The ghost card also rotated on the interface at a slow speed, with a light layer of golden red on the edge, and a green-faced fang-toothed evil spirit tattooed in the center of the card.
attributes are so obvious.
Jian Mingjia: "..."
Her face was full of disbelief.
"I—you—" She didn't know how to express her complicated mood now, but after stumbled a few times, she suddenly came to her senses, and felt that such a grouping was surprisingly appropriate.
No no no, it's a heavenly choice!
"It's no wonder," Jian Mingjia couldn't help covering her face, "Isn't this what you do?"
Lin You: "..."
To be clear, why is she doing her job!
"Is not it?!"
Seeing that Lin You still wanted to refute, Jian Mingjia glanced at her.
"Think about what you have done," she said bitterly, "Don't think that I haven't seen the words written on your card, and it has caused such a psychological shadow on others. Are you embarrassed, huh?!"
"...cough, if ghosts don't make me, I won't make ghosts."
Lin You replied naturally: "If you dare to press on my head, don't blame me for cleaning them up."
"So it's still the same thing." Jian Mingjia thought about it, "Okay, you are the best at dealing with ghosts, and you are not afraid that you will not be able to win over those monsters."
After all, after being dealt with by her, even cards can be changed, and I am afraid that those neutral ghosts will not cooperate obediently. No matter how bad it is, if she stands there by herself, one person is an army, not to mention the joint dispatch of SCP-096 and SCP-173, calling out Nyarlathotep can turn the sky upside down.
Distressed, thinking about those hostile players makes my heart hurt—
Thinking of this, Jian Mingjia's expression suddenly changed.
"Let's go, let's go first." She hurried to the computer.
Lin You: "Huh?"
"Lend your computer to log in to mine." Jian Mingjia frowned, "I'll see which one I can get."
At home, she only had time to see if she was qualified, so she hurried over, but she didn't directly draw which camp, she subconsciously assigned herself to the same camp, in case it was the enemy... Now it is hinting that it is too late to act softly
Lin You stood up straight away and gave her the chair. The two have been friends for so many years, Jian Mingjia is not polite, and simply taps the keyboard to log into her account.
She saw which link Lin You opened, and now she cut into it familiarly. But when the dark blue background appeared again, she didn't rush to click, first made a cross, and then quickly gestured back and forth a few times.
"... What are you doing?" Lin You wondered.
Jian Mingjia's face was serious, "How to do it."
Lin You: "..."
All right, as long as you are happy.
After casting the spell for psychological comfort, Jian Mingjia finally took a deep breath and pointed at the card covered with gray cloth.
In a blink of an eye, it spun rapidly in the middle of the screen, and it didn't start to slow down until about two seconds later. The moment they stopped in front of them, the face of the card finally became clear.
The same blue-faced fangs, the same joke cards.
Jian Mingjia let out a long breath.
"I was scared to death. I thought I was going to confront you." She said with lingering fear, "It's not good for the heart to smoke after you. If I knew I was done smoking, I would come back again."
"The probability of 50-50 is not bad."
Lin You said with a smile, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind, "Wait, let me see."
Jian Mingjia let her go and let her take the mouse, and saw Lin You half leaning on the back of the chair, dragging the ghost card around with the cursor.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"It can be transferred, but there is a blank space on the back and nothing is written on it." Lin You pondered for a while, "But look, there is another sentence written below 'then this card will be automatically issued to the player after entering the dungeon' , I suspect it may be the rules of the game of the respective camps."
She didn't say that Jian Mingjia didn't feel it, but when she said it, it really made people think that was the case.
"It's possible."
Jian Mingjia stretched her waist, "Anyway, I'll know when the time comes. What I can't wait to see the most is what those guys who thought you were in the same camp saw you when they were opposite..."
Just thinking about it, you know how wonderful the picture and their expressions must be.
"Hey, I remembered something." Lin You changed the subject, "Before you entered the game this morning, didn't you say that Xiao Geng wanted to tell me something?"
Jian Mingjia's outstretched arms stopped in mid-air.
"Ah, that—"
She paused, as if hesitating whether to convey it, but finally said: "He has a job."
Lin You: "Isn't that a good thing?"
"Yeah, I want to tell you because it's a good thing." Jian Mingjia said softly, "On the day you were not there, he picked up a live coin in the book in the row between us, and he probably made up for his knowledge of SCP. I recognized it. It may be because he picked up the toothbrush before, and after the book was released, he was assigned the ability of a "gold digger". It is said that when he was acting alone in the site, he relied on the warning given by the coin to avoid it. Driving those dangerous creatures, and ended up falling on a basically harmless toaster—it should be because of this, and I’m sorry to mention it to you.”
Lin You said "Hi".
"It's a big deal," she said. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Gold diggers...
"correct."
Jian Mingjia thought of something, "Are you going to play the game later?"
Lin You shook her head.
Unless it is given a chance to talk about it later like "Containment Breach", the same copy may not have the opportunity to be queued for the second time. She must receive the card when she enters the book, otherwise she will feel it is a pity. But thinking about it, tomorrow will be a competitive mode. According to Jian Mingjia's gossip on the forum, it is clear that there are a lot of strange stories waiting.
"Forget it," the arc of the corner of her mouth made people feel cold after seeing it, "Save it for tomorrow."
Jian Mingjia trembled exaggeratedly.
"Okay, I'm going back—the experience bar is almost full, let's see if I can get another level before tomorrow morning." She waved her hand, "See you in the game."
Lin You waved her hand casually, but Lin's mother was not so easy to talk to, and wanted to keep her for lunch. Jian Mingjia had made an appointment to come back another day, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to leave.
Now that she knew it was an urban legend, she stayed at home throughout the afternoon and night and looked through all the information she could find. Early the next morning, the preset alarm clock rang on time. Lin You turned off the alarm, put on the gaming helmet after washing up.
A familiar blue light flickered in front of her eyes, and her consciousness was only in a trance for a few seconds before she stepped on the ground again. Lin You was still a little sleepy, and couldn't help yawning. Before she could check to see if the "competition mode" in the list was on, she suddenly saw a small red exclamation mark beside it.
Someone sent her a message.
Lin You casually clicked on it.
[Sister Yuzu! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !]
How shocking and shocking the string of exclamation marks that followed fully reflected how broken the other party's heart was when typing this line of words.
Before she could reply, she sent another one.
[Are you really from the human side? What should I do if I draw a joke card? ! ! Can you be gentle with me when the time comes, I can't eat spicy food! ! ! ! !]
Lin You: "..."
Geng Qinghe's brain circuit was indeed extraordinary. She stared at the news for a long time before she understood the relationship between "handle lightly" and "can't eat spicy food". After thinking about it, she replied kindly.
[It's okay, I won't do anything.]
Geng Qinghe over there almost wept with joy.
[Thank you sister Yu! ! ! ! !]
The next second, another message came.
[You have to tell Mary Xiao what you said just now, she likes to stuff chili peppers into other people's mouths recently.]
Geng Qinghe: "………………"
Relying on the light screen in his room, he began to doubt life with his eyes blank. Doubting and doubting, I saw a new dialog box popping up on the screen.
[Just kidding, that was a rumor, and mine is also a joker.]
Returning to heaven in an instant is nothing more than that.
Lin You could almost imagine how Geng Qinghe jumped up on the other side of the screen with an "Aw", because she received another long string of exclamation points in a blink of an eye, and the other party cheered and promised that she would never hold back and try her best to come Help your side to win, see you later in the dungeon.
For the remaining few minutes, she waited in place until eight o'clock.
The official did not announce how many people have obtained the qualifications. However, while saying that there will be no live broadcast for the time being, but the video will be edited after the game, a rule was also notified in advance.
Players cannot be arranged in groups, even if they are in the same camp. Everyone can only be matched individually.
Among the lines listing the game modes, the line marked "Competition" suddenly lit up in gray font, and Lin You almost clicked on it in the next second.
At the same time, the voice of the system explanation sounded.
[You have selected the competition mode.]
[In the competition mode, players will be divided into two camps to fight against each other with different mission objectives. The evaluation and reward settlement will be based on whether the player's camp wins or not and their own performance. Agree to continue.]
Needless to say.
[The match is successful.]
[You are about to enter the instance - "Meet the Devil".]
Lin You closed her eyes voluntarily, and when the countdown was over, she opened them again, and there was already a completely different scene in front of her eyes.
—The inside information that Jian Mingjia said is indeed true.
This was her first thought.
The sun sank darkly in the west, and a halo of rosy clouds shone, making the street full of red light. But this does not give people a sense of magnificence at all, it only makes people feel a little bit of coolness creeping up their backs.
Because this is a huge but empty city.
Unlike Mary Shaw's copy of "A Puppet House", looking around, most of the city's streets are invisible, but there is no dust anywhere. Even standing in front of a shop window, you can clearly see your own reflection in it.
There are packaging bags on the counter, and in a restaurant from afar, there are half-eaten meals on the table. It feels like people are still carrying out their lives step by step one second, and evaporated in place the next second.
This group of players is stuck at this point in time.
Lin You is a person who has seen the big world at any rate. When the real body of the evil god appeared in front of him, his face would not change and his heart would not beat. The empty city only got used to it after a few bouts.
She also noticed early in the morning that when she opened her eyes, something extra appeared on her body.
Lin You looked down, just as the small words said, once she entered the dungeon, the joke card was automatically in her hand.
She remembered her conjecture and turned the joker card over.
-really.
[game rules]
[One, the game time limit is forty-eight hours, and the outcome depends on whether all the barriers on the human side are destroyed or whether all members of one side are out of the game.]
[Second, in principle, players are not encouraged to attack each other, and if the token representing the identity (the ghost is a necklace) is damaged, it will be considered out of the game.]
[Third, please try your best to find props that destroy the enchantment.]
[Fourth, the ghosts wandering in the city are all neutral, but only accept the persuasion of ghosts, please make more use of this.]
The first two should be public rules, and the last two are obviously for ghosts. As for the token mentioned above—
Lin You touched the front of her neck and hooked out a long thin metal chain with her fingers.
It can only be this so-called "necklace".
She changed hands and put the joker card into the backpack, took out another skull, and fastened it on familiarly.
The skull was still yawning, "Where is this again?"
It also sensed that something was wrong with this place, but since it didn't know the situation, it couldn't talk nonsense.
"I don't know," Lin You replied, "Go in and have a look."
Before the words fell, he pushed the door open without any explanation.
Others know that urban legends are prevalent, and they have to weigh them in how they walk and how they act. She really wants to run into a ghost.
The breeze from the door opening and closing brought the wind chimes hanging by the door, and the ethereal sound of jingling bells reverberated in the empty and deserted store, which was always a bit creepy.
Lin You didn't care, she looked around and was a little disappointed to see that there was really nothing inside.
Skull has rarely spoken a word recently, so he didn't make a sound at this time, and focused on paying attention to the movement around him.
"There is a voice," it said suddenly.
When Lin You heard this, she immediately bent down.
She pricked up her ears, and she really could hear the faint voice of conversation.
"You said... you can find..."
"Why can't..."
The voices of the voices can only be heard clearly when they are close. Two men and one woman, a total of three people come out of the alley around the corner.
—It’s from the human camp.
It was not surprising that Lin You made a judgment with a glance. The three of them all had the same red silk ropes tied around their wrists.
Just like the "necklace", the material of these silk ropes cannot be seen, so it is not easy to impersonate them.
Lin You moved.
Her movements were very slight, but the feeling of following the shaking skull was the most obvious. It lowered its voice, "What are you going to do?"
Although she didn't say it clearly, it vaguely felt that this time things might not be that simple.
"Of course they got mixed in."
The news that she got the human party was widely circulated on the Internet, and it would be a loss not to use it to find out.
Just like the ghost cards only record the rules of the ghost side, the human cards must also have their unique information.
Seeing that the three of them were about to walk through the door, she glanced at the packing box beside the counter.
The time left for her to prepare was only about ten seconds, Lin You rushed over in three steps at a time, and opened the door.
"etc!"
The two men and one woman were obviously taken aback by the sound. When they turned around hastily, even though they only saw a single girl, they didn't dare to relax their vigilance.
Lin You just smiled while holding the picture book that appeared, "Are you also from the human side?"
Maybe it was because of the inadvertent redness she showed when she raised her hand, the expressions of the three of them relaxed a little, but it was limited.
"Yes," said the older man, "you are..."
He might have wanted her to prove his identity, but Lin You changed the subject.
"You may have heard of me."
She smiled and said, "My profession is a summoner."
She had heard from Jian Mingjia early in the morning that she had been discussed so much that she had even guessed the basis of her abilities, so she simply took advantage of it this time.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the faces of the people opposite all changed.
"you-"
Although the word is still the same, the tone of voice is completely different.
The man's eyes were a little suspicious, but the next second Lin You spread out the illustrated book, he became hoarse.
Looking around, he saw several names—Sadako Yamamura, Gayako Saeki...
Who else can do this? !
"You are the one..." The young boy stuttered a little, "Big big brother?"
He was so happy just thinking about it, he was indeed in their camp!
You can just lie down and fly with the big boss!
Lin You coughed.
"I accidentally landed here," she said, "Which is the nearest barrier?"
The three looked at each other, and finally the boy faltered.
"There are only four in the southeast and northwest. We were sent out to find tokens to increase our strength."
He walked over directly, already thinking about how to sit still and eat melons to watch the show, and look at the opposite side of the big brother Xuebao.
"Or I'll take you—"
The rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
Just at this time, Lin You closed the illustrated book with a "snap", and they could see everything on her wrist.
Then what is the red silk rope to prove the identity, it is simply a red plastic rope that was randomly torn off from the packaging box. At this time, as soon as she let go, she fell lightly to the ground.
Now that I have obtained the information I want to know—
She tilted her head with a half-smile, and her beautiful peach eyes met the boy's gaze.
"sorry-"
Bathed in the extremely shocked eyes of the other three, Lin You held the ghost card between his fingers and flicked it lightly.
"I'm not from your side." She said with a smile.
