Uncle Clown is the most popular NPC in the amusement park. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he was warmly welcomed by the audience.
He doesn't speak, only expresses himself with body language. He came out with a big bag full of various small toys.
He first took out a cute bear doll and gestured to everyone. All the children in the audience were excited, shouting "Give it to me" excitedly.
Uncle Clown showed a smug smile and threw the bear doll into the auditorium.
Then it was picked up by an awakened person.
His parents' faces changed drastically: "Baby, don't you want this one? Go out and mom and dad will buy you better ones."
"But I like it." The awakened baby was unmoved, and happily played with the bear doll.
The faces of the remaining players turned gloomy in an instant, and they were all on guard, but they couldn't guard against this clown. When they were outside, they spent a lot of effort to persuade the little ancestor not to use those balloons and windmills, but now this bear doll is hard to persuade.
The point is, the clown brought a whole bag of toys!
Then came the children's carnival. Uncle Clown randomly threw a few toys out, and then said that the remaining toys could not be given away easily. He lit a fire hoop, then jumped through it to demonstrate.
He turned his head to look at the audience and pointed to the ring of fire, the meaning was obvious. You have to jump through the fire hoop to get the doll reward.
This is just fucking shit, players don't want dolls in the first place, and now they have to jump through hoops to give them dolls. They wish they could not get the doll, how could they be willing to jump this dangerous hoop of fire.
However, the child wants it.
"Dad, I want a doll." An awakened baby said.
His father suddenly broke out in cold sweat: "Let mom go, dad is too fat to jump over."
He is indeed stronger, and it is difficult for him to jump through the fire hoop. But after saying this, he obviously offended the female players in the same group. The female player's face was ugly, and she said angrily: "How can mom jump through a fire hoop? Your father is so good, he can do it if he goes."
The awakened baby looked at his father and then at his mother, pouted unhappily, finally stood up with a snort, and ran to the stage: "I'll go by myself!"
"Come back!" The two were terrified for an instant, and rushed up to stop the child.
Uncle Clown was overjoyed when he saw someone coming up. He pulled the brave father to the front of the fire circle and motioned him to jump quickly.
"Come on, Dad!" The awakened applauded happily, "I want a bear doll too!"
His father couldn't get off the tiger, and he didn't move for a long time. This circle of fire was smaller than what he saw offstage, it was difficult to jump over. This fire also looks weird, if it touches even a little bit, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Anyway, he just didn't want to dance.
Uncle Clown suddenly showed an evil smile, and while the player was not paying attention, he pushed hard. The player was terrified, watching helplessly as his upper body successfully passed through the fire circle, but his lower body was ignited by the flames.
"Ah!!!" The player screamed, and turned into a Pyroman, scurrying around on the stage and rolling all over the floor, trying to fill the fire.
All the children burst out laughing, "He's so funny!"
Ye Xu didn't smile, but looked at it with a sullen face, thinking that this copy is really sick, even worse than sister Xuan's. Anyway, Sister Xuan is just tossing people a little bit, and she likes to find another way. This is good, let the NPC watch the player's "monkey show".
It is also due to the bad character of this player that he cannot become an awakener. Otherwise, if he knows the truth in the future, he will definitely find out the designer of the dungeon and deal with it severely.
Father Ye and Mother Ye looked at their cub worriedly, and finally Father Ye reached out and covered Ye Xu's eyes: "Baby, don't look at this."
Ye Xu was obedient, didn't lose his temper, and said softly, "Mom and Dad don't look at it either." Although it doesn't matter whether he looks at it or not, with his perception skills God's perspective, he still sees everything.
"Okay, mom and dad don't watch either." Father Ye closed his eyes, and Mother Ye covered her own eyes.
They trust the baby very much, and they don't worry about whether not watching will cause any bad things. Ye Xu heard the new message alert from the chat system and opened the map channel.
[Map] Han Han: Who wrote this copy
[Map] Ye Ye: I don't know.
[Map] Lin Lin: It doesn't look like our style, at least this clown doesn't act like one.
Everyone discussed for a long time without discussing anything, and finally Jiang Yuexuan spoke and pointed out the direction.
[Map] Xuanxuan: It should be an outsider.
She is usually engaged in script creation, knows many colleagues, and knows the styles of various "screenwriters" very well. Generally, only the Awakened who came over from the seven-day game will have a strange style of painting.
Although they tried their best to imitate the style of the escape game, and strived to make the dungeon that was consistent with the style of the serious escape local dungeon, there would always be some awkward places.
Jiang Yuexuan didn't like some of the foreign colleagues very much, saying that those people came to write scripts for escape games just to challenge themselves, and wanted to master some script writing skills of different styles, and they didn't really help at all. In other words, they have no sincerity at all, and they are just using this opportunity to improve themselves.
Compared with other foreign screenwriters with sincerity and mixed interests, these screenwriters are very self-indulgent. The general direction is the same as yours, and the details are according to your own preferences, but sometimes their preferences are quite irritating.
Just like this, the player was burned to death, and he made the NPC watch the show with a smile, which is no different from psychological distortion. It’s fine if it’s a purely automatic dungeon. There are awakeners in this dungeon, and the awakeners and NPCs are in the same camp. Faced with this scene, there is always an uncomfortable sense of substitution, as if your good partner has lost his humanity.
[Map] Xuanxuan: Their own game has such an annoying style of painting, so when they make dungeons, they also like to bully others, and they don't let others feel happy when they are unhappy. It's okay, I have already reported it, and a dungeon repairer will come to check and adjust later.
However, whether it is the screenwriter, the dungeon overhauler, or the dungeon manager, they are all coolies who work for Tong Dad to earn a meager contribution value. It's just that screenwriting can still be regarded as a personal hobby at any rate, and the rest is pure coolie.
Now that the report has been made, everyone will not say anything, just bear with it for a while, and it will pass soon.
The awakened baby was rewarded with a bear doll, but because of the applause of the NPC, he didn't like the doll so much. After getting it, I hugged it casually, and I was a little disgusted.
The clown show was going on in an orderly manner, and NPC parents were constantly pulled up to jump through the fire hoop. When jumping through the fire hoop was replaced by the second project, another awakened baby urged the parents to try it.
But this time, the parents completed the challenge without any risk and won back the bear doll for the child.
The clown seemed very dissatisfied, and immediately asked someone to replace this "no difficulty" challenge, and the third item was replaced.
According to this process, the clown didn't start the formal performance until after the clown gave away the doll in his hand.
Ye Xu yawned. Compared to some clown performances he had seen, this performance was really boring. I don't know when I will reach the climax, just because of this difficulty, it won't be pushed by the broadcast.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Xu suddenly smelled smoke. He immediately opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the smell of smoke.
The flavors intensified almost in seconds, and then the flames blazed higher and higher. It started burning from the exit, trapping everyone in the clown theater.
"It's on fire!" Everyone immediately stood up and ran away from the fire source together.
Ye Xu turned to look at the clown, only to see the clown turned and ran backstage. Someone wanted to follow, but was blocked by the air wall.
The Joker can escape through the backstage tunnel, but they can't. You must find another way, otherwise you will be burned to death inside.
"Can this wall be broken?" Someone asked.
Although this building looks like a circus tent from the outside, it is actually built with walls and roofs inside. Because it does not need to be moved frequently, it is a fixed building.
If you want to get out, you have to break through the walls.
Some players have great strength, tried it, and found that it didn't work. Another player took out props and wanted to use them to break out.
After a while, he broke down and shouted, "It's useless!"
"I can only rush through the door." Someone gritted his teeth, ignored his partner, picked up the child and rushed towards the door.
The gate was the first to burn, so the fire was most intense there. But that was the only exit. The man thought that as long as he protected the children, even if they were burned, they would be healed if they rushed out, so what was there to be afraid of.
It seemed that they were encouraged by his indomitable momentum, and one after another someone imitated him and rushed out.
"It seems that only three can go out." Jiang Yuexuan ran to Ye Xu's side at some point, "Look, the fourth one was stopped."
As the fourth man rushed out, the exit collapsed, nearly burying him alive inside. The man trembled in fright and ran back quickly.
Now the exit can't go out, but there are still more than ten players present. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Do you want to break away the ruins at the door?" a player said, "Does anyone have such props?"
No one talked, and they took out their own props to make others cheaper, at least at this stage they couldn't do it. In any case, they have to wait until the fire is over before they can use props to open the way for everyone.
At this moment, a player sneered and said, "What props do you want? There are so many NPCs here, as long as they are strong enough, they can still be thrown as shells, right?"
As soon as he made this proposal, everyone fell silent. Although the NPCs are all dummies, they are still in human form. Just throwing them out as cannonballs is too... feels like murder.
Ye Xu didn't care about their undercurrents, but looked up at the sky to see if there was anything that could make Ye's father and mother die quickly and easily with less pain. It hurts too much to be burned to death. If I knew it, he might as well have done it in the previous project.
Bah, what kind of garbage clown show, you know how to set people on fire. Ye Xu thought unhappily.
