third day.
Jiang Xiaoli began to calculate carefully. Breakfast time can go to the movie theater to eat popcorn to save, and then go to the swimming pool. After coming out of the swimming pool, go to the restaurant to have a serious lunch, and then go to the game hall to get a meal coupon every day. It's a pity that she only has one cruise coin in her hand, otherwise she can continue fishing after going to the game hall to exchange for a coupon. But there is still an ice skating rink here that she hasn't been to, so maybe she can go there in the afternoon to see the situation.
Then, you can go back to your room to rest for a while, and then you can wait until night to go to the dance hall for dinner. In this way, only one meal coupon is needed for daily consumption.
"Today's recommended experience item: Swimming pool ~ friendly reminder to guests who want to experience this facility, remember to prepare your swimsuit~"
Someone made a sound of surprise, and it took Jiang Xiaoli some time to learn from the bits and pieces of complaints: the casino can still take items as collateral.
Someone has mortgaged the swimsuit. Some even lost their phones. Including the suitcase... I guess there are only two clean clothes left.
What a tragedy, Jiang Xiaoli thought, this is the loss of his wife and his army. Jiang Xiaoli didn't think these people could really take advantage of the casino run by ghosts.
The crowd dispersed, and some seemed to go back to their rooms to get their swimsuits, while others went to the swimming pool. Jiang Xiaoli and Li Hongying went to the cinema together.
Now she is less and less serious about watching movies, and her mind is all on popcorn and Coke. The only thought was also about the "one more meal voucher left" chuckle.
This first movie didn't even have any other guests, so she and Li Hongying took over the show here. The two staff members stood at the door trembling, not daring to look at the two people sitting in the middle. The movie played fairly well, and no ghosts appeared until Jiang Xiaoli ate up a bucket of popcorn and was replaced by the staff thoughtfully.
It wasn't until the end that there was a wave of Yin Qi symbolically swaying in the auditorium, and it disappeared quickly. As if afraid of being caught by Li Hongying.
Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but think, is this obvious change because Li Hongying killed a werewolf last night? Or was it because there were only the two of them in the entire auditorium? … maybe a little bit of both.
At the end of the movie, when they went to the swimming pool, there were still many people in the swimming pool.
Someone tried to get through without a bathing suit, but within a few seconds, he climbed ashore screaming and burning red. It wasn't easy for those who put on swimsuits either. The black shadows who had been bullied by Li Hongying for two days seemed to be elated today, chasing after the guests screaming again and again. Once those guests are caught, they will sink directly to the bottom of the swimming pool, and there will be a series of bubbles, and they will not be able to break free and float up with their own strength alone.
However, Jiang Xiaoli soon discovered that some of the guests were also cooperating, in groups of two. When one person went down, the other was on top to support them. Once caught by a dark shadow in the water, they would immediately help and pull them up.
Among the NPCs, there are also NPCs who have lost their guest status and need to kill people, not to mention players, who can get props, meal coupons, etc. by killing players. Even when such cooperation occurs, most people do not fully place their lives in the hands of others.
"There will always be people in the swimming pool today." Jiang Xiaoli hesitated, if he changed his itinerary, maybe no one would come here after nightfall.
"No. You go, I'll protect you." Li Hongying pushed Jiang Xiaoli to let her change into her swimsuit. Li Gui's identity was discovered? Anyway, she is not afraid. For those players or NPCs who died, she has the ability to make them come and go.
Li Hongying didn't wear a swimsuit, but she could enter the water without changing her face.
The place where Li Hongying was located was quiet and empty, no one dared to come over, and no one dared to speak loudly. Jiang Xiaoli completed the swimming pool experience more smoothly than expected, and got a cruise coin and a meal coupon.
After a full meal from the restaurant, they went to the game hall to continue shooting.
The cruise coin Jiang Xiaoli got today is temporarily kept and is going to continue to be used for shooting tomorrow. Fishing... Let's talk about it later when we can get more cruise coins.
…
"I'm not very good at... skating." Jiang Xiaoli hesitated as he changed his shoes. She tried roller skating when she was in the sky, like this...
"I'll support you." Li Hongying said, "You just need to play."
That being said...
When Jiang Xiaoli dragged Li Hongying and dared not let go but still couldn't control her legs slipping, she couldn't enjoy the joy of skating at all.
The experience of the skating rink is actually to let you escape from being chased by ghosts on the extremely slippery ice. Hold time is five minutes. In three minutes, the ice surface of the venue will change, and one end will rise to form an arc. If the guests are not paying attention, they will easily lose their balance and fall. Well, even if you pay attention, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not make mistakes under the pursuit of ghosts.
But what Jiang Xiaoli is experiencing now...
The ghosts trapped in the corner of the skating rink with bloodshot eyes and staring at the staff said: It’s not that we want to miss work and be lazy, really not!
"Are you trying to forcefully change the rules of the game?"
"It doesn't count." Li Hongying said, "I'm just stronger than them. Those powerful players can do the same."
Of course, there are powerful boss players in the escape game. Sometimes they don’t even need to find clues by themselves to pass the level, but can directly obtain key information through forceful questioning, threatening plot game NPCs or ghosts.
However, Li Hongying has never met her before, even if she did, given how lively she is now, the player probably wouldn't be able to beat her.
…
The dance hall is over.
The meal coupons had accumulated to eleven, Jiang Xiaoli and Li Hongying had just returned to the room, before even sitting down to rest for a moment, the door was knocked.
It's as if... someone has been following them. But when they came back, there was no one behind them.
Li Hongying had a look of disgust on her face, she glanced at Jiang Xiaoli, bloodshot eyes spread, and manipulated the bloodshot eyes to open the door. The visitor was a middle-aged man dressed luxuriously.
"Good evening, dear guests~"
As soon as the voice came out, Jiang Xiaoli recognized that it was the broadcaster. The broadcaster is actually such a gentlemanly man
"What's the matter? The rules of the game allow you to come to the player at the beginning of the fourth day?" Li Hongying's tone was not very good.
"The two of you are naturally special." The gentleman smiled and gently closed the door. His eyes moved to Li Hongying: "You seem to hate me?"
"Sorry, I hate the smell of green-faced ghosts."
The gentleman's expression froze, but he still didn't attack. He smiled decently: "That's a pity."
Li Hongying didn't answer, and Jiang Xiaoli also sat quietly. Unsurprisingly, this person should be the owner of this luxury cruise ship, and he should also be regarded as the big boss of this instance. At the beginning of the fourth day of the game, the big boss knocked on the door... Jiang Xiaoli really couldn't figure out what this person's intentions were.
"The cruise ship is my passion. I'm not like other ghosts, eager to escape. The flesh and blood supplied in each game is enough to meet my needs." The gentleman thought about it, and said sincerely: "Perhaps you should restrain yourself a little bit. , I will also order my employees not to attack the two of you."
"Heartblood?"
"Yes, it is such a wonderful thing to be able to operate a luxury cruise ship like this. It brings top-notch service and enjoyment to people..." The gentleman had a fascinated expression on his face, as if he really felt that way from the bottom of his heart. "You've killed many of my employees," he said.
"Didn't you also complain about the game?" Li Hongying shrugged and smiled: "You should know the feeling of the game warning... It's not good."
"...I'm sorry, the werewolves are my most beloved children. They are intelligent, well-behaved, and sensible, and they can bring you the best service."
Jiang Xiaoli listened to this ghost's nonsense, and deeply felt that the thinking of ghosts was completely different from that of humans. This green-faced ghost is even more strange—of course, perhaps for the green-faced ghost, these things are all taken for granted.
This green-faced ghost came to ask for peace.
Maybe it's because it can't stand the disappearance of the staff on the cruise ship, or maybe it's because it found that Li Hongying didn't suffer any substantial harm after complaining about the game.
It's only one o'clock in the morning of the fourth day, and there are roughly four days left in this dungeon. Jiang Xiaoli was a little dazed, she never thought that in the escape game, there would be a dungeon boss coming to her... for peace.
"Besides, you don't want to challenge the bottom line of the game over and over again, do you? This... is the fourth dungeon. The three dungeons after the novice book are the beginner's level during the adaptation period, right?" The gentleman looked confident , it seems certain that Li Hongying will accept it. "Because you are too powerful, this time the dungeon has come to the dungeon that should belong to the middle-level field... Don't doubt the danger of my cruise ship, after all, the final ultimate move has not yet appeared."
"What do you mean?"
"You are the real red-clothed, and have high growth potential. But you are not unique, play it... seal many powerful ghosts." The gentleman said: "I am not your enemy, maybe after you stop, buy props Can I give you another copy as a personal gift?"
Jiang Xiaoli went over this sentence, and translated it as: Don't kill my ghost, when you buy things, buy one get one free.
I'm a little excited.
"Any new ideas for the game?" Li Hongying didn't seem to be moved by the so-called props, but she wanted to know something else. "I, Jiang Xiaoli, what is it doing?"
"It once cultivated very powerful players." The gentleman said: "But it was a human being. After the player died, he turned into a ghost, and he was caught off guard after playing the game. You know, once such a powerful person becomes a ghost... oh , Yin Qi is simply terrifying. The game seems to have taken a lot of effort to seal it."
"Perhaps because of this, the game wants to change the way to use ghosts to deal with ghosts?... Of course, it should deal with those restless, ambitious, and extremely lethal evil ghosts."
The gentleman hesitated for a moment, and continued: "There is one more point, which is also a guess..."
"The strength of the game seems to be weakening."
