Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

Anyone who has watched horror movies knows that to be scary, the preliminary preparation is essential. The dark atmosphere, strange sounds, and flashing shadows are enough to scare people into battle.

The atmosphere created with great difficulty in the game is fine now, but it was completely ruined by one sentence. Now the players look at that tentacle flopping around, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a squid's tentacle.

At this time, the monster finally emerged from the ground, probably because there were no other people in the place where it grew, so it grew as it wanted, so ugly that it was unconventional and extraordinary.

Let all the players go through a sanity test on the spot, but it's not because they are afraid, but because they are ugly.

The game also understands that this kind of damage is irreparable, so it simply announced that it has entered the battle round. According to the setting, the battle process is turn-based.

[Establish the attack order, and determine the order according to the player's agility value]

[They are Monster, Zhou Wenyan, Shen Dongqing, Detective, Doctor]

[The monster chooses to attack the doctor. It is huge in size but very fast, and its tentacles slammed over.]

The doctor screamed, rolled around on the ground, brushed past the tentacles, and barely avoided it.She turned her head, and saw that the tentacles made a deep hole on the ground, and the gravel splashed, which was full of lethality at first glance.

【Next is Zhou Wenyan, please decide your attack method】

Before Zhou Wenyan moved, Shen Dongqing rushed up first.

The detective was dumbfounded: "It's not your turn yet!"

Shen Dongqing's words came from afar: "Is it really a turn-based game?"

The detective was startled, but also reacted.

This is not really playing a turn-based game on the computer, one by one gourd dolls save grandpa, everyone can play together here!

After he figured it out, he picked up the weapon that the aborigine had dropped on the ground and rushed up.

Although the photographer is a girl, she also went up to do her part.

It's a pity that these two people are not strong in combat. Before they could touch the monster, they were caught by a tentacle and thrown aside.

As for the doctor, she has long been hiding in a corner.

【You chose melee combat】

[Perform strength check, agility check]

[The strength check was successful, the agility check failed, the monster's tentacles squirmed, dodging the blow]

The fight over there is in full swing, and the game is still broadcasting in real time, buzzing like a mosquito, which is annoying.

Shen Dongqing said impatiently, "Shut up."

Game: [No way]

The game is a bit proud, it used to be so angry that it vomited blood, but it was rare to be able to get so angry that Shen Dongqing made it feel a sense of accomplishment.

It's so easy to please.

[Check failed]

【You didn't hit the monster】

[Check failed]

……

Under the non-stop broadcast of the game, the players present can know that this monster has rough skin and thick flesh. Even if it finally succeeds in the test, it only deducts a little blood from the monster. You can tell by its huge figure. It is estimated that the blood bar of this thing is two or three meters long.

Su Xiaoying stood by and said sarcastic words: "Don't waste your efforts, this is an existence that cannot be eliminated."

It was the first time for Shen Dongqing to encounter such a villain who was neither human nor ghost, and she didn't know how to deal with it.He looked at the monster with its teeth and claws open, and muttered, "Sure enough, this idiot's game is tricking us."

Zhou Wenyan also stepped aside.

The current situation is that monsters can't do anything to them, and they can't do anything to monsters either.

The monster may have stayed in the cave all year round as a fat house. After exercising for a while, he was tired and stopped his movements to stare at the players present.

It seems to be gathering strength.

There was an expression on the monster's grotesque face, probably——I'll kill you all when I finish charging.

Su Xiaoying: "If you want to leave the ancient town, there is only one way to go, and that is to suppress this monster."

Shen Dongqing was slightly contemptuous: "Then you are too stupid, it took me two seconds to figure out another way."

Su Xiaoying was taken aback: "What?"

Shen Dongqing's voice fell crisply: "Kill it!"

Su Xiaoying: "This, this is impossible..."

The doctor who had been lingering behind the bushes realized that the situation was not right, so he poked his head out and said, "You can use Pushed dice!"

Pushing the dice.

After the failure, when you are about to face death, you can apply for a desperate roll. If you succeed, you can get double the benefits, but if you fail, the punishment will be terrible.

But does this have anything to do with Su Xiaoying?Anyway, the terrible punishment did not fall on her.

"A push-and-roll might succeed," said the doctor. "There's nothing we can do."

"That makes sense." Shen Dongqing nodded, "Then make a desperate roll."

Although I don't quite understand the meaning of this desperate bet, but since I have this skill, I don't need to use it for nothing.

The game may lie in some places, but in terms of rules, it cannot deceive the player.

It's really a game of luck, and everything is played by the dice, whether it's clue gathering, combat, or... life and death.

Ding--

One hundred dice fell.

Game: "Big Success!"

At the same time, Shen Dongqing threw the wooden stick in his hand.

The monster seemed to have sensed something, and desperately waved its tentacles, trying to stop the wooden stick coming through the air.

But under the blessing of great success, the wooden stick cunningly avoided all the tentacles, and finally poked the monster's core with a "pop".

The monster let out a groan.

Then, at a speed that didn't match its huge body, it quickly climbed to the bottom of the cliff, and even the wooden stick on its body trembled, looking very painful.

Shen Dongqing fell into deep thought: "Where did I hit it?"

Other players: "..."

The detective struggled to get up: "We have won?"

The doctor shrank back: "Yes, it should be."

Su Xiaoying couldn't believe it: "How is it possible?"

After a while of silence, the game: [Because the monster hurt his body and was hit, he planned to return to the cave as a dead house, and he didn't want to come out for nearly 100 years]

[Copy clearance]

Obviously, it didn't expect to pass the level like this.

Shen Dongqing: "That's it?"

Is this gone?

The game also felt humiliated, and after broadcasting the result, it never spoke again.

The doctor got up: "Is it over?" She even looked to her right hand, but the sarcoma on it did not subside, "What's going on?"

The detective also breathed a sigh of relief: "It should be a cutscene, we need to take this person out."

Su Xiaoying: "I can't go out, if you can go out, please bring this to my family." She put a hair tie on the ground.

Detective: "What about you?"

Su Xiaoying: "I will wait for the arrival of the next batch of people."

Following Su Xiaoying's words, the group of aborigines lying on the ground squirmed and straightened up, gradually regaining their human form, and they walked down the mountain as if nothing had happened.

After everyone left, Su Xiaoying turned into a tentacle monster again, the tentacles separated, and Zhou Aying walked out from it, and she was the same, standing there expressionless.

"Perhaps one day, we can wait for relief."

Saying so, Su Xiaoying led Zhou Aying and jumped off the cliff together.

Other players: ?

How do you feel that their partnership was tricked by an NPC?

Zhou Wenyan: "The dungeon is about to restart."

The detective quickly picked up the hair tie on the ground and ran out of the ancient town.

After the player left, there was a rumbling sound behind him. From the corner of his eye, he could see that the back seemed to have been wiped by an eraser, returning to the way it was before they came.

Shen Dongqing: "It seems that this copy cannot be destroyed."

There was some regret in the words.

Game: ...I'm so sorry.

A group of people quickly arrived at the exit of the ancient town, and just as they were about to leave, two tentacles popped out of the darkness.

Because as long as you leave this ancient town, you have passed the customs. The doctor was not prepared at all. He was caught off guard by the tentacles and was dragged back abruptly.

"Help, help me—"

The detective shuddered.

Will he be next?After all, he had touched gold before.

The detective ran outside in a hurry, but the tentacles did not arrive. When he was about to leave the dungeon, he saw Shen Dongqing retract the foot that was stepping on the tentacles.

The photographer was still there and said: "Thank you, I don't know if this camera will still be there when I go back, I will give this to you first."

After the photographer handed over the camera, he broke away from the copy.

Shen Dongqing: "Let's take a photo as a souvenir."

Zhou Wenyan held the camera in one hand and hugged the person in the other, and took a selfie of the two of them.

click-

On the screen, the heads of the two people were touching each other, behind him was the rising Xihui after the reboot.

【You have left the ancient town】

[This is an unconventional copy, there is no point reward, and it will drop a special item [Polaroid*1]]

Shen Dongqing touched her pocket and took out a pink and blue camera: "Polaroid?"

The description of the item is written on it - a one-time imaging camera, which can be taken at any time.

Looking again, there are two photos inside, which are the images left by the two of them in the previous copy.

Shen Dongqing: "It's quite useful."

He pondered for a while, and took pictures in the room on the spot.

Halfway through the filming, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Zhou Wenyan went over to open the door.

Wu Jia's face was revealed, and he raised his hand: "Sorry, I didn't bother you, did I?"

Zhou Wenyan: "What's the matter?"

Wu Jia: "When you entered the dungeon, we got a message that the ghost city is about to open, as long as you stay in the city when the ghost gate opens, you can enter the ghost city, so let me remind you, don't Then enter the tour..."

Before he finished speaking, the two people in the room disappeared inexplicably. Wu Jia stayed where he was, and stiffly spit out the rest of the sentence: "...the show is over."

Wu Jiaren was dumbfounded.

Why did the person disappear before he finished speaking?

【You have entered the yacht】

[The yacht will run aground in half an hour, please be prepared]

Shen Dongqing was caught off guard and appeared on a small yacht, surrounded by blue sea and blue sky, the sea breeze was blowing slowly, and seagulls fluttered past above.

"What's the matter?" Shen Dongqing was a little at a loss.

They were just sitting in the room taking selfies, why did they suddenly enter the game?

Shen Dongqing's reaction made the players next to him mistake him for a novice. A girl with glasses explained: "We are in the game now, not filming or being kidnapped. Be careful, dying here is tantamount to being real." dead."

Although Shen Dongqing didn't understand why the glasses girl had to say such a bunch of nonsense, but she could feel that she was a good person, so she let out an "oh".

In the eyes of other players, this kind of calm performance will only make them feel scared.

A man in a jacket said: "There is still half an hour, let's get to know each other first, after all, we need to get along for a while."

No one responded to this proposal, and the players all reported their families.

There are now six people sitting on the yacht, namely the woman with glasses, the jacket, the man with the tattoo, the woman with the long skirt, and Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan.

The tattooed man is also a new player, he cursed: "What the hell is this place? Stranded? Can you control this wreck?"

The jacket raised his chin: "Try it yourself."

The tattooed man straightened up to control the steering wheel of the yacht, but no matter how he turned, the yacht was out of control, unable to stop, unable to turn, and moving forward tirelessly.

"Damn!" The tattooed man patted the steering wheel, "Where is this going?!"

Jacket didn't bother to talk to this reckless newcomer, but took this opportunity to look around.

Surrounded by a vast sea, without any reference, it seems that there is only a small yacht in the vast world.

The tattooed man scolded for a long time, but seeing that there was no response, he could only shut his mouth.

After a moment of silence, there was a sudden exclamation.

The players thought something was going on and looked over nervously.

Shen Dongqing scooped up a handful of sea water: "There are fish below."

Other players: ...

The tattooed man also scolded: "Are you an idiot? Isn't it normal that there are fish in the sea?"

Sea water dripped from between Shen Dongqing's fingers, and he said seriously: "It's a very big fish."

Tattooed man: "How big can it be?"

Shen Dongqing: "It's very big." He added a description, "Bigger than a boat."

"It's not normal for such a big fish..." The tattooed man was halfway through speaking, when he suddenly noticed something was wrong, he slowly lowered his head.

At some point, the yacht sailed to a darker sea area, a large area was indigo blue, but after looking at it for a long time, I found that it was not the color of sea water, but a huge object lurking under the water surface.

Sure enough, it was a very big fish swimming under the yacht. As long as it turned over or something, the yacht would be knocked over in the sea immediately.

The players all felt a wave of fear.

This is not something that ghosts can bring, it is the powerlessness in the face of nature.

The girl with glasses lowered her voice: "Why is this fish so big..."

Shen Dongqing said, "I can't even fit the grill."

Glasses woman:?

The tattooed man who was very arrogant just now is as cowardly as his grandson: "It, it, it won't do anything to us, will it?"

Maybe the atmosphere was too tense, Shen Dongqing took the initiative to ease the atmosphere: "Let me tell a joke, sharks don't actually eat people, but they will take a bite, so the entire sea area is full of sharks, and every fish is there Saying 'Bah, it's not tasty' and eating the fish in one mouthful."

"Ha ha--"

Shen Dongqing was overjoyed.

But other players can't get the joke.

Shen Dongqing blinked her eyes: "Isn't it funny?"

Zhou Wenyan joined in: "It's funny."

Shen Dongqing snorted twice, and said, "So this fish probably won't eat people."

It's just that after this scene, not only did the atmosphere not ease, but it became more dignified.

But fortunately, the fish was just passing by, and it didn't take long before it swam away silently.

Only then did the players on the yacht dare to pant loudly.

But not long after, the players became nervous again.

"There is an island in front!" The woman with glasses pointed to the front.

Others looked at it, and a green color gradually appeared in front of them.

It may be that the yacht was about to reach the destination, the speed of the yacht suddenly accelerated, rushed over, and did not stop until it reached the beach. In the end, half of the yacht stopped on the beach and ran aground.

Players, look at me, I look at you, no one dares to go down first.

The first one to go down was Shen Dongqing. He jumped down and picked up a hermit crab on the ground.

The hermit crab soared into the air, flapping its little claws feebly.

"Can you eat it?" Shen Dongqing picked up the poor hermit crab.

Zhou Wenyan: "I haven't tried it."

Shen Dongqing sized it up, compared the hermit crab with the big fish that just swam past, and released the hermit crab.

The hermit crab that survived the catastrophe turned a corner and quickly burrowed back into the sea, leaving only a thin trace on the sand.

At this time, the voice of the game sounded: [Because the yacht ran aground, you will be stranded on the island, please find a way to leave the island]

The jacket also jumped off the yacht: "There is no time limit this time."

Generally speaking, the game will limit a time, three or seven days, once the puzzles of the game cannot be solved within this time, the whole army will be wiped out.

The girl in the long skirt carefully held the corner of her skirt: "The scenery here is pretty good."

Maybe it was out of the erratic state and stepped on the solid ground, the tattooed man relaxed: "I thought it was some kind of game, it turned out to be leaving the island, let's light a bonfire here and ask for help."

The woman with glasses pushed her glasses: "It won't be that simple."

Tattooed man: "Why do women interrupt when men talk? As long as we light the bonfire, passing planes and ships will find it, so we can leave immediately."

The jacket gave the tattooed man a cold look.

Compared with the self-righteous tattooed man, Shen Dongqing, who was bluffing before, has also become better.

but……

What about those two?

The remaining players looked around and found that the two had already picked coconuts there.

The players were speechless.

Do you really think of this as an island tour?

Shen Dongqing climbed onto the coconut tree two or three times, and after shaking it twice, the overripe coconut fell down with a "plop plop" and landed on the ground.

After shaking, he jumped directly and fell into Zhou Wenyan's arms.

Zhou Wenyan embraced him, and then reached out to touch Shen Dongqing's messy bangs.

Shen Dongqing smiled and kissed Zhou Wenyan, turned around and brought two coconuts, and found a sharp stone nearby to smash the coconuts open.

They drank one by one.

The wild coconut water was very sweet, Shen Dongqing took a big gulp down, wiped his mouth, and said strangely: "Why did the game suddenly pull us into the dungeon?"

Zhou Wenyan took a sip of coconut juice: "Wu Jia said before that the ghost town will only send invitations to players who stay in the rest area, and those in the dungeon cannot enter the ghost gate."

Shen Dongqing immediately sat up straight: "So the game doesn't want us to enter the ghost town?"

Zhou Wenyan: "That's right."

Shen Dongqing hugged the coconut and said, "But I still remember..."

When he was in the life science research company, the ghost from the ghost town told him that no matter where he was, he could enter the ghost gate.

He felt that way too.

So the game is wasted effort.

Shen Dongqing: "However, why do I feel that the game is afraid."

I am afraid that he will enter the ghost town, so I have been playing tricks in the game recently, and I want him to be included in the game.

Is there any secret in the ghost town?

Shen Dongqing tilted her head and thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out.

Zhou Wenyan rubbed his head: "You'll know when it arrives."

Shen Dongqing was not a person who would be trapped by doubts, he immediately put the question behind him, and happily drank the coconut juice.

"The sea view is so beautiful, I haven't seen it before." Shen Dongqing buried her hands in the sand, feeling the temperature from the sea breeze, feeling extremely comfortable.

Zhou Wenyan put his hands on the shoulders of the people around him: "It's not bad."

The two of them just looked at the sea view.

On the other side, the players were far less relaxed than the two of them. They searched around the beach, but found nothing useful. The yacht couldn't be started and needed repairs.

Relying on a yacht to leave the island is completely nonsense.

Jackets can only take some useful things off the yacht.

"A bad news, we don't have much supplies, especially fresh water."

Tattooed man: "Water? Isn't there water in front of this?"

Now no one wants to talk to this idiot anymore.

Seawater and freshwater are completely two concepts. Without a conversion device, drinking seawater is simply asking for a dead end.

Girl in long skirt: "There are coconuts over there."

There are several coconut trees growing along the beach.

But according to the number of players, the coconuts here will be eaten up in two days.

Jacket: "I can only go deep."

He counted the supplies on the boat: "We only have two bottles of mineral water, a lighter, a pack of cigarettes, and a knife, all gone."

Tattooed man: "Go inside? Don't you stay by the beach to ask for help? Maybe there is a passing boat."

"That's enough." The girl with glasses cooled down, "If there is no shipping line near here, no ship will come here until you die. If you want to die, I can take you there now."

Tattooed man: "You are a woman..."

The girl in glasses kicked the tattooed man to the ground without talking nonsense, then she patted the gravel on her body, and walked towards the island with the jacket.

The woman in the long skirt looked at both sides, and finally followed the side with more people.

The tattooed man gritted his teeth and stood up, "Pooh", but still didn't dare to stay here alone, so he could only follow in a desperate manner.

The inside of the beach is a rainforest, probably because they are afraid of snakes, ants and mosquitoes. The women in jackets and glasses walking in the front are very vigilant, while the women in long skirts and men with tattoos in the middle are staggering because they are inexperienced, which highlights the back The two of them are extremely relaxed.

Shen Dongqing was still enthusiastic: "It's like survival in the wild! I want to eat wild game!"

His words spread to the front, and the jacket pouted contemptuously.

This kind of newcomer who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth must be the first to die.

He cursed in a low voice: "Unlucky."

This time, he ran into four newcomers, one was a burden, and the other three were mentally ill.

The author has something to say: young jackets don't understand...
