Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

Thanks to Yang Qiu's painstaking efforts to pave the way and deeply implanted in the player's consciousness "the main realism of the "Alien" game", the ingenious pen who was entrusted with the important task presented all the "task text information" in the form of files I have no opinion on this style of painting; I don't feel anything wrong with the "task steps" carried out by means of investigation and evidence collection...

The one who doesn’t like to do quests gave me medicine and expressed the emotion that normal players would have: “Are we here to play an RPG or a detective game, just brush a cult copy and let the players push it and it’s over?”

"Games, you have to have the Wushuang Mowing series and the Rusty Lake series to be fun, and you will get tired of killing monsters every day." Miaobi Shenghua unconsciously took the tap water, and pointed to the two partners Agent Stanford, "Look, we have NPC assistance in this mission, isn't this very RPG?"

Detective Stanford who silently led the way for the two undead: "..."

He could understand what these undead said, but it could also be said that he couldn't understand at all—what is Wushuang Mowing the Grass? ?What is Rusty Lake? ? What are NPC and RPG? ?

And why do you undead talk about games? Could it be that investigating cults is actually a "game" in your eyes? ?

The Stanford detective who was full of complaints, with a serious "NPC face", brought the two undead to the first stop of the investigation: the low-rent housing settlement in Liujiao Lane, Nancheng District.

The low-rent housing in Liujiao Lane are dozens of apartment buildings confiscated from the nobles, and the city hall paid for the recovery of more than a dozen buildings, concentrating the entire alley as public rental housing.

The buildings on this block are generally four or five storeys high, all red brick buildings, with water pipes and sewer pipes, and a small number of relatively new buildings have been connected to electric wires. A total of more than 900 households have been resettled. There is a small and medium-sized community in China. scale.

Because gang members, gamblers, prostitutes, thieves and thieves in the city were all arrested as free labor, and a large number of unemployed people were absorbed by the city hall's contract worker employment policy, Liujiao Lane, which used to have poor law and order and frequent cases, is now very Stablize.

When Miaobi Shenghua and Give me medicine reappeared in this street where they also fought once a month later (earth time), you can see that the residents facing the street have dared to open the windows on the first floor, and there are women who dare to stay in the street. Street stalls sell simple processed mashed potatoes, potato cakes and other snacks.

Hmm... Players certainly don't think about improving the city's law and order. For the bustling Liujiao Alley, there is only one reaction: "There are more NPCs in this place!"

As for giving me medicine, this guy's attitude is very gamer: "Screw so many citizen NPCs with balls, just waste server resources in this kind of place."

"Whatever it is, it's fine if you don't get stuck." Miaobi Shenghua said indifferently, "Speaking of which, the bandwidth of this game is really awesome. I have never known what is stuck after playing for so long, and I feel like I am asked to play other online games Couldn't get used to it."

There are still Stanford agents who can't understand: "..."

Like other neighborhoods with many residents, the resettlement community has a security point (similar to a street police station), with two security guards on duty.

When Stanford detectives brought the undead to the door, two security guards from the Liujiao Lane Security Point were already waiting inside the house.

Seeing the two undead brought by the Stanford detectives with their own eyes, the expressions of the two security officers were visibly tense...

After Dutata City was liberated, the city hall also had an additional teleportation point, and a warehouse of the Undead Chamber of Commerce and a half-rotten zombie NPC appeared in a building with a back street in the Midtown.

The old players who tested the first test and the second test have experienced the joy of attacking towns and opening new maps for a long time. They are not very interested in Dutata City, a main city with little functionality (providing player services). I haven’t seen it for a few days. When the new main city opened the night watchman mission, they played their own curses. Only the third-test players would happily pass over and run the map when there is no big group.

These three-test players have caused troubles for the residents of the city... What the old players have done to the residents of Westham and the residents of Inner City, these guys have done the same thing.

Various emoji packs on the city walls of Midtown, the trampled roofs of residents in the port area, innocent passers-by who will be entangled for a long time if they accidentally collide with the eyes of the undead, and the strange noises coming from the streets and alleys in the middle of the night, they are driven to run for several streets Drunkards—the incidence of public security incidents in Dutata City dropped significantly at night, which was almost entirely due to the "merits" of these three test players.

The security guards at the security spots in various blocks in the urban area have a delicate and complicated mood towards the undead, and their emotions are difficult to understand.

"Good day, Detective, I'm Layton, the security officer in Hexagon Alley, and this is my partner Watts." One of the security officers forced himself to smile politely, and reached out to Detective Stanford.

"Good day, I'm Stanford." Stanford shook hands with Layton, turned his head and glanced at the two skeletons who followed the door, and introduced with difficulty, "Well... this lady of the undead is a wonderful pen. Mister Undead is giving me medicine."

Stanford has not yet passed the examination and entered the matrix, and cannot see the names on the heads of the undead, so he can only rely on his own memory... Fortunately, the clothes of the two undead are easy to distinguish (one is wearing a robe and the other is wearing leather armor), no As for making his eyes darken.

Miaobi Shenghua smiled at the story NPC in a friendly manner, gave me medicine and bowed his head to chat with the people in the blood alliance who had no interest in the story missions, completely ignoring them.

After hearing the introduction, the two security guards showed an awkward look of dullness and confusion on their faces...

Detective Stanford understood the reaction of these two colleagues who belonged to the Department of Public Security very well. When he heard the name of the undead, his reaction was similar to the two of them.

"Ms. Zhao invited these two undead to assist us in investigating the cult in the slum." Detective Stanford slightly emphasized his tone and reminded the two colleagues to restore their attention. "Layton, Watts, please introduce the situation in Hexagon Alley."

"Okay." Layton, the older security guard, came back to his senses, and glanced at the two undead out of the corner of his eye. Smile, "Please, please sit down, both of you."

The Department of Public Security has always attached great importance to the problem of cults in the slums. After the lottery of each resettlement site was completed, the security officers assigned to each block also did some work on it.

"According to our knowledge, among the 921 households resettled in Liujiaoxiang, there are two households with clear evidence and witnesses proving that they are involved with cult members."

Security officer Layton took out a file from the cabinet, hesitated for a moment, and handed it to Miaobi Shenghua.

"The first family is Mrs. John's who lives in No. 12, [-]th Floor. Mrs. John is a laundry woman who works in the river beach laundry. She has two daughters and a son. The eldest daughter is married, and the son-in-law also lives in At home. The shack where their family lived was very small, and the family lived very tensely. The second daughter, her sister, and her brother-in-law had conflicts due to friction in life, and they left home two years ago and have not returned yet.”

"A year ago, Mrs. John's neighbor saw her second daughter, who had run away from home, walking in an alley far away from their home. She had a big belly and seemed to be pregnant. After learning about it, Mrs. John rushed to the neighborhood I searched for it, but the people living in that alley claimed that they didn't see the pregnant woman..."

"Is it also in the slums?" The clever pen who flipped through the files interjected.

The combination of the young woman's voice and the ferocious skeleton made Layton, the security officer, feel a strong sense of discomfort. He was stunned for a while before he remembered to answer: "Yes, Ms. Undead. You may also know that the slums are huge, and there are There are hundreds of alleys, and many families don’t even know how many people live in the alleys where they live, and they may not see them a few times a year, let alone be familiar with them.”

Miaobi Shenghua nodded, and said strangely: "Just saw that the second daughter who ran away from home is pregnant, how can we be sure that she is related to a cult?"

Sheriff Layton was very conflicted, and there was nothing more awkward than explaining female childbirth to a undead: "Because pregnancy is very important, Ms. Undead. If a woman in the slums becomes pregnant, there will be a period of time after giving birth." Unable to work, she needs her husband and relatives to provide her with living security in order to give birth with peace of mind."

"Mrs. John asked all the houses in that alley in order to find her daughter, but none of them admitted to seeing the pregnant woman. This is unreasonable for the situation in the slum - perhaps you can understand that most of the houses in the slum Life is not abundant, even if the wife has conflicts with her natal family, since the mother-in-law has come to the door, who would refuse the assistance of the wife's natal family when the wife is about to give birth?"

The corner of Miaobi Shenghua's mouth twitched, and said, "Uh... I can understand that it is very difficult for people in the slums to support pregnant women. Is that what you mean?"

Layton and Watts nodded together.

These two security guards were both residents of Nancheng District. During the era of the Ezekiel family's rule, people of their background could not get into a serious establishment. They both relied on doing odd jobs in the Security Department to support their families.

The undead captured Du Tata City, a large number of civil servants, cadres, and clerks were arrested, and many people from the Department of Public Security were also sacked. Layton and Watts, two temporary workers who used to do errands for people, got a chance to make a difference.

It is also because of their own backgrounds that the two security guards know so much about the situation in the slums—not to mention the residents in the slums, even those who live in Nancheng District, suddenly there is an adult in the family. Losing the ability to work and having an extra mouth waiting to be fed, the family's finances will also become tense.

"Tanima is real." Miaobi Shenghua couldn't help sighing, and suddenly thought of something, his expression changed suddenly, "Wait——didn't all the residents of the slums move away, and the second daughter has never been found?"

"Yes, Ms. Undead." Layton, the security officer, couldn't bear it. "Just like those women who got pregnant suddenly in the past, no one has seen Mrs. John's second daughter since then."

Miaobi Shenghua gasped: "Fuck, there are more examples of this situation?!"

Layton and Watts, security guards, looked strangely at Detective Stanford.

Detective Stanford looked odd, too.

Just... aren't you an undead?How can you know nothing about the evil god sect?

Thinking of the particularity of Tarantan's undead, Agent Stanford explained uncertainly: "Maybe you also know... Ms. Undead, a follower of the 'Eternal Sleeper', always tries to trick women into giving birth to the evil god's relatives—— In the name of love or something else, let the family members of the evil gods be conceived in a woman's womb, and if they can be born smoothly, they can even devour the mother's body as a blood sacrifice."

write like an angel:"??"

No, I have absolutely no idea!What an outrageous plot!

"If it is a man who is deceived, the family members of the 'eternal sleepers' who come from the void will use them as a tool for attachment. Whether it is giving birth to the family members of the evil god or being attached to the family members of the evil gods, it is a fatal thing, and those who respond will definitely die. long."

Agent Stanford found that the undead lady in front of him really didn't know much about the sect of evil gods. He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and explained in more detail: "Some dependents of evil gods can come through parasitism or attachment, and some dependents of evil gods need to come. Performing grand blood sacrifices, the 'Eternal Sleepers' fall into the former category."

"Since the city's night watchmen discovered traces of the activities of the 'Eternal Sleepers' believers more than a hundred years ago, they have conducted many follow-up investigations and successively hunted and killed hundreds of suspected believers or infected people, but they were only driven out of the city; the remaining Even the night watchmen are helpless after the believers have mixed into the crowded slums."

A few or a dozen or even dozens of cult members hid in slums with no grassroots management, high mobility, and a population of more than 30. It was too difficult to find them out.

The local churches can't even use the most effective means of isolation and ban-not to mention how to isolate a slum that is as large as half the size of the city, who will support more than 30 mouths?

write like an angel:"……"

Well, the plot of this mission is very restrained.

"Then what about the next family?" Miaobi Shenghuadan asked in pain.

Security officer Layton swallowed, and said: "The second family is the Gusta family who lives in No. 24 on the fifth floor of Building [-]. Their family is a survivor of last summer's 'Dark Day' in the slums."

After a pause, Layton added: "Because there are several incidents of cult incidents in the slums every year, the Secretary of Justice and the Night Watchmen do not give additional names to the incidents, but collectively call them 'Dark Day'."

Brilliantly written: "...For NPCs, the background of this world is too dangerous!"

Layton looked at Agent Stanford in confusion, what do you mean?

Agent Stanford didn't look sideways.

It's useless to look at him, he hasn't been in contact with these two undead for long, and he can't understand their code words!

Layton, the security officer who did not get an explanation, had to continue to introduce: "Last summer, someone in the slums claimed to hear something being crushed by a large reptile at night. Due to the frequent occurrence of incidents in the slums, the night watchmen did not ignore it." At that time, two investigators were sent into the slums to investigate, and within three days they took away several residents who were mentally unstable and living in extreme poverty for isolation observation."

"But that sound didn't disappear, but more people could hear it at night."

"On the fifth day, the people in the alley next door were awakened by the sound of the collapse of the wooden house and the screams of people in the middle of the night. When they went out to check with a torch, they found that there was a dark monster like a huge slug above the area. Creeping over piles of ruined houses."

"Witnesses can't see the whole picture of the monster, they can only see that the monster's shape is very unstable, its shape keeps disintegrating, and it grows twisted granulation to repair itself..."

The jaw of Miaobi Shenghua couldn't stop dropping, and he looked over with horror on his face even giving me medicine who had no interest in the plot of the mission.

"No one dared to get close to that monster, and the nearby people screamed and fled the area. It wasn't until the night watchman arrived in the morning that people discovered that the people in that area only had houses built on the very edge. Gusta's house on top of the hill survived."

"But Gusta's family is not having a good time... Gusta's wife saw the monster from the window that night, and was frightened to death on the spot; his youngest son was also very bad, and fell into a half-mad state after that. Night watchman After repeated inquiries for a long time, I only learned from the youngest son of the Gusta family that the neighbor not far from their house seems to be secretly worshiping something..."
