Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Chapter 26: Two batches

Views:

This is a dark room.

The four taskers in the room couldn't see the situation in the room clearly in the darkness, but the live broadcast room provided a night vision function, allowing Xu Bei to barely see what the room was like.

From the gray and green live broadcast room, it can be seen that this room is a bedroom, about ten square meters, with a large bed in the middle, bedside tables on both sides, and a wardrobe outside the door.

The curtains were clearly opened, but there was no light from the windows. It was dark outside, and even if it might be night, there was no light from the stars and the moon.

It seems that this dark room is the main scene of the owner of the nightmare.

Because it is night vision, only this can be seen clearly on the gray screen.

Xu Bei could only see these, and the four taskers in the room even knew nothing. In panic and perplexity, when they had just entered the nightmare, there was a loud noise directly in their ears.

"Report the number!"

Report the number? What to report

They fumbled around in the darkness, finally determined that there were four people around, and they talked verbally.

Among them, some people yelled "one" very vigilantly in accordance with the voice's request.

About a minute later, another grumpy "report the count!" blasted in their ears.

The man who was the first to speak anxiously said: "No... it can't be like this... Let's see what's around us?"

Someone answered him: "Yes. Third, you stand still, we will search around you."

The third child stood still obediently: "Okay, second brother."

The remaining three taskers consciously dispersed.

But... the name of the third child made Xu Beijin, who was watching the progress here through the live broadcast room, stunned for a moment. His memory instantly returned to a few days ago. On the initial avenue of the narrow building, he watched three of them. A conversation with men.

He frowned and recalled, and then thought, so, is this nightmare the nightmare of the little boy who is always talking about a string of numbers among the three people

Reminiscent of that time, one of the three people said that he saw the little boy running in the direction of Ringo, chasing him but didn't see anyone, and then he was driven out by the impatient Ringo...

Xu Beijin suddenly had a strange idea.

Ringo appeared in this nightmare, wouldn't it be because he did meet that little boy

Speaking of Ringo, Ringo was not in this dark room at this time. After these taskers came to this nightmare, they were divided into two batches.

Xu Bei's thoughts flashed through his mind, and when he continued to focus on the live broadcast, he found some barrage floating in the live broadcast.

An audience came in.

"Beibei is good!"

"Beibei is finally on the air! Oh, oh, I miss you so much [heart]"

"Hey, the new anchor? The new anchor dared to break into the quagmire of horror game live broadcasts. I have some ideas. For your courage, I will pay attention first!"

"New viewers! Welcome, we are handsome and cute in North, and there is a reasoning boss in the live broadcast room, so it's not a loss to invest in shares."

"I glanced at the number of followers of Beibei, 5 alone, so miserable."

"Yes, there are only 4 viewers now... It's worse."

"It can only be said that the live broadcast of horror games is so unpopular... Harm. The anchor dare not broadcast it, and the audience dare not watch it. I can only say that Beibei is too handsome, so I can't help but watch it."

"... In the era of screen games, the anchors didn't change their faces at the ghosts that popped up on the screen. Now the era of brainwave access... Oh, all of them are scared."

"The courage of the anchors cannot keep up with the speed of technological development."

"However, Bei, as an anchor, how can you start broadcasting every few days? Do you want to become popular?"

The enthusiastic audience made Xu Bei overwhelmed for a while. He greeted the audience, and then under the sweet words of the audience, there was no way to resist—so he agreed to broadcast more later.

Xu Beijin: "..."

He can't decide whether to broadcast or not!

How about taking the audience around the interior of the narrow building in the future? Or, go to the more lively areas where taskers gather

Xu Bei thought for a moment, then temporarily put aside these thoughts and watched the live broadcast with the audience.

The audience sighed again: "Oh, today Bei is also a tool man."

"? With that said, can Beibei give us some spoilers?"

"Don't don't don't, it's very boring."

"[Laughs and cries] The reasoning boss is the reasoning boss."

The audience chatted and gave new audiences an overview of the game, while watching the dark room where the four taskers continued to explore the dark room.

They fumbled forward, touched the bed, wardrobe and bedside table, so they all understood that this was a bedroom.

The third child murmured to himself: "The bedroom... Tell me the number... Little boy..."

His companion asked him carelessly: "Old third, do you want to say'two' first?"

"Let's talk." The third child hesitated, then said, "Be cautious the first time... Well, yes... Try to collect as much information as possible."

The third child does not seem to be a very self-confident person, so even though he acts as a think tank in the three-person team, he still uses a soliciting tone to say what to do.

In contrast, the second brother he referred to was the one who clearly proposed a plan of action.

As for the boss...

"Oh fuck!" The old man yelled, "What did I bump into? It hurts me!"

The whole is a grumpy old man.

"Boss, are you fucking annoying?" The second brother shouted impatiently, and then said loudly into the air, "Second!"

They waited for a while, and nothing special appeared.

A few people looked at each other and thought, could it be that this nightmare really just ended by reporting the number normally

At this time, there were a total of four taskers in the room. Except for three men who knew each other, another one suddenly said softly: "I think... Should I try to leave this room first?"

After she spoke out, the rest of the taskers realized that she was a woman. Prior to this, she had not participated in their conversation, and she seemed very introverted.

"Yes, you can try..." the third child also responded softly, "but... you must first explore this room."

"I have no opinion."

After speaking, the introverted woman stopped talking at all.

Several people fumbled around the room in the dark, and after a while, they were all discouraged.

The boss said: "Damn, this wardrobe is poisonous, it can't be opened at all."

The second brother said: "The bedside table and the window can't be opened, it seems there is nothing to explore. What's the matter with this nightmare?"

After another moment, the introverted girl whispered: "I seem to... I touched the doorknob, but I can't open it either."

There are doors and windows but they cannot be opened; there are bedside tables and wardrobes, and the same cannot be opened. The bed is on the floor, and there is no room for hiding things underneath. In this way, although this room is a bedroom, it is no different from an empty room.

The eldest suddenly lost his temper: "This is boring, right?" He yelled, "I said that the little boy is a ghost, you don't believe it!"

"Okay, stop bb." The second brother rolled his eyes, "Are you shouting so loudly to conceal your fear of the dark?"

"Who, who is afraid of the dark! You fucking explain it to me!"

No one cares about the boss.

They didn't speak, and such a completely dark room and vision really made people feel a little flustered.

At least the audience in the live broadcast room said tremblingly: "Bei, Bei, can you show us some pictures of Yang Jian?"

If the live broadcast is all black, it's fine, but now the gray night vision, coupled with the glowing eyes of people, makes the audience not so good at once.

Xu Bei was fine, because he was thinking about what this dark room meant in a nightmare. The reasoning boss, who must have been silent, also fell into thinking.

But now that the audience said so, Xu Beijin recovered, adjusted the viewing angle of the screen, and opened the small window mode, placing his own screen in the lower right corner.

In this nightmare, there are several scenes that can be selected. Xu Bei can scan it, and he can see the bedroom, the promenade, the parking lot, the highway, and the service area. The service area is divided into several second-level scenes. Among them are bookstores, supermarkets, gas stations, and so on.

There are so many scenes, but in fact, the taskers are only divided into two batches. One group is in the bedroom now, and the other is in the corridor.

Although the name that followed the promenade included Xu Beijin's rather troubled Ringo, he hesitated for a moment before adjusting his perspective.

Taskers in the promenade are running and arguing.

There are also four taskers here, one of them is Ringo, the remaining three men, two arguing, and one remaining, Xu Bei is familiar.

Before he could figure out who this person was, he doubted life first.

Is it so easy to meet acquaintances in nightmares now? !

And the two are still arguing.

"Are you sick? Did you just push me?"

"Then what do you want me to do? Give you up or protect you? Will you wake up? We are in a nightmare, and I don't want to die."

"You can let me die if you don't want to die? Well, I haven't seen a selfish ghost like you for a long time!"

"Selfish? Everyone is just surviving in this damn game, you call me selfish, you have the ability to be a Virgin, and you will stand in front of me? I must thank you very, very much."

"Fool, you, wait, I will push you out when the man in black catches up!"

"Hehe, you and me are half-hearted."

Another man said weakly, "Hey... Can you stop this low-level quarrel of the two of you? We are being hunted down..."

Yes, as he said, they are being hunted down. A man in black clothes and a black mask, carrying a machete, chased behind them at a fast pace.

The reason for the quarrel between the two taskers is also very simple.

When they first entered this nightmare, one of them, the man who was scolded by the selfish ghost, was startled by the man who suddenly chased him with a machete behind him, so he subconsciously pushed the tasker around him out.

This kind of behavior made the man disgusting enough, so although he was not hit by the man in black with a machete, he immediately ran away, but he was scolding the selfish ghost all the way, wishing to kick this guy. go out.

And the selfish ghost replied cursingly.

It is true that the taskers cannot kill each other, but it is still common for this kind of side ball to push others to die.

Although once you meet this kind of person, it's probably... a whole nightmare will be cold.

Not to mention the true ending, it's thank good to be able to mix it with a normal ending.

So, the person who was pushed out to be the quest for the dead ghost replied very unconvincedly: "Is it because I want to fight? This is not the fucking ranking and he cheated me, this is a nightmare, damn it!"

The man who spoke for the dead ghost was also silent, a trace of complicated emotion flashed in his eyes, and at the end he said nothing.

Ringo said impatiently, "Run out first."

A man in black is chasing after carrying a machete, and they are just here whispering? Really rely on the man in black to run slowly

Ringo was speechless for such a character.

He seriously thought, was it because he had recently entered nightmares too frequently? Maybe he can take a break...

For Ringo, whether he can enter the nightmare is nothing more than the question of whether he will be too boring in a narrow building.

While thinking, he ran to the outside of the promenade without stopping.

Walking out of the promenade, the light suddenly brightened. There is a wide open space outside, and a fork road connects the open space with a wider road outside.

This is a parking lot, and there are still a few cars parked randomly in the open space.

The man who had been listless suddenly said in shock, "Isn't this going to be a road chase?!"

Thirty seconds later, when the man in black chased out the promenade, opened the door of a car and stepped in, the rest of the taskers all glared at the poisonous guy.

The man replied: "So... who of us will drive?"

"you will not?"

"Ah... I'm really a waste." He sighed, "My driving skills are not very good. This kind of chase, I'm afraid of being overtaken by problems."

He said a few words cursing for the dead ghost, and then said: "I'll start the trip."

The selfish ghost sneered: "You are the Virgin, admit it."

As soon as he rolled his sleeves for the dead ghost, he wanted to hit someone, but because the man in black had already started the car and rushed towards them, he resisted it.

The four taskers quickly picked a car nearby. Ringo sat in the passenger seat, and the other two sat in the back seats.

The car started and drove out of the clearing quickly, and the listless man looked out the car window and thought of the several cars still parked in the clearing.

He couldn't help muttering to himself: "Different cars... seem to have different performance. If the nightmare breaks down later, the speed of the man in black will also become faster, maybe we have to grab a suitable car here in advance, or even should It’s best to leave in batches, each for four people and one car... No, no, it will restart if one dies. You still have to divide the cars according to their skills... ”

"What are you talking about?" asked irritably while driving for the dead ghost, "this man in black is ridiculously slow. I only drove sixty yards, and he is gone."

But the man in the back seat said, "Slow now does not mean slow in the future."

The rest of the people in the car were startled, except for Ringo, who had always been expressionless.

"Forget it, I'm just a trash, don't listen to me..." The man sighed and scratched his hair. "Don't believe me. I'll just talk about it."

He said so, but what he said makes sense.

Frowning for the dead ghost in confusion.

Xu Beijin in front of the live broadcast room also frowned in confusion.

Because he had already remembered the identity of this man he was familiar with.

His name is Mu Jiashi.

Long ago, Xu Beijin had contact with Mu Jiashi. At that time, many taskers in the narrow building were curious about Xu Beijin's nightmare. As a result, many taskers began to stalk Xu Bei, including Mu Jiashi.

But Xu Beijin kept taboo about his nightmare, and the discouraged Mu Jiashi gave the drink he had obtained to Xu Beijin. Xu Beijin felt embarrassed and gave a clue about the nightmare, but Mu Jiashi succeeded in hitting the true ending with this.

Prior to this, Mu Jiashi's name had actually been well-known on the ground floor of the narrow building. The main reason was that he was in a business with a boss—bringing customers to higher floors.

This kind of business is not uncommon in narrow buildings, because as long as a nightmare has a true ending, all taskers present can go to a higher floor. This is a mutually beneficial thing.

This kind of profession with a boss is called a thug; if you are more polite, you may be called a gold nugget.

In the narrow building, these gold diggers belong to different organizations, some of which are more famous, and some are very small workshops. In general, there are no rules or restrictions anyway. Being tricked and tricked is a very common thing, and it is not formal.

After the Nuggets took the boss to fight, they would consciously hit a bad ending several times, and then return to the original floor to continue to lead the boss. If the boss takes too much, or if you don’t want to return it, you can stop at a higher level.

However, the higher-level nightmare difficulty is obviously not comparable to the lower-level nightmare. Therefore, maintaining the success rate is also a problem.

Many gold diggers went up and down in the narrow building, but the success rate was always not satisfactory, and the career ended dismal.

And Mu Jiashi, the reason why he is called a big brother, is because his success rate is 100%. Although he only brought the boss at the bottom level, this is also a sufficiently strong record.

However, after setting this record, he didn't know why, he chose to leave his own organization of gold nuggets and ventured on his own. Then, he got some clues from Xu Beijin and went to a higher floor.

Further on...

He is back to the bottom

Xu Bei couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Why is Mu Jiashi back again? Is it because you hit a wall on a higher floor

But he is in this state... He must call himself trash. Is this a stimulus

The Mu Jiashi that Xu Beijin once met, although not full of ambition and ambition, he was confident. After all, this is the big guy with 100% of the bottom-level nightmare endings.

However, now this decadent, listless man is actually the former boss of Jiashi and Shepherd

What happened to him

Xu Bei was thinking very suspiciously, when suddenly, the counter in front of him was knocked.

He looked up in surprise and saw a young man standing in front of him, smiling and asking him: "Hello, this is the first time I saw you, are you interested in joining us in the battle to defeat NE?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

ha

He was at a loss for a moment, then shook his head, and responded flatly: "Sorry, I don't want to."

The young man didn't seem surprised, shrugged, and said casually: "Okay, when you want to join, I will ask again."

After speaking, he went out.

Xu Beijin: "..."

Did he meet Ringo No. 2

No, no, Ringo is much more troublesome than this young man.

Xu Bei sighed for a moment with a headache.

What's going on, it feels that starting from the last nightmare, his life like stagnant water suddenly changed.

At this time, the barrage in the live broadcast room was already full of: "Bei Bei Bei Bei, what is NE?"

It's like a little chick waiting to be fed.

Xu Bei regained his senses and explained: "The game "Escape from the Sky" has a mastermind that controls the overall situation. We call it NE."

"I see."

"Hi, I didn't expect that this game even has a special title for the main brain."

"The reasoning boss said that the player may play the role of an NPC, will the main brain also...?"

"? This brain hole... But it is not invincible to be random to the main brain? There is no game experience."

"A set of magical outfits for the start, a dollar of 999, uncomfortable?"

"Compared to this, I'm even more curious why they want to defeat NE... Is there any inside story?"

"The reasoning boss analyzes a wave?"

"The amount of information is too little... The only thing I can think of is that the main brain has a lot of restrictions on the actors, so the actors can't stand it. Want to resist?"

"Isn't this done by directly reporting to the game company?"

"So... the main brain is a real object, not a piece of virtual data? The object to be defeated should always be a real object, right?"

"Maybe because the feedback is useless, so I want to do something in the game? Protest to the game company? Listening to Beibei's previous meaning, it may be difficult to change the character after it is created."

"Laughing to death, I feel that this group of players are good at playing."

Xu Bei smiled bitterly in his heart, his face faintly.

He thought, player... Yeah, player.

They are indeed players. However, they are players who cannot leave this game. The object of resistance they can find is nothing more than the mastermind.

In addition, the so-called battle to defeat the NE is not really directed at the NE, but the actors who have collapsed or even completely fallen into their role.

They tried to use a hope that sounds very good to let the desperate actors find some light, at least for the time being to stay sober and rational.

As for after

No one knows what the future will look like.

Escape from birth, death, or... sink into the nightmare of collapse

The audience thought this was game players looking for fun, and they would never think that this was just human beings desperate, absurd and unreasonable self-help behavior.

That young man who was not very serious, maybe he was just doing it once he didn't know if there was a scene, rescue

In his opinion, perhaps Xu Beijin was already hopeless.

Xu Bei was thinking, and another barrage floated on the screen.

"By the way, NE...'What's it?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

His expression couldn't be stretched at the time, he wanted to talk and stopped, but he wanted to stop.

In the end he held it back.

Okay.
