Because except for the stairwell, the entrances to the other three places are all corridors more than ten meters long. Therefore, standing at the door, for a while, it is not possible to tell whether what is in front of you is the accommodation area or something else. Two areas.
"Let's put a mark on the key, but don't trust the mark on the key too much... The seven days seem to have just begun, right?"
After looking at the circular hall, Bai Zhi felt a little headache and stretched out his hand to press his forehead.
A survival mission of this type is fine at the beginning, but the danger increases day by day. At the last moment, more than a dozen abnormal events may hit you in a row. This is why players need to The reason for working together is because if they don't survive as a team, their final chance of survival is really pitiful.
It would be easy to say if this mission was a pure survival mission, but the problem is that this mission is not just a pure survival mission. Among the mission requirements, there is also a requirement for them to find out the secret of this apartment.
And what secrets are hidden in this apartment with a weird layout and many rules
… … … … … … … … … …
After this small episode, everyone returned to the accommodation area. For the sake of convenience, everyone squeezed into room 501, which was Shenwu Tianxie's room.
The layout of his room is basically the same as that of Bai Zhi's, including a single bed, desk, computer, wardrobe, refrigerator, kitchen, shoe cabinet and slippers in the entrance, posters on the wall, and a wall clock hanging above the wardrobe. The quilts are all brand new... exactly the same.
The food in the refrigerator is sufficient and fresh, and the gas, knives and utensils are all available. There are several charging ports in the room, but there are no light switches.
While Ye Owl, Zheng Gu and Ming were busy in the kitchen, Bai Zhi, Meng Qi, Shen Wu Tian Xie all sat together on the floor with solemn expressions, and then Playing cards with a serious face...
It has to be said that Night Owl, Zheng Gu and Ming are quite good at cooking. Within about half an hour, a sumptuous breakfast was cooked for them.
Since there is no dining table in this small single room, there is only one chair in front of the desk, so it is used as a desk instead.
"What's the next plan?"
Due to Bai Zhi's previous performance, after filling his stomach, Zhenggu Heming turned to him and asked.
"We walked around this apartment together before. Where do you think the possible danger points are?"
"Let's go to the entertainment area. I see there are a lot of game consoles, billiard halls, movie halls and so on. It's still early anyway. Isn't it just morning?"
Before Bai Zhi could open his mouth and put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, Meng Qixia was the first to speak enthusiastically.
"Now is the first day of seven days. As long as we can abide by the rules, there shouldn't be too much danger. Let me tell you, I am very good at playing billiards, Prince Snooker!!"
Bai Zhi curled his lips and showed no intention of interrupting. He turned his head and glanced at the clock. According to the pointer on the clock, the current time should be 8:55 in the morning, which is indeed...
A certain thought vaguely flashed through his mind, and Bai Zhi's expression suddenly changed.
—Perhaps due to some inertia of thinking, he found that he might have overlooked a crucial factor.
"Hurry, everyone go back to your rooms and lock the doors. Who told you that it's morning now!?"
Thinking of this, Bai Zhi stood up from the ground and spoke to everyone in a hurry.
"Remember, no matter what happens outside the door or someone knocks on the door, don't pay attention to it. Wait until after 11 o'clock!!!"
While speaking hurriedly, Bai Zhi pulled the confused night owl towards the door.
"If after 11 o'clock... no, just to be on the safe side, if the lights haven't gone out after 11:30, we will meet in the corridor outside the door!!"
Volume One: The Gap between Virtuality and Reality: Chapter 145 Chapter 142 Displaced Time
Thinking inertia is a very scary thing.
In this airtight apartment building, is there anything that can be used to directly judge whether it is morning or evening
No.
The only thing that can be used as a basis for judgment is the "Instructions for Apartment Residents" written above about the lights-out rules in this apartment... The lights-out time is after 11 o'clock every night.
Although there is a clock hanging in every room, the clock can only show the time at that time. How do you know whether it is 8:50 in the morning or 8:50 in the evening
When Bai Zhi was first investigating the entire room, the time displayed on the computer was 7:40. In addition, he was originally teleported in in the morning. Due to the inertia of thinking, most people would naturally not Doubt too much about time.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand in everything, just be afraid of the unexpected.
Although the players entered this mission in the morning, who decided that the time here is morning
What if the time format displayed on the computer is actually 12-hour format? What if it's not actually morning now, but the exact time is actually evening
Thinking inertia is a very scary thing.
[Instructions for Apartment Residents] It is written above that after 9 p.m., each resident should stay in his room and lock the door, although it does not say that he should stay outside his room under such circumstances. The consequences, but thinking about it, it will definitely not be a good encounter.
Because the refrigerator was full of fresh ingredients, coupled with everyone's inertia of thinking, Bai Zhi still ignored several crucial factors.
… Like a brand new bedding, basically the same room layout.
This is the role-playing mode. The players are replacing the residents who originally lived in this apartment. They have brand new bedding and basically the same room layout. This means that these residents they acquired should also be living in this apartment for the first time. This apartment...or this floor.
After all, everyone's living habits are different. The layout of the room is exactly the same, the same decoration, the same architecture, which is enough to fully illustrate this point.
If it hadn't been for their players to enter, the people they played would have slept until dawn. In this way, the refrigerator full of ingredients could also be explained.
-Bai Zhi felt that he had made a big mistake this time.
Because if his own thinking inertia was not causing trouble, he should have tried the fitness room a little bit when he was at the entertainment venue. This can also be used to determine whether the specific time is morning or night.
After all, it is written in [Instructions for Apartment Residents] that the fitness room is only open from 9 am to 3 pm.
Again, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. In this mysterious apartment, facing unknown and mysterious strange stories, players cannot tolerate any sloppiness.
Bai Zhi's reaction was very quick. Although he was not completely sure of his speculation, the most important thing was to avoid the greatest risk as much as possible.
The most insidious aspect of the rules is that residents must return to their rooms after 9 p.m., but the lights are turned off at 11 p.m.
If Bai Zhi's conjecture is correct, if they really follow Meng Qi's suggestion and go to the entertainment area, they will inevitably encounter all kinds of strange things in these two hours.
If they still haven't realized the key factors and return to the room in time before the lights go out, when the lights go out and their eyes are dark, they are likely to suffer casualties on the first day... Maybe this is normal for this mission. process
They had tested it before in the stairwell. The light of the flashlight could not penetrate the darkness at all. The only ones that could barely provide lighting in the dark environment were some equipment or skills with built-in lighting effects.
In the dark environment of the apartment after the lights are turned off, how are they going to fight against those weird things who don't know where they are hiding
Take Bai Zhi as an example. Among the things he currently carries, the only thing that can barely illuminate the darkness is the evil-proof charm that automatically burns and is passively triggered.
If he could have a [Plant Card? Street Lamp Flower], he might be able to provide light in a dark environment, but he doesn't. It has to be said that this is a rather sad fact.
-Shadowguard can thrive in a dark environment, but he cannot. After all, he is extremely short of mana.
The time now is 8:55, and there are still five minutes until nine o'clock. Five minutes seems to be enough time for everyone to enter their rooms, but in fact it cannot be calculated like this. .
Not to mention the ten-meter-long dark passage leading to each room. In an extremely dark environment where flashlights and general lighting cannot provide illumination, you want to correctly find the door keyhole and use six Trying out the key to your room among the keys is not an easy task.
Previously, Shenwu Tianxie spent a lot of time trying to find the key to his room. After all, for players of their level, who would specifically collect props that can shine
Of course, if you can roll small fireballs and are a magician and can illuminate, that's fine too.
Room number [501] is occupied by Shenwu Tianxie, room number [502] is occupied by Mengqixia, room number [503] is occupied by Bai Zhi, room number [504] is occupied by Night Owl, and room number [505] is occupied by Night Owl. The house is inhabited by zither, drums and music.
"How about it, can you open the door? If not, bring this with you."
Without any explanation, Bai Zhisai gave Night Owl a few evil charms.
"If these talismans burn, you will be safe for the time being. Then remember to take this time to find the key, open the door and enter the room, and then lock the door."
"...I'll be fine."
After looking at the evil-proof charms in his hand, Night Owl raised his head and looked at him seriously after being stunned for a moment.
"Don't worry, I'm not just a hindrance."
"Now that I have said so much, who was it that kept holding on to my clothes before?"
Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi pushed the other person angrily.
"Why are you still standing here stupidly? Hurry up and enter the room early to be safe. If the lights are not turned off by 11 o'clock, remember to wait until 11:30 before coming out."
"But I don't think it's necessary to stay for such a long time. I just need to make sure the network..."
"Really? Then let me give you some advice."
Bai Zhi glanced at her.
"I suspect the network is a trap. You'd better not move."
Volume One: The Gap between Virtual and Real: Chapter 146 Chapter 143 [Snake]
In survival missions, players will face risks at all times.
Is it absolutely safe inside the room
Obviously, if the room is safe enough, then these seven days will be a very easy time to spend. After all, you just need to stay in the room and not go out.
So there is risk inside the room, but the risk is lower than outside the room... So where does the biggest risk in the room come from
After a little thought, Bai Zhi placed the target on the laptop that everyone has in their room. It's not that there are no suspicious presences in other places, but that the laptop will be connected to the Internet after nine o'clock. The computer is the most suspicious.
Bai Zhi was not too worried about the other players, but as for the night owl, he knew that the other player was not only timid, but also extremely afraid of the dark, so a kind reminder was very necessary.
After confirming that the other party had entered the room, Bai Zhi entered his room before nine o'clock arrived. At the same time, before he entered his room and locked the door, he summoned a shadow guard. Left outside the door.
Just after he entered the door and looked at the layout of the room in front of him, his expression suddenly sank slightly.
—During the time he left the room, there were certain entities that were active in his room.
Bai Zhi's memory is quite good. Although everything in front of him does not seem to be much different from before he left, if you observe carefully, you can clearly find that there are too many changes.
The angle formed by the two slippers placed at the door has changed from 60 degrees to 45 degrees. The mouse of the laptop on the desk is slightly tilted to the right, and the pillow that was originally turned down has become upright... It can be observed Too many details have been changed.
And the thing that concerned him the most...
Putting on his slippers, Bai Zhi walked to the bed and raised his head to look at the three posters on the wall.
These are three character posters posted here by someone unknown. They are a man dressed as a cowboy standing on the street leaning against the wall, holding his hat in his hand, and a man sitting in front of the bar with one hand on his chin and his head slightly lowered. A girl drinking wine, and a blond beauty wearing sunglasses and a swimsuit lying on a lounge chair to sunbathe in the bright sunshine.
When he checked the room before, although he had only glanced at these posters briefly, the contents on the paintings had already been remembered in his mind.
During the time he went out and came back, these three posters obviously changed slightly.
The man standing on the side of the street, leaning against the wall, holding his hat in his hand, raised his head slightly to reveal his chin. The girl sitting in front of the bar with her head slightly lowered and drinking turned her eyes toward him, and the blond girl was lying on the lounge chair basking in the sun. The beauty's head tilted slightly towards him... It was as if the character on the poster came to life.
"These three posters..."
After thinking for a while, Bai Zhi stood up on the bed, trying to see if he could take off the three posters that were stuck on the wall.
But it was a pity that the poster seemed to be firmly printed on the wall, and he couldn't find any cracks that could be removed.
He originally thought about destroying these three posters with a knife or marker, but after a moment of thinking and considering that he might anger the other party, Bai Zhi temporarily gave up the idea.
Looking back at the clock hanging on the wall, Bai Zhi came to the desk and sat down. The computer screen in front of him was densely packed with various games.
Bai Zhi just put his hand on the mouse, and an interface popped up on the computer screen in front of him.
[game rules]
[①: From the moment your hand touches the mouse, you must complete any game before you can exit.]
[②: Each game has a unified judging standard, failure, pass, clearance. No basic points will be awarded if you fail, you will get one point if you pass, and you will get two points if you clear the level. Each game comes with points and additional rewards are calculated separately.]
[③: During the game, be sure to abide by the game rules. Violation of the game rules will be directly regarded as failure.]
[④: The network opening time is from 9 pm to 7 am. The game is not allowed during the rest of the time. If the game is not completed after the network opening period, it will be directly judged as a failure.]
[Wish you a happy trip~]
"I knew it...but it feels like the secrets of this villa are becoming more and more mind-numbing."
Feeling a slight toothache, Bai Zhi reached out and scratched his hair. He clicked on the pop-up game rules prompt, and then observed the densely packed game icons on the desktop screen.
These games on the computer screen are diverse, ranging from familiar mini-games such as [Mine Sweeper], [FreeCell], [Spider Solitaire], [Tetris], [Snake], etc., to [PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds], [Heroes] Alliance], [Genshin Impact] and other large-scale multiplayer online games are all available.
Of course, in addition to these things he knows, there are quite a few things he doesn't know, such as [Falling in Love with Monsters], [Beautiful Girl Wanhua Mirror], [Nineteenth Level of Hell], [Desolate Village Apartment], etc. Just looking at the name reveals a rather ominous atmosphere to the game.
"… Do I have to complete a game?"
After thinking for a while, out of a cautious attitude, Bai Zhi clicked on the mini game [Snake].
Greedy Snake, as the name suggests, is a mobile phone pixel game in which a snake continuously eats various light spots and then makes its body longer. Even Bai Zhi doesn't usually play games, but for this enduring game He still knows about the antique games.
But what made him feel strange was that after he clicked on the game, the computer screen in front of him turned completely black, and then, a one-hour countdown popped up on it.
"What the hell, isn't this a greedy snake? Where's the snake?"
Looking at the one-hour countdown that started running on the computer screen in front of him, Bai Zhi couldn't help but look a little dumbfounded.
At this moment, a sharp pain came from his hand. When Bai Zhi lowered his head in shock, he saw a small snake about the length of his little finger and the thickness of his index finger emerging from his own body. It drilled through the back of the hand, taking away a piece of flesh at the same time.
Bai Zhi quickly stood up from the chair and hid in the distance. He held his bloody hand and looked at the little snake floating in the air over there. Maybe it was because it had swallowed a piece of his flesh just now. This little snake The snake's body has grown from the little finger to the length of the middle finger, and it is swimming leisurely in mid-air.
"Snake... Is it true that I am the one being eaten?"
