Chapter 21: Ghost Hotel

Views:

Lin Yining didn't play many games, but he realized that he must have encountered some mission.

The old dwarf continued, "You go to the Heart of Stone first."

"What is a Heart of Stone?" Lin Yining hesitated, and asked, "Where can I find it?"

"It's just a kind of material. You ask me where to find it?" The dwarf's eyes widened and he said angrily, "I don't know where to find it, you can find it yourself."

After all, the business was not done, and Lin Yining was pushed out, and the door of the shop was closed.

Lin Yining stood at the door, helpless.

Now that the bow is not in his hands, and he has no weapon, he can't even do the upgrade task. At least he has to wait until he gets the bow and arrow three days later. Taking advantage of this time, Lin Yining planned to find out what this Heart of Stone was.

He found a seat in a small shop nearby, opened the trading area in the app, and searched for Heart of Stone, but found nothing. Instead, he found a lot of self-recommendation posts from intermediaries. You can find everything, know everything, and have a wide network of contacts.

Unexpectedly, it took only so long for the game world to appear, and even the intermediary appeared, so he couldn't help being amused. Inside, Lin Yining also saw an acquaintance, the one who sold his headgear at the gate of the city just now.

Since he was not particularly good at shopping around, seeing that these intermediaries were all similar, Lin Yining simply gave up thinking about it and directly contacted the young man who sold his things in the morning. This person is called Meng Han, and the official ID photos taken by the end of the world are quite handsome.

In the post-apocalyptic world, players use the email function in the app to communicate with each other. Originally, Lin Yining didn't think that the other party would see it soon, but after less than a minute, there was a reply from there. Lin Yining told him the address of the drink shop he was in, and waited quietly. After a while, Meng Han came over.

"I happened to be nearby just now, and I came as soon as I heard the news." Meng Han dressed a little neater than before, with a proper smile on his face, and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Thanks to his rank, Lin Yining now enjoys some preferential treatment from Meng Han's side. As a fledgling intermediary businessman, Meng Han is eager for Lin Yining.

Lin Yining said: "I want to find out something, do you know where there is a Heart of Stone?"

Meng Han thought for a while, then smiled and said, "That's a coincidence, I happened to know." He opened his app, and took out a book from it, with a list of world tasks and rewards written on the title. I looked for it in the directory and found it in a short while.

"This is a reward for an eighth-level mission, and the location is in Qingxiang."

Qingxiang is also a Liberty City. Unlike Jingcheng City, which is a second-tier city, Qingxiang is a small little-known city, not far from Pisces City.

Lin Yining asked him for the detailed information of this task, and was watching carefully when he heard Meng Han ask him: "Can I ask? How did you awaken your bloodline?"

Lin Yining looked up at him.

The newly bought cloak can hide the face and make it difficult to see. But Meng Han clearly felt that Lin Yining was staring at him under the cloak.

"I... I'll just ask." He laughed dryly and said, "If it's not convenient, just let it go, I'm sorry."

"It's nothing." Lin Yining lowered his head and continued to look at the information: "When I met a monster, I was awakened at the moment of life and death."

"Oh, oh." Meng Han hurriedly complimented him: "I heard that your awakened bloodline is better than the NPC's."

Lin Yining asked: "Isn't it just enough to go to the task after reaching the level?"

"No." Meng Han explained: "First of all, you have to test out that you have the blood of this race before you can awaken. Generally, you go to the mission points of various races to awaken, and there are also people like you. After awakening, the real mission is to complete the mission. members of this race."

"Yeah." Lin Yining replied, and recalled, who was the one who stamped his elven blood back then? It's like... a clown.

After spending such a long time in the game, the tragedy in the subway station has gradually blurred.

While he was looking at the documents, Meng Han waited. After a while, I heard Meng Han say again: "I still have a customer here, and I plan to go there to collect some things, and I want to form a high-level one. What they want is another thing, which does not conflict with you. go?"

Lin Yining put down the materials and said, "OK."

.

In the afternoon, still in this beverage shop, under Meng Han's recommendation, Lin Yining saw a few people who were going to do the task together.

The other four seem to be familiar with each other, a ninth-level ghost, a seventh-level human warrior, and an invisible orc with an unawakened ordinary human. Surprisingly, among these few people, the one who made the decision looked like that ordinary human being. He stood up and shook hands with Lin Yining.

"My name is Fan Zike." Said the human being, that is, Fan Zike.

Lin Yining greeted the four of them and asked, "Why do you use an intermediary to find someone to form a team? Aren't you afraid it will be unsafe?"

Fan Zike explained: "The task requires five people to do it together, so I found it. Because the time is relatively urgent. If you are afraid of safety, we can separate after we go in."

Lin Yining hummed, indicating that he understood.

"When is it convenient for you to go?" Fan Zike didn't care about Lin Yining's overly indifferent attitude, and asked, "My idea is that we go in as soon as possible. It would be even better if we can go today."

Lin Yining had no other opinions. After they exchanged the content of the dungeon, they were ready to start this task.

That's what it says in the mission background introduction. Without any accident, a college student suddenly disappeared. After checking his various social software, relatives and friends found that he had a plan to travel freely before he disappeared. And the last place he planned to go before disappearing was a nature reserve in Qingxiang.

He stayed in a local hotel for one night, and after checking out the next day, there was no news. Lin Yining and other five people play the role of five roommates of this college student. They decide to go to the nature reserve to retrieve their friends.

The mission starts with a bus in the center of Qingxiang. The car is a very common one. From the time they buy the ticket to get on the car to the time they start driving, there are two-thirds of the people in the car. It looks no different from the world outside the game.

Lin Yining sat very close to the other four people, and he felt that the creeper wrapped around his wrist rubbed against his palm as if it was uncomfortable.

"Ah!" The girl sitting next to him exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yining turned his head and asked, and then he noticed that his cloak was inexplicably missing. The hand with a large piece of bark was abruptly exposed to the air.

['Professional coser's cloak' has been judged to be an unsuitable prop for use in this dungeon. Players are requested to pay attention to read the rules of the dungeon and not to be opportunistic.]

A system notification sound came from Lin Yining's ear.

Fan Zike, who was sitting in the row in front of Lin Yining, turned his head, saw Lin Yining's terrifying face, and had no intention of avoiding it. "Most racial skills and items are restricted," he said.

They saw this rule before entering the dungeon, saying that it would randomly restrict the use of some items, but they didn't expect them to get the hell mode.

Maybe it was because Lin Yining's complexion was not very good-looking, the girl sitting next to him hesitated and changed seats.

Lin Yining took out a mask from his pocket and put it on his face.

"This dungeon should not have too much fighting content." Lin Yining lowered his eyes and replied: "In a dungeon that relies on brains, props are not important."

The ghost sitting behind him snorted.

Lin Yining ignored him, and continued: "If the main line of the mission is to decipher, the hotel will definitely be involved, so let's go there first."
