Survival game: my plug-ins can stack up

Zhao Xun was not surprised by this.

Among a dozen players, it is impossible for all of them to have special abilities that are ineffective against ghosts.

Although due to the special nature of "ghosts", many special abilities will be useless, and the game only arranges "weapons that can kill ghosts", there will always be exceptions.

Zhao Xun never thought that he would be the only special case among these dozen people.

The monk only said that his special ability was effective against ghosts, but did not elaborate on his plan to have any special ability.

It’s not easy for others to ask.

Zhao Xun continued to assume the role of promoting the progress of the game: "Let's count the number of rooms left that we haven't found, and let's continue the action."

"Now that everyone has gathered together, I suggest not to disperse any more." The monk proactively suggested, "This can not only ensure everyone's safety as much as possible, but also speed up the search for the room, and share information in a timely manner."

"I agree!" The priest was the first to jump out and agree.

He wished they could all act together.

It would be to his advantage to act together, both from the perspective of protecting his own safety and from the perspective of information sharing.

And if everyone is together, he will have more opportunities to steal other people's weapons.

Although he doesn't have the confidence to kill ghosts, he still has confidence in stealing things from others.

After all, his special ability is called [exploring the bag to retrieve objects].

As long as he has seen the item with his own eyes, determined its location, and then approached it at an appropriate distance, he can quietly take the item away without the other party noticing.

Therefore, it would be of no harm to him to act together.

No one said anything about the priest's positive reaction, and the others did not object to the idea of ​​acting together.

Although there may be situations where ghosts are snatched when we act together, it is fair enough that whoever kills first will get it.

The most important thing is that everyone is safer if we act together.

So, after everyone counted the remaining rooms that needed to be explored, they acted together.

They happened to be on the third floor and chose a room on the third floor nearby.

First is the gym.

The fitness equipment inside is quite complete and the area is as big as a fitness studio.

Each of the 9 players is responsible for an area. It is indeed much faster to search, and they can find all the places in an hour.

A total of three adult ghosts were found, two were beaten to death by Taoist priests, and one was beaten to death by a gray-haired man.

Then, everyone went to the only room on the third floor that they had not been to yet, the sun room.

The sun room is connected to the large terrace outside, which is also equipped with large parasols and deck chairs, just like those on the beach.

Everyone went to the big terrace to search carefully and asked the Taoist priest to kill two child ghosts.

Then they returned to the sunroom and continued their search.

After searching, Xiaoqing couldn't help but complain: "Why haven't I found the fourth weapon that can kill ghosts yet? Could it be that someone hid it secretly and didn't tell anyone on purpose?"

Afro has always looked at Xiao Qing with displeasure. When he heard Xiao Qing's words, he was the first to jump out: "You really have a dark mind and think everyone is as dark as you. Is it necessary to hide the weapon? Touch it. When the ghost comes, don’t you have to use it to kill the ghost? Wouldn’t that expose the secret?”

"Perhaps someone got two weapons and didn't want to share them with others. He was afraid that others would steal the ghost's head and score points, so he pretended that he only had one weapon?" Xiao Qing said confidently, "This will not affect him at all in killing ghosts."

"If that happens, it's someone else's luck and ability." Zhao Xun sneered, but didn't look at Xiaoqing, just checking the clothes in the drying area, "You should be grateful if you have the opportunity to follow the game, not There’s a lot of nonsense here.”

"You actually said that, is it because you hid the weapon?" Xiaoqing snorted as if he had grasped the handle, "I just said you..."

Before she finished speaking, a fruit knife suddenly appeared in Zhao Xun's hand and he threw it straight towards Xiao Qing's chest.

Xiaoqing was so frightened that she backed away repeatedly, unable to speak.

Her reflexes were poor and she barely managed to avoid the fatal blow, but a small gash was opened on her cheek by the blade.

She only felt a pain in her cheek, and before she could reach out to touch her face, the fruit knife that was supposed to fall to the ground suddenly seemed to come to life, turned and stabbed her again.

She screamed in fright, and while running away in a hurry, she asked Zhao Xun: "What are you doing? I just legitimately doubted you, do you just want to kill me?"

Zhao Xun's fingers moved slightly, and the fruit knife suddenly accelerated and stabbed straight towards Xiao Qing's chest.

Everyone could see that Zhao Xun really had murderous intentions and was not just giving a warning.

For a moment, the entire sun room was silent. Everyone looked at Zhao Xun and then at Xiao Qing, not knowing what to say.

They also don't like Xiaoqing's words and deeds, so it's a good thing to have someone to treat him.

But Zhao Xun had murderous intentions towards Xiao Qing, which made them a little... surprised.

There is no reason for players to fight to the death in this game. Normally, everyone will maintain an appropriate bottom line. Even if conflicts and quarrels occur, they will not kill each other.

Most of these new players know very well that if they become players in a survival game, sooner or later they will have to face players killing each other.

But before experiencing the cruel reality personally, human nature and conscience still have the upper hand, and no one wants to easily break through the bottom line of killing.

At first, facing Zhao Xun who broke through the bottom line without any pressure, everyone was a little uncomfortable.

Xiaoqing no longer had time to talk distractedly, so she could only stumble and hide.

I managed to dodge a few times, but because I was too anxious, I tripped over the mop placed by the wall and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

The fruit knife suddenly stopped, fell vertically, and stabbed into Xiao Qing's heart steadily and accurately.

Xiaoqing's face turned pale in pain. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to scream, but the huge pain prevented her from even making a sound.

The next second, the fruit knife was pulled out neatly, and large amounts of blood splashed to the ground.

Xiaoqing twisted and struggled on the ground for a few times, but then there was no movement.

The moment the fruit knife pierced Xiaoqing's heart, everyone except Zhao Xun subconsciously held their breath.

When Xiaoqing was out of breath, everyone seemed to finally have recovered.

The priest couldn't bear it anymore: "You actually killed someone! Are you going crazy?"

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and glared at Zhao Xun. When he met Zhao Xun's cold gaze, it was as if a basin of ice water had been poured on him by his pocket, and the flame of his anger suddenly disappeared completely.

There was only a chill in my heart.

"I don't like people who tease me." Zhao Xun's voice was calm, and he even showed a kind smile, "Especially those who tease me."

Without the constraints of his adoptive parents, he relaxed a lot about his own requirements.

But in order to prevent himself from becoming an irrational murderous maniac, he also set rules for himself.

He will not kill casually without conflict of interest or endangering his life.

However, for someone like Xiao Qing, although there was no conflict of interest and his life was not in danger, she had no self-awareness and liked provocation, so he would only give her one or two chances to survive at most.

Whether it is once or twice depends entirely on his own mood.

For example, if he now feels that Xiao Qing is very noisy, then Xiao Qing will not have a second chance.

"You...you didn't kill someone because you were cheated out of shame, right?" Xiaolan's voice became smaller and smaller, as if she was afraid of Zhao Xun, but she still insisted on finishing her words.

Zhao Xun turned to look at Xiao Lan with a sympathetic look: "I hope you have some sense and don't regard the thing around your neck as a decoration."

Xiaolan: "..."

Is he calling her stupid?

Zhao Xun smiled slightly and added: "Of course, if you are deliberately provoking, I don't mind sending you to accompany Xiaoqing."

Xiao Lan was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak again.

Xiaoqing's fate is right in front of her, so she won't be so short of memory.

"I'm only going to say this once," Zhao Xun glanced at everyone, "With my strength, there is no need to do such a small trick. If you doubt me on this matter, I will default to provoking me."

"That's right, the boss will definitely not do such a little trick!" Afro was the first to stand up and express his opinion. "The boss and I have been acting together throughout the whole process. I know best whether he has found a weapon. Besides, he doesn't need a weapon. He can kill those ghosts easily, and the number of ghosts he has killed now is several times that of all of us combined. He has no need to hide weapons at all!"

Although the others did not speak, they agreed with the afro's statement.

None of them doubted Zhao Xun, but were shocked that Zhao Xun killed a player so easily, without any psychological pressure...

Everyone was silent for a while.

"Amitabha," the monk came out to smooth things over, "let's continue looking for ghosts."

Zhao Xun took another look at the monk.

This monk did not talk about benevolence, morality, and compassion like those common monks.

It looks pretty pleasing to the eye.

With the steps in hand, the others changed the topic and continued to look for clues or ghosts in the sun room.

But when they were walking around, they tried to avoid Xiao Qing's body.

In the end, no ghost was found in the sunroom, but Xiao Lan found a weapon that could kill ghosts.

It was a piece of sulfur soap that looked very ordinary, but when Xiao Lan touched the sulfur soap, a pop-up prompt appeared, and then he realized that this was one of the weapons that could kill ghosts.

She was so happy and beaming with joy that the priest standing next to her noticed the clue.

She knew she couldn't hide it, so she could only tell the truth.

But instead of telling the priest quietly, she let everyone know that she had found a weapon.

After that, she followed the Taoist priest all the time, being careful not to make the priest's intention too obvious.

Xiaolan is not as fussy as Xiaoqing, and naturally has a little more brains than Xiaoqing.

The priest didn't care about Xiaoqing's life before and only thought about escaping for her own life. She already knew that the priest was unreliable.

What's more, she could clearly see from the priest's eyes just now that he wanted to keep the weapons she found for himself.

That was a weapon she found herself, why should she give it to others?

In order to protect her things, she must choose someone she can rely on, follow him, and try not to give the priest a chance to attack.

She is afraid of Zhao Xun and doesn't like the monk very much.

Only Taoist priests who also have weapons are her most suitable candidates.

The Taoist priest was a little surprised when he saw Xiao Lan following him.

But when he saw the gloomy face of the priest not far away, he immediately understood what was going on.

He didn't say anything, nor did he drive Xiao Lan away, letting Xiao Lan follow him out of the sun room.

Zhao Xun was the last one to walk out of the sun room. When he was about to leave, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Xiao Qing's body.

He just stared at it quietly for several seconds without moving.

Afro noticed that Zhao Xun did not follow everyone to the stairs, so he quickly approached Zhao Xun and asked: "What's wrong, boss?"

Zhao Xun didn't speak, and his eyes were still looking in Xiao Qing's direction.

I don't know if it was his imagination, but he always felt that Xiao Qing's body seemed to have been moved.

It wasn't much different from the position when he first fell down, but it seemed that the angle of his head had changed.

He didn't pay special attention to Xiao Qing's body, so he wasn't 100% sure whether he saw it wrong.

"Boss?" Seeing that Zhao Xun remained silent, Afro asked again.

Zhao Xun still didn't respond, but walked back to Xiao Qing's body.

Afro's face was full of confusion, but he wisely did not interrupt anymore, but stood quietly outside the door and waited.

Zhao Xun touched Xiaoqing's neck. His body was cold. He had no body temperature and no pulse. He was indeed dead.

but……

Judging from the blood sprayed out, there is a line on Xiaoqing's neck that clearly does not match.

Xiaoqing's head did seem to move.

Zhao Xun suddenly had an idea.

Players may become ghosts if they die in a haunted house.

Then, the player who becomes a ghost is also one of the ghosts that needs to be killed by the living player.

This also explains very well why the game rules say "the number of ghosts is unknown".

Because the total number of ghosts is not fixed and will change depending on the number of dead players.

It wasn't difficult to determine whether his guess was correct.

As soon as Zhao Xun raised his hand, a ball of flame appeared in his hand.

Without any hesitation, he threw the flame directly onto Xiao Qing's body.

When the afro outside the door saw this, his eyes widened instantly.

Everyone was killed, why weren’t they even left with bodies?

This...isn't this a bit cruel...

Before he could finish his thoughts about exploding his head, he suddenly heard a shrill scream.

He had heard this voice several times before and was already familiar with it.

This is not a human cry at all, but belongs to a ghost.

etc!

ghost?

Afro stared at the corpse on the ground in shock, only to find that the corpse seemed to be alive again, rolling and struggling in the flames.

He suddenly trembled with fear.

Holy shit!

Dead players will also turn into ghosts!

The next second, Zhao Xun added another ball of fire, and Xiao Qing's body suddenly stopped moving.

[Congratulations to player Zhao Xun for successfully killing a ghost, earning 10 points and 10 hours of survival time. 】

Sure enough.

The guess was confirmed, Zhao Xun quickly retracted the flames and walked quickly downstairs.

He did not see the bodies of other players on the third floor, so the three players who died before should be scattered on the second and first floors.

While time is still short, perhaps the player's soul has not yet left the body, so directly burning the corpse will burn the player's ghost.

If it is delayed for too long, there is no telling what items the players will be attached to, or they may become wandering ghosts.

Once that happens, it will take a lot of time and energy to find their ghosts again, and you may even have to search the entire haunted house again several times.

Therefore, it would save a lot of trouble to burn the corpses of those players before that happens.

The other players were standing at the top of the stairs waiting for Afro and Zhao Xun. Suddenly they saw Zhao Xun running downstairs in a hurry, and everyone was stunned.

The Taoist priest asked the afro who was following closely: "What happened?"

While Afro quickly chased Zhao Xun, he took the time to reply: "The player named Xiao Qing has turned into a ghost."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.

The Taoist priest and monk realized at the same time what Zhao Xun wanted to do when he hurried downstairs, and they immediately chased after him.

When they saw Zhao Xun searching from room to room on the second floor, the Taoist priest and the monk ran towards the first floor almost simultaneously.

Seeing this, Xiao Lan quickly followed the Taoist priest and went downstairs together.

The priest hesitated for a few seconds and chose to go to the first floor.

The gray-haired man and Xiaolian were left looking at each other.

The two people hadn't figured out what Zhao Xun, the Taoist priest and the monk were doing, so they simply stood at the stairs on the second floor and watched.

Zhao Xun soon discovered the body of a player and set it on fire.

Another scream came, and soon a new pop-up window appeared.

After dealing with the player ghost, Zhao Xun withdrew the flame, walked to the corridor, and looked downstairs.

He didn't rush to the first floor. Anyway, the Taoist priest and monk had already gone there, so there was no need for him to go back.

In the corner of the living room on the first floor, a player's corpse was lying. The Taoist priest took out his magic wand and nodded a few times at the head of the player's corpse, and a sharp scream rang out.

At the same time, a scream was heard from an invisible location in the kitchen.

Apparently, the monk also succeeded.

At this time, the gray-haired man already understood what they were doing. He couldn't help but ask Zhao Xun, who was standing not far away: "How do you know that players will turn into ghosts after they die?"

"The corpse moved," Zhao Xun said concisely, "so I tested it."

The gray-haired man recalled carefully and found that he had not noticed whether Xiaoqing's body moved at all.

He had to admit that there was a gap between himself and Zhao Xun.

It's no wonder that Afro always calls Zhao Xun "big boss".

The four Taoist priests quickly returned to the second floor and joined Zhao Xun and the other four.

The priest's face was the ugliest of all.

He was afraid of Zhao Xun and didn't dare to show too bad an attitude, but he still said in a secret way: "You won't leave the rest of us behind just to grab these points, right? What if you meet someone wandering around?" Damn it, we might die."

"People with small tripe chicken intestines are only thinking about small tripe chicken intestines." The Taoist snorted and said back rudely, "The reason why we are in a hurry to deal with these corpses is to kill the ghosts before they leave the corpses to avoid It’s harder to catch them when they run away.”

My eyes were so swollen that it was a bit difficult to type. Halfway through writing, I wanted to close my eyes and rest for a while, but unexpectedly I fell asleep (embarrassed). Fortunately, I suddenly woke up again (wiping sweat)
