Yang Ge and Wang Xinran's equipment was too dramatic, but now that six people were gathered together, at least four of them were still effectively equipped. On the other hand, even if Yang Ge was not equipped with chained hands and fists, his combat power was not bad. Ye Xi, as a noodle, had a combat power of 5, so he was still very lucky that everyone could gather together.
Now only Le Ha and Tieu Manh are missing, the possibility of going out and fighting with others and injuring teammates has greatly decreased, everyone is much more at ease when fighting.
During the whole day afterwards, the squad used the cave as their base, either attacking or defending, fighting as they went.
Ye Xi and Wang Xinran had the lowest combat power and were left in the cave. This copy of the props was not quite the same as the strange talk props, it could be directly used by others, so Ye Xi lent it to Yang Ge, and took more than ten pieces of smoke from Guo Ying's place for self-defense.
In addition, with the landmines, Ren Ningning also placed several mines in the battle area outside the cave, to prevent any fish from slipping through the net and taking the heads of those who were not prepared to enter the cave.
Diep Tich watched them attack and defend from afar in the cave, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Professional teams are just different!
If a group of normal players entered this dungeon together, even if the big players were very experienced, they would probably be mentally ruined by this kind of combat environment.
However, the battlefield is ruthless, even for professional teams, it is difficult to completely avoid accidents.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the unexpected happened.
At that time, Diep Tich and Vuong Tam Nhiem both had a bit of slow reaction time because of the long period of time in the sand. Vuong Tam Nhiem yawned and watched a few people dodge the bullets while rushing in.
"Ah ——" Wang Xinran covered her yawn halfway, her mouth and eyes both opening into an "O" shape.
Ye Xi was bored and playing around on the side of the cliff, suddenly feeling something was wrong, he instinctively flashed towards a hidden place in the cliff, then reacted in the next moment, and when they happened to pass in front of him, he suddenly held his breath and pulled and flipped, giving the other party a kick over the shoulder and knocking him over, conveniently knocking over one of his companions.
The successful attack made Diep Tich's confidence increase greatly, he squatted down and swept over again.
Wang Xinran was so scared by the sudden incident that her whole body felt unwell. In her nervousness, she could only react with a conditioned reflex and throw the thing in her hand away.
"Ah!" Just as she wanted to stand up, Diep Tich quickly squatted down again to avoid the attack, flying half a meter above her head and out of the cave, disappearing without a trace.
"..." Diep Tich looked at Vuong Tam Nhiem with complicated eyes.
Just like that, a second of hesitation, the two enemies who had not yet been defeated reacted, the spear in their hands turned towards Diep Tich, and the shackles were loaded.
"Um..." Ye Xi's body stiffened, he was anxiously opening the [Blue Gatling Flame] to save his life, when his ears suddenly heard some unusual sounds.
... It was the sound of wind, there was something in the air blowing past the sound of wind.
Diep Tich suddenly reacted to the source of this sound in a flash, and suddenly squatted down again.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh——" The alloy material flew back from the old cave entrance, and after flying over Ye Xi, it created a curve that was completely inconsistent with common sense in physics.
"Favor?"
"Corn..."
The two enemies couldn't see clearly what it was, but they felt a sudden chill in their necks. They raised their hands to cover their necks, and at the same time, fresh blood spurted out.
Two people can not understand each other
Tin's eyes widened, and in the process of severe blood loss, he collapsed to the ground.
A few meters behind them, Wang Xinran raised her hand with a concealed expression and steadily flew over to intercept the target.
Wang Xinran: "???"
Diep Tich: "!!!"
"He still has a lot of integrity!!!" Diep Tich said in surprise, "At that time, you thought 'if only the equipment could automatically track the enemy, that would be great', so this thing flew over and could automatically track!!!"
In other words, it just looks like a simple and natural flying thing, but in fact it is more like a high-tech high-tech tracking bullet.
"This is too exciting!!!" Wang Xinran was so excited that she jumped up, then said expectantly, "That, that Yang Ge balloon...?"
—— Two hours later, the team members fighting outside took turns entering the cave to eat in groups of two. Ye Xi and Wang Xinran pulled Yang Ge to report this shocking discovery, then tried using the balloon.
The truth is, a balloon is a balloon.
The red lemon, yellow green, blue and purple, LinaBell's rice and rice, made the cave look like it was about to start a party.
Duong Ca silently finished eating a portion of home-cooked rice and canned food. When he came out of the cave, his expression became even uglier than when he entered the cave.
After finishing eating, maybe because this is the time when everyone starts eating and resting, the frequency of fighting outside becomes much lower.
Seeing this, Tieu Lanh also started to organize the team members to rest. Considering that they couldn't sleep at night, a short nap was better than no sleep at all.
19:00, the sky was completely dark, the team members once again raised their spirits.
In order to avoid attracting the enemy, they did not dare to light a fire. Xiao Leng gave everyone a division of labor, two people in a group, each group for two hours, taking turns standing guard outside the cave, while the others, in order to stay awake, chatted inside the cave.
0:00 before and after, everyone gradually realized... This copy of the dungeon is not something they won't be tired of, he is using the inability to sleep torture to take the heads of people.
Yang Ge yawned happily: "Could the rule sheet be fake? The cinema rules say the rule sheet is a 'prank', although it seems to be a cover, but what if he is playing some kind of counter-plot?"
"No." Ye Xi shook his head, "We tried it today. The pirated movie ticket you and Ning Ning had in your hands was for a 13th seat. I verified the authenticity of that piece of paper, so these pieces of paper should all be real. If some were real and some were fake, it would be too difficult for the attendees."
After saying that, she paused for a moment: "Of course, if you are really unwilling… you can also try it."
Finished speaking, glanced at Quach Dinh: "Is there still a number of times to verify?"
"Yes." Guo Ying nodded, looking at Yang Ge's meaning. Yang Ge waved his hand: "Forget it, I believe 188, don't waste props."
.
At the same time, deep in the forest, several dungeon participants yawned and passed by together. Someone complained: "What bad luck, just swiped the KPI to get to this dungeon, it would be good to be able to live to the end. If he gets eliminated, he will be demoted after coming out. Isn't he playing with us?"
"That's right, we joined before, but he said everything quite well. I thought this world didn't need to go to work, didn't think it still had to be rolled up to death!"
There are also people who don't mind: "Which planet are you all from? Was it very good before? The place where I, Mr. Nguyen, live is still a slave system, to this world's rules
I am really satisfied."
"...Slave system?" The big boss looked at him with sympathy.
Some of the original planet's long-lost slave-dominated inhabitants wanted to take this topic a step further.
But suddenly there was a snoring sound next to him.
The tycoon suddenly stopped breathing.
You slowly turned your head and saw a young teammate leaning over his shoulder, sleeping soundly.
"Hey! Wake up!!!" His companion quickly ran to wake him up, but it was too late.
He opened his eyes wide and saw several dark figures standing silently in front of him.
These few black shadows that had never fallen asleep were invisible to his teammates, only he could see them. He instantly felt goosebumps all over his body, and he continuously backed away: "Don't… Don't, don't, don't!"
They are the "NPC" of the third planet of humanity, and are also the residents of the normal world according to the rules of the strange world. Humans here suffer from pollution or die, and will be left here. They will not, but they will encounter "Democratization".
The so-called demotion is actually a reduction in treatment. Housing, income, benefits, even including drawing good luck and opportunities in dungeons.
That high and mighty "He" has always been diligently absorbing all kinds of high-level creatures into his world, so the dungeon requires a lot of NPCs, and the NPCs in the dungeon are those residents who do the work.
In this kind of work, they roughly have two points to give, one is to kill players and pull new residents into their world, the other is to "survive" themselves.
If the score is high enough, they will be promoted, otherwise they will be demoted.
If they level up to a certain point, their work frequency will be reduced to extremely low, the highest level people will never need to enter the dungeon work again in their entire life. Or they still have the same work requirements, but can get very good items, such as playing the role of a polluting participant monster in the monster talk, this kind of position basically only appears when the participant breaks the rules, unless they happen to encounter a participant who happens to be holding a monster killing prop, otherwise they can kill with one strike, not only will they be very safe, they can also get the head of the person.
In addition to this, the position of [Native People] is also very welcome, because [Native People] is hidden among the normal participants, the probability of getting the head is extremely high. Even if the end is penetrated, the head received before is still the accounting part, more or less can earn a little.
To the point of downgrading the goods too low...
They each clearly know how the people in the slum live.
They require non-stop work to be able to exchange for a portion of food, the most miserable one is almost constantly entering the dungeon, one day can only sleep four to five hours. Like this, the work status can be imagined to be not good, in the dungeon it is very difficult to get points, the rating level cannot be increased, immediately entering a vicious cycle.
But in the rules of the weird world, the lifespan of the rich is very long, this kind of torture will continue for more than a thousand years...
Except for those who came from the slave world, no one would like this kind of life. Recently, everyone has been secretly discussing that the third planet, which is the so-called "Earth", humans would not like their world either.
Because their world in many places is too similar to Earth itself.
They just seem to have more perfect rules, but under this set of rules, ordinary people are also in a life and death situation. Compared to Earth, their advantage is that there is no place to hide when committing crimes, and all the things that are not allowed by the rules are absolutely impossible to happen. But their world has no art, no literature... They themselves cannot explain why this is so, but these things simply cannot be born in this world.
So they feel, being sucked into this world, the people of Earth are all miserable.
... But now, facing the ghosts, the little fire boy didn't have time to care about the suffering of the people on earth. He was so exhausted that he tried to avoid the ghosts that he almost knelt down and begged them to let him off the horse.
He did not want to be demoted again, if he was demoted again he would have to move from the high-class apartment to the old residential area!
But the ghost group obviously wouldn't show him any kindness, because to them, although the little guy in front of them was an NPC, he was also one of their KPI targets. Although killing this kind of target only had half the points of killing the real participants, but flies were also meat!
So the ghosts activated their skills, instantly forming a black whirlwind, surrounding the little fire child.
"Ah... Ah aaa!" The little fire child let out a cry from the downsized worker, his voice becoming smaller and smaller. By the time the tornado disappeared, he was already nowhere to be seen!
❀❀❀
Although the afternoon was short and they slept for a while, they did not sleep all night and until the next morning, the team members were still mentally and physically exhausted.
So breakfast seemed exceptionally quiet. Xiao Leng made the team members eat first. He and Yang Ge stationed themselves outside the cave with their guns. Ye Xi turned the hot rice into porridge, chopped the meat from lunch, and chopped the chilled and dried vegetables into porridge. He secretly sighed in his heart that the level of this dungeon's food could probably be counted among the rules of the strange world.
Wang Xinran leaned over Ye Xi's shoulder, munching on bread and yawning: "So sleepy... Let's go down, although the food can last us for a few days and that's fine, but if it's like this, I might be stuck in a daze until tomorrow!"
"That's right." Diep Tich also had a gloomy face.
If it was simply "48 hours without sleep" or "48 hours of only sleeping 4 to 6 hours", she might still be able to endure it. But in this dungeon, their spirit, physical strength, and memory were all continuously consumed. During the day, they had to deal with endless killing, while also having to remember the rules, and at night they couldn't sleep. This was too abusive.
She said in a low voice: "Let's clear customs today."
Vuong Tam Nhiem was surprised: "... What makes you have this kind of confidence?"
She calculated it well, yesterday everyone had gone crazy, today there should be more than half of them left. If she wanted to clear the pass today, using yesterday's tactics would be very difficult to do, but if she went out to actively attack, being able to capture many people at the same time, the danger itself would also increase a lot.
Ye Xi pondered and said: "Originally not this kind of confidence, but not sleeping at night will normally make you tired, makes me feel that it is possible. It is still that principle, the 'instance' he designed in the game is relatively fair, at least at first glance it seems fair. If not sleeping will cause the player's 'spiritual power to decrease', then after two days, clearing the level will become impossible, equivalent to directly announcing a death sentence, this is not his style."
Wang Xinran frowned: "You mean, you think there is another way to clear the customs?"
"Maybe." Ye Xi looked out at the dense forest outside the cave and slowly nodded, "Yang Ge's chosen prop this time is [Creator], it can display a rule, if necessary, I can let her try using the paper for a while, maybe I can give her some key information."
"Okay, let's discuss it with her in a moment." Wang Xinran said.
Suddenly from afar came a shout: "Don't shoot! Don't shoot!!!"
Inside the cave, several people were terrified and moved towards the source of the sound to look around. Outside the cave, Tieu Leng and Duong Ca were even more nervous, both raising their guns and pointing in that direction.
As far as the eye could see, there were more than ten people running over together. They all looked like NPCs, but they didn't have any weapons. Instead, they raised their hands high, as if they were intentionally showing their friendliness.
Tieu Lanh couldn't help but frown, still not pulling the trigger, but holding the gun in his hand without any damage, ready to fight at any time.
The group of people kept running until they were more than ten meters away from them. One of them suddenly noticed the other party's equipment and hurriedly stopped: "We... Let's go here!"
His companions turned their heads to look at him, originally wanting to tell him to continue running, but when he saw the majestic AK-47 in his eyes, they stopped together with him.
The two sides of the horsemen were at a standstill in the distance, they still maintained their raised arms posture, their stature was taller than anyone else's and they shouted: "Don't shoot! We guarantee we won't attack you at this time!"
Duong Ca looked at them: "What happened?"
...
The words are not finished yet (),
()[(),
There was a small mountain, much higher than the forest, the terrain on their side of the cave was also a bit higher, just right to see the upper half of the small mountain.
That mountain was actually not that close to them, they couldn't see many details from here, but they could see the general color of the mountain.
Yang Ge saw the originally green mountain peak quickly turn gray, as if the colorful landscape painting had been turned black and white.
"Gray is the color of death, stay away from gray."
—— this is a reminder.
She and Xiao Leng looked at each other, Xiao Leng raised his voice: "This kind of gray color appears randomly? How long will it last?"
The NPC group opposite exchanged glances, but no one responded.
Obviously, although they won't launch an attack now, they also don't want to let these "KPI Living Bodies" provide too many clues.
"Tsk." Xiao Leng chuckled, his eyes sweeping over the crowd, "There are 14 of you, based on the current angle... I can probably use 12 bullets to take care of all of you."
This is actually not possible.
AK-47 is a machine gun. It is not a sniper rifle, it can hit the target with one hit, and it is unlikely to use more than the number of bullets to kill the target.
But this is really a kind of effective pretense.
The NPC group realized that the other party had undergone too much professional training, and they shivered without being cold. Someone immediately made a rational decision: "Don't, don't get excited… This gray thing… Appears from the outermost part of the island, increasing by one block every four hours, gradually absorbing towards the middle. Once it turns rotten, it will never recover."
"Rely, poison circle ah!" Ren Ningning who likes to play the chicken eating game blurted out, "Awesome, one side not letting her sleep, the other side still wants to run poison, is 'he' or some psychologically twisted big factory plan?!"
After the gray color covered the entire small mountain, it stopped spreading forward. The dozen or so NPCs did not dare to provoke them, and wisely retreated to the side.
Duong Ca said lightly: "If we go a little further, they will step on a landmine. Thinking about it, it's a bit of a pity... Tell me, why didn't I knock them down?"
It's just an NPC anyway.
Xiao Leng put down his spear: "I wonder why these NPCs are so nervous in the poison circle, is it because they are too immersed in their roles or is there another reason?" "System worship." Yang Ge laughed, "Are they people? We know they are NPCs, but in their eyes, they are the same as us."
"But the number of people allowed to clear the dungeon is still 30, not 8." Xiao Leng frowned, "Why is there no need to ask us to kill all the NPCs to clear it? 30 people, that means there are 22 slots all reserved for NPCs, us as dungeon participants only take up a small portion."
"Killing until only us are left, it's too difficult..." Yang Ge's explanation was also very reasonable, "Of the 300 people, there are 30 left, that's 90% kill. There are only 8 left, that's..."
She was confused, she felt this should be a really amazing ratio, but unfortunately her math was not good, she couldn't calculate it.
Wang Xinran: "."
"..." Yang Ge was speechless, then he waved his hand, "Look, this is someone who can complete the mission?"
"That makes sense." Tieu Lang nodded slightly, but in his heart he still felt that it might not be that simple.
A little from before
() thought deeply about the small and insignificant things strung together, such as the red fire fox that had once sent him and Ye Xi an "invite", and also the strange and special player, [Native person].
The existence of [Native People] is actually very strange, and it cannot be said that they are NPCs, because they are completely playing the role of players, and also have to obey the rules. But at the same time, they are very clear that this is a Rule Realm copy, and under this kind of premise, they still firmly stand on "His" side, aiding and abetting the enemy.
But at the same time, [native people] are also afraid of death.
This is just like a person who enters the game because of a game maker, but is also very afraid of dying in the game, this design logic is extremely strange.
Tieu Lanh began to doubt, could it be that the "Natives", "NPCs", and even monsters they had encountered in that world were all living people?
They probably won't disappear after the instance ends, the instance is just a part of their life. Just like normal people go to the mall, go to school, these things in the eyes of the participants are called "instance", perhaps they themselves are a part of that world.
If that's really the case, then it explains why [Mr. Mao Zi's Pendant Box] is so favored by NPCs in the Rule Realm.
They always took the NPC facing the wire reaction box to be "System design", but if everyone, possessing the copy belongs to that world, their reaction might be because of what they can actually achieve.
That's right, the box pendant...
Xiao Leng pondered for a long time, then turned to look at Ye Xi: "Mr. Mao Zi's pendant box, haven't you used it in this dungeon yet?"
Diep Tich nodded: "Too useless."
"Okay." Xiao Leng thought about it and discussed with her, "If we can find the lonely NPC in a moment, can you take the pendant box and ask him about that world's hypothesis?"
Diep Tich was surprised: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Leng's voice was soft and slow: "What kind of world is that? Also, is he an 'NPC' or a resident of that world? Is there some kind of temptation for him to clear this 30-person dungeon, that's why they're so desperate?"
Diep Tich's expression gradually became more gloomy as he spoke.
Beside Duong Ca was dumbfounded by his words: "... Why ask this? Why not ask first how to clear this copy?"
"It is possible, but if there is a chance in the future, I still want to ask about this matter." Tieu Lanh said.
Duong Ca: "Why a..."
In her opinion, what kind of "That World" is doesn't matter at all, they make 17 pieces, the common goal is to drive "That World" out of their world.
Diep Tich opened his mouth: "Because this is the operating mechanism of that world."
She silently looked at Xiao Leng, and said word by word: "We should have known this long ago... Knowing how the people there live, knowing how 'he' does all this business, we might be able to discover 'his' weakness, or that world's weakness, and do less to gain more."
Until now, they all thought that these Rules Realm were "Him" specially designed traps to attack the Earth, and were not the world itself.
Well they were wrong.
Although... "A world stitched together using countless copies" sounds very strange, Ye Xi completely couldn't figure out what kind of effect this kind of world had, but it wasn't completely impossible.
"Let's go take a look." Yang Ge looked at the distant gray mountains, "This place is very close to the gray land, it's not very safe, let's go a little deeper towards the central part, conveniently see if we can catch a stray NPC. There's also Li He and Xiao Meng... I wonder what their current situation is."
Hearing this, the team members nodded enthusiastically, quickly packed their backpacks, and left the cave together.
Because yesterday's large-scale reduction in troops and now it's still early, they've walked a long way and haven't encountered any other NPCs. It's quiet, the sound of flowing water seems exceptionally pleasant to hear.
The water bottles on the rich people's bodies were limited, if there were any nearby fountains for drinking water, the water bottles could be saved. Everyone thus followed the direction of the sound of water, after pushing aside a patch of bushes that blocked their view, they saw that piece of spring water.
... Along with a bundle of strange golden light.
Normally, the sunlight beams are all inclined downwards, but here, a circular beam of light about 5 meters in diameter shines down from the sky perpendicularly, unlike natural beams of light, it is like a giant spotlight in the sky.
Ren Ningning's eyes lit up: "This looks like a teleportation gate in the game... It's the kind of exit that changes the map."!
