "players sit on the ground".

The middle-aged man in the jacket sighed indiscriminately when he saw the low quality of this newcomer and other rookies.

Another old player is a dashing tall woman who introduced herself as Sister Ying.She glanced at the newcomer behind her, and communicated with the jacket: "Do you know anyone?"

"No."

The two looked at each other tacitly, and then the jacket said, "Xiao Li, go talk to the NPC."

Xiao Li, who was pointed out, was one of the newcomers, and he was shocked.

"No, bro, you've exposed your true nature within a minute of our entry into the dungeon? I only know that the most clichéd opening plot in escape games is that old players let new players use their lives to find the way, but I didn't know it came so fast—— ah!"

Before Xiao Li's rant was over, he was kicked from behind and flew into the door with a sliding shovel that could kill three tigers.

The jacket lowered his eyes: "You are so conscious, why didn't you expect that our old players have strengthened their bodies?"

Xiao Li had already been on guard, and after landing, he rolled up from the ground like a carp. Unfortunately, he landed in a bad position, just in front of the cash register.

They got up together and were about to tear each other up, but met Xiao Li who had two pairs of ghost eyes: "..."

Prepared a lot of scary lines but did not expect the player to appear in such a shocking way, the two employees who forgot the lines: "..."

Xiao Li strode back in fright. Behind him was the dividing line for the checkout line. He bumped into it unexpectedly, and threw himself forward in pain——

Another slap on the cashier counter, knocking out Uncle Zhang's eyeballs that were placed in the center of the cashier counter and "guaranteed to be seen at the first sight".

Uncle Zhang: "..."

551 screamed: "Uncle Zhang——your eyeball—died so miserable—"

"Uh, what seems to be flying?" Xiao Li raised his hand and saw the blood stain on half of his palm, and screamed in fright, "My god, what the hell is that!"

Uncle Zhang took two deep breaths angrily, and Xuelu hurriedly stepped on him before he cursed, signaling him to calm down.

The faces of the others behind the jacket were uncertain.

Judging from all aspects of equipment, strength and leading the overall situation, Jacket is obviously an experienced veteran player, but everyone can clearly see his attitude towards Xiao Li just now.Although Xiao Li did not die, and the jacket is for the good of everyone, but the next "expedition with life" will happen to other people.

As if he didn't care about the opinions of other players, the jacket waved his hand: "Pay attention to what I just reminded, everyone be careful."

Except for another newcomer, eleven people obediently followed the jackets into the hypermarket like dogs, while Xiao Li was forgotten where he was.He rubbed his sore leg, and resentfully went to find another newcomer.

The other newcomer was a girl with red eyes.Since she was warned that some NPCs' killing conditions were to "cry", she didn't dare to cry.

"Let's go in too," Xiao Li said wearily, "Think about the mission requirements...it may be dangerous if you don't enter the mall for a long time."

"I don't want to go!" the girl cried, "Why did this damn escape game come to us?"

Ah... Here it comes... A must-have for newcomers to escape games "Is this a variety show?" "Why did you find us?" "The cameraman get out!"

Over there, the jacket has left the two oil bottles behind and chatted with the NPC.

"Hello, we want to buy something. What is the most expensive thing here?"

Uncle Zhang spoke hoarsely, his voice was like a ghost just crawling out of an abyss: "Product information... Please go to... the shopping guide."

"Uh, where is the shopping guide?"

Uncle Zhang stopped talking.

Xuelu was very nervous. Just now, when the scary lines they planned were interrupted by Xiao Li who didn't play cards according to common sense, his mind immediately went blank.

In the previous practice dungeons, he was always the little ghost who was responsible for hiding and jumping out to scare people, and he didn't have the experience of being an NPC on his own.

Hearing the player's question, Xuelu couldn't help answering, but was held down by Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Zhang lost his eyeballs, his blood-stained eye sockets twitched, and he laughed: "Have you seen my... eyeballs?"

No matter what questions people ask, Uncle Zhang will only repeat this sentence.

When everyone came together to discuss "is it a side mission to find eyeballs for NPCs", Xuelu glanced at Uncle Zhang adoringly.

Eyes alone are no longer enough to express admiration, I really hope I can boast hundreds of words!Inducing the player to sway the target and at the same time defraud others, absolutely!

551 had a pair of rabbit ears hanging down: "Hey, master, Uncle Zhang is so reliable, you must hold his thigh tightly."

Saying that, 551 went to strike up a conversation with Uncle Zhang's system in a very useless manner.Uncle Zhang's system is a gold group that looks like a wallet, but upon closer inspection it is indeed a wallet. He is proudly raising his eyebrows noble and cold.

Uncle Zhang raised his eyebrows proudly.

The shopping guide column of the shopping mall is on the wall just before the entrance of each floor. Such an obvious facility naturally has no useful information.Looking into the shopping mall, in the endless hypermarket, the end is dark and weird, and there are no NPCs other than the two salesmen at the door.

At the door, Xiao Li saw that the other players had dispersed to find clues, and he was very anxious: "If you don't complete the task, you will really die!"

He tried to make the girl laugh: "Actually, this game isn't that scary. Look, I messed up the cash register, thinking I was going to die, and confronted two NPCs, but nothing happened! Hehe, just treat it as if you were going It's a haunted house, and that NPC looks really pretty."

The girl was a little moved, and just about to say something, suddenly, the words were swallowed in her mouth.

Her eyes were wide open, and her whole body began to tremble, as if she had seen the most terrifying scene in the world.

Xiao Li looked back puzzled: "What...?"

Behind him, the salesperson who had just been praised as "beautiful" appeared behind Xiao Li at some point.

As described by the adjective, it was a beautiful face, but it was lifeless, as pale as a corpse.The curly eyelashes and hair trembled weakly under the dilapidated lights of the mall, like algae spreading in the abyss, quiet and beautiful.

"Why did the NPC suddenly appear in... this...?"

Before the words fell, blood splashed, and Xiao Li's head fell directly to the ground.

The girl screamed frantically, and her scream stopped abruptly as soon as it reached the ears of other players.

Another bloody salesperson appeared in front of her out of thin air.

The eye sockets without eyeballs squeezed out a ferocious smile: "3 minutes, the time is up! Hahaha - come again next time, respected customer!"

-

A group of players has already entered the food area on the first floor.

The jacket held a wolf-eye flashlight and inspected the products on the shelves one by one.

After looking at the three rows of convenience food, he came to a conclusion: the production date of convenience food is concentrated from June to October 2010, so, based on the shelf life, the copy should be located before June 6.

Hearing the screams that something had happened, Sister Ying subconsciously looked towards the door, frowning: "Did so fast? What did the newcomer do?"

"Don't worry about it," the jacket raised his eyes casually, "First search this area first. After it is confirmed that it is safe there, let's go and see what causes of death they triggered."

Sister Ying looked at him coldly, unmoved, and walked towards the door calmly.

At the door, 551 is frantically calling, with two rabbit ears bouncing: "You have completed the first kill in less than 10 minutes after the start of the game! According to your progress speed, the goal of the S-level dungeon boss is just around the corner!"

"Low-key, low-key," Xuelu couldn't help puffing out her small chest proudly, "That's where it is."

Uncle Zhang thought this little colleague was funny, so he couldn't help laughing.He has been observing the player's movements: "All the remaining players have entered the store, so let's enter."

Xuelu was puzzled: "These two people are dead, and someone will come to check the way of death later, shouldn't we just sit back and wait?"

Uncle Zhang shook his head, with an inscrutable expression on his face: "If they find out that the deaths of these two people are related to us, they will be more vigilant. If we are not here, they will suspect that it is a prop, or they may suspect that it is one of us."

551 suddenly realized: "What's the name of this trick, fighting cattle across the mountain!"

"No," Uncle Zhang's system, Jintuan Wallet, corrected, "It's called watching the fire from the other side."

Xuelu couldn't help but said: "It seems to be confusing...?"

Facing the sluggish eyes of the two systems, Xuelu calmly smashed his shameful system: "Uncle Zhang, before the players come, let's go to the mall."

Uncle Zhang's previous guess was that the player's task might be "finding objects".But this guess was quickly denied - all players were taking goods, all kinds of goods.

Some people are pushing trolleys, and some people feel that the trolleys are inconvenient and carry shopping baskets.But without exception, they are all working hard to fill their shopping baskets.

They don't put whatever products they see, but they have a little choice: look at the price and packaging, and if there are some inappropriate ones, they will be put back on the shelf.But to say that it is very targeted, it is impossible to summarize the rules of selection.

The goods in the mall are really not good.

Just like the painting style of the [-] mall, all the products are piled up on the dusty shelves, as if washed by a sea of ​​blood, and the faded packaging bags are full of blood.

Walking among the shelves, the stench of blood lingered in his mouth and nose, not to mention the players, Xuelu, who had only experienced the practice dungeon, couldn't bear the urge to retch.

After staying in such an environment for a long time, it is hard not to be curious: How did the shopping mall become like this?

This shopping mall is very large, and when viewed from a distance from the entrance, it is difficult to see how deep the interior is.When you really go in, you will feel even more emotional.Not only is it big, but the classification and placement of the products are also well-organized.There are low-end products and high-end products, and there are many shelves of imported snacks. This should be a super-large shopping mall for the masses.

It should have been carefully instructed by the jacket, the players hardly communicated, and more than ten minutes passed, just silently repeating the behavior of taking things from the shelves.

Xuelu asked Uncle Zhang in a low voice, "Are they collecting the price with so many products? For example, collecting 1 yuan of products to pass the level. I remember the player who spoke to us asked us 'what is the most expensive thing you have'?" .”

Uncle Zhang stared intently at the added items in the shopping cart: "It's possible. However, it's too easy to simply make up the price, and there must be restrictions."

"Such as the quantity of goods?"

This is an E-level dungeon. If there is no mark, the time limit of the E-level dungeon is 12 hours.

"It's only been half an hour since the game started," Uncle Zhang looked at his watch, "If there is a limit on the number of goods, they will be more cautious. By the way, have you visited the first basement floor?"

The reason why Uncle Zhang asked this question is because according to the identity design, "Zhang Wensheng" played by Uncle Zhang cannot go to the basement floor, and "Su Xiaoqi" played by Xuelu cannot go to the second floor.

"Not yet," Xuelu scratched her head embarrassingly, "It's the first time I entered the E-level dungeon as an official NPC. I was too nervous, and I kept looking at my identity information during the preparation time..."

Uncle Zhang comforted him: "It's okay, I was more nervous than you in the first official dungeon. At that time, the whole situation was in the dark, and no player was eliminated."

Over there, after confirming that it is safe to take the goods, etc., under the plan of the jacket, the players have prepared teams of three, three, and four to explore the maps of the basement, first, and second floors respectively.

"There are two old men on the first floor, so it's not easy to start with." Uncle Zhang made a decision, "We are also temporarily separated. I will go to the second floor, and you will go to the first basement floor."

Seeing Uncle Zhang's back disappear on the stairs, Xuelu encouraged himself: "You can do it!"

However, the moment Xuelu stepped into the first basement floor, Xuelu exploded with anger.

He raised his head helplessly, looked up the stairs, and made sure that no such thing as "time and space travel" happened to him.

How is this going……?

I saw that in the pitch-black space, on the purposely raised basement floor, crowded with people.

Everyone, everyone.

Layer upon layer, layer upon layer.

It may be alive, or it may be long dead.The mountain of meat piled up into a sea of ​​meat, filling the space of Guangliao.

The indescribable rotten smell, and the rotten aroma of something fermenting, slowly drifted up the stairs.

551 was also terrified, and the rooster kept crowing: "What is this... Is this a horror clip that you can watch without paying? Master, don't get dizzy, master——!"

Xuelu's reaction was pretty good, the players in front of him were running back crying and howling.

Due to the extremely dim lights on the basement floor, the night vision of the players is not as good as that of the NPCs. They probably have to go to the bottom of the stairs to find the tricks hidden in the darkness of the basement floor. At this moment, the sound of distressed footsteps came from below the stairs.

Xuelu's eyes lit up, and he had a bold idea.

——In fact, all the stairs in the shopping mall are elevators, but they stopped working because of a power outage and were used as ordinary stairs.

He grinned and started the elevator.

-

The young man with the computer bag is the leader of the team. He has experienced two dungeons, but neither of them is of the horror department.But compared to the other two brawny men screaming like chickens, he was the calmest. He shouted to the other two not to be afraid, and to go back to the first floor first.

It’s just that for some reason, in the darkness of the three people’s terrified panting and hasty footsteps, suddenly there was the hum of the machine’s operation, and the sharp “squeak” sound of the gears that hadn’t operated for too long.

Immediately, the elevator under her feet started to work!

Where does the electricity come from?

The young man with the computer bag didn't dare to think about it, he moved his legs frantically, trying to surpass the speed of the elevator.But things didn't go as expected, the elevator seemed to be aware of his struggle, and the speed became faster and faster, gradually accelerating to the point where human legs couldn't match it!

With a dull sound of flesh colliding on the floor, the three players were thrown back to the floor of the first basement floor by the crazy elevator.

Because he couldn't stand firmly, the young man with the computer bag was thrown especially badly. He was thrown several meters, and then stopped by a soft wall.

The soft touch on the back is actually very comfortable, but once you think of the material of "their", you will be horrified and chill all over.

The young man scrambled forward, ignoring the command of the jacket to "watch your words", and shouted in a gaffe: "Help, help! Brother Wang (jacket) help me! Where are you guys? Where!"

No one answered him, only the terrified breathing of the pig teammates could be heard in the silence.

There was also the sound of extremely faint footsteps.

Elegant, nonchalant and pampered.

Before the young man tried his best to recall which of his teammates it was, a beam of bright light hit him in the face condescendingly.

Caught off guard by the light, the young man's eyes stung and burst into tears.But in tears, he saw clearly the source of the glare——

It was the "beautiful" salesperson.

He was holding a flashlight, the cheapest kind with batteries, and his pale face was full of indifference and contempt.

To be honest, he is really beautiful, with a clean outline, exquisite facial features, especially those dark eyes with dark eyes, curled eyelashes like a butterfly leaping from the shore of the abyss, under the backlight, engraved with fear on the retina.

But now, absolutely no one would be distracted from admiring his beauty.

The terrified gaze of the young man with the computer bag landed on his blood-stained chin, on his blood-stained employee nameplate, which seemed to be written on it, which seemed to be "Su Xiaoqi", and finally on the employee who was not holding a flashlight. on the other hand.

It was a small fire ax as cute as its owner.The blade of the ax seemed to have been cherished and maintained by the master, so clean that it reflected his ugly face polluted by fear.

"No—" the young man heard himself crying in despair, "Don't kill me, don't, I didn't go downstairs on purpose!"

"Shh," the pretty salesperson seemed to hate noise, with her slender fingers resting on her lips, "You're so noisy."

The young man quickly shut up, his brain was working hard, he remembered that there are conditions for NPCs to kill people, since he is not dead yet, it means that the conditions for NPCs to kill people have not been triggered yet!

So, he thought, what is the condition for this NPC to kill?

He saw through the light leaked from the flashlight that the two screaming chicken-like strong men were still trying to challenge the elevator and escaped towards the first floor, so he said, "It's the two of them! It was they who suggested the idea of ​​going downstairs, and I was follow!"

Sure enough, the beautiful salesperson tilted her head: "Really? What about you, aren't you curious, what happened on the first basement floor?"

As he said that, he suddenly laughed: "Since you are not curious about what happened here, do you... want to stay?"

The young man repeatedly refused: "I don't, I still can't! If you have a lot of adults, please let me go, I..."

The young man suddenly saw a corner of something protruding from the pretty salesperson's chest pocket.If he's not mistaken, it's a circular shape.

Round...not a lighter, not a wallet...what carry-on is round?Small mirror?

The young man immediately thought that his girlfriend always carried a small mirror with her to tidy up her appearance at any time.According to her, all beautiful women are like this.

This salesman is very beautiful, and he also carries a small mirror with him, so he must love beauty!

right!This must be the hint given by the dungeon!The dungeon will not give people a way out!

The young man's eyes lit up: "You are so beautiful and handsome, just let me go, if you need, I'll get you someone else..."

As if hearing what he wanted, the salesperson finally smiled.

The young man hurriedly continued: "Don't worry, when I go back, I will trick other people here too!"

"You're right," he tilted his head naively and cruelly, then took a step back pityingly, "I'm indeed beautiful."

The young man didn't know why the salesperson agreed with his words, but took a step back.

But a few seconds later, the moment his head fell to the ground, he understood.

It turns out that "beautiful" is the key word.And that step back, the pretty salesman hates blood staining his clothes.

Damn it, why didn't he think that this is a trap... He took two people to test the poison, but he didn't expect that he helped others to test the poison...
