Andre looked at Bai Liu with salivating food in his eyes.

Andre laughed dumbly: "I'm not full yet, if a mermaid comes here in the middle of the night to capsize my boat, I'll pull it up and bite it to death."

This man clearly talked about killing the mermaid again, but his eyes kept falling on Bai Liu's neck, as if what he wanted to bite off was not the mermaid's neck, but Bai Liu's.

Bai Liu's thinking began to become a little sluggish, which was obviously the effect of the decline in mental value.

It was only at this time that he realized that Andre had such a strong fragrance in his place, and he even wanted to bite him for a moment just now, so in the eyes of Andre, a mermaid with a significantly higher degree of alienation, he must be a fragrance with a stronger fragrance. Good food.

Andre wanted to eat himself.

But now Bai Liu's physical strength, intelligence, and even reaction power have dropped very badly. All his panel attributes have started to go red, and his mental value is already on the verge of sixty. If Bai Liu has completely alienated Andre in the sea, If the monsters confront each other overnight, he will surely die.

There must be some way, some way of fighting Andre.

But all the information in Bai Liu's mind seemed to be covered by a translucent cloth. He could vaguely see those plans, but he couldn't call them. He vaguely remembered that he had prepared a way for himself to deal with Andre. But he couldn't remember.

Bai Liu blinked again, shook her head, and said yes softly.

The group of people in front of the small TV saw Bai Liu shaking, and his heart was lifted instantly.

Wang Shun followed Bai Liu all the way, knowing that this person is a very talented player. He has seen players playing Siren Town many times, but he has never been so nervous.

Wang Shun held his breath without blinking his eyes: "He has been alienated, his mental value has almost dropped to sixty, and he is about to see hallucinations."

A large number of players surrounded Wang Shun.

The player who had been staying here with Wang Shun before also had a complicated tone: "Spirit value is 60, it's a matter of life and death."

A spiritual value of 60 is the dividing line between reality and illusion. Before the spiritual value of 60, you just fight against monsters, but below 60, you have to fight against your own illusions.

It's harder than fighting monsters.

Because the monster's weakness can be explored and traced, and the illusion is generated by yourself, you never know where the weakness of your own illusion is, and you don't know whether it is an illusion or real.

Players with high spiritual values ​​have enormous advantages in the game, that's why Bai Liu attracted so much attention before.

Players who are easily frightened, or easily polluted by the spirit of monsters, can easily drop below sixty. Dead, so the level with a mental value of 60 is also called [Life and Death Level] among players.

The audience sighed regretfully:

"It's already very good. It took so long to be polluted below sixty."

"Without the props to rinse the spiritual value, the spiritual value will only get lower and lower. I think his life is hanging by a thread."

"Although the game "Siren Town" has a clearance rate of 50%, for newcomers who don't know the strategy, the survival rate is less than 1%."

"Didn't some of the last batch of newcomers pass the customs?"

"Hehe, the only newcomer out of the hundred who cleared the level in the last batch of "Siren Town" had only 25 mental points when he finally released the game, and he went crazy after clearing the level. What's the use?"

"This newcomer will probably go crazy in a while."

 …

The sailors on the ship looked like they were watching the show, they prepared two small boats for Andre and Bai Liu, and put them into the deep sea.

Bai Liu seemed to be confused about the situation and stood dumbfounded by the fence. He even asked the sailor for an extra quilt, saying that he might be cold on the boat at night.

The sailor looked at Bai Liu mockingly, put two or three thick quilts on his boat, and said meaningfully, I wish you a good night, good night, Mr. Bai, if you can wake up.

Bai Liu smiled and said, I will.

There are many small boats attached to both sides of the boat, and those small boats are full of fishermen who look like deep-sea fish.

The appearance of these fishermen is strangely similar to Andre. In the dark night, there is only a small light on the boat, and the eyes of these fishermen under the dim light emit a faint green light.

Standing on the boat that swayed with the waves, these fishermen did not move at all. They stared straight at Bai Liu, who was standing on the boat and hugged the quilt. The same tiny vibrating sound.

Andre, who was standing on another small boat not far from Bailiu, had saliva on his mouth, and his eyes radiated the same dark green light as those of these fishermen. He looked at Bailiu and whispered hoarsely: "Bailiu, with You stupid quilt, go to sleep at the bottom of the ocean."

The big ship drove away slowly, and some sailors told them that a boat would come to pick them up the next morning.

Bai Liu looked around, besides Andre, there were many other fishermen on small boats who did not leave with the big boat, but gradually approached and surrounded Bai Liu with the sound of paddling water.

Even if Bai Liu's head is so dizzy at this moment, he knows very clearly that as the weakest "larvae" here, if he spends the night with these fishermen who are obviously still hungry, he may be killed by such a fisherman in less than half an hour. The group of things was torn into pieces and swallowed.

Not to mention that there was Andre who was watching him covetously beside him, Bai Liu was completely helpless on the sea in the middle of the night.

Although Bai Liu was still alienated, it was still not a good choice to jump into the sea and escape.

Bai Liu is only initially alienated, Bai Liu can feel that his mouth and nose can breathe, and the gills next to the ears do not have any breathing function. It is still unknown whether he can breathe underwater through the gills after jumping into the water.

And even if he could, Bai Liu would definitely not be able to swim against these highly alienated fishermen and Andre. Jumping into the sea was nothing more than the difference between dying under the sea and dying at sea.

Bai Liu also has a mission of the boat of true love. In such a situation where it seems that it is extremely difficult for him to survive, he has to stay up all night and win against Andre when his mental value is precarious.

This is almost impossible.

Wang Shun slowly put down the pen that was constantly recording, and he sighed with some sincerity: "It's a pity, to win this bet, the best tool to use is the air bubbles in the water."

"This item can repel fish. Buy two and use it three times and you can last until dawn. Although it is a bit expensive, it costs 140 points, but it is useful. If Bai Liu didn't spend his points indiscriminately before, he would pass here It would have been easy."

The player next to him who had been watching all the time also nodded in agreement, and shook his head helplessly, "Is it a novice after all? It's normal if you don't know how to play. Although this Bai Liu has occasional outstanding performances, most of the time he messes around. It's a common problem for novices." .”

"Hey, that's it for now."

The few scattered spectators who are still here will also disperse and leave.

At this time, Andre's boat suddenly shook violently on the screen, and a person landed on it, no, or a mermaid, opened its sharp teeth and grinned and bit Andre.

The audience who were about to leave stopped suddenly.

Wang Shun pushed his glasses, and looked forward suddenly: "What's the situation?! Isn't it time for the fishermen and Andre to go into the water and start attacking the players?! Why did these fishermen start to attack Andre?!"

The mermaid on Andre's boat was very fierce. It turned over from the sea and boarded the unsuspecting Andre's boat, and it took a fierce bite to Andre's neck.

Andre suddenly let out a scream, and the gills on both sides seemed to be trembling in pain.

The foul-smelling black blood immediately sprayed all over the boat, and even splashed some into the sea water, blending with the pitch-black night and sea water.

The stench of blood filled the sea in an instant, and all the fishermen let out a strange grunt from their throats, as if they were swallowing saliva, and their eyes slowly moved to Andre's boat.

Andre's place exuded the smell of food that strongly attracted them. The boats that were originally approaching Bailiu deviated from their tracks and gathered around Andre's boat.

The ear-piercing sound of chewing sounded, and Andre's boat was full of hungry mermaids. He tried to jump into the sea in a panic, but was soon caught by his ankle, and the mermaids piled up his boat.

Andre raised his hand and let out an indistinct whimper of pain, completely overwhelmed by the mermaid biting him like a hill.

And Bai Liu squatted in front of these wax figures like a big devil, and said with a smile: "I guessed correctly, you are really afraid of light."

The crowd in front of the small TV: "..."

The player who commented on Bailiu just now was so excited by this scene that he blushed and yelled, "Impossible! How can that discounted projector restore the light of the strong flashlight 100%! This is unscientific!"

"Hey, that's really funny, you came here looking for science? How many of the props are set scientifically?"

"...emmm, I just read the instruction manual of this projector. It says it is an optical projector. Other parts are very weak, but it has a miraculous effect on reflected light. At least 80% of it can be preserved."

"I don't read the instructions given by the system to step on newcomers casually, I'm a little speechless..."

"I couldn't resist buying three 3D projectors after looking at it..."

On the small TV next to it, the player who had just been praised for choosing the right prop was frantically waving a torch to force the mermaid back, while trying to read the newspaper in the hot pool, looking extremely flustered.

The wax figure of the mermaid is still approaching with a ferocious face, teeth and claws. The player is constantly being approached, as if he is about to die in the next moment. The scene is extremely thrilling and exciting.

Obviously, it is a scene that can lift the hearts of countless people, but if you just take a look at Bai Liu, it will become subtle and dull.

Bai Liu asked himself three projectors to hold a flashlight to incense/surround the mermaid wax figure like a policeman, while he unhurriedly shook out the newspaper by the hot pool and read it, as leisurely as if he was on vacation.

The wax figure of the mermaid shrank pitifully and helplessly in the middle of the encirclement, motionless.

The contrast is simply too great!

[347 people liked Bailiu's small TV, 355 people collected Bailiu's small TV, 21 people charged Bailiu's small TV, player Bailiu got 21 points]

[Player Bai Liu received more than 300 likes in one minute, and his reputation is rising rapidly! 】

[Congratulations to player Bai Liu for getting the promotion position and entering the edge area of ​​the game screen in the central hall. The number of views is increasing rapidly...]

Someone looked at Bai Liu's small TV screen in a daze: "...I'll go, this is the first time I've seen a player in the newcomer area gain promotion slots and enter the screen in the central game hall, although it's only in the peripheral area."

"I seem to be... witnessing the rise of a new star..."

["Siren Town Monster Book" mermaid wax figure panel refresh]

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state), amulet wax figure (cocoon state)]

[Weaknesses: Looking directly at the human eye, strong light exposure (2/3)]

[Attack method: hatching]

[Player Bai Liu is only short of one weakness, and he has collected all the monster books on the page of "Mermaid Wax Figure". After collecting all the monster books, the game ends and the corresponding rewards can be unlocked]

Bai Liu had long guessed that one of the weaknesses of the mermaid wax figure was fear of strong light.

It's actually pretty easy to guess.

The driver said before that some big fish came out at night because they were out of the light, and the mermaid fishing happened to be held at night. It is conceivable that most of the big fish like mermaids are also dark creatures.

But whether there is a commonality between the mermaid wax figure and the mermaid about avoiding light, Bai Liu has not easily drawn a conclusion.

So Bai Liu observed it, and he found that there were hardly any wax figures of mermaids on the streets of Siren Town during the day.

The hotel and the Siren Wax Museum have relatively insufficient light, and there are many mermaid wax figures, and he concluded that the mermaid wax figures have no sense of hearing or smell, but are extremely sensitive to vision, so they have great Strong perception of light.

The answer is almost in front of my eyes, things like mermaid wax figures are afraid of strong light.

After Bai Liu deduced this point, he tried to pursue the ultimate cost performance that he could take advantage of this weakness——

——How much light can drive back how many mermaid wax figures? How much influence does strong light have on the mermaid wax figure? How long can they be affected? If the mermaid wax figure forms an encirclement circle, can the strong light directly help him break out?

Therefore, Bai Liu conducted an experiment. He deliberately induced these mermaid wax figures into an encirclement circle, and then tried to use strong light and a 3D projector to break out of the encirclement.

Of course, there is a possibility of failure, but Bai Liu doesn't like to do things timidly.

According to his inference, this behavior has a success rate of more than 10%, so Bai Liu will take the gamble without hesitation.

If you fail, you will fail. If there is no risk, there will be no profit. This is normal. Playing games is a risky process, and so is making games.

However, his current attention is still on the softened newspaper in the pool.

After Bai Liu grabbed the newspaper, he tore it lightly with both hands on the back of the newspaper, and then it was separated.

Sure enough, this is no ordinary newspaper.

[Player Bai Liu completed the task of separating the newspapers in the hot pool, rewarding 10 points]

[Charging points 21, current point balance 31, whether to buy props]

Bai Liu nodded and continued to look down at the newspaper.

Bai Liu touched the two separated newspapers, the thickness was obviously different, one was much thinner.

He frowned slightly, clamped the thicker one, and tore it again—it separated again.

Bai Liu raised his eyebrows. He was almost confused by the reminder that the task was completed. There were newspapers glued together underneath. If he hadn't looked twice, he might have thought that he had already found all the information about this place.

This game is quite deceptive.

Bai Liu tore it seven or eight times, and the sink behind him was already full of soaked old newspapers. After making sure that there was no interlayer between the newspapers, Bai Liu quickly glanced at the contents of the newspaper.

All the headlines of the nine old newspapers in his hand were the "Missing Person Notices" reported by the police.

The earliest time tourists disappeared can be traced back to last year, which is the time when the Siren Wax Museum just landed.

At the beginning, there were not many missing tourists, and there were obvious signs of robbery.

It’s not a big deal for a popular tourist attraction to disappear so one or two tourists every month. This kind of crowded place has always been prone to crime, and it’s by the sea, whether it’s a normal thing to fall into the water or be kidnapped. These things obviously need to be reported and registered...

However, judging from what Jeff told Bai Liu, before last month, the outside world did not know that so many people had disappeared here, and the tourism industry was still vigorously developing.

It wasn't until the number of tourists and missing tourists here gradually increased, and weird things happened frequently. Last month, there were twelve registered missing people in Siren Town alone, and then a big report came out.

If Bai Liu's guess is correct, the disappearance of tourists before was caused by Mayor Harris, who loved the people like a son, and used some means to suppress it in order to continue to develop the tourism industry.

Judging from the information in the newspaper, the townspeople here are really good at crime.

Bai Liu put away the newspaper and the projector, and held the flashlight to shine on the mermaid wax figures in reverse. After the mermaid wax figures did not move, Bai Liu came out from the corridor and went to the central exhibition hall of the Siren Wax Museum where Lucy and the others were.

It is said that there is only one mermaid skeleton in the central exhibition hall, and it is placed in a tightly locked bulletproof glass cabinet. It is the perfect mermaid skeleton that the driver said they caught, and it is also the beginning of everything.

This skeleton is like a gift from the sea to Siren Town. It brought wealth to Siren Town, but it also brought bad luck, but everyone only saw the wealth it brought, but no one realized it. This is where their current misfortune comes from.

Bai Liu paused as soon as he walked in.

The central exhibition hall is a circular exhibition hall, and in the middle stands a glass cabinet like a crystal coffin. In the glass cabinet, there are dazzling white LED lights illuminating the mermaid [skeleton] at 360 degrees without any dead angle. It is rare for Bai Liu to bring Surprised eyes looked at this mermaid corpse called [Skeleton].
