Unconventional Escape Game

Chapter 30: A school without ghosts

Views:

After scaring away a poor boy, Ye Xu didn't stop, he found an interesting way to play.

It turns out that he can also switch a part of his body to the physical mode, while keeping the other part in the unreal mode. In this way, he can do many more scary bad things.

For example, at this moment, Ye Xu tapped a certain player's table belly with a single solid finger, that is, an open drawer.

The desks used in this school are made of wood on the top and metal on the bottom, with a big belly. This table belly is very convenient, it can hide novels, mobile phones, cheating notes and even entire textbooks.

But now, there was a light knocking sound from the belly of the table.

It was get out of class time, the voice was not loud, and it didn't attract the player's attention at first. But Ye Xu was not discouraged, he still tapped according to the rhythm.

After a while, the player finally heard something was wrong.

"Did you hear that someone is knocking on the belly of the table?" The player asked hesitantly.

His deskmate and the front desk were turning their heads to chat with him, and they shook their heads when they heard this: "Where is the sound?"

The player frowned: "No, there really is, listen carefully."

The two players were a little confused by him, they would rather believe it or not, so they quickly quieted down and listened attentively. Because he was afraid of not being able to hear clearly, the deskmate even put his ears on the wooden table.

Now, the voice came through very clearly.

Anyone who has used this kind of desk knows that lying on this kind of desk, as long as there is a little movement, it can be infinitely magnified. So the deskmate heard an extremely clear knocking sound, and could even tell that it was knocking inside the belly of the table.

"Okay, it seems that there is a voice..."

The three looked at each other in horror, not knowing what to do.

The player swallowed, feeling that he could only rely on himself at this time, the same table and the front table would definitely not help him dig out the belly of the table to check. There are not many things in his desk belly, just some books and test papers, which will be cleaned up soon.

He cheered himself up in his heart, then stretched out his hand, trembling, and began to take out things one by one. You don't have to take it all out, as long as you can see something inside knocking on the table.

In fact, Ye Xu is squatting between the two of them right now. It is no problem for him to pass through the wall in the incorporeal state, so he doesn't feel crowded at all.

He squeezed his only finger through the gap in the book and tapped on the sideboard in the middle of the belly of the table for two. When the player took the book away, he hid his finger and started tapping with another finger that protruded from the belly of the same table.

"Strange, there is nothing." Seeing that the drawer was clean, the player was relieved, but still a little nervous.

Because the ghost is definitely still there, just not in his drawer.

"It can't be here?" The tablemate said without tears, "I heard the voice, it might be coming from the middle, so it might be here too."

The front desk glanced at him sympathetically: "Do you want to take out the contents of the desk?"

The tablemate didn't speak, he didn't dare to take it, but he couldn't take it.

For a while, the movement here has attracted the attention of the people around. They were already surrounded by three layers of people, and many senior people who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, saw that their tablemate was scared, and hurriedly urged him to take out his things quickly.

If instigation doesn't work, use aggressive methods. Anyway, they didn't reach out to pick things up, and they didn't care what their tablemates who were besieged thought.

"I, I don't want to watch it! I want to change my seat!" The deskmate suddenly stood up and shouted with a distorted expression, "I won't sit here anymore!"

"That can't be done. I asked the class teacher before that I can't change seats."

"Can't it be changed? Then there is no way."

"Are you sure you don't want to see what's inside? If you ignore him and the ghost comes out to deal with you later, don't ask someone to save you."

"That's right, we are all here now, even if something happens, we can help you. It's better than dragging you to class, right?"

"..."

The deskmate was somewhat persuaded. He hesitated to speak and glanced at the people around him, hoping that someone would stand up and help him. Unfortunately not, he can only do it himself.

After dawdling for another minute, until someone said impatiently that class was about to start, he reluctantly reached out and began to take things out.

His desk is also very clean, only textbooks and exercise books, not even messy papers. He carefully took out the books one by one, and when he took out a certain book, the knocking stopped abruptly.

He put the book on the table, but before he could react for a moment, he was about to take it out again, when he heard his deskmate scream, "What's in the book?!"

The deskmate hurriedly looked up, only to see that the book was slightly bulged, as if something was caught inside. The open side of the book page is facing the middle baffle of the table belly. If the ghost is inside, it is really convenient to knock on the table.

"Open it and have a look." Probably because he disliked the slow movement of the tablemate, a player who was watching suddenly made a move and opened the book, revealing something inside.

—It turned out to be a finger!

A clean finger, if it wasn't in the horror dungeon, I'm afraid it would only be regarded as a prank played by someone using realistic props. But now no player would be so naive, even though the finger was lying there quietly, motionless, as if it was fake.

The player flipping through the book was very courageous. Seeing that his fingers were not moving, he actually stretched out his hand to fiddle with it: "This is not just a prop, in fact, the ghost is still hiding in the belly of the table..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Xu's fingers caught his.

"My Cao!" The man hastily shook his hand, shook off Ye Xu's fingers, and then wiped them all over his body in disgust, as if he was holding something dirty.

Ye Xu was not angry either, he just let his fingers "hang in the air" calmly in the air, and then - unexpectedly rushed towards a player around him.

"Ah! It's coming!" The players immediately scattered in fright, and didn't even hear the class bell.

Ye Xu had a great time playing, chasing players around with his fingers, as if playing with someone. He didn't stop until the teacher walked in.

As a matter of course, these fleeing players were scolded one by one by the angry teacher, and told them not to attend this class, and sent her to stand outside as punishment!

Looking at the follow-up, I guess I have to go to the teacher's office.

Speaking of going to the office, Ye Xu suddenly remembered that in the original game setting, these ghosts on the bright side would only come out to scare the player when they failed to complete the task and were punished to go to the office. But this is not a hard and fast rule, just a vague hint that going to the office will make you more likely to encounter ghosts.

But Ye Xu was having fun, so he completely forgot about this. He reviewed himself, and decided that he would come to class once a day to scare the players, and spend the rest of the time in the teacher's office faithfully.

What is this called? Sitting on the sidelines

Anyway, the teachers don't know why they are all in the same big office, he just needs to wait in that office instead of running around.

After scaring everyone, Ye Xu hid his achievements and fame, and happily ran to the office. How could he forget before, the office is his battlefield!

Since the status of the office is used for punishment, of course it cannot be left alone. Otherwise what's the point of punishment? As long as players go to the office, they are safe and will not encounter ghosts, so would anyone be willing to stay in the classroom and complete tasks without thankfulness? One task is worth two points, so it's okay to give up.

But it’s different when it’s haunted in the office. In order not to encounter ghosts, they have to do the task desperately. But the tasks that players encounter will become more and more difficult, so they need to work harder and harder, and it hurts to think about it.

Ye Xu sympathized with the player for three seconds, then happily left the classroom and went to the office.

Looking at the large group of people standing outside, he will meet them again soon.

In the chat channel, the friends complained righteously about Ye Xu's crazy behavior. But it's useless, Ye Xu knew that they just said grapes were sour when they couldn't eat grapes, and when they turned into ghosts, they would only be more excited than him

[Duplicate] Ye Li: By the way, I remembered something.

[Duplicate] Lin Yue: What's the matter

[Dungeon] Ye Li: The player's clearance condition is to find all the ghosts, but if they have already become ghosts, the player doesn't need to find them. So even if the player doesn't find the correct ghost in the crowd and eliminates them, as long as all the ghosts are "dead", won't they still be able to pass the level

[Transcript] Xu Wan'an: You're right, we ignored this one before. No wonder I always feel that the difficulty of clearing the dungeon this time is too high. The Awakened player is basically incomprehensible and difficult to be discovered. It turns out that there is still this point.

[Transcript] Meng Ping: Oh, then I understand. We Awakened generally have a slightly higher luck value than players, and will die faster, if the death draw at night is really based on luck.

If the awakened ones died at night, the players only need to last for ten days. If they are lucky and catch one or two ghosts, the time will be greatly shortened.

The luck value of all players is basically quite low, otherwise they would not die young and enter this game. And those who can become Awakened will generally have higher luck than ordinary players, otherwise they may not be able to survive the first world, let alone die after becoming a veteran. Moreover, the awakened person will have more points and grade points to exchange for good luck, and this attribute will be improved the day after tomorrow.

However, such a death mechanism is very unfriendly to newcomers with high luck. They will be accidentally injured, and after the accidental injury, they will not awaken like the veterans. Fortunately, with their luck, even if their memory is washed away and they become newcomers in the next world, it is still very possible to pass the level and become an awakened person, but it will just waste the time of one world.

[Duplicate] Cao Bohang: Then we can't be soft when we are ghosts. They will pass the level faster than we imagined. Before they pass the level, we should scare them a few more times and make a lot of money.

[Duplicate] Lin Yue: If there is no accident tonight, one of us will die. At that time, I will discuss with Xiaoye to see how the division of labor will be better.

[Duplicate] Ye Li: It's better to have a girl, so she can go to the girls' dormitory to scare people.

After returning to the dormitory at night, it is not a safe time. Before turning off the lights, Ye Xu can make some interesting attempts.

After thinking about it, I feel that the players in this world are too miserable. The cruise ship world that Ye Xu met last time is very friendly. As long as you survive the experience for half an hour, you will be absolutely safe. But the players here are relatively safe only when they are sleeping, and they have to worry about whether they will die.

Ye Xu mourned for the players for a second, and quietly lay in ambush on the ceiling of the office.

It was the first time to lie on the ceiling and look at the world upside down. It felt quite novel. I wonder if the players who will come to the office later will like this surprise he gave.
