"But it's not fair, why..."
"There is nothing unfair. There is never a free lunch in this world. Moreover, this is the rule. I am only the host. It is useless for you to protest to me."
Mr. Corpse interrupted Mr. White Cat's questioning, looked at the hospital scene on the table with cloudy eyes, and then pointed to the five statues at the entrance of the hospital.
"The story officially begins, and there are many ways to end the story. It depends on your exploration and discovery. But now, writers, sailors, merchants' daughters, noble girls and foreign baronesses have come to the door of the hospital and found iron The door was tied with iron chains and fastened with locks.
You cannot break gates or locks, for you are only explorers, not robbers. So, please find your way into the hospital now. Please speak... ”
Because everyone has read the rule book, they also know what the so-called speech means. The five people looked at the scenery on the table quietly for a while, and found that there was a thin layer of white mist around the scenery at some point. This is the mist from the steam machine under the table rising above the table, but in reality, the mist also exists in that hospital.
"Can the explorers get out of here now and go home and sleep?"
Hathaway was the first to ask.
"Of course not. This is an escape game, which is not allowed."
Mr. Corpse replied.
"Then can we climb over the wall and go in?"
Mr. Hood was the second to ask, "I don't think the wall is very high."
"The writer and the sailor can, but the other three ladies in skirts (note) can't. Of course, if you don't mind acting separately..."
"No, we will not separate."
Mr. White Cat spoke his mind for everyone, and then took his own silver metal, which is the character card, and said:
"I am manipulating my childhood playmate, a sailor. In his life experience, he has the ability of [pathfinding]."
Then he picked up the two heavy dice.
"Your sailor's [Pathfinding] ability has a value of 50. If you throw a value below 50, you can successfully find the way to enter."
Mr. Corpse looked at him and said that although this person looked like a corpse, he was still able to touch his chin. Jenkins only felt a chill.
The dice is rolled and the value is 63. The statue representing the sailor on the chessboard walked around the door a few times as if it was alive, and finally came back, standing at the door and scratching its head and ears. Of course, the other four statues are dead objects in fixed poses.
Mr. White Cat clicked his lips and said nothing.
"My former admirer, the merchant's daughter also has the ability to find ways."
Mr. Hood bends down to pick up the dice, but the merchant's daughter has even lower pathfinding abilities, and he also fails.
The statue representing the merchant's daughter stayed at the door and looked around. This is the second statue that came alive.
"It's a pity, this time it was only a little bit close. Just to remind you, don't stay outside for a long time, there are wild beasts in the wild at night."
Mr. Corpse spoke in a chilling voice. As soon as the words fell, Hathaway's voice sounded:
"My manipulative character, Jenkins Williams..."
"He has no wayfinding ability."
Mr. Corpse pointed out that he seemed to know the specific content of the character cards in everyone's hands.
"Yes, he has no pathfinding ability, but according to this character card, he usually takes his cat chocolate with him when he travels."
Everyone looked at Miss Bailing, wondering what she would say.
"Since the cat also followed Zhan... also followed William, can I manipulate William to order the cat to find the way? On William's character card, there is a clear [Train the cat] ability."
After a few seconds of silence, Mr. Corpse nodded silently. On the table, a wooden carved kitten sprang out from the white mist on the edge of the table. When it came into contact with the Jenkins wood carving at the entrance of the hospital, the wood carving also came to life.
Lying on the table with real chocolate, staring at the scene with wide eyes.
The two wooden sculptures played intimately for a while, and Hathaway rolled two dice.
"Williamette's cat training ability is... 99."
she said so.
Jenkins guessed in his heart that probably most of the people present would guess whether he had an improper relationship with the cat. He felt that he had been wronged, and his ability to train cats should not be so strong.
This special ability is written on the character card, and Jenkins is really worried about how many secrets he has on that character card.
"Although the cat training is successful, William's cat may not be able to find another entrance, so you still need to roll a value for his luck."
Mr. Corpse reminded, and then said: "And William's luck value is extremely low, only 3."
Of course Hathaway knew this too, but she still silently rolled the dice, and the result happened to be 03.
Jenkins heard her visibly sigh, as well as the murmured congratulations of her friends. He didn't know what to say anymore, he could only watch the five wooden sculptures that had come alive followed the wooden sculptured cat wagging its tail, and left the door that couldn't be opened.
In the wild grass, I walked along the rusty iron fence for a while, and I saw a gap. Without the command of the players, a group of five people and one cat entered the courtyard of the hospital.
"Five adventurous friends entered the hospital through the gap in the fence, and were frightened by the desolate and eerie atmosphere in the hospital. From now on, the noble girl and the merchant's daughter, all the results of throwing abilities will automatically increase by 10. If you throw Numbers over 100 and the story will have accidents."
Mr. Corpse announced that Jenkins and Mr. Hood exchanged glances, and it was the two of them who were unlucky this time.
Before Mr. Corpse announced the direction of the next story, Mr. White Cat, who finally experienced some gameplay, spoke in advance, which bought some time for everyone:
"Now that you have entered the hospital, the five friends might as well discuss what you know about the hospital. I think since you have come here to take risks, you will more or less look for some information in advance."
What he said reminded everyone at once, so Miss Magic first said:
"My friend ten years ago, although she is a foreign countess, has lived in Nolan for many years. She probably knows some history around Nolan."
Mr. Corpse glanced at Mr. White Cat and nodded:
"The character card didn't write about this, but it seems to be judged as real. In this case, the character card has the ability to be updated."
The hidden compartment on everyone's left was opened again, and there was indeed a lot more content on the newly-appeared silver metal sheet.
PS: Don’t complain about why wearing a skirt is risky. If you have any doubts, you can search for information by yourself with [Western women] and [pants].
Ling: Although it seems to be a COC running group, the rules are not the same at all, so don't take your seat and say "why do you want to do this, it's not right here" or something like that.
