“Why don’t we gather and share some ideas?”
A tall man of about thirty-three shouted, and sat down on the ground.
The man was about 190 cm tall, with a very short, spiky haircut and black hair. He was wearing a biker leather jacket and Martin boots. His facial features were sharp and aggressive, and he had a cold expression on his face.
Many of the players obviously knew this man, and as soon as he spoke, the players who had been silently observing their surroundings began to gather in his direction.
Bai Lixin could clearly see trust and respect in the eyes of the other players.
Aside from him and Xia Chi, the two unfortunates who got mixed up, the remaining 18 players should all be above the 200 level.
There were 15 male players and 3 female players.
Xia Chi was still chagrined when Bai Lixin pulled him over to join the crowd.
The man in the biker jacket swept over the crowd, and his eyes fell on Bai Lixin and Xia Chi.
Don’t look at Xia Chi’s usual ability to chat. He was already dumbfounded at this point, and the word “coward” was written in every pore.
He was a rookie on the 25th floor, so why did he have to enter such a high-end game where there were so many bosses?
Help! I’m a bit dizzy. Can I leave this copy alive?
In contrast, Bai Lixin was worthy of having seen the world.
He was still wearing that loosely knit pure white sweater, and the black pearl pendant hanging from his neck swayed as he walked, reflecting the sun’s light and giving a little brilliant white embellishment.
The man looked at the black pearl pendant around Bai Lixin’s neck and his eyes flashed with surprise, then quickly calmed down.
His eyes were as sharp as those of a falcon flying in the sky, and his falcon-like eyes examined the two men, as if assessing their worth.
The others also followed his gaze.
Escape system: [The 200th floor is a watershed for players, and the number of players begins to drop sharply. From the 0-199th floor, a performance score of 10,000 can get you up by a floor. After 200 floors, it takes 50,000 points to raise one floor, and the rate of advancement is drastically reduced, so many players have trouble inching up after 200 floors.]
[Not only that, but for players above the 200th level, the copies change to medium difficulty, with a 10% chance of drawing the high-end difficulty. The higher the difficulty, the more that people die at every turn.]
[The system set up an entertainment venue on the 200th floor out of humanitarian concern for players. It is a clubhouse with massage, physiotherapy, SUP and other items. There is also a ballroom inside the clubhouse, which holds regular social parties. The 200th game lobby is pure fun, and many players have coupled up because of the social parties.]
Bai Lixin: [Are you saying that the copies I took before were of low difficulty?]
The escape system was silent for a long time before speaking with difficulty: [You are rather special. The copies you participated in were all upgraded to a higher difficulty after the bugs. Normal low level copies, like the one this player Xia Chi beside you participated in, are not that difficult.]
Bai Lixin: [Why was that happening?]
The escape system paused for a few more seconds before speaking awkwardly: [Don’t you know it yourself?]
The escape system proceeded to bring up Bai Lixin’s attribute panel, deliberately marking [luck value: F- (the universe deems you unlucky)] in red and bold, as if afraid that Bai Lixin would not see it.
Bai Lixin: [……]
He was the presumptuous one.
The group of people gathered around, followed by Xia Chi, who was also following Bai Lixin’s lead. The two of them were everyone’s example and also sat cross-legged on the green lawn.
The man in the biker leather jacket, “Let me introduce myself first. I am the vice president of the Sand Sea Guild, my name is Lin Jue. I am on the 382nd floor and many of you should know me.”
Bai Lixin glanced at the man secretly.
The Sand Sea Guild again?
This guild seemed to have a high attendance rate.
Lin Jue patted the blond man sitting beside him, “He’s Emil, also a member of our Sand Sea Guild, currently on…”
He paused and cast a questioning glance at Emil.
Emil, “Oh, I’m on the 249th floor at the moment.”
The rest was a matter of the others introducing themselves.
Apart from Lin Jue, who was staying on the 382nd floor, there was a man and a woman who were also on the 300th floor, and the rest of the people were all above the 200th floor.
After all the introductions were completed, it was Bai Lixin and Xia Chi’s turn.
Xia Chi’s whole body froze into a log, and he didn’t even know where to put his eyes.
Bai Lixin took over and briefly introduced himself, “My name is Bai Lixin, I’m on the 72nd floor. His name is Xia Chi, and he’s on the 25th floor.”
Aside from Emil, more than a dozen pairs of eyes immediately changed.
Which floors?
72nd floor? 25th floor?
“What’s going on with this crap again? Is it another bug? Why did you two low-end players come here? There are only 20 people in this copy in the first place. Isn’t this making the copy more difficult for us?”
A male player shouted.
Xia Chi’s body stiffened even more, and he swallowed secretly, a thin layer of cold sweat seeping out of his forehead.
Bai Lixin’s face didn’t change, “If it’s not a bug in the system, would we have come here if we had a choice?”
Escape System: [There is no bug!]
Unfortunately, the system had to carry the pot.
It’s true that they didn’t want to come here either.
With one sentence, the male player who had just shouted had an embarrassed expression for a moment.
“Forget it,” Lin Jue, who had been cool throughout, spoke up, “Since we are in the same copy, we are all comrades. Since we’re here, let’s try to get out alive together. Time is precious, let’s analyze this copy first.”
Lin Jue only gave Bai Lixin and Xia Chi an extra glance but didn’t say anything more.
“First of all, this copy says that it’s a paradise for the living spirits during the day and a paradise for the dead during the night. The scenes here must change greatly during the day and night.”
“This is an exploration type copy. Which of you have experienced an exploration copy before?”
Two or three players raise their hands.
Lin Jue’s slightly thin lips pursed for a moment. There was some impatience on his face, but he continued to speak patiently, “I will briefly explain what an exploration type copy means. So everyone listen up, especially you two.”
The sharp light fell on Bai Lixin and Xia Chi when Lin Jue said, “the two of you.” He was, of course, referring to the two of them.
Lin Jue looked about 33, but his aura was very strong. Xia Chi immediately tensed his back and nodded vigorously, like a good student.
Lin Jue picked up a few small stones from the ground and said, “Although it’s an S-rank copy, exploration-type copies are easier than other types of S-rank copies.”
“One more small question: which of you has entered an S-ranked copy?”
This time, no one raised their hands, aside from the man and woman who said they lived on the 300th floor.
Lin Jue let out a long sigh, “Anyway, it’s just harder than all the other copies. The monsters are harder to deal with, and the clues are harder to find.”
The crowd: “……”
Big boss, we know that you don’t like to give in-depth explanations, but isn’t this too perfunctory?
After placing one stone in the group, Lin Jue rubbed his head in annoyance, then looked at Emil, “You should speak instead, it’s so troublesome.”
With that, he shoved the last stone into Emil’s hand and pulled out a small dagger from his sleeve, cupping it in his hand and playing with it.
The dagger’s blade reflected the sunlight, and the cold glint was a little dazzling.
Emil who had to *catch ducks on shelves: “……”
Forced to take the stone, Emil thought for a moment and spoke, “Exploration-type copies are similar to an employee commission system. The base mission is only 10,000 points, but the real wealth is in the exploration. You can explore as much as you want, and all of them may trigger random tasks. You get points on the spot when you’re done, and the 200,000 points are split. Many players enter the copy and start walking around blindly to earn points, triggering not only tasks but also the ghosts and monsters.”
“As a result, the main task is not completed, and they even end up dying.”
“The system set up such a game mode just to make us viciously competitive. Players tend to lose their basic judgment in order to earn more points, making the combat effectiveness of players in clearing the copy disappear.”
After saying this, he looked at Lin Jue.
Lin Jue leaned against the tree trunk, and with a flick of his middle finger, his dagger stabbed straight into the opposite tree trunk, “Cooperate, S-rank copies are hard, and 200,000 points is a lot. It’s enough for us to distribute.”
The crowd looked at each other.
The Sand Sea Guild had a total of three leaders. Lin Jue was notorious for being too much trouble, but his combat power was also the strongest among the three vice presidents.
It’s better to have him holding the fort in this copy than to confront him and end up losing more.
“According to the nature of this game’s copy, nighttime is when the most tasks can be triggered. The danger is accompanied by high rewards, but it is safer during the day. Also, don’t think that you can survive after five days and five nights easily. The Night Walk of A Hundred Ghosts is at the end. You are all veteran players. Do you really think that it is just a mere feast of the dead?”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
