Players Please Get In the Car

"No." The little girl shook her head.

At this time, the woman's voice came from outside again, calling them to eat, so this conversation came to an end, and Xu Huo followed the two children out to eat.

Not long after the meal, two players next door came to visit, saying that they wanted to find a way with Xu Huo, and they also wanted to leave here.

"But this fog will take at least two or three days to dissipate." Xu Huo looked at the sky outside, "Now I can't see anywhere when I go out."

"That's the trouble." Pao Bubble Bean said: "But before I came here, I investigated the weather nearby. The sudden fog usually doesn't last long. To be honest with you, we are dungeon players. This venue has certain restrictions on dungeon players, but not for non-dungeon players like you. We are afraid that we can't get out, so we invite you to go with us."

The man smiled and looked forward to it, "If you agree, we can give some thank-you gifts, props and potions are fine."

Xu Huo seemed a little shaken, but after considering it, he still refused, " Your dungeon must be very difficult, I don't want to get involved. "

"Don't rush to refuse," Paopaodou continued, "We have to go out anyway, isn't it better to go together? We can also take care of each other. It is said that the hidden friends will specifically attack those who are alone. The more people there are, the safer it is, and you will not suffer any loss."

"Then let's go together." Hua Nu pressed the communicator, "In case of danger, they can take the lead."

The words were a bit unpleasant, and the face of Yin Yang Master sank slightly. Paopaodou pressed his arm without changing his expression and agreed, "Sister is right, we are B-level players, and it is right for us to take the lead."

The matter was settled, and the next step was to wait for the fog to dissipate.

In order to understand the dungeon as much as possible, Yin Yang Master and Paopaodou said goodbye and visited nearby residents door to door to learn as much clues as possible about the "hidden friend".

Regarding the "hidden friend", most adults are as tight-lipped as the middle-aged couple, as if saying these words will attract the attention of the figure in the jungle. The elderly and children are not so scrupulous. There are many versions of the "hidden friend" mentioned by the elderly. Some say that the figure will pretend to be a familiar person to lure the living. As soon as the person hears the call, he will lose his mind and follow the figure into the depths of the jungle and never come back.

Some people also say that the "hidden friend" is actually disguised by plants. The mutated plants disguise themselves as human bodies and cover them with fog. After deceiving people, they will directly eat them. This is the reason why the missing people can't even find their bodies.

Some people told the players with certainty that they had heard someone calling in the jungle, but there was no answer, and the matter was left unresolved. The companion who was traveling with them inexplicably responded and disappeared the next day...

The Yin-Yang Master and Bubble Bean asked a lot of people. The old people's statements were as bizarre as possible, while the children's statements were wild and even included some unfounded imaginations.

The more people asked, the more discrepancies there were in the details of the rumor, and in the end, it even made people doubt whether the "hidden friend" really existed.

"Are those people who are calling out in the woods really friends who are hiding?" Master Yin Yang couldn't help but say, "I think it's probably a prank by people from the same village."

"Some people say that only those who are alone will be found, and some say that several people are traveling together and everyone heard the shouting, or that several people are traveling together and only one of them heard the shouting... In short, the more I listen, the more mysterious it becomes, and it feels like it's made up."

"People's memory is the most unreliable, and sometimes they will make up their own minds. The longer the time, the less clear they remember what really happened, and the more they make up their own minds." Paopaodou said, "But Deng Guang's disappearance is true. He couldn't be contacted in the dimension, and he left on his own. This can only mean that this dungeon is not as simple as we imagined."

"It's a pity that there are not enough dungeon players." Master Yin Yang said, "When the time comes, kill a few more people, the number of people in the dungeon will decrease, and the chance of passing the level will naturally increase."

"Be quiet, the dungeon has already made it clear that if the actor kills the wrong person, he will be disqualified. Do you want to die here inexplicably?" Paopaodou glanced at him.

Before Deng Guang, their other companion, disappeared, they had thought about forcibly reducing the number of players, but the problem was that the dungeon background mentioned that "the hidden friend" only needed one friend every day, and no one knew what the consequences would be if the player killed too many people or other players killed each other.

If this dungeon was only as simple as it looked on the surface, how could it be ranked B level?

"Be careful." Paopaodou saw that Master Yin Yang was a little absent-minded and reminded him again.

"Anyway, it has been decided that you will clear the level. As long as I am not left alone, there will be no problem." Master Yin Yang said.

Paopaodou wanted to say something, but at this time the game panel suddenly popped up:

[Current number of people remaining in the dungeon: 37. ]

Xu Huo also received the information that one more person was missing. Was he killed by other players, or did the identity of the "hidden friend" change?

He had been paying attention to the movements of Paopaodou and the others. Of course, he had heard the stories about the "hidden friend". Although there were many versions, there were several common points.

First, in the process of calling people, almost everyone who heard the voice said it was the voice of someone they knew, not a stranger; second, although the background of the dungeon mentioned that only one friend was needed every day for the "hidden friend", in fact, the number of people called away in the village was not so even, and not one person really disappeared every day.

This can be seen from the old man's narration. The villages are not completely disconnected from each other, so even if the number of missing people cannot be grasped in real time, it can be figured out which people disappeared on which day during the subsequent communication.

No one mentioned that two or more people disappeared on the same day.

In this statistics, outsiders are not counted, because the people in the village cannot tell whether those foreign players left on their own or disappeared.

Pao Budou and the others specifically asked them if they had heard outsiders being called, and many people said that they did, but the people who were staying there at the time did not disappear, and as for what happened afterwards, they could not tell.

Judging from these cross-information, if there are any locals missing, there is at most one

There are two situations in which the shouting can be heard by multiple people or by one person. If a player disguises himself as a "hidden friend" and shouts to other players, it is not strange that multiple people hear the sound, and it is normal whether the player is missing or not. Players can temporarily put it aside and look back at the locals.

Although there are multiple locals who hear the shouting at the same time, no one is missing when multiple people hear it. There are two possibilities for this situation. One is that there are too many people, and it is not easy for the real "hidden friend" to call his friends. The other is that the person who calls people is not the real "hidden friend".

After such bizarre rumors appear, there will definitely be some groundless situations, and some people may even make up stories to attract attention.

In the family where Xu Huo was staying, only the little girl heard the sound in the house. If it is true, at least two results can be drawn:

One is that only one person can hear the shouting of the real "hidden friend" each time, and the other is that the locals agree with this.
