Abnormal paradise

Tomorrow Youyu suddenly stood still. The novice talent he got was [agility enhancement]. He looked at the back of the brocade, shook his head and gave up. He chose the three floors in the middle and started cleaning.

If you are not an expert, you can stand by the wall and observe the brocade up close.

On the part of the old statue facing the wall, there is a blurry face painted with poor quality oil paint. The face is stained with blood and stains, making the smell of wind and earth more obvious. The sunken nose and cheek areas are smudged with dark colors. , but compared to the huge, bald head, the mouth is pitifully small, with a row of pale teeth exposed, like a silly smile, but a pair of green pupils with a faint light, suddenly squinting at the non-master.

[Tip: Since you are under the strong gaze of the abnormal item brocade, you need to undergo a will judgment to avoid this sanity damage. 】

[Tip: Judgment in progress... Your will level is zero, the judgment failed! 】

[Tip: Due to the containment and suppression inside the facility, the sanity damage you receive is reduced, but abnormal items have special priority, and this sanity damage cannot be automatically restored. 】

[Tip: You suffer five points of sanity damage. 】

[Newbie warning: If your sanity returns to zero, you will fall into a state of madness, and you will have to experience instant death every once in a while. At the same time, your actions will be hindered to a certain extent. 】

hiss……

The sudden attack caught Brother Gao Shou off guard, and he quickly took a step back before Jin Guan's eyes slowly moved away.

Fish Scale Arm immediately noticed something strange about him: "Is there something wrong?"

Brother Gao Shou did not hide anything, and explained his experience in a few words. Fish Scale Arm wiped his bald head, and found that this abnormal paradise was really as its name suggests, full of abnormalities. In addition, Singularity Company was not polite and continued to carry forward its usual style, even if The beginner levels are all full of death traps, so you must not take them lightly, not to mention that in the battle royale mode at the difficulty level, you may die without knowing how.

"Something is not right. Just a cleanup task is hidden. It seems that we need to be more vigilant from the beginning." Fish Scale Arm turned to look at Ember and Zouma, "Well, in addition to surveillance, the three of us have to think about it as soon as possible. Not to mention all the data, the designer intends to come up with physical settings, so we must at least understand the consumption of basic movements."

Next, the three of them took turns to perform physical experiments without following Brocade. They ran, punched, rolled, recovered... It didn't take long to figure out the general idea. A little physical energy can sprint about eight meters. After the physical energy is exhausted, it takes about three seconds to recover, during which time you can move normally. A normal punch requires two points of physical fitness, a heavy punch requires three points, a sideways step requires only one point, and rolling to dodge requires four points.

In addition, as a reminder that it will rain tomorrow, cleaning the floor also requires physical energy. However, what is more eye-catching than the physical energy consumption is that every time a floor is cleaned, contribution points will be directly obtained. This shows that Fish Scale Arm’s judgment is very correct and the task reward is indeed Directly linked to action contributions.

"Strange, why the contribution value I obtained is higher than what you said?"

Master Gao suddenly spoke up, which made Tomorrow Youyu startled: "Cleaning a floor here can add 5% to my contribution. Could it be that you, Brother Gao, aren't you?"

The expert shook his head and showed the system prompt he got, adding ten percent to a floor.

"Wow, the difference in contribution is doubled!" Tomorrow Youyu looked different and showed his system prompt, "Even if the system is biased, it can't be like this, right? Can't we, who don't have the gift of life, just watch? "

In this situation, not only is it going to rain tomorrow, but even the two elite players are a little confused. However, Yan Yan, who has been showing little performance, suddenly said at this moment.

"wrong."

"What's wrong?" Tomorrow Youyu frowned slightly. Although there was no expression on his face, deep down he still looked down upon ordinary players with no reputations such as Yu Yan and Zou Ma.

"I am gifted with will, what are you?" Yi Yan asked, his eyes steady.

"Agility." Tomorrow Youyu replied with a puzzled expression.

"And you?"

Ember looked at Zouma, who immediately responded: "Perception."

"Five people correspond to exactly five talents. If the system favors the master brother at this time, it may favor others later."

Ember's idea was affirmed by Fish Scale Arm: "Although I haven't put much effort into Titan, I also know that the Singularity game is difficult to return, but I will not deliberately widen the gap between players. It is likely to be like what Ember said, The master brother just happened to come across his special task."

Tomorrow Youyu suddenly realized and glanced at Yu En: "I see, that's why I'm impatient."

Fish Scale Arm also looked back at Ember, but at this time, Ember was looking at the brocade intently, performing his task seriously.

The little interlude ended quickly. The ones who finished cleaning were Not the Expert and It Will Rain Tomorrow, taking over the tracking work of Ember and Zouma. The two floors increased their contribution by ten percent. After finishing the floor, Fish Scale Arm equally distributed the cleaning share of the walls. Finally, when the eleventh minute passed, Fish Scale Arm gently pressed the communication button next to the door.

The door slowly rose, revealing the figure of the security officer. His eyes quickly glanced around and saw no trace of blood.

"Well done, you can come out now."

Hearing this, the players all breathed a sigh of relief. Although no accidents occurred during the cleanup, the pressure brought by the brocade was always there. From the beginning to the end, the players did not try to touch the brocade, which also made the entire cleanup task futile. twists and turns. The five people quickly left the room and the containment facility was closed again. At the same time, everyone received a notification that the mission was completed.

[Tip: You have completed the assessment task - cleaning up, and received a contribution reward. 】

[Newbie tip: Contribution value will affect all aspects of your work in the foundation. Whenever your contribution value reaches a certain limit, you will receive a fixed reward from the foundation - an increase in character level. 】

The cleanup experience and mission rewards increased Ember's contribution gauge to 35%. According to his estimation, a non-expert should be able to reach 50% or more.

"You newcomers are quite obedient. If nothing goes wrong in the following tasks, you will successfully get the medicines you need." Because the cleanup work was completed particularly smoothly, the guard officer's expression softened a lot. He clapped his hands and looked at everyone, "Okay, you guys go back and take a rest to replenish your strength. It's not easy to have close contact with abnormal items."

Is this the end? What about follow-up tasks?

The players looked at each other, it was obviously not the time to rest now.

"When you come to the Foundation, as long as you are willing to complete the task seriously, you will get everything you want. This is not bragging, but..."

Before the guard officer finished speaking, everyone's vision fell into darkness without warning.

boom!

The room on the second floor that was forcibly stripped of all light sources was immediately swept away by a sudden explosion. The ground shook violently, knocking the unsuspecting players to the ground. The few guards guarding the second floor were unable to resist. Fall down.

Sure enough, now is not the time to rest!

In the darkness, players responded urgently. Yi Yan quickly regained his composure and squatted on the ground to maintain his center of gravity. He could feel the strong airflow coming from the direction of the external door, and then colliding back and forth throughout the entire second floor space. The violent trembling from under his feet showed that he was wandering in the wasteland. The evil wolf above officially launched an attack on the 19th hidden facility.

"Dammit, everyone stay where you are!"

The guard officer's voice was very irritated. He tried to raise his voice so that his voice would not be scattered by the strong wind and covered by the explosion.

"The foundation's emergency defense measures have been activated! There is no chance of external attacks succeeding!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the gray-white emergency lighting restored the light here, as if the situation had calmed down just as the guard officer predicted. However, the players already knew that this attack was just the beginning.

Sure enough, the guard officer's roar came again.

"Lie down!"

Out of the corner of his eye, Yi Yan could only see a bright ball of light flying from a distance at high speed. Then he subconsciously rolled over with his head in his arms, huddled up and hid in the corner. The feeling of his back touching the wall just now When it reached his brain, he noticed that the wind pressure on the side of his cheek increased rapidly.

Yi Yan tried his best to open his eyes wide, resisting the pressure, and looked at the source of the strong wind. The entrance that originally read "Containment Facility, No Approaching" was suddenly replaced by a huge black hole!

The sudden ball of light actually locked the power of the explosion within the access control area with great precision, completely blasting open the containment facility of the abnormal project brocade. Not only that, the aftermath of the explosion also destroyed the nearby lighting devices, and the gray and white lights were extinguished one after another. , all players, including Ember, recalled the guard officer's stern warning at this moment.

Never let that thing out of your sight!
