Survival game: my plug-ins can stack up

Zhao Xun frowned slightly.

He didn't understand the whistle's thinking pattern.

According to his own style of conduct, anyone who threatens him will be eliminated as a potential danger.

Regardless of whether the other party's request is excessive, once "blackmail" occurs, it will have a different meaning to him.

He can accept other people's "requests" and consider other people's "asking for help" in exchange of interests, but he will never accept "threat" in any sense.

In his eyes, anyone who engages in "blackmail" behavior is not a good thing.

No matter how good this person is in the sense of universal values ​​or in the eyes of others, in his eyes he will kill him quickly.

As a result, the whistle actually wanted to satisfy the other party because the threat was not excessive, and he also thought that the other party was a good person.

It was difficult for him to understand.

Seeing that Zhao Xun looked unhappy, the whistle hurriedly reassured: "We won't be able to find out the results about the Death God for a while. Let's find out the White Cat thing first, and it won't take too long. "

Recently, he would investigate whenever he could, but obviously only the God of Death himself knew about this matter, and the God of Death rarely left the No. 1 compartment, and he did not dare to approach the No. 1 compartment at will.

This resulted in too few fragments of information that he could obtain.

Therefore, there is no need to waste anything by checking out the information that White Cat wants to know first.

Zhao Xun stared at the whistle for a few seconds, was silent for a moment, and said, "I shouldn't get involved in your own affairs, but it involves what I want, so I can't let it go completely."

Hearing this, the whistle couldn't help but become a little nervous.

"There is only one chance." Zhao Xun raised his right index finger to the whistle, "If you give White Cat free access to this information and he makes new requests, I will try my best to kill him."

"Okay, I understand." The whistle breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face.

Although he believed in his heart that Baimao was not the kind of person who broke his word, he was confident that after the deal was over, Baimao would not make any more demands or betray him.

But he knew that Zhao Xun didn't understand white cats at all, and it was only human nature to be so defensive.

Zhao Xun was willing to take a step back and give him a chance, and the whistle was already satisfied.

"Then you can continue to rest, I won't disturb you anymore." The whistle extinguished the special item incense, opened the box door and walked out.

Zhao Xun did not continue to sleep. Now that his condition had fully recovered, it was time to enter the dream game.

He went to a regular restaurant for a five-point lunch, then went straight back to the bed in the private room and lay down.

The station game of [Harmony Hospital] did not consume his food reserves, so there was no need to buy new ones this time.

Zhao Xun took out the ticket, put it skillfully into his coat pocket, skillfully spent thirty points to buy a three-day [Safety Barrier], and entered the dream game at 1:31.

After the familiar spin, his vision quickly returned to normal.

Zhao Xun found himself standing at the gate of an amusement park. There were two people dressed as security guards standing outside the gate, one standing in the middle of the gate and the other standing next to the small gate.

The next second, the pop-up window appeared.

[Main mission: Find the correct door to enter the amusement park and enter the amusement park. 】

[Of the two security guards, one can only tell lies and the other can only tell the truth. Players can only ask one question. 】

Zhao Xun couldn't help but smile.

The main mission of the Dreamland game is really not that difficult.

He walked up to the security guard standing in the middle of the gate, pointed at the other security guard and asked the security guard in front of him: "If I asked him which is the correct entrance to the playground, which door would he point to?"

The security guard in front of him raised his hand and pointed behind him: "This door."

Zhao Xun nodded, turned around and walked in from the small door.

[Complete the main task: Find the correct door to enter the amusement park and enter the amusement park. 】

[Congratulations to player Zhao Xun for earning 30 points and 30 hours of survival time. 】

Immediately afterwards, a new pop-up window appeared.

[Side mission: Players hide and seek. 】

[Players need to determine the characteristics of NPC through observation, cover up the characteristics of players, and integrate into the NPC group. 】

[Once the player behaves abnormally, the NPC will immediately enter the suspicion stage. 】

[During the suspicion stage, NPCs will test the player's identity in various ways, but will not actively harm the player. 】

[After confirming the player's identity, all NPCs will pursue the player endlessly. 】

After reading the rules, Zhao Xun immediately raised his eyes and looked around.

There were not many people at the door. They were walking in twos and threes towards the playground. No one looked at Zhao Xun specifically.

In order not to attract attention, Zhao Xun walked to a corner with slow and unhurried steps.

After making sure that there were no surveillance cameras nearby and that no one would notice him, he turned into a sparrow and flew out.

Before he is sure what his player characteristics are, it is best not to show off as a "human" easily.

It just so happened that turning into an animal also made it easier for him to get closer and spy on the characteristics of NPCs.

Zhao Xun calmed down his thoughts while observing the NPCs below.

This side mission should be considered in two situations.

Before being confirmed as a player, being able to integrate into the NPC and spend three days is regarded as completing the side mission.

After the player's identity is confirmed, he can escape from the endless pursuit and survive to the third day, which should also be regarded as completing the side mission.

After all, in this side mission, it does not say that after the player's identity is confirmed, the game fails.

It just says, "After confirming the player's identity, all NPCs will hunt the player endlessly." This is obviously not the ending, but the process.

Just like the name of this side mission "Hide and Seek", in addition to "hide", you can also "escape".

Whether the ending is good or bad depends on whether the player has the ability to survive to the end.

In other words, if integrating with NPCs is too complicated, Zhao Xun can take the initiative to choose the second option.

However, being hunted for three days and three nights, Iron Man could not bear it.

Let’s look at the state of integration first.

Zhao Xun first focused on observing the appearance, clothing and other external characteristics of all NPCs.

But I didn't find anything that could be called a "characteristic".

Since it is a common "characteristic" of NPCs, it should be possible to find some similarities in any NPC.

Even if an NPC has more than one "characteristic" and it is not reflected in all NPCs, it should still be group-like.

For example, people of the same gender, age group or weight range will have the same "characteristics".

But after an hour of observation, Zhao Xun did not find the existence of such external characteristics.

So, in the next few hours, Zhao Xun focused on observing the behavior and speech of all NPCs.

Finally, after pondering for a long time, he finally figured out something.

Every woman has the same action of stroking her hair, and she must strok her hair before speaking.

Every man touches his palms before speaking.

If it were just that simple, it would be easy for Zhao Xun to blend in.

But in fact, he also found that different groups such as fat people, thin people, the elderly, children, middle-aged people, young people, etc. all have some fixed movements.

In other words, even if Zhao Xun only needs to confirm the actions of those groups that he conforms to, there are already a lot of them.

What's more, you can't be sure whether you have missed any groups.

In addition, different identities will have different fixed actions for different people.

Take Zhao Xun himself as an example.

As a man, he will have different fixed actions when communicating with thin women, fat women, old women, middle-aged women, young women, and little girls.

As a young person, you will also have different fixed actions when communicating with middle-aged people, the elderly, and children.

As for the situation where identities are crossed and merged - for example, when Zhao Xun, a young man, wants to communicate with a thin middle-aged woman - Zhao Xun has not yet figured out the specific rules for how to act.

But from the current situation, the complexity is already evident.

However, the focus of option one is "integration". If you never interact with people or stay in the playground like an animal, although it can greatly reduce the possibility of the player's identity being discovered by NPCs, "integration" cannot be achieved. conditions of.

Then this line task cannot be completed.

After confirming this, Zhao Xun decisively gave up searching for the characteristics of different NPC identities and directly chose the second option.

However, to be on the safe side, he planned to wait until the third day of the game to reveal his identity as a player. Being chased for too long would definitely consume a lot of his mental energy. Being chased for too short a time might also affect his points acquisition. value.

After all, "the higher the completion level of the task, the more difficult it is and the more points you get". This is an iron rule whether it is a platform game or a dream game.

He didn't want to struggle until the end and only get fifty points.

Zhao Xun flapped his wings and began to overlook the entire amusement park facilities.

Prepare yourself for hiding.

He cannot maintain the state of an animal forever, which will continuously consume his mental energy.

After two days of continuous pursuit, his mental strength will definitely not last until the end of the game.

We need to find a safe place to stay first and spend the first two days.

It was already dark at this time, and beautiful neon lights were lit up everywhere in the amusement park. The number of tourists did not decrease, and it was still lively and lively.

Every amusement equipment is in use, and there are still many people queuing up.

After walking around, Zhao Xun found three buildings that looked like they could hide.

Haunted Mansion, Balloon City and Dumpster.

The haunted house is dark inside and looks really safe, but in fact there are infrared cameras everywhere.

Tourists playing in the haunted house will most likely not find Zhao Xun, but those staff hiding behind the surveillance may not.

As long as Zhao Xun's behavior is discovered, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Therefore, haunted houses are not actually safe.

There are no surveillance cameras throughout Balloon City, but in this semi-open-air environment, it is difficult to guarantee that NPCs will not be discovered by NPCs when they return to their human form.

Even the garbage dumps are monitored outside.

Although there is no monitoring inside the garbage station, it is too dirty.

Although he is not mysophobic, he can hardly stand squatting in the garbage.

Especially smelling the sour and rotten smell, it was difficult for him to take a good rest.

Zhao Xun searched carefully and finally landed in a small forest.

This area is full of dense evergreen trees, and there are no amusement facilities around it. The closest one is the pirate ship, which is not too high when running.

Moreover, all surveillance cameras are facing the ground, so if you hide in high places, you will not be noticed by the surveillance cameras.

As long as he doesn't make any noise, the NPC below won't notice anyone in the tree.

After finding a fairly strong tree branch, Zhao Xun returned to his human form and sat on the tree branch with his back against the trunk.

He took out the meat buns and water from the storage compartment and quickly finished his dinner.

Time passed little by little, and Zhao Xun soon felt sleepy.

The playground below has no plans to close and is still lively and bustling.

The screams and laughter of tourists on pirate ships could be heard in the distance.

Zhao Xun summoned the smallest dwarf marmoset: "If I accidentally make any noise, and there happens to be an NPC passing by below, just go down and brush your face so that they think it's you playing in the tree."

The dwarf marmoset squatted on the branch and nodded to Zhao Xun: "Yeah, I understand."

"If anything goes wrong, wake me up in time." Zhao Xun asked again before trying to fall asleep.

The quality of sleep cannot be guaranteed in this state, but it is much better to sleep for a while than to stay up all the time.

In this way, Zhao Xun, amidst the noise in the distance, in an uncomfortable sleeping position, in the cold environment, slept and woke up, and finally made it to dawn.

Zhao Xun did not move and quickly had breakfast.

When it was past nine o'clock, he suddenly wanted to go to the toilet, so he turned into a sparrow and flew farther away, directly giving back to nature.

Then return to the tree and regain your human form.

It goes back and forth so quickly that even the pygmy marmoset doesn't need to be retrieved.

After lunch, Zhao Xun took an uncomfortable nap.

In this way, it has been more than 24 hours since he entered the game. Apart from his average sleeping environment, he has been living a comfortable and relaxed life.

Just when Zhao Xun thought he could relax until the last day of the game, a small accident suddenly occurred in the afternoon.

Accompanied by his parents, a child stood under the tree carrying a small cage and said he wanted to release the squirrel in the cage.

Zhao Xun had just woken up and heard a sound very close below, and immediately turned into a little sparrow.

At this time, the child released a squirrel. The family of three looked up and watched the squirrel run up the tree, looking happy that it had done a great good deed.

Zhao Xun flapped his wings and was about to find another suitable tree to hide in, but saw a lumberjack coming over with a chain saw and starting to saw the tree.

The husband of the family of three took the initiative to ask about the situation. The lumberjack said that the amusement park was going to add a new ride here, so all the trees in this area had to be sawn down.

Zhao Xun: "..."

Are you sure it's not because the game doesn't please him and he's living too comfortably, adding extra plot points to add to his troubles? (End of chapter)
