The Uncanny Valley Travel Guide

"It's the morning of the fourth day of the game." Xie Yuanyuan picked up some cheese with a fork absently, and drew a crooked curve on the plate, "Compared with the previous two worlds, this world doesn't seem to be particularly difficult. Great. People from Muspelheim don’t come out, and Li Rong doesn’t want to communicate with us more, making us feel like we’re playing by ourselves... so boring.”

"I don't know who the person who was scared to cry the day before yesterday was." Du Zijun glanced at him, "Now he's starting to dislike being bored again? Also, don't play with food, someone is watching you."

Xie Yuanyuan straightened up hastily: "Oh."

Wen Zheliu squeezed his chin and looked at the empty table opposite - the people from the fire of the world didn't come here for breakfast today, "How did they plan it... I can't figure it out. They agreed to compete, but after they came in , we rarely even see Li Rong's face, it's really strange."

"The cards we can play on the bright side have all been cleared," He Qin said, "Jenny, Long Ji, and the horn in Xie Yuanyuan's hands, I don't know how many people have analyzed the lineup against us behind the scenes Strategy, if you put aside your identities and think on the opposite side, what kind of method do you think is effective for such a hole card?"

Wen Zheliu thought for a while, and said: "No matter what, it's always right to spread them out and break them one by one... Well, it's difficult."

"Scatter the power and break them one by one. To what extent is success?" Du Zijun held the spoon, "All the props above level A are bound to the owner, unless there is another prop of a different dimension, it can destroy our hands. A in."

"But it's a pity that the alien space has been shattered by me," Wen Zheliu tilted his head and said, "For the same type of replacement props, the B file is not enough to see, and the possibility of finding an S grade is too small. The four of us alone Soldiers' combat capabilities are also quite tricky... well, it's a problem."

"So, the opportunity Li Rong got to use must have come from a large-scale group attack S-class weapon," He Qin asserted, "He avoided confronting us in the early stage, and just concentrated on completing the main task until everything was arranged properly. , he will use this opportunity against us."

"It makes sense!" Wen Zheliu suddenly realized, "And Muspelheim took on the role of delivering the item, so he must be the first to know the details of this S-level item, so they also hid. Li Rong wants to be a praying mantis... They want to be orioles?"

"But we are not cicadas, and S-class is not so easy to control." He Qin smiled casually, as if not worried at all, "Muspelheim—or the holy nun behind them, wants to put Li Rong When explosives come to blow us up, it's a pity, do you know about explosives, and in the end you have to be smashed to pieces?"

Xie Yuanyuan couldn't help but said: "Then we still have to wait for passive defense?"

Du Zijun gave him a squinting look: "There is a way not to be beaten passively: you dive in and wipe the necks of those four people one by one, and we will be free to deal with Muspelheim immediately, how about it?"

"..." Xie Yuanyuan widened his eyes in horror, thought for a while, and shook his head hesitantly: "I, um, I..."

"Okay, I know you can't do it," Du Zijun sneered, "I don't expect you to do this kind of dirty work."

"Then we are now facing a very...very strange situation," Wen Zheliu said, "Because we know part of the plot in advance, the difficulty of the main mission is not very high right now, and we can even guess what we should know. It's almost there; but we need to trip each other up... Well, the main reason is that we haven't done this before..."

"Let's focus on the main mission and finding Hela and the others first," He Qin said, "Li Rong's people don't want to contact us, so we can save an unnecessary dispute in the early stage..."

"Sit and wait for someone to come to your door? This is not your style." Du Zijun said.

"Then what should we do? Now knock Li Rong unconscious and tie him back?" He Qin asked back, "Yes, tie him back, and then? How to eradicate the negative impact of the holy nun's brand on him?"

Wen Zheliu said: "Hela, Fenrir, Jormungandr, they must know the way."

Xie Yuanyuan said: "In other words, we still have to find the source."

He Qin spread his hands.

Du Zijun frowned, and said in a deep voice: "It's really impossible, just kill Li Rong right here, and it'll be over once and for all."

"Then the other three must die too." Wen Zheliu said immediately, "Unless you want to blame Muspelheim."

"What's wrong?" Du Zijun raised his eyebrows, "I've seen and done too much of this kind of work by framing and framing. As long as the timing is right, everything will fall into place. We don't even need to say a word of excuse, the parchment scroll The clues on the Internet are the best evidence."

Xie Yuanyuan snorted for a long while, then hesitated and said: "But... But, Li Rong is Li Tianyu's real brother after all... No matter how bad it gets, he must still protect her. If Li Rong is killed by us... that , what should Li Tianyu do? If so, after we go out, I won't even dare to look her in the eyes..."

Du Zijun's eyebrows and eyes were solitary, and he turned aside without showing any emotion, Wen Zheliu said: "In the end, once Li Rong died, she was just Li Rong's younger sister, a girl with a spoiled temper. It's also a disaster..."

"Sister", the word jumped coldly and hotly in Du Zijun's heart, making his eyelashes tremble.His teeth clenched silently and silently, and he stopped talking.

He Qin smiled, the silver fork twirled between his slender and beautiful fingers, and he joked: "If Li Rong still has an older brother, or a younger brother, I will definitely not be lenient."

"But as far as you are concerned..." He paused for a moment and looked up at Du Zijun, "The weight of this word is completely different, right? You still use Du Zijun's name now."

Seeing that Du Zijun was just silent, he put the cutlery on the side of the plate and said in a low voice, "Don't force yourself, this matter is not enough for us to kill the leader of the competitor."

Du Zijun put the spoon on the plate casually, pushed away the chair and stood up, "Yes, I know."

The time soon approached nightfall, and the four of them gathered at the door, checked the packages, and hung their weapons around their waists to avoid being locked by the system at that time.

"It's almost time," Wen Zheliu said, "I don't know what the pattern will be tonight..."

Standing on the long corridor outside the door, he turned his head inadvertently, and seemed to see a corner of Ji Yuanfeng's black nun's robe tumbling at the other end of the corridor, and then disappeared.

...Even the night when the mission is about to start is avoided with No Sleep, do you need to be so careful...

While thinking about it, the familiar feeling of weightlessness descended on the four of them at the same time, and they were transported to the familiar small conference hall again, but different from the previous two nights, this time there was a huge projection in the place where they broke through the level. Screen.

"...What is this?" Xie Yuanyuan approached confusedly, "Why is it the same as Haihe?"

Wen Zheliu poked the smooth and thin screen with his finger, and said, "It seems that the game mechanism has changed a lot tonight..."

At this moment, the lights in the entire room were dimmed, but the screen suddenly lit up with white light, showing a dimly lit small room in front of the four people.Just like the position of the surveillance camera, from this overlooking angle, they can see the beds, cabinets, vases, portraits on the wall and other items in the room at a glance.

"Hey..." Xie Yuanyuan exclaimed, and at the same time, a line of small characters rolled out on the lower right corner of the projection screen.

【Little transparency also has spring: eh...】

Xie Yuanyuan was taken aback immediately: "Damn it! Live broadcast?!"

[Little transparent also has spring: Damn!Live broadcast? ! 】

Du Zijun frowned: "It seems that he will transfer everyone's words to the top, but I don't know what's the use."

"Why does it feel a bit like...the page of that kind of retro online game?" Wen Zheliu searched in his mind, "It's the kind of RPG game with some world channel, system channel, and current channel. Have you ever seen it?"

He Qin said: "When the retro trend was on the rise two years ago, this type of project was also noticed for a while, but later due to format issues, this model could not adapt to the holographic environment and could only be used as a small game. Into various worlds. However, there are quite a lot of retro stalks that have been derived, such as playful Moon, Dragon Slaying Sword, Brothers come and fuck me..."

"Hey, what kind of retro meme is the last one!" Wen Zheliu complained, "Besides, it doesn't seem like one was directly teleported away today?"

While they were talking, several dialogue boxes had scrolled across the lower left corner of the screen like swiping the screen. At this moment, a bold and black prompt bar suddenly popped up.

[Reminder: In view of the special gameplay tonight, each detective will get two chances to start again, and if both chances are used up, a teammate will be replaced.There is no separate time limit for this round of the game. If the puzzle is not successfully solved within the specified time and the specified number of times, all punishments will continue as usual.

Start teleporting the first player. 】

When the system prompt appeared, Xie Yuanyuan had already been sent away in an instant. The second he disappeared, the remaining three people saw him on the big screen.

"This?" Wen Zheliu was a little puzzled, "Is this still the same mechanism as Haihe?"

"Wow!" Xie Yuanyuan jumped up in the small room, "I can see the content of your conversation! It's great, I'm not alone at last!"

"Look at your own state first, and then look for clues," Du Zijun said, he was relieved, this is like having three more off-court guides, which is very beneficial for Xie Yuanyuan, who is weak in solving puzzles Yes, "Look at the picture frame, the drawer, the bottom of the bed, and the bottom of the picture frame."

Xie Yuanyuan touched his body, his face suddenly sank.

"Not good..." he said, "All attributes are locked, all backpacks are locked, and any props... can't be used? I have become an ordinary person's physical condition again!"

"Don't panic," Wen Zheliu hurriedly said, "Then this level is purely a place to solve puzzles, calm down first, and look for the information in the room!"

Xie Yuanyuan sighed, and walked to the drawer where things could be found most easily, and when he opened it, he saw a box of phosphorus matches.

[You got a box of matches that can be lit. 】

The message box that popped up at the bottom of the screen stunned all four of them.

Wen Zheliu: "...what do you mean, this is... why is it a bit like..."

He thought about it, but couldn't come up with an appropriate term, He Qin said: "Single-player strategy puzzle game."

"Yes! It's a stand-alone strategy puzzle game!" This term is too old, and as soon as Wen Zheliu said it, he felt that the tip of his tongue was stained with dusty old breath, "It's so strange, I only read it in the supplementary materials. Pass."

After getting the box of matches, another question and two options popped up at the bottom of the screen.

[The room is very dark, there is an oil lamp beside the bed, do you want to strike a match?

A: strike a match.

B: Put it away first. 】

Xie Yuanyuan encountered this kind of game with options for the first time, and couldn't help scratching his head for a long time. He wanted to go back to do other things, but found that when there was an option box lying in front of him, he couldn't do anything, even walking. no.

"How about I scratch one and try?" He frowned and asked.

"No," Wen Zheliu frowned, "The option that you must choose is a confusing message, which will force you to take actions that don't need to be done immediately. Could it be that this box of matches won't work after a while? Are you going to light the lamp now?"

Xie Yuanyuan was enlightened and said: "Yes! Then I choose to put it away first!"

The option box flickered and disappeared in mid-air.

Xie Yuanyuan immediately stuffed the matchbox into his pocket. He leaned over to look at the oil lamp on the table. The window in front of him was curtained. He opened the curtain inadvertently, and suddenly found a strange shadow downstairs, standing in the dark. It swayed and wandered faintly.Xie Yuanyuan narrowed his eyes again, and took a closer look. It was a humanoid creature dressed in black, with a stooped back, and an abnormally tall and thin body. It was slowly walking in the bushes, holding two bloody corpses with its huge palms. .

The night was getting darker, and the surroundings were dark. If he had lit the oil lamp just now, his window would have become a target at night, attracting countless unknown ghosts!

Xie Yuanyuan's heart thumped, and he hurriedly pulled down the curtain. At this moment, someone knocked on the door behind him.

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom." Very regular three times, six times.

[The nuns come to bring you food and water, and warn you not to go out at night and light the lamps, do you want to open the door?

A: Open the door to receive food and water, and thank the nun for her advice.

B: Tell the nun that she has fallen asleep and it is inconvenient to open the door.

C: Keep silent. 】

Xie Yuanyuan stared at these three options, his hairs were about to stand on end.

"Intuition tells me that she must not be allowed to enter the door. Who knows if it's a human or a ghost..." He muttered to himself, "But if I keep silent and leave it alone, how can I get out later? Or persuade her to leave? "

He Qin said: "You can't talk, you'd better choose C and keep silent."

"But..." Xie Yuanyuan hesitated, "I will definitely go out soon, if I keep silent, what if she keeps standing at the door, waiting for me to open it..."

"How do you know that the nun knows that there are people in your room?" Wen Zheliu asked a very convoluted question, "If you persuade her to leave with a loud voice, wouldn't it be worse if she is sure that there are people in the room?"
