Chapter 6
Chapter 5: Travel At Night
“ding—”
A crisp and sweet voice sounded from everyone’s mobile phones at the same time, it was exactly 4:30 in the afternoon.
Lu Tingliu took out her mobile phone and looked at it.
“Check-in location: Baihua Road Youth Hostel; check-in time: 18:00.”
The eight people of Galaxy Technology were divided into two distinct teams, and neither of them asked each other where to sign in. Jiang Luo smiled brightly and said, “I’m glad to have spent a pleasant afternoon with you! Then let’s go first?”
Chu Xian smiled: “I wish all the best.”
The three of Jiang Luo’s team left, and after about ten minutes, Chu Xian led people downstairs.
Their car was still there, a group of people got into the car, and the navigation showed that it would take an hour to get to Baihua Road Youth Hostel.
“Captain,” Lu Tingliu remembered halfway through the drive, “Actually, I found something in Galaxy Technology.”
“What?”
“A suicide note and a B-level side quest, but I didn’t answer it. Can I read the suicide note to you?”
She accepted the quest of the spell file, so she didn’t bring the file out. All the contents above have been included in her side quest panel, which can be viewed at any time.
Chu Xian nodded.
Lu Tingliu read: ‘suicide note. Xinxin, baby, I love you. Xinxin, marrying you is the happiest thing in my life, you are my angel, I love you. Baby, it’s a pity that I can’t see you growing up. It’s my father who is sorry for you. When the umbrella gave me an olive branch, I thought my lifelong ambition could be realized, but I didn’t expect things to fall into a doom and gloom. It is about to become a **** on earth, and everyone will be worse off than dead, the only thing I can do is to let you die without pain, and then I will live to face the sins I have committed.”
After a while, Lu Tingliu shook the thin piece of paper: “No more.”
Chu Xian pondered for a moment and said, “It should be related to the background setting of this dungeon. The side quests are estimated to be exploring the painful past and the truth about the appearance of monsters.”
Wang Yuanwen sneered: “Isn’t this the kind of routine that is often played in third-rate movies? For example, there is a biological experiment company under the umbrella of Qingyu, and the virus leaked in the laboratory, causing people in the whole city to be infected and turned into monsters , and the president of Galaxy Technology is one of the principals.”
Chu Xian said: “It is possible, but at present there is no sign that the day owl has infected the virus.”
Lu Tingliu touched the wound on the corner of his lips and nodded in agreement.
She doesn’t feel anything unusual now.
This time, Chu Xian followed the navigation route and drove smoothly all the way to the destination.
Xie Baoqing looked out the car window and muttered, “No one.”
No living, no dead, no players, no NPCs. If they hadn’t met Jiang Luo’s team, they would have thought that there were only five of them in the entire city.
Baihua Road Youth Hostel has a small storefront with dirty signs. You have to walk up the second floor through a narrow staircase between the two stores to see the glass door and the card punch.
After repeating the noon process, Chu Xian said: “Everyone first check whether there are any dead bodies or other abnormalities in the hostel, check carefully! Ten minutes, fast action, it will be dark soon. !”
The hostel has only four rooms in total, each room is not big, but each room has eight bunks, and the gap in between is so narrow that it is difficult to walk.
Lu Tingliu was in charge of checking Room 2. She flipped through the bed and opened the quilt, and a sour smell that had been pickled for years came out, causing Lu Tingliu’s pupils to tremble, unable to stabilize, and staggering. Take two steps back.
No, in addition to the sour smell, there is also a fishy smell.
Lu Tingliu vaguely saw a dark stain on the sheet, she held her breath and lifted the sheet, and saw a piece of rotting flesh about ten centimeters in length and width, a large The disgusting smell comes from it.
Lu Tingliu turned over all the beds, only this one had something. She took the garbage plastic bag in the corner, packed it, and took it outside for Chu Xian to see.
Chu Xian said: “Throw it out.”
Then he told others to check all the beds, behind the curtains, and the ceiling too. Xie Baoqing found two, Wang Yuanwen found one, Qin Zhenyun found two and threw them all out.
Chu Xian found a chain from the tool room of the hostel, locked the glass door, and then pulled two sheets to cover the door tightly. At the same time, he also took out two hammers and gave them to Qin Zhenyun and Wang Yuanwen, so that they could keep them handy when they went to bed at night for self-defense.
It was completely dark outside.
“ding—”
“There are 13 hours until the next check-in time and location refresh.”
Turn on your phone and start the countdown progress bar.
The hostel has a small restaurant with five dinners and five breakfasts. Water, snacks, and fruits are also available, which can be said to be nutritious.
Several people ate in silence, listening to the roars and knocking on the door, the newcomers – except Lu Tingliu – couldn’t eat.
It was a good night.
But this night, no one really dared to sleep peacefully.
At seven o’clock in the morning, the Lu Tingliu team refreshed the new sign-in place in the game. The audience who was going to work outside the game got up and watched the live broadcast, and couldn’t help but sighed: “Compared with other teams, the life and death are exciting, Teacher Chu Leading the team is too stable…and too boring!”
In the next two days, they followed the steps, waited for the refresh, went on their way, checked carefully, and had enough to eat and drink. Of course, the difficulty of the game is indeed gradually increasing, giving them less and less time to rush, and more and more locations are refreshed every day, so they can only run around and check in.
The strange thing is that I haven’t met another team in the past two days.
In the evening of the third day, they ran wildly in an Internet cafe to check in at the card point, and then refreshed the waiting time for the next check-in.
Seven hours later.
It is zero.
For the first time in three days, they need to go out at night.
As soon as Wang Yuanwen thought of these beast-like voices he heard after dark, his face was pale, and he looked at Chu Xian weakly: “What should we do?”
Chu Xian said slowly: “What should I do? Eat and drink well, cheer up, and prepare to fight!”
Wang Yuanwen felt his legs shaking.
He turned around to ask for some comfort, but saw Lu Tingliu, who was also a newcomer, was fiddling with the computer to try to turn it on, and lamented: “Can’t turn it on… It’s so boring, I want to surf the Internet!!”
Qin Zhenyun is as steady as Mount Tai, showing the bearing that a middle-aged and elderly person who has seen the world should have.
Only looking at Xie Baoqing, who was obviously frightened and disturbed, Wang Yuanwen was a little comforted – it turned out that he was not the only one so cowardly.
Lu Tingliu randomly pressed the keyboard, apparently staring at the dark computer in a daze, but actually looking at the B-level side quest. There has been no progress.
She didn’t know how many times she flipped through the information saved in the side quest panel.
—
B-level side quests
Name: The file suppressed by the consecration spell
Items: photo x 2, signature x 1, sign x 1.
Progress: 0%
Note: This side quest cannot be shared with others, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences.
—
Among the items, one photo is a panoramic view of a mountain with a temple; the other is a dark well. In the past two days, they had walked through the entire Rotten Tiger City from south to north, but Lu Tingliu had never seen this mountain temple.
Chu Xian suddenly said: “I found two decks of playing cards, the night is long, let’s relax?”
Wang Yuanwen said speechlessly: “How can I be in the mood-”
“Great!” Lu Tingliu ran over, “I’m bored to death.”
Chu Xian glanced at Wang Yuanwen and said, “Aren’t you going to play? That happens to be the four of us, let’s play with eggs!”
Played for forty minutes.
Chu Xian looked at several people: “Do you want to go to bed? I can wake you up half an hour earlier.”
Although he asked this question, he knew in his heart that no one would be able to sleep when he thought about what he was about to face.
Lu Tingliu threw down the cards, yawned and said, “I’m going to sleep, please call me an hour earlier.”
Chu Xian said: “Okay, let’s play with the fat man.”
Lu Tingliu lay down on the sofa, really closed her eyes and took a nap, and quickly fell asleep.
The ability to take a deep nap and restore energy anytime and anywhere.
At eleven o’clock, Chu Xian woke Lu Tingliu up on time.
“Wait a minute,” he said, “this one is estimated to be finished in ten minutes. After that, let’s divide the weapons. Let me tell you a few words.”
In the past few days, they have traveled a lot and collected a lot of things that may be useful. When checking in at a small clinic in a residential area, almost the entire clinic was raided, and everyone was carrying a large travel bag containing a hammer, chainsaw, kitchen knife, alcohol bandages, aspirin.
“Baoqing and Qin brother use a hammer,” Chu Xian began to distribute, “if you encounter a corpse in the night and smash it on the head, don’t be mentally burdened, just shake it up and do it! Fatty uses a chainsaw, Hold on tight, don’t float away. Tingliu still uses a kitchen knife, your psychological quality is fine, but be careful, don’t open the card as soon as you come up. Others too, call me beforehand, and I will try to save you as much as possible. ”
Qin Zhenyun asked: “Is it bad to open the card?”
Chu Xian said: “You may have seen Lu Tingliu’s performance that time and thought it was nothing wrong, but in fact, many people will not use the card ability when opening a card for the first time. I have brought a newcomer before. The card is capable of manipulating thunder and lightning. The first time I opened the card, I hacked myself… Do you understand? And the follow-up usually comes with certain side effects, such as prostration. What do you do here? So you all look at your basic cards and consider them based on your actual situation.”
After speaking, Chu Xian stood up, packed his bag, and opened the curtains to look out.
Then he spent twenty minutes explaining that their main task was to get in the car as soon as possible after going out, and another twenty minutes to mentally build the battle for several newcomers.
Zero arrives.
“ding—”
“Check-in location: Yuehu Park Xixili restaurant; check-in time: 1:00.”
Moon Lake?
Lu Tingliu looked at these two words, thought about it, and recalled the two photos in the side quest. There is a plaque in the mountain temple. Originally, Lu Tingliu couldn’t see the words on the plaque, but now it looks more like the word “Moon Lake”.
