The three letters "yan" entered by Yan Wei lit up on the filling panel, especially in the completely dark space around.

[Instance of the best player in Promenade Hotel—code name yan—information has been recorded, players can check this record in the information panel. Players please note that one of the following two situations may occur in the next dungeon entered by the best player: the probability of dropping items in the whole dungeon increases by 10%, or the probability of increasing the difficulty of the whole dungeon increases by 10%. One of the above two situations occurs randomly. ]

Accompanied by Lou's eerie reminder, the faintly bright "yan" floated into his information panel and stayed on the information column of the best player record.

Yan Wei's right fingertips slowly groped for the black ring on his left index finger, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

Appear randomly

Yan Wei saw the power of the whip that Yan Mingguang obtained at the end. Without that whip, they simply wouldn't be able to resist the skeleton for that long.

And he has also seen the result of increasing the difficulty of the dungeon. Except for him, Yan Mingguang and Gao Ming, the other six people who entered the dungeon of the Promenade Hotel all died in the dungeon.

These two possibilities are basically two extremes.

Half hell, half heaven.

Yan Wei turned his eyes away from the best player's information, and carefully scanned the settlement data and the obtained item Skull Eye, the surrounding darkness slowly faded into bright color as if fading.

Lou's notification tone changed, and the original gloomy and erratic voice was replaced by a high-pitched child's voice, as if a happy child was speaking.

[Welcome to the world inside the building...! ]

Gambling area.

Although a lot of new players have been introduced into the world inside the building recently, and the number of dungeons that open the gambling building has also increased rapidly, one game after another is projected continuously, but compared to the player base in the world inside the building and the frequency of dungeons that happen all the time However, there are still very few copies that start the game.

Every game projection is crowded with players.

Recently, the only one that appeared on the first-floor dungeon projection in the gambling area, the success probability of the dungeon has soared from 3% to 100%.

"How long has it been since the dungeon that opened the gambling building has such a desperate anti-kill?"

"Originally, the probability of a gambling building appearing in a dungeon on the first floor is extremely low, but now it has directly soared by 97% of success... a record. If it is recorded in the endless stone tablet, those organizations in the central area may notice."

"Let me lose the bet... The survivors of this copy will not meet me someday."

"You still want to take revenge? If the rookie player who can complete 97% counter-kill is at the same dungeon level as you, it's up to you? And the rest of the players have turned on the privacy mode, you don't know who are they."

"What are you afraid of? I'm not the only one who wants to find them, and I'm definitely not the only one who wants to take revenge. When the results of the best player evaluation come out, those organizations will not be idle."

"..."

Some players stared blankly at the already completely black projection, some looked downcast, flustered, remorseful, and some opened their mouths to curse...

A few minutes later, a paragraph of words slowly emerged from the projection that had been silent for a while.

[The settlement of the first-floor copy of the Promenade Hotel is over. The initial number of dungeons: 9 people, the final number of surviving people in the dungeon: 3 people, and the final number of people who cleared the dungeon: 3 people. Since the dungeon triggers the gambling building mechanism, the difficulty of the dungeon far exceeds the critical value, and the players who pass the level in the dungeon completely crack the dungeon. This dungeon will be permanently recorded on the endless stone tablet in the central area. All players in the building are welcome to check and watch at any time. ]

[The best player code name for this dungeon: yan. ]

Against the dark projection background, the three bright red letters seem to be written profusely with blood, and the strokes are blurred around, like an endless dark fire burning in the thick night.

Lin Zhen's dark red eyes were alluring and treacherous. He licked the corner of his lips, and the bloody smell from biting his fingertips still remained in his mouth.

He lightly touched the black longbow on his back with his backhand. He was dressed in black, and watched the best player's code name slowly fade with his eyes motionless. The projection of the entire gambling game dimmed, and he turned around and raised his feet.

Jiang Xiu raised his hand to stop him: "Where are you going?"

Lin Zhen turned his head, admired Jiang Xiu's distraught appearance from top to bottom, and chuckled with a protracted tone: "Of course - I went to find this 'yan'...it should be that very strong silver-haired man, right?"

Yan Wei originally thought that after coming out, he could immediately see the world inside the building that Gao Ming said was indistinguishable from the real world. Unexpectedly, as soon as the surrounding lights appeared, he was forced to sleep and rest by the mechanism of the building.

When he woke up, he was lying in a newly decorated and spacious apartment.

Floor-to-ceiling windows bring light into the living room, the sky outside the window is as blue as washing, and the early sun hangs obliquely in the east. The light of broken gold permeated through the cut space, trickling slightly brightly into Yan Wei's eyes.

Yan Wei blinked, watching the flying birds passing by outside the window, and slowly regained consciousness from sleepiness. He was lying on the soft sofa at the moment, soaking sideways in the sun, his skin was slightly warmed by the sun.

Empty and bloody eye sockets, a raging fire burning the drawing paper, a skeleton shattered in the fire...

Yan Wei sat up, looked down at the black ring on the index finger of his left hand, and confirmed that all this was not a dream.

This is the world inside the building. This apartment is Gao Ming mentioned to him before, and the residence is automatically obtained after entering the building.

Yan Wei stared at the coffee table in front of him quietly for a while. The next moment, he stood up abruptly, raised his foot and slammed it. His strength was enhanced by the body index gained from the copy of the Promenade Hotel, and he neatly split the coffee table into two halves.

But in less than a moment, the coffee table that was still shattered just now returned to its original state.

Yan Wei understood.

This is the residence Lou arranged for them, a place to settle down, a place to rest during the dungeon buffer period, and also... a place to restrain players. The things here cannot be destroyed, players can live forever, but they cannot leave completely.

He wanted to observe for a while, when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"—Yan Wei? I'm Gao Ming, you didn't go out, did you? The address is correct...? This is the friend's address on the information panel."

"Yan Wei? Are you there?... Yan Wei?...According to the dungeon mechanism of the building, you should just wake up at this time, don't go out, you just came to the building and you are not familiar with the world..."

"Yan Wei? Yan Wei? Are you there? Yan—"

Yan Wei received a free dark gray windbreaker from the shopping mall on the information panel, and the windbreaker appeared in front of him immediately. He took off the blood-stained windbreaker, put on this new coat, and opened the door .

At the door, Gao Ming stood anxiously, with his right hand raised, he was habitually pushing his glasses. Seeing Yan Wei appearing, his eyes lit up: "I thought you were going out, luckily. Do you have any other arrangements? If not, I want to take you somewhere."

As Gao Ming said, he raised his hand to pull Yan Wei.

Yan Wei evaded sideways without any trace, but still kept up with Gao Ming's footsteps.

The residence Lou gave them was an apartment in one building after another. The doors of each room were quite far apart, and the corridors were also very spacious. The two of them walked all the way out without bumping into any players.

With such a design, if the player does not want to, it is impossible to be interfered by other players.

When they reached the door of the apartment, Yan Wei saw the sky outside that was indistinguishable from the real world and all kinds of high-rise buildings. He paused and said, "You were afraid that I would go out first. What happened outside?"

It is an affirmative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.

Gao Ming had experience with his speculation ability for a long time, so he continued to lead the way without any surprises, turned his head to look at him, and spoke quickly: "It's not like what happened, let's talk as we walked. But I didn't expect...you Follow up first and then ask me."

Yan Wei chuckled lightly: "I see you're in a hurry, you won't cheat me."

Although Gao Ming's abilities are limited, he is the one who can endure the pain of gouging out his eyes in order to help them stop the boss at a critical moment.

"Let me make a long story short. Let me introduce some basic things to you first. You can explore these by yourself during the dungeon buffer period. What I know is actually the most basic. All the facilities in the building world and the real world are basically the same. The ability to live, entertain, and practice dungeons, except that players have supernatural abilities such as props, physical strength, and perception that players cannot have in the real world, the only difference is that we..." Gao Ming spread his hands, "We cannot control our own life and death .”

Yan Wei was raising his head slightly, looking at the towering stele in front of him that went straight into the sky.

The stele seemed to be far away from them, but it was so clear that the edges and corners were extremely sharp.

A piece of pure white flying birds slides across the blue sky, overlapping with snow-white misty clouds, as if the light is infinite. But all the light seems to be unable to shine on the dark stone tablet. It seems to be close at hand, but it seems to be out of reach.

"Controlling life and death? It's not so much controlling as choosing life and death." Yan Wei smiled mockingly, and casually raised his finger to the stele, "What is this?"

When Lou was in the dungeon, he explained everything clearly, but when he came to the world inside the building, there was not a single notification sound for these random things.

Gao Ming: "That's the root of our troubles."

Yan Wei became interested: "Tell me about it."

They walked through apartment buildings and commercial streets that were indistinguishable from the real world, and stopped in front of a station. Yan Wei also noticed that there was a conflict between players on the street corner just now, but it was just a point-and-shoot. It seems that the world inside the building still restricts players from killing each other.

Gao Ming has already started to explain: "This matter is very complicated, but it is actually very simple to say. We opened the gambling building - this is known in the copy. I thought, at most, it is the same as what I knew before. After the gambling, some people bet, and nothing else. But this time when I released the dungeon, several players who had been in touch with me before asked me if I went to a dungeon called 'Promenade Hotel', thinking The timing of my in and out of the copy sort of coincides.

After I denied it, I quickly inquired about it and glanced at the dungeon records of the gambling building, only to find that there has not been a super-high level of gambling difficulty in a level of dungeon in the world of the building for a long time, and the mechanism of the gambling building once judged our success The probability is 3%, and in the end you and Yan Mingguang cleared the level... "

"It's us," Yan Wei corrected him, "The three of us cleared the level."

Gao Ming was startled, smiled a little embarrassedly, raised his hand and pushed his glasses several times, and then grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Okay, you take me to pass the customs. In short, the gambling building mechanism will be followed by the promenade hotel dungeon gambling The ratio of winning to winning, betting that we failed to pass the level accounted for 99.6% of the bettors. This betting game was even recorded on the endless stone tablet—that is, the stone tablet you see, which records all the classic high-difficulty copy.

As soon as the code name of the best player came out, people who followed this dungeon started looking for Yan... I don't know if it's you or Yan Mingguang, I feel like this code name is suitable for both of you. Anyway, some of these people are organizations that want to recruit newcomers, and some are—"

"revenge."

Gao Ming was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth: "Why do you...?"

Yan Wei lightly pulled back his windbreaker, took out his custom-made swallow coin, put it in his hand and tossed it lightly, endless thoughts were buried in his pale brown eyes.

He chuckled: "Because most mediocre people, after making a wrong decision, their subconscious reaction is always to criticize the trigger that made them make the decision—rather than themselves who made the final bet. Not only are there many such people, There are so many, most people who want to find Yan belong to this category.”

"The place you want to take me to has something to do with this matter?"

"Ah, yes," Gao Ming nodded fiercely, "The station in the world of the building departs every ten minutes, and you can reach your destination in an instant after getting on the train. I want to go to the Dengjiu District of the Entertainment District through this station, where dragons and snakes mixed."

Yan Wei once again grabbed the coin that fell after tossing it up, and narrowed his eyes, his clear voice carried an unhesitating tone: "It's a good place to learn about various channels and news, you want me to understand these things as soon as possible, to sort it out Pros and cons. In this way, if someone finds out, they will know how to deal with the solicitation of those organizations in the so-called world inside the building, or other narrow-minded revenge. They can even decide whether to actively disclose information.”

Gao Ming sighed: "For players who have not yet entered the organization, the next dungeon is very disadvantageous. Although the building stipulates that players cannot kill, especially in the world inside the building, if they are really found Come out and hate it, for those middle and high-level players, it is necessary to prevent a low-level player from coming out in the instance... "

so easy.

As the cool wind blew, the hem of Yan Wei's windbreaker swayed slightly, casting slight shadows in the slanting sunlight.

A pitch-black bus stopped in front of the station silently with a breeze.

"Here we go, let's get in the car."

Yan Wei didn't move.

His eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to stop Gao Ming who was waiting to step forward.

He said, "Why didn't you pull Yan Mingguang?"

Gao Ming: "I sent him a message through Black Ring, but he couldn't talk to me..."

Yan Wei's chin slightly raised, forming an elegant and delicate arc under the warm light. He glanced at the address information of his friend on the information panel, hooked the corner of his mouth, made a "cut", turned around with his hands in his pockets, and walked in the direction of the station with his back on his back.

"There are too many things he said he wouldn't do."

Twenty minutes later, the world inside the building, the light wine area.

One bar after another is lit up in the blue sky and daylight, and the rock music is deafening.

Yan Wei followed Gao Ming, followed by Yan Mingguang who put on a pure black hooded sweater and a hat to hide his silver hair, and the three walked into the largest bar in the Lantern Wine District one after another.
