On the last crazy Wednesday, they encountered a female dormitory in Beijing Normal University. Liang Jing, Xu Wei and other names including those two bags of spicy chicken feet are still in 606's memory.
And the "neighbors" who appeared this time are obviously not the same group of people as last time.
The white mist outside the window had dispersed to the railing, and before the four girls had time to run back to the next bedroom, they were caught by 606. In an instant, an earthen wall rose from the middle of the balcony, blocking their way back to bed.
Tang Xinjue said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, we are also candidates, and we won't hurt you."
Four girls: ... Then you removed the blocking skills
Zhang You took back the skill card: "I'm sorry, I reacted subconsciously. This skill is not aggressive, just step back."
The four people on the balcony looked at each other and hesitated for two seconds, but they still hesitated and stepped back step by step. When the road blocking the earth wall disappeared, they had to turn around and face to face with 606 who was close at hand behind them.
Tang Xinjue at the front stretched out his hand politely: "Hello, we are students of Shanhe University A, my surname is Tang."
There was a moment of silence on the other side, and a girl with a ball head stood up: "... hello, we... are from Haida."
In just a few words, it took the girl more than ten seconds to speak clearly. Even though her face was stiff and expressionless, she could clearly feel her nervousness.
Guo Guo: [Do we look scary? ]
This sentence was said in the dormitory chat group in my mind, but it was still silent in reality.
Zhang You: [Judging from their current level of defense and panic, it's not just a matter of scaring. ]
As long as it can be observed with the naked eye, there are at least a dozen weapons and props on the opposite side ready to be used at any time. But after Tang Xinjue introduced herself, the tension on the other side continued unabated - did they treat them as some kind of scourge
Tang Xinjue smiled and didn't say anything, but signaled the girl with the ball head to get out of the way: "The countdown is almost over, everyone, don't delay the next challenge."
In the depths of the white mist, the bright red countdown has only 20 seconds left, which indicates that the "gift box rain" of last week will soon come again.
The dormitory next door seemed to be pardoned, and immediately hid in his own dormitory. It seemed that he didn't even plan to participate in this activity, as long as he could stay away from 606.
Guo Guo: [I think it's a bit strange, what do you think? ]
Zheng Wanqing: [I think also... Attention, something has come down from the sky! ]
Putting aside the issue of the bedroom next door, the four of them came to the balcony in the blink of an eye, and took out the tools they had prepared—the washbasin
Every washbasin in a different color is their determination to win promotions!
Bai Tuanzi who was thrown into the sink behind him: "Jiujiu!"
The first gift box arrived in a blink of an eye, and the moment the stench exploded from the washbasin, Zheng Wanqing had already reacted extremely quickly and poured it over the railing with her backhand, allowing the black liquid inside to be harmlessly disposed of by the white mist.
After the previous tempering, they are already prepared for the operation of mixing a few genuine gift boxes with countless waste products in the mall. Coupled with the improvement of physical fitness and abilities, the degree of scrambling is greatly reduced, and they can even predict in advance The gold content of the gift box—
Tang Xinjue: [Two golden gift boxes fell from the upper left corner of Wan Qing, the one that came down first was filled with black gas, and the one that came down later was filled with real objects, catch the second one! ]
Zheng Wanqing raised her arm in response, punched the gift box that fell first, and then firmly caught another golden gift box with a washbasin when the foul-smelling black gas exploded from the balcony.
"Choo Choo Choo!!!"
An extremely eager cry came from behind the four of them again. Looking back, I found that Bai Tuanzi fell from the sink to the ground at some point—still trying to move out of the window.
So it can move by itself
Zheng Wanqing looked at the gift box in her hand: "Do you want this?"
She opened the box directly, and inside was a small wooden bird the size of a palm. The original price on the label was 20 points.
It wasn't very valuable, so she threw it directly at the elf who kept screaming, but Bai Tuanzi walked around without paying attention, her small black eyes still staring in Zheng Wanqing's direction.
Zheng Wanqing:
She couldn't understand, but the rain of gift boxes continued on the other side, and a large box emitting an ominous smell fell straight on top of her head, and it was almost predictable what would happen if it exploded on the balcony.
Zheng Wanqing mercilessly expanded the steel phantom in her right hand to the size of an iron gate, and shot it directly above her head, causing the black gift box to be blown away before it fell, turning into a distant parabola.
"Chirp—"
The little elf yelled, and the whole group stayed where they were, even Black Douzi's eyes seemed to grow bigger.
Guo Guo, who got his attention in the midst of his busy schedule:
[Did I hear correctly just now, why do I feel that there is still a trace of sadness in the cry of the prodigal son? ]
[You heard me right. ]
Tang Xinjue also turned to look over: [It is indeed very sad now. ]
After being dazed for several seconds, Zheng Wanqing finally came to her senses: "What it wants is not a serious gift box? It's... that thing?"
Along the direction of her finger, a tattered gift box landed on the window of the next bedroom with a thud, green liquid splashed out, and a pungent stench hit her face immediately.
The elf came back to life, and the whole dumpling twittered and changed direction, heading towards the next bedroom at a speed of one meter per hour.
"..."
"It shouldn't be, it wants to eat?"
Confirming this outrageous guess, when Tang Xinjue carried it directly to the next window, the restless Bai Tuanzi finally calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, from under the thin and round white skin, a crack suddenly opened upwards, the upper part was stretched to almost the same height as the balcony, and it was swallowed in one gulp!
The floor-to-ceiling windows on the balcony of the bedroom next door disappeared.
In the unfamiliar dormitory, four girls stood behind the bare window frame, looking at 606 in horror.
606 four people: ... how to explain that this is not a deliberate attack? Waiting online, very urgent.
Fortunately, the culprit, the elf, only chewed twice before spitting out that part of the balcony. The window returned to its original position, only the stinky water bomb gift box was gone.
Bai Tuanzi: "Hi."
Witnessing this scene, the four people on the balcony looked at each other with complicated emotions.
Guo Guo persuaded himself: "Well, don't look at how white it looks now, but the main body is that monster in the Friendship League that can mutate infinitely, so the taste is different, should it be normal?"
At the same time, Zhang You has turned his attention to the rain of falling gift boxes:
"The nutrient solution it usually eats is 28 points per bottle, and one bottle is half full. Now such a box can eat the whole thing, so the conversion..."
At least when it comes to the elf's diet, a discarded gift box is worth 56 points!
From an outsider's perspective, 606 probably has something wrong.
They actually started to take the initiative to pick up those boxes that looked like scrap products, and even tried to store and pack them
This further strengthened the determination not to go out at the 605 next door. The girl with the ball head swore: "There must be some trap outside that can make people crazy. Look, even that Tang... even them have already been recruited. If we go out, Can you still escape?"
Another girl was worried: "Then what should we do?"
Wanzitou was very firm: "Still follow the strategy from last time, don't go out even if you are killed!!"
After finishing speaking, they hurriedly added several layers of tape to the edge of the balcony window, in case another horrible white glutinous rice ball next time would eat up this layer of protective cover in one bite.
Outside the balcony, with the countdown to the next event, the gift box rain stopped.
Guo Guo dazedly rubbed his temples: "The stench I smelled in the 20 years before I was born doesn't seem to be more than a day today."
The mall was still pitted as always, few gift boxes of valuable commodities were given, and a lot of waste stink bombs were thrown away. In the end, the little elf couldn't eat anymore, so he paralyzed in it stubbornly to guard the food.
"The good news is that we can save a lot of money on raising it. But the bad news is, where are these things going to be stored?"
After calming down from the state of "grabbing red envelopes", Zhang You pushed his glasses and fell back to the real problem.
Tang Xinjue: "It's okay. Open the mall now, and there should be a discounted deodorant cover on the homepage."
As soon as the words fell, Guo Guo read out the mall message that popped up on his phone: "Odor-blocking and deodorizing dust cover, the lowest price is 20% off for a limited time, now rush to buy and get cash back red envelopes..."
Fine.
After dealing with the mess on the balcony, the few people noticed that the white mist outside had turned into a haze of gray, obscuring the countdown inside.
[Ding dong, the session "Gifts from Heaven" has come to a successful conclusion, and there are still five minutes before the next session "Preferential Offers", students please get ready! ]
"I don't know how the salesman will appear this time, won't he get stuck in a table leg again?"
While unpacking the few normal gift boxes, Guo Guo excitedly rummaged through the boxes in the dormitory to prepare.
After all, after two renovations and expansions, the current dormitory is completely different from the small dilapidated dormitory at the beginning. It would be really hard to find another little radish who got lost in a corner.
Zhang You carried the reluctant elf back into the washbasin, but apart from that, the other half of her attention was outside the balcony: there was still no movement in the next bedroom.
It stands to reason that the elf they raised almost ate each other's window, and they were scared out of their wits, so they should apologize.
But the panic attitude shown there seems to show that not approaching is the best choice to avoid a second shock.
But why is the other party so afraid of them
If you are a novice who has just entered the game, it is understandable, but now it is the second week, and the entire dormitory can survive until now, strength and IQ are indispensable.
Zhang You frowned and expressed doubts: The tension and fear shown by the other party are already obvious to a little abnormal.
— It’s also meeting strangers, not even Liang Jing and others from last week
"A veteran who has lived for more than a week, of course he will not be overly nervous when he meets a strange candidate." Tang Xinjue raised his eyebrows: "That's exactly the reason."
"It is precisely because I am not unfamiliar that I have this reaction."
The three stopped their movements.
Zhang You: "Have we met them before?"
So this wave turned out to be old acquaintances
But looking through the memory, all the names and surnames, those who showed their faces, even the NPCs in the University Town quickly recalled them, but they didn't match the numbers.
Tang Xinjue: "It is indeed [acquaintance], but if you count it carefully, this is the first time we have actually met—do you remember that in the dormitory friendship league, there was a dormitory next to us, and we never showed up?"
With this sentence, the memory valve opened again. Guo Guo's eyes widened: "You mean..."
At that time, the rhythm of the dungeon was too tense. If it hadn't been for the old incident to be brought up again at this moment, she would have almost forgotten that there was a bedroom next door.
Although yes is almost as good as no - because in her memory, from the beginning to the end of that league game, the bedroom next door who shared the same balcony with them did not overdo it. They stayed as firm as a mountain, and still had zero sense of existence. At the same time, it successfully realized the lying win.
"Through the barrier of the bedroom window, I really didn't know who was inside." Tang Xinjue said, "But when they appeared in front of me again, I knew."
What Zhang You realized: "Don't dare to come out, afraid of us...they were not only candidates, but also informers!"
An informer's dormitory that is close at hand, neighbors to each other, but from start to finish.
This can explain why the other party will have this attitude when they are with them.
Guo Guo suddenly realized: "If I were them, I would probably feel that I have seen a ghost."
Tang Xinjue smiled and wanted to say something, but suddenly his face became frozen, and he turned to look out the window:
"Wait, don't go out yet!"
Zhang You, who was just about to clean up the balcony: "What's wrong?"
From her perspective, there is nothing unusual outside the window, only the bright red countdown continues.
Could it be that the next bedroom wants to be a demon
Tang Xinjue shook her head slowly: "I don't feel right."
It was an indescribable, sudden strange feeling, spreading outward from the depths of the sea of consciousness, and it intensified every minute.
"It's like...something is coming."
She closed her eyes and felt for a moment, then she suddenly raised her eyes:
"Close the window!"
— can't let anything in.
Guo Guo felt a slight stabbing pain coming from the helmet, and quickly resolved it with his eyes: "What's the matter? Besides the salesman, who else will come in?"
Tang Xinjue didn't say anything for a moment, and after a while he laughed angrily: "You're right, only [salesmen] can come in openly... I didn't expect it to be lingering, and this time it even stretched out its hand on Crazy Wednesday. Wan Qing helped Pull down the curtains, Zhang You confirms the props, we have to open all the protective covers."
Looking out of the window, Tang Xinjue seemed to be looking at the ghost marks floating and spinning in his own sea of consciousness.
"The coming one is not a salesman, but an old friend who is more familiar. In a college town, its name should be... Chaos God."
