Survival game: my plug-ins can stack up

Now, Zhao Xun understood why Tiantian asked him for help.

If he guessed correctly, Tiantian should have failed a certain task in the dream game twice, but she never found a way to clear it, so she wanted his help.

The method is also very simple. If you enter the dream game at the same time, the dreams will be merged into a multiplayer mode.

Normally, this dream game should be mainly a single-player game.

If you fail a mission, you will be deducted ten points. For experienced players, it is not a big amount.

But if a task fails repeatedly, the points deducted will be a bottomless pit.

The mission has never been completed. Every time you enter the dream game, you still have to face the same mission, and you must enter the dream game every ten days.

If the player cannot find a solution in time, it becomes a dead end.

What's more, the longer you stay, the more likely it is that there will be tasks that cannot be cleared in one go, and the probability of points being deducted will also greatly increase.

This can also explain why some old players choose to participate in platform games.

Or maybe the points have been deducted almost, and you want to save some points for yourself first and then save some survival time.

Or, although the points are still sufficient, the tasks in the dream game can never be completed, and the only option is to choose the platform game to accumulate points to survive and extend one's life.

Zhao Xun retracted his thoughts and continued to read the text on the pop-up window.

[The following are things to note when entering the dream game. 】

[First, before entering the dream game, you must put the ticket on your body and cannot hide it in the storage compartment. With the existence of tickets, players will not easily get lost in the dream game and can return on time. 】

[Second, after the dream game starts, the player's body will also enter the game. Hunger, injury and death will directly affect the player himself. 】

[Third, after the player enters the dream game, the player’s agent body will be retained on the train as a bridge between the game and reality. The ticket will be divided into two, one half is on the player body, and the other half is on the agent body. With the existence of agent bodies and tickets, players will not lose themselves in the dream game. 】

[Fourth, in order to ensure the safety of the player's agent body and ticket, before entering the dream game, you can use points to purchase [Safety Barrier], 10 points per day. During the guarantee period, any form of attack or injury cannot cause damage to the body, and no one can take away the ticket in any way. 】

The fourth note is another place where points are consumed.

Although ten points are not many, they cost ten points in one day. A little adds up to a lot, but it is a big sum.

The most important thing is that players who don’t have a clue don’t need to redeem points for [Safety Barrier] before entering the dream game.

Although the notice does not clearly state whether the injury or death of the agent body will lead to the injury or death of the player body, the loss of tickets will be handled according to the fare evasion rules, and this rule has not changed.

What's more, the third note makes it very clear that the existence of the agent body is a bridge between reality and the game.

Once the agent body or ticket is lost, players are likely to lose themselves in the dream game.

The situation is probably similar to the game "Fairy Tale Forest". After entering the limited scene, you lose yourself and cannot leave the scene.

If you lose yourself in the dream game, you will probably sink into the dream game for a long time and be unable to leave.

As long as they don't want to live anymore, every player will choose to purchase [Safety Barrier] before entering the dream game.

This is another place where you have to spend points.

Zhao Xun looked at the fourth train code.

After becoming a veteran player, information about leaving Endless Train finally appeared.

"Becoming a train conductor will give you the opportunity to leave the endless train" instead of saying "becoming a train conductor will give you the opportunity to leave the endless train." The difference of a few words means the meaning is completely different.

The latter means that as long as you become a train conductor, you can get off the train. The former means "there is a chance to get off the train", and "opportunity" means that after becoming a train conductor, the probability of getting off the train is not 100%.

However, this is the only way to get off that I know of so far.

Even if you can't guarantee a 100% chance of getting off, you still have to try.

Zhao Xun clicked on [Details] to become a train conductor.

[There are two ways to become a train conductor. 】

[The first method is to spend 10,000 points to redeem and become a train conductor. 】

[Second, in the dream game, there may be clues about the train conductor. If you collect enough clues, you can become the train conductor. 】

In comparison, the first method is simpler and more straightforward.

The second most troublesome thing is the four words "may exist".

This means that not every dream game you enter will have clues related to the train conductor.

But the system neither made it clear what kind of clues were considered to be clues about the conductor, nor did it explain how to find clues about the conductor.

If there is a system prompt when a clue appears, and it only takes more time to find the clue, that's okay.

If there are all hidden clues, no system prompts, and only after the clues are obtained, we will know that they are "clues about the train conductor", then the uncertainty will be too great.

There is also great uncertainty in "collecting enough clues". How can it be considered "enough"?

After enough system judgments, the system prompts the player to become a train conductor, or does the player have to make his own judgment?

There are too many uncertainties. In comparison, the first method seems much easier.

That's a progress bar visible to the naked eye.

As long as you reach 10,000 points and redeem them, you can become a train conductor.

Everything is very straightforward.

It’s just that it’s hard to save these 10,000 points.

If you want to survive in Endless Train, you must upgrade your special abilities. Just upgrading from lv4 to lv5 requires one thousand points, which is a huge amount.

Not to mention that you have to spend points on food and drink every day.

In addition, when the survival time is insufficient, if it is too late to participate in the platform game or the dream game, you have to use points to exchange for survival time.

There are also points deducted for failed missions in the dream game.

Before entering the dream game, you need to spend points to purchase [Safety Barrier].

These are all consumption of points, and they are consumption that cannot be eliminated.

The only way to accumulate points is to complete tasks in the dream game and clear platform games.

Based on this calculation, it is really not easy to accumulate 10,000 points.

It’s no wonder that even though the Endless Train has been around for a year, no one has left it alive.

I'm afraid no player has accumulated 10,000 points so far.

Zhao Xun glanced at Articles 5 to 9 of the [Train Rules]. These five rules were exactly the same as the train rules for new players. There was nothing that required extra attention.

So, he focused on the last one.

"Old players update their rankings every ten days and change carriages and berths based on their rankings."

During the new player period, seats are randomly arranged and not based on ranking, so updating the rankings every day will not affect new players to continue to stay in their original seats.

Old players have to arrange bunks based on rankings. If the rankings are updated every day, changing bunks too frequently will be troublesome.

It happens that old players will enter the dream game every ten days, and their points will change greatly. It is more appropriate to update the rankings at this time.

However, in the rookie period, the ranking is obviously based on the number of all passengers, and is not calculated solely by the number of new players.

In other words, the daily rankings of old players are invisible, but they are not displayed every day.

"The first fifty people can stay in the first three soft sleeper carriages, and the first ten people can enjoy free privileged services."

Zhao Xun touched the hard bed board under him.

Obviously, the veteran players after fifty were sleeping in hard beds.

If you want to get better treatment, work hard to accumulate points. The higher the ranking, the better the treatment.

Even if it is not to become a train conductor, but just to make oneself more comfortable, this will become the motivation for many players to accumulate points.

Even Zhao Xun is somewhat interested in the top ten "privileged services".

After reading all the [Train Rules for Veteran Players] and various [Details], Zhao Xun closed his eyes and sorted it out completely in his mind so that he could remember every key point more clearly.

Just as he was finishing combing, a short-haired woman complained softly from under the bed: "There are so many things to remember this time, my head hurts a little."

If you just remember the train code, it won't be a big problem.

Five of them are the same as the previous rules for newcomers. You just need to remember five new ones.

But among the five new train regulations this time, three have [details], and each detail is very complicated.

She was not very good at mental skills, so it took her a while to finally remember the outline, but it also made her a little irritable.

Zhao Xun opened his eyes and looked down. The three volunteers had already laid down on their respective beds.

All three volunteers did not forget to abide by the "Train Rules" and returned to bed as soon as midnight was approaching.

But now, it is already past midnight, it should be past one in the morning.

"Be patient." Wu Wei, who was lying on the upper bunk opposite, advised in a low voice, "It's about your future survival, so you can't be careless."

"I know." The short-haired woman took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Don't be too impatient. There's no big risk if you don't fully memorize the train regulations in the first few days." Ajie, who was on the lower bunk opposite, also comforted him, "Anyway, I've memorized them all. We will all act together in the next few days. I will be there at any time." Remind you and help you deepen your memory.”

"Okay." The short-haired woman agreed, her mood finally calming down completely.

At this moment, the stopped train started slowly and gradually accelerated.

It seems that the new wave of passengers have completed the "competition" in carriage 17 and sat down in the seats shown on their respective tickets.

After a while, a familiar electronic sound sounded from the train's horn.

[Today is 1:40 a.m. on October 1, 3033. The train will arrive at the first stop at 9:57 a.m. on October 3. Passengers who need to get off the train should be prepared in advance. 】

"As we guessed before, when the [Train Rules] were told to new players, the announcement for the veteran players did not sound." Wu Wei said in a low voice, "But when the platform was notified of the game time, it was the whole train announcement. .”

"The time for the platform game must be broadcast to the whole train, otherwise the veteran players will not know when they can participate in the platform game." Ajie shrugged, then he looked at the short-haired woman and Wu Wei, "You shouldn't know Are you going to participate in the platform game again so soon?”

"Of course not." The short-haired woman shook her head quickly, "After becoming an old player, it is no longer necessary to participate in the platform game. Unless I have to, I will never take the risk of participating in the platform game again."

In platform games, most of them have a low survival rate.

This is not an ordinary game, and it doesn't matter if you lose.

This is a game where you die if you lose.

Of course I won't participate if I can't.

"I also think it's best not to participate in the platform game for the time being." Wu Wei said, "We have to get familiar with the dream game first before considering anything else."

"I think so too." Ajie nodded repeatedly, happy that he and his other two teammates had the same idea.

When he was happy, he glanced at Zhao Xun, who was lying on the bed opposite him.

His face stiffened, his smile disappeared, and then he turned over, facing away from Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun had a funny look on his face, feeling that Ajie was having a tantrum like an immature child.

Of course he wouldn't argue with a child.

As long as Ajie doesn't affect what he wants to do or harm his interests, he won't even look at Ajie.

The box fell completely silent, and no one spoke anymore.

After a month of training, they all developed the habit of sleeping as soon as possible.

I used to be able to fall asleep while sitting on my seat, but now that I have a bed, I naturally fall asleep more comfortably and faster.

Compared to the silence among the old players, there are still various whispers from the new players.

The faces of many new players are filled with uneasiness and worry about the future, making it difficult to fall asleep.

*

Seven o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Xun was awakened by the rustling sound of getting up.

There wasn't much movement from the other party, but Zhao Xun was always alert and would wake up immediately at the slightest sign of trouble.

He opened his eyes and looked down, and saw that the three volunteers had all dressed up and got out of bed.

The short-haired woman noticed the bed board shaking slightly. She looked up and saw Zhao Xun's head sticking out.

"Sorry for waking you up." She apologized politely.

"It's okay, I'm ready to get up." Zhao Xun said as he put on his coat, but he was not in a hurry to get out of bed.

Wu Wei could see that Zhao Xun wanted to stagger the time with them. He said good morning to Zhao Xun and took the initiative to pull the other two people away.

After the door of the box closed again, Zhao Xun took out his mobile phone and checked the time.

It was just after seven o'clock.

Usually, when nothing happens, he doesn't get up until eight or nine o'clock.

Seven o'clock is really too early.

But now that he's awake, he doesn't really want to go back to sleep.

He just sat there in a daze for a while. It was estimated that the three volunteers had finished washing, and Zhao Xun got out of bed.

He went to the bathroom to wash up first, and then went straight to Car No. 6.

Tiantian only said that she was in Car No. 6, but did not say which box she was in. Zhao Xun was waiting outside the door of Car No. 6.

As long as Tiantian has breakfast, she must go through this door.

After waiting like this for an hour, Tiantian finally came out at eight o'clock.

At this time, Tiantian had obviously just woken up, her hair was a little messy, and her sleepy eyes looked even more innocent and cute. Anyone who looked at her would think that she would not be a murderous villain.

Seeing Zhao Xun, Tiantian's originally worried eyes widened instantly, and then she showed a happy smile.

She was about to approach Zhao Xun when she seemed to remember something and hurriedly ran towards the bathroom on the other side.

After tinkering inside for a while, the fresh and tidy version of Tiantian came out.

Until Tiantian walked up to him, Zhao Xun finally couldn't help but ask: "Isn't there a bathroom here, why do you have to go so far away?"

"It's not just to maintain a good image in front of you," Tiantian winked at Zhao Xun, "I didn't brush my teeth or wash my face just now. It would be bad if I got too close and let you see the oil on my face."

Zhao Xun was speechless: "...you are quite leisurely."

Tiantian didn't care about Zhao Xun's words, she just smiled and asked, "Why did you come to see me?"

After asking, she walked towards the restaurant without stopping.

Zhao Xun followed Tiantian's footsteps: "Last night I finished watching the veteran player's Train Code."

"Well, what next?" Tiantian motioned to Zhao Xun to continue.

"You don't seem to have the intention to become a train conductor." Zhao Xun went straight to the point.

Tiantian stopped for a moment, turned her head and glanced at Zhao Xun, showing an interested look: "How did you tell?"

After asking this question, she continued walking forward.

"People who want to be train conductors will try their best to reduce expenses and accumulate points." Zhao Xun replied, "In terms of food, they should choose ordinary restaurants instead of high-end restaurants. The price of food in high-end restaurants is double that of ordinary restaurants. Times, or even higher, although you can eat better and have more varieties of dishes, it is not conducive to earning points."

"That's right." Tian Tian nodded, "I often go to high-end restaurants to eat, and I don't look like I want to save points, so you infer that I have no intention of becoming a train conductor."

"Yes." Zhao Xun nodded.

At this time, the two people walked into an ordinary restaurant together and bought a meat bun each.

After sitting down, Tiantian spoke: "I don't think it's interesting to be a train conductor, and I don't want to get off the train."

She blinked at Zhao Xun with a sweet smile on her face: "I have always felt that the Endless Train is much more interesting than the outside world. So I have no interest in becoming a train conductor. I just want to have fun on the Endless Train." days."

Because of this, she didn't need to accumulate too many points. It was enough to keep some as a backup just in case something unexpected happened.

Of course the rest must be used to improve her quality of life and allow her to enjoy it better.

"So, why have you been coming to ordinary restaurants recently?" Zhao Xun asked, "You don't have enough points?"

After seeing the rules about the conductor and thinking of Tiantian's behavior, he guessed Tiantian's thoughts.

After all, he and Tiantian belong to the same type of people, and he can understand part of Tiantian's mentality.

Therefore, what he really wanted to ask was not why Tiantian didn't want to become a train conductor, but to make sure that Tiantian was running out of points.

Tiantian bit her bun for a moment, then looked at Zhao Xun without saying a word.

Zhao Xun continued: "Yesterday I met you in an ordinary restaurant, and today you came to an ordinary restaurant again. Since you are so content to enjoy life on the train, you probably won't come to an ordinary restaurant to eat steamed buns unless you have to... …Unless you don’t have enough points.”

"You're half right." Tiantian finished her words after eating the bun in her mouth, "I actually have a lot of points now, but if I can't pass that damn task, I have to keep deducting points. And I still have I have to wait ten days before I can merge the dream game with you and ask you to help me, just in case there are other accidents that require points during this period, so I have to save some."

She has to enter the dream game again within these ten days, and she has to stay in the dream game for at least three days.

Thirty points are required to purchase [Safety Barrier]. If the mission fails again, you will have to deduct more points...

After all this calculation, she would have to deduct points from both young and old.

She could only give up her previous days of enjoyment and live a frugal life for a few days.

"If you fail to pass the mission, you will only be deducted ten points..." Zhao Xun paused, as if thinking of something, and asked, "Have you failed more than one mission?"

"Congratulations, you guessed it right." Tiantian showed a distressed expression, "So, I'm counting on you."

"How can you be sure that I can help you complete those tasks?" Zhao Xun raised his eyebrows slightly, "I haven't stayed on the Endless Train as long as you, and my strength is probably not as good as yours. You shouldn't have so much confidence in me. .”

"It's not that I have a lot of confidence in you." Tiantian blinked innocently, "It's just that no one else can understand these tasks except you. If you can't succeed, then find someone else." People are not of much use either.”

"So that's it." Zhao Xun nodded clearly.

Although he still doesn't know what the specific mission is, he can probably guess that this mission is related to Tiantian's "villain" aspect.

Therefore, Tiantian, who repeatedly failed to pass the test, could only find him who had similar qualities to her for help.

Looking for someone else is of little use.

The details of the Dream Game also said that this is a game tailor-made for every player.

What Zhao Xun can imagine is that the tasks and story backgrounds that appear in the dream game may be the psychological mapping of the players, or the completely opposite mapping.

He was becoming more and more interested in his first dream game, not knowing what it would be like.

"Although if we enter the dream game at the same time, the dreams will merge, but it stands to reason that we may not receive the same mission." Zhao Xun raised his doubts, "Could it be that those missions that you have never cleared are all Team mission?”

Merging dreams just means that there will be multiple players in the same dream game. The players' tasks may be the same, they may be opposite, or they may even be completely unrelated.

Many possibilities exist, and this is normal.

It is impossible to merge the players in the dream world, it must be a unified mission.
