To be honest, it's not uncommon for Zhang Daoan to act in a sarcastic manner. He sometimes spoke to Nie Shuangshuang like this before.
Nie Shuangshuang is a very thick-skinned person. Most of the time, she can't even tell that she is being manipulated. She just thinks that this big brother's tone is a bit strange, and wonders if he has any new ideas.
But she is a careless person, while Qi Chanyang is a very thoughtful person!
Besides, what Zhang Daoan said was very targeted. Others were confused, but Qi Chanyang understood it quickly.
Are you disturbing someone's date
Qi Chanyang was very conscious: "I'll treat you two to a meal after this book is published!"
Although having a meal together is nothing considering the wealth of Jie Fangcheng and his partner, it is still an apology.
Zhang Daoan said to him calmly, "Okay. I hope we can have a good meal when we go out, and there won't be any sudden invitations."
It's over! It seems that Brother Zhang's resentment has not subsided at all!
Qi Chanyang looked up at the sky in silence with tears streaming down his face.
Jie Fangcheng had already followed another player out of the utility room.
The wax museum is about 200 square meters and looks like a remodeled old house. The walls are covered with uneven gray-white mud and are not painted. The triangular roof is very high, but perhaps because there is a stove burning in the house all year round, a layer of black oil is attached to the beams, which looks sticky and makes people feel uncomfortable.
The utility room and staff accommodation rooms are on the second floor. Looking down from the second floor, the first floor is filled with fat yellow wax figures.
The wax figures include men and women, old and young, all lifelike, standing there quietly, and each face looks exceptionally peaceful.
It was just as the sun was setting, and golden-red light filtered through the cramped windows, shining on some of the wax figures, as if they were splashed with blood.
This wax museum looks very strange, but at this moment, tourists are walking in from the door.
Of the five players including Qi Chanyang, two were "welcoming new members" in the utility room on the second floor, and the remaining three players were introducing the wax museum to tourists.
"The Real Wax Museum was founded 20 years ago. During these 20 years, the wax museum has been known for creating high-quality wax figures. Whether you buy them as gifts for relatives and friends or for your own collection, they are of extraordinary value."
The eleven people who came were also a bit strange. Five of them seemed to be together, and the other six were together.
After taking a look, Jie Fangcheng couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh".
He did not lower his voice on purpose, and everyone who was visiting and listening to the lecture on the first floor looked up.
So green!
The three players were fine. When Qi Chanyang said that he wanted to call for help, although he did not specifically say who he was calling for, everyone at least had an outstanding candidate in mind.
At this moment, the fantasy came true and the expressions of the three people relaxed instantly.
Of the remaining eleven tourists, six were surprised.
But this surprise seemed not only because of Jie Fangcheng's green clothes, but there seemed to be some other reason.
The six people looked at each other and soon reached a consensus. They no longer looked at Jie Fangcheng, but concentrated on exploring the environment of the wax museum.
As for the remaining five tourists in the group...
"Damn! Green Light Boss?" someone blurted out.
The three players on the first floor immediately looked at him with shocked expressions.
Knowing Jie Fangcheng's green, these five "tourist NPCs" in front of me... are they also players
Several people were staring at each other on the first floor. Zhang Daoan also followed them out and happened to see this scene.
"Are the five below also players?" he asked.
"Yeah." Jie Fangcheng nodded.
Qi Chanyang's expression changed when he heard this.
"Fighting the copy..."
In a normal copy, after players enter together, the clearance conditions for each player are the same.
But there are very few copies where players are automatically divided into two groups when they enter.
In this case, this copy is most likely a counter-copy, and the conditions for passing the two groups of players are completely different or even contradictory, which can be said to be a matter of either you or me.
The difficulty of the national copy has been reduced, so how could the confrontation copy appear
Qi Chanyang frowned.
Zhang Daoan looked downstairs quietly and then looked away after a while.
Jie Fangcheng nudged him with his elbow: "Did you find anything?"
Zhang Daoan nodded: "I guess so, but I'm not sure yet."
After that, he looked at Qi Chanyang: "What are your conditions for passing the level?"
Qi Chanyang quickly responded: "Protect the wax figures and create five new wax figures."
Originally there were six of them, and there was still one left. Now there are exactly five of them, one for each of them.
But speaking of which, there are also five players over there...
Qi Chanyang thought about it, and Zhang Daoan frowned slightly after listening: "Are you sure?"
"Ah?" Qi Chanyang hurriedly opened the system prompt and carefully read the system message again.
[Instance: Wax Museum of Memories (Level 2)]
[Introduction: Hello! New employees of the wax museum! Please take your employee handbook, read the manual carefully, and learn the wax figure making techniques. Although there are so many works of art in the wax museum, the ones you make yourself are the best! ]
[Content: In the wax museum, wax figures are life! It is the responsibility of every employee to protect them, but if you only protect them without innovation, you are not a qualified employee! Please pay attention! Cherish every opportunity. You still need to make 5 wax figures to qualify!]
[Clearance conditions: Perfect clearance. ]
[No one has ever cleared this instance, the system will give you a new hint.]
[Hint: What is the truth about the wax museum? Do you care? ]
After Qi Chanyang finished reading it, he went over it again in his mind.
If their condition for passing the level is to take good care of each wax figure, what is the condition for the other player to pass the level? Destroy the wax figures
What exactly is the “truth about the wax museum” that the system prompts
There are still too few clues!
On the first floor, six NPCs seemed to be here to hunt for treasure. After entering the wax museum, they looked left and right, not caring what others were doing, and started talking to themselves.
“… This feels better than the last one. It’s so real.”
"Touch this one, this one looks more like it."
Their indifference to others makes people feel very disconnected.
These six NPCs were obviously not very strong, and even Qi Chanyang's early warning skills didn't sound.
But in such a scary wax museum, they are free and relaxed, and everyone is looking for something they like to do. The Courageous Ones is really like the protagonist in some classic horror movies who likes to act alone even though he is in a haunted house and is courting death.
As for the five players on the first floor... misery was written all over their faces.
In the confrontation copy, there is such a powerful existence on the other side, can they still get anything from the other side
But even without asking, all five players knew that the other party’s conditions for passing the level were probably something like “protecting the wax museum”.
Their conditions for passing the level are: find out the truth about the wax museum and burn it down.
You can tell at first glance that there is a conflict!
The five people gathered together for a while before finally putting forward a representative.
This represented a bitter look on his face. After going upstairs to meet Fang Cheng, he forced a smile.
"Hello, sir. The five of us know we are no match for you, but we just want to ask if there is a possibility... that you could show some mercy."
As he spoke, the representative very readily took out a dozen props from his backpack, all of which were what the five of them had just put together.
The national copy was randomly entered into the second-level copy. The strength of these five players was quite average, just barely out of the category of "new players".
But just looking at the props they took out, the average cost per person is basically around two million.
Two million.
Take Qi Chanyang for example. If he had not downloaded the copy of [Digital Cruise] together, the props and points he had would total less than one million points. Two million for each person, this is really emptying the family's savings in exchange for a way of making a living, which is very sincere.
There is no way. Now everyone knows that Ronghua is not what it used to be. You can't get people to help you just by saying a few nice words.
Now you have to pay.
But as far as this copy is concerned, even if you give all your belongings to the other party, it is unlikely that the other party will agree.
There was really no other way. Jie Fangcheng was so terrifying that he was beyond the scope of ordinary players. Did a group of level 2 players want to fight against others without knowing whether to live or die? Wasn't this just brain damage
The person who came spoke in such a humble tone that Jie Fangcheng felt a little embarrassed.
He let out an "ah" and reflexively looked at Zhang Daoan who was standing beside him.
Qi Chanyang keenly felt that the resentment around Brother Zhang seemed to have dissipated.
But these five players really have no other options. The dungeon is a life-and-death struggle. Even if Brother Zhang is there, there is nothing they can do...
At this time, Zhang Daoan said: "I'll go and try."
The player representative who came finally turned his attention to him.
Who is this person
Obviously, not every player is keen on watching spectators. The representative who came here did not recognize that this person is one of the three most popular and awesome players on the forum.
Although he couldn't recognize him, seeing that Jie Fangcheng looked trusting, he was willing to wait by the side.
Zhang Daoan went down from the second floor and walked straight to a tourist NPC.
He looks gentle and refined. People who don't know him would think that he is an intellectual who is easy to get along with and very cultured. As long as he is willing, he can easily make people let down their guard.
Because the other NPCs were chattering about everything, and seemed to be talking about having dinner together tomorrow or something like that. They looked like six students who came together to play. In such a noisy environment, the players on the second floor couldn't hear what Zhang Daoan was saying to the NPC.
Not long after, Zhang Daoan came back.
"Boss, have you found anything?" the representative asked hurriedly.
Zhang Daoan just looked at Qi Chanyang again: "Is your clearance condition really 'Protect the wax figure and create a new wax figure'?"
Qi Chanyang didn't know why he asked that. For a moment, he wondered if there was something wrong with his panel, and hurriedly looked at another player next to him.
The player also nodded and testified: "Yes!"
Zhang Daoan thought for a moment, then simply took out a pen and paper from his bag and handed them to Qi Chanyang.
"Copy me every word of the system prompt you received."
Is this... really a problem
Qi Chanyang didn't understand why, but he could only do as he was told and copied the instructions without much effort.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Daoan gave the representatives a set of copying tools.
"You can copy it too."
Two pieces of paper for copying as punishment were placed on the wall, and I started writing against the wall.
Jie Fangcheng was a little curious for a moment: "What's going on?"
Zhang Daoan looked at the six NPCs on the first floor.
"They're playing a game, I guess."
— “I’m playing a game that I can save, revive, and start over.”
