However, [Esmore's Boat] is just a speedboat that can carry up to eight people. Although it can never capsize and can reach a speed of 90 knots, the yacht itself has nothing to protect it from the wind. Where it rains.
In addition, the current environment is harsh, the visibility is frighteningly poor, and there are no guiding signs in this pitch-black sea. It is very possible to plunge into some extremely dangerous sea areas.
In fact, in the final analysis, there is no absolute safety in either choice, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Maybe ordinary people would still struggle with this choice, but Bai Zhi was not an ordinary person.
After taking out the [Esmore's Boat], a rather exquisite handmade model, Bai Zhi summoned the shadow puppet.
—Only children will do multiple-choice questions, and adults will have all the choices.
As his second clone, the shadow puppet's attributes are only 1/2 of his personal attributes, and it also has the side effect of doubling any consumption, but all the equipment, props, and skills on his body share the same perspective. Shadow puppets can also be used.
To a certain extent, it is not an exaggeration to call the shadow puppet his second clone. It is not difficult for him to do two things at once, not to mention that it is just controlling the shadow puppet to sail the ship.
And when he is in danger, he can switch positions with the shadow puppet at any time, which is nothing more than a life-saving skill.
"I don't know if there are any other players on this yacht..."
Watching the [Esmore's Boat] disappear into the darkness, Bai Zhi turned around and walked towards the hatch of the yacht.
The dilapidated yacht he is staying in has been turned off. It is completely drifting with the current. However, there are faint lights on the first and second floors. It is not known if any players have entered it before him. .
Although the system teleports players randomly, it is impossible to teleport players to the bottom of the sea as soon as they arrive. Since he was teleported to the deck of this dilapidated yacht, then there should also be players who will be teleported to the interior of this yacht. right.
The hatch was open, and the inside was in a mess due to heavy rain and sea water. Those expensive sofas were soaked in sea water. The hull of the ship swayed greatly with the waves from time to time, and everything inside seemed extremely dark.
After walking through several rooms that seemed to be entertainment rooms, bars, fitness rooms, medical rooms, etc., the previous messy and soaked situation disappeared.
Calculating the length, he had already reached the middle of this floor. Everything he passed was dark and messy. Tables, chairs and coffee tables fell into a ball on the ground, but the sea water could no longer affect this place.
Along the way, he didn't see anyone, not even a body.
"Let's change our clothes first."
After summoning several shadow guards and letting them explore the surroundings at will, Bai Zhi stopped in a relatively intact room and planned to change out of his soaked clothes.
Although his physical attributes have reached more than 20 points, after wearing such soaked clothes for a long time, his own heat is still being lost, and he has begun to feel cold.
For a change of clothes, players will more or less prepare several sets of clothes in their backpacks, and Bai Zhi is no exception.
But just as he was taking off his soaked coat and throwing it aside, he suddenly saw a bunch of ants on the coffee table nearby.
…wait, ants
Just as Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, the ants on the coffee table suddenly turned into green-skinned villains one by one, and then jumped off the coffee table in a hurry.
At the same time, the floor under Bai Zhi's feet suddenly turned into a deep sea. There were even waves on this small sea surface. The cloth on the sofa turned into water plants. In the waves, water plants and water plants appeared. aquatic plants…
The transition was extremely sudden. When Bai Zhi saw the nest of ants on the table turn into a green-skinned man and start diving, his whole body suddenly disappeared, and then he unconsciously Fell into the cold water.
Darkness struck instantly.
Volume 1 The Gap between Imagination and Reality: Chapter 729 Chapter 720 Trap Room? Capitalist’s Rope
"What the hell is this..."
Seeing the shadow guard in the room in front of him sinking into the water and being dragged straight into the dark seabed by the green-skinned villains, Bai Zhi couldn't help but frown slightly.
—The moment he fell into the water, he exchanged places with a certain shadow guard.
The Shadow Guard does not have a so-called entity. For the Shadow Guard who can escape into the shadows at any time, it should not be too difficult to escape from the water. However, at the moment, the Shadow Guard who takes his place is being destroyed by the water. Thousands of green-skinned villains were dragged down bit by bit to the bottom of the sea.
In just a few seconds, he could no longer see the shadow guard underwater, and then five or six seconds later, the shadow guard was declared dead in his perception.
After that, dense green-skinned villains appeared on the water. These unknown ghosts all raised their heads and looked directly at him standing at the door.
The night vision ability brought by Pluto to Bai Zhi allowed him to clearly see the whole picture of these little green-skinned people. Except for their small size and the fact that their exposed skin is all green, they are basically no different from humans. .
If you roughly count them, the number of these densely packed green-skinned villains floating on the water exceeds tens of thousands.
Although Bai Zhi didn't have trypophobia, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened when he saw all these ghosts looking at him.
After staring at each other for a moment, these green-skinned villains slowly sank to the bottom of the sea. After the last green-skinned villain disappeared from the sea, the room in front of them suddenly returned to its original state.
"Yeah, it looks like this room is inaccessible."
Shaking his head slightly, Bai Zhi had no idea of entering the room in front of him again.
After hastily changing the remaining clothes in the corridor, Bai Zhi started looking for other clues on the yacht.
Because he had learned from the past, Bai Zhi did not enter any room again, and all the shadow guards were assigned to explore the way. For this purpose, there were more than a dozen shadow guards who became heroes.
However, Bai Zhi didn't feel bad about this. Anyway, he was in a dark environment now and had plenty of spiritual energy. He could just continue to summon if it was a big deal.
Shadow guards are destined to die. They may be heavier than Mount Tai or as light as a feather, and the sacrifices of those Shadow Guards are as heavy as Mount Tai.
The death of these shadow guards came from the various strange traps hidden in the room. Just like before, the floor turned into sea water, and one of the countless green-skinned villains dragged you into the deep sea.
Some were swallowed whole by the suddenly protruding sofa, some were dragged under the bed by the hands stretched out from under the bed, and some were violently wrapped in by the opened wardrobe... There were all sorts of strange things, and each one died more miserably than the last. , Bai Zhi felt that he could publish an issue of Shadow Guard's 1,000 ways to die.
And at the 10th minute of the search, he found a body in a room that seemed to be a guest room.
… perhaps
Standing at the door of the room, Bai Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at the figure in the middle of the room with his neck tied by a suspended rope and hanging in mid-air.
The figure hanging in mid-air is a male, about 20 years old. His closed eyes are hanging motionless in the air. There are various bite wounds all over his body, and there is blood. A small pool formed under him
In addition, there was a rope tightly tied around the opponent's neck, dragging him in mid-air, but the other end of the rope was empty and without any support.
Bai Zhi has seen this kind of trap before. Bai Zhi calls it the capitalist's rope. This kind of rope hidden in the room will spontaneously hang up people who walk into the room.
At the same time, as time goes by, the rope will shrink tighter and tighter until the person is strangled to death.
But now based on the situation of the corpse in front of him, and assuming that the person being hung is dead, the rope will most likely not be tightened, otherwise what he sees now should be a headless corpse...
Right now, a shadow guard is still hanging in a certain room. The shadow guard does not need to breathe, so this kind of trap is theoretically invalid for the shadow guard, but it is different from the previous situation of the green-skinned villains. Similarly, these trap-type ghost stories that exist in various rooms generally have certain characteristics. Once trapped by this rope, you cannot break free by your own strength.
Therefore, it is precisely for this reason that the shadow guard who is still hanging in a certain room cannot run away even if he wants to. He can only wait in agony for himself to be slowly strangled to death before he can be liberated.
The hanging corpse in the room in front of him was the first human trace he found... or it couldn't be called a corpse.
Because the injuries on the opponent's body are slowly healing over time, and some places have even formed scabs.
In addition, based on the dust and footprints on the ground, it can be judged that the guy in front of him was hung up by the rope voluntarily, because the footprints on the floor were quite neat, and there were no signs of struggle on the other person's body.
Even the shadow guard struggled subconsciously when the rope was suddenly tied around his neck. How could the other party not struggle at all? Unless this is intentional.
Combining the current situation of the other party, Bai Zhi quickly came to a more reasonable inference in his mind.
The other party was also a player, and had arrived on the yacht before him, and then suffered a huge loss in those trap rooms and was covered in bruises.
As a last resort, the other party chose to step into this room and let the rope wrap around his neck to hang him in mid-air, waiting for the arrival and rescue of other players.
As for the reason why the other party did this, Bai Zhi guessed that the other party may have some kind of suspended animation skill, which can slowly restore his own injuries in the state of death.
Details like these can be observed.
Standing at the door of the room for about a minute, Bai Zhi had already finished reasoning about the causes and consequences of these things.
Although the opponent looked like a corpse now, Bai Zhi was very sure that the opponent was definitely not dead. After all, as a high-end player, he had to learn to observe every detail.
—Tearing off the note that was nailed to the door frame on the side of the room, Bai Zhi nodded with satisfaction.
On this note, the cause and effect were written in detail.
In order to prevent himself from being ignored as a corpse by subsequent players, the guy in the room deliberately wrote a note explaining his situation and nailed it to the door frame before entering the room. .
"If you want to save people..."
After thinking for a while, Bai Zhi sent a shadow guard into the room.
Ever since, more than ten seconds later, there was another hanging figure in the room.
Volume 1 The Gap between Virtual and Real: Chapter 730 Chapter 721 The Sound of Footsteps
Stormy night at sea.
"Can it still be like this..."
Looking at the shadow guard who was hung up in the same way, Bai Zhi suddenly felt a toothache.
I originally thought that there was only one capitalist's rope in the room, so the latter would not be attacked when entering. But just like who said you can't stab someone without a gun head, who said a rope can only hang one person
He didn't bother to care about the shadow guard who was also hung up before because he wanted to seize the time to explore and was too lazy to waste time on such trivial matters. But now, as the first player he met on this yacht, the other party was still It is very necessary to communicate.
After casually instructing the suspended shadow guard in the room to act like a fish out of water, Bai Zhi took out the [Sheng Zai] from his backpack.
Originally, [Sheng Zai] should be [Holy Judgment]. After all, what is [Sheng Zai] called? Bai Zhi later made a special call to a money-grubbing puppet master about this matter, and received a result that left him speechless.
—Due to the rush of work, the other party accidentally mixed up the words Zai and Cai when naming it.
But things like this are actually harmless.
Compared with [Magic Type], the absolutely silent special effect of [Saint Zai] can play a better role at this time. With the [Gun Fighting Technique] given to him by Mu Qianse, plus [Pluto]'s As for the auxiliary effect, he can now COS a sharpshooter.
"When external forces intervene, is the rope just an ordinary rope?"
Looking at the rope in front of him that was broken by him after just two shots, Bai Zhi looked thoughtful.
On this level of the main deck of the yacht, most rooms are equipped with such deadly traps. I don't know if the same is true on other levels.
He is the best mine-laying tool with Shadow Guard. Other players do not have such convenient skills as him. Once they accidentally fall into a certain room, they will inevitably have to pay a certain price to escape from it.
-Otherwise, this guy wouldn't be so bruised and bruised.
"Tsk, you know it's not that simple, automatic recovery? Even a dead person has to be hung up. It is indeed a capitalist's rope..."
Seeing the rope in front of him quickly recover, and then start to put the rope around the guy's neck, Bai Zhi smacked his lips in displeasure, and Bai Zhi followed up with a few more shots to shatter the rope.
At the same time, a shadow appeared under the guy, and a pair of hands stretched out and dragged him into the shadow.
After the unfortunate guy was taken out of the room by the shadow guard, the rope suddenly stopped.
About a minute or two later, the player who was dragged to the corner of the corridor woke up from his previous state of suspended animation after coughing violently.
"Ahem...thank you."
After sitting up from the ground with some reluctance, the player looked at Bai Zhi standing next to him. He breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him.
"When the road is rough, you will draw your sword to help. Helping others is the foundation of life."
Shaking his head slightly and playing with the [Saint Zai] in his hand, Bai Zhi answered casually.
"By the way, speaking of which, why did you hide in the room?"
He asked this question for no reason, because knowing that there were traps in the room, staying in the corridor was the safest option. After all, the traps in the room would not be chased out of the room.
Unless there was something more dangerous outside the room than inside the room, but he didn't find anything along the way.
"Yes, that's right... We need to get out of here quickly, I can't be found by that thing..."
Bai Zhi's words seemed to awaken some horrific memories in his heart. The player's complexion suddenly turned pale. He ignored his broken body and struggled to get up from the ground using his hands and feet.
It's just that the injuries on his body were too serious. Even though he had partially recovered before, he couldn't stand up at all now. As soon as he got up, his feet staggered and he fell to the ground.
"Speak clearly, what is looking for you?"
Looking at the player sitting on the ground in front of him, Bai Zhi frowned slightly.
"If you want to survive, then keep the most basic calm for me first, otherwise I won't bother to care about you."
He could tell that the other party's spirit seemed to have been greatly stimulated, so much so that he now had a conditioned reflex of being in a state of panic.
Listening to the other party's tone, it seemed that something was looking for him, and he couldn't be found by that thing. However, he and the shadow guard had been searching in the cabin on this floor for about 15 minutes. In this Apart from the trap rooms, nothing else was found during the process.
"I don't know... I haven't seen it at all..."
Although the player in front of him finally calmed down a little because of his words, there was still a trace of inexplicable fear in the other person's words.
"I don't know what that thing is at all, but it's been looking for me. If I'm found by it... footsteps... yes, footsteps, don't get caught up in the footsteps, otherwise you won't get caught up in it. I can't get rid of this nightmare..."
"Start from the beginning."
Feeling a little headache, Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead, and Bai Zhi squatted down next to the other party.
"Judging from the note you left before, you are also a player who participated in this final copy, right? What on earth are you..."
"Wait, what note?"
Before Bai Zhi could finish his sentence, the player in front of him interrupted him with a pale face.
"I never left any note at all... How could I be in the mood to leave you a note when I'm about to die like this? Where did you see the note!?"
