The waiter led Xia Yi back for a while, until he stopped in a certain direction, and then said: "Go down this staircase, and you will find the third-floor hall of the ship."

Xia Yihui nodded, and after the waiter turned to leave, he turned his body slightly and looked down through the stairs.

After Joe paused for a while, he was speechless inwardly: "As expected of a luxury cruise ship, the levels are really clearly divided."

The waiter led him along a small path. Walking down the stairs did not reach the center of the hall, and the exit was in a rather hidden area. Even so, the internal structure of the hall was still very clear.

In the center of the hall is a string orchestra. Several string players are standing or sitting, playing wonderful movements. The interior decoration of the hall is not as luxurious as the fourth floor, and more structures adopt a friendly atmosphere, and the atmosphere is much hotter than the fourth floor.

It is obvious that there are mixed fish and dragons on this floor, there are nobles and commoners, there are players and NPCs, just standing here for a short while, there are a few noble-looking old gentlemen walking down the stairs beside them.

Xia Yihui mixed in with the group of people, walked around a staircase and reached the third floor of the ship. As soon as he entered the hall, he immediately felt that something was not quite right.

There were about 300 people in the entire hall, and at a glance, no one wore a badge on their chest. In other words, none of the people in the hall were gamers.

... Didn't you say that the third floor is the game area

Xia Yihui frowned, even if there were fewer players in the joker card, it would not be impossible to see none of them. Isn't this the game location

Just thinking like this, suddenly, there was a loud noise from the main entrance of the hall, and an Asian man reached in from the outside, as if someone grabbed him and pulled him outward, he held the doorknob tightly and did not let go.

The man was in a state of embarrassment, with a lot of blood on his clothes, and a badge pinned to his chest. Even though the edge of the badge had been stained dark red with blood, the stain could not cover up the gleaming Arabic numeral '12' on the badge.

The man tried his best to get in the door, but the hands outside the door were very strong, neither of them wanted to let go, so they just stood deadlocked at the door.

As if he was about to lose his hold, the player stretched out his hand into the hall with a painful expression, and shouted at the waiter by the door: "I want to apply for player protection! You see, there is a civilian player behind me attacking me!"

The waiter smiled, glanced at the man, and spoke in a calm tone, "Sir, only the inside of the ballroom has protection measures, please be sure to step in with both feet."

"Damn it! Even if I don't play this joke card, I can't give you the red crystal to this white pig!" As if he couldn't hold it anymore, the man paled and roared behind him, his body turned into a white light, and in a blink of an eye Disappeared in place.

Due to inertia, the people outside the door didn't react in a hurry. They opened the door more than half with their strength, and rushed in staggeringly, almost falling to the ground.

"Fuck! Let him go!"

The white player who came in was tall and strong, and the muscles on the next door were bulging, and he looked very powerful. The servant on his body looks like a groom and a craftsman. In short, it looks very inferior. Just like what the Asian players said before, this person should be a commoner in the game.

Of note is the number '55' written on his additional badge on his chest.

This was a huge sum, if it was placed on Xia Yihui, he would have to win five games to earn so much red crystals, and he had to win consecutively, with no losing rounds in between.

Thinking of this, Xia Yihui's eyes on the white players suddenly became more focused.

On the other side, the white player hammered the ground angrily, got up and patted the ashes on his body, and raised his eyes to see Xia Yihui who was staring at him intently.

The latter was taken aback, and was about to turn his gaze away, but saw the Caucasian player looking down his collar very clearly. When he saw the number 5 on the badge, he curled his lips disinterestedly, and did it to Xia With a mouth shape, he shook his head in disgust and backed out.

The other party was not close, and he was still speaking in an incomprehensible language. Logically speaking, Xia Yi should not be able to hear his words. But the translator was so conscientious that it could even translate such a small voice. What the man said was—

"Vegetable chicken."

Xia Yihui: "..." Was he disliked because of too few red crystals

The barrage in the live broadcast room was filled with indignation, urging Xia Yihui to go straight up and fight the white players.

Xia Yihui is not an idiot. The later in the game, the more difficult it is for the players to deal with. He will not be foolish enough to rush around to make enemies with people because of such a small matter. The most important thing so far is to find a partner first.

Thinking of this, he glanced around, feeling a little strange in his heart, and only after thinking for a long time did he suddenly realize.

The reason for the weirdness is that the room is full of npcs!

These npcs are just too cold. When you see two people fighting in your life, you usually either go up to fight or avoid it from a distance, or watch around, and you will give a little reaction no matter what. But for the npcs in front of him, Xia Yi was sure that they saw the players arguing, but they just glanced at them casually, then turned their heads and continued to do their own things.

Of course, if the two of them entered the hall completely, then the npc might be another countermeasure.

Xia Yihui walked in front of the hall door, holding the doorknob in his hand.

The waiter next to him saw him standing still, so he smiled and said: "Sir, there are many rude civilians on the deck outside, but you don't have to worry. If you encounter danger, run back to the banquet hall immediately, and we will definitely provide you with a comprehensive solution." Bless."

"Okay, thank you." Xia Yihui nodded slightly and pushed open the front door.

The sky had just dawned, and the air outside was much fresher. Of course, the temperature was also much lower.

Logically speaking, there should be very few npcs on the deck at this point in time, but in this puppet ball ghost card, it is obvious that common sense is used to violate it.

There are quite a few people standing on the deck, the number is even several times that of the hall. Among them, the number of civilians and nobles is about half. At a glance, only a very small number of people wear badges on their chests, and most of them are real NPCs.

The situation on the entire deck looked very much like a school sports meeting. Groups of people gathered in different places, watching the players or NPCs in the game inhumanely, pointing and commenting from time to time.

Xia Yihui took two steps forward, and there were discussions from NPCs in the nearest encirclement.

"In my opinion, the game is going to fail, and that person's partner is really holding back."

"Hey, it's strange to say that when two people play games together, one of them will always be weaker."

"No way, the motor nerves of some people are really bad."

Hearing these words from the NPC, Xia Yi stood on tiptoe and glanced into the encirclement. After seeing the situation inside, he was suddenly a little surprised.

There are two NPCs standing on one left and one on the right. They are pulling thick hemp ropes and waving them in the air. The speed is fast and slow, without any rules.

There were two players crowded on the right side of the hemp rope, and one of the taller players reacted quickly. When he saw that the speed of the rope slowed down, he rushed over and jumped up to the rhythm. Perhaps it was because of Ka's excellent rhythm, he did not break the rope after several rounds of jumping.

"Get out of here!" The player looked ferocious and yelled at the partner who was still hesitating.

The latter wanted to rush in several times, but for some unknown reason, he stopped again, looking troubled.

The people in the outer circle who watched shook their heads and sighed again and again, their expressions were full of pity.

Xia Yi turned his head and glanced at the encirclement elsewhere. One side was playing rope skipping, and the other side was playing eagle catching chicks. Originally, he thought that the games on the deck were similar to the previous battle royale, but now it seems that there are more children's games that heal the wind.

"Ahhh!!!" There was no longer any time to delay, the player let out a desperate roar, and rushed into the rope with his eyes wide open.

The first few times followed the rhythm, but they could barely fool it. Who knew that the npc suddenly changed the speed of the rope, and the rope danced in the air without any rules, and was broken by the player who came in after a few times.

The hemp rope blew violently, and at the moment it hit the two players, Xia Yihui clearly heard the sound of a fracture.

... He decided to retract his preface. This is not a children's game to heal the wind, it is not an exaggeration to say it is a horror game. It's no wonder that the black player said that his partner died in the game. If all games have this level of danger, then the dead would not seem so strange.

"Are you going to quit the joke by yourself, or wait for me to kill you?" The strong player covered his face swollen by the rope wheel, with a gloomy expression on his face.

His partner was trembling all over, didn't dare to say a word at all, and disappeared into a white light.

The npc stopped spinning the rope, happily put away the five red crystals on the table beside him, and yelled at the encirclement: "Is there anyone here to play with the rope skipping, the price is fair, and you are innocent! I promise you will jump to the west!" "

Jumping up to the Western Paradise would be fine, Xia Yihui shook his head in a funny way, turned and left.

There are game locations everywhere on the deck. After closing his eyes for a while, he walked towards the encirclement with the largest number of people without hesitation, where the sound of gunfire was ringing out.

I don't know what game is playing inside. This encirclement is much denser than before. Xia Yihui couldn't squeeze in, but he can be sure that his partner is watching around this game. Logically speaking, that partner should also be able to perceive his presence.

"Why don't you come to see me? Is it because there are too many people to squeeze out?" Xia Yi asked himself in doubt.

At this moment, someone tapped him on the shoulder. Xia Yi was startled, and reflexively wanted to fight back, only a little reason left to stop him.

Behind him was Mei Yougan with a surprised expression on his face. He touched Xia Yihui's dark green cloak with his hands, and said in amazement, "I saw you from afar, and I almost thought I had misidentified you."

"Wrong person?" Xia Yihui glanced at the aristocratic clothes on him calmly, and joked, "I have such a handsome face, you can't recognize me if I change clothes?"

"Handsome people are always the same. Your face is definitely not as recognizable as me." Mei Yougan smiled and said, "What are you doing with these npcs? Our players have a VIP viewing area, let's go there together Let's see."

Xia Yihui said, "Are all the players gathered together?"

"Not all of them." Mei Yougan knew what Xia Yikui was wondering about, and he said as he walked, "Don't worry, no one has fought yet."

After going around for a half circle, I just arrived at the VIP area that Mei Yougan said.

It is said to be a VIP area, but in fact there are quite a lot of NPCs around the front, but at least it is better than the Crack Survival just now, at least this place is not crowded into honeycomb coal.

There were about a dozen players standing nearby, including a small group of four or five people. The leader was the white player who scolded him at the main entrance of the hall just now. At this time, the white players were concentrating on watching the game inside the encirclement, and did not notice Xia Yihui's arrival.

Except for the small group, the rest of the players stood apart in twos, maintaining a good distance, neither too alienated nor approached hastily.

You can't see the encirclement in this area, but it doesn't matter, Xia Yi didn't come here to watch the game.

His gaze scanned the dozen or so people around him, waiting for a strange feeling to appear in his heart.

Mei Yougan babbled at the side: "Have you ever seen bullet dodging in The Matrix? The rules of the game are like this. Players must stand in a small area drawn, and the npc will shoot the bullets. The game lasts for an hour. If you win, you will get 30 red crystals, and if you lose, you will deduct 5 red crystals. You cannot use skills, and as long as you are hit by a gun once, it will be judged as a game failure."

"This game is a test of people's reflexes. It should be a relatively difficult game for the whole ship, and the rewards are much more than other games. Few people can pass the level. Many people go up and come down within a few minutes. The people inside must be A player at the level of a god."

After a pause, he pouted towards the small group, "Look, those white people just want to recruit this great player, and they are waiting for the game to end."

Xia Yihui nodded, and answered the words with one heart and two minds, "Do you know who went in?"

Mei Youqian shook his head: "I don't know, but I heard that this buddy is very unlucky. Once the ghost card just landed in the game area, he was forced to play the game."

"At first everyone thought that he would lose the game after a while, but who knew that it had been almost an hour, and it was not over yet. There were more and more people watching. Tsk tsk, the boss is indeed a big boss! Dude, no matter how sad the start is, you can still rely on your strength to make a comeback... Well, by the way, brother, did you listen to me?"

Mei Yougan rubbed the back of his head, wondering if it was an illusion, he always felt that the noble young master in front of him seemed to be perfunctory to him.

Maybe it's because the clothes are too gorgeous, so I don't even look serious? Soon Mei Youqian denied this guess. It was obvious that Xia Yihui was not decent in what he wore, and he was not.

"Listen." Xia Yi replied, looking away from those players.

It seems that there is no partner in this group.

"I haven't seen your partner since just now. Are you as useless as me?" Mei Youqian continued to say, "My partner lost the handkerchief over there. I failed the game within two games. Now It depends on whether she can pass the level..."

"Hush." Xia Yihui suddenly stretched out his hand and made a gesture of silence, his eyes brightened.

Just now, his heart suddenly constricted. If there is no accident, this should be the telepathy that the black player said.

Xia Yihui subconsciously turned around and looked around. If the players around him didn't have a partner, then conservatively estimate that the partner may have just found the players' VIP area and is rushing over here.

There were cheers, and the discussions among the npcs suddenly increased.

Mei Youqian grabbed Xia Yihui's arm fiercely, and said excitedly: "The game is really won, let's see what that great god looks like. I really want to touch the great god twice, and then get a little bit of fairy spirit!"

Xia Yihui frowned. There were no new players coming behind him, but the throbbing in his heart couldn't be faked. Pausing for a few seconds, Xia Yihui was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head slowly, and looked towards the center of the encirclement in disbelief.

He suddenly had a bold idea: that boss in the game, could it be his long-lost partner

"Old dog Mei, the big guy you're talking about..." Xia Yi swallowed, still feeling a little uncertain.

Mei Yougan didn't hear Xia Yihui's words at all, he pressed the latter's shoulder excitedly, stood on tiptoe and looked inside, his heart was only filled with the five characters of the big brother's fairy spirit.

The crowd of NPCs in front slowly spread out to the side, revealing a small path, and excitedly circled around and pointed. A military uniform flashed through the gaps in the crowd, and it was obvious that the suspected partner was heading this way.

The white player group was obviously very pleasantly surprised. They were all ready to communicate actively, but they didn't expect that player to be so 'knowledgeable' and came over on their own initiative.

There were smiles on the faces of several people who were bound to win, but the faces of the nearby players were a little pale.

"That group is all civilian players. They can directly kill noble players to snatch the red crystals, and they can also snatch civilians' red crystals through player games. If the bosses really join, then we will be in danger." Mei Youqian He lowered his voice, "Let's run while they are still negotiating."

Said that Mei Yougan dragged Xia and was about to run away. The latter stood still and tried to explain, "Wait, I always feel that person is..."

"What is it?" Mei Yougan was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, "Run away, I don't care about you if you don't run away."

Even though he said this, Mei Yougan didn't really abandon Xia Yihui and run away, he just expressed his anxiety in another way.

"Look, that big guy is going to the white group!"

"They're getting close!"

"Let's run fast! The white groups have gone up to strike up a conversation."

Xia Yi couldn't see what was going on inside from this angle, so he was forced to listen to Mei Yougan's verbal broadcast, and asked, "What's the player's reaction?"

Mei Yougan shrugged and said, "If there is any reaction, you must stop and talk..."

In the middle of speaking, he suddenly swears, "Fuck! That boss walked around with a blank face! Hahahaha, is the boss so rigid? Huh? Why is he still walking towards us... Hey, wait, Why do I look familiar to that big guy?"

Mei Youqian froze on the spot, and murmured: "I remembered, this big guy is the one who chased ghosts around in the Ghost Street ghost card, called Zhang, Zhang, what is Zhang?"

"Pfft." Xia Yihui couldn't help laughing, thinking that it should be all right.

He raised his eyes and looked over, the crowd in front of him dispersed to the side, and the legendary "big brother player" finally revealed his true colors.

The man is slender and straight, wearing a military uniform. The military uniform is very similar to the military uniform of German officers during World War II. It looks full of abstinence, just like a walking clothes hanger.

As he got closer, a line of words slowly appeared on his head.

[Overlord of Xia Yihui]

Seeing this word, Mei Yougan almost fainted, he subconsciously turned his head to look at the top of Xia Yihui's head—

[Concubine Yu of Zhang Qingyu]

"..." Mei Yougan felt a little suffocated.

When the distance was only two or three meters away, Mei Yougan didn't dare to speak at all. He suppressed the twitching expression on his face, and even silently removed the hand that was on Xia Yihui's arm, and just watched quietly from the side.

The man walked up to him, and finally stood still, his eyes were as dark as ink, as if he had accumulated thousands of years of emotion, raging but extremely depressing.

The surrounding area was quiet, and many people looked here curiously, covering their mouths and talking in low voices.

Xia Yihui paused for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand towards the top of the opponent's head, and pulled the military cap he was wearing to the side.

There were exclamations from many people nearby, obviously this kind of offensive behavior frightened the surrounding people a lot.

They thought that Zhang Qingyu would resist and open Xia Yihui's hand, but he didn't. In fact, not only did he not resist, he even lowered his head slightly so that Xia Yihui could play with the military cap more conveniently.

"This kind of military cap looks good when you wear it askew." After a pause, Xia blinked playfully, smiling brightly, "Master Zhang, long time no see, do you miss me?"
