Master Swindler

Bullet didn't understand what Lu Qingjia meant by 'end the game early'.

Isn't the competition system set by the organizing committee?How do players advance?

However, Lu Qingjia gave him a task: "You travel fast, help me arrange these six people to the conference room on the second floor."

"If they refuse to come, tell them to bear the consequences."

Bullet muttered: "I'm not running errands, and won't it offend people by saying that?"

Lu Qingjia smiled: "Your appearance and temperament are suitable for this important task."

When Bullet left, no matter what he thought or felt wrong, he realized later, why is he suitable for such a dog-legged task?He looks good and doesn't break the law.

But no matter what, the six heroes named by Lu Qingjia were surprisingly cooperative.

There is nothing to do if you don't cooperate. The identity of the envoy is known to players who are a little bit more informed in Infinite City.

Even if you don't know it, you can understand it after entering the game and exchanging information with other people, not to mention the strength shown by the envoy.

But the exchange student of the horror game killed the envoy as soon as he came, which made the players of the infinite game unavoidably panic.

I wonder if this terrifying player will start a war against all infinite players, and some people even subconsciously plan to get out of the castle, give up the mission, and wait until the mission is over.

But after thinking about it, I feel that this is a bit illogical. The IQ and EQ displayed by the mud master are very high, and he has a strong control over the entire game. From entering the dungeon world until now, he has never specifically targeted the player.

And he will go back to Infinity City after the mission is over, so there is no need to offend Infinity Game completely when his own advantage is so obvious.

After all, most of the intermediate players are inextricably linked. If there is only one horrible player alive after the mission, it would be too ostentatious. Using the mud to make money at random to buy stars and become the capital side, I want to reap what the players got. 1000 points are not taken seriously.

The envoy is now alive or dead, and they realized at this time that they still underestimated the ability of the exchange student. If they have already lived in a concentrated life, if they escape rashly, they may not succeed. It is safest to stay under the camera.

The six of them deliberated over their interests, and when the mud envoy invited them, they agreed without much hesitation.

When I came to the small meeting room on the second floor, I found that besides the mud angel, Sweetheart Chocolate was also there. After the angel disappeared, he followed the mud angel almost every step of the way.

Several people had to ponder the reason for this, but they greeted the mud envoy as usual.

Just about to say a few words of pleasantries, the Silt Envoy said straightforwardly: "The infinite players other than you are already confirmed to be dead."

"An angel did it."

Lu Qingjia threw out a stack of information, which contained the current missing information of the players whose identities had been confirmed before.

The envoy has hunted so many players in a row, in order not to affect the normal running of the event, it is natural to clean up the corpses.

The props and abilities on him are very simple, so these people are all currently missing.

Lu Qingjia said: "There are also your collaborators outside, right? There is a phone number here, you can contact the outside world to confirm."

"No need." A player took a deep breath and put down the information.

Although the infinite game also has rules that restrict the team from entering the dungeon, people who live in one space can naturally think of more ways than horror games.

Among the players who were supporting outside, and the six players present, not all of them formed temporary alliances of interests, and there were also companions who had a good personal relationship in Infinite City.

A female player said: "This kind of thing can be done by an envoy, which means that there are only eight of us left as players?"

This is not true, and it seems that not every player knows that there is another player force that opposes their mission.

However, Lu Qingjia didn't tell them what he meant, so he nodded and said: "This time the dungeon suffered heavy casualties, I don't want the next mission to be spent in meaningless fighting."

"It just so happens that there are not many people left, so we should be able to sit down calmly and have a good chat about the direction of the game."

A middle-aged male player said: "Now you have the biggest fist, what do you say?"

The remaining six players are actually quite strong in the middle-level arena, otherwise they would not dare to go to the front stage, but the pressure brought by the envoy's hunting has not disappeared, and then a more difficult mud envoy came.

To be honest, they are not confident enough to win the championship. They just try to get a higher ranking and get enough benefits in the dungeon. They didn't expect much from the beginning, so there is no obstacle to compromise now.

He said, "You want to win the championship? That's no problem. We know ourselves and won't compete with you."

"A few of us players unite, and we can basically influence the ranking of the game. It is of course a good thing to discuss it in this room, and let everyone spend the dungeon peacefully."

A smile appeared on Lu Qingjia's face, and he was obviously not satisfied with what he said: "No, I ask you to follow my instructions completely, and no matter what I ask, you must carry it out without asking why."

He said to Sweetheart Chocolate: "Of course including you."

The faces of the six people changed, but they didn't rush to speak. After all, the stronger Sweetheart Chocolate hadn't made a statement yet.

Sweetheart Chocolate looked at Lu Qingjia for a long while, and couldn't understand: "Why? You are so arrogant when you are dying?"

Lu Qingjia smiled: "That was after arriving in Infinite City, but the form in the dungeon now is that all of you are subject to me."

"If you want to survive, listen to me. If you want to get dungeon rewards, listen to me. If you want to not be liquidated after you go out, listen to me."

Sweetheart Chocolate said: "I noticed before that you don't seem to be ignorant of the rules of the infinite game."

"Then you may be relying on the rules of no private fighting in the Infinite City, and feel that you are safe even if you go there."

"But you're wrong. The rules are all for ordinary players. Although private fights will deduct a large amount of points based on the damage value, for the people behind the envoy, it's nothing."

"Because of some things, this rule has been changed again, that is, if other game players enter the Infinite City, the private fight will reflect the attack damage. That is, if someone kills you, then that person will also have to pay with his life."

"It seems that you can sit back and relax, but you don't know Infinity City." Sweetheart Chocolate's voice was low, and there was no wave in her tone when she said this.

"It's too easy for a high-ranking player in the infinite game to order a person to exchange his life for his life."

"So in fact, the reliance you thought and the protection in the rules are all meaningless."

After Sweetheart Chocolate finished speaking, she looked directly at Lu Qingjia.

But there was no surprise or panic on his face.

Instead, he chuckled: "I remember that the safety and security rules for other gamers were added a few years ago."

"That is to say, because of the unified management of players in your infinite game, many rules will also change with time and the current situation."

"Of course I have to thank you for your special reminder, but since I dare to do it, I have already figured out a way out, so you don't have to worry."

Everyone didn't believe his words very much, and felt that he was still trying to be brave. After all, no matter how amazing the aptitude of the mud master seemed, he was only an intermediate player at the moment.

But the behavior of the other party along the way is not like someone who gets carried away and doesn't care about the consequences.

Lu Qingjia didn't give them a chance to think deeply, and said, "You don't need to worry about my situation for now."

"But the situation you are facing now is very serious."

Lu Qingjia looked at several people: "First of all, you have to make sure that the envoys play the game alive, otherwise you who live in Infinite City are likely to be angered."

The faces of several people suddenly became ugly, which is why they were cautious about the mud.

Although the envoy's wanton hunting of players made them angry, but with the protection of the boss, if the envoy died in the instance, none of them, the players who entered at the same time, would survive.

Lu Qingjia said: "Secondly, the envoy is under my control now. Most of his previous competitive resources will be inherited by me. In addition, I have my own company's cronies. If it's just a competition, you don't need to do anything at all."

"So the current situation is that your lives are directly in my hands."

"If you are obedient, then at least I will not kill the angel in the game, and I guarantee that you will not be implicated in the subsequent events. As for the ranking of the King of Heroes Cup, I don't care about the ranking of the champion. You can report to the group Compete, as long as my order is completed first, I will not interfere with others."

"So the envoy is still under your control?" Several people asked.

But actually there is no need for Lu Qingjia to answer, otherwise why would Sweetheart Chocolate follow him every step of the way?It was impossible to rescue the envoy, so he had to ensure that his life was not in danger.

At first, Mu Shishi's words were more tactful, which gave them the illusion that he was purely arrogant.

In fact, he was caught by the throat and had to compromise.

A few people realized that the Silt Envoy might not only want the Hero King's Cup, after all, if it's just to win the championship, the initial negotiation is enough.

The six people left the conference room, and for a while they could only curse inwardly, but it turned out that the envoy was a god of plague.

Those who have a copy of him will not have a good time.Not to mention the risk of being hunted, you have to keep an eye on his dog's life at all times.

After Lu Qingjia reached a consensus with the remaining infinite players, he got up and went back to his room to pack his things and prepare to leave the castle.

He didn't have many things, just a suitcase and a cat. After the organizing committee lifted the functional restrictions on his terminal, Lu Qingjia drove back to the rented apartment.

Of course, followed by a sweetheart chocolate.

Lu Qingjia followed the cat's hair and asked, "I'm curious, how did someone like you get assigned to be the nanny of the angel?"

Sweetheart Chocolate is obviously a taciturn person, but he still replied at this time: "There is no fixed number for this, and it is also my first time."

"Who is your boss?"

Sweetheart Chocolate didn't know what happened before he came, and he didn't know that Lu Qingjia was not targeting the envoy from the beginning to the end.

According to the logic of normal people, although the envoy of the gods is not cleaned up, it is obvious that the envoy of mud is not bad in his own game, and he is obviously the best among intermediate players.

Two arrogant people bumped into each other, and it is very likely that they will not give in to each other to get to this point.

But if there is no real deep hatred between the players, many things can be easily resolved, especially on the premise that the envoy has a strong and wealthy backer.

So Sweetheart Chocolate and other players, although they know that they are under the control of others, they don't know the real seriousness of the matter.

At this moment, Lu Qingjia asked him. Sweetheart Chocolate felt that this was not a secret, so he said, "Fraudster."

Lu Qingjia's eyes flickered, and a sense of absurdity and irony could not help but spread in his heart.

con artist.

He smiled, that smile, Sweetheart Chocolate looked at it, the expression was nothing special, but the atmosphere in the car at this moment made him tense up, and instinctively entered a state of high alert.

Then the feeling disappeared for a moment.

Lu Qingjia said lightly: "This title is not bad."

The cat that was nestling in his arms and licking its paws could almost pick up Lu Qingjia's subtext.

That's a good title, mine.

But Sweetheart Chocolate doesn't know why, and has some thoughts in his heart, but he can't express them.

Fortunately, the house that Lu Qingjia rented was big enough, so it didn't matter if one more person lived in it. Sweetheart Chocolate was taciturn and had a low sense of presence, so it didn't cause any trouble.

When going to bed at night, after Lu Qingjia washed up and lay down, he stopped cooking the char siu.

Keep rubbing the bruise on his face with the pad, Lu Qingjia took away its claws, but it struggled away and put it back, accompanied by an anxious meowing sound.

Lu Qingjia was helpless: "You want me to apply medicine?"

"Meow~~"

"It's good to sleep."

"Meow meow?" The char siu refused to let him sleep, and kept arching his body.

Lu Qingjia had no choice but to dig out the home medicine box prepared by his assistant. With the birth of heroes, genetic engineering has also developed rapidly, and the level of medical treatment and drug development has also benefited. Many medicines in this world have significantly better curative effects and lower side effects than in reality. of.

Lu Qingjia bought some, intending to bring them back to reality for research, although the game stipulates that the high-tech and items that are out of reality in the game copy are not allowed to make profits.

However, some of the technologies that do not involve special development conditions and historical trajectories exist, but it is not impossible to bring them back to create gospel.

For example, some medicines with improved formulas contain common ingredients, and there is no technical difficulty in reality, but the combination order and ratio are different, but the curative effect is indeed much better.

If it can be brought back to reality, it can be regarded as good deeds.

Under the supervision of the barbecued pork, Lu Qingjia finished rubbing the medicine on himself, and then buried his face full of medicine smell on it: "Are you satisfied now?"

Barbecued pork: "..."

Sweetheart Chocolat woke up the next day to see the silt making breakfast breaks at work.

Breakfast was prepared by the assistant, and he also had his share. Sweetheart Chocolate sat down and listened to the business operations that he didn't understand all morning.

Other players enter the dungeon purely to clear the level, and it is really true that the mud makes the dungeon to be the boss.

In the morning, he listened to the other party manipulating funds, betting games, acquiring media companies, tearing up the properties of the two companies that made a move on him, and retaliating. He felt that this was a life of tens of millions every minute.

Sweetheart Chocolate suddenly felt that every second of this breakfast was filled with the aroma of money.

After dinner, Lu Qingjia stopped working and said that she was going out, and Sweetheart Chocolate naturally had to follow.

He originally thought that the other party was going to the company or the hero's headquarters, because the mud made it seem that there were a lot of things to be busy and a lot of money to be made.

But he never expected that the other party took a taxi to a remote abandoned factory, and the person he saw after entering was actually a poisonous person that is very common among extreme gamers.

Sweetheart Chocolate immediately became alert. He suspected that this was a trick set up by the mud envoy to kill him.

But the poisonous skin man was obviously not so nervous, he said: "You also brought an infinite player?"

Lu Qingjia said hello, pointed to Sweetheart Chocolate and said, "He is very powerful, he does things unambiguously, and he is not very curious, so he is very useful."

Sweetheart Chocolate: "..."

Is the silt envoy really unceremoniously treating him as a thug?

The poisonous skinman didn't question it, and waved to them: "Let's go."

The abandoned factory is only on the surface, and there is a huge underground space under the secret passage. Below it is a very distinctive metal punk style decoration. There are several people around the messy workbench, pointing and saying something to a pile of blueprints.

Sweetheart Chocolate saw that there was more than one extreme player.

Seeing the poisonous leather man bring Lu Qingjia and the others down, he said with a compliment or a mockery: "Sludge envoy and sweetheart chocolate? I have heard of you for a long time."

"Especially the Slime Envoy, yesterday's wonderful performance was really exciting. When the poisonous skin man told us before, we still thought he was bragging."

"I didn't expect you to climb to the position where you can formally establish a deal with us so quickly. It's just that the current favorite to win the championship, is there anything we can use?"

"I said poison skin, you should be more vigilant, don't believe everything anyone says."

Lu Qingjia ignored the other party's ambiguity, and glanced at the blueprints on the table. They were the layout of the final venue, water and electricity diagrams, spatial construction diagrams, and some secret passage networks that were unknown to outsiders.

He smiled: "The preparation is very meticulous."

The player who spoke just now quickly rolled up the blueprint, and flipped over the plans on the mobile whiteboard with a slap.

Looking at Lu Qingjia, he said with a smile: "Don't blame me for being stingy, you two have followed the rules of the game to pass the level, and there is no serious problem. I really don't see the necessity and sincerity of cooperating with us."

He said to the poisonous skin: "I'd rather believe that what he gave you at the beginning is now a handle, so I can find a way to get it back, so as not to be disqualified."

Lu Qingjia shrugged, ignoring the staring eyes of several people, but directly said: "Anyway, the action that will fail, it doesn't matter whether you look at it or not."

"What do you mean?" Someone even made a state of preparation.

They were not sure what Lu Qingjia meant, whether there was a major loophole in their plan, or to solve them directly from the source.

Lu Qingjia said: "Who did you contact?"

If you want to destroy the King of Heroes Cup, a few players of extreme single-product games will definitely not be able to. After all, there are so many heroes at the scene, and the security is also very strict.

Although the task of extreme players is simpler-after all, it is far easier to destroy something than to facilitate it.

But their numbers are much smaller than the players of the other side, so the game will definitely give them an advantage enough to even out the gap.

"You have a small number of people, so it is not suitable to act rashly. After the players in the early competition fight each other to reduce the number to a certain level, the combat power of the two sides will be balanced."

"But behind the hero side there are associations, brokerage companies, and the entire light camp. In this world, NPCs can control the progress of the player's missions. They can directly compete with players based on strength alone. Your interests are opposed to the entire hero industry chain. Just waiting for the number of players in the competition to decrease does not actually change your disadvantages at all."

"The game will definitely not set up such seriously unbalanced rules, so even if only a few of you appear in front of me, in fact, your identities should have a natural alliance from the beginning of the game."

The faces of several extreme players changed, and they looked at the poisonous skin man.Although the poisonous skin man was not so surprised, his face was also very serious.

He shook his head, indicating that he didn't tell the other party these things.

Obviously, after entering the game for less than a day, one can notice that there are two factions in this dungeon, and find out who he said to trade with, and deduce that these are nothing at all.

A rock man whose skin color was a bit like granite sneered and said, "As expected of someone who killed the angel, it's hard to deal with."

"What's next? Do you want to find out the organization behind us and catch them all in one go, so as to add to your game evaluation?"

"Is there any use for things that can be dug out by a computer?" Lu Qingjia said: "Do you think that the opposition forces are all pure-hearted and will not go online?"

"It's nothing more than a three-party camp. One is the rabble who seek profit in chaotic violence, which is purely muddy water; the other is those who are burdened by the system or hate heroes; the third is idealists who are deeply aware of the deformity and distortion of today's hero industry. There are also some shit-stirring characters with foreign strength."

"It's basically these categories, and your identities when you enter the game should be people in different organizations who can directly determine the course of action."

"But I'll tell you now that your actions will end in failure, and there is absolutely no possibility of a comeback." Lu Qingjia said firmly.

Not to mention the rock people, even the poisonous skin people who came into direct contact with Lu Qingjia didn't look good.

Because since Lu Qingjia can tell their hole cards in one sentence, he must know that if such a lineup is carefully designed, the chances of winning are not small, especially when all the heroes and players compete to the end and are exhausted.

Lu Qingjia smiled: "Since you can become exchange students, you must have thoughtful and bold thinking about customs clearance. They will not be satisfied with basic tasks."

To be honest, if you only use the basis of dungeon missions as the upper limit of your goals, then you don't know how many rounds it will take to become an intermediate player, and it is even more impossible to become a leader in other games in the same period.

Lu Qingjia said: "Similarly, becoming a champion is not the end of my plan. We are all selected from this batch. I'm afraid we will meet again in competitions in the future. There is really no need to hide our clumsiness."

"Forget about pretending to be stupid."

Then Lu Qingjia reached out to Sweetheart Chocolate, who was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was asking him to take something.

Lu Qingjia brought a briefcase with him when he went out, and there were a lot of documents in it, so he threw it to him, so Sweetheart Chocolate thought he was going to the company at first.

The document was handed over to Lu Qingjia, and Lu Qingjia directly patted it on the table——

"I don't need to say where the direction of scoring and evaluation in this world is."

"After reading what I have collected, about the establishment of the current hero industry model, who is responsible for it, where is the root cause, and how the heroes who originally had beliefs and ideals were abandoned by the times, in order to hinder the correction of this deformity , What dirty things did they do behind their backs, and how can we solve the problem from the root cause?"

"After reading these things, you decide whether to sit down or not. Both parties are sincerely cooperating instead of being suspicious of each other."

The extreme players picked up the information on the table with suspicion. Lu Qingjia's director was concise and brief, and none of the words were nonsense. However, even so, the summed up content was still several pages long.

The faces of the few people changed just by looking at the first line. Seeing this, they also took a copy of Sweetheart Chocolate, and they had the same reaction.

He didn't even know what channel Lu Qingjia used to obtain these things. If a word or two of these flimsy papers were leaked out, it would cause an uproar in the society.

After a while, the extreme players also finished reading the content and looked at Lu Qingjia with complicated eyes.

It's not that there is no such situation. As the outstanding players of the same period, they used to be a step ahead in the dungeon, and were envied by other players, but now they can suddenly understand the mood of those mediocrity.

The poisonous skinman put the information on the table, looked at Lu Qingjia seriously, and said sincerely——

"We have always been complacent in learning more about the truth. We thought that all of you participating players were attracted by the King of Heroes Cup and were blocked by your position. We were wrong."

"These things, based on our convenient identities, are not as detailed as yours, but your advantages are indispensable in our plan."

"Maybe this is the sinister intention of the game?" The rock man shook his head and said: "The two sides have set up a competitive relationship, but if they want to win a big victory, they need the cooperation of both players."

So like the angels, idiots who hunted down wantonly because there are too many players who are afraid of losing the benefits of the copy will never reach the highest reward of the game.

The poisonous skinned people stood still, and said with the most serious and sincere attitude: "We agree to cooperate with you."

"No, thank you for your willingness to cooperate with us."
