Bai Liu knew nothing about these discussions, his attention was quickly attracted by something else, he saw Jeff.
Jeff was sneaking under the stairs, talking to someone, and walking back after the conversation.
Jeff sneaked out in the middle of the night before, and now he is back again.
Bai Liu just had a good view on the stairs, and he saw a person behind Jeff, who was the same height and dressed as the driver who brought them here today.
The two seemed to be discussing something in a low voice, and Jeff handed the driver a bunch of colorful things, and told the driver a few words.
If Bai Liu read it correctly, what Jeff gave to the driver should be the coins of this world.
[You have inspired plot characters to hide side plots - Jeref's bloody conspiracy]
[Explore the entire plot of the branch line, reward 50 points, and the current completion rate of the branch line is 15%]
Bai Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, reached into his collar and took out the one-dollar coin with a hole in it, pointed it at the driver, and the character information popped up on the panel.
[npc: driver]
[Character introduction: Your driver, the driver who brought you and your group to Siren Town. The driver was hired by Jeff who is said to know Siren Town very well. He has a history of arson, robbery and other crimes]
Sure enough, this is also a character npc with status.
Before Bai Liu and the driver had no direct contact, the driver was always sitting in the front seat while Bai Liu was sitting in the last row, so he couldn't see the driver.
The driver didn't get out of the car when he got off, so Bai Liu never saw the driver's face, so he never recognized the driver's personal information.
He didn't think there was anything before, but now that Bai Liu came back to his senses, he realized that Jeref had been intentionally or unintentionally blocking the contact between Bai Liu and the driver, whether he chose to sit between Bai Liu and the driver, or when he was about to get off the bus. The exclamation...
What do these two people need to hide their plots?
Regarding this conspiracy, according to the currently known information, Bai Liu guessed that Jeff gave money to this driver with a certain criminal history, and he might ask him to do something for him. This matter is currently unknown, Bai Liu thinks it is likely to take revenge on Andre.
When entering the town, the driver had already said that many people in this town had no source of income for a long time, and told them to be careful.
Bai Liu thought this was a reminder before, but now it seems that it is more a kind of proud and arrogant warning from the driver, and a kind of division of prey.
He was warning Jeref that without his cooperation and protection, Jeref would be vulnerable to the rest of the town.
Of course, the driver is a townsman in Siren Town, and he is also short of money. Of course, it is also possible to rob Jeref and his car because of lack of money.
This driver probably did a lot of things to take people's money. It doesn't look like a good person, and he is obviously crazy about money. When he entered Siren Town, he threatened them with insinuations. No wonder Mr. Jeff If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you have to come down to get money to the driver.
If you don't get the money in time, you don't know what the driver will do.
Bai Liu returned to her room before Jeff saw him, and helped Jeff close the opened door.
Jeff hesitated for a moment as he passed Andre's room, looking down. Putting down a black thing on his body, Bai Liu saw from the cat's eyes that what Jeff put in looked like a big piece of fish.
Soon Bai Liu saw a pile of white and gloomy mermaid wax figures gathered in front of Andre's room.
A series of muffled creaking wax figures moving sounded in the corridor again.
For the sake of safety, Bai Liu covered the peephole of her room with a white cloth to avoid the prying eyes of the mermaid, and put a cabinet against the door, hoping to make some noise to wake him up if a mermaid broke in.
His stamina has been emptied. After doing all this, Bai Liu lay on the bed and closed her eyes.
A night without dreams.
————
The next day, Bai Liu woke up and found that the door of the closet and the door of the room were closed, but the door of the bathroom was about to open.
Bai Liu opened the bathroom to look, and found that the wax figures of mermaids that had been blindfolded and tied by him had broken free from the white cloth, and were overlapping each other in various twisted and weird poses, moving towards the door of the bathroom. Some of the merman wax figure's hand has reached the bathroom doorknob, only one step away from turning it out.
The poses of these mermaid wax figures reminded Bai Liu of the time when he was playing with 123 wooden figurines, and when he turned around suddenly, he saw that the people behind him couldn't control their expressions and postures.
The appearance of these eerie, white wax figures chasing the surge behind the door in order to come out is inexplicably permeating.
These human-like marble wax figures are stacked like this, giving people a stronger oppressive force, because their eyes are staring at the white willow in a small space with high density, which makes people feel very uncomfortable, or normal people It would be uncomfortable to be looked at by so many dead eyes.
Bai Liu closed the bathroom door, he didn't care about these wax figures anymore, and he didn't tie them up.
Because it doesn't make sense anymore.
These things are breaking free faster and faster. If you can’t find more weaknesses to control this thing, it’s a very cost-effective way to keep covering and tying it up. Maybe it will also exercise the ability of these wax figures to quickly untie .
The moment Bai Liu opened the door, a new prompt popped up on the panel:
[Player Bailiu completes the main task - spend the night in the house without being alienated, 20 bonus points]
[Current balance: 23 points, items can be purchased, do players buy them? 】
Bai Liu opened the store, he is so poor now that he can count on one hand what he can buy, Bai Liu bought a powerful searchlight flashlight with 15 credits, and there are 8 credits left - he thought about it for a while.
... I don't know if there is such a 3D holographic projection device.
[Yes, one for 4 points, a promotional discount is being held, three for 8 points, do you want to buy 3? 】
Bai Liu nodded without thinking: 【Yes! 】
As a social animal short of money, two of the most unheard words in his life are definitely [discount] and [promotion].
After he bought it, he naturally played with the 3D projector he bought.
The quality of this discounted projector is not bad. After Bai Liu entered his portrait, the projected effect is amazing. There is no inferior texture, the color is lifelike, and the characters are vivid. Almost like a real person.
Bai Liu is very satisfied with the products she bought.
But his viewers are not satisfied. It is a tradition in this game that once a newcomer gets their likes, attention and views, they will have certain requirements for this newcomer.
A group of people gesticulated in front of the small TV, sighing again and again.
"This newcomer wants to use the projector as a wax figure of a mermaid with human eyes, right? The weakness of the monster book says that people should look directly at it. This projector can only fool the wax figure of a mermaid for a while, not long."
"I actually bought a discounted projector. This thing looks high-end, but it's useless! Otherwise, it wouldn't be a slow-selling product that no one would buy for a point! What is this newcomer thinking!"
"...Yes, this projector was on sale when I came in, and now it's still on sale after so many years..."
"Fuck! The 23 points are obviously the highest points in the novice area so far, so they were all wasted. I didn't buy a single useful thing! Are you out of your mind?!"
Suddenly, a player shouted in surprise in front of a small screen: "Come here!! There is a novice here who bought a flame torch! This thing beats the mermaid, he is stable!"
The crowd left Bai Liu's small TV screen in a clatter, and gathered in front of the novice who said he had bought the right props, many of them nodded in agreement.
"Yes, this is the conventional prop to break the level. This novice has a good idea."
"The flame torch can be used three times. If you handle it well, he should be the only one in this group of newcomers who has cleared the level."
...
There were only a few people left in front of Bai Liu's small TV.
[34 people are watching Bailiu's small TV, 167 people left]
[50 people canceled the likes of Bailiu's small TV, 44 people canceled the collection of Bailiu's small TV, 17 people stepped on Bailiu's small TV, and no one charged Bailiu's small TV]
...
After experimenting with his own props, Bai Liu went out of the room, went to Jeff's room first and called him up.
Jeff obviously didn't sleep well last night, his face was a little pale, and there were two big dark circles under his round-rimmed glasses.
And the number of mermaid wax figures in Jeff's room——Bai Liu checked it visually, and it was about the same as in his own room.
But unlike the wax figures in Bai Liu's room that he locked up, these wax figures were placed quietly in place, and he didn't know if it was Bai Liu's illusion. He felt that the wax figures in Jeff's room looked significantly bigger than his The ones in the book should be more realistic, and the face has become a little bit similar to Jeff...
There is a layer of translucent rosy under the white wax case of the mermaid wax figure. The eyeballs seem to move in the eye sockets at any time, and the expression is comfortable and natural, like a fish that has absorbed enough water. Stretched out.
There was also a fishy smell in the room.
Bai Liu went to the rooms of Lucy and Andre to observe again. He made a careful comparison and found that the wax figures of mermaids in these rooms were indeed closer to human skin color than the ones in his own room. The facial features of the people living in the room began to look similar.
And Bai Liu has a good impression of things that look expensive, so he stepped forward to look at the profile next to this mermaid.
[Siren, siren town xx year on the night of xx month x, the creatures caught in a collective fishing activity, after verification by relevant agencies, it was determined that there were no artificial synthetic factors, and they were rare creatures that grew naturally under pure natural conditions. 】
[...After being caught, it is already in the state of a corpse, and then it is sealed in a solidified liquid and kept in the central exhibition hall of the Siren Wax Museum for visitors to visit]
This thing should be a very powerful monster, Bai Liu thought.
When Bai Liu looked down at the introduction of the mermaid skeleton, the fingers of the mermaid's right hand in the cabinet flicked undetectably.
The coin on Bai Liu's chest suddenly vibrated like crazy, and countless bright red panels popped out, one after another, superimposed in front of Bai Liu like a system failure.
[Refresh of "Monster Book of Siren Town" - Siren King (2/4)]
[Monster Name: Siren King]
[Weakness: None (players are not required to explore the monster's weakness)]
[Attack method:? ? ? (unknown, to be explored)]
[You have triggered the wandering god-level npc siren king! ! 】
[The survival rate of the copy of "Siren Town" is dropping rapidly, and it is being recalculated... The original game clearance rate was 51%, and it has dropped to? ? %! ! 】
【warn! warn! This npc is extremely dangerous, and there is currently no clear weakness. Once the npc wants to kill, the player cannot use the weakness to escape. There is only one dead end. Players are requested to speed up the progress of the game cracking and escape from Siren Town quickly before the npc wakes up! 】
[It is estimated that the npc will wake up one day later, please speed up the progress of the search! 】
Bai Liu raised his eyebrows, did he... meet something extraordinary?
Bai Liu looked at the red warning text on the panel, and was still thinking about countermeasures, but he didn't know that this warning had almost scared a senior cloud player who happened to pass by in front of the big screen in the central game hall.
Wang Shun is a senior cloud player who has been squatting in front of the big screen in the central game hall for many years. Now he is squatting in front of the central screen, staring dully at Bai Liu's small TV.
Cloud players mean that they spend less time off the field and more time watching others play. Wang Shun is more often responsible for collecting players' game information and handing it over to his own player guild organization.
But after watching the game video for so long, it was the first time he saw a god-level wandering npc on the central game screen.
Wang Shun looked at the screen, and after confirming twice, he said in a daze:
"Am I not mistaken?! This... is that god-level wandering npc, right?! Who is so unlucky to have entered a copy of a god-level wandering npc..."
In the whole system, there are tens of thousands of horror games, and these horror games are all independent copies of the game.
The npcs and monsters in each game are different and fixed, just like different games displayed on a game store, without interfering with each other.
The game process of players entering each copy of the game is independent, and they will not scurry around and merge with each other.
But at some point, a strange wandering npc appeared.
This npc will randomly appear in every copy of the horror game, shuttle around the game unreasonably, and even possess one of the monsters inside, transforming this monster from an ordinary monster into a god-level monster with great lethality The monster caused many players to complain endlessly. Every time they entered the game, they were trembling, afraid of triggering this god-level wandering npc.
However, the trigger probability of this npc is actually very low. Wang Shun has watched [small TV] for many years, and has never seen anyone trigger this god-level wandering npc.
But it is also because the lethality of this god-level wandering npc is quite huge. Usually, the entire team will be wiped out instantly when it appears, and all players will die before the audience can see it. Therefore, there are many rumors about the god-level wandering npc. But there is very little information. Once it appears, for cloud players like Wang Shun, it will be the top information!
If you collect all the information, maybe you can still sell points!
Wang Shun became absorbed in an instant. Today, he squatted in front of the little TV like Bai Liu and did not leave!
But what's amazing is that such an explosive game video featuring a god-level npc is actually on the edge of the central screen. If it wasn't for Wang Shun's habit of scanning the entire screen carefully, he would have seen this small screen full of red. Warning, you might miss it.
"Is the system's algorithm wrong?" Wang Shunshou muttered to himself in front of Bailiu's screen, "This kind of video shouldn't be in such a marginal position, this player is doing very well, the first page of the monster book It's time to collect them all, and seeing that the wandering god-level npcs are so calm, and there is no passive game, this psychological quality is amazing..."
As he spoke, he clicked on his game manager, inquired about the player information behind Bai Liu, a small TV, and then slowly opened his eyes wide:
"...This is actually a rookie playing the game for the first time?! Seriously?!"
—————
[Game Forum——Has anyone seen the newcomer player on the central screen who just got promoted from the rookie area? 】
1l: I was promoted in the first game, yes! Will he be the Rising Star of the Year in this year's standings?
2l: Impossible, this person must be cold, I was watching his small TV, he was so unlucky, he spawned a god-level wandering npc, this is probably the last game of his life.
3l: He was very good in the rookie area before, why is it so wrong... But he is really good, so he doesn't necessarily have to die, right?
4l: Is there anyone who doesn't know how to write npc as a wandering npc and pronounce it as a bug?
This npc has no weaknesses, every time it appears, the player side is basically wiped out, because I can't run away, I feel that the balance of the game has been disrupted, I feel that the system has given the name of a wandering npc to the bug that cannot be solved fool the player...
5l: Damn, I was quite optimistic about him before, thinking that he has the hope of breaking the record for the highest score in "Siren Town", because his thinking is really powerful.
6l: The highest score record in "Siren Town" is Mu Shen, right? I remember more than 1,300 points without recharging. Mu Shen is now fourth in the Nightmare Rising Stars list. This rookie can't survive this one.
7l: It's a pity, this newcomer's good looks are fine, if he doesn't die, he still has a chance to hit the top ten good-looking players...
8l: Shit, his pretty face looks like a hammer, the top ten good-looking players first look at the operation and then look at the face, okay? He must be cold this time...
………
[1 new person liked Bai Liu's small TV, 416 new people added Bai Liu's small TV to their favorites, and no one recharged Bai Liu's TV]
【512 new people are watching Bailiu's small TV, but no one likes it. It's really strange. Is it because the players don't behave well? Give the judge a thumbs up! 】
[The number of new likes is too small, player Bailiu's central screen edge promotion position is about to expire]
………
Bai Liu didn't know anything about these discussions, and just silently stared and examined the mermaid in the glass cabinet—this was undoubtedly the highest level boss in the entire game, and it was the play that clearly told him. Facing this boss, there is no way for players to escape by exploiting their weaknesses.
After waking up, there is no doubt that he will die.
Although Bai Liu didn't really like the feeling of being absolutely restrained, but Yu You said so, he really couldn't do anything about the other party.
But before waking up, this mermaid may not be able to bring a little life to Bai Liu.
Bai Liu touched his chin, boldly trying to use the Siren King to gain some benefits for himself. If he said this idea, the group of people watching outside would probably be speechless to him, saying that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
But it's a pity that he doesn't know anything. Bai Liu usually regards the Siren King as a monster npc that he can deal with at will, but it's just advanced and difficult.
In the game, there is no boss that the player can do nothing about, even if it is a monster that looks terrible on the panel.
As long as there are no bugs in the game, it means that the game tells the player that this monster is too much for people to do, and it is probably one of the means used by the designer to lure the player's appetite.
