As time passed by, the hustle and bustle outside came in from far away, making Yi Xuan a little irritable. At this moment, he was sitting quietly in the shadow of the basement. In order not to expose his figure, he had already I was motionless for ten minutes. The result of sitting in the lobby for an afternoon is that Yi Xuan basically grasps the specific dynamics of everyone. Most people's actions are in the lobby, but there is one exception, that is, the chef of this hotel, every hour, The fat chef would come out of the back kitchen and then enter the basement to get the ingredients. Although the chef was not too satisfied with him, this was his first opportunity, so Yi Xuan started hunting without picking it up.
It was very silent in the dark. Yi Xuan's eyes were always fixed at the entrance of the basement, waiting quietly. In such a wait, it seemed that time passed longer, but fortunately, Yi Xuan's patience was relatively good. .
Moreover, Yi Xuan is currently interested in the ability to study NPCs. Of course, his research is not without purpose. Judging from the skills of the farmer NPC before, NPCs in this world have various abilities. Yi Xuan thinks From these NPCs, you may be able to find something interesting and help you finally win the final trial after a year.
The effort paid off. Just when Yi Xuan was squatting with sore feet, finally, a heavy footstep came from the entrance of the basement, and then a chubby figure appeared on the basement stairs, blocking it. With the sunlight coming in from the outside, the chef walked to the door of the basement, picked up the oil lamp that was not burning vigorously at the door, and walked towards the food inside step by step.
In the light of the oil lamp, Yi Xuan could clearly see that the huge black shadow that was walking in front of him was the chef of the previous hotel. The image of this chef is very classic. It is 1.78 meters high and looks full. There are more than two hundred catties, and the meat is mainly accumulated in the belly, making him look like a big meat top. The chef hat is worn on his head crookedly. The head and neck underneath have been trained because of the accumulation of meat. One body is commonly known as a big head and a thick neck.
Although this hotel is not big, the ingredients are very well prepared. Rows of shelves are filled with flour, grains, vegetables, fruits, etc. Outside these shelves are rows of wine in oak barrels. A row of smoked meats such as ham and bacon hung above the barrel, and the place where Yi Xuan squatted at this time was in the shadow formed by the rows of bacon. The chef came with his stout legs. In front of Yi Xuan, he put his hand on the wooden barrel on the side of the oil lamp house and reached for a piece of cured ham.
Obviously, he didn’t notice Yi Xuan who was hiding underneath. Yi Xuan saw that it was a good opportunity and stood up suddenly. The two happened to come face to face. Before the chef could respond, Yi Xuan had already grabbed it. The chef's forehead, using his long-prepared skills, replaced his mind.
There was a surprised expression on the chef’s face, but the next moment he recovered his calmness. The chef raised his hand and looked at his new body. The look in his eyes was no longer the same as the dull look just now, although he was fat. , But the chef's actions are still agile, at least better than the farmers just now.
Since it was a research, Yi Xuan first checked the chef's attributes and abilities, and found that the chef, like the previous farmer, was very weak in terms of combat effectiveness, but had a lot of other skills.
Unlike the farmer, the chef’s strongest skill is his cooking skills, which means he can cook a variety of ingredients. Probably the ones sold in this hotel.
Yi Xuan raised his head and looked at the shelf in front of him. The ingredients that seemed ordinary and unremarkable just now became alive in his eyes, and a strong feeling of wanting to cook in his heart, if you use a feeling To describe it, it's like playing a simple 3D game. Items that could not be touched as the background of the game seem to be unlocked suddenly. Originally, Yi Xuan didn't have any interest in these ingredients, but now they can't ignore their existence.
Yi Xuanxin said that, anyway, there is not much food left in the backpack. I just took this opportunity to find some welfare for myself. Thinking of this, Yi Xuan first took an apple and took a bite. This is what Yi Xuan likes very much. I haven’t enjoyed the fruit for a long time since I entered the game. While eating apples, Yi Xuan began to use other ingredients. At the same time, related recipes appeared in his heart. For example, when Yi Xuan picked up a bag of flour, he would immediately I thought that if you use it to make cakes, you need to use whipped cream, if you make muffins, you need chocolate. This awareness is natural and not abrupt at all, so that it has been related before Yi Xuan realized it. The ingredients are taken out.
Yi Xuan picked it up more and more vigorously, and soon his hands were filled. The chef was very fat, and he took a lot of things, and immediately felt that the action was not very convenient. Yi Xuan simply went up and sent it off first, and then came again. Once, I put all the things I wanted to take in the kitchen, and then I started kneading, seasoning, and chopping stuffing happily.
Because this game is set in Western Europe, although Yi Xuan wanted to make some oriental snacks such as dumplings, but didn’t know the steps, he had to make it according to the food that the chef could make. Click on the chef’s cooking skills Yi Xuan I found that there are a lot of foods that can be made, such as strawberry cake, apple pie, chocolate muffin, and Yi Xuan filled a pitcher of wine with a hip flask. Although I don’t like to drink it, it seems that there is only one kind of drink in the world. NS.
Yi Xuan was busy, and the innkeeper suddenly walked in. Yi Xuan was taken aback. Then he thought that the boss would enter the kitchen for inspections every once in a while, and occasionally ranted loudly. It seemed that it was just a system setting. , But don't care too much.
Sure enough, the boss looked around and said loudly, akimbo, "I said you still stand less and do more work. You look at the guests outside and are waiting anxiously. I really don’t know why I hired him. you."
The boss had a stern tone and complained a lot, but Yi Xuan was still busy with himself, without raising his eyelids, the boss gave up after a while and turned around and went back to the lobby.
Yi Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to make, and almost made all the food styles that can be made in the chef skill list. Anyway, there are free raw materials, so you don’t need to use it for nothing, plus the jugs and fruits installed before. Yi Xuan’s today’s The harvest is very rich.
After all, this chef is just a popular NPC, the recipes unlocked in the list are limited, and the cooking in the game is not the same as in reality, so it won’t be long before Yi Xuan has nothing to cook, so he found a basket general The food was packed inside, and the chef’s apron was put on it, and then he carried him to the room on the second floor.
When I came to the room where the farmer was killed before, Yi Xuan put the food on the ground next to the table, so as to prevent the food from being knocked over in case of a fight, although Yi Xuan still has a good idea of killing the chef. .
In this way, I checked the chef's function panel again and made sure that there was nothing he was interested in. Yi Xuan withdrew from the chef's body. In fact, with his current ability, controlling an NPC for three or four hours is nothing. The question, but since he has found out the chef's ability, there is no need to waste time and continue to wait. Besides, Yi Xuan will continue to study the next NPC.
There was a flash of golden light, and Yi Xuan retreated from the chef's body. The moment the two separated, the chef suddenly recovered from the occupied state, froze for a moment, and immediately turned and attacked Yi Xuan.
But fortunately, with the last experience, Yi Xuan can say that he was prepared. After experiencing the first unprovoked murder, he seemed to be completely mentally burdened. Yi Xuan killed the chef in twos or twos.
Yi Xuan was stunned when he dragged the chef's corpse towards the bottom of the bed. When he opened the sheets, Yi Xuan was stunned. He originally thought that the farmer’s corpse would be refreshed by the system. Lie inside with his head tilted.
Yi Xuan scratched his head. It seemed a bit troublesome if he didn't refresh his heart. This problem seemed to be a trivial matter, but Yi Xuan instinctively felt that something was wrong. The corpses of monsters in the game would usually be refreshed soon. It has been confirmed. The player's corpse will also be refreshed when the player is reborn. However, Yi Xuan has not confirmed the NPC's corpse, but when he wants to come, it will definitely be refreshed. He still remembers that the old man in the white suit told them when he didn’t enter the game that he would be killed after death. Refresh it
But at this moment, seeing the corpse that should have disappeared, but still lying there, making Yi Xuan feel a little uneasy, what will happen if he keeps it here? Rotten like in reality? Still keep this form like a mummy. And if the corpse is not refreshed, isn't it evidence of his crime.
But then I thought about it. Anyway, there are so many rooms on the second floor. It's a big deal for me to live in another room. Yi Xuan wanted to open it soon. Anyway, it was just an NPC with a popular face. After making up his mind, Yi Xuan crawled in and pushed the farmer’s corpse inside. This bed is the size of a double bed, so it’s more than enough to accommodate two people under the bed, the chef’s. The corpse was not light, Yi Xuan took a lot of effort to stuff it in, and finally got everything done. Yi Xuan clapped his hands and decided to take a good rest.
But in this room it is still free. Yi Xuan picked up the food basket that was just put down, went out and found an empty room, put the extra items in the food basket into the backpack first, and then put the rest of the food in the bag. On the sheets, the things made on these are basically what I like to eat. At least they are more delicious than those hard bread. Yi Xuan has been eating and sleeping in the past two days. This time I finally enjoyed it, so I lay down. Lying on the bed, while eating sweet pastries, he wondered which NPC's body he would occupy tomorrow. Because of the problems with the two corpses, Yi Xuan wanted to see if he could directly subdue the NPC tomorrow, such as knocking out. See if he still attacked himself after waking up, so he planned to fall asleep without knowing it.
Because in the place where the players gather, Yi Xuan didn’t dare to fall asleep too badly when he was sleeping. He woke up in a dazed dream to see if there were no other people in the room. Then he felt relieved and lay down for a while. , Yi Xuan came to the room where the corpses were hidden, and suddenly opened the sheets. Yi Xuan wished to see the empty under the bed, but the truth is that the two corpses still haven’t disappeared, and after such a short time, the faintness has already begun to spread With a faint smell, Yi Xuan was a little dazed now, watching the corpse really decay in the end, but this is a game, the two corpses are just a bunch of codes, do you want to be so serious
Things were a little bit beyond his expectations, and they were moving in a direction he couldn't understand. If they don't refresh, will new NPCs appear? Yi Xuan reluctantly re-covered the sheets and walked downstairs with some hesitation. He needed to confirm some things as soon as possible.
The lobby is still noisy. There is no lack of business because there is no chef’s labor. The guests who are drinking are talking loudly as before. No one notices a person who hides himself under the cloak. The hotel waitress is still standing behind the bar. , Looking at the people around him with a smile, Yi Xuan swept around, and unexpectedly found that the owner of the hotel was missing, shouldn’t be, after yesterday’s observation, Yi Xuan was very sure that the boss did not have any other procedures and scope of activities. Just delineated within the hotel, the counter, kitchen and hotel lobby make him an eternal place of activity.
Yi Xuan hurried to the kitchen to check, but he was not there. Yi Xuan was shocked. It was broken. Isn't it the reporter who went? I looked around and finally found him at the door. The innkeeper looked around outside the door with a big golden exclamation mark on his head. Yi Xuan knew that this meant that he had a task, and of course this was a task. It was only for the player, but Yi Xuan still pretended to walk over without incident. He felt that he should be able to hear something from the opponent.
"Hey, did you see the chef in our hotel?" The innkeeper asked towards Yi Xuan, "I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know where he went."
Yi Xuan was shocked when he heard this. He always felt that the death of such a popular-faced NPC would not attract the attention of others, and shouldn't the system be refreshed immediately after the death of the NPC to maintain the normal operation of the system
Yi Xuan just thought about the possibility of NPCs not being refreshed, but once this kind of thing becomes a reality, it seems that there is a feeling of causing a catastrophe. Yi Xuan once again visited the kitchen and the basement to make sure that there is no chef. The vague worries in my heart just got worse.
The current situation is that the NPC has not been refreshed after death, and the corpse upstairs has not disappeared, and the innkeeper has another task. Obviously the chef’s permanent death has become a foregone conclusion. Combining the above points, it is easy to Xuan got two possibilities. First, not all NPCs are refreshed after death. The NPCs that can be refreshed should be mission NPCs or monsters with death missions themselves. Like the chef, there may not be a refresh setting in the code itself.
The second possibility, and the one Yi Xuan is most unwilling to see, is that if an NPC kills an NPC, it will cause the NPC to die permanently. And at the same time, some tasks will be derived to promote the progress of the game. Although this is his most breakthrough discovery since entering the game, it also means that he may also embark on the path of a chef. If this is the setting, what if other NPCs kill him? Will it cause permanent death? Yi Xuan still prefers to believe that these NPCs do not have settings to refresh themselves.
But these are not the most pressing questions before Yi Xuan. He is hesitating in his heart, whether to stay and wait for the cat's fish, or to change to a hotel
Calling up his panel, Yi Xuan found that the kill value that he had already cleaned had increased by five points. The level of these NPCs was not high, so the killing value was relatively low. Yi Xuan hurriedly used the reward points to clean it. His heart became a little more stable.
Considering his neutral status, Yi Xuan feels that it is not a wise choice to find another hotel on the street. If the body of an NPC is occupied by a replay of the old technique, another task may be triggered. Anyway, no one doubts himself now. , The best choice is to stay here.
But if you stay here, the task of the innkeeper will be in the way now. If any player accepts the task of finding the chef, it doesn’t need to be much. As long as you walk around in the inn, you will easily find the corpse upstairs. It is also easy to find that Huang Ming gets himself. Players are not like NPCs. They are not controlled by the system and do not have so many rules. When you see yourself, you are likely to launch an attack. At that time, it will be like stabbing a hornet's nest. The trouble will be serious. No, you have to think of something.
"Hey, I know where the chef is." Yi Xuan couldn't find any signs of being able to take the task, so he stepped forward and said to the boss.
But the boss only glanced at Yi Xuan, and then continued to look anxiously at the road ahead. Treat Yi Xuan directly as air. Obviously, his task is only given to those players. For an NPC like him, there is no way to accept the task.
Damn, this won't work. I couldn't use the ability of mind replacement in such a large crowd, Yi Xuan anxiously inspected the hotel, his eyes suddenly fell on the waitress. He remembered seeing the waitress talking to the boss, maybe he could take advantage of the relationship between the NPCs. According to his previous observations, she would go into the kitchen to fetch food every half an hour, but he looked at the location of the kitchen, Yi Xuan. But it’s a bit difficult. The kitchen door is a half free door, which looks pretty, and it’s easy to get in and out with things, but the upper half is open. It’s easy to be spotted if you lie inside, even if the waitress sees that she doesn’t respond. It is also a problem if the mind is seen by outsiders when the mind is replaced.
How can I hide my figure? Yi Xuan returned to the basement of the hotel again. This was the only place that players would not frequent and the only place that was temporarily safe. He recalled all the skills and abilities he possessed, and wanted to find something to solve the dilemma in front of him. .
